Members have given notice of

No particulars  of the nnaiug of
the ore body in the lower workings
of the   War   Eagle mine   which
caused such   a sudden rise in the
stock early in the week, have been
forthcoming.   While the stock has
dropped back again to nearly its
former figure, it   is  fairly certain
that a discovery of importance has
been     made    by   means   of   the
diamond drill.   Apparently no information has been   given   out  in
Toronto,   and it will be  probably
some time   yet   before any official
statement is made public.   Thero
has been a steady   rise of   Le Roi
No. 2 stock   in   London   and the
shares now stand at between  £5.J
and £6.   Two reasons aro assigned
for the advance.   One, that financial men who already hold a quantity of   Le   Roi Btock have been
reaching out for the control of Le
Roi No. 2, the   other, that the advance is caused  by  recent strikes
in the properties and the uncovering of   good   quantities   of higher
grade ore than usual.
Le Roi stock according to the
latest   report   is quoted   at about
During the week two discoveries
of unusually good ore are said to
have been made, one in the Kootenay mines and the other is said to
have been made in the Green
Mountain. Neither statements
have been officially confirmed.
Up at the Great Northern station
this morning it was stated that a
car was being loaded with ore from
the Giant, but the shipment will
not be ready for this week's list.

THE    ELECTIONS.
The province of Ontario is full
of campaigners at the present time
instructing the intelligent voter
how he is to mark his ballot paper
on the 29th of next month the day
fixed for the provincial election.
Now that the redistribution bill
hasieen assented to at Victoria,
the voterB of this province will also
be called upon to elect memberB
for the legislature before very long.
Joseph Martin, M. P. P., is on record as saying that when the redistribution measure became law he
and his immediate supporters
would defeat the Dunsmuir government in the local house and compel an early appeal to the electors.
Just how, or when Mr. Martin
will move is not known, but it is
clear that whenever he does move
the administration must go under
and later the elections must be
held.
Arrangments have already been
made whereby the voters list, on
which the coming elections are going to be held, will be thoroughly
revised, and when this is being
done tee executive of the Provincial Progressive party Bhould see
that the lists are most carefully
gone over from a party standpoint,
A fair list, and a perfected organization are two of the most important points to be considered in preparing for the contest, and no time
should be lost in arranging all the
details in connection with both
these matters.
crossing the Atlantic, and carrying
both passengers and freight between American and British ports."
The combined tonnage of the fleet
is given at 840,077 tons, and most
of the steamers in the fleet are
modern, several having been built
in the last four or five years. They
include those of the largest tonnage.
The capitalization of the consolidated companies will be in the
neighborhood of two hundred million dollars, which sum will about
represent the property absorbed.
Mr. Morgan and his friends are
giving John Bull plenty to think
about these days, and when they
meddle with ships and shipping
taey stir up a question in which
Mr. Bull has a particular interest
and about which he is inclined to
l)e very nervous at times.
THE SHIP COMBINE.
Early in the week there was a
great outcry in England over the
Atlantic steamship combine, in
which J. Pierpont Morgan has
played such a prominent part. It
was rumored at first that there was
to be a wholesale transfer of fleets
from the British flag to that of the
United States, aud a great deal of
feeling was aroused.
The London Times, however,
Bays that it is in a position to state
that an arrangement has been completed under which British shipping will be able to make a good
bargain and strengthen its present
prospective position in the Atlantic
trade. "It will be gratifying to
the British public," says the Times,
"to be assured that the arrangements involve no change in the
flag and little or no change in the
management. In England the interests of the consolidation will
be looked after by men intimately
connected with Bhipping all their
liveB, and who will have the advantage of working in conjunction
with the ablest shipping men in
America and Germany, bo that it
is a real combination of shipping
interests from which advantages
will accrue to shareholders, travellers and shippers."
I. N. Ford in cabling hiB view of
the situation says that while there
iB a feeling of relief in England
now that the true facts are known
there is no tendency to become unduly enthusiastic over the new
scheme.
The combination does not include
the Cunard line or the French
Translantic company.
The number of ships in the combine is made up as follows: Ley-
land, forty-five, American, four,
White Star, twelve, Red Star,
twenty, Atlantic Transport, twenty-
four and Dominion, three.
It is difficult lo comprehend the
magnitude of the new scheme. It
will mean   a   fleet of  113  vessels,

The parliamentary committee
created by the British Trades
Union Congress have been urged to
call a general meeting to protest
against the imposition of the tax
on corn. The trades unionist bodies
are passing resolutions to the effect
that this tax is a departure from
free trade principles, which departure has not been before the
electors of the country, that it will
involve burdens double to the amount of the revenue it will produce,
and that it will bear heaviest on
the poor.
W. T. Stead in his Review of Reviews for April just to hand naturally devotes a great deal pf Bpace
to the death of Mr. Rhodes. Of
his friend, Mr. Stead says: "Mr.
Rhodes' last will and teBtament reveals him to the world ai the first
distinguished British statesman
whose imperialism was that of race,
and not of Empire. The one specific object defined in the will as
that to which his wealth is to be
applied proclaimed with the simple
eloquence of a deed that Mr.
Rhodes was color-blind between
the British Empire and the American Republic. His fatherland,
like that of the Poet Arndt is coterminous with the use of the tongue
of his native land."
John See, premier and colonial
secretary of New South Wales,
speaking at a Sydney banquet recently, said that the time was not
far distant when Great Britain
would realize that her interests
would best be served by giving
preference to the trade of the British colonies, to which she is allied
by ties of blood and kinship.
Among those who listened were
Richard John Sedden, the New
Zealand premier; Edmond Barton,
the prime minister and minister for
external affaire in the first Australian federal cabinet; Sir William John Lyne, minister for home
affairs in the Australian federal
government; and other prominent
colonial residents.

FIGURES TALK.
The fi th annual meeting of the shareholders
of the Crow's Nest Pass Coal company was held
in Toronto on March 7th.
The 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 often 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 tbe townsi e of Fernie. Four years ago thia
company had no transportation facilities, and their
stock 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
Aehnola, surrounded by the following resources:
gold, copper, silver, lead, iron, lime, fire clay,
platinum, and a fine stockraising country, and it
is the smelting center of the Similkameen valley, with a climate that is all that could be naked,
You can secure an option on this company's stock
by paying 10c per share down, and ten cents per
month until fully paid, with nou-forfeiture clause.
This price is subject to twenty-five cents advance
without notice as soon as transporl ation is assured.
The present price is $1.10 per share. Do not wait
until it is too late, but get in on the ground floor,
and make a handrome profit. A purchaser of
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 invite
the fullest inspection uf the company's affairs by
intending purchasers. For further information

BONDED DEBT OF $550,000,000
What   Has  Already Been   Accomplished and What the future
Plans Are,
New York, April 26—Stockholders of the United States Steel
corporation received today a circular letter of the corporation setting
forth the exact termB under'which
it is proposed to retire $200,000,000
of seven per cent preferred Btock,
and issue $250,000,000 of five per
cent bonds thereby increasing the
bonded debts to $550,000,000.
The stockholders report eigned
by President Schwab and Chairman Uarey, says in part: "In
February, 1901, various subsidiary
companies had under contemplation and in many cases actually
had begun the construction of additions to their plants, which in
some instances would have duplicated the facilities of other subsidiary companies, The aggregate
of these contemplated expenditures
was something like $50,000,000.
Much, that at the time of oganiza-
tion it was hoped might be accomplished in the way of averting
wasteful expenditures for unnecessary enlargement of plants has
been accomplished by co-operation
amoung tbe several companies enabling one to utilize the facilities
of the other. However, owing
largely to advance committments
it was impossible to stop all construction at the time your corporation was organizeaTandin order to
finish work already underway
cash payments have been made
during the year to the amount
of $15,000,000.
"It was not possible then to
determine how much of the contemplated expenditure of about
$50,000,000 would have to be made
nor in advance of sufficient experience would it have been wise to
capitalize any part of the $15,000,-
000 that have been actually expended. Within the next few
month will fall due payments aggregating about $10,000,000 for
properties purchased almost immediately after your corporation
was organized."
The stockholders meeting to
vote on proposed changes in the
companies securities will be held
at Hobokenon May 19th.

Only $3.50,
We Fit them Free of Charge
Imagine a model so easy in its lines that the
first day of wearing gives as much comfjprt
as all other corsets you have worn gave
after weeks of use. A corset so beautifully
contoured that not a ridge is apparent
through your dress. A corset so sensible
that there is no strain upon breast or abdomen, no interference with breathing or digestion. "La Vidas" are stronger, surer and
better than any corset the world has yet
known. They are hygienic corsets because
they fit the figure and don't seek to have
the form fit them. They give a chick, dashing appearance to the figure—they wear
like armour plate.
