UNION JACK TORN DOWN.

London, July 21.-According to a
Daily Mail dispatch from Port Said
the Malacca is in charge of a Russian
midshipman. The same dispatch de.
clares that the Union Jack was torn
down by the Russian prize crew, al
though the Russians treated the pas
sengers and crew of the Malacca with
every courtesy.
The captain of the Malacca asserts
that the. capture was made within the
three mile limit.
The midshipman commanding this
prize, which has set Europe by the
ears, and almost threatens conse-
Quences mor serious than the actual
war in the far East, ordered 400 tons
Of coal at Port Said, but the officers
refused to supply the coal on the

to be permitted to emerge in violation

terms"
The Telegraph gees on to say thai
the stores of the MalaccH wore plainly
marked nth the bread arrow, showing
that they belonged to the British gov
eminent and were destined only for a
British depot. "It would be impossible
to conceive a more t~'ciEarka5le ac-
emulation of Illegally and error
than has attended the present casa."
the paper says. eff this country We =
capable under any circumstances O
tamely enduring SO grave an injury to
the most vital of it's interests and SO
great an insult to it's honor, we should
have forfeited our claim to be a great
nation. In any circumstances, we
think it may be assumed that the Ma
Iacca may never be navigated by a
prize crew to any Russian port. She
is watched, if not actually stopped, by
British w%arships and she will, in any
case, be restored to her owners long
before she can be taken through the
D~ardanelles Or navigated to Libau.
No Retreat Nor Flinching.
"This emergency, in some respects,
Is the most critical that has marked
our relations with Russia in the past
twenty years, and in face Of the in
famed public opinoin in st. Peters
burg, it would be unwise to blind our
selves to the existence of possibilities
that would otherwise be unthinkable.
This country has adopted with de-
cision and composure an attitude from
which there can be no retreat or
fiinching. We seek a simple redress
for a violent and unprovoked injury
and where the peace of the West de-
ponds upon the will of the czar We
cannot believe that civilization will
look to him during the next forty.
eight hours in vain.'
The foregoing announcement, from
an organ SO notoriously inspired, with
its open reference to a possibility of
war, adds enormously to a situation
that already was grave enough.
Every other London morning paper
devotes it's leading editorials to a
similar view of the situation. Wal
with Russia IS openly contemplated
by the most staid papers of the EN-.
pire as a contingency much to be re.
GREETED, but nevertheless inevitable
for the honor of the nation unless
speedy reparation be made for what
Is alleged to be a dire insult to the
British flag.
Special dispatches from Malta give
alarmist accounts Of the hurried de-
parture from that port of the British
cruiser and torpedo squadron. Their
presence at Suez or Whereabouts may
eventually have no little bearing on
the situation.
