NOT DEFINITE VET J. P. MeGoldrick Discusses Plans for Mill in Fairview. J. P. MeColdrlok. who has been visiting the Kast Kootenay mills and camps, was present at the lumbermen's meeting In Nelson yesterday. To a repre- senlattve of The Daily Canadian who asked as to the probable dale of the be- ginning of operations in Fairview. he said: "Our plans arc not quite definite yet. We haven't completed all the Improvements we have planned for our Spokane plant Cntll 1 have something definite to say I don't wish to say anything. I'll be here again within a month and may have more definite plans then. "Yes, 1 visited the site, and I was surprised at the fecundity of the soil. We left It cleared, aud In some way, without any aid that we have been Informed of. a flock of ducks, a number of pigs and a pigpen have grown right out of the Boll." Mr. MeGoldrick was quite willing to discuss the lumber situation generally. He said: "I understand prices are not going to be raised, and I don't Bee how they can lie lowered. The price of everything is rising. Wages for labor have gone up 50 per cent, and efficiency has gone down SO per cent Horses that wo got a year ago for $200 now cost |350 Hay has gone up In a year from $11 to $21. and yet It is the farmers who are making these profits that kick' about the high prices of lumber." FOSTERllifGROWING William Whyte Speaks of Special Can to Assist New Industry of Kootenay. Will Enforce Equality. | Washington, July (I.���Tho Interstate -."Commerce commission today, In a do- IClsion In tho cuso of George Edwards William Whyte. of Winnipeg, second vice president of the C. P. R. arrived In the city from Spokane yesterday byway of the Spokane International and the Crow boot. He made the Ike-mile trip rrom Golden to Cranbrook in J. W. Davidson's automobile, through the Kootenay valley along the line of the proposed Kootenay Central railway. The party consisted of himself, Sir Daniel McMillan, lieutenant governor of Manitoba, Mr. Davidson and several others. From Cranbrook they went to Spokane. J. S. Denis, who polned the party at Cranbrook. went on to the Coast to attend the trial of the C. P. R. vs. Helnze In connection with the selection of Koo- ternuy lands. Mr. Whyte came to Nelson to meet F. F. Husteed, superintendent of the Pacific division, who arrived from the Const. The two, accompanied by Divisional Superintendent D. C. Coleman, left for the Boundary this morning. Seen last evening Mr. Whyte discussed railway matters generally and the progress of the country. He had nothing definite to say of railway plans except that there would probably be further consideration of the Slocan's application for Ihe continuance of a daily service. He was pleased at the evidences of improvement and progresB throughout tho West generally and especially In Koolenay. He thinks tbe crop prospect generally Is good, although the cold, dry spring has done considerable damage in the southern parts of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Referring to recent accidents on the line Mr. Whyte Bald lhat tho company was abandoning the use of acetylene gas, explosions of which had caused the accidents. He added: " 1 wish some genuls would devise a cheap, convenient nnd efficient electric storage buttery for use In cars. Nothing so far Hied answers the requirements." On the subject of the fruit Industy Mr. Whyte expressed surprise that ventilator cms had not been provided, as plenty are available, lie also said lhat sperliil cars must soon be provided, lie believes thoroughly in llrltlsh Columbia fruit-growing, und Is convinced that Chinese labor must be employed for picking, ns is tho rule In Oregon and California.

NEUTRALS' RIGHTS Subject of Discussion at The Hague MANY OPPOSING VIEWS Britain Maintains Right of Blockade ���Brazil Gives Qualified Support to America. . The Hague, July 9.���The entire afternoon sitting of the committee on the Geneva conference the The Hague pea' e conference was devoted to a discussion of the American proposition. submitted by Joseph II. Choate on June 24th, regarding the inviolability of private property on the high seas. The committee Bat under tbe presidency or Pror. Da Maartens, M. Nelldoff, (Russian), president of the conference, was present. Joseph H. Choate, General Horace Porter, i". M. Rose and C. M. Huchanan, of the American delegation, and David J. Hill, American minister to the Netherlands, were present. Many delegates surrounded the place reserved for the American representatives, who were busy answering confidential Inquiries regarding the scope and exteut of the American doctrine. Immediately after the opening ot the sitting. Mr. Choate said the American delegation regretted It was unable to conrorm to the decision reached by the president that all propositions be submitted by the end of the week, because some propositions were not yet quite ready. They asked to be allowed to submit these later. The committee assented. The discussion of the American proposition was then begun. This proposal is as follows: "The private property of all citizens of signatory powers with tho exception of the contrabrand of war, shall be exempt on the high seas or elsewhere from capture or seizure by the armed vessels or military forceB of said powers. Nothing In this rule Implies in any way the inviolability ot vessels which will attempt to enter a port blockaded by the naval forces of Bald powers, nor of the cargo of Bald vessels." W. H. De Beauford (Holland) then read a declaration stating that the Dutch government adhered to the American principle, considering It great progress toward the humanitarian Ideas prevailing in the present time, consequently Holland would support any pro- posal tending to secure this principle. M. Ruy Hurhosa (llrazlll delivered a long speech, In which he explained that the statement made by him on June 28, owing to the semi-secrecy of the conference had been wrongly Interpreted as an unconditional adhesion to the American proposition. He wished to make it clear that Brazil wus not the catspaw of America, although she supported this American principle. M. Ilarbosa continued that as a general understanding could not be reached on the American proposition, he begged to Introduce several amendments that would constitute a temporary solution or the matter along the lines bo far as possible of applying the principles of land warfare to private property at sea. Prof. De Maartens read a declaration presented In writing by the Argentine delegation saying they were favorable to the conservation of the right of capture. Sir Ernest M. Satow, then made a declaration on behalf of Great Britain. He said he realized the serloUB character of the arguments In favor of the Inviolability of private property on the high seas, but tho diBcusslon showed the evident and logical tendency toward the abolition of the commercial blockade. Sir Ernest demonstrated to what an extent the limitation of block- ados would complicate mnttcrs, and create new causes of dispute, as a result of which the discussions between belligerents would give rise to fresh Irritation, which might tend to prolong the war instead of shortening It. The Inviolability of property and the limitation of blockades are Inseparable questions, the English representative continued, and Great Britain for the moment does not find the movement toward the Ideal aim, namely, the abolition for war, sufficiently accentuated to bo able to associate herself with the American doctrine. "What Groat Britain thinks necessary to establish." Sir Ernest then declared, "Is respect for tho Interest of neutrals; thnt Is why she proposed the abolition of contrabrand." Baron Marsohal Von Blerbersteln (Germany) Bald that Germany would be ready to collaborate In the projection of private property at sea but on condition thai tbe queBtlon how to make this protection efficacious be first eluci dated. M. Tcharykoff declared that the Russian delegation has profound respect for the ideas set forth by Mr. Choate Inn It did not think the queBtlon wuh yet ripe for solution. Dr. F. Hagerap then voiced the adherence of Norway to tho American doctrine. He said that Norway would vote for the American proposition on condition that the question of coctrabrand was examined. The Portuguese delegated subscribed to the statement of the German delegate, that It Is first necessary to solve the questions of contraband and blockade. NOT FOND OF PUGSLEY Old New Brunswick Liberals Oppose His Promotion. Toronto, July 9.���A St. John, N. B.. special received here today declares that a strong undercurrent of hostility to the advancement of Hon. Wm. Pugs lev has developed in tlie ranks of Ihe old-time Liberals of St. John. The Lib erals. It la said, do not want the promotion of PugBley, and do not want an added measure of David Russell Influence. They would turn Mr. Pugsley down if at the same time they could see their way to strengthen the claims uf st John to gain favor. The Liberals favor the appointment of Senator Ellis. This would be merely carrying out a promise made when the Laurier cabinet was under construction In 1896. The New Brunswick portfolio was to have gone to Senator Ellis but was handed over at the last moment to A. G. Blair, notwithstanding which Mr. Ellis has unswervingly maintained his allegiance to the best Liberal tradition. In the rehabilitation uf the government. It Is urged, the appointment of Senator Ellis would be quite In order. ALPINE CLUB Large Party of Climbers in Rockies��� Venturseme Ladies. Laggan. Alt., July 9.���Thirty-six people have qualified for active membership in the Alpine Club, camping in Paradise Valley. More climbing has been done this year than last, 80 people having climbed one or more mountains. Miss Finlatson was tbe only lady to take the two days' excursion over the high snow pass ot Abbott's Pass. Miss Duval, Miss Helen Maekuy and Miss Jean Parker, of Winnljieg, and Mr. Watt, of Toronto, made Mount Temple, 11.632 feet above the, sea. Miss Parker made it In the shortest time of any lady, making tbe round trip in s hours and 40 minutes. Miss Adams and Miss Springate, of Winnipeg, climbed Mt. Aberdeen. There were numbers from New Brunswick to British Columbia, and many from the i'nlted States, climbing. There are 160 people in camp. Rome Declares War. tu��me. July 9.���The Vatican has been Informed of th*, avistence of a secret International league, embracing Kalian and Anglo-Saxon countries, of which, It Is said, many members are of the German Catholic centre. The ostensible object of the league is the petitioning of the Vatican for the suppression of the Index Expurgatorlus, but it is stated that Its real object Is to stir up strife among Catholics, causing schisms similar to the ultra-liberal movement In Italy. The pope, it is asserted, will Bhortly take Bevere disciplinary measures against the new league. NEW ONTARIO 1$ LOYAL Provincial Ministers Well Received- Westerners Want Only More Consideration. Port Arthur. Out., July 9.���Last night's meeting of Ontario cabinet ministers here developed Ihe fact that bo far as bccosbIou Is concerned there is no sentiment here In that direction. Tho utmost friendliness toward Ontario was manifest in the applause and general tone of the meeting. Mr. Preston, the local member suggested thnt the riding should be divided, and In this sugges tioh wns backed by R. R. Gamey and other New Ontario members. The min istei-H themselves did not mention this subject, nor did they reject It. Mr. Cochrane, referring to the agitation on Rainy river, said there was no way by which a division of the province could take place. Perhaps by a general vote of the people It could, but OKI On tarlo would never consent to a division. In the matter of Improvements, the government desired to do everything possible, but the growth had been so rapid that difficulty to keep pace had been experienced. On the policy or settlement, he declared against opening ot townships lor settlement which do not contain at least 40 per cent, of agricultural lands. TownBhlps which do not come up to this standard should be held as forest reserves. All roads should be built before Bottlers are located. He did not think it right to place families In the bush away from highways. Dr. Roaume's principal announcement was that the government's local buildings should be Improved to harmonize with the growth of the city. Intrusive Advertising. The land owners on the north shore 'of the Arm are aroused al tho defacing or their property with advertisements which they say they hove not authorized. The nuisance will probably lie abated without any public action. WATCHING JAPAN Shores of Pacific Arena of Conflict WORLD'S INTEREST KEEN Press of Japan Remarkably Calm in Discussing American Naval Distribution. New York, July H.���According to n Washington despatch. Secretary of tbe Navy Metealf will sail for the Hawalan Islands July 25th to inspect the naval base and fortifications there with a view of recommending plans to Congress for ' strengthening the position. Secretary of Commerce Strauss will sail on the 3anie steamer to look into the immigration system of the islands and inquire Into the reports that Japanese are flocking to the Islands. Secretary Metealf goes to assist President Roosevelt in persuading Congress to provide for a larger navy, strongly for- til'y the Philippines and Hawaii, and strengthen the fortifications of the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. Toklo. July 9���The Anaki publishes an interview with a Japanese naval expert who says: "It would be Improper to Infer a demonstration In the transfer of the American fleet to the Pacific. The movement is part of a pre-arrangemeut and is a result oi the constant growth of the Americah navy and the Increasing importance of the Pacific from a strategical ixrlnt of view No significance need be attached until nt least 30 ships have been transferred to the Pacific. The Ashal also publishes an article setting forth the same views. It regrets the American fleet cannot visit Japan to reassert her sincerity and to reciprocate the naval hospitality evtend- ed to the visiting Japanese warships at Jamestown. The paper also urges the abrogation of Article 2 of the existing commercial treaty in order to put an end to the cause of the anti-Japanese feeling at San Francisco. Almost all the papers treat the matter with calmness, finding ti iwiuini Cot t*h�� United states to re-distribute its naval forces as a result of Its Imperial policy. They generally express regret that It will be Impossible for Japan to extend hospitality to American officers in return for that shown the Japanese offiecrs at Jamestown. London. July 9.���The Daily Mall, in an article on the Japanese-American situation, says: "Around the immense arena of the Pacific Ocean the embattled nations of the world are gathering as the nntions gathered around the Mediterranean 2,000 years ago. Careful observation will cause universal agreement that the great events of the 20th century will be around the rim of this vast saucer. War between Japan and America is unthinkable. We believe the Intentions of the States, of both countries, are profoundly pacific, and that tho incidents at San Francisco are not responsible for the movement of the Araorlcan fleet. Japan commenced the war with Russia without previous declaration by destroying half of the Russian fleet. Such a move was very effective the first time It was performed and henceforth no nation will wait for the formal declaration of war, but will he ready to strike while there are yet no signs of a diplomatic rupture. The cautious and wise statesmen directing American policy are not violating prudence In deciding to concentrate their lores* around the region whore they can delect the menace of the obscure horizon." New Residents. David Smith, of the C. P. R., with his wife and daughters, has arrived rrom Toronto to take up his residence in Nelson.

Ottawa, July 9.���The railway comls- sion has Issued an order approving a new Canadian freight classification. No. 13, to become effective not later than Sept. 1st next. The more important features of this revised classification are that some 240 commodities, which have hitherto been carried at the risk of the owner, will hereafter be carried at tlie carrier's risk without any advance in ratings, and that on these articles, which will still he carried at the risk of the owner the risk is to be specified and restricted to breakage, chafing, leakage, sifting, loss, damage or deterioration by fire or weather as the case may be. These restrictions are also intended to cover only risks necessarily incidental to transportation, but no such limitation, expressed or otherwise, is to relieve the carrier from liability for any loss or damage which may result from any negligence or omission of the railway employees. These changes are distinctly an Improvement on the old system, and should prove of great benefit to the public. Provision Is also made against any special contracts on the part of the railway companies to release them from liability for damages from any cause whatsoever except those expressly permitted by the claslflcatlon.

Cobalt, July 9.���The present trouble at the Nlplssing, which resulted in about 250 men walking out yesterday morning, Is due, as gleaned by a correspondent from the manager and members of the Miners' Union, to a dispute over contract matters and the schedule ot wajces. Mr. J. MeOe're, the president of the union, and Mr. Arthur Betly, the financial secretary, last night attended on Mr. T. R. Drummond, the manager, and presented him with a schedule of wages prepared by the union. Mr. Drummond is giving the matter of the proposed schedule his consideration, and will give his decision on Saturday next, when it Is altogether likely that there will be a settlement. In the meantime, those who quit work are quietly awaiting the result. They have assured Capt. Maye, of the Nlpisslug. that they have no Intention of making any out of the way demonstration. The property of tho National Silver Cobalt company, which consists of three twenty-acre lots, lying adjacent to one another and one mile north of Cassldy Station, is being thoroughly developed this season under Mr. Joseph Hicks, the superintendent. Mr. Hicks is also the superintendent of the W. J. Trethe- wey, which lies about one mile west of the National Silver property. The policy of the comoanv for the season is to thoroughly prospect their lots by stripping and trenching when necessary. For the present at least no sinking will be done, owing the lack of machinery. A force of ten men are employed on the property doing the development work. So far there have been exposed about half a dozen fissure veins ranging in width from bIz Inches to two feet, with abundance of calcite, which show stringers of quarts carrying Iron and copper sulphides. In fact nearly all the known sulphideB are present In most of these veins, but there is no showing of silver. Smaltito, galena, and some zinc sulphide are shown in several places. All told there has been done on tho property over one thousand feet of trenching, the width aud depth as necessity requires, running from three to four feet. Although no sinking Is being done nt the present time, several shafts were being sunk before the new management took hold of the property. On the most southern, near the railway, a shaft has been sunk to the depth of 87 feet. Some work may be done soon on this shaft, ns the vein showing here is most encouraging, the vein at the bottom showing native silver, which discovery was made at the time the property changed hands. Methodist S. 3. Picnic. The annual picnic of the Methodist Sunday school will be held at procter ou Thursday. The steamer Moyle will leave the city wharf at 8:30 a. m. and 1:30 p. ni. There will be the usual programme of sporta. The meeting of the lumbermen which waB in progress yesterday afternoon, ended shortly before ti o'clock. O. P. Wells, secretary, Informed The Dally Canadian that the only business transacted was a revision and readjustment of prices which would not amount to either a general raising or lowering. Mr. Wells tendered his resignation as secretary, which was declined. W. A. Anstie was appointed assistant secretary, his chief duty to consist of visiting the mills and keeping in touch with conditions and requirements. Mr. Wells, with additional assistance, will supervise the work of the central ofllee. The rest of the business was informal but not unimportant. It was stated by many that attempts to buy timber sooth ot the border had been unsuccessful, as owners there are realizing higher prices and greater net profits than those in Kootenay. It was agreed that conditions In general promise improvement at once. The mill men were glad of the recent comparative slump as it enabled them to overtake the accumulation of orders. Nevertheless, on account of the scarcity of labor, and the unprecedented cost of material, equipment, supplies and labor, many have declared their intention ot greatly curtailing their next winter's out and reserving their assets until conditions improve. Such a policy, Mr. Wells remarked, will lead to a scarcity of lumber nest Spring as there will certainly be no reserve, or sn Insignificant one, thla fall. DEFENCE CASE CLOSING Depositions as to Bradley Incident Continued���Moyer Next. Boise, July 9.���The reading of the depositions taken in San Francisco in connection with the explosion at the residence of Fred Bradley, whom Orchard swears he twice attempted to assassinate, continued today as one of the closing features on the side of the defence in the trial of William D. Haywood, accused of the murder of Frank Steunenberg, by the state. The Bradley incident is looked upon aa one of the most important features of their case In support o fthe Orchard story. The defence has all along maintained that the attempt to poison Bradley and his whole household and the explosion at the house, which Orchard says was caused by a bomb placed by im, are a fabrication. Orchard says that he was commissioned by Haywood to go to San Francisco and kill Bradley, who had been a consistent enemy to organized labor. He swore he first poisoned the milk with arsenic and, failing in this, placed a bomb under Bradley's front door mat with a string attached to the handle. It was, according to Orchard, one of the bombs invented by Petti- bone. At the time given by Orchard an explosion occurred at the Bradley house just aa Bradley himself was coming out of the house, smoking a cigar. Bradley was terribly mangled, but recovered. Shortly after the explosion the owner of the house sued the company for damages and got judgment because of an escape of gas, which It was claimed caused the explosion. Bradley still m.-tlntalns his belief that the explosiou was caused by gas. It Is not likely now that Moyer Will go on the .stand before tomorrow. His testimony will probably take one day and on Thursday Haywood will be called. His examination probably will take up the remainder of the week and the state's rebuttal is hardly looked for before next Monday. New Mining Recorder. W. W. Bradley Is receiving the congratulations of his friends on his ap- poitment to succeed C. D. Blackwood. The new mining recorder was born In Orangevllle, Out., and has been In Nelson for the last nine years. He has been post office clerk, in the painting business with his brother. F. J.

Tuesday, July 9th, 1907. PREMIER McBRIDE'S RETURN. Aprojiros of tlie return nf Premier Mr- Bride from wliat it is pleased to call a "prolonged jaunt to EJngland." our esteemed locul contemporary is pleased to remark: "There will be some prelence of a triumph achieved in London to justify Mr. afoBride's long absence from the province, but after the political fireworks are over it is to be boned thai the premier will get down to business and dispose of several matters lhat have long been held over." It would be Impossible for editorial comment to be more Inept, II Knglish words nu an anything tlie hurried business tri|i of the premier lias been anything but a jaunt. Ue lias not been wasting his time saying florid nothings at banquets and posing In plintngra- pbers' studios or elsewhere. Canada sent one representative to London who can do enough of that for the whole Im minion. "Some pretence of a triumph achieved" must refer, if the words are lnlended to convey any coherent meaning, to the elimination of the words "final and unalterable" from the amendment asked to the British North America Act's financial clauses. Lord Elgin. Mr. Winston Churchill, Sir Krancis Hopwood and other olllclals of the llrltlsh colonial office imagined that they were recommending a very Important alteration, the British House of Commons look Ihe same view. The press of Eastern Canada, Irrespective of party, acknowledges the significance of the omission. Hut these authorities are nothing to our esteemed local contemporary, to whom It Is only "some pretence of a triumph." But the logical conclusion of such a statement must certainly have eluded our contemporary. If the triumph Is nothing, It can only be because Ihe words mean nothing, and Sir Wilfrid Laurier is guilty of incorporating a meaningless rhetorical phrase into an Important amendment to the act which is the constitution of Canada, it is im- possible to belittle the achievement of Richard Mcliride without impeaching the intelligence of Sir Wilfrid Laurier. Of course our contemporary didn't see that. THE TWO CABINETS. Tho opposition press of British Columbia is seriously perturbed because there is one empty chair in the provincial cabinet. There has been a period of about six months during which the department of lands and works has been In charge of a minister holding another portfolio. Granting that It Is best, In the Interest of efficiency that there should always be a res|ionslble minister In churge of each department of the public service, and that a double burden should never be placed upon one man unnecessarily, what have the Liberal press to say of the vacancies in the Ottawa cabinet, where two departments, the two most important of all, public works anil railways, whose interests are not confined to one province but extend from ocean to ocean, are still without responsible In ads? One of them indeed, the department of public works, has been vacant for nearly two years. The situation is without a parallel In Canadian history, as are the means by which c. S Hyman was last elected In London, and his clown play with his seat and portfolio since he started on his nervous prostration holiday. Of the situation and the hopes and fears arising from It, the Toronto News says: "It Is laborious work reorganizing the Ottawa government during the hot season, and particularly dining the absence of Sir Wilfrid Laurler. It was careless of the premier to leave the country with this task Incomplete. The suspense and I lie hot weather may be fatal to some of Ihe aspirants. It is trying also to journalists who have the burden of cabinet, making on their shoulders. How can Mr. Archie Campbell enjoy his holidays with his gaze fixed on a vacant portfolio? Is Ihe summer for Mr. Calvert, of Strath- rody; Mr. Hardee, of Sarnla; Mr. Sutherland, of Windsor, to be a fragrant memory or a life-long regret? We cannot answer, nor can they. Even the fate of slippery William Ib unsettled, but that Is a case where sea air and sea bathing will give a measure of relief. Deep are mysteries of statesmanship, and footsore and weary are they who go up towards the high places. Hut It should be possible to get at Sir Wilfrid by cable." EDITORIAL COMMENT. By the appointments to provincial offices announced yesterday, two faithful and efficient public servants, 10. A Crease and W. R. .larvis. retire from positions they have filled In the public interest foi- many years, anil another. W. H llulliick-Websler, passes from Ihe cnmniand of the provincial police In the district, a position in which his services have been an important factor in keeping a good name for Kootenay in re spect of observance of the law. All three pass Into other spheres of activity and will carry with them the best wishes of their follow citizens, who are all pleased tliat tho changes do not involve the removal of any of them from Nelson. The new appointees have their spurs to win. but It can be said that all reflect credit on Ihe committee that recommended mid the government that appointed them. The retirement of Chief .larvis from tlie head of the city police force will presumably mean the promotion of Sergeant Arthur A. Pitchford, who has well earned It by zealous and intelligent performance of every task hitherto assigned him DAMAGE IS NOT SERIOUS Canadian Northern's Detailed Report Shows Northwest Crop Prospects Excellent. Winnipeg. July 9.���The Canadian Northern railway crop report received today Is one the most favorahle that haa been issued for a long time. The rainfall throughout the province has been all that could be desired. Warm rains have fallen everywhere, and the growth has been very rapid. On the main line section nearly every station reports having had rain, and there is not a single complaint in respect to the weather. Among the stations reporting "plenty of rain," are: White Plains, Gladstone, Dauphin, Gilbert Plains. Kamsack, Quill Lake, Watson. Warman, Radissen, North Hattleford, l���ashburn, Lloydmins- ter, while showers are reported from every other point. The weather is also as good for rapid and healthy growth as could be desired, and the reports of the agents throughout the section generally conclude with words to the effect that "Weather conditions could not be improved." At Invermay the growth has been splendid and the wheat there is over 10 inches high, while from other points equally favorable conditions prevail. At Mayment the wheat Is 20 inches high. The Carman to Virden section has been equally favored. Baldur, Ninnette, .Margaret, Hellview and Virdeu report plenty of rain, while Sandford, Carman, Somerset, Swan Lake, Raldur, Minto, Bl��;\n, iiin-ttii.y ttn-ii rtft��.T*.H i��i*��jri neal- thy showers, and rapid growth is reported in every case.

The gentleman In nuostion, who has prominent social connections, paid his rent a month in advance, and announced that he Intended to go into the business of manufacturing Canadian wines. Later developments, however, have given rise to the suspicion that this was only a blind, and that in reality he intended to manufacture Canadian whiskey on the quiet. As soon as he took possession he 1 itiutrd the windows of the warehouse, and started to acquire a lot of lumber. This lumber, he told Mr. McKeyes upon Inquiry, was intended to reinforce the second floor of the building, where he Intended to put eight big vats for the reception of the wine. The vats were delivered at the warehouse and they were immense affairs, capable of at least containing 500 gallons each. Then a very suspicious thing happened. Gangs of Italians were seen coming Into the warehouse at early morning hours, and sometimes at night. What they did no one knew, but the neighbors had their suspicions. Gradually Mr. McKeyes, who owns a couple of dozen tenements in the vicinity of the factory and goes around each week in person to collect the rent, was informed that there was something strange going on, and when it happened that the tenant asked for a small extension of time to pay his rent in advance last month, the extension was refused him. The next thing was the mysterious and inexplicable absence of the tenant, an absence which neither his friends nor his family could explain, and on top of thsl came the Information that the revenue officers had stealthily visited tlie warehouse. Mr. McKeyes placed the matter in the hands of his attorneys, and started suit for rent and was appointed guardian of the place. Then the wonderful discoveries were made. The lower floor of the warehouse, where a new wooden floor had been laid just previous to the new tenant corains in. was found to be in the greatest confusion, xmu Un* floor had been torn up, and in one corner was found a deep hole. On the ground were hundreds of bags of fresh earth, disposed of between the eight huge vats which *vere supposed to hold the new Canadian wine when it was manufactured, and in one end of the warehouse was a mound containing tons of earth. The hole was Investigated next, and was found*to be the beginning of a tunnel two and a half feet in diameter, and running along the western wall of the building for a distance of some 25 or 30 yards, terminating in a subterranean chember 10x15 feet. The subterranean passage and chamber are very carefully boarded up along the sides to prevent any cavein, It is stated by some of the neighbors who, with envious eyes, seemed to have kept a watch day and night upon the doings of the tenant, that ou the evening previous to the visit of the revenue men a big contrivance was taken out of the warehouse, and carted off in the dark. They claim that this was the private still. Information obtained from some of the people who seem to have been on fairly intimate terms with the lessee of the place, who has disappeared, would go to show that he has gone either to Winnipeg, or to St. Paul, Minn. He told Mr.McKeyes that he had a number of prominent gentlemen associated with him In his undertaking, and a number of gentlemen at various times telephoned to Mr. McKeyes asking how his tenant was getting ou, but Jhey always refused to give their names. Mr. McKeyes states that efforts are being made to unravel the mystery of the subterranean passage and chamber both by the authorities and other Interested parties; but In the meantime Mr. McKeyes will sell the gigantic vats to make up for the damages which this mysterious tenant has Inflicted upon his building.

The regular meeting of the Nelson hoard of trade will be held in the court bouse Thursday evening at 8:80. The chief business to come up Is tbe auditor's special report. R. M. R. The annual inspection of No. 2 company, It. M. R., which was announced lor today, has been postponed for a week.' The members signed the payroll at the armory last night Kootenay Exhibit. Messrs. .1, Hyslop and .1. M. McPhee left for Winnipeg this morning with the OOlleotloD of Kootenay products to be exhibited at the big fair. Everything is In good condition and good results are looked for. Drownings. Several drownings are -reportiMl as having occurred iu Easl Kootenay at the end of last week. The Kootenay near Wardner claimed two men whose boat upset in rapid water, and one man fell from a bridge near Elko. Shipment of Berries. The berries shipped during the rainy days of last week were swollen and did not keep well. They also lost weight during transportation. The berries coming in now are in far better condition Only a comparatively small proportion of the product of West Arm ranches has yet found Its way to market. Letter Boxes. .1. H. Greenfield, post office inspector Of the mainland of British Columbia, Is in the city today In connection with the location of boxes for collection of mail which have been granted by the Dominion post office department on petition of the board of trade and citizens generally. Mr. Greenfield said last night that as many boxes would be installed as he judged necessary for the convenience of residents of the city and suburbs. Year's Lead Output. The total lead output of Kooteuay for the year ending June 30th. 1907, is estimated by G. O. Buchanan at 18.000 tons, a little over one third of which was treated at the Hall Mines smelter. The total is a reduction of more than "0 per cent, from the product of recent preceding years. The decline, In spite of the price of lead, Mr, Buchanan attributes to the inactivity in the Slocan. due in many cases to protracted litlga tlon and its effect on capital, and, to some extent, to the delayed decision on the American zinc duty, which has kept many formerly large shippers idle. During the year the price has remained steadily above the bounty. The St. Eugene mine is renponsible for most of the output. Pythian Sisters. Last evening In the K. of P. Hall the Pythian Sisters had a surprise party, entertaining Mrs. W. O. Rose and Mrs. J. J.
