A CABLE FROM THE MINER to down unions Bernard Macdonald to the Le Roi Shareholders. HOW THE MINER WAS WORKED IN All Mine Managers Described as Being Opposed to the Union-A "Fair" Description of the Situation- What Might Have Been Expected. That Bernard Macdonald did not overlook any possible means of knocking the unions may be seen by the following news cabled from this city to the London Financial Times, on August 27th, and published just before the shareholders' meeting. The cable was sent by the editor, of the Rossland Miner, and attention is directed to the statements, which follow. Mr. Gregg, cabled: Rossland, B. C, Aug. 27.—All the large mines, including those owned by the Le Roi, Le Roi No. 2, the Rossland and Koolenay companies, together with the War Eagle and Centre Star, owned in Eastern Canada, have refused the demands of the Miners' union formally presented on 12th July, and it is this refusal which has resulted in a strike being declared and the closing down of the mines in consequence. Aside from the increase in wages asked for in some important departments and the decrease in working hours in others, the miners' demands include the complete recognition of their union—the same demand as is being*niade at this time by the workmen of so many large industrial concerns in America and which is heing vigorously resisted by the masters. The increase in wages and decrease in working hours demanded Would, if conceded, add materially to the expense of mining operations, but the demand most dreaded by mine owners is this recognition of the men's union, as there is no means of estimating what extra cost such recognition would entail on mining operations. Mine managers claim U_4t the recognition of the union would mean the transference from themselves to the union of the right to decide who shall or who shall not be employed by the companies; they also fear lhat it may entail the limitation of the amount of work lhat will consli- a tUte a day's labor. The Mine Owners' association of British Columbia, comprising thi! managers and representatives of all the principal mining companies throughout the province, are unanimous in their opposition to the union's demands. The contest is being waged against the mining companies in this district by the Rossland Miners' union, which is a branch of the Western Federation of Miners, whose headquarters are ill Colorado, and who dictate from there the policy of the local union. Unless defeated now the influence of this organization and the policy it represents is likely to spread all over Britisli Columbia. The strike leaders have succeeded so far in holding the miners together, partly owing to ilie encouragement received from politicians anxious to secure the labor vote. These politicians claim to have advices from London lhat a fresh board of the Le Roi company will shortly be elected, and that the new directors will yield to the demands of the union, and it is largely this hope which is inducing the strikers to hold out. That the adoption of such a policy would be disastrous to the mining industry of the province is the opinion of all bankers and business men, as well as of the mine managers, who all strongly approve of the present policy of the Rossland companies in opposing the'striker's demands. Hence the anxiety and interest of all parties concerned in the future policy of Hie Le Roi company. PHOENIX UNION Election of Officers for the Ensuing Term-List of Officials. I'lioenix, Sept. 10.—At the last regular meeting of tlie I'lioenix Miners' Union, the following officers were elected: President, Henry Eeidman; Vice-president, James Carson; Financial Secretary, John Riordan; Treasurer, John Swanson; Recording Secretary, Robert Carson: Assistant Recording Secretary, Ed O'Brien; Conductor, F, Inglis: Warden, Neil McBcath.

A NEW YORK TRAGEDY New York Woman Commits Suicide Before Her Guests. New York,Sept. 10.—The climax ton dinner party given by Mr. and Mrs. Albert E. Peters at their home on lllith street, in this city, came last night when Mrs. Peters deliberately walked to the sideboard, filled a liquer glass with carbolic acid, and, facing her guests, drained lhe glass. Her action, it is Baid, was brought about'by a reproof from her husband before the rest of the party. After uhe bad drunk the poison and physiciani were called, Mrs. Peters, who was only 26years of age, lugged lbs doctors to save her life. Everything possible was done, but she died some hours afterwards. Le Roi Manager Will Accomplish it if He Can. HIS EFFORTS TURNED THAT WAY No Longer Pretends Friendship- Abandons Former Position- Investigating Committee. Mr. Bernard Macdonald's newspaper informs the public that it is important "some reference should be made to the strike situation each day." No doubt about it, for Mr. Macdonald does not appear to be inspired by thatmanly and honourable spirit necessary for the restoration oi harmony throughout the Rossland district. From start to finish, his policy has been one of misrepresentation and subterfuge. Why does he not at once say that no matter what takes place, his light is against unions and that he is endeavoring to destroy them? He may think it politic to sneer at "celebrated investigating" committees, while at the same time he is endeavoring to put a good face on affairs before the arrival of those representing tlie British in- ' vestors; hut this is a poor, weak, imbecile policy. Mr. Bernard Macdonald appeals for sympathy, on the ground that he has been abused; be should not forget and the WORLD will not forget the vile, epithets applied to men who were in (he camp long before he was.and who have done more to advance the interests of the camp than he will ever do. "Agitators," ''anarchists," "brainless""idiots," "cullossaI liars;" these were the terms freely applied tu those who differed from him on practical business points. Wc asked Bernard Macdonald, and again ask him, to name one mine thai he ever successfully managed? To deny statements contained in a certain pamphlet, as to the hundreds of thousands of dollars squandered on the "Dul'fer- in" mine in Nova Scotia? To name one promise made on behalf of any of liie Le Roi properties, or any properties under his control in Rossland, that be kept to specify any pledge that has been fulfilled in the remotest degree, made by him as manager, and signed by him as manager, in the various prospectuses issued in London? He ca t do it; and after four months of virtual suspension at Northport smelter and two months at the Rossland mines, sworn evidence proved there were but a handful of skilled miners on bis pay roll; and \-fl, in gratify n Whim, lo revenge himself ll| men lie despised, lo successfully wage a dishonest and ungenerous vendetta, he is willing lo Squander money that docs not belong to him and of which he is the trusted cub-* Indian. Mr. Macdonald may say lhat there is to ••be no change of policy on the part of the directorate, with respect to the condllctof iheslrike " The period through which be has I n supreme director is about to lapse. Whether be likes it or nol, there will be a ''reversal of policy," and be knows, or should know, Ilial no such policy as he has cu-' undated, or is endeavoring !,. maintain, has been approved of bv the London directorate, He may oonsidor thai any suggestions of "compromise" are ridiculous; bin probably, if he was paving the money, he might he incl I I tn listen to reason.

Fletcher, Manager, P. O. box 558, Rossland, B. C THE LE ROI MINES. It is perhaps a trifle too early to attempt a forecast of the immediate future of Rossland. A great deal depends Tupon the complete retirement of Mr. Whitaker Wright and his friends and followers from participating in the affairB of any of the Le Rot companies, The gentleman in question has heen forced out of the Le Roi directorate but, so far as we know, still controk the Kootenay mines, Rossland Great Western and Le Roi No. 2, to say nothing of the East and West Le Roi companies. It is alleged in England that the cash capital of these companies his disappeared and that a complete reorganization will be necessary before work can be resumed on the first three named. The East Le Roi company, it is understood, owns a part interest in a valuable claim known as the Black Eagle, and tbe West Le Loi owns the Surprise claim on Red mountain and some other undeveloped properties, and neither of these companies need be seriously considered at the moment. The Le Roi No. 2 has, as we all know, recently paid a dividend of $144,000 and next to the Le Roi is presumably the best fixed property of the group. The Rossland Great Western is well equipped with machinery and has been extensively developed but the real position of the mine and of the company's affairs is at present a mystery to outsiders. The same may be said of the Kootenay mineB with perhaps even greater force. The published reports on both these properties which recently appeared in the English papers referred very favorably to the outlook for them and it is safe to assume that work will be pushed ahead on them when the reconstruction of the companies has taken place. In considering the possibilities for Rossland in the near future it is well to understand that the English shareholders of the Le Roi companies greatly distrust the present position of tho mines and one of the chief objects of Mr. Freche- ville's visit here will be to thoroughly inspect and report on all the properties owned by the four companies mentioned. A great deal will therefore depend on the result of this mining engineer's report. If it is as favorable as we all hope and believe it will be and an equitable adjustment is arrived at of pending troubles the camp may reasonably look forward to a renewal of former activity in due course. It will, however, take time to re-arrange the affairs of tne Lc Roi No. 2, Rossland Great WeBtern and Kootenay mines and the London Stock Jobber may cause further delay and trouble before a final and satisfactory settlement is reached, but if the new men decide that the mines aro to be pushed on and turned into dividend payers, it will be promptly done and with the least possible delay. Beyond the fact that they have apparently declined to follow Mr. Macdonald's latest move in attempting to mine on the Geiser system, nothing is publicly known of the plans of the War Eagle-Centre Star combination. But if the Le Roi mines effect a settlement and start work it is unlikely that the Gooderham mineB will long remain closed down, Mr. Smith Curtis has been interviewed at length in the coast papers upon the recent changes in the DunBmuir Government, and the member for Rossland does not hesitate to condemn the administration and Mr. Joseph Martin and to declare his hostility to both. Ralph Smith's view of the situation entirely agrees with that of Mr. Curtis. Speaking at Victoria on Labor Day Mr. Smith said to a reporter of the Times: "As labor men, we ought specially to tight tbe local elections brought about by the resignation of Mr. Turner, the bye-election in Mr. Brown's constituency, and there are evidences of shifting in Mr. Mclnnes's constituency as a result of changes contemplated in the cabinet. "I think we should be active to fight the whole combination. In the opinion of Smith Curtis, who has been a most consistent friend of ours, Mr. Martin has abandoned every principle for which he stood. "While some things have been passed by the present government friendly to labor, the Journals of the House will show that the government as a whole has been antagonistic to us, and a number of those supporting the Dunsmuir government have been parties to this hostile attitude. "The new minister, Mr. Brown, showed himself hostile, not only to competitive railway facilities so badly, needed from the Coast to Kootenay, but he also went out of his way to oppose the contemplated aid to the Nanaimo-Alberni railway, as did all the members of the government." Mr. Curtis is of the opinion that the present combination can not hold together for any length of time, and that a general election is probable in the near future. 7n7-.\-7 -La7- _ ...

To thc Citizens antl Business Men of Rossland and Vicinity and to the General Public .- The Le Roi mine manager has been circulating a report that the strike hen; is practically at an end and tlie mines are about to resume. .This report has been taken up by their organ, tlie Morning Miner, and sent out over the country as a true report of the situation in Rossland. We have made a careful analysis of the situation here and believe that no impartial reader can see much reason for the joyful enthusiasm which Mr. Bernard Macdonald and his paper profess to feel. For three and one-half months the strike lias been in force at Northport. The greatest claim Macdonald or Kadish have ever made during that time is that they have been able to operate two of the five furnaces at the smelter. It is only a question of simple arithmetic to see that if it takes three and one-half months to start two furnaces, it will take eight and three-fourths months before they can have tlie smelter in operation. Now, if it takes eight and three-fourths months to e the 500 men necessary to start the smelter, it will take twice that many, or seventeen and one-half months, to secure iooo men for the mines in Rossland. Or, at the end of twenty-six and one-half months, if Macdonald has the same success he claims to have had thus far at the smelter, he will be in a position to work the mines. No one can deny or dispute that Bernard Macdonald has left no stone unturned to secure men for the smelter at Northport. He has cast his drag net over the states of Minnesota, Colorado, California, Oregon, Missouri Montana, or, practically, over the entire country west of the Mississippi river, and has been able to start but two of the live furnaces at the Northport smelter. This is thc success he boasts, lie claims tlie strike is at an end. It has only begun. So far we have taken as true his statements that he has two furnaces in operation at •Northport. We wished to prove how futile are his statements by his own evidence. The real truth is he has never had two furnaces in successful operation at one time for 24 hours. They have produced no matte for shipment up till August 25. He claims to have shipped one carload on August 21. That it was the highest in value of any shipment made. The records of the railroad at Northport fail to show any trace of matte shipments on or about August 21, If any shipment was made it was via the Columbia river route and rests at the bottom ot the river. He also claims to be able to start the mines in Rossland. Apparently he does not realize there is an alien act in Canada, for of the 30 employes now at thymines all but two have been brought here in direct violation of this law and will be deported inside of two weeks. He has in eight weeks been able to secure but two scabs in Canada. Now, if the Canadian people should, to his surprise, enforce their laws, even if it does hurt the feelings of Bernard Macdonald, how long will it take to start the mines at the ratio of two every cifcdit weeks? And as yet there is not a miner in the lot. We are not deceiving the miners of Rossland by false promises. We have every reason to hope that by October 1, iqoi, Bernard Macdonald's name will only remain in Rossland as an unpleasant memory- We hope for an honorable settlement of the difficulties here. The sooner the better it will suit the union miners of Rossland. But if it is necessary to continue this fight to its final end the union miners and smeltermen will stand shoulder to shoulder for carrying on the fight. This war was forced on these unions. We entered the struggle full of a belief in the justice of our cause and confident of our ability to carry it successfully to an end. This belief has never been shaken for an instant, and certainly is not when we consider the almost unbroken line of successes which have thus far attended our efforts.
