pressed a wish that death would come.

interval. the only intelligible utterance he
made was once when he inquired for his
eldest son. His demise had been expected
for weeks past.

THE HARBOR MINES.
They Can Be Replaced at Few Hours
Notice, if Needed.

1t is understood that General Wilson'S
Instructions to engineers in charge Of
mine fields do not call fer the removal
of all mines. In most harbors only the
mines in the main channel will be re-
novel. Furthermore, only the mines
which cannot be removed with safety
will be exploded.
1t is thought that most of these can be
safely removed. General Wilson will
instruct engineer officers that when it is
necessary to explode mines the effect of
the explosions should be carefully
watched in order that comparative
showing of the effectiveness of the mines
may be noted. Every mine taken in
good condition will be held in readiness
to be put down again on few hours
notice, and for everyone exploded new
one will be prepared and held in reserve.
The total expenditure of the govern
ment in preparing and planting mines
was about $2,0OO,Oo0.

BOURGOGNE INVESTIGATION.

Halifax, N. S., July 14.-The investi-
CATION into the collision between the
steamship La Bourgogne and the ship
Cromartyshire, was continued today be-
second officer of the ship, who was on
duty from midnight to in the morning,
before the accident, heard the on-com-
ing steamers whistle and got out of bed
just In time to see the collision. Nothing
new was elicited from the witness. The
third officer, ALT Stewart who was on
duty when the collision occurred, was
then put on the stand. 9V4
VIM. Haley, the lookout on the Crom-
artyshire, was called In the afternoonT
Before the accident he heard steamer
Whistle--seVen or eight blasts-each one
apparently nearer than its predecessor, a
little more toward the bow. He kept
his fog horn going, sounding twice to
each blast by the steamer. The first off
Ger came up and told him to make his
blasts shorter. The jib-boom of the Crom-
artysh1re, when the collision came,
| raked the steamers bridge. Probably 20
seconds elapsed from the time he first
sighted the steamer till he lost sight of
her. He could see the steamers tunnels,
which were red. He did not observe her
stern. The steamer appeared to him to
be going between 16 and 90 knots an
hour. He saw several men standing on
the steamers deck forward and two on
the bridge The men on deck shouted in
French which he could not understand.
He tried to get clear of the wreckage.
The spars fell over on the lee side.
fEIn reply to a. e. Morrison, Haley said
he was native of the United. States. He
said that while one man could keep
lookout, manage the fog horn and ring
the bell. still ID thick weather there it
would be better to have assistance. The
first officer had come forward before he
was sure he heard the steamers whistle.
The fog horn was dashed to the port an
Choir. He had blown the fog horn five or
ten seconds before he saw the steamer,
which was half the length of the CromT
artyshire distant. 1t was not possible
after he saw the steamer to make any
mRnoeuvre by which collision could
have been ayerted.
Capt Douglas-"Had the Cromarty-
shire changed her course on this occasion,
she would inevitably have gone to the
bottom, there is not doubt of it. -
Tha third officer was recalled and asked
to tell what he knew of the conversation
between Capt. Henderson and the French
quartermaster. He hsard the quarter
master say to the captain that La Bour-
gogne's speed was 10 knots.
This ships carpenter and the helmsman
Will be examined tomorrow.
