Vincent and the u. V. Trade league. To the editor of the free press. Am no or i might have moved an amendment to the Resolution passed at last night s Public meeting not from Mere antagonism to Tho professed objects of the league but irom the conviction that its proposals Are such As would if car ried into execution prove positively disastrous to the interests of Britain and Moit disastrous of All to the uncommercial classes whose interests he professes to be desirous of furthering and who form the bulk of his own constituency. League ool. Vincent states has been founded on a business basis its Constitution is business its aim is business and its motto Trace shall follow the Flag i will therefore criticise his proposals from a business bomb of View and will Endeavor to consider the True interests of the Flag first the relative interests of business afterwards the principal Point for canadians Maimi zobans to consider in with the scheme is the proposal to Levy or 50 per Quarter i. E., 3j or i cents Lawn Tennis tournament drawing to a close. In sell Day on United Stales wheal the sea Serpent. An old to Friend re appears and la viewed by Canadian fishermen. Mac n.b., aug. Reliable fishermen report seeing a sea Serpent off Richibucto Shore. It was two Hundred feet Long about As thick As a Man s body had a Flat shaped head with eyes on the top like a from it resembled a Snake sometimes raised its head six feet put of the water and its body carved like an immense hawser. They were near enough to see Scales on its body and were in View of it for an hour. Balmaceda s claim. He beaten tue Congress Lon Allyl to and will Annex Bolivia. London aug. Daily Telegraph this morning publishes a statement from a chilian resident Here who says he has seen a private cablegram from president bal Raceda to the chilian ligation. Declaring that Hia Triumph is Complete. The statement con Fiina an assertion of the belief that it is the policy of the victors to Annex Bolivia. Cannot recall Trie convicts. Nashville tenn., few Days sine the Tennessee Coal and Iron company lessees of the convict labor of state filed a Bill of injunction in the circuit court to enjoin the state of Tennessee from removing the convicts from Briceville on the recent reports of the state mines inspector and the Board of Penitentiary inspectors who declared the mine unfit to be used and antagonistic to life judge Mcalister to Day decided that under the conditions existing the state has no right to order the removal of the convicts from the mines. Ints per 1 col. Vincent show thab Britain is absolutely de pendent on foreign supplies for an enormous proportion of her food stuffs. He is inexcusably wrong in stating that Britain is the Only extensive nation. is much she largest but there Are other countries which annually import considerable Quanti ties. France alone will this year require from 80 to 100 million bushels. It is therefore Clear that if Britain must have the wheat they cannot tax United state wheat without Mak ing the British Public pay the tax As the american dealer aware that Britain must have the wheat will simply raise the Price by amount of the tax. The result of this would be that the taxed wheat being the controlling Factor in the situation would fix the Price of All the wheat sold in Britain. Our merchants doing Busi Ness on a business basis would raise their pries to the level if the taxed commodity and thus apparently Benefit Canadian Farmers at the expense of the Mother country. Paces of food stuffs in Britain would thus be raised resulting in increasing the Cost of Man fac and inevitably finally pre judicially affecting the working classes. Would then probably Nave to refund any Small increase in their profits on Urain in payment of an increased Price for British manufactured goods. The position would then be this great Britain would Hwe a customs duty of 25 or 50c per Quarter All United states wheat less Cost of collection. would have paid Back this sum in full to the uni bed states in the increased Price demanded by americans. would also Buve to pay so much More on every Quarter imported from her colonies or elsewhere. Other countries where food supplies Are untaxed would be Able Tio produce manufactures cheaper and thus Fonse British manufacturers no sell for less profit or Cut themous altogether. This does not commend itself to me As a Good business policy nor a truly Loyal one ool. Vincent declares that the league seeks bub to promote the development of Trade within the British Empire upon mutually advantageous terms upon a preferential basis. British statesmen and capitalists Are Well aware of the vast undeveloped resources of the final tips in the Handicap events to be played an informal dance at Edison Hall to Morrow evening. Flay in the Lawn Tennis tournament began yesterday on the Broadway grounds at 3 o clock when 0. Denison and a f. Randall met to play off their match in the third tie of the single Handicap. It was somewhat of a Surprise that the latter succumbed so readily losing two straight sets 6-1 6 3. Denison waa playing extremely Well and although there were not Many spectators roused an almost deafening Chear by in which he returned one of Randall a strongest smashes we cd he half volleyed on the Back band Randall did not at any time press Hia Adver sary close. While this set was still in pro Gress the match Between or. Bain and miss b. Adams Winnipeg and miss Birch and or. Wilson Brandon was begun. The Winnipeg players were easily Defeated the score in the first set being 1 All 4-1 42 and62 while in the second set although there waa hard fighting and the score stood at 2 All Brandon again won 6-2. In seven games out of the two sets the score was called at Deuce and in one of these games Deuce waa counted four times. The match was noticeable far a Brilliant stroke in the part of miss Birch who after endeavouring to hit a Ball which bounded out of her reach turned her face to the Fence and returned the National game will agree with this suggestion and it is to be hoped that the differences which occurred at the league meeting in the Spring will not be allowed to stand in thorny of what what would undoubtedly be a magnificent exhibition of Lacrosse. Cornwall Nas won six Conne outlive Victoria against three of the Best teams in the the Shamrock. Ottawa and capitals while the Montreal also have an unbroken record for the season but against Only one team and that an admittedly inferior one. The Montreal Are certainly putting up a remark ably Good game but it a impossible to judge of their True merits until they meet a club of their own class. We believe Cornwall would fill the Bill. It would be a match Worth travel ing Milea to see. Rowing matters. Ball Over her head. Soon after 4 o clock the first tie Between w. Toole and miss Beckett and a. F. Kan Dall and miss k. Beckett who had drawn byes in the preliminary round of the open doubles was commenced. Randall and miss k. Beckett won the first four games in the first sat but lost the next four the score then stood at 5-4, Toole wins 5-5 6-6 and finally Toole won 86. On the opponents changing ends the score was one All two All and than Toole and his partner won four straight games and the set. The second game of the second set Kandall being the server was distinguished by the longest rally in the match the Ball being returned eleven times. After the service and in the fifth game miss Beckett scored a Point after a protracted Duel with Kandall. Numerous enquiries had been made during the afternoon of the various members of the committee As to the time when miss Birch would play her next match in the ladies singles. The event came off about five o clock when the harassed Secretary and c. D. Macdonell had retired to the of Souraty of an unnoticed court to play off their ties in the open singles. Consider ing the prowess of miss Birch . Eden made a most creditable Effort especially As she has not played so much As usual this year. Shortly after or. Eden s defeat miss k. Beckett succeeded in securing her second set from miss e. Adama in the ladies singles. This was not an easy Victory miss e. Adams getting 9 games to her opponents 13, while in the second set the score had stood at 4-0 in her favor. Miss k. Beckett has now to play miss Colquhoun and the Winner will meet miss Birch in the finals. Or. Godwin the Lethbridge player Defeated w. Bain 2 straight sets 0-3 both times. Or. Godwin hits hard with an underhand stroke playing either at the Back or in the j balls Well.

Austin s last offer waa not a bad one. Aid. Smith objected that Ifa was not pro posed to build More than three Milea in a year. Aid. Cockburn objected that a great Many things in the offer were not definite. Aid. Walker thought that if or. Campbell had Home Friend who would take hold of the water Power system he would give or. Austin a Good run. Aid. Gilroy was willing to wait for an Alec Trie railway until they could get reasonable terms Aid. Cockburn said that if the citizens of would keep quiet they would get the electric system on the Best terms. The conversation grew a Little animated at times but was for the most part rather languid. As no one seemed inclined to make a motion the chairman pronounced the meet ing adjourned. Real estate knights Templar. Enjoyable picnic excursion by the Winnipeg comia Andery.
