The City Council met this afternoon to pass the annual balance-sheet. Messrs Grey, Knight, Broiyn, Court, Hutchison, McLcod, and Julian attended, and Mr Grey was elected to the chair. Gn the motion of Mr Jul.ian,. seconded by Mr Brown, the balance-sheet was adopted. . The .Grand. Duke 3oris and- Captain Prince Demidoff, who recently returned to St. Petersburg ~from the'front, have supplied some interesting particulars as to General Kuropatkin's "intentions. To begin with, the returned officers state that the : raihvay appears to be in really good working order. In spite of the -constant pouring of troops over it to the seat of war, the Grand Duke's carriage ran 66C.0 miles of it in 15-days. The carriage in which the Grand Duke and his comrade travelled all the way to the Bussian capital wag armoured- up to its windows. This protection was necessitated by. the raids of the. Chunchuses on the railway line in the. night-time. The '-'red beard brigands" keep aloof" during the day, for the line is well guarded. The Grand Duke had his lights put out during the night. This ironclad carriage, with its library, dressing-rooms,' relies of battles, etc., is a curiosity. Gnu! Knew! Kew! They are all New. So are the soft shirts, Charley's Aunt shirts, and white shirts at Qeo." Fowlds'. —Ad. . .
