subject is Tropical Colonization. by Alleyne
Ireland (Macmillans). The writer has spent

After discussing the various forms Of government

The author Of this book now goes back and dis
cusses the early attempts to form settlements on
the Amur River. Those incidents have little
connection with the contemporary expansion in
the rest Of Siberia Tho Amur settlements were
not permanent. being renowned by the treaty OF
NcrtChinsk. concluded in Angus. 1885, between
Russia and China. II was only in the middle Of
the nineteenth century under altered conditions
after 100 years Of inactivity, that the St Peters
burg Government seconded the aspirations OF its
people and carried out the plans Of the bold C. s.
sack pioneers When the Russians came in con-
tact with the Buriats, who dwelt around the lower
end Of Lake Baikal. they heard. of course. of the
existence Of a large river to the south. traversing
a large, warm. fertile region. The name of the
river varied according as the informer spoke of
the main stream, or OF one Of its numerous large
tributaries In June. l643, Poyarkof. the Sec
rotary of the Noivode, or Governor OF Yakutsk
led an expedition southwark. and in the spring Of
the following year, reached tho Amur which he
mistook for Its most northerly continent, the
Slkar, now Shuka. On the majestic waters Of the
Amur between beautifully wooded banks, amid
innumerable islands, the Cossack boats glided
swiftly eastward The shores were inhabited
by different races, all subject TO a powerful Man
churian Prince, who, in his turn was a dependent
Of the han OF Khitai the name still given TO China
by the Russians. After three weeks Poyarkoff
reached the mouth OF the Sungar and. a fortnig ht
later that Of the Ussuri, which also Joined the Amur
on the right. Continuing his voyage, he arrived
at the mouth OF the great river, and the Cossacks
at once began the usual preparations for passing
the winter When the beginning OF summer in
1915 freed the river and sea from ice, Poyarkof
was able to undertake his return voyage to Var
kutsk. II was impossible 10 ascend the Amur
against the swift current especially in the long
gorges; the only other way was by the Sea Of
Okhotsk which had been discovered nine years
before After three months navigation in their
flatbottomed boats, the Cossacks landed near
the mouth Of the small River lila, where they were
fortunate enough TO find an abandoned zmoyie,
or log hut, which sheltered them for the winter
The next spring they built new boats, drifted
down the Maya and the Adam and thence ascend
I'd the Lena 10 Yakutsk, which they reached on
July IL, 1916, This remarkable voyage one of
the most daring performed by the Cossacks cost
the lives Of eighty and lasted little over three
years, during which time more than seven thou
sand yersts covered. II was the most dis
asrous expedition undertaken IN Siberia, and
produced no practical results because al that time
the Russians were not able 10 esta blsh themselves

were to be taken as being of good faith.
This came out in reply to several ques-
lions from Mr.. Pillsbury Judge Hayne
had remarked that the old board acted
in good faith all through the suit and
that its members were all good, clean
men. Pillsbury asked if the same did not
obtain as to the present board. Judge
Hayne could not but say it did, and then
Pillsbury asked If then their motion to
dismiss the suit without costs was not
TO be taken as being made in good faith
1t was somewhat of a facer for Hayne,
but he explained that when the Commits
sioners rescinded the resolution fixing the
rates they did not know they had not re-
scinded the schedule as well, and there
fore they were not bound by any action
they had taken at that time.
1t took half, an hour of the morning
! session for Pillsbury to finish his argu-
ment begun last Monday. Taking up
the subject at the resembling Of the reso-
lutions establishing the rates he argued
that by doing so the Commissioners had
rendered useless the suit commenced and
continued for over two years; the COM
pany had been put TO great expense, he
said, in conducting the suit, and the re-
scinding Of the resolution was an admis-
sion on the part of the Commissioners
that the resolutions could not stand the
test of the suit, which was the conten-
ton Of the company, and that, therefore,
1t amounted to judgment in favor of
the company.
In expatiating upon the right of the
Railroad Commissioners to fix the rates
and to adopt the per cent and the %
per cent schedules. Mr.. Hayne said that
the question was not whether the rates
were reasonable or not. He contended
that the rates must be grossly unreason-
able, even flagrantly so, and must show
beyond any question that the rates were
so grossly unreasonable as to amount to
a confiscation Of the property, before the
court would have right to use its dis
erection in setting them aside. That had
been held by the United States Supreme
Court in the water cases.
The case was then submitted to the
