to-day. B. Harris, whose merchandise
store was destroyed by FIRE January ID, 1880,

fire, the city having failed to provide horses
to haul the apparatus. In neRlecting to
provide horses for this purpose the plaintiff
alleges that the city was responsible for the
loss of his goods, hence the suit. If this
suit is successful several other business
firms as we'll as insurance companies. who
suffered loss by fire before the city authori-
ties provided horses for the fire department.,

The street railway war, which began here q

Tending the rights Of the City Park Transit
company, ordered the Spokane Street
Railway company to tear up their tracks on
Division street, on which they have no
franchise, in order to permit the City Park
Transit company, who have franchise on
the street, to lay down their
tracks. The Spokane Street Railway
company refused to obey the order Of the
council and Acting Mayor Davidson get a
force OF men to work to tear up tracks. The
Spokane Street Railway company secured
an injunction which the mayor. chief Of po-
lice and street superintendent ignored and
were arrested by the sheriff who, in turn.
was arrested by the chief of police. The
sheriff's posse carried the day, however, and
the city filed demurrer to the injunction.
The case was argued three weeks ago to-
day. Judge Kinnaird rendered a decision
sustaining the demurrer. The Spokane
Street Railway company at once appealed
to the supreme court. Judge Kin
naird ordered the injunction to re-
main in force pending the appeal, but as
soon as Street Commissioner Swingler
heard the demurrer had been sustained he
set force of men to work tearing up the
tracks of the Spokane company. In this
pastlme he was soon stopped by the sheriff.
Employees of the Spokane company then

rested by the police. Things are now in
statu quo, q large number of policemen
being in possession of the scene Of the late
operations. Officers Of the street railway
company say they will replace the track to-
morrow. The city authorities say they
won't, and lively times are expected.

VICTORIA, B. c., July 18.-The Britis b
gunboat Warspite, the flag ship of the
North Pacific squadron, with Rear Admiral
Latham on board. arrived here yesterday.
The admiral was interviewed in regard to
the suggestive movement of war ships to
protect Canadian vessels in Behring Sea.
The admiral had not yet had an oppor-
tunity to complete the perusal os the mass
of correspondence that awaited him here.
but stated emphatically that he had as yet
received no instructions to send any of the
fleet to the north to protect British vessels
from seizure by American cutters, or retake
any that might be seized in Behring Sea.
He considered the matter principally, from
what he read of it in the press. as purely
one for diplomatic negotiations. He had
vet to learn what new phase had presented
itself that would suggest the possibility OF
war ships being required to take q hand in
the adjustment of the difficulty.
