Slaughter Of Prisoners by spsn'srds
Steamer Subsidies OF.

-steamer subsidies OFF.
An account of an atrocious mas
sacre of rebel prisoners in the
Philippines has reached Victoria
by the steamer Em press of Japan.
1t is stated that no less than 2OO
rebel prisoners from the vicinity
Of Manila were locked in a room,
which answers the purpose of a Jail,
while the Spanish guards stood
outside and, firing rifles through
the walls of the "jail," killed two
thirds of the unfortunate inmates.
The town of Giram on the ISL
and of Formosa was terribly
shaken by an earthquake early in
March, as the result of which
fifty six persons were killed and
100 injured, while fifty houses
were completely destroyed and
100 damaged.
The Japanese Government, &C
cording to news received at Vic
toria,B c., has definitely decided
not to grant any subsidies this
year to the Nippon Yusen Kaisha
line of steamers between Yoko-
hama and Seattle, or to the Orient
al Steamship Company, which
proposes to put steamers on the
route to San Francisco. Advices,
however, state that the Govern
ment seems to be prepared to help
the Nippon Yusen Kaisha later,
although no decision has been ar
rived at with regard to the Orient
al company. This decision may
prove fatal to both lines, for az it
is the line to Seattle is said to be
losing money.
The Chinese Government has
appointed Chang Yin Huan as
Royal ambassador to represent

braticn.
The Chinese Government has
decided to order four more arm
ored cruisers, two fast cruisers
and several torpedo destroyers of
the English type. Retrenchments
made at the palace OF the Empress
and Empress Dowager are devot-
ed toward strengthening The new
navy.

ping the runaway Captain Bruhn
was soon ON the spot, aud admin
istered n severe thrashing to the
fellow, who began to yell for the
skipper to let up on him. When
asked what he wanted aboard the
steamer, the man said he belonged
to the ship lroqaois and thought
the steamer was his vessel. He
appeared to be a sesfaring man.
The captain took him by the
collar and marched him back to
the steamer, asking him if it
looked like his ship. After being
warned to keep clear of the Kauai
in the future, the rascal was let
of. He was probably one Of the
deserters now loose from one of
the big ships, and was after money
or other valuables.

About ten o'clock Saturday
night, Captain Bruhn of the
steamer Kauai was awakened by a
noise, and found someone rum
maging about in his room. The
captain made a spring from his
bunk, but got mixed up in the
mosquito net. By the time the
skipper got on deck, the prowler
had started up Fort street. A
small dog, belonging to the watch
man or somebody on the wharf,
gave chase and succeeded in trip.

Complaints have been made
many times Within the last six
months about the disgraceful
state of Brewers wharf. Men
have to work there while half
choked with clouds of dust which
sweep from one end to the other,
yet no attention has been paid to
the complaints Of the sufferers.
The government Waterman, who
sits around the greater part of
his time doing nothing, was ask.
ed several times to wet down the
dirt on the wharf with his
hose, but refused, being too fat
and lazy. Something should be
done about this matter without
delay. If the government cannot
afford to spend a few dollars to
have the wharf put in proper
condition, it could at least have
the dirt floor sprinkled with wster
once in a while.
