Tokio, Oct. 10, 3 pau.—Mr. Teraraut- chi, Minister of War, has issued an order instructing the Japanese army in the field to abstain from criticising the terms of peace, on the ground that the declarations of war are entirely the oat - come of sovereign power. His order forbids the criticiem of either ,subject, especially by those engaged in military service. He advises the soldiers to util- ize the opportunities of peace after the •disabondonment of their regimes ts by engaging in their respective occupation, -always holding themselves lir readiness to join the colors at the Empeor's coed maned. GOW SHOT TOMMY HILL Verdict of the Jury in the Dummer Manslaughter Case. Peterboro report: Strong local feel- ing in his favor notwithstanding, .Chas. Gow has been convicted by twelve of his fellow -citizens of the manslaughter of little Tommy Hill, in Dummer township, on the night of August 24 last. That public feeling ran high in the prisoner's favor. was evidenced by the emphasis with which counsel and Judge urged. the jury to discard outside prejudices anl their own personal feelings, and to ar- rive at a •decision upon the merits of the case. "We find the prisoner guilty, but with a strong recommendation to mercy." With this verdict the jury who had been trying Gow at the Assizes here returned into court this afternoon after deliber- ating in private for two hours and a half. There was no demonstration of any kind; indeed everyove who had listeeel impartially to the evidence could. have come to no other conclusion than that a. decision adverse to the prisoner was inevitable. , Although -mention had been made by some of the witnesses of a shot said to have been fired from the Inn homestead, there was no doubt in the mind of anyone that this shot was pure- ly mythical, and that the bullet which launched the deceased boy into etereity, came from the rifle in Gow's possession on the night Of the tragedy. The morning's proceedings were mark- ed by some brilliant orntorical efforts on the part of both the prosecuting mid defending counsel'. Mr, D. Al, Denuis- toun, who has defended Clow with con- summate ability from beginning to end, made a most eloquent and convincing address when tbe proceedings openel this morning. He reminded the jury of the doubts in the case. "The Crown proeccutor," he said, "in his opening statement, celled upon you to do your duty to your God, eel to your country. I join with him in that wish, but I would remind you of one other point—you are to do your duty to your God, to your country and to the prisoner, at the bar, or your with says that you shall have him in charge and a true deliverance make, cue cordieg to the evidence, so help you God." E. Meredith, K. C., followed in behalf of the Crown, delivering a strong ca - dress. "The dead, bey," he said, "calls upon you as men, having the feelings of men, having the feelings of parents, to -avenge his death, Let it not be said in Peter - bore' that hie death goes unavenged. Was it not trifling with the safety of the public when the Coroner's jury let this man go- •t" The proseentine counsel finally vigor- ously denonneed the fiction of the de- fenee in bringing up at the trial the •faet that the dead boy's father had served a senteeet in the penitentiary thirty years ago, 11111, senior, was visibly affected while. Mr. Meredith was making pathetic references to the dead boy. Justice Street's charge to the ;ivy occupied -35 minutes. He gave a lair and impartial review of the case, aed emphasized alt strong points on both Sides. Tile trend of his charge seemed to be that the theory of the proseert- Mu, to the effect that it was a bullet from tlow's rifle that killed the boy, was tlte eared one, Imullammorroi.

With a bullet wound, behind. her right ear, a handkerchief stuffeil into her mouth, her top garments deranged and a hole burnt through her dress, the dead body of a woman was found by boys who were out nutting on the mountain late yesterday afternoon. It was partly covered with leaves and thorn brush, and Apparently an attempt had been made to burn this covering. Everything points to deliberate mur- der. The woman was seen, in company with a man, on Monday morning, be- tween 10 and 11 o'clock, and it is sup- posed they walked from this city. The spot where the body was found is a very lonely one, and the bush around is quite thick. There are thicker patches of bush not far away. The man and woman were seen standing near Neff's corner, east of James Marshall's house and lime kiln. They seemed to have quite a long discussion, and, from appearances, were evidently discussing which way they would. go. As far as is known that was the last seen of the woman alive, and the man has not been 'found as yet. BRIBERY CHARGES. DID TRONOTO ALDERMEN ACCEPT BRIBE FOR VOTE? Toronto, Oct. 10.—The City Council will meet this afternoon at 3 o'clock to consider the report of the Board of Con- trol forwarding the affidavits which were placed in the hands of the Mayor by Mr. J. A. Paterson, K.C., in reference to the alleged bribery of an alderman in the Puddy matter. There is little doubt that the council will ask tho coun- ty judge to conduct a judicial invatiga- tion into the - whole question of the Puddy Bros.' permit to erect and operate a slaughter -house on Paton road. Judge Winchester,if instructed, will probably commence the inquiry on Thursday. Ald. Lynd, whose name is mentioned in affi- davits, has denied the charges and de- manded an investigation; George Elliott, who it is alleged, handled the money, also enters a denial, and expresses lsit- sell as confident that, council will do what is obviously right in the matter. Ramsden admits that he exer- cised his rights as a private citizen in advocating the cause of the Pridny Bros., and emphatically denies that lie did any that was not perfectly legiti- mate. •-•11-0 TO BAR HARVESTER TRUST. New Zealand Workmen Demand a High Duty. London, Oct. 15.—The Times says: At Wellington, Nese Zealand, twelve thousand workers have petitioned Par- liament to prevent the American Har- vester trust from exploiting New Zea- land, as its operations, not, being sub- jected to labor laws similar to those of New Zealand, would be detrimental to the workers of the colony. The pe- titioners demand that a forty per cent. duty be imposed on all goods- sold by the trust, which can be manufactured here, the objeet being to maintain the high standard of living New Zealand- ers enjoy. The implement mannfactur- ers also ask prohibitive duties. The Government apparently fearing the hos- tility of the farmers, have not proud -s- od anything definite, and as opposition is expected from the eountry members legislation at the present parliament is doubtful. Trust's New Move. Melbourne, Oet. 15.—T1ie American Harvester Trust has initcle a counter move to the action of Sir William Lyne, Minister of Trade and Customs, itt raising the invoice value of hdr- vesters from 438 to 465. The company - has reduced the retail price to £70, which enables purchasers to save 123 per mit. on each machine. The Age says it is probable that further reductions wilt be mule until the Aus- tratiane makers are erushed. Similar teaks are being followed in New Zealand where Prime Minister Seddon has referred the matter to a special conference of employers and employee to be held in November. TICKET AGENTS.

Fulford, of Brockville, Oat, died at the Newton Hospital this afternoon as the result of injuries received in an automobile accident one week ago to- day. Senator Fulford's injuries, whieh were at first regarded as slight, developed in- to paralysis of the vital organs, aml for the past two days there was no hope of his recovery. The accident oe- curred OR Walnut street, in this city, on Sunday afternoon last, the automo- bile in which Senator Milford. was rid- ing with Wm, T. Hanson, of Schenec- tady, N. Y., coming in collision with an electric car. The entire party, Secluding the chauffeur, LOWS Zeriax, of Albany, .N.Y., were thrown out.

Brockville, Oct. 15.—The town is plunged in deep grief to -night on re- ceipt of the despatch announcing the passing away of Senator Fulford at Newton, Mass. Bulletins have been re- ceived periodically every day since his condition became serious, and not once des abroad, and his Summera on the St. Law. rence, where very often on his yacht he entertained not only his friends, but Ills- tingueshed guests from all tart of th world, and in this way he did much to bring the beauties of the Thousand Is- lands to the attention of people, in all countries, The members of bis family were with him at the end, and the re, - Mains will be brought here for inter- ment, accompanied. by his son-in-law, A. C. lIaray, Dr. Cornell and. W. T. Ranson, who was with him at the time of the eccident. The funeral will take place here on Wednesday at 3 pan. Senator Fulford'e advice in business nutters was frequently sought, and he was a director of the Toronto General Trusts Corporation, the Ogilvie Flour Mills Co., the Frost and 'Wood Co. -and the James Smart Manufacturing Co. His attendance at the meetings of these boards, as well as his own business af- fairs, gave him a wide acquaintance with the leading men of Canada, many of whom evinced their concern for his wet - fare by enquiries since his accident. As press despatch from Brockville esti- mates the value of the late Semator's estate at $5,000,000, It is interesting to note that much of the care of his bug - nese lately has devolved upon hie son-in- law, Mr. Arthur 0. Hardy, who is it eon of the late Hon, A. S. Hardy. The Senator renewed friendships in reroute only two meths ago, when touring the lakes on his yacht. Ths was also devoted. to automobiling, and had travelled in many distant parts of the world, :- • CAR BEYOND CONTROL. Motorman Dean Tells How Toronto Ac- cident Happened.

As soon its the bulletins appeared, hun- dreds thronged. the streets and the sad news was soon spread to every part of the town. Senator Milford's death will be it great loss to the town, for since the completion of his magnificent home hero he had been considering several projects for the public benefit in Brock- ville, end another season would prob- ably have seen them carried out.

New York Agent of Cunard Line Also Tells His Experiences—There Were Two Immense Waves—The Ladies Behaved Splendidly, and so Did the Ship. New York, Oct. 16.—EXplaining the disaster to the Campania last Wednes- day, Mr. Sanford, New York agent of the Cunard Line, said., "The winds on Wednesday, the day of the accident, ranged front fresh to strong gale to hur rieane, blowing at last about sixty-five miles an hour. The sea, just at the time of the accident, was breaking on the prow of the ship from two directions, from the southeast and from the north- northeast. "This was due to the fact that the wind had veered during the day, and tile waves were still rolling in the di- rection in which it had started, while also coming in the direction of the wind as it was at the moment. The result cif this convergence was that the ship, from the impact on one side, listed heavily to port, and it was at this mo- ment that the wave• bore clown on her, while she was 'listed, and swept the deck. If the Campania had not been leaning so fox to port the wave -could not have washed over her so high. "It was over the main promenade deck that it broke. The -deck is cov- ered for about half its length. To pro- tect the rest there is a rail, so that the passengers may have a view of the sea. The deck is about twenty-eight feet above the level of the water, and the open space is covered with netting to prevent passengers from falling over- board. "The ship went right on in the gale, after the -disaster, for it was impossible, in the eea. that was raging, to stop and. turn about to look for the victims. 'They probably did not live snore than a few seconds in the mountainous surges that were running." La Savoie in the Storm, New York, Oct. 10.—An experience with the same storm which caused the loss of five ,passengers on the Campania wit reported by the steamer La Savoie on her arrival here to -day. Last Wed- nesday La Savoie ran into a northeast hurricane. Madame Calve was a passen- ger on the steamer, and when the storni was at its height and the passengers were looked in the cabins, of them badly frightened, Madame Calve appear- ed, and, announcing her faith that the storm would be passed. through ie safety, slie sang until her fellow -passengers were rigida in good spirits. Among the pass- engers was C. Mendel, the French Min- ister to Mexico. Philadelphia's Passengers Locked Up. New York, Oct. 16.—The steamer Philadelphia, -which ran into the same term last Wednesday that swept flee f the Campania's passengers overboard, rrived here to -day and reported that he storm wee one of the worst that he Philadelphia ever eneountered. (lately was the Philadelphia out of he storm. zone when a wirele.se mes- age apprised her of the disaster on the :meanie. This news was withheld .om the Philadelphia's passengers until hey arrived at port to -day. All pas - meters on the Philadelphia, were kept nide during the storm, which lasted orty eieht hours. A Torontonian's Version. Mr. Wm. Stone, of the Toronto Litho- raphing Company, who, with Mrs. tone, was a passenger on the.

Malcolm Richmond, the oldest son, says his father said to him recently: "11 anything happens you go. and tell Mr. Taylor at once." unfortunate passengers were swept like corks into the sea by the resietless, force of the receding wave. Several others had narrow escapes, The scene of con- fusion which ensiled when the wave struck the ship was indescribable. Above the roar of the rushing waters could be heard the shrieks of the terrified pas- sengers and the groans of the maimed as they lay on the deck. Intense ex- citement prevailed throughout the ship. Before the water had cleared away the surgeon, steward, and crew rushed to the rescue and assisted the injured, who were quickly removed to the snip's hospital and their wounds Attended to, PortHole Smashed in Saloon. When matters quieted down it little the saloon passengers, who congratulated themselves on their °cape, went down to lunch in the saloon. They were not destined to escape the wrath of the ele- ments, for their gastronomic exercises were rudely interrupted by another ter- rific wave -which struck the ship, burst- ing in a couple of ports and pouring water into the saloon. This second in- eursion of the sea rather upset the equanimity of the passengers. It was a terrible afternoon. So heavy were the seas that none of the passengers were allowed to go on deck, and when the bugle sounded. -for dinner very few of the ladies responded. They congre- anted in the music room on the prom- enade deck, where they were joined by the gentlemen after dinner, and all ex- hibited a commendable spirit of eheer- fulness, trying to make the best of the situation. Their troubles, however, were not yet over, for just when everyone was beginning to feel brighter another mountainous wave struck the Ship and came with such terrific force against the music room that one of the port holes gave way and the sea poured into the room. During that night the ship stop- ped a couple of times, something having gone wrong with the steering gear, the stoppages caused no little excitement, which was further increased when an- other wave came over the ship, smashing a lifeboat and knocking an officer on the bridge senseless. The storm lasted O day and a night, and on Thursday, to the great joy of all an board, the Cam- pania seemed to run out of it, and for the remainder of the voyage lovely wea- ther was experienced.
