Sorry for Canadian Sealers but Can't Advance Any Money. OTTAWA, Ont, May 18The government received yesterday a formal answer from the home authorities to the request lately made on behalf of the Canadian sealers, that the Imperial parliament advance the sum of $425,000 which it had been agreed the United States should pay in lieu of full claims of the Canadian sealers, but upon which agreement the congress declined to act. Lord Ripon's dispatch states that the Imperial government sympathizes strongly with the Canadian sealers in their present position, but at the 6ame time it does not feel it would be justified in asking parliament to advance the money to them.

At the close of the entertainment a banquet was served in the lower hall, after which those present assembled in the ballroom.

The grand march was headed by Mr and Mrs Edward Cullen, followed by 64) couples, making a brilliant spectacle, the costumes of the women adding much to the occasion. The Poor was under the direction of Mr E. F. Cu'lert, ably aas.sted by Mr T. B.

If the section of the commissioners' channel is built as recommended between Center and Ritchie sts, we shall then have two sections of the low-grade channel, one 600 feet long, the other 2300 feet long. 500 feet apart. each drained by sections of the present channel, which is about 14 feet higher.

The low-grade chanels will therefore be filled at all times nearly to the crown of the arch with water, forming settling basins for the sand and mud of the brook, which will speedily fill them The commissioners' channel is now complete from Charles river, or more exactly, from the ponds in the Back Bay fens, to the inlet chamber near Pynehon St. This will have to be extended in the near future to join the section of channel between Center and Ritchie sts, and this in its turn to join the section now being built by the 11 II railroad. The commissioners in 1886 recommended that, in extending the channel above the inlet chamber, the original course of the brook be followed; that is. alongside the railroad as far as Old Heath st. But the experience of the city in 1880 may prove a valuable guide upon this point.

The superintendent of sewers at that time, under whose direction the improvement of 1880-84 was begun. found that the damages demanded for land and buildings were so excessive that he was forced to build the channel In Pynchon at. The experience would doubtless be repeated now. But, in addition to this, unless the channel is built immediately, the Ft will have erected a retaining wall about 19 feet high, carrying their four-track road; this will add so enormously to the difficulty and cost of excavating a trench 26 feet deep and 25 feet wide at its foot that there cannot be any reasonable doubt that the city will be compelled to build this channel in Columbus ay. These considerations seem to make it evident that the extension of the low-grade channel from the inlet chamber up to Join the section now being built by the railroad should precede the construction of Columbus av; otherwise, shortly after surfacing this fine avenue the city will find itself forced to destroy It by excavating in it the enormous trench required for this channela trench 26 to 28 feet wide and 28 to 32 feet deep.

But any extension of the low-grade channel of Stony brook ii-nmediately calls up for solution two other knotty problems, which are inextricably bound up in It: one Is the question of the rights of the Boston belting company to the water of the brook; the other is the question of providing a low-grade sewer for those districts in West Roxbury which are too low to be sewered by extensions of the existing sewer system there. The Boston belting company use the water of the brook in their processes of rubber manufacture. and claim the right to it In virtue Of an old mill privilege. To extend the low-grade channel beyond the inlet chamber will cut off the water entirely from them unless some special device is adopted to cause the water to continue to flow down the old channel to their factory. Without attempting in tl is connection to discuss the relative rights of the- Boston belting company and the city of Uoston as to Stony brook.

a which would involve complicated legal points. It may be stated that there are three courses open to the city. If it be considered imperative or expedient to continue to supply the belting company with the water of the brook. viz: A. To erect a movable dam or large gate at the inlet chamber, damming up the water by means of it high to cause it to flow down the old channel in fair weather.

and removing the dam during floods. to allow an uninterrupted flow through the low-grade channel. This would require a damming up of 131,4 feet. B. To set up a pumping plant at the inlet chamber.

and pump sufficient water up into the old channel to supply the factory. C. To transfer the inlet chamber or a similar structure to the farthest point up stream to which the low-grade channel extends uninterruptedly. utilizing the existing channel to carry the belting company's supply between the inlet chamber and Center st, and building an auxiliary channel from this point on. upon the haunch of the arch of commissioners' channel.

If this latter scheme is adopted arrangements should be made with the Y. railroad to build this auxiliary channel in connection with the section of the channel which they now have under construction. the city to pay the extra cost to the contractors. There is time enough to make such arrangements, as no more masonry will be built until spring. The second problem mentioned above as connected with the extension of the low grade channel, viz.

the building of a low grade sewer for the Stony Brook valleys is simpler. There are about 500 acres of land in West Roxbury adjacent to the channel of the brook, which Is too low to be sewered6 by the existing system: some of it is being developed by new streets. and is being built upon. A sewer low enough to serve this territory can never be built half so cheaply as it can in connection with the building of this low grade channel for the brook. From the head of the Stony brook branch of the intercepting system, at the corner of Elmwood and Linden Park sts to the Roxbury crossing, there is an unused seven-foot brick channel.

From this point up to the inlet chamber the channel is only partially filled by the stream which is allowed to flow to the belting company. A sewer could be built cheaply here. From the inlet chamber up. a sewer could be built in the open channel as well as it could be below the inlet chamber, and one of the two 7x10 foot brick' channels in Pynchon et would be available for It, even if the other were utilized for the auxiliary channel before mentioned. Above Center St this sewer would have to be carried upon the haunch of the low-grade channel, and the same arrangement made with the railroad company in regard to building it as previously discussed in regard to an auxiliary channel.

These problems are so involved, each with the others. that this department and the city government should come to a decision in regard to them without delay, as the opportunity to build all that WI be required in this narrow valley cheaply and without destroying previous costly work will never occur The interests involved are serious enough. and the economy which can be effected is great enough to warrant obtaining the necessary funds by means of a special long-time loan outside of the debt limit, if no other means are available. The improvement of 188044 stopped sit the Florence St bridge. about a quarter of a mile northeasterly from Alt Hope station.

Private parties interested in Hyde Park lands have, during the past year, carried this improvement on up to the Hyde Park line. under an agreement with the city, they to do the work to the satisfaction of the city engineer. a nd the city to pay them the sum of Sti000; culverts at street crossings have been rebuilt or underpinned where good enough. and the channel excavated to the theoretical grade of the improvement of and to a width, substantially.

Gunpowder, Rockets and Other Explosives Stored Without the Knowledge of the Authorities. Enough gunpowder and other explosives to blow up a big part of the city of Chelsea were taken to that city last Thursday and stored in an old building adjoining a blacksmith shop, in a thickly populated part of the city. The explosives were imported from England Thursday, and were refused storage in Boston by the Boston fire department. Then it was that they were clandestinely, or without the knowledge of the Chelsea chief engineer, transferred to Chelsea. The explosives arrived on the steamer Mentmore and were landed at pier 2, of the New York New England railroad docks.

As long as they were in Boston the fire department assigned a man to guard the dangerous articles. and to see that in no way were they exposed to fire. When they were transferred from the pier they were accompanied outside the city limits by a member of the Boston tire department. The government bonded truckmen did the moving. The goods were consigned to Charles Meyer, 58 Long wharf, and were given in charge of constable Charles Jones of Chelsea.

The latter had them brought to a building which he leased on Everett ay. Chelsea. just below Spruce St. Near by is a blackstmith shop, and the location is the center of a large tenement district. Electric cars pass on Everett ay.

The goods were already in their storehouse when chief engineer H. Allen Spencer heard of their arrival. Contrary to statute law he had not been notified of the arrival of the explosives in the city. His information came through the courtesy of district chief Egan of Boston. Yesterday afternoon chief Spencer had the explosives transferred to a building in an isolated section of the city, wnere they remain at the present time.

The goods filled 23 large cases, and comprise 4500 heavy skyrockets. such as are used for signalling at sea. and abcut 5000 large blue lights, also used at sea for danger signals. TESTIMONIAL AT WEYMOUTH. Grand Success of Entertainment Given by Friends of Mr John Cohan.

LONDON, May 18Three matches were sailed in the regatta of the Royal Thames yacht club at Gravesend today. The first was between the Britannia and the Ailsa, the second between the 40-raters Carina, Caress and Iso Ide, and the third between the small raters Luna.

Stephanie and Audrey. There was also a handicap race between the Namara and the Maid Marion. There was a very moderate north-northeast breeze. The course was from the lower Hope around the Mouse lightship and return to Gravesend, a distance of 50 miles. The weather was cloudy, but at the time of the start showed signs of clearing.

There was a fair win0 from the northeast as the boats got away, but it was a failing breeze. The Allsa, with the windward berth. crossed the line at 11.41.50, the Britannia at 11.42.15. Passing the Southend east, the boats were in this position: Britannia 12.56.44. Al Ise.

12.57.35. The breeze was light north-northeast. The yachts crossed the line on the starboard tack, carrying main and foresail, jib and jack topsails. Almogt immediately after crossing the line they tacked to port and set their flying jibs. The Al lsa made a short board inshore and then tacked to the starboard and drew away.

The Britannia made a longer board to port, and when she tacked to starboard it was noticeable that the Ai 'sit had increased her lead. The wind dropped and the sun almost broke through the clouds, but the sky soon dulled again, and the light breeze began lessening. The Britannia won again today, defeating the Ai Isa by one minute actual time. The boats crossed the finish as follows: Britannia 3.55.00. Ai Isa 3.56.00.
