him to send. according to his own discretion

letter was received at the Navy Department
Yesterday from Admiral Dewey suggesting
that this step be taken. The letter was written
after the Admiral left Manila. and was mailed
at one OF the ports OF call on the way home
Admiral Dewey said that although the health
OF his late command was undoubtedly very
good. yet both officers and mon would be bepe-
lifted by visit to a cooler climate. 1t was his
idea that the naval service at Manila and
among the islands would not be i'm paired il the
several vessels should be ordered by twos and
threes TO Yokohama or some port equally far
north.
1t is expected that Rear Admiral Watson
will comply with the directions OF the Navy
Department at once. and that within a day or
two at leasttwo OF the vessels under his ON
mand will be ordered norh. The order In
which the vessels shall thus be relieved is left
to the Rear Admiral without any suggestion
from the department. Upon arrival at Yoko-
hama or such other ports as may be selected
the men will be allowed generous shore leave.

Hearing Before the Archbishop oi Canterbury and the Archbishop

London, May 9.-An important stage in the ritualistie controversy opened when Most Rev. Fredrick Temple archbishop of York, sitting as a self constituted tribunal, began a hearing Of the charges against Rev. Henry Nestall, vicar of St. Cuthberts, Phil beach gardens, of ceremonial use of in. eeEse and lights, and Rev. Edward Ram, vicar of the Church of St. John, Timberhill, Norwich, on the charge oi commercial use of incense. Messrs Nestall and Ram will have the assist ance in the ecclesiastical trial of d number of experts on the question cf the ritual, including Rev. k. R. Perc. val, rector of the Church of the Evan. gelists in Philadelphia. The decision of the archbishops will not be binding except as to the conscience, upon any one, nor will it be enforcible, but nat, urally, it will have immense moral weight. The chief purpose of this arch episcopal inquiry is to avoid reference to the secular courts.

It IS doubtful if this estimate is up to the mark. which may reach twice that amount Notwithstanding the prcdie tons of last fall to the effect that the Canadian royalty would stop work, more dirt had been taken out this year on creeks outside of Eldorado and bonanza than was taken out in the whole district last year.
 There has been a general exodus to the creeks of men seeking work, and the trails where dumps are thiekest are lined with the tents of those seek ing employment during the clean-up.
