NOT WELL LIKED American Locomotive Manufacturers Incensed. IS1 SIMPLY ENGLISH PREJUDICE Criticism of the English Press— What Yankee Engineers Say of of the Reports. New York, June 12.—"They have no real American locomotives abroad strictly speaking, and the critics of these engines do not know what they are" so said A. M. Waitt, superintendent of motor power and rolling stock for the New York Central railway system. He was speaking of the cable reports of the unfavorable criticisms passed by foreign railroad officials upon the American made locomotives with which they have lately heen experimenting. "The locomotives they refer to" Mr Waitt continued, '-'are American in make true enough, but they are English and foreign in dimensions, calibre and power. Owing to the restrictions made necessary by narrow and lower tunnels and other essential differences, which characterize English roads as compared with ours, it is simply impossible for them to utilize btich a machine as we now regard as a truly American locomotive. The result isthey get a sort of hybrid affair built by American skill, but on foreign lines, and to meet foreign requirements and .then if it does not prove to be till they had hoped for they proceed to criticize American locomotives." Mr. Waitt went on to say that in England the practice is to nurse locomotives and let them grow while in this country the practice is to run them hard and run them to their fullest capacity. Angus Sinclair, editor of "Rail way and Locomotive Engineering" years ago drove locomotives on the Caledonian road in Scotland, being a Scotchman by birth. He visits Europe yearly and he has studied the subject of locomotives in every country except Spain. When tlie subject of American locomotives was brought up said "Two-thirds of it at least is simply prejudice. It is hard to get a British or a European engine driver to make a favorable report of a Yankee invention of any kind, but they will come to it in spilt, of their pre judices, The American locomotive will win its way in Great Britain1 and Europe, that is certain."

HONOLULU * TRAGEDY The Charge of Bribery- Asking for a Judge's Removal. . Honolulu, June 5, via San Francisco, June 12.—Details of a sensational tragedy at sea were brought last Sunday by the American schooner.!. A. Campbell, Captain A. L. Smith from Port Blakely, with lumber. The mate of tbe vessel, Adam Huher, was murdered by the Chinese cook and the latter after terrorizing the whole crew by holding possession of the galley for nearly 24 hours, during which it was every moment feared he would set fire to the vessel, was subjected to a steaming process to bring him out, but he . shot himself rather than come forth and be captured. When the crew finally entered the galley they found the Chinaman's body literally cooked by steam. The Hawaii Barassn, of the 29th ultimo, by a vote of thirty-seven to seven adopted a resolution asking for tho removal of First Circuit Court Judge Humphreys. The"' resolution states that the judge has been conducting a partisan newspaper, and that he has continued to be a political leader. The grand jury's investigation nto the charges of bribery in the legislature has submitted a partial report to Judge Humphreys but it has not been made public. 2-t Indian Cattle Thieve*.

A GREAT PARADE Gorgeous Spectacle at the Horse Guards Today. WERE PRESENTED BY THE KING TAX RAH FIXED City Council Meeting Last Evening. THE RATE IS TWENTY MILLS How Made Up and When Payable- Early Closing Bylaw-Amended— The City Schools. The Recipients Included Many Familiar Names - Ceremony Lasted Nearly Three Hours. London, June 12.—London seldom had a finer spectacle than was witnessed in the Horse Guards parade this morning, when King Edward presented medals to 3000 soldiers, participants in the South African campaign. The great square was lined with guards, drawn from the various regiments. In the centre of the ground was a purple dais surmounted hy an Indian tent with silver corner poles. In tho space between tho dais and St. James park were drawn up 8000 officers and men of the Guards, Household cavalry and Imperial volunteers, all of whom had served in the campaign. Tbe lord mayor attended in state and the members of the special Moorish embassy, in picturesque costumes, were interested spectators. Promptly at 11 o'clock the King, in a field marshal's uniform, the Queen and other members of the royal family arrived and the ceremony began. The recipients of medals in a long line filed past the King, received the decoration from His Majesty, saluted and passed on. Lord Roberts came first, followed by Lord Milner, while behind them came crowds of generals and lesser officers whose names have become familiar owing to tho war. The ceremony lasted three hours, tho Queen standing beside the King throughout. Body Identified. Lowell, Mass., June 12.—The woman whose headless body was found in Chelmsford woods last Sunday and whose head was found yesterday, was identified today as Mrs, Margaret Blondon of Boston. The identification was made by Mrs. M. Casey, of Lawrence, sister of Mrs. Bloudon. The dead woman man ii'd Mr. Bloudon, a French Canadian mill* operative last February. It is not known where the man is at present. The bylaw fixing the city assessment for the current year, was the chief matter before the city council at their regular meeting last night. The rate will be 20 mills, the same as last year. Shortly, the bylaw provides: 1. AU improvements shall be exempt from taxation for the year 1901 to the extent of 60 per cent, of their assessed value. 2. An equal rate of 12 1-6 mills on the dollar is imposed on tha whole rateable property ou the revised assessment roll for the year 1901, (subject to the said exemption of fifty per cent.)to provide for all the necessary expenses of the corporation as well as for such payments as may be found expedient duriug the year. 3. An equal special rate of 7 4-5 mills on the dollar is imposed, (subject to the- said exemption of fifty per ceut.) to provide for the paymentof interest on all outstanding debentures and for providing a sinking fund for the payment of same when'due, during tho year 1901. • . 4. Tho taxes are diieand payable forthwith to the collector, and all persons who pay the taxes, otht-p than those lovied by section three (3) hereof, on or heforo tho 31st day of August A. D. 1901., shall he entitled to a discount or reduction of ono-sixlh of the amount thereof. 5. The rates and taxes on lands or on improvements, which are unpaid on the 31st day of December, 1901, shall bear interest therefrom until paid in full at the rate of six per cent, per annum. This bylaw takes effect and comes into force on the 26th day of June, 1901. Tho finance committee's roporfc which was adopted included the following. The city regrets its inability to to join the education department in building a brick school building,but hopes "tho department will treat the city of Rossland in tho same manner that it has other cities and provide Rosslaud with au eight roomed brick building before handing over tho schools to tho corporation." ' A special attempt /rill bo made to collect the road tax and arrears of water rent. Tho early closing bylaw was finally amended by the insertion of a penal clause making an infraction punishable by lino or imprisonment. No further work will bo carried out by the board of works except what is absolutely needed for repairs and work already authorized by the council and tho street gang will be no longer employed. Messrs. Clute and Rolt were the abseutces last night, the latter for the first time this year.

Mr. Sidney Webb is an English writer on Bocial questions who has come into great prominence of late and whose articles are being widely circulated on this continent. Mr. Webb ls a member of London county council and chairman of the technical education board. At one time Mr. Webb was lecturer on political economy at the City of London college and Workingmen's college, and now holds that post at the London School of Economics and Political Science. He is also1 a barrister of Gray's Inn. Still comparatively a young man, born in 1859, Mr. Webb received his early training in private schools in London, in the Birkbeck institute and the City of London college, besides spending some time in schools in Switzerland and Mecklenburg- Schwerin. In open competition he Becured a post in the war office in 1878, became a surveyor of taxes 1879-81 in the same way, and still again obtained a post in the colonial office, which he held for 10 years, resigning in 1891 to enter the London county council and devote his time to authorship. His time has evidently been fully 6c1 cupied, for he has written "Socialism in England;" "The Eight Hours' Day," in conjunction with Mr. Harold Cox; "The London Programme;" History of Trades Unionism," in conjunction with his wife, who herself had written the "Co-operative Movement in Great Britain;" "Industrial Democracy' (two volumes); "Labor In the Longest Reign"; "Problems of Mod em Industry;" besides contributing to Mr. Charles Booth's "Life and Labor of the People." "OUT OP THE WOODS." In a letter to the Miner this morning referring to the Woni.nV editorial on the Northport situation yesterday, Mr. Bernard Macdonald accuses this paper with "shelling the woods." We admit the charge and are glad to know that we have driven the manager from the locality mentioned into the open country. If the manager desires to change his policy at Northport and avert a calamity the Woui.k will be only too glad to announce the fact and allow the parties to settle their differences without comment. But Mr. Macdonald must promptly muzzle Messrs. Swayne and Kadish, or their foolish utterances will undo all his pacific intentions. Mr. Kadish announced two facts to tlie smeltermen as set out in President Shed's statement. 1—That the management had decided to break up the Northport union and would do it at any cost. 2—That certain of the mon would be reinstated provided they left the union, but not otherwise. President Shed's open statement of all the facts, including tho offer to arbitrate the whole matter in dispute^ has been in Mr. Macdonald's hands and before the public for a week. Not a single statement therein contained has been questioned or denied, and the mana-; ger's letter this morning carefully keeps away from the issue presented. The charge against the union of intimidating the foreman is a separate and distinct matter. It is emphatically denied by Mr. Shed, but if it were true, and not a mere excuse brought into the matter for evident reasons, why not submit the question to arbitration? The men desire peace, not war. All sensible people in this camp desire peace, and if Mr. Macdonald really wants it what hinder! a friendly arbitration such as the smeltermen have already asked for and which up to date the management has refused to consent to? EDITORIAL NOTES. The following extract from'Hirs- chell-Cohen's letter to the Colonist amply sustains the position taken by the Womm in the matter. The writer says: "Unfortunately these details cannot be made public.since it is one of-the crying and disgraceful defects in the present law that permits the inner working of the mines to remain a sealed book Some day, when every prodnririg mine iB compelled to declare its output, monthly, confidence fn this country will be partially restored; but investors are not contented with having bare totals rendered tq them once a year in the crude, form that Mr. Bogle, for instance^ handles the figures." "They can go back to work" if| they choose to do so" writes Manager Macdonald this morning. But he carefully abstains from adding, as Mr. Kadish did, "provided they abandon the union." If the Le Roi management is not: attacking the foundation of unionism at Northport and really wants the men and the public to believe that splendidly got up "foreman yarn," why do they refuse to let the public have the whole story? A board of arbitrators Would 'settle the matter in one session if the evi dence was forthcoming. Odd Fellow' June i7th. i Excursion to Deer'^ark, et Boundary Ore Shipments.

STARRETT CO. How a Big Firm Shorten-d the Working Hours Unasked The L. S. Starrett company manufacturers of fine mechanical toolB at Athol, Mass., employing several hundred men have issued a circular to their employes on tho nine- hour question in which they state amongst other things, that they have not been approached by their men for any alterations in wages or the'hours of labor but that having thought the matter over they have decided' on a change. "Because we believe that reducing the number of working hours per day from ten to nine will be beneficial to working men in general and no where should • it be more so than with sober intelligent and progressive employes such as we are proud to say ours are." "We are of course in business to make it pay. But we have an interest in the physical, intellectual and moral welfare of all working with us, and rojoice in their prosperity and progress." "We now take pleasure in shar ing with you the prosperity whicl you and we together have earned Beginning the 1st of June next nine hours a day or 54 hours a week instead of 60 as at present, will be the rule in this factory without reduction in pay." The employes at once held a mass meeting and prepared an ad dreBs of thanks to tbe company which was signed and presented by the foremen of tho several departments on behalf of the men. In the evening a great procession, and demonstration was held in Athol in which all the working men joined. The Chronicle—the local paper gives a lengthy account of the affair and warmly eulogizes the Starrett company. Mr. W. N.
