Just now the Ger- man press has suddenly become ramp- antly angry because of the seizure of German steamers trading to Delagoa Bay and alleged to be carrying con- traband goods intended for the use of the Boer armies. Germany has had a large trade with East. and South Africa,which has been in largely carried on by a line of mail steamcrs plying from German ports to Lorenzo Marques, on Delagos Bay. It is well known that before the war broke out these steamers carried' many cargoes, including cannon, rides and ammunition for the Transvaal Government. In time of peace this trade could not be stopped. The British Government has received in- formation that the German liners have been carrying on the same trade in contraband goods since the war has been going on . The comman- ders of British cruisers; no doubt act- ing und6r instructions from the home authorities, have seized two stcamers. the General and Bundarath, of the German line andsent them to Dur- ban to be adjudicated upon by the prize court there. ai - _ . The German press and the steamer owners deny that the seized vessels were carrying contraband goods. The ritish press_assert that the cargoes ~wcrc at lcastin part contraband. This #latter contention sesinsextreinely pro The British government preserves its cilm under 'all this cantinental clamor.

Most of these are being built inf pursuance of plans to build a given number of -war vessels each year for years to come. I But during the past year Italy under- took to make an extra outlay of 25.- ` 000,000 llire (about $5-000.000) to increase her navy. Germany has been _ spending $l5.000.000 yearly on new war ships, and the present law pro I vides for this to go on till 1904. The Kaiser’s new scheme, now likely to be adopted, involves an outlay of $21.-' 000.000 yearly on new war vessels for 14 years to come. ` It is gratifying to learn that Capt. Finlayson prononnces the Minto “a better all-round boat than thcl Stanlsy” and predicts that the winter’s work will demonstrate the fact. Capt. Finlayson ought to' know.
