by the crimson gore which flowed
from the wounds, and finally to
be dispatched by the swift sword
stroke of the matador, the interest
of the crowd grew in intensity,
and even those whose unaccustom-
ed eyes were revolted at the blood
shed, felt a fascination they could
not resist.
Four bulls ware fought to the
death at this fight, and three hors-
es were sacrificed. Several of the
fighters had very narrow escapes
from death, but came off unhurt.
The fight lasted nearly two hours.

ATTRACTION AT
THE BULL RING.
Thousands Of Spectators Witnessed the
Fight In Aatamoros Sunday.

One bull fight is generally
enough to satisfy the average Amer
lean. Even though their nature
revolts at the cruel spectacle which
they know they are going to wit
ness, when the opportunity pre-
sents itself, nearly all Americans
will go at least once to see a bull
fight. Thus it is that hundreds
of Americans, chiefly of the
Homeseeker contingent, were
among the spectators at the bull
ring in Matamoros Sunday after
noon last, These were supplement-
ed by the usual throng of Mex
leans, who from long custom still
admire the game of bull-fghting.
The catchy bull fight music by
the band, the gaily dressed crowd
with their animated faces, the pic
turesque entry of the quadrille of
fighters in typical costumes, with
horses handsomely caparisoned, all
formed a picture typically foreign
and one which doubtless made a
vivid impression upon the visiting
Ame7lcan0S.
The fight was considered by
judges as a scientific exhibition.
The players were professionals of
more than ordinary skill, and the
tOros quite fierce and even vicious.
As the animals, one after another,
were admitted to the ring, to be in
turn teased with the tossing of the
red capes. tortured to madness with
the steel darts, which were SO

BAD BREAK
WhitphOrse Minister Insults
 Americans
Lspeelal Corresp0ndenesl

Whitehorse, June 24-something of a sensation. was created last right in this city when the Rev. E. TurkIngton, local Presbyterian minister, went out of his way iu the course of an other w.se prosaic sermon to detsme America and insult Amerscans. The rsVe, end gentleman asserted from the pulpit that the United States are the next most murderous country to Russia that the foreigners in the United States do not constitute the criminal element, but that the ratio of crime is highest ln the states containing the iewest foreigners.
 The foregoing statements were made in connection with sn effort to endorse the lately enacted Dominion Lords Day Act Either through ignorance or maliciousness he asserted that owing to their disregard Of Sunday, the United States had sunk to the depths of degredation described by him.
 Nearly a'I the Americans in White horse who go to church attend the Presbyterian service, but henceiOrth .he stay-at-home contingent will 5a largely augmented. They are not say ing much but they feel that an uuCalIed for insult has been hurled st them. Liberal mi-ded Canadians denounced the parsons statements as wholly out Of place and as being the result of uarrowuess, prejudice and ignorance.
 The Rev. MT. TurkingtOn grew to manhood in Ireland and bis slight knowledge of the laws and customs of the United States was acquired during a brief residence in the state Of New York.

HUGHES AT UTICA.
Governor of New York State Guest
 of Chamber of Commerce.

Governor of New York State Guest of Chamber of Commerce..
 UTICA, N. Y., April Ex-Governor Hughes was the guest of honor at a banquet of the Utica chamber of com. merce last night.
 The governor delivered vigorous address, devoted largely to an explana- tion and defense of the public utilities bill, now before the legislature. The governors views seemed te be fully indorsed by his audience.
 The governor, introduced by the pres ident of the chamber of commerce, spoke in part as follows:
 'The importance of providing effec- tive state supervision of public service corporations seems to be generally con ceded. shall not recount the griev- ances which have made the subject one of paramount public interest. It is sufficient to say that the people. with out anilnosity toward rights of prop erty, but with just insistence upon the performance of public obligations, demand that the state shall exercise its power over its creatures and compel due regard for the duties which are corelative to the privileges it has granted
 Federal regulation is not substi- tute for state regulation. Federal pow CTS and state powers are exercised in different spheres. Congress has com- plete authority over interstate com merce. and the state cannot interfere with the exercise of it's prerogatives. and it is desirable that the federal au- thority shall be fully exercised until every abuse incident to interstate com merce is ended
 But. however broadly interstate commerce may be defined. there will remain the problem of transportation wholly within the state and of other local public service. Over local or domestic commerce as distinguished from interstate commerce congress has no power to exert control. and if the citizens of the state are to be pro- tected against abuses of corporate priv ileges in connection with such local or domestic commerce they must look for their remedy to the state and to the state alone"
 Governor Hughes several times drove home the point that. while the support of the legislature would he welcomed by him in his struggle for reforms. he was bound up in no party and asked no better aid in his fight for improve ment in conditions than the good will of the common people
