HALIFAX, June 11.-There is feeling
among military people here that the pres
ence of the United States cruisers in
Behring Sea will eventually lead to trouble
between the United States and England.
From the London Standards remarks on the
subject it would seem that small spark
might kindle conflagration. An officer in
one of her Majesty's regiments said it
might be confidently expected that Cana
dian sealers would catch seals in what
is disputed territory. 1t might also
be put down as a certainty that some of
them would sooner or later fall in with
United States cruiser. and in such case
there is bound to be seizure. What will
follow such an event the signs of the times
teach.
Apropos of war, the Halifax Recorder.
daily paper, with annexationist leanings,
to-day published a war-like editorial, in
which it said: British fleets are not in the
habit of losing much time when they
sat out on pulyerizing mission. Prob
ably a fleet sailing from Halifax
could bottle up New York COM

American cousins: Get out your guns,

know not what day, nor an hour, may

Chicago Markets Affected by the Suspension
of an English House.
CHICAGO, June 1.-THE failure of Rob-
ert Warren & Co., a heavy English house.
operating Oh the Board of Trade here, is
officially announced. The firm is heavily
long on wheat, pork, lard and ribs. War
reD, when asked as to the amount Of the
liabilities, said he did not know. His
money was tied up, but he hoped to be able
to come out even. The announcement
caused a heavy break in articles dealt in by
the firm. Wheat dropped to SSc and mess
port to S2l 20 when the firms holdings
were thrown on the market, but they sub
sequently recovered. Warren 81 Co. have
been rated high, but recently they have
been specializing heavily on the wrong
side. Its former business was chiefly ex-
porting hog products. The liabilities are
reported to be 100000.
Warren was the individual operator using
the firm name. He is said to have owned
one-third of the cash wheat in Chicago, as
he has bought all along in the recent drop
in prices. The Bank of Montreal, which is
holding the wheat as security for money
advanced, is reported to have shut down
on him. Warren, when interviewed this
afternoon, made light Of the matter. The
whole thing is Offset" said he. 'Our assets
cover our liabilities. Through au oversight
the deposit of check was neglected this
morning. The matter has been balanced,
and our business will go on"

AFRICAN TERRITORY.
Probable Terms Of Settlement Between Er

Probable Terms Of Settlement Between Er-
gland and Germany.
LONDON, June 1.-THE st. James Ga
zette in an article on the negotiations now
being carried on by England and Germany
relative to the territory in Africa, says a
probable settlement will be reached, by the
terms of which the Germans will evacuate
and abandon their claims to the territory.
The Gazette further says line Will be
drawn across Victoria Nyanza one degree
south of the equator to the eastern boundary
OF the Congo State. All the disputed terri
tory north of this line will be British and all
south of it German. The action of DIR.
Peters and the treaties he has made with
the native chiefs, the Gazette says, will be
expressly disavowed at Berlin.
The Chronicle, commenting on the pro
posed settlement OF the East African
question, as announced by the
St. James Gazette, says this
the most abjeet and ignominious surren-
der Of British interests that has been
made since England abandoned her
American colonies. 1t adds: Little
is left TO surrender now excepl
Egypt. The restoration of Alsace- Lor-
raine TO France. which would have given
Europe some hope of peace, would have
been a cheap price to demand from Ger
many for such a concession"
The Daily News thinks the announce
ment in the St James Gazette is a feeler
question. Germany it says, "cOn-
main point. The British Government is
likely to be in the ridiculous position Of the
lady who, saying that she'd ne'er consent,
consents"

naval service of the United States during
the war of the Rebellion. and who have been
honorably discharged therefrom, and who

BEHRING SEA POACHERS.
The Right Of the Government to Protect 1T
Seal Fisheries Upheld

The Right Of the Government to Protect Its
Seal Fisheries Upheld.
New YORK, June 1.-THE Herald says
editorially: Two revenue cutters have set
sail from Seattle with instructions to cap
ture and dismantle every vessel found seal
ing in Behring Sea-, whether British or
American. Between thirty and forty Can
adian sealing-vessels are now in that sea.
Such of them as are caught by our cutters
will undoubtedly suffer the penalty pre-
scribed. 1t is reported a modus vivendi
was proposed by the British Government
pending the completion of the negotiations,
but this was refused by Blaine, and as
Congress has not chosen TO change the law.
it is the duty of the President to enforce it.
Practically the moduS vivendi would have
been command from Salisbury to
his semi-independent but irresponsible
agent" Sir John Macdonald, to prevent
depredatonS by his people on the fur
bearing animals pending negotiations, but
this does not seem to have occurred to
Salisbury. Senator Morgan, in an inter-
view, maintains the right of our Govern
ment to protect the fur-seal in any part Of
Behring Sea. The best modus vivendi with
a p0aeher is an agreement that he shall
stop poaching pending negotiations.

THE COLUMBUS STRIKE.
Two More Unsuccessful Attempts to Run the
Street-Cars.

COLUMBUS, June 1.-THE Consolidated
Street Railway made another effort to start
its cars this morning. The cars had pro-
ceeded but few squares. where thousands
had gathered. and the tracks were
blocked with stone and rubbish. The
women took hand in stopping the cars. The
May or was present and ordered the arrest
of two citizens who were blocking the
tracks. The situation is threatening, but no
one was injured. The employees at some of
the leading manufactures closed down and
turned out as soon as they learned that
the cars were to be started. their object
being to aid the strikers. The Mayor is
going to call a meeting of citizens to con-
slider the situation. The company insists
On protection from the police and the
Mayor claims the police force is inadequate
to the task, Ii a compromise is not reached
the Mayor states he will ask for the militia
if the demand is made by the Street Rail-
road Company.
Another attempt was made to run cars in
the afternoon, but without success. The
Mayor has called a meeting of leading cit-
zens for tomorrow to discuss the best
means of disposing of the trouble. He
states that the worst feature OF the strike
is the fact that the City Council has in
dOrsed the course Of the strikers, denounced
the company and extended other official
arrangements which renders settlement
almost impossible.

PEsTH, June 11.-During the sitting of

Delegation to-day Herr Falk declared that
the delegates joyfully indorsed the respect
full references to the Emperor of Germany
by Count Kalnoky, Minister of Foreign
Affairs, for the whole monarchy, in his re-

in high terms of the position occupied by
Italy in the triple alliance, which differed
from that of the other powers. He also
asked whether Count Kalnoky would en-
deavor to secure recognition by the various
powers of Prince Ferdinand as the
lawful ruler of Bulgaria. Count Kalaoky
said the recognition Of Prince Ferdinand,
although Of great was yet of secondary i'm
portance. Austria, he said, sought to
strengthen and develop the independence
of the Balkan States as far as possible.
She would not countenance sharper meas
ures against SerYia. He declared that Aus
