TORONTO'S GREAT FIRE
Latest Estimates Place the Loss
at $13,0OO,OOO, With S1O,-
000,000 Insurance.

Toronto, April 21.-The total sum of
TOrOntO's losses in Tuesday nights fire
increases rather than decreases, s the
experts reduce the figures from rough
estimates to something like accurate
amounts. The loss tonight is placed
at $4,000 600, with insurance Of $780,
600, 900.
The city architect will recommend. it
is said, that no building higher than
four stories shall be erected unless alb
solutely fireproof, and that no building
shall be erected to a greater height
than seven stories. Particular atten-
ton will be paid TO the insulation of
electric wires placed in the new build
ings. imperfect insulation being the
generally accepted theory as to the
cause of the great fire.
At the meeting of the Canadian IN
derwriters' association, held this after
noon, it was decided to advance rates
in thu cOngested districts of the city
70 per cent, and 40 per cent on business
houses in the outlying sections of the
city. The insurance companies loss Of
$10,000,000 is well divided. and 1t was
confidently stated that all of the COM
panies will weather the disaster.
A number of vaults were opened to-
day. and in nearly all cases the books
were found intact.

SUIT UNNECESSARY.
Venner and Company's Action Dis
missed by Request.

New York, April 21.-Justice Mac
Lean, in tlRe supreme court, dismissed
the application of Nenner 6, Co. for an
injunction to prevent the Equitable
Trust company from accepting the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern
railway stocks held by the Northern
Securities company under the Hill
plan.
When the case was called counsel for
the plaintiffs asked that he be allowed
to withdraw his motion. on the ground
that the Equitable Trust company had
brought a similar suit in New Jersey,
in which the question at issue would
be determined.
William D. Guthrie, for the Oregon
Short Line Railway company. and
cambridge Colby, for the Equitable
Trust company. agreed with Mr. Fos-
ter's proposition of withdrawal
E,lihu Root. for the Northern Securi-
ties company, asked that the applica-
ton for the injunction be denied.
Messrs. Guthrie and Colby said that
this would perhaps be held to be equiv
alent to a denial on the merits of the
case. which they did not wish. and Mr.
Foster counsel for the plaintiffs. said
that he would consent TO have his mo-
ton dismissed, but not denied.
Justice MacLean then dismissed the
application for an injunction.

DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.
Foreign Consuls Object to Russian
View of Martial Law.

New Chuang. April 21.-An order is
sued by the Russian military authori-
ties through the. commissioner of
customs here notifying the pilots of
New Chuang that any pilot who gave
assistance to any japanese ship in the
waters leading TO New Chuang would
be held responsible to the full extent
of martial law has been made a sub
Ject of inquiry of the authorities by
three of the foreign cOnsuIs here with
regard To the exact meaning of the
words to the full extent of martial
law"
To these inquiries the Russian
authorities replied that the assisting
OF Japanese ships in the waters men
toned would subject the offending
pilots to the same treatment given
Russian subjects and traitors, based
upon the fact that the Russian authori-
ties have declared New Chuang 10 be
under martial law
In their reply TO the consuls the
authorities explained further that on
the other hand pilots could be COM
PEELED 10 pilot Russian vessels or forced
u leave New Chuang. The Russian
authorities hold that under the exist
ing martial law foreigners are upon
the same status as Russian subjects.
but the foreign cOnsuls aver that
foreign residents of New Chuang who
might assist the Japanese can be held
responsible for the acts only as bel
ligerents and cannot be regarded as
Russian subjects.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press secured the approval OF the
russian censor before sending this
message although at the present time
such approval is not necessary.

NO DOUBT REMAINS.
Petropavlovsk Was Destroyed by
Japanese Mines.

ST. Petersburg, April 22-Au doubt
IS u the cause Of the destruction Of
the battleship Pctropavlovsk and the
damage to the battleship PoDieda at
Port Arthur is disSipated by the report
submitted bv telegraph 20 the emperor
ON April p. I'm 10 Niceroy Alexieff
stated in a way that leaves the matter
no longer AN open ques ton that mines
we're responsible for the disaster. The
admission of the presence Of japanese
ships off Port Arthur on the night
preceding the going out of the Russian
ships. which were watched By Admiral
MakIrOff. tends to establish Vice Ad-
miral ToEo's claims that his ships laid
the mines on which the Russian hat
tIeshigs struck.
The vicerOys report was sent only
after thorough investigation ordered
by tho emperor had been made. It
was published this morning through
the war commission. II explicitly
states ;hat under the starboard side
Of the PetropavloVsk there was an eX-
piOsiOn." and specifically states that a
mine exploded under the Pobieda. That
the Russian ships did not run on their
own mines is shown by the failure of
the viceroy 20 mention anything Of the
kind. and by the positive statement of
tb. port admiralty that Admiral Ma
karoff was familiar with the location
of the tor-p-does defending the port.
