A despatch (rem London says : â€"â€" Secretary of War Brodrick. writing to the Bishop of Rochester in re- gard to the mortality in the relugee camps in South Africa, states that certain recommendations of the la- dies' commission, which was sent there to investigate the matter, have been adopted. Mr. Brodrick says the loss of life has been mainly due to causes incident to the war. Many families were ill-clad and short of food before they came in, and were unable to combat disease when they were attacked. The War Secretary states that everything possible is being done {or the refugees, but no Government can secure the inhabit- ants ol a country from privation when a small number of desperate men are sparing no means to render it uninhabitable.

A despatch from Ottawa says :â€" There have been all sorts of rumors current in the city with reference to the despatch of another Canadian contingent to South Africa. Public sentiment in this city, as throughout the country, is strongly in favor of the Government showing its good- will towards the Mother Country at {this time by the offer of another ’meunted force. While all the ‘Aus-y tralian colonies have contingents in the field, Canada is unrepresented except by the brave little band of scouts under Major Charles Ross, first organized by the lamented Gat Howard. The thousand men whoi joined the S. A. C. have lost their identity as Canadians, as they are Imperial troops absolutely. While the {eelin is general that Canada. should 5 ow her sympathy to the Old Land at this particular‘ time, it is stated that an oiier of an- other contingent has not been made directly to the Home authorities. but that an intimation has been con- veyed in effect that the offer of last May still holds good.

"In well-informed circles in St. Petersburg a. fear is expressed that the present step of France may force matters to develop so rapidly that Russia, despite the Czar's love of peace, may find herself driven into an attitude of another kind, in order to safeguard her own interests. Events in Turkey and the Balkans are regarded in political circles with great anxiety." France and Russia Decide on Com- mon Action. A despatch from Berlin says 2â€" "It is reported here." says a des- patch from St. Pete: sburg to the‘ Cologne Gazette. “that France and Russia have arrived at an agreement {or common action with a view to the execution of reforms in Armenia and the European provinces of the Ottoman Empire, guaranteed by the Sultan in the Berlin treaty. “They propose to invite the signa- tory powers to meet in conference for this object.

' Auflralia’s Duty on Flourâ€":Duties Generally Are Low.’ A despatch from Ottawa says: â€" Mr. J. S. Livke. trade Commissioner in Australia: has forwarded to the Department of Trade and Commerce copied'oi the first tarill‘ of the Com- monwealth. The anticipated imports for the first year are expected to to- tal $34,000,000, of which £13,000,- 000 will be free goods. Mr. Larke confirms the cable despatch that the duty upon flour amounting to £2 105 per ton, which is about equal to $1 a barrel will be the most serious item that Canada will have to con- tend with in the market of Austra- lia. The evident desire of the col- any is to encourage the growth of sufficient wheat as will meet the re- quirements of the population. Mr.‘ Larko says that on the whole the duties imposed are low, in fact. con- siderably lower that the tariff on Victoria, which went out of existence with the birth of the Commonwealth“ v-â€" The district is practically under martial law. on the strength of which such endless barbarities are committed that the natives are ab- solutely terror-stricken.

A despatch from Jerusalem says :â€" Tho Church of the Holy Sepulchre surmounting Christ's tomb, was the scene of a sanguinary aflray on Mon- day last between Franciscans and Greeks, during which there were a number of casualties on both sides. The dispute arose on the question as to which community had the right to sweep the church. Troops had been posted in the vicinity tor sev- eral days in order to prevent the an- ticipated clash. but they were over- powered by the contending parties. f A System of Storing the Intu- “by should the children be taught singing ? the pro-Boers will ask. in view of the reports of sickness and death among them. A correspondâ€" ent of the Times, however. asserts that the mortality among Boer children is always shockingly high. He says the Boers frequently have families of twenty. half of whom die young. “The hemorrhage was readily con- trolled," said Dr. Coltman, “but owing to the underlying condition of chronic gastritis, with persistent nausea. only the mildest liquid food could be digested. Wednesday he was cheerful and without pain, but at 2 o'clock Thursday morning he became unconscious, and was no longer able to get rid of the collec- tion of mucus which he had been freely expectorating. Death was ex- pected owing to the symptoms super- vening upon gradual carbonic acid gas poisoning." Throughout the evening digitalis was frequently administered. Earl Li's persistent refusals to refrain from attending to hovernmcnt busi- ness aggravated his malady, while the refusal of the family to permit certain measures customary in West- ern medical practice for relieving the stomach contributed to hasten the end. ‘ British Authorities Advertize for Teachers. A despatch from London says : â€"- Following the recent outcry against the treatment of the children in the South African concentration camps comes an advertisement inserted by the Board of Education in Thurs- day morning's papers. for female teachers to go to the camps in order to teach the children the simple ru- diments _ and _singing. Robert Coltmun, an American, who is one of the physicians attend- ing Earl Li, told the correspondent of the Associated Press that. when he was called to act with Dr. Velde. of the German chation, Nov. 1, he found the patient very weak from a. severe hemorrhage. due to ulceration of the stomach.

The Chinese omcinls are somewhat uneasy concerning the effect his death will have on the populace. and to guard against a possible ant 40r- eign demonstration the Chinese - erals have disposed their troops about the city in such a way as to command the situation.
