in the opposite direction, the waves
receding from the shore, but later, az
the storm changed again, the waves
meeting in the middle of the gulf and
causing the greatest disturbance ever
known there.
Vessels from Cuba arrived here to-
day say that it was the worst storm
ever known in their experience, the
waves rolling over the vessel, and all

He pointed to the Alabama claims,
the Trent affair, the Alaskan boundary,
the placing of an embargo on Cana
dian cattle, the aiding of immigration
to South Africa and other cases, to
show that Britain was always ready to

declared that he agreed with Mr.. Bou-
rassa, altho he had never done so be-
fore. He accused Britain of always sac
