Boerner plans to build a fleet of aerial leviathians. His airship which is based on new principles, has been worked out in eyery de- tail, and the reports of French experts on his specifications say that his system is the most con- vineing ever invented in its ad- aptibility for long ocean voy- ages. The air cruiser is to be nearly 800 feet long, more than 80 feet wide and nearly 100 feet high, containing 300 cabins, each with two beds. There will be dining and smok- ing rooms, a promenade deck, first class kitchens, — electric lighting, in facet every comfort and convenience possible to ob- tain in an up-to-date hotel.

Ottawa, Nov. 17.—TIt is learn- the resigna- ed here tonight that tion of John Armstrong, Chief Engineer of construction for the Hudson Bay Railway, is in the hands of the Government. Hon. Frank Cochrane, Minister of Railways, is absent from the cap- ital at present and the details of the matter cannot be ascertained tonight. It is stated, however, that the resignation has not yet been officially dealt with or con- sidered by Council. It is believed that the resignation will be ac- cepted. This is the second resignation which has occurred under the present Government's admini- stration of the Hudson Bay Rail- road during the past year. Chief Engineer Hazen of the terminal end of the road at Nelson resign- ed his position during the early part of the summer. John Armstrong has been in charge of the work for several years, and it is upon his reports and upon surveys conducted un- der his supervision that the route has been chosen to the Bay.

He declares a cruiser built his principles can make a non- flight of 4000 miles at an average speed of sixty-eight miles an hour and can land with- out external aid and descend to the water on which it can travel at the rate of sixty-five miles an hour. Boerner is now negotiating with important financial inter- ests in Paris, with the object of building a fleet of immediately which will require a capital of $5,000,000.

AMERICANS DREADING INFLUX OF JAPANESE Activity of Orientals on Mindoro Island Causing Great Anxiety in Philippines. one asserts, on stop six vessels costs Nov. 22.- Victoria, An im- portant political change, due to an industrial episode, is fore- shadowed in the attempt of Ja- panese capitalists to take over the sugar interests of the Min- doro Development Company, an American concern, which con- trols the island of that name in the Philippines. A passenger on the Mexico Maru, which berthed yesterday, Ira Abrahamson, after some years residence in the group, says that the effect ot this announcement had consid- erably stirred public — attention just before he left Manila. American residents have’ the same fear of Japanese aggres- sion as other islands in the Pa- cifie Ocean, and this announce- ment, which has yet to be matur- ed into fact, has made the white residents anxious of the results upon which they reasonably count, principally the effect of the influx of Japanese who would naturally be brought into the country. As the normal influx of Japan- about 1000 a year, and Chinese are excluded under the application of the Chinese Exclu- sion Act to the Philippines in 1902, the fear of an increase in Japanese immigrants is natural- ly very real to the white dents. ese is resi- The Daily News has the largest circulation in the city and dis- trict.
