Gen. Miles, View Of Canada's Attitude in
Putting Armed Vessels on the Lakes.
''If Canada has built and armed three vessels
for service on the lakes, as described by the
officers Of the revenue marine service at Wash
ington, it amounts to a declaration of war"
said Major General Nelson A. Miles yesterday
in Chicago, abiding to the report that the do
great lakes.
II do not want to be quoted as saying that
Canada or Great Britain means war;" said Gen.
Miles. "The fact is, though, that these three
vessels are in direct violation OF the treaty of
1917, which limits the war vessels that either
our government or Great Britain can main tain
on the lakes to q certain number and limits
their gun power The action Of the Canadian
authorities in building the three ,essels de-
scribed by the officers of the revenue marine
service violates the treaty in both particulars.
England can send large fleet Of light draft
war vessels up the st. Lawrence river into the
great lakes and could burn every town from
Duluth to Detroit. And the singular thing Is that
the United States could do nothing by way of
defense, so far as doing battle on the water is
concerned, for, while we have some light draft
warships that could get through the canal we
could not get them to the upper lakes for the
reason that they would have to pass through
British possessions, and that Canada or Great
Britain would not allow"
Gen. Miles has a list showing that the British
navy has thirty five protected cruisers, twenty
torpedo boats, fifty-four gun vessels, two armed
vessels, six dispatch vessels and five armed
steamers of draft light enough to allow their
passage through the Welland canal

Mr.. ]. F. Durham. minister to Hayti, had an
interview with the President yesterday prepara-
tory to his immediate departure for Port-au-
Prince to investigate the Of Frederick
Meys, an American merchant, alleged to have
been maltreated ty the Haytien authorities.
The facts connected with the arrest of Mr.
Meys are known only in brief at the State De-
partment. He is citizen of Philadelphia do
ing business at Port-au-Prince. He was ar
rested on charge of smuggling box of small
value and kept in prison several days, despite
the personal protest and appeals of John B.
Terras, vice consul general, and in violation of
the law which guarantees to prisoners hear
ing on the charges against them. When finally
given trial he was acquitted. Minister Dur
ham has been instructed to secure indemnity in
case it is shown that Meys unjustly treated.
The Z. s. S. Atlanta. now at Norfolk, has been
placed at his disposal and will probably start
for Hayti Monday next. Minister Durham is
an educated colored man and was formerly
reporter on a Philadelphia paper

In view Of the recent movement on the part
OF the British government to get armed vessels
on the lakes under the guise of revenue cutters
United States naval officers we're recently sent
to make an inspection Of the new steel trans
portation steamers used in commerce on the
lakes. to determine if any of them could be
made effective ns light armed cruisers for de-
Tense or for commerce destroyers in case of
trouble along the Canadian border. The
steamer Ann Arbor was examined in particular,
and the report made TO the Navy Department
was that this and other of the steamers there
could be armed with light guns and would
be quite effective cruisers. They would be,
it is said, much more than a match for the
cutters which the British are constructing
besides having very much greater speed.

CHARGES AGAINST JUDGE Horr.

A Sensational Story duplicating the U. 8.
Commissioner ut Juneau. Alaska.
The steamer City Of Topeka has arrived at
Port Townsend, Wash, from Sitka, bringing .
sensational story dating back about two months.
J. H. Hoyt, United States commissioner at
juneau, caused the arrest Of c. E. Coon, =
prominent druggist, and Frank Myers, editor
Of the Mining Record. on q charge Of At
tempted murder, they having, Is Hoyt alleged,
poisoned melons that they might be eaten
by himself and family. Tho grand jury, sitting
at Sitka. thought there was nothing in the evil
deuce to warrant an Indictment and both men.
after being put to big expense, were released.
While they were absent Judge Hoyt is said
to have started story alleging that criminal
intimacy existed between Coon's wife and Gen.
King, who is in charge Of the Presbyterian
Church at juneau.
Coon heard of the scandal a. soon as he re-
turned. He promptly confronted Judge Hoyt
and demanded evidence of the charge. Tho
two had words and exchanged blows, the COM
missioner barely escaping with his life. The
latter aud his assailant were arrested, and as
Hoyt is the only magistrate in the vicinity
the prisoner was brought before him
and bail refused. Coon was ordered to be sent
to jail, and was kept in close confinement for
several days. A number of indignant citizens,
however, compelled Hoyt to order Coon's re-
lease.

LADIES OF THE G. A. r.
Eloquent Address Of the President Of d. 8.
Grant Circle, No. 4.

Eloquent Address OF the President Of d. 8.
Grant Circle, No. 4.
At the regular meeting of q. s. Grant Circle,
Ladies of the Grand Army, Mrs. Florence c.
George presided and delivered an address,
in which the history and growth Of the circle
and its purposes we're reviewed She said:
''On the 18th Of April, 1892. there were
sembled ten good and true women, at which
time instituted this circle, under the
authority Of Mrs. Margaret T. Stevens of
Newark, N. j. Our roster now records about
fifty members. This showing 10 to me Gas 1t
must be to y0) gratifying, and feel
much pleasure in extending to each indi-
vidual member congratulations on the success
We have attained In the first nine months of our
existence. But this knowledge, dear sisters,
must not make us content to rest on the laurels
we have won, or to lag in our efforts. There
u yet much work to do and must keep
steadily In mind the grand purposes of our
order and be always willing to give our en-
ergies for their accomplishment One Of the
virtues taught by the meek and lowly Nazarine
has been incorporated in the faith and pro-
fession of our order and that charity which He
taught has been emphasized by the conflict
of arms in a great nation and has left as our
heritage the widow and orphan. To succor
these in their need and distress is the special
mission OF our organization. Let US not tire
IN tne grand ana glorious work. As your
presiding officer have ever felt grateful for
the compliment paid me and for the trust and
confidence you have reposed in me- I feel
that have had the good will and support Of
every member in aiding tue in the accomplish
ment of my duties. Wherein l have proved
deficient have always found in YOU that CO.
operation and sympathy which have needed
Into the hands of my successor l cheerfuly
surrender the emblem of authority and ear
Destly bespeak for her the cordial and hearty
support you have always accorded to me- In
harmony there is strength and we must with
one accord uphold and strengthen the hands of
our officers. In all that pertains to our order
let us keep in mind and practice those grand
tenets, fraternity, charity and loyalty"
At the conclusion of this address the circle
proceeded to ballot for officers. Mrs Florence
c. George was unanimously reelected presi-
dent; senior vice, Mrs. s. s. Thorne; Junior
vice, Mrs Lily Overacker; chaplain, Mrs Mar
garet NJ. Armour; treasurer, Miss Margaret
Buckley; conductor. Mrs. II. J. Devoe; guard
Mrs Mary Meridith Niles. The installation of
officers will take place early in January.

panies. which in former days would have brought
700 stockholders with their wives and children
TO this city and made the town busy for q week,
took place Yesterday ard brought six or seven
gentlemen from abroad aud occupied half an
hour. The Virginia Midland Railroad Com
pany and the Washington and Ohio Railroad
Company each went over the form of an annual
meeting. according to law. These companies
in law are independent corporations each char
tered by the commonwealth to do specific work,
but the charges of business has grouped them
into a larger organization, the Richmond and
Dan vile system, which has. as q combination,
no charter. The formal election of officers was
made and Col A b. Andrews was made presl-
dent of the Virginia Midland company and W.
q. Oakmsn of the Washington and Ohio com
pany. Among the Midland directors are Mcssrs.
John ". Burke and Robert Portner of this VI
cinity. The roads are however. managed by
the Richmond and Danville combination.
THE TROUBLE ~ THE BASKET FACTORY
The basket factory trouble is not ended by
the withdrawal of Superintendent W. C. Hem
rickson from the charge of the mill Alice
HnneIl. who alleges that she partially dis
robed and made game of there, will, II IL I'M
derstood bring civil suit against the owners of
the wooden ware and basket mill for damages,
and an effort will be made to induce the Fair
FAX authorities to institute criminal proceed
ings against the girls who, it is alleged,
sanlted Miss Finnell. There is, however.
general belief that the matter will end in smoke.

Senator Blank was discussing with Secretary
Charles Foster the financial situation, and incl
dentally drifted into immigration and quarantine
matters. In connection with the latter the
Senator, who stands high in the democratic
party. inveighed against what he called the
inhumanity Of the quarantine people on Fire
Island in preventing the landing of the Nor
mania's passengers.
I'm inclined to believe that 80 per cent OF
our people are crazy any way" said the
Senator.

responded Secretary Foster, with a merry
twinkle in his eye.
