OCEAN YACHT RACE.
Matter of Club to Present Cup Dis
 cnssed with Kaissrs

fl VI cUsseU tshau IARtHors,s
 Berlin, Nov. 23.-Emperor William at Potsdam this morning received in au- iience Baron von Sternburg, the Ger man ambassador to the United States, and Lord Lonsdale.
 . Nothing has been arranged for the emperor's winter vacation in a. warmer climate. He has simply said that after Christmas he wishes to go south for a while. It is likely that he will go yachting in the Mediterranean.
 Lord Lonsdale who, on the occasion of his present visit to Emperor William, is acting as ambassador of the Ameri- can yacht clubs," spent five hours with his majesty to-day. The delicate rela- tions between the Atlantic Yacht club and the New York Yacht club were dis- cussed, and a way, satisfactory to all interests, out of the difficulty in select ing the club which will present the erl- peror's cup for trans-Atlantic yacht race will probably be found. Tn the meantime no decisions have been taken. At first it was said that Emperor Will
 
 cup through the New York Yacht club, without reference to any other Ameri- can organization. but the fact that Sir Thomas Lipton had previously offered a. cup for a similar race through the Atlantic Yacht club caused the purpose of the emperor to be kept secret until Sir Thomas could be communicated , with. When the latter was advised of the situation he withdrew his Atlantic 1 club offer. after a cabled correspon- dence with Emperor William, and il was decided to have the two yacht clubs manage the race. But, further difficulty is said to have arisen on ae- count of the New York Yacht clubs ob. jection to a joint management of the race. An amicable adjustment of the question, however, is anticipated, as many members of the Atlantic Yacht club are also members of the New Yorl :; Yacht club. .s. =s

It is a foot in diameter and weighs about 15O pounds.
 After the cylinder had remained at the foot of the ernbankment several hours railroad track walker took pos session of it, but up tonight its pur- pose had not been ascertained and there had been no investigation of its mys- terious interior.

Both Men soid to be in Good Con dition
 for the Fight. @

| for the Fight.
 San Francisco, Nov. 2S.-The contest
 between Bob Fitzsimmons and George
 Gardner for the light heavy weight championship will be brought off at the
 Mechanics pavilion in this city We'd nesday night under, the auspices of the Yosemite club. The men will meet at 16S pounds and both are said to be in excellent condition and confident of vic- tory. Fitzsimmons is at present the favorite in the betting at 10 to 5. He lis in hard training at his quarters at Alameda and yesterday boxed eight
 rounds each with series of big fel- lows while Mrs. Fitzsimmons held the watch. To-day he did less strenuous work. ssIsESl Eddie Graney. who will referee the coming battle after trip to Alameda to ! watch Fitzsimmons at practice, said:
 "IIis physical condition is perfect, so far as I can judge. He is big, strong
 and confident and promises to make the battle sharp, short and decisive"
 George Gardner has stopped his box | ing practice, but was on the road this
 morning and punched the bag for half
 an hour this afternoon. He says he
 feels he has sufficient strength to meet | any fight Fitzsimmons may put up and therefore it is unnecessary for him to l continue heavy training. Moreover, it
 would be dangerous thing to fool with
 his partner when the battle, which
 means so much to him, is so near.
 ''The fact that Fitzsimmons is hot l favorite in the betting does not disturb me a bit" said Gardner to-day. q ex- l pect 1t. About all I can say is that if 1 Fitzsimmons wins he must win in quick order. I don't think he will have the
 strength to go 8 distance, while the 1 longer it goes the better I'll get"

ST. PIERRE AND MIoUELoN.
Opinion That Canada Should Have Lit.
 tie IsIands in St. Lawrence.

Ottawa, Ont, Nov. 2S.-'The United States might like to gain possession of the two little French islands down in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, but the re- public would hardly make the transfer I imagine, if Britain protested against it! If they are for sale at all, the pur- chaser should be Canada, for they are employed chiefly as resort of snug glers to set Canadian laws at deff- ance."
 This is the declaration of one who has an important voice in directing Canadian public affairs. He says this country sholud make it known to Great Britain that the sale of St. Pierre and Miquelon to the United States would be prejudicial to Canadian and imperial interests.

, CANADIAN ANNEXATION.
Senator Hale Espsoss !, to Happen some
 Time.

Washington, Nov. 23.--In the senate today MT, Hale, referring to the possi- bility of Canadian annexation, said:
 T have little doubt that men now listening to me will see the time when Canada will become an integral part of the United States. If the plan is car ried out, by the most adventurous of British politicians of a colonial prefer ence, a tariff would be inaugurated be- tween Great Britain and the United States, and these English politicians will seek to set Canada up as a great rival to us--an agricultural rival. From that will arise conditions, discussions and considerations that will end in the union of the two peoples. But we do not invite Great Britain to send Canada to us and join the union. She is too large power"

VAkLIKE MOVE BY JAPAN

 SIAN WARSHIPS.
Fleet Reported to Have Sailed for This Parpose-A Hurried Conference Bs' tween Gzar,s Minister and Japaness Foreign Secretary -C Corss Makes stronp Protest to Russia.

A
 St. Petersburg, Nov. 2s.-A semi-ofi- cial Russian agency has received from Tokio report to the effect that Japan ese warships have been despatched to prevent the Russian war vessels Tsare- veitch and Bayan reaching Port Arthur to join the Russian squadron there.
 London, Nov. 24-The alarming re- ports from Tokio that Japanese war vessels have been despatched to prevent two Russian warships reaching Port Arthur to join the squadron there can not be confirmed here. It is possible that this report is connected with the statement of the Japanese journal, the Nagasaki Shimpo which, as announced in these despatches yesterday, was to the effect that Japanese squadron of twelve vessels had left Jasebo for an unknown destination.
 The fact that such statement should be issued by Russian seni-offi- cial agency is, however, regarded as significant. Curiously enough, the Rus sian newspaper Svet a few days ago expressed the belief that communication between Port Arthur and Japan had been already interrupted.
 Tn Cardiff yesterday renewed activity was reported on the part of Russian and Japanese agents with view to se- curing further shipments of coal
 London, Nov. 24.-The Tokio core spondent of the Daily Mail cabling un- der yesterdays date. says:

 The Daily Mails Tokio correspondent further says that the Russian minister at Seoul has addressed another note t the Corean government declaring that i Corea should ignore all warnings ant persist in opening Yongampho to for eign trade, Russia will take active step to deal with the situation.
 The Corean government has replied strongly objecting to Russia's interfer ence as a violation of Corea's sovereign rights. A communication to the sam effect, according to the correspondent was sent to the Japanese minister a Seoul.
 The questions arising from the affra! between Japanese and Russians Chemulpo have not yet been settled adds the correspondent.

 Something has got to be done imme- diately so that the board of finance can make arrangements for their appropria- tions for public lighting for next year
 It will not be known until the corpo- ration counsel's reply is received wheth- CT it will be necessary to advertise again for bids or not. Both Alderman Montgomery and AL dernan Chadwick, who changed their vote on the lighting contract at last nights meeting, said that they thought that that was the only fair way to dis pose of the question. Although they both said that had the vote been taken as it was at the other meeting on the two reports of the lighting committee, they both would have voted in favor of lthe minority report again,
