Forest Frres.—Fredericton, N. B., has been enveloped with sinoke for some days. Large forest tires are burning back of Mauger- ville and further down the St. John river. The protracted drouth has made the woods so inflammable that the flames are spreading over an extensive area. Wild animals have been driven out to the clearings. In Mauger. ville three bears have been killed close to the river by farmers, and up the Oromocto numer- ous deer have been seen herding with cattle in the clearings. It is reported that the Mau- gerville fires are the result of carelessness on the part of some surveyors on the Harvey- Salisbury line.

RACES AT TRURO.

Truro, Sept. 4.

The last day of the races here was no better than yesterday as regards attendance, but the trotting was excellent. The 2.45 class was the first race called, and in which there were five starters, viz.: Whistler, of P. E. Island ; Gladstone, of Billtown ; Mis- take, of Truro ; Wildtlower, of Pictou, and Katie C., of Boston. Katie C. won as she liked in three straight heats, and her trot- ting was much admired. She made the first half of the second heat in the fast time of 1.14}. Whistler won second money, with Wiidflower a good third. The other horses, Gladstone and Mistake, were never im it.

The 2.28 race was a splendid one. Four

entries were booked, but Maud C. was drawn, and only, three started, Bronze Chief, Sir Garnet and Jackson. Bronze

Chief won in admirable style in 2.364, 2.384 and 2.39.

The decisions and ruling of the judges was most satisfactory throughout; but there is no questioning the fact that the races to-day were ‘‘worked.” There was a gene- ral feeling of crookedness apparent to the spectators. C. Bill, of Billtown, protested against the Boston horse Jackson, and claims that he is entered under an assumed name. Considerable money changed hands on the races. A beautifully finished and finely gtoned hell, presented to the Truro Association by McAvity, of St. John, ad- orned the grand stand to-day.

nici News of the Strike. Lonpon, Sept. 4.

One hundred thousand relief tickets, of the value of one shilling each, were issued yesterday. itis suggested that the Lord Mayor, the Governors of the Bank of Eng- land and the President of the Chamber of Commerce might succeed in_ settling the dispute between the men and their employers. There is a wmark- ed increase this morning in_ the number of dockmen resuming work and business on the wharves presented a rather brisk aspect. John Burns delivered an ad- dress to the strikers to-day at the Town Hall. He denounced arbitration through intermidiaries, and denied reports that dockmen were going to work. He said he expected that strikes will he inaugurated in Glasgow to-day, and in Southampton on Thursday.

LIVERPOOL, Sept. 4.

The strike here is ended, the employers

having conceded to advance demands, Lonpon, Sept. 4.

The police fired upon a crowd of strikers obstructing the work of loading steamers, fatally wounding one man.

Mr. Latuna, a large whartinger, has con- ceded an advance io his employes, and will resume work to-morrow.

The strike committee sat until two o'clock this (Thursday) morning. It was agreed that the committee would consent to the men resuming work at any wharf paying six pence an hour ordinary time, and eight pence an hour over time.

Baseball News.

Banoor, Sept. 4.

The game this afternoon between the St. John’s and Bangor’s was witnessed by an immense crowd, it being estimated fully 12,000 people were present at the horse races and ball game. The St. John’s again met with defeat, the score being i7 to 10 in favor of the home nine.
