The Present Position.
The English wanted to make a settle

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

DUBLIN, July Is, 1911.
In accepting the candidacy for parlia-
ment in northeast Cork. T. NJ. Healy
said that the all-for-Ireland movement,
as he understood 1t, meant that they
would not tie themselves, like tin kettle
to q dogs tail, to any one English party.
He asked nationalist was it likely that
men who excluded William O'Brien and
himself from their councils were going
to bring in suitable home rule bill, a
suitable land purchase bill or suitable re-
forms for the laborers and artisans? Mr..
Redmond had said that they would not
only take a subordinate part, but he said
that they must acknowledge the over
riding authority Of the English govern

He anticipated that next year. when
this measure was brought in. it probably
would be more disappointing than the

DECREASE IN THE SHIPS,
INCREASE IN THE SIZE
Fewer Vessels in the World
Than There Were a Few
Years Ago.
Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.


LONDON, July %. 1911
1t will surprise many people to learn
that there are fewer ships in the world
than there were a few years ago. Lloyd
Register now gives the total as 3O,OS7
whereas the figure for 1908 was 80, 1903
The explanation is simple. The carrying
trade of the globe is done in bigger ships
because it is more profitable. The Olym-
pic, for example, only counts as one YES
sci, whereas her 5000 tons would in the
old days have been spread over quite a
respectable fleet. Again, sailing ships
have largely disappeared. A single steam
er replacing three Of them is at least as
effective. All the same the worlds ton
mage keeps growing. The BOOST ships
represent 43,147.154 tons, whereas the
larger number Of few years back stood
for 39.43S.917-a growth of 100000 tons
in four years.
New Steamers on the Pacific.
No surprise is occasioned by the an.
nouncement that the Canadian Pacific
Railway Company has placed an order
in this country for the building of two
new steamers for it's Vancouver-Hong
kong service. The step, which has beer
long In contemplation, means the sup
preston Of two famous boats, the EN-
press Of India and the Empress of China
They are steamers of 5000 tons, built
just twenty years ago. At the time they
markable craft, and their history has
quite confirmed the impression. Year in
and year out they have plowed the wa
tiers Of the Pacific with timetable regu'
larity, forming valuable link in their
owners service from Liverpool to Hong
kong. No two boats have rendered more
prolonged or more useful service to the
empire, and none has done more credit
to its British construction.
An Unconhrmed Report.
1t was reported some time back that
the Canadian Pacific Railway Company
contemplated placing the Empress Of
Britain and the Empress Of Ireland or
the Pacific route, and building two new
steamers for its Liverpool-Quebec serv.
ice. Apparently there is no such inten-
ton. These two last 14.OOO-ton steam
ers were only constructed in 1905. and
are therefore well in the front rank of
the steam shipping in the Canadian trade.
AS much cannot, Of course, now be said
for the Empress Of India and the En-
press of China, for since they were first
put upon the Pacthc there mas been a
great increase in the size and speed of
steamships. The fact that both the
American and the Japanese are running
some fine boats across the Pacific has
something to do with the Canadian Pa
cific's plans.
In their half-yearly circular Messrs. H.
e. Moss & Co. take q cheerful view Of
prospects in the shipping trade, and sug-
gest that the autumn will bring even bet
ter results. Messrs. Moss & Co. think
that before long there may be a trade
boom in the United States, which will
prove valuable in its consequences to the
shipping industry in general.

ULSTER SHOWS LOYALTY

That Irish Community Is Not

Home Rule Is Certain.
Foreign Correspondence of The Star.


BELFAST, July 10. 1911.
Has Protestant Ulster modified its
views? Is it becoming reconciled to the
prospect of home rule? The demonstra.
ton of the Orangemen of Belfast in
celebration of the 221st anniversary OF
the battle of the Boyne supplied an en-
phatic answer to such questions. Ulster
has not changed its views. listers re-
fusal to accept the government Of an
Irish parliament is as fierce and uncom-
promising as ever.
The procession was in many ways a
most remarkable political demonstration.
For an hour and a half in the center OF
the city the parade filed by-lodge after

ing. drums beating the fierce din of re-
iterated expressions Of determination
After an hour and a half the lodges were
still striding by, the drums were still
beating; only half of the procession
had passed on the way to Castiereagh.

meaning of it all was to be expressed in
the terms of resolutions.
A Multitude Gathers.
Such a multitude had gathered that II
seemed impossible for any others to find
room. Yet by two roads debouching upon
the field the professionals entered like
rivers flowing into the sea. their ban

deavored to put into words the meaning
of the extraordinary spectacle.
But individual oratory seemed but a
lame attempt to represent the determine
ton of such a multitude. Indeed, OF the
vast concourse on the ground but very
small proportion could hear word OF
any speeches. AS the resolutions were
being put the sections of the demonstra-
ton were still fling on to the ground:
and far ACCESS the valley the route OF
the oncoming procession could be traced
by the banners cleaning in the sunlight.

crowds of well dressed people. There was

PARIS, July -, 1911
fresh series of acts OF Sabotage on
the French railways is reported. The
lines chiefly affected are the Nord, the
Western State and the Lyon railways.
At one point no fewer than eighty tele-
graph and telephone wires have been cut;
at another point siNty-eight wires and at
a third thirty-seven wires. Similar acts
have been perpetrated simultaneously at
places - far distant from one another
as Lille. Beauvais. Avignon and Toulon.
Another form of this criminal mania con-
sists in blocking railway signals with
large stones. In number of cases
auarchistic and revolutionary literature
has been left on the scene Of the crime
In other places plaCards have been af-
fixed by the perpetrators announcing that
this form of protest will continue until
all dismissed railway strikers are rein
stated.

excited among the public by this callous
disregard for human life, and the an

SECRET OF GOLD MINE
IS GUARDED BY DUKE
Public Does Not Know Results
of Experimental SIuicing
in Scotland.
Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.


GLASGOW, July 20, 1911.
The secret Of the first results Of the
gold-washing which is being actively
carried on in the Duke Of Sutherland
experimental camp at Suisgill burn ha:
heen well kept. but William Heath, the
Klondike mining engineer, who is in
| charge of the operations, intends short
ly to open the sluice boxes. which hold
the gold already collected.
He proposes to do this within a few
days, and when this is done it will be
possible to form an estimate Of the
value of the Kildonan gold fields, which,
in the opinion Of some experts. will
eventually justify the almost forgotten
title Of 1.-THE City Of Cold" which still
marks the site Of the old diggings of
forty years ago.
Whether this will be so or not re-
mains to be proved, for Mr.. Heath has
along the stream. and his sluicing
operations have SO far been confined to
a spot near the camp.
Gold Hid Among Rocks.
The gold dust is hidden at the bot
tom Of the rocks in the long, narrow
| sluice boxes. which run from the tops
Of the dams built by the campers. and
no one can tell how the experiment is
succeeding until Mr.. Heath has made
his exact examination.
1t is not considered etiquette in min
ing camp. to ask for results Of a
'wash-up," for a more than usually
fortunate find if noised abroad might
lead to "claim jumping or a sudden
undesired rush Of diggers from other
districts to stake out lots near. So Mr..
Heath Of Dawson City. Klondike, only
smiles politely when strangers wander
into the camp and look inquiringly at
the sluice boxes. which hold his secret.
1t is beyond doubt that traces of
gold-"color," as miners call it-may be
found in Suisgill and Kildonan burns
anywhere that washing is made.

Deserving the Old Way.

of late, however, the people of New
England seem to be losing confidence in
this bulwark Of freedom and buttress of
democracy, and one town after another
has appealed to the great and general
court for permission to change it's form
of government. Old ideals are being rele-
gated to the attic, like old furniture, and
the ancient practice of giving every citi-
zen chance to express his views by
voice and vote has become unpopular The
drift is toward that autocratic despotisIn
called the commission plan," and. strange
to say, the people of Massachusetts are
going to Texas for models and methods
of government.
The town Of Cambridge. which, as every
body knows, is a center of learning and
wisdom, and from the earliest settlement
OF New England has been a leader of
thought, il not of action. was the first
to reject the faith of the fathers and try
the new-fangled form of municipal gov
eminent. Since then Haverhill. GIouces-
ter, Lynn and other manufacturing towns
have broken away from the most sacred
of municipal traditions: then Boston re-
organized. and now petitions are coming
into the great and general court at every
session. from different parts of the state,
asking for new charters that will deprive
the masses of the people of the share
they have always enjoyed in the govern
ment, and commit all authority to a linn
tied number of men, with autocratie
powers.

Washington under the patronage OF a
committee OF society women the liv-

brown hair and brown eyes. No mat
ter how beautiful a girl Of the blonde
type might be, she did not have
chance Of being chosen for the show.
The blonde girl is not admired this
season. for she does not bring out the

Of the orient still hold his attention
and in some OF his startling new after
