New YORK, May 27.-A special from
Ottawa to The Sun. says; The Domin-
ion government have informed the own
ers of sealing vessels ON the Pacific coast
that they can offer no assurance that
their vessels will be free from molesta-

in these waters they take the whole re-
sponsibility for what may follow.

DEEDS OF TRAMPs.
They Seize Town and Afterwards Burn
it to the Ground.

HI TO the
ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, May 27.-A
disastrous fire set by tramps has de-
stroyed every house in the city of Cool
idge, N. NJ, except the railroad eating
house and depot buildings. The tramps
had been lettering around town for sew
eral days and were infuriated because
the citizens had made preparations to
drive them out. For three days they had
held control of the town. Tribute was
levied on the stores, the demands being
emphasized by a show of weapons.
Finally the residents were driven to
wage war in self-defense, Their resist
ance enraged the tramps, and in retail
iation infiammables were scattered
among the buildings and set on fire.
Before the ashes of the town We're cool
posse of citizens on horseback were in
pursuit of the tramps, and lynchings are
probable. The leader of the tramps is

England Quietly Anncxing Territory by
the Aid of Rajah Brooke. of sarawaL.
LONDON, May 2i.-While Germany
aud France are taking large slices Of
Africa, England is not only looking out
for British interests in that quarter, but
also quietly annexing territory in other
parts OF the world. Rajah Brooke, Of
Sarawak who, although nominally an
Independent sovereign. is under the pro-
lection OF Great Britain, has annexed a
large new region of Borneo to his own
state, and is in a fair way to bring the
best part of that magnificent island
within his dominion and. of course,
within that Of his suzerain, the Queen Of
England.
Thus another great island. almost
continental in extent and UNSURPASSED
in the wealth of It's production, il COM
ing under British authority without an
exertlon of the imperial arm, and with
out creating even ripple In Europe.
Lord Salisbury evades responsibility For
this new annexation by claiming that
Rajah Brooke is not a British subject,
and is seizing foreign territory in his
own capacity as ruler of Sarawak,
England, however, has another reason for
wishing not to be held openly RESPONSE
BILE for Rajah Brooke, and that il that a
slavery harsher than the servitude Of
eastern Africa Is maintained in his do
minions, the plantations being cultivat-
ed altogether by kidnapped coolies, held
in compulsory bondage and treated with
a cruelty that American slave owners
would have been ashamed Of, and prob
ably not parallelcd outside of the slave
plantations of Jamaica seventy years
ago,

Russian Operations in Central Asia.

LONDON, May 27.--The appointment
of Gen. KuropatlSin to the administra-
ton of the transcaspian province arouses
some anxiety in England IA to Russia's
intention in central Asia Gen. Knmer-
off, the predecessor of Kuropatkin, was
more developer than a fighter, and he
has done a most important work in i'm
proving the condition of Russia's recent
conquests. KuropatlSin is sometimes
called second Skobeleff, and would be
the most probable choice for commander
of the Russian forces in the event of
war either with England or China. He
is eninently military man, and his ap-
pointment, taken in connection with the
removals Of the four Kahns of Merry, in
violation of Russia's pledges, and the
substitutionin their places of Russian
officials, goes to show that if Russia does
not mean to fight, she means at least TO
be in fighting trim on the Afghan and
China borders.
