many would escape prosecution? Or
to be a little more specific. how many
boarding houses are there in the
city that have complied with the
provisions OF this law? These quer-
les are propounded for the purpose
Of calling attention to the fact that
all boarding houses not more than
two stories high come within the
scope OF the law. One section of this
law provides that every building or
structure not more than two stories
high from the ground, and where
the second floor is less than twenty
feet above the ground, kept, used or
maintained as, or held out to the
public to be an inn, hotel, or public
lodging house Or place where sleep
ing accommodations are furnished
to the public, whether with or with
out meals, shall have and be proyid-
ed with in every room on the floor
above the ground, a MANILA or hemp
rope of at least fiye-eights of an
inch thickness, firmly knotted at
least every fifteen inches of its
length, and long enough to reach
within four feet of the ground, and
securely fastened within the room
not less than ft above base or sill
of window or opening and so with
strength of rope and fastening be
capable of sustaining a weight of
not less than five hundred pounds

The person failing to comply with
the above provision shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor, and on
conviction thereof shall be fined in
any sum not less than $2o nor more

vancouver b. c., Sept 1.-THE
Chinese and japanese quarters are

dreds OF guns have been sold in the
past twenty-four hours to orientals.
until the police prohibited the sale
OF firearms to anybody, Every Chi

trance to every Chinese store stands
a Mongolian with rifle. All Chinese
cooks, mill men and laborers and all
Japanese working in the city and in
the country within a radius of fiji
teen miles from Vancouver have
been sumpoued to the oriental
quarters and are filling all houses
there Besides firearms, knives,
stones, bottles and bricks are in
stock ready to repel any attack or
mob at any future occasion.
1t is a question whether the city
or dominion is responsible for the
SIS, ,000 damage done by the mob.
1t is understood Mayor Bethune has
received a telegram from Governor
General Grey at ottawa demanding
that law and order be preserved in
Vancouver at all costs, and lives and
property of Japanese residents be
accorded full protection as guaran-
teed under the clause of the treaty
between Canada and Japan.
The chief of police has sworn in
