NEW YORK, Feb. 19.—During the past six months every steamer belong- ing to the Furness line arriving at this port has landed explosives and big guns, says a dispatch from Halifax, N. S. They were distributed among the harbor fortifications. The shift of work- men employed until recently was the largest in the history of the garrison and numbered 1800. These men, under direction of engineers from England, working on night and day shifts, made great changes in the forts and assisted in mounting the new guns, all of which are of the latest pattern, with disap- of the fmperial forces in Canada, acting under orders from the War Office, has ordered a three days’ mobilization of the Royal Artillery.

The present| force in Chiligprovince, the Secretary explained, wa¥ really too weak to maintain internal order, while the 600 reserves in Kiaochou were a slender pre- i caution for the preservation of the neu- | trality of that district.

Everybody is in high spirits and daily expecting rein- forcements. Russian families are leaving Manchu- ria owing to the dearness of provisions, all of whjch are required for the troops. The Mapchurian and especially the trans-Baikal raflroads cannot cope with the demands for transportation. Women and children are unable to get trains and many are waiting at the stations, suffering from cold and hunger. The rise in prices is due to some ex- tent to the fall in the value of paper money, which in some places is alto- gether refused. It is expected that there will be suf- ficient supplies of bread, meat, butter, petroleum and fodder, but not enough sugar, preserved meats and linen, and boots. It is not to be expected that such stores can arrive for some time. The Manchurian railroad officials have applied for extra allowances of pay. LA S L Russtan Sguadron Must Return.

The authorities have notified her commander that his ship may remain in port for a limited time, but that he cannot be provided with coal in quan- tity more than sufficient to enable him to reach the nearest Russian port. Premier Mura denies the report that the British Government hinted to Spain the necessity for adopting measures to safeguard her neutrality in the Russo- Japanese dispute, asserting that no diplomatic negotiations whatever have been received on the subject, and that the military steps taken were a step forward by the most elementary pru- | dence.
