WAsHINGTOS, Dec. 20 The full text
Of the reports Of the Canadian lake
question, which were briefly summarized
in these dispatches two days ago, Is
now accessible. The question Of main
tanning warships ON the great lakes in
contravention Of treaty stipulations has
engaged the attention Of the admins
tration since the fall Of 1891 In that
year Lieut. g. l. Garden, OF the United
States marine service. was directed 10
investigate the subject He made n
quiet visit TO Canada and last Janurry
submitted a report 10 Secretary Foster,
Of the treasury department, giving the
dimensions Of the new Canadian cruiser
Constance, which was revenue cutter
in name but in reality a warship.
The treasury department during the
past summer and fall has kept fully adj
vsed Of the continued activity Of the
Canadian authorities in building iron
cutters on the lakes. Under date Of
December o, 1899, Lieut. Garden, who
spent much Of his time in Canada col
lecting information on the subject,
made a second report TO the secretary
Of the treasury. He finds that hull de-
signs Of the three vessels recently con-
structed or now on the docks, the Con-
stance, Curlew and Petrol, show "suiil-
Gent strength 10 permit Of the mount
ing OF lI-pounder, rapid fire, Maxim
Nordenfeldt guns" The Nordcnfeldt
gun is the type Of gun, he says, which will
enter into the armaments Of these rev.
enue cutters, and add: "Ihe gun POI
sitions permit OF the placing Of two
guns, one on each bow, for an almost
direct ahead fire. A third gun position
in the after portion of each sh p gives
an area Of fire from sharp on one bow
around the stern 10 sharp on the oppo-
site bow. The rails amidship will per-
init of the placing in broadside OF small
caliber rapid fire and machine guns.
The Nordcnfeldt battery mentioned for
the Petrol aud her sisters Is more than
q match for the combined batteries OF
the three United States revenue cutters
ON the lakes-the Perry, johnson and
Fesseuden."
Discussing the fighting quality Of
these vessels, Lieut. Garden says. THE
hull dimensions OF the Petrel, Con-
stance and Curlew will enable them 10

contingency maintain an effective pa

PARIS, Dec 27.-Prime Minister Ribot
was yesterday challenged TO duel by
Andrieux The premier in his great
speech last Thursday referred TO a re-
cent book by Andrieux as the work Of
a diplomatic intriguer who was sowing
disorder Andrieux sent Proval, ex-
deputy, and Leroux, ex-magistrate, to
demand satisfaction. They saw Ribot's
secretary. He affirmed that the book
and the author were legitimate objects
of public criticism and that a challenge
ON such basis could not be considered.
Ribot later took the same position, and
declared that the code did not permit a
call TO arms for such a cause. Andrieux
will, therefore, publicly insult the
prime minister in order to bring about
o meeting.
II looks as though Andrieux now
sought TO provoke the cabinet into the
execution OF its apparent abandoned
purpose TO prosecute him. 1t should be

NEW YoRK, Dec. Ca gentleman
occupying prominent position in the
democratic party, and also in financial
circles, who has just returned from
Washington, says that the democrats
Of the senate have practically made up
their minds to stand upoe the McPher-
son resolution suspehding the purchase
of silver nnder the sherman act He
says that all but the extreme advocates
of silver will vote solidly for this reso-
luton and a good deal of pressure is TO
be brought to bear upon the house in
case OF success in the senate TO
secure action during the present ses-
sion of congress- The matter
is much complicated by the attitude as
sumed by the republican senators, most
of whom have here tofore taken II prom
inent position against the further coin
age OF silver and in favor of the adop-
ton of any method that promises 10
render the present law less dangerous.
But a change seems 10 have come over
these gentlemen and there il much
l"''h' "hathar thew can be BROUGHT
TO the support OF the Mcpherson resolu-
ton.
1t seems to be a game Of policies, the
tendency being to leave the financial
situation and all its complications over
for the new administration
Business interests here have taken
alarm at the unexpected attitude of the
republican senators and there Is conse-
quently good deal of nervousness
among their representatives This
makes IL probable that these interests,
including manufacturers, merchants and
bankers will begin the work of arousing
public sentiment in business centers in
favor Of the repeal OF the purchase pro-
vision OF the sherman law. For this
purpose meetings will probably soon
be held by the various boards Of
trade, chambers Of commerce, ex-
changes and organizations repre-
senting commercial interests in gem
eral II is already proposed not only
10 do this work here in New York, but
to extend it 10 large cities the country
over. 1t is not unlikely that within
the next four weeks a general express
sion Of opinion by representative bodies
throughout the country will be made.
1t may not even begin here but may be
inaugurated IN other cities and taken
up by New York business men later In
the session OF the present congress
II seems 10 be assumed as certain that
the next congress will take some posi-
tive action on the lines Of the proposed
policy in accordance with the pledges
made by the Chicago convention TO this
effect The senatorial situation Is
somewhat complicated by tho knowl-
