Press . LONDON , Sept. 7-Tho past week has been the hottest experienced In London In several 'ears. ThIs fact , has made members of Par- liament particularly glad that prorogation permits them to leave for the country. American tourIsts continue to fleck to London In large numbers , homeward bound. These constltuto almost wholly the transient popu- lation of London at present. The correspondence between the Imperial Federation committee and the ministers ot state , which was published today , Indicates : that the colonies of Great DrLtaln may be called upon to contribute toward the cost ot malntahftng the Imperial navy and In return be offered a proportionate hare ! In Its con- trol. The ImperIal Federation committeD urges that this arrangement would lighten 1 the burden ot the DrLtlsh taxpayer and at the same time advance the cause of ImperIal unity. The utterances of colonIal statesmen Including Sir Jules Vogel formerly prIme ! minister of New Zealand , are cited to show I that they support the movement. The mar- quis of Salisbury pointed out to the memo bars of the commlttel that there were fatal mike attending n divIded control of naval n/falrs / , but the duke ot Devonshire lord president oC the council the marquis of Lans- downe secretary of stale for war and lion. Joseph Chamberlain secretary ot state for the colonies , all promised that the proposal should ! have their careful attfntlon. In thlll connection the Globe this afternoon says that the British empire may bo truly i said to ba on its trl1l. The anomaly ot thc present position has forced the Question whether the result Is satisfactory and whether 'We can go on much inner ' without a radical change. Nona of our colonies , the Globe eays , can : regard themselves sate from hostile 55 attacks lu the case of war between England and America , Canada might be expected - . pected to be Invaded , and selt-protectlon of any of the colonies against any one ot the great powers ( Is 10 manlfestly out oC the question - tlon that the colonies would be thrown back upon the Imperial navy. The colonial govern- menta , the Globe adds . do not hesitate even w now to claim the services ot .tbe queen's hlps whenever they are needed. It seems incredible , the Globe concludes , that there should be any doubt as' to the obligations ot the colonIal taxpayers. EXIT NAZltULLA KIIAN.

It consIsted ot visits to the hop fields , where the roughest characters of London are In the habit of spending the month of September as hop Jlckers. On Thursday the duchess ot Albany , widow of Queen Vlctorla'lI youngest son , accompanIed - companIed by her children and members ot.a house party slopping near Alderahot vltted the bop gardens at Crandall They remained among the hop pickers two hours all of the party picking hops and talkIng with the hoppers.

SAN FRANCISCO , Sopt. 7.-TI10 trial of Theodore Durrant will be resumed .on Tees day Monday beIng a state holLday. During : the past week little progress was made , In the taking ' ot testimony None ot the really ; important witnesses for the people have been placed on the stand , and no materIal points have yet been made against the de- fendant. The witnesses who have already testified are merely paving the way for those to follow. While theIr evidence Is important In showIng that the crime has been com. omitted , It docs not point In time remotest degreo' to the murderer. It becomes more and more apparent thlll tha defense will ba nogatlve. More hope ( will be placed In break- lug the chain ot evidence presented by the prosecution than In any testimony he may give In his own beliaH. As yet the defendant'li attorneys have not been SUCCCBRtul In their efforts to confuse witnesses and lead them Into contradictions. The real weighty evIdence upon which the prosecution depends Is to be furbished by three school girls who row Durranl on the street car with MIss Lament on the day she disappeared ; Martin Quinlan , an attor- ney , who saw limo defendant walkIng toward Emanuel church at about 4 o'clock with a girl who answers Blanche Lamont's descrIption ; t Mrs Leak who from her house opposite time Emanuel church observed Durrant and Miss Lament walk Into the church through a. side door ; and , Organist King who about Ii o'clock on the same afternoon wall surprised to see Durrant stagger Into the library of the church panting , partially clothed and dlshevclel. ( It Is these witnesses who will furnish the chief links In the chain oC evi- dence upon which a conviction will be asked and It will bo the testimony which the defendants - fendants will attack with vlgor It the defense succeeds In breaking down ono of the witnesses hey consider they will have a fair chance for acquittal.
