New York, April 16.—Thirty one
million dollars in silver bullion
in the assay office at No 30 Wall
street, has been in danger of being
melted by a fire which burned in
one of the basement rooms for
two hours. None but the employes
knew of the fire and they finally
overcame it without assistance.
Next door to the assay office is the
public treasury where the government usually has from $100,000,-
000 to $200,000,000 stored. In
some way fire in the silver smelting room was communicated to a
barrel of lard mixture used in the
smelting process.
There were 23 barrels of tins
mixture in the room ancl like a
flash they were enveloped in a
sheet of flames so intense in heat
that it was feared the great
treasure in a vault of the room
would be melted. There was no
time to close the Bteel door of the
vault, as the llames from the barrels were so close that it was impossible for anyone to approach
near enough to shut them.
Fifty employes in the basement,
thoroughly drilled for such an
emergency, were quickly to work
despite the dense smoke. All windows and scuttles were closed to
prevent the alarm being given to
the public, and when after two
hours work the last vestige of the
fire had disappeared windows
opening at the rear were raised to
clear out the smoke.

Kamloops, April 16.t— (Special)
—The Labor convention transacted
much business today. Twelve
party planks were adopted nnd one
! or more will follow. A telegram
waB read from Mr. Hawthornth-
waite, M. L. A., congratulating the
conventioiijind urging an independent stand.
An attempt to dominate the convention by the Socialists present
was thwarted by the tactics of
James Wilks taking the chair in
the place of the regular chairman,
Baker of Sandon.
There were prolonged discussions over the land tax, Sunday
labor, which will be voted down,
and smelter propositions.
The convention has been orderly
and businesslike. The chief portion of the platform was a preamble setting forth that no candidate
would bo accepted and endorsed by
the Independent party unless endorsing its platform, and then not
until he had placed his written
resignation, undated, in the hands
of the nominating or endorsing
labor body.
The planks adopted were:
2—Government ownership of
transportation and means of. communication.
3—Compulsory arbitration of labor disputes.
4—Reservation of portions of
coal lands by the government absolutely. The insertion of a clause
in coal leases governing coal prices.
5—Conservation of forest riches
to produce perenial revenue and
promote the pulp industry:
6—Iusertion of a clause in all
charters forbidding the employment of Orientals.
7—Compulsory scaling of all
logs by government scalers.
8—Free transportation to members of the legislature and judges.
9—Gradual abolition of all
taxes upon producers and their products, shifting the burden on land
values.
10—Restriction of Oriental immigration on the lines of the Natal act, with a provision for re-
enactment in case of disallowance.
11—The abolishment of property
qualifications for public officers.
12—The establishment and operation of government smelters
and refinerieB.
A dance was given in  the evening to the delegates.
Later.
At the re-assembly of the convention the discussion of the platform
was resumed and the following
planks were adopted in addition to
those passed previously :
13—The right to refer all franchises and subsidies to the electorate.
13—Declaration of election day
aB a public holiday with four hours
reserved to allow all employes to
vote,
15—Farm lands and implements
to be exempt from taxation and
wild lands to be assessed at the
price asked by holders.
16—No land subsidies to be
granted.
17—Ten per cent, of public lands
to be set aside for a revenue for
education, and that children up to
16 years be given free books and
meals and clo'hing when necessary.
18— Municipalizition and public
control of the liquor traffic.
The chief arguments of the day
centered around the referendum
And the observance of Sunday
which latter was opposed on the
grounds of the undue length of the
platform and the plank was refused
admission.

MONEY IN PLENTY
New British   Loan  Subscribed Ten Times Over.
THIRTY-TWO MILLION POUNDS
Morgan, the  Barings  and   Rothschilds Have  Secured   About
One-Half of the Loan,
London, April 16.—It was said
that J. Pierpont Morgan, the Barings and the Rothschilds have
secured an aggregation of £16,000,'
000 of the new British loan of £32.-
000,000. The remaining /,'16,000,-
000 will be offered to the public.
There was a tremendous rush to
subscribe to the new loan of thirty-
two million pounds today at the
bank of England. It was estimated
this evening that the loan had been
ten times oversubscribed. The
lists will probably close tomorrow.

HAWKINS
DOWNED
Dal Made a  Game Fight
But Was Counted Out
in the 14th Round.
Seattle, April 16.—Dal Hawkins
went down to defeat before Perry
Queenan at the armory after one of
the prettiest fights ever pulled off
in Seattle. The end came with
startling suddenness. Both men
were fighting fast and going strong
in the 13th round, when just at the
cloBe Perry caught Dal a terrific
blow in the Btomach The old
fighter bent nearly double and the
bell saved him from going out in
that round.
Dal was plainly worried when he
came out of his corner for tlie fourteenth round but went to defeat
with gameness. Perry ripped a
terrific right to Dai's body, Dal
swayed and saved himself from going to the floor only by spreading
his legs. Queenan was after him
like a tiger. He sent a long right
to the jaw and followed with a
right to the same spot. Dal went
to the floor with a crush. His
head struck first and he was counted out.
COLLINS' TRIAL
Further   Proceedings   in
Police Court.
JUDGMENT WILL BE RESERVED
Charges of Sending a False Letter
and Telegram Inquired Into
Today.
The charge of forgery against W.
\V. B. Collins was concluded about
5.30 last evening and the magistrate reserved his decision in the
matter.
Today the charge of sending a
ialse letter waB concluded and a
third charge of Bending a false
telegram 'is in progress as the
World goes to press.
The informations in today's proceedings are based upon section 429
of thecriminal codeof Canada which
provides that every one is guilty of
an indictable offense and liable to
two years imprisonment who, with
intent to injure or alarm any person, sends,causes or procures to be
sent any telegram or letter or other
message containing matter which
he knows to be false.
There was a fair attendance of
spectators in court today. It is
probable that the police magistrate
will reserve his decision again.
He will either release the prisoner
holding that a prima facie case has
not been made out or he will Bead
Collins for trial at the Nelson assizes which will open on the Gth of
next month.
Ice cream and cake, sandwiches and
coffee will be ttrved by tne ladies of the

reported that over 2,000 imperialist soldiers sent by Marshal Su

in a narrow defile and were all

Later.
The situation in the rebellious
districts of southern China is increasingly alarming. . The viceroy
of Canton has telegraphed to Pekin
urging the immediate forwarding of
reinforcements there. Lack of news
from General Ma and Marshal Su
is taken to indicate that the rebels
havoBurrounded the imperial troops
and cut off communication witli
these troops.

veldt is bare of grass and they can

C= *&     dfT**m9**\l*A WW a    _   S    Corner of Columbia
Our old friend, Alexander Dick,
now assistant to the general manager of the Dominion Coal company has just got back to Halifax
after an extensive tour about tlie
world in the interests of his company. We confess a feeling of relief to learn that Alexander is on
this side of the ocean once more,
and hope that he may find time to
visit us in Rossland before long.
Mr. Dick thinks that we should
build and present a cruiser to tbe
home government, following the
example of Cape Colony.
Speaking of tbe coal trade abroad
Mr. Dick said he had made a number of new contracts in Scandinavia
and Denmark, and was hopeful
that the large oneB would be closed
when the shipments to the St,.
Lawrence markets ceased.
While on his travels Mr. Dick
suggested to the British royal commission on coal the desirability ol
including colonial trade in tl e
sphere of itB investigation. English
people are interested to a great extent in Canadian affairs, especially
the future of shipbuilding.; A number of English colliery proprietors
and mining managers are about to
visit Nova Scotia to study improved methods of mining.
Notwithstanding the fact that
the production of open-hearth
steel in the United States was
greater last year by more than a
million and a quarter tons than
the year before, it has fallen far below demand. The greatest difficulty today in every industry of
which steel is a principal raw material is to secure from the manufacturers an adequate supply, or
even any assurances that future or-
derB will be filled within any reasonable time.
Some of the Ann Arbor professors and instructors are conducting
experiments on a new peat-drying
process, with the probability of
great success. It is expected that
the procesB will enable them to
produce peat for fuel purposes at
considerably less than the price of
hard coal. One pound of dry peat
gives the same heat as three-quarters of a pound of coal, and the
only refuse is ashes. The process
consists of the use of rollers, by
which the water is squeezed out.
The peat is then dried and pressed
into solid blocks of the density of
bituminous coal.
NOVA SCOTIA MINING.
Lord Strathcona presided in
London on March 24th at a lecture
on Nova Scotia, delivered at the
Imperial institute by Mr. John
Howard, agent-general for Nova
Scotia. The lecturer stated that
the coal fields of Nova Scotia embraced an area of about 4000
square miles, and the estimated
deposits available were 40,000,000-
000 tons. In proportion to the
entire output of the whole of Canada the province was responsible
for GO per cent of the coal raised.
The increased output last year had
been 50 per cent, and extended
markets were being opened up in
Europe for the trade. Iron ores
of the richest description had been
discovered in great abundance in
Nova Scotia, and being in close
proximity to large coal fields, and
contiguous also to limestone, it was
only natural that the establishment of the iron and steel industry should follow. With these advantages it was Blated that the
works at Sydney, Cape Breton,
could produce steel at .IG a ton
lower than Pittsburg, which was
generally considered the cheapest
producer. Gold was found scattered all over tthe province, the
auriferouB area being 3000 square
miles, extending principally along
the southern shore. Low grade
ores were met with in wide belts in
many districts, and were profitably worked. Gold mining had not
long been systematically developed
which accounts for the comparatively small returns reported.

The Toronto Telegram says the
Laurier government has violated
the provincial rights of British
Columbia in order to keep the door
open to Chinese and Japanese laborers, and twits Ralph Smith
and other British Columbia supporters of the government with not
being sincere in their clamour for
relief. "Eastern Canada." sayB the
Telegram, "is not to blame for the
evils which follow the influx of
Asiatic labor into British Columbia. The people of British Columbia are not in earnest on this
question. The Asiatic labor question is a text for vote-making
speeches. Imperial reasons do not
prevent the states of the Australian
Commonwealth from legislating
against Chinese and Japanese laborers. Imperial reasons should
not prevent any province of the
Dominion from protecting its own
people against Asiatics. British
Columbia elects partizans who
trifle with the question. When
the people of British Columbia
learn to display their earnestness
at the polls, Eastern Canada and
the Laurier government will listen
and give them what they want."

The fi th annual meeting of the shareholders
of the Crow's Nest Pass Coal eompany was held
in Toronto on March 7th.
Th« net profits of the year after paying all
operating expenses and all charge of every kind,
amounted to $207,848.39. After paying a dividend at the rate of ten percent per annum, a balance of $28,142,,89 was carried forward to the
credit of profit and loss.
This company's assets are their coal mines
and the townsi-e of Fernie. Four years ago thia
company had no transportation facilities, and their
st >ck sold as low as eleven cents per share. Today their stock is selling at $90.
The Similkameen Valley Coal companv, limited, assets are coal mines, timber, water power,
agricultural and horticultural land, city water
works, electric light plant and the townsite of
Ashnola, surrounded by the following resources:
gold, copper,' silver, lead, iron, lime, tire clay,
platinum, and a fine stockraising country, and it
is the smelting center of tbe Similknrueeii valley, with a climate that is all that could be asked,
You can secure an option on this company's stock
by paying 10c per share down, and ten cents per
month until fully paid, wi'h non-forfeiture clause.
This price is subject to twenty-five cents advance
without notice as soon as transportation is assured.
The present price is $1.10 per share. Do not wait
until it is too late, but get in on the ground Moor,
and make a handsome profit. A purchaser oi
one hundred shares now, may gain a profit of
$8,990. Crow's nest shares as an example. This
would be a fair profit on an investment of ten
dollars per month for eleven months. We invile
the fullest inspection of tbe company's affairs by
intending purchasers. For further information

NOTES ON LABOR
Items of Interest  to the
Workingman.
PRINTERS JUBILEE IN AUGUST
To Keep Out of United States Politics—Prices Going Up in
Toronto.
The Laundry Workers' union of
Vancouver has 70 members.
Marine firemen of Vancouver
have had their wages raised from
$45 to $50 a month.
The Toronto Barbers' association
is talking of raising the price from
10 to 15 cents for shaving, and 20
to 25 cents for haircutting.
At the Carnegie steel works a
few days ago 35 out of 50 carpenters who asked for an increase of
wages was discharged therefor.
The painterB of Toronto have
declined a compromise of 28 cents
an hour. They insist on 30 cents
an hour and eight hours a day.
The convention of the Typographical union to be held at Cincinnati in August will mark its
golden jubilee, the union being 50
years in existence.
Instead of paying conductors
and brakesmen by the hour, the
Erie railway officials have decided
to pay conductors three cents a
mile and brakemen two cents.
By a referendum vote, the local
unions comprising the big labor organization of Chicago, the Federation of Labor, have declared that
that body Bhall keep out of politics.
The Halifax Longshoremen's
union, composed of 700 members
are striking for an increase in
wageB from 20 to 25 cents an hour
for day work, and from 25 to 30
cents for night work.
The Toronto Ministerial association has declined to hold a joint
conference with the Trades and
Labor council of that city on the
relations between the churches
and the workingmen.
The grievances of the mainten-
ance-of-way men of tho C. P. R.
are to be submitted to arbitration.
Tho trackmen will elect one arbitrator, the company another, and
these two will select the third, or
judge.
CloBe upon 4,000,000 working
days were lost in the United Kingdom during 1901 as the result of
strikes. One-third of theBe strikes
wore settled in favor of the employers over a third were compromised, and above 27 per cent resulted favorably to the workmen.
Montreal labor unions using a
label have concluded that the only
way to secure legal protection for
the union label is to become incorporated under the provincial
lawe when the violation of any
contract regarding the label entered into by a manufacturer and a
union could be dealt with   legally.
After faithfully serving the city
of Toronto for twenty years, a
horse that had outgrown its usefulness was sold to a rag picker, and
the newspapers arc raising Cain
about the ingratitude. Many a
man'B a subject of a similar situation, and no newBpaper gives them
a line—but men and horses are
different.
In some instances it is not so
much the demands as the manner
in which demands are made that
rouses the employer to fight bis
employes. Rude speech, though
unintentional, may injure a cause
as much as premature action. The
employer is entitled to fair treatment, and hiB views should command the Bame consideration of
workmen as they expect of him for
their views of a question. On the
other hand, an employer gainB
nothing by being rude to his employes. Many strikes and lockouts
with their attendant bitterness and
Jobs to both sides, have been caused
through hasty words or actions.
There are but few differences which
arise between employer and employe that cannot be imbued with
with a spirit of conciliation. The
lockout and Btrike should never be
resorted to while there is a possibility of settlement by any other
honorable means.

New York, April 16.—Rev. William A. Crawford-Frost, who interrupted the authors' banquet two
nights ago by offering Andrew Carnegie a thought recording maohine,

Bellevue hospital, where it was
found he was suffering from acute
mania. Drs. Allen Fitch and H.
V. Wildman, who are attending
him, would make no statement
yesterday as to his condition. His

KIPLING'S
TRIBUTE
A Poem That Was Read at
the Burial of Cecil
Rhodes.
The London Times published on
Thursday last a poem of four stanzas, by Rudyard Kipling,which was
read at the burial of Cecil Rhodes.
There has been cabled to this
country a portion of the poem, beginning with the Becond stanza,
which is aB follows:
Dreamer devout, by visions led
Beyond our guess or reach,
The travail of his spirit bred
Cities in place of speech;
So huge the all-mastering   thought
that drove,
So brief the term allowed;
Nations, not worlds, he   linked   to
prove
His faith before the crowd.
Then describing the dead waiting in the granite tomb at Matop-
po hilis.in fulfillment of his vision,
the poem concludes:
The immense and brooding Bpirit
still
Shall quicken and control;
Living, he waB the land, and   dead
'   His soul shall be her soul.
