THETE AIN 7 NO ANSWER, SIR.
preston created by it was intensified
when it became known what the syndi-
cate proposed to do the next day. Orders
and advices from the British admiralty
and war Office sped across the ocean, and
that night few of the leaders in govern
ment circles in England or Canada closed
their eyes.
The opinions Of tho commandant of
the fort were received with but little fa-
vor by the military and naval authori-
ties. Great preparations were already
ordered to repel and crush this most
audacious attack upon the port, but in
the meantime it was highly desirable
that the utmost caution and prudence
should be observed. Three men-of-war
had already been disabled by the novel
and destructive machines of the enemy,
and it had been ordered that for the
present no more vessels Of the British
navy be allowed to approach the crabs
of the syndicate.
Whether it was a mine or q bomb
which had been used in the destruction
Of the unfinished works Of Fort Pitcher,
it would be impossible to determine
until an official survey had been made of
the ruins; but, in any event, it would be
wise and humane not to expose the gar
rison of the fort on the south side Of the
harbor to the danger which had over.
taken the works OH the opposite Shore
II, contrary to tho opinion of the COM
mandant, the garrisoned fort were really
mined. tho following day would proba-
bly, prove the fact. Until this point
should be determined it would be highly
judicious to temporarily evacuate the
fort. This could not be followed by &C.
cupation of the works by the enemy, for
all approaches, either by troops in boats
or by bodies of confederates by land,
could be fully covered by the inland re-
doubts and Notifications.
When the orders for evacuation reached
the commandant of the fort, he protested
holly. and urged that his protest be con-
sidered. 1t was not until tho command
had been reiterated both from London
and Ottawa, that he accepted the situa-
ton. and with bowed head prepared to
leave his post. All night preparations
for evacuation went on, and during the
next morning the garrison left tho fort,
and established itself far enough away
to preclude danger from the explosion Of
a mine, but near enough to be available
in case of necessity.

where they prepared to lay to for the
night.
Tie letter brought by the truce boat
was read by the commandment, surrounded
by his officers. 1t stated that in twenty
four hours from time Of writing it, which
would lie at or about 4 O'Clock on the
next afternoon, a bomb would be thrown
into the garrisoned fort under the com
mand Of the officer addressed. As this
would result in the entire destruction Of
the fertilization, the commandart was
earnestly ccunseled to evacuate tie fort
before the hour specified.
Ordinarily the commandant of the
fort was of q calm and unexcitable tenn
permanent. During the astounding events
of that day and the day before he had
kept his head cool; his Judgment, if not
correct, was the result of sober and earn
est consideration. But now he lost his
temper. The unparalleled effrontory and
impertinence of this demand of the
American syndicate was too much for
his self possession. He s.ormed in On.
ger.
Here was the elimination of the knav-
ish trickery OF these constituencies ii.

pedo had been exploded in the harbor,
an unfinished fort had been mined and
blown up, and all this had been done 10
brighten him-a British soldier-in com.
mand of strong fort, well garrisoncd
and fully supplied with all the NUM-
tions of war. In the fear that his fort
would be DESTROYED by mystical bomb
he was expected to march to place of
safety with all his forces. If this should
be done it would not be long before these
crafty fellows would occupy the fort,
would hold the city at their mercy.
There could be no greater insult to SOL
der than to suppose that he could be
gulled by trick like this.
No thought of actual danger entered
the mind of the commandant. 1t had
been easy enough to sink great torpedo
in the harbor, and the unguarded bluffs
Of Fort Pitcher offered every opportu-
nifty to the scoundrels, who may have
worked at their mines through the nights
of several months. But mine under
the fort which he commanded was an
mpossibility; its guarded outposts pre-
vented any such method of attack. At
bomb, or dozen. or hundred Of the
syndicate's bombs, ho snapped his fin
gers. He could throw bombs as well.
Nothing would please him better than
that those ark like ships in the offing
should come near enough for an artillery
fight. A few tons of solid shot and shell
dropped on top of them might be very
conclusive answer to their impudent de-
mands.
The letter from the syndicate, together
with his own convictions on the subject,
were communicated by the commandant
to the military authorities of the port,
and to the war office Of the Dominion.
The news Of what had happened that
day had already been cabled across the
Atlantic back to the United States, and

Stanley Supports Salisbury.

N~S1AAOJ
LONDON, June 19.-Stanley was presented
with an address at Berwick to-day. In reply
he spoke in the most enthusiastic terms of
the wisdom of Salisbury's settlement with
Germany of the Africa question. By agree
ment five hundred square miles of territory
was added to the British possessions in
Africa. Instead of dolorous TRADE against
the prime minister, Stanley said: Now is
the the time to sing pecan in his honor. 1t
is now possible to realize the great dream
of those concerned in the exploration and
civilization of Africa from Cape Of Hope to
Cairo.''
Stanley in receiving the freedom of New
castle repeated his laudations of Salisbury,
dwelling with enthusiasm upon the pros
poets of Africa. He said he was confident
that if he could muster all the chiefs of the
region that England had acquired they
would acquiesce in the opinion that the
date of the agreement would be red letter
day in the African calendar. It would
make a wide difference in exchange for
shippers to realize profit in shipping coin
Gold bars are of known fineneas and
charged for accordingly. On the the other
hand gold coin often falls one per cent be-
low the standard of fneness and in addi-
tion there is always some loss by abrasion.

A Large Delegation from Bozeman
Comes to Butte on an
Excursion.
Freedom Of the City and q Spread
Extended to the
Visitors.
Wagon Loads OF Gallatln Valley Cereals
and Flowers Scattered Over the
smoky City.

BurTe, June Especial The visit
paid by citizens Of Bozeman to Butte to-
day was brilliant success in every par
ticular save that Of weather. The train
bearing the excursionists consisted Of eight
coaches. and was delayed 30 in picking up
delegations along the way that it was
o'clock when it arrived. There were about
eight hundred of the visitors on board, most
of them from Bozeman and the upper Gal
latin valley. They were met at the depot
by the mayor and members of the city gov
ernment, and the Butte Board of Trade, be-
sides an immense crowd of citizens gath
cred to welcome the guests of the city. Mayor
Walton presented the excursionists with
the freedom of the city, after which an elo-
Quent address of welcome was delivered by
Hon. w. A. Clark. The chief topic Of his
speech was the unity of interest existing be-
tween Bozenan and Butte, and reasons
why they could and should work together
for common good. While Mr.. Clark was
speaking, rain began to fall, which put an
end to the rest of the exercises at the depot,
but could not dampen the ardor of the gath
ering, which was unanimous for continuing
the celebration. A procession was accord.
ingly formed, headed by the Bozeman
band, and proceeded to parade
the principal streets of the city.
Almost the entire city was out
to meet them despite the rain,
and the streets were thronged through
out the entire length of tho line of march.
The Bozemanites had brought with them
several wagon loads of flowers which they
threw out upon the watching crowds They
also carpeted the streets through which they
passed with grain as sample Of the won
derful fertility of their valley. After the
parade the visitors were taken to the Ly-
ceum theatre where lunch was served af-
ter which sociability and general enjoy
ment were the order of the day. The yisi-
tors left for home about midnight.

and this was provided against in the agree

was nearly defeated in the vote on the first

pected Story to continue his speech to-day
but he did not resume and division was
taken at once. During the count there was
