VITAL STATISTICS Of IRELAND Washington, Jan. 20. Consul Gunsau- lus at Cork writes that some ' valuable and interesting figures are given in the annual report of the registrar-general of Ireland, just issued, covering the fiscal year 1904. According to this report the estimated population of Ireland has fallen in th jniddl of the year 1905, to 4,402- 1 92. The natural increase of population recoraea, or trie, excess of births over deaths, was 24,298; the loss of emigra tion amounted to 36,902. A decrease of 12,604 in the population would thus ap pear to nave taken place durinir the vAr: but against this decrease there is a set-off in immigration, of which no official record has been obtained.

Tnat a slave market, in which young white giris e the merchandise, is in full blast on tie Northern coast of British Columbia, is the gist of the report, from the Ottav a government to the government of tnt province of British Columbia. The Do minion authorities have received their in formation in an elaborate report from C. J. South, the retiring secretary of the British Columbia Children's Aid Society. In consequence of Mr. Smith's sensa tional disclosures, Hon. F. J. Fulton, act ing attorney general, has directed the provincial police to investigate the alleged conditions, while at the same time the Dominion - has ordered inquiry by the agents of the department of Indian affairs. Hitherto the provincial police have left the Indians to the care of the Indian agents taking little cognizance of their doings ex cept when they have become involved grave criminal offenses. in we course or nis direct and very positive report, Mr. South states that at Cape Mudge there it a family of, half breeds, both men and girls showing very little of th Indian strain. The elder brother, who recently gave one of the biggest potlatchee ever known In th north, ha for years been doing a whole sale and retail business as a slaver, his to whom the girls of the tribe are sold, th mother returning to the tribal village upon desertion. This slave traffic ha been in existence for five generations, and the girls show none of the Indian, and are easily sold at from $500 to $2000 each according to disposition and good looks. A similar traffic is said to be carried on at Port Simpson and at one or two other northern points. ATROCITY Of YAQUI INDIANS . Santa Rosa, Jan. 20.
