Over in London efforts are being
made to turn over the affairs of the
Rossland Great Western and the;
Kootenay mines.
A circular issued lo shareholders asks for sixpence a share to
form a fund with which to take
legal action to set aside the sale el
the properties to the companies in
question and to make the promoters and others refund monies paid
tbem on the original deal.
In the delightful tangle Whitaker Wright has caused in the
affairs of both, those corporations
it is hot at all easy to understand
just what the move means. The
Financial News is opposing the
action and doing its best to discountenance it.
' " It is generally understood that
the B. A. C. .were the purchasers of
all the properties now held by tbe
Le Roi No. 2,- Rossland Great
Western and the Kootenay mines
and- some additional claims as
welt, In the lirst instance the
Bast and West Le Roi companies
were started and subsequently'
the companies in question
were formed and of the properties originally purchased by the
B. A. C, except the Le Roi mine
almost all were turned over to
them. This left the original East Le
Roi company with a part interest
in a valuable prospect known as the
Grey Eagle, and the West Le Roi
company as the proud possessor of
some fractions aud a prospect or
so on Red mountain, ,
Mr. Wright, however, continued
to play with the shares of the EaBt
['and WestLe Roi companies and
they figure in the compulsory
winding up of the London and
Globe and the B. A. C.
What the outcome'of the effort
now being made in' London will be,
whether it is a bona fide one or
merely another tustle between the
stock jobbers is not yet clear but
the investigation now in progress
in the courts may assist in explaining several matters of interest in. Rossland.
It is to be hoped that one "result
at least will follow in London and
that is the clearing out of Whitaker Wright and his friends from
all their holdings iu the Kootenays
of whatever kind. Rossland has
had enough of Whilaker Wright.

'   SMMMssMHSB
Chinese Cooks Got Badly Scared But Were Quieted--
The Fog Lay Like a Blanket Over the Sea-
Divers Are Now at Work.
Vancouver, October 15.—An ef-}
fort will be made early in the week
to float the steamer Hating, which
was wrecked on Saturday afternoon ■•
off tlie Western side of Jarvis island, when on her way down lrom
Skagway.
Captain Gosse has made a thor
ough examination of the ship with
a diver sent from this city, and
finds that with pumping out her
stern it will be an easy matter to
float her. The forward bulkheads
are still holding solid, and there is
comparatively little water in her
hold.
Passengers who arrived here by
the. Willapa all declare that the accident could not possibly have been
avoided and that the captain and
officers acted in the best way possible. Even after the boat struck
and was grating against the rooks,
passengers leaning over the rail
could not see the rocks that grated
the ship's side ten feet out of water.
The fog lay like a blanket over
the sea.
The ship had been carried only
one hundred and fifty yards out of
her course, and luckily went into a
sort of natural cradle between the
rocks. The orders of the captain
were obeyed implicitly, and in less
than half an hour all the passengers and their valuables were safely
ashore. Just after the first grating
of the keel against the rocks caused
a shiver to go through the ship, tbe
Chinese cooks fan on deck. They
thought the ship was sinking and
made a rush for one "of the boats.
One carried a long knife and yelled
that he was going out in one of the
boats! Then he raced . along tbe
deck in a frenzy of fear and had to
be secured by sailors before he
could be quieted. Some of tbe
women rushed for life belts, but
there was no panic
The captain had been feeling his
way along the narrow passage for
half a dozen miles.'" He lhad been
judging the distance from shore by
means of echoes from blasts of his
whistle against the-forests of the
Texada side of the channel.

THE END OF
AL GEISER
Both Appeals   Dismissed
with Costs in Supreme
Court Yesterday.
At the conclusion of Mr. Daly's
argument yesterdry in the supreme
court before Mr. Justice Walkem.
The court at onco gave judgement
Jon the objection to the appeal
raised by Mr. MaeNeill.
- The learned judge held that the
marked cheque of Messrs. Daly
and Hamilton was not a satisfaction of the rule which requires the
appellant to enter into a recognizance before appealing.
Accordingly the appeals on Geiser's behalf in the two cases decided
by the police magistrate on the
17th of last month are both dismissed with costs and the judgment-of Mr. Boultbee is allowed to
stand.
W. L. McDonald is entitled to
receive one half of the fines inflicted, .275, but the whole amount
will be paid over to the receiver
general of Canada in the first instance.
There is no provision for repaying Mr. McDonald for the costs
inourred in inforcing the law.
So far as Rossland is concerned
Geiser will only be remembered
now as a sort of unpleasant
dream.
WILLFUL
MURDER
Verdict of Coroner's Jury
at Victoria in the Hill
Case.
Instantly Kill.,).
St. Marys, Ontario, October 15.—
Mrs Richard Cannon was struck by
a Grand Trunk train today while
crossing the track a mile from here
and instantly killed.
. Victoria, Oct. 15.—The coroner's
jury last evening brought in a verdict of willful murder in the case
of sapper Hill of the Royal Engineers, who shot and instantly killed
gunner Clinnick of the Royal Artillery,.
At the inquest it came out that
the shot was intended for gunner
Mahoney, who was sitting opposite
Clinnick at the card table in the
canteen where the shooting occurred. Hill borrowed a carbine
and went to the canteen to shoot
Mahoney but for what reason nobody knows, Mahoney himself saying that he can conceive of no
reason for it.
Hon. Smith Curtis, M. P. P.,
arrived from the coast via Nelson
last night.
The member for Rossland was a
busy man today but found time to
say that although times were quiet
over in the Similkameen country
ha had closed a deal for bis town-
site at the foot of Copper and Kennedy mountains known as Copper-
field.
Mr. Curtis ridiculed the idea of
the premier having 22 followers in
the house. "It is doubtful" said
Mr. Cnrtis, '"if Mr. Dunsmuir can
muster 14 supporters and as a matte*
of fact a majority of the members
are pledged to vote a want of confidence in the government when
the opportunity offers.
"When Mr. Dnnsmuir retires a
coalition government will doubtless be formed for tbe purpose of
passing a redistribution act and
other pressing matter if they oan
be agreed upon.
"Although the government
would, meet signal defeat on the
assembling of the house one of the
ministers has stated that it may
not meet until April or May,which
means that nothing is to bo done
meantime for the relief of business
in the country by instituting a
vigorous policy of development.
It is also stated that the Hon. Mr.
Prentice will start next week for
England to negotiate for a loan of
$5,000,000 for which provision was
made by the Public Works' Loan
Act.
"A general election is not unlikely to come in the near future and
ih my opinion it will be run upon
party lines of which I am heartily
in favor."

END OF GEISER.
Rossland has probably  seen the
last of Albert Geiser, the celebrated
scab herder, who  was  to run  the
'mine_ on a  paying  basis   for   all
hands.
At the supremo court yesterday
both of the appeals from the police
magistrate's decision were thrown,
out with costs and as a result tbe
1.550 in fines will, go tp the receiver general's oflice. The $200 put
up for costs of the appeal will go
to the successful lawyer and by the
time that Messrs, Daly and Hamilton are settled with for defending
good, kind Mr. Geiser the spm
thrown away over the operation
will total an ,even thousand dol-
lais.
The amount is not a great one
for the Rossland Great Western
company to pay, but it would have
been better to have applied the
sum in payihg carmen tbe same
wage as all other mining companies are doing.
JUSTICE ONLY.
There are some good people in
Rossland who are apparently under
the impression that in asking for
the honest enforcement of the Alien
Labor Act, the union men are seeking a favor of some magnitude at
the hands'of tbe Dominion Government, and that in any event the
t6rms of the act should not be'ear-
ried out except as a species of last
resort.
In demanding that the plain
terms ol one of the Canadian Statutes should be strictly carried out
the Unioti men are asking no favors
whatever. By the act of one of
their numbers the Miners' Union
has brought Al GeiBer, the Oregon
contractor, to time, and has obtained sufficient evidence to demonstrate to ariy one who really desires
to learn the facts, that the terms
of the law in question have been
openly and persistently set at dofi-
ance by Bernard McDonald in his
capacity as manager of the LeRoi
Mining companies. Geiser, as every
one here well knows, waB merely
used as a cloak in order to get the
Missourians and other aliens here
in the first instance. The Oregon
man has duly departed and the
game has gone on- swimingly ever
since.
The evidence taken by the Police
Magistrate would convince any disinterested 'person as to what was
being done, and indeed the Magistrate in his written judgment had
no difficulty in arriving at a definite
conclusion as to the real meaning
of Geiser's employment and as to
the flagrant breaking of the law.
It never should have been necessary for a private citizen to pfoBe-
cute this law breaking alien. The
fact that the statute permits a private prosecution if thought desirable, doeB not for a moment relieve
the government from performing
its plain duty in a matter of bo
much importance to the community
as the present case. It was not an
isolated instance or a caBe in which
a few men were bt ing brought into
Canada.. The outsiders wore opon-
ly advertised for, openly contracted
for and openly brought in here by
the carload. In some instances,
as a matter of precaution, they were
held off at Northport for a Bhort
period and then brought to the
mines, but the plain plan adopted
has already been disclosed and
made clear by tho sworn evidence
before the police magistrate.
In demanding the enforcement
of the act the union men are simp-
ly---a8king for that which should
have been carried out in the first
instance without any request.
When the act was amended last
session it was presumed that the
government—a liberal government
—would do its whole duty if occasion happened. It apparently remains to be seen whether the Minister of Justice will enforce the
terms of the statute now, as hej
should have done the moment tlie
facts of the caie were placed before
him. Not to enforce the act under
the circumstances is an open and
distinct favor to rich and important mining companies. To inforce
the law is a simple act of justice,
and it is strange that any one but
a hide bound partizan in the pending dispute should try and prevent
it.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The fact that this is the first
scab pay day in the history of"
Rossland and that the police commissioners thought it necessary
to appoint four "specials" for the
occasion needs no comment.
Tbe moral reform crusades of
New York City show how small
a percentage of the population is
really interested, financially, in
municipal economy. The proportion of property owners is small
and seems to be growing smaller,
and the tenants feel that if the
operations of Tammany are suspended, if clean streets,good parks,
cheap public services and safe
municipal government are established, they will pay for it in increased rents.
The Ottawa correspondent of the
Victoria Times wires his paper on
the alien labor question here as
follows:
" The question at issue concerns
the deportation of aliens. If it can
be proved by the labor unions that
the foreign miners now at work
were brought into Canada under
the Bame circumstances as those
miners respecting whom convictions
have already been made, then the
deportation oan be proceeded with."
There should be no great difficulty in, Mr. Williams proving to
the government what'every one ih
Rossland knows. The two prosecutions were simply sample cases.

Physicians have long told their
patients that the time to stop eating was before the 'arrival of the
feeling that one has had enough,
but the advice has almost always
been inoperative because, as one
patient expressed it, how do you
know that you are sufficiently
near the sensation to cease before
it is actually upon you? That
picturesque paper the Atchison
Globe, maintains that a lady of
that city has devised a method ol
being sure about it, which she
proposes to have patented for the
benefit of other obese and dyspeptic women. A little alarm bell is
set in her garments, made to go off
when the pressure of the stomach
from eating amounts to a certain
number of pounds to the square
inch. The inventor sayB it has
been more benefit to her than a
dozen doctors, and, although the
tale at first glance seems a trifle
apocryphal, it may nevertheless bo
true.

To the Citizens and Business Men of Rossland and Vicinity and to the General Public 1
The Le Roi mine manager has been circulating a report that the strike here is practically at an end and the mines are about to resume. This report has been taken up by their
organ, the Morning Miner, and sent oiit over the country as a true report 6f 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 has 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 the smelter in operation. Now, if it
takes eight and three fourths months to secure the 500 men necessary to start the sfnelief
it will take twice that many, or seventeen and one-half months, to secure 1000 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 entirfc
country west of the Mississippi river, and has been able to start but two of the five furnaces
at the Northport smelter. This is the success he boasts. He Claims the 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 ca'rload on August 2.. That it waii .he'Kighest irt vilae 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 of 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 the mines 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 ' thifc
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
eight weeks?   And as yet there is not a miner in the lot.
We are not deceiving the miners of Rossland by false promises. 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.
Thte 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 certairily is not when we consider the almost
unbroken line of successes which have thus far attended our efforts.

TO STUDY LABOR
Resolutions Passed at Tri-
enial Convention.
AN   INDUSTRIAL   COMMITTEE

men -Arbitrate if Requested—
A Move for Peace.
San Frinciiwo, Oct. 15.—An important resolution to be presented
to the general convention of the
Episcopal church will be
tee on the state of ' tho
one drawn up by the cominit-
church relative to the disagreements
between employers arid employes.
After a brief preamble Stating that
it ii the divine Mission of the
ohulfoh to be a mediator the resolu
tion continues :
" Resolved, the house of bishops
concurring, that a joint commission
of both houses, to consist of three
bishops, three presbyters and three
laymen, be appointed (the bishops
in such manner hb the house of
bishops shall deterriine, and the
other members by the president of
the house) as a standing committee
upon the relations of capital and
labor, whose duty it shall he :
" First, to study carefully the
aims and purposes of the labor organizations' of our country; second,
in particular to investigate the
causes of industrial disturbances,
as may arise; and, third, to hold
thlmsblves in readiness-to Act as
arbitrators- should their services be
desired between the men and their
employers, with a view to bringing
about mutual conciliation and
harmony in the spirit of the Prinee
of Peace.
"Resolved, That the said com-
mlsion shall make report of its proceedings to the general convention.
" Resolved, That it is desirable
that the above named commission
should be continued by reappointment every three years."
Ita attention to submarine defence.
There has been a company of submarine ilaihers here for a couple of
years and they are shortly to be
joined by another company of the
same service. To assist them in
the work the government today a-
warded the contract to th'e Victorian Machinery Depot for two steam
launches, which are to be sheathed
and have houses of teak.
It is announced that in future
the British government will have
the work of the kind dorm here instead of sending to England for
"boats, etc. For some time they
have had repairs done to ships by
local contractors.
