ENGLAND READY FOR ARBITRATION.
LORD sAIIsBURY'S LAST DISPATCH TO sECIW
TARY BLAINE

Iondon Auq !G.-Iord Salisbury's last dispatch
~ SECRETARY Blaine relative 10 the Rchrng Sea
DISPUTE bears date Of August .. After quoting
from historical documents, the dispatch concludes
a, follows: "TLesc show that England refused
70 admit any part Of the Russian claim, asserted
In the ukasc Of 1921, to marine jurisdiction and
the exclusive right Of fishing throughout inc
whole extent Of that claim, from Behring Straits
10 the 5Ist parallel; also that tie convention Of
1928 was regarded 10y Dof sides as n remuneration
on the part OF Russia oi that claim in It's en-
tircty. and that though Behrins Straits were
known and specifically provided for, I"hrlng Sea
was not known by that name, but was regarded
ns a part Of the Pacific Ocean. Her Majesty b
Government always claimed freedom OF navigation
and fishing In Iehriny Sea outside the limit Of a
marine league from the coast.
"It is impossible to admit that the right 10
fish and catch seals In the high seas oan be hed
10 be abandoned by u nation from the mere ftct
that for "A certain number of years IT has NOT
right II must be- remembered that the existence
of British Columbia as colony and the develop
mcnt Of the cOOnyS shipping interest are COM
parativcly recent. - - 4.
aIf the United States Government continues to
differ with Great Britain as 10 the legality OF
the recent captures, Her MaicstYs Government
is ready to refer the question, wlth the issueo
depcndcnt thereon, 10 impartial arbitration.

LIST OF CASUALTIES.


Alton. H.. Aug. 16.-The most serious wreck that
ever happened in this vicinity occurred last night
the st. Louis, Alton and Springfield Railroad near
Clifton Terrace. This road IS building an extension
from point seven miles above Alton to the village
OF Elsah on the Mississippi River The men working
on this extension 90 out from here a construction
train every morning and return In the evening It has
been the rule TO leave stationed at the switch
when the construction train goes up at night to watch
for the passenger train which is due pass there at
u p IN. This precaution was forgotten, and when the
work train returned, as it past time for the pas
senger the men supposed that II had passed and the
work train started toward Alton. The passenger train
was half an hour late and the two trains, running at
the rate Of twenty miles hour. on a curve on
the bluff. 1t is strange that both trains did not 20
over the embankment into the river. Both engines
were wrecked, also the car on the work train
and the mail car the passenger train. The passen-
gers all escaped with nothing than bruises, but
others Jared worse. Both engineers Jumped and
saved themselves The list of casualties IS as follows
