The British Pacific Cable Just Completed. OPENED FRIDAY. AN EVENT OF THE HIGHEST IMPORTANCE. / A British Telegraph Girdle About the Globe--Laid in Three Sections--It is Over Sev- en Thousand Miles in Length. London, Oct. 31.--The British Pa- cific cable has been completed and will be officially opened to-day. The event is regardea as of the highest import- ance as the completion of -the cable brings into being for the first time a British telegraphic girdle around the globe. The cable is 7,900 miles in length, and it has been laid in three sections. The southern section joins Brishane and ; Norfolk Island, the northern sestion extends from Vancou- ver Island to Fanning Island, and the central section, which was completed yesterday, unites Fanning Island to Norfolk Island. 'The Vancouver-Fan- ning portion the longest cable without a break in the world. The tariff committee of the railway and the Russian minister of finance have decided on the rates for a jour- ney through Russia on the Siberian is railroad from any frontier station on the west to a station in Manchuria, on the Russo-Manchurian frontier. The first-class fare, inclusive of an ex- tra charge on express trains, and not including a charge for bedding, sleep- ing. etc., will be 151 roubles, or about £63. The second-class' fare will be about 85 le The Siberian express will start from Moscow, which may be reached by way of St. Petersburg or the Warsaw branch. Beyond the fron- tier station the journey through Man- churia will be in charge of Chinese Eastern railway, which, according to Russian official statements, has been recognized as a foreign line. Immedi- ately after this recognition it was an- nounced at Kharbin that the opening of the line through Manchuria to traf- fic had been postponed for 5 year. The German emperor, vesterday morning, paid a visit to Count Von Buelow. It is assumed in Berlin that the situation -greated by the recent voting on the tariff bill formed the chief topic of conversation - and ru- mors are current that the chancellor was able to communicate details of a probable compromise between the gov- ernment and the majority in the reichstag. Astonishment is expressed here at the magnificence of the sum which the White Star sharcholders have received from the Atlantic shipping combine. Pierpont Morgan, Jr., complains of the attitude adopted by the Eng- lish press towards the tube proposals brought forward by his firm and inclined to attribute it to national jealousy. He says: "Whereas Ameri- can papers speak plainly and tell us what they mean, the English press gets at us by innuendoes, which are difficult to meet. Ii the English pa- pers, in criticizing. would look at. our proposals from the commercial side, which is. what we most care about, they might understand us better." is MASTERING DOUKHOBORS. They Are Out to Christianize the World. Winnipeg, Oct. 31.--Major Strick- land, of the North-West Mounted Pol ice, left vesterday: morning, for the disaffected Doukhobor districts to superintend military operations in case the Doukhobors cause further trouble. The Doukhobor pilgrims are now part- ly "started on their mission to Chris- tianize the world. On Wednesday night they camped on a blufi east of York- ton, and yesterday morning they started on their long walk. They are going in the direction of Salt Coats. It was feared on Wednesday night that an attempt micht be made to liberate the women and children, but nothing of this kind was attempted. Many Doukhobors who' are not, converts to the new fanaticism attempted, vester- day, to dissnade their countrymen from their intention, but it seemed of little use. Nearlv everv man is carry- ing a bundle or a roll of blankets and as long as the weather holds as it is they will not suffer. The Doukhobors at Yorkton have asked for a special train to take them to a warm clim- ate. All their funds have heen given to Mr. Creerer, the local immigration an~- ent, who has now upwards of 17,000, made un of their savings and the pro- ceeds of the sale of their stock.

Montreal, Oct. 31.- Simpson & Peel's mill, 8 to 14 "St. Phillip street, shortly 'after one o'clock, this morning, and resulted in a loss of $40,000. The workshops were gutted; lumber stored in the yards was destroyed, and considerable dam- age was done to adjoining residences and the sausage factory of ex-Alder- man James Harper. Corpl. Larocquée had just leit No. 5 station, to begin his rounds, and hap- pening to glance across Dufierin square saw flames on the roof of the Simpson &_Peel building. The offices and the southern portion of the build- ing were in the grip of the flames. The building is two storeys in heicht, of brick, with wooden interior. This, to- gether with the inflammable contents, caused it to fall an easy prey to the fire. Surrounding this building were many small structures, which were threatened and it required steady ef- forts to confine the fire to the one block. The stables in James Harper's place "were threatened and the men rescued ten horses and took out" a number of wagg ons and sets of har- ness, but two of Simpson & Peel's horses were burned. A stiff south wind blew the flames across St. Phillip street, and, for a time. it looked as if the entire block would go. A few well-directed streams saved the dwellings, but drove the occupants out in short order. A. E. Peel and James Simpson, pro- prietors of the mill, were at the fire. Neither could throw any light on the probable origin of the fire. They es- Five broke out in loss and said it is fairly well covered by insurance.

John Fritz Revolutionized the Steel and Iron Production-- Began Life as a Poor Black- smith. New York, Oct. 31:--The Waldorf- Astoria banquet hall will be the scene to-night of - the most notable banquet that has taken place in this city since the affair in honor of Prince Henry. Captains of invention and in- dustry, the central figures of finance, allied with the iron trade and the leading members of the engineering profession in this country and Europe will gather about the board to cele- brate the eighticth birthday of John I'ritz, ironmaster and inventor, of Bethlehem. Pa. The banquet will al- so signalize the successful founding of the John Fritz gold medal for achieve- ment in the industrial sciences, the medal to be awarded annually by a committee of the American Society of Civil Engineers, the American Society of Mechanical Enginecrs, the American Institute of Mining Enginee and the American Institute of Electrical Engi- neers, At the banquet the speakers select ed will respond not only for each branch of the engineering ana mechan- ical arts, but for the army and navy and allied interests. John Fritz is the Nestor of the iron trade in this country. He began life as a blacksmith in 183%, and in his long career has been identified with al- most every important step in the pro- cess of making iron and steel, which has resulted in an inerease in the Am- erican product of a million tons in 1838 to 16,000,000 in 1901. The crowning effort of his life was the con- ception, the. designing and erection of the great forge and armor plate plant of the Bethlehem Steel company, of which he was the chief engineer and superintendent from 1860 -to 1893. Mr. Fritz, physically vigorous and active of mind, still continues his in- vestigations in his little office in Bethlehem, where he can be found daily with his assistants. He works carly and late, and is even as indus- trious as in his early life, when he spent from eighteen to twenty hours 4 day among the forges.of the' Bethle hem works. He is a striking example of the typical American, born of poor parents, who were solid, substantial and d-fearing. With only a dis trict school education, gained in the middle part of Pennsylvania, he start- ea life with the stimulus and oppor- tunity that American citizenship gives, and attained a position in the steel industry that recognized "by the whole world. He is probably the only man now living of the small group that introduced into the United States the Bessemer steel process. great economical revolution was thereby ei- fected, from which has flowed the tre- mendous development seen to-day - in stéel manufacture in" the - United States. The leading men in the in- ry to-day are the pupils of John 18 z. 1203 the British Tron and Steel Institute gave Mr. Fritz the Bessemer gold medal, 'which is about the high: est distinction a steelmaker can re- ceive. ~Charles Hewitt, who Yaid his career at the Trenton Iron Works, ana made a vast fortune for himseli and his brother, Abram S. Hewitt, is the only other American who has been so honored. Opening Coal Fields. Pittsburg, Pa., Oct. 30.--A new or- canjzation, the Great Lakes Coal com- pany, with $5,000,000 caj ital, has ac quired 25,000 acres of coal near Brady's Bend and has begun the opening of ten large mines and will open five more, giving it a daily out- put of 12,000 tons with the object of entering aggressively into the "great lakes coal trade in the coming spring. The coal will be stacked and at the opening of navigation shipped to Conneaut Harbor, over the Pittsburg, Bessemere, and Lake Erie railway. . Three Men Killed. Oxford, Ohio, Oct. 30.--Two runaway freicht cars crashed into a fast mail train, bound from Cincinnati to Chi cago, on the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Davton RR., near this city, last night.

Washington, Oct. 31.--Archhishop Ireland, referring to the growth of temperance sentiment in Kurope, said: "During my travels through Europe recently, 1'have discovered that the war against alcohol is spreading through every country on that conti- nent. There is not a single country in Europe to-day that does not have its annual conoress of anti-aleoholie work- ers, and these congresses are made up of the hest physicians and the lead- ing thinkers of each and every coun- try. WILL ACCOMPLISH IT. Grand Trunk Road Will Be a Transcontinental Line. Detroit, Mich., Oct. 31.--"There is no question," says a Detroit gentle- man who has recently talked with General Manager Hays, "that the Grand Trunk will become a trans-con- tinental line. Mr. Hays has said this himself. He told me that if it took two, five ar ten lyears to accomplish it, the G. T.R. will go to the Pacific coast. This will be done by traffic agreement or absorption of other lines as far west as this can be done. One of the roads that will thus be brought mto the Grand Trunk system is the St. Louis & San Francisco. This might 'be considered absurd if any other man than Hays was back of the plan, but I believe he will accomplish it." STOLE A COAT: Anley Morrison, M.P., Loser.
