FINANCIAL EXCITEMENT IN LONDON.

Lor* Dalferli li Dlstrcu.
The London ami Glnlie Finance
corporation, limited,��U8jiemleil payment December 29th, Day the (lis-
pa tehee. When brokers delivered
stock purchased on account of the
London and Globe and linked for
paymentjtliey received checks which
were dishonored. This was followed by the failure on the stock exchange of twelve other firms. The
London and Globe is heavily involved in the British Columbia
and West Australia markets. All
the shares nn the London and Globe
group toppled, especially Lake View
mid Le Roi No. 2. The shares of
the latter the day before were quoted al 22 and after the failue was announced were unsalable at 4.
Lord Duffrrin is chairman of the
London and Globe and his fellow-
directors are: Whittacker-Wright,
who is well known in many other
companies; Lieutenant-General, the
Hon. Somerset J. Gougb-Calthorpe,
who has been Colonel-in-Uuief of
the Fifth Dragoon Guards since
1892, and Lord Polham-Clinton,
Master of the Queen's Household,
and a son of the former Duke of
Newcastle. The failure of the concern of which Marquis of Dufferin
and Ava, the former Governor-
General of Canada, and the British
Ambassador at, Pirris, is ihe bead,
adds one more sorrow to 1 he closing chapter of his life, for he is today preparing to start for South
Africa in company with Lady
Dufferin, in consequence of the
serious condition of his son, Lord
Fredrick Blackwood, the Lieutenant in the Ninth Lancers who was
wounded Monday at Glenfontein.
It is scarcely 11 year since Lord
Dufferin Inst his eldest son, the
Earl of Ava who died at Ladysmith. He is now encompassed by
family grief and his honored name
is dragged in the financial mire.
Republic Mlilif Notes.
The Republic mill is soon to be
enlarged.
The vein in the Chico widens out
and looks better than ever as the
work of development goes on.
They have commenced to drift
north and south in the Princess
Maud on the vein in the 300-foot
level below the tunnel. It is the
intention to drift 100 feet each way.
The vein is a strong one, as is indicated wherever cut into. The work
now in progress is some 550 feet below the outcrop.
W. S. Keith to Assist Custom. Officer Mc.
Citcbeoi at Oreeswood.
Inspector Clute of the customs
department paid a visit to the
Greenwood office a couple of weeks
ago, and as a result of that visit he
wired the depart at Ottawa for an
assistant to Mr. McCutcheon, as the
customs business done here is too
great for one man to attend to, says
the Greenwood Miner. On Monday
last W. S. Keith received a telegram
from W. A. Galliher, stating that
he had received the appointment.
The new member for Yale-Cariboo
has started off in the right direction. Mr. Keith was the choice of
the local Liberal association for the
position, and Mr. Galliher acted on
this recommendation. This is an
indication that Mr. Galliher intends to consult his constituents in
all matters affecting them. If be
carries out this policy neither the
members of the Liberal party nor
the public generally will regret his
election.

Rich strikes are reported near
Midway, both east and west of

Copper Queen by A. Beckwith. The
claims on which the strick was
made were originally located as the

the property of Randolph Stuart.
A rich strike was made the past
week on the Bruce, a claim about
one and one-half miles west, of Midway, says the Greenwood Miner.
A large amount, of work had previously been done on the Bruce,
and although very rich ore had
been taken out, a solid body of ore
had never before been encountered
until the past week. The ledge recently uncovered is over four feet
in width, carrying high values in
copper.
W. J. Porter returned Thursday
from Brandon, Man., where he went

HEAD THE GOVERNMENT LABOR GAZETTE.
The official Lalxtr Gazette, .published by authority and under the
supervision of the department of
labor at Ottawa, is doing a most
excellent work.
As in the postal department, Min-
��� ister Mulock is demonstrating bis
earnest desire to benefit the masses
in his official efforts, and he is to
lie sincerely gratulated for the conception and inception of this com-
. mendable effort in the interest of
labor to honestly and impartially
educate employers as wells as employes along liberal conciliatory
.lines, which will ultimately prove
.to be of great benefit by cryBtaliz-
jng public sentiment around just
principles.
The information the Gazette contains is as reliable as can  be had,
States to watch the progress of the
proposed steal. I want every man
to read und to understand the deal;
to know the reasons why congress
is called in extra session. This
would tie enough to prove every
charge of corruption made by the
democratic party in the last campaign. I am absolutely certain
that the bounty grab will not go
through at this session���it won't
go through if I can help it. Senator Allen and Senator Butler have
formed a plan with me to defeat
action on tbe bill, and we will tight
it every way possible."
BRIEF LOCAL MENTION.

snow has fallen to afford good

NOTICE OF APPLICATION FOR
A PRIVATE BILL.
*nd complete as it can lie made. It one-half mile south of the interna
seeks to be absolutely impartial as
'between capital ami labor, and will
go a long way in convincing its
.readers of tlie merits and demerits
of contentions between these two
great factors in the body politic,
and prevent many a clash which
might otherwise distress great commonwealths by protratcted strife
based on illiberal concei's and imaginary wrongs.
The intentions of the promoters
of this publication bear the stamp
of good-will and integrity of purpose, their efforts eo far being wisely
directed. It is published monthly
at 20c a year, or 3c per copy. Every
-wage-worker and employer in the
Dominion should be one of its
readers. The problem of justly
defining the rights of labor and
capital is one of the most profound
with which the twentieth century
philosophers will have to deal, and
this undertaking on the part of the
Ottawa government tn aid in its
solution by enlightening the public
mind relative thereto, is worthy of
earnest and broad support.

PETTIOREW'S HARD SUM AT HANNA.
Senator Hanna's great anxiety
in the late U. S. election was apparently inspired by self interest.
He intends to go into the shipbuilding business, and he desired
I in this as in all of his other enterprises, to compel the people to contribute to its success. So he is trying
to force congress to vote a subsidy
in his favor. But Senator Petti:
grew is "onto" him. In an inter-
I view Senator Pettigrew says:
"I to want say, that the subsidy
I bill is nothing more than an at-
I tempt to steal $9,000,000 a year for
1 the purpose of paying the campaign debts of the republican
j party. If it is absolutely necessary
to get the bill through as a job to
j enable Senator Hanna to obtain
I the cash loaned tn re-elect Mc-
I Kinley, then I want it done at an
I extra session nf congress, so as to
1 invite attention completely to it,
I and show to the country who the
I president is that will call an extra
] session when Senator Hanna snaps

CASCADE CITY,
BRITISH COLUMBIA. January 5, 1M1
THE CASCADE RECORD
FROZEN TO DEATH IN THE MOUNTAINS.
The Body ol Harry   Lowery   Found   la  a
swasip Near Republic.
The remains of Harry Lowery
were found Thursday ahout noon
some four miles mirth of the Tom
Thumb mine, says the Republic
Pioneer. The circumstances of the
case are as follows:
On Thursday Joe Crane a Imy
about 15, and J. P. Nicola, were cut
hunting, and in their search for
game they had gone into a swiiui)i
that had heen burned over during
a forest lire, At a particular moment, while iu search for a certain
section post, they heard the loud
harking and howling of a dog.
Young Crane and his companion
followed in the direction from
whence the sound came, which led
them into considerable timber.
The dog kept up his moaning and
barking, and finally be was locat
ed
found. His calls for help, for such
they were, attracted-the attention
of the hunters.
The deceased was ahout 40 years
of age and leaven a widow, who
conducts the Columbia house on
Keller street. Lowery wan a sporting man, and well known in Montana mid other sections.
A telegram from Dr. Horace
Lowrey, at -Grit nil Junction, Iowa,
a brother of tbe deceased, has been
received, announcing he would start
for Republic at once. He will arrive early in the week.
IN CHINA.
Is there a living man who knows
the truth about the condition of
things in China? We do not believe it. The ancient empire seems
like a great volcano, in whowe
bowels there Hie rumblings and
slinking*, mid no man can tell
A stalling sight   presented j whether or not there is going to be
itself. Half reclining on the edge
of i huge hole made by the uprooting of a large tree was the body
of a man. Tbe remains were nearly covered ivith diiow,, but little
more than the face being visible.
The dog, a pointer of.mediiim, i>iqe,-
displayed his gladness at tlie sight
of his rescuers by jumping about,
racing up to Crane nnd Nichols,
and returning back to the body
over which he had kept such faithful watch. The snow around the
dead body of the man 'bail. been
thoroughly-well' -packed down by
the dog, showing he had kept close
to the side of his master. There
was no evidence of there having
been a struggle nf any kind; there
was no tracks-'of a jhoifsaj and no
foot prints'indicating triie had lieeu
near. 1 he dead man's tracks made
in the snow and thot/e ot tire illqjg
were visible, hnwevfr, indicating
they had come directly to the spot.
Glancing around young Crane
found i. 22 rifle, some twelve feet
away from the body. As soon as
the remain* were viewed,tliey , were
recognized as tho.-e of Harry Low-
cry, well known in Republic, and
keeper of the Columbia hotel. The
body wa* placed upon a horse, and
the faithful dog following, the party
made their way back to town.
He had been missing some ten
days, nnd when death overtook
him he was attempting to make
his way, home aften*haying been on
a trip toTomdo, where he had mining property. Near his person was
a cartridge belt, but tlie revolver
was not in place. He bail no fond
near him. It is surmised that he
may have been preparing to .light a
fire against the stump of'the fallen
��� tree, but was too much exhausted
to proceed, and falling to sleep he
gradually froze to death.
The last seen of Lowery alive
was on Wednesday of last week, at
Bodie. He had been drinking hard
but started for home on that day.
He got off the Sheridan trail, presumably, and tried to follw the old
Tom Thumb route to town.
How long he had been dead when
his remains were found cannot be
stated, evidently for five days. The
dog wai in a famished condition,
and could scarcely follow to town
so weak was he from exposure and
lack of food. ; ,';
The locality where Lowery lost
his life is an isolated region, save
for two or three rancbet that have
recently been taken tip. CAbout.a
mile from where the body lay is the
cabin of a Mr. Glover, who has a
homestead. But the cabin was not
visible from the spot where-Lowrey
eat down. It is due to the faithfulness of the dog that the body was
an irruption, nor if there is, what it
will amount to. Are the rumblings
in China going to die out? Or will
there be an upheitvel and a little
lava trickling over the edge of the
crater? ' Or will there be nn upheaval, duplicating in its own way,
the terrible explosion of Vesuvius
which overwhelmed Herculaiieum
and Pompeii? These are the questions more easily asked than
answered. We do not believe anyone can answer them.
\ Lei. us iu these days of retrospect,
turn our glance backward to the
early centuries of the Christian era.
At that time a vast horde of people
whom the Romans called.- lionheiii
Barbarians, swept across Europe
and even overthrew the Imperial
City itself! Whence came they?
Who were they? What started
them on their western migration!?
Again," tiiese are questions more
easily asked than answered. Nj>
one oan say by what racial 'dim;-*
vulsion these hordes were sent forth
to overrun Europe as the lava of
Vesuvius overrun the cities at its.
base, und so no one can judge of the'
possibility of another racial irruption which may sweep westward
over the Old World. This is one
of the things which lend such intense interest in China. Are the
crowded millions of that country
going to move? Cuiua may be
likened to a beeliive filled with its
.busy brood of workers. Are the
Chinese going to swarm?
Suppose the answer is in the
affirmative what can the rest of the
world do about it? There are four
hundred millions of people in China.
Suppose that five millions, ten
millions or twenty millions should
begin a western movement. Could
they be stopped, and if so, how?
Artillery could not stop them, that
is certain., Is such a swarming
possible? .Itjiis quite possible.
Europe and America have not been
content to leave China alone. Occidental methods of living are being introduced, and the land simply will not support its present population if these methods become at
all general. The movement may
be slow, put it seems sure to follow
the introduction of western civilization. This is the real Chinese
problem, but it is one with which
the diplomats cannot deal. They
ulay settle certain other matters,
aud secure certain promises from
the rulers of"the country, but these
wil be nothing if once a racial
movement is inaugurated, and it is
this that we think seems visible on
the Chinese horizon.���Colonist.

January 5, 1(01
THE BOUNDARY HOTEL BURNED.
luMtM Hive  Dlllkslly II  Ottttlil Oil-
Very Little Salts.
On Friday morning Miortly after
2 o'clock  fire  broke   out  in   the
-Boundary hotel,  Midway,   owned
by Tho*. McAully, and the building
SB well as a log building adjoining,
were burned to the ground.   The
fire originated in the basement, and
it ie supposed must   have   been
-caused by the furnace.   It teem*
(hat the first one to discover that
the building was on die wae E. A.
��� McAutey, brother of the proprietor.
- His room was on the ground floor.
He wae awakened by hearing it rig
- drive past at a rapid  gait.   When
he awoke he smelled smoke and
vthen noticed it coining through the
transom over the door.   He at once
went to all the rooms and woke the
inmates., and as the entire building
-wae filled with smoke, it was with
great difficulty that some of them
got outside safely.   The cash regis-
t-r was taken nut of the liar   anil
at the time it was done flames were
coming through  the floor at the
other end of tlie room.   Some  of
-the boarders saved a few articles of
wearing apparel, but iMHt of them
had barely time to slip on a meagre
supply of clothing   and   get  otit-
| -aide. In an incredituhly short time
I the whole   building  was   a   mass
| '<>f flames, am)   only for the fact
"that there was no wind blowing the
| lose would have been -much greater.
As it was, only by strenuous efforts
i of the citizens, who formed a bucket
("brigade nnd carried water from the
I river,  was  the   big  livery stable
1 across  the  street   saved,   and   its
(���present    blackened   and   charred
I condition tells the story of its nar-
lrow escape.   In a cellar separate
from the hotel was a stock nf about
I $2,000 worth of liquors, which wa��
leaved.   The total loss was hetween
I $9,000 and $10,000, nn  which an
[insurance nf about $5,000 existed
I in the Phoenix, of London, Eng-
1 land, Sottish Union of Edinburgh,
land British America of Toronto.
iThis is the first fire of any import-
lance that has ever occ uied in Mid-
Iway.
Mr. McAuley is one of the pin-
Ineers of Midway, having come here
lin 1898. when he opened a hotel
[near where the Lancashire house
Inow stands. Next year he moved
Ito the present site and erected a
[building, which in 1896 was expended to the commodious one just
[destroyed. It is probable that Mr.
IMcAtiley will rebuild in the spring.
