MAYOR ANSWERS MINISTER
Attends Meeting of Ministerial Assoc
citation and Takes a
Hand.

Mayor Morgan attended the meeting yes
terday morning OF the Ministerial associa-
tion at the First Baptist church and after
listening TO an arraignment OF the city ad-
ministration by Rev. A. e. Burin, pastor
Of Trinity Methodist church, seized the OPP
portunity to reply to the reverend gentle
mans criticism. Rev. Buriff read a paper
entitled, Responsibility for Local Law
lessness," and quoted copiously from data
which he had secured during a recent in
vestigation OF the methods pursued by the
city authorities in dealing with saloons,
the social evil and other moral problems.
In opening Rev. Buriff said that the re-
sponslbility for local lawlessness rested
primarily in public sentiment and those
who had influence in moulding public opin-
ion. namely. the ministers Of the different
churches and the editors Of the daily news
papers. At the same time, he asserted. the
city authorities elected by the people we're
the ones legally responsible for the condi-
tions OF which he complained. The Sum
day theater and the open saloon, he said,
were a dissertation Of the Sabbath and both
were permitted in violation Of the law.
His remarks concerning the fines i'm
posed monthly by the city on fallen women
we're particularly caustic and he insisted
that the sooner the city washed its hands
OF this nefarious business the better. Rev.
Burif's remarks melted considerable dis
cussion among the ministers present, who,
while taking exception to some Of them,
endorsed them as a whole.
1 the conclusion Of the discussion Mayor
Morgan addressed the meeting in answer
to the general criticism on the city ad-
ministration. He explained that there were
conditions with which the ministers we're
probably not eonversant. One Of these con-
ditions, he explained. was that Of insum-
eient revenue derived from the 10-mill
levy, all that is allowed by law, with
which TO carry on the AFFAIRS Of the city
and provide for the FIRE and police depart
ments. The revenue derived from the sa-
loon licenses and fines in police court wa'
absolutely necessary in order to maintain
the several city departments.

PLAN TO ROB CANTON FAILS
Chinese Rebels Discovered Just in Time
to Save City,
BRITISH GUNBoATS AID GOVERNMENT
Gates of Canton Closed Since Exposure
of Uprising, While Numerous
Arrests and Executions
Have Taken Place.

VICTORIA, B. c., March Further ad-
vices were received by the steamer PAX
Ling, which arrived from the Orient, Of
the revolutionary movement discovered at
Hong Kong, where a number of rebels
were arrested and boats laden with arms
and uniforms were seized.
Several hundred recruits were raised in
Hong Kong and several thousand uniforms,
quantities OF arms, ammunition, canned
provisions and food supplies had been dis
patched to Canton. The rebels had ar
ranged to rise at a signal IN January 2s
at the beginning of tho new year celebra-
tion and waylay and murder the mandarlns
and high officials. Fires we're to be started
at various parts of Canton and the treasury
sacked.
The British gunboats Britomarl and Nor
hen went at once to Canton when the plot
was discovered. To aid in the sack of
Canton a force Of rebels under Colonel
Chon was hidden at a small city not far
distant, ready to march on Canton when
the signal was given.
The gates of Canton have been kept
closed since the intended uprising and
numbers Of arrests and summary execu-
lions have taken place. Colonel Dough-
erty of the British legation at Pekin has
arrived at Canton to make a report to his
government on the Kwangsi rebellion. The
latest news of this rebellion shows that It
has spread all over the province.
Piracy is also on the increase on the
West river. the big waterway Of that prov
ince, and three new launches with Euro
pean officers have been ordered to patrol
the river.
PAX Ling brought details OF the famine
which is devastating five procedures in
the northern part of Japan. There are in
all 100000 persons completely destitute and
many deaths are reported from starvation.
