FERRY DISASTER
Statement of an Eye Witness of the Collision.
TWO HUNDRED LIVES WERE LOST
Captain Daniel Gully's Version of
the Affair—Divers Now at Work
—Capt. Johnson Arrested.
Now York, June 16,—Tho divers
at work on the ferry boat North-
fleld kept at their task until 6
o'clock this morning without lind-
ing a human body in the boat's
cabins. It is not yet known definitely that there was loss of life by
tbe collision.
Captain Johnson of the North-
lield was arrested a few hours after
the collision; but be refused to
make any statement about the
affair. He was locked up on the
charge of criminal negligence and
held, without bail.
The body of a boy eight years
old was found floating in the East
river this morning. Tbe coroner's
ollice attributed the death, to the
Northticld collision and the police
recorded it as the lirst known
death. »
Captain Daniel .dully, of the tug
bout Mutual, said this morning
that many persons must have been
drowned. "I saw the two boats
when they crashed," he said, "and
I am positive that two hundred
persons were drowned. 1 saw my-
Belf more than thirty jump overboard as the Northlield was drifting from the Battery to Pier 10.
That was on the starboard side
and I cannot tell how many went
over from the port side. I saw
moro than fifteen in the waler
when I ran up to the Northlield,
and many of them went down. If,
us the ferry officials say, there were
between SOO and 1000 passengers
on that ferry boat, not more than
500 to (i()() gait ashore in safety."

has just returned from a visit to

removes from the merchant class

It was shown that in his store

Hundreds   of   Worthless
Mining Shares Seized
by the Police.
San Francisco, June 15.—The
police have arrested three men
whom they charge with being members of a combination lhat has been
operating in eastern states with
worthless mining stock shares. The
combination is said to have successfully operated in New York, Denver and Portland. The arrest was
matle on complaint of Paul R Lewis, a local stoek broker who alleges
that the three men offered him 00,-
000 shares of lhe Ward Consolidated Gold Mining Company of
Colprada. They represented to
him that St. Louis brokers were
endeavoring to locate the stoek nnd
were ready to buy it at a big advance over tbe price per share at
which it was offered to Lewis.
When the men were searched
there were found, besides the Ward
Consolidated certificates, a certificate for 5,000 shaves in the Czar
lipid Mining Co. of Denver, 10,000
shares in the Doctor Gold Mining
and Milling Co. of Colorado Springs
and 20,000 shares in the Rockford

WHAT THE
JURY SAID
The Exact Cause of the
Accident in the Le Roi
Not Ascertained.
The Corronor's Jury, summoned
to investigate the Le Roi accident
ill which Joseph Gill met his death,
were unable to determine the cause
the accident. In the afternoon the
jury visited the scene of the accident in the main shaft (if the Lc
Roi and subsequently several witnesses were examined by Dr. Red-
dick. No new facts were elicited
than what has already appeared.
The story told was much the same
as in (iillan's case in the Nickel
Plate two weeks ago. The ghostly
signal was given, the skip conies to
the surface — empty and subsequently the injured man is found
a hundred feet from the station
where he was known to have heen
working. No one saw the man fall
and when found he could only gasp
out "fell."
The deceased's aged father stated
that his son had remarked his position as cage-tender was a danger
ous one, but had never expressed a
desire to throw up the position.
Earl Martin, who worked on the
opposite shaft, expressed the opinion that Gill had slipped and in
reaching out to save himself had
grasped the signal rope and thus
given the engineer the signal to
hoist the cage. It was possible,
witness said, that deceased had inadvertently given the signal in
mistake instead of opening tho
ore chute, but he did not regard
this as probable.

THE AGITATOR.
maiden, "but it we   t oomo   true."
Two mine accidents in a fortnight, apparently unexplained and
from the same cause, requires an
investigation from the inspector of
mines. Will Mr. Dick come over
from Nelson and look into the
matter?
NEWS OF THE
OLD COUNTRY
Perhaps the greatest foreign
"agitator," brawler and general
disturber of the public peace in the
province at the present time is our
esteemed contemporary, the Rossland Daily Miner.
So long as the remarkable editorials, which hiive appeared in the
morning paper ever since the present able management took hold,
were confined to a general attack
on the Turner government no great
harm was done, as the motive was
clear and the public could be trusted to appreciate the zeal of the
fearless but youthful writer at its
true value. But, either wilfully
or through woeful ignorance, the
Miner has been launched by its
editor into a campaign against the
eight hour law and the truck act,
two matters that mining men are
agreed it is better to leave severely
alone.
There is not even the excuse of
a general election at hand or in
prospect fer the next few years to
warrant the attack even for party
purposes, to say nothing of the
want of wisdom in making it at all.
Nevertheless our young friend goes
light heartedly into a campaign of
blue ruin for the mining industry
so long as this "pernicious legislation" remains on the statute book,
and it is quite possible that his
persistent efforts may result in
setting the community by the cars.
We commend the stand now
taken by the Miner, on the matters
mentioned, to the serious consideration of all mining operators, merchants and miners and appeal to
them to use their influence to prevent further mischief.

Speaking to Eastern Editors about
the decadence of party politics in
Canada und what will take place
in future     '      '
Referring to the next leader in
the British House of Commons Dr.
Smith says in the Sun : " A l'rime
Minister need not have brilliancy,
but he must have weight. In this
respect the Duke of Devonshire is
superior to Balfour, though he has
not Balfour's brilliancy, and would
probably make a bc|ler centre for a
government ; but he scenes to have
fulleirinto the background,
In point of ability, both oratorical
and 'administrative. Chamberlain
is clearly entitled to the first place.
But the old Conservatives shrink
from him, remembering his early
Radicalism, and mistrusting his
conversion, not the less because,
like most converts, he over-acts his
new part ; socially he is not one of
them ; more than once be has been
betrayed by his eagerness for popularity into indiscretions ; and at
this moment the country is groaning under the linancial consequences of his .South African escapade,
So Balfour will probably be the
man."
EDITORIAL NOTES.

about the sale of the Miner has
caused a good deal of amusement.

certainly. Its like a cartoon in

According to the Nelson Miner,
the grievance committee representing the C. P. R. trackmen voted
unanimously in favor of a general
strike on the eastern system. The
order to suspend work at all points
and place hand cars in sheds and
turn over the keys to the nearest
Btation agents was mailed to 3500
trackmen by Grand President
John P. Wilson, B. R. T. The
strike is to take effect on June 17.
Mr. Shaughnessy notified the committee that the company had no
answer to make to their letter. It
is reported that the engineers and
conductors have pledged their
aid to the striking trackmen. The strike may, therefore,
assume very serious dimensions
and shut up the whole eastern system.

A SCAB TRIO
LEAVE CAMP
Came Here to Make Trouble and Were Escorted
Further South.
Goodeve   Bros.,
Druggists and .Stationers.
It pays to deal with Goodeve Bros.
brandishing a rifle and declaring
that he and his companions would
not leave until they were good and
ready.
Later on at the Clifton hotel the
men nearly occasioned a riot by-
shouting out in the bar room "that
they had made scab towns out of
Butte camps and were going to
make Rossland one." It was with
great difficulty that the union men
present were kept away from
the trio but fortunately Chief
of Police Frank Vaughn hearing of the disturbance hurried
to the scene and took the men to
headquarters very promptly.
On searching the men the chief
found several cartridges and plain
evidence that they had been armed
and later on, in searching their
rooms at the Central hotel, a Savage 303 rifle No. 13276, made in
Utica, N. Y., all ready and loaded
for use, and a No. 12 breech-loading shotgun, were found. Earlier
in the evening at the Central hotel
one of the men was seen to conceal
ii weapon—supposed to be a knife
—up his sleeve, making the statement that he would "flx that secretary" if he bothered him.
Chief Vaughn very sensibly kept
the men locked up all night so
that they created no further, disturbance and this morning, acting
on the chief's advice, the three
beauties took the noon train for
Northport.
There was a large crowd of union
men at the station but no. disturbance took place.     The   Northport
union men were duly notified and
s ii-
can be counted upon  to' keep   the
three "moving south."
But for the prompt action of the
chief the men would certainly have
caused trouble here last night.

Three well known "Scab" characters named A. Blomguist, W. T.
Jones and Harry R. Holmes, arrived in Rossland on Wednesday
evening. They had como to North-
port to work against the strikers
from Wardnor, Idaho, but were
"passed on" from the smelter town
by tin? union men there.
Hearing of their arrival here
Frank Woodside, secretary ol the
Miners' Union here! looked the men
up and ascertaining their oharfioter
and intention to create trouble in
Rossland strongly advised them to
quit the camp. This the m«n
finally agreed to do but evidently
changed their mind as they were
next heard of in front of the Salvation Army barracks last night
