London, April 2.—A parliamentary paper issued this morning gives correspondence respecting the comparative merits of the American, British and Belgian locomotives now in use in Egypt. In a dispatch to the foreign secretary, Lord Lansdowne, December 3rd, covering a number of reports received from railroad officials, the British diplomatic agent and consul-general in Egypt, Lord Cromer, draws the general conclusion that the main reason why so many orders for railroad equipment have recently been given to the United States is that the American firms are able to execute them with extraordinary rapidity, due largely to the system of standardization. In respect to price, Lord jCromer finds the British firms can hold their own where special designs have to be executed. With respect to the quality the British work is at least equal and often superior to American and Belgian work, while in consumption of coal the British engines have a decidi d superiority over the Americans, though not over the Belgian engines. Thc British manufacturers weak point is delay in executing orderB. The reports enclosed show that the American tenders promised delivery within one-third of the time required by the British firms, while they offered to supply standard locomotives of equal suitability 19 per cent below the British, though the latters tenders for locomotives built on Egyptian specifications were lower than the American offers.

OUT ON STRIKE Ten Thousand Miners in Pennsylvania. WANT RECOGNITION OF UNION Long and Arduous Struggle ie Anticipated by the Men. Dubers, Pa., April 2.—All of the bituminous coal mines of the Rochester and PittBburg Coal and Iron company are idle ti day. The resolutions declaring for a strike were obeyed by all of tlrV men, and as a consequence ten thousand men are idle. The final clause of the strike resolution, reads: "No resolution of questions in dispute 81-ail be recognized unless rendered by the properly authorized committee and the officers of the organization." This means that the men will insist on recognition of their union, and is also interpreted aB indicating a long itruggle, as the Rochester and Pittsburgh company has always refused recognition of union laborers and has insisted on dealing with its employes as individuals.

Fine wines and liquors at the International Liquor Store, London, April 2.—It has been suggested that the train wreck near Barberton, Transvaal Colony, March 30lh, resulting in the death of 89 soldiers and lhe wounding of 45 others, nearly all of whom belonged to the Hampshire regiment was caused by the Boers, but Lord Kitchener reports that it was accidental. The train was descending a steep grade when the engine aud ilyer trucks struck the track and turned over, Details of the train wreck show that after leaving Barberton, the engineer lost control of the train on the down grade and for three miles, it went at the rate of eighty miles an hour. The engine jumped the rails at a sharp curve, with five trucks filled with soldiers, a terrific smash-up followed and the boiler of the engine exploded. The engineer and fireman was killed. Six of the injured soldiers have since died. Edmonton, N. W. T., April 2.— Bishopric & Mollois' livery stable and 18 horses were destroyed by (ire laBt night.

TRINIDAD TROUBLE A SHARP ACTION Alleged British Sympathy for the Venezuelan Rebels. Second Dragoon Guards Catch a Tartar. BATTLE NEAR BOSCHAMSKOOP Attack and Counter Attack With Varying Fortunes—Honors Easy. London, April 2.—A despatch from Pretoria made public this evening announced that the Second Orageon Guards fought a sharp rear guard action near Bos- chamskoop during the evening of March 31st. Four officers are known to have been wounded but no further details of the casualties have been received. The column was commanded by Col. Lawley, who detached tbe dragoons with the object of surprising the Boer laager reported to have been located ten miles east of Boschamskoop, The dragoons found the Boers strongly posted and the burghers were subsequently largely reinforced with the result that the dragoons had to fight a hard rear guard action in order to regain the main column. The heavy firing called up Col. Lawley and his troopB, who drove off the Boers. The latter's loss is reported to have been heavy. Paper at Armstrong.

At the meeting of the city council last night at the city hall the mayor and all his aldermen were present, nearly establishing a record. There was some business done—a bill was introduced for the prevention of the spread of tuberculosis which means that people expectorating on the sidewalks in future will be arrested. Beyond this the early closing amendment bylaw passed its third stage. Dr. Reddick submitted a report on the late smallpox epidemic hut it was turned over to the health committee for report. In the meantime just ovor #1000 was voted to covor expenses. City Solicitor Abbott who has been collecting sums due to tho city has found some trouble and reported accordingly to the council who resolved that in future in case of difficulty he should confer with the finance committee. The question of new sidewalks came up and was referred to the city oiigineer for report. The fact of the matter is that there is no fund to build these walks and unless the citizens get down to the frontage plan they will, in all probability, have to wait for a long time before their natural wishes are gratified.

O. box 90a, Rosslaud, B. C A LESSON. New Zealand has had her trial. She was plunged in a bloody and costly war with the savage Maori tribe that laBted from 18G3 to 1808. She has had her army of the unemployed, her strikes, her tramps, her paupers, and a plutocracy. She has pretty near got rid of them all by the enactment of a few common sense laws. She has made sweating dens impossible; she has nearly emptied her jails and poor houses and today there is lesB crime, less poverty, lesB misery, lesB tramps, lesB paupers, and more prosperity per capita in New Zealand than any other nation in the world. New Zealand has not stopped progress; from now on she will enact more and more simple legislation. Her people are intelligent, more'bo than any other nation. The number of people unable to read or write in New Zealand is less per capita than in any other nation. She has been wise in the past. She will show greater wisdom in the future.—Ex. TELLING FIGURES. "Faint heart ne'er won a fair lady" is an old and true adage. Dame Fortune, that coy but well jointured lady, was never yet won except by the bold wooer. That is the trouble with a good many people in this city. They are afraid. They do not know. They only hope things will be all right but they do little to help that roseate future along. If it was not for the firm faith of the sturdier, wiser citizens of this camp it would have been deBerted long since, Things looked blue along in 1897 and things have slackened up somewhat since at intervals but a glance at the statistics of the town will show that it has adva'nced materially from the incorporate camp of 18!KS. There is really no reason lor this pessimism. Much of it is due to an effort made at lirBt to exploit this camp as one in which high valueB and huge seams were combined. Such a condition is not known to prevail anywhere. The famous mines of the Rand, are hardly of a more extensive formation than those ol Rossland, and yet their values are considerably lower. Hut Johannesburg has always had the luck to have a band of pioneers who have believed in itB future despite the most outrageous conditions with which they had to contend. Hence its prosperity. The Johannesburg board of trade is [no supine rellection of the opinions of an interested and doubting minority. The truth of the matter is that the camp is low grade but has quarries of ore. The only point that is worth considering is the cheap mining and treatment of that ore. In this consideration comes the rate of treatment, that of freight, and that of lluxes. Now what does it matter if the government own thc railroads and the smelters and the coal mines? Itis merely a question of getting the cheapest work done, if the government can do it more cheaply let it be so done. There is no use of jibbing like a badly broken horse if some one whispers the dread word "socialism." Lord Salisbury sayB we are all socialists, more or less, nowadays. It is not a question whether the proposed remedies are socialistic or not. Will they cheapen rates? If not what will? jJJ the RoBBland mines paid last year $145,000 for the transport of ore for a few miles, whose fault is it that thc charge waB not $30,000? If the mines are paying $11 for coke from Duluth, Minnesota, whose fault is it that coke cannot lie obtained for one-third of that price If the government ignorantly taxes the life out of the mining industries whose fault is it that a deputation of mining men is not rfent to persistently teach the administrators the error of their ways? But cheap freight, cheap fuel, cheap llux means that $0 rock in this camp will pay here every bit as well as it does in Johannesburg. And if such ore can be made to pay what would be seen inside of a year? The Le Roi has a capacity of 1000 tons a day, the Le Roi No. 2 of TOO, the War Eagle and Centre Star of about as much more each, the Nickel Plate of 500 and the Kootenay mines of at leaBt 700. These alone total 4300 tons daily, to which would soon be added the product of other mineB, such as the California, Homestake, and half a hundred others, which, in the beginning, would at least double this estimate and, in time, would increase it three and four fold. Instead of having some 1000 workers here in the mines there would be ten thousand, and a city of the size and power of Johannesburg would spring up in Trail creek valley. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Smith Curtis is getting well abused by a oortain section of the provincial press. It is not probable that he will be left alone until he stops working in the interests of labor. The greatness of his efforts can be measured by the amount of the abuse. The Nelson Miner says that the cost of coke is $4 per ton for pro' duction and that there is no profit in that figure. In the same article it states that thj^cost of coal iB $2 per ton. Now as coke is to coal as 1)5 is to 100 there is there is therefore $3 worth of coal in one ton of coke. Hence, according to this delightful statistician, it costs $1 to bu in a ton of coke. Will any com' petent engineer endorse such figures? And will anybody say that there is no profit in $2 a ton coal? The Victoria Colonist is now attacking Sir Charles Dilke for "bad legislation" in introducing a similar bill into the British house to that which Smith Curtis has brought into the provincial legislature. It says in effect that the Taff Vale decision made no new law; it simply put a meaning to the old one. This is playing with words. When a new law is wanted on the subject it is the duty of the legislature and not of the judiciary to frame it. The opinion of the people's representatives, and not of any one person, ia wanted when legislation affecting large bodies of the people is neceBBary, THE STRHND 1 yWmm- ♦♦♦♦♦♦•♦ -*w p FINEST EQUIPPED SALOON IN THE PROVINCE 3 Wz We Carry all ths Best Brands of Wines, 3 H Liquors and Cigars. ^ \\B ******** ^ i OPEN AT ALL HOURS. 1 HOTEL ARRIVALS.

New Zealand built her railroads, completing the firat Hue in 1863. Tho number of miles now in operation is about 2,200. The building of the roads was done directly by the nation, and the workers were, and still are on such work, allowed to elect their own foreman. The pay on the railroads averages about 30 per cent higher than the wages on our American roads; and the GOO railway hands have an 8 hour work day. You can ride thirty miles for 10 cents and first class Bervice iB rendered the people. The annual net profit of the New Zealand railroads averages $2,220- 000. The government also owns the telegraph and telephones, the rateB being about 500 per cent less than "our" Western Union monopoly. Both pay a profit. The workers enjoy the 8 hour work day and weekly half-holiday. The government aleo conducts the express business to the benefit of all the people.—Ex. Clam Chowder free day and night the Alliauuhra.

"PLUCK ME" STORES Factory Legislation, Truck Acts, Etc., at the Antipodes, The New Zealand factories act of 1894 provided for the complete inspection of all factories, the word "factory" meaning any place in which two or more people are im- employed. Children under 15 years of age are not permitted to work in factories. The law compels all employers to grant a half holiday each week, with full pay. Good ventilation and sanitary conditions, the guarding of machinery fire escapes, etc., are enforced. The half holiday ako prevails in the stores, banks, etc. The employers' liability act protects the workers, and provides for compensation for irijury. The workmen's wages sctenableB the workman to obtain his wages 24 hours after they are due. The truck act abolishes the "pluck me" stores. This was enacted in 1890. The Workmen's lien aot, '95, gives priority of claim for wages. ROBBING REGISTERED MAIL Fnr imported winea go to the Inter- I national Liquor Store, Son of a Toronto Postmaster Caught and Arrested.

Lumber and supplies are being shipped from Kaslo. For years it lias been known that gold existed on the creek.

DIRECTORS PROFESS GRIEF Possible Removal of Our Optimistic Engineer to Another Sphere. The recent meeting of the RosBland Great Western and of the Kootenay Mines in London is of Bome interest to the camp, in so far as it will probably mean a change in the personnel of theBe mines, and an amalgamation of the two companies into one. A com mittee has been formed for this ex preBS purpose, on the plea that ae the shareholders are practically the same, and as thc management is also one a great saving can be made along these lines. Nothing transpired as to what was intended with regard to further developments on these properties, and therefore interest centres on the resignation of Bernard Macdonald which, rumored before in this camp and in this paper, is now officially confirmed. According to the directors, Mr, Macdonald's resignation does not necessarily take effect until December next, and in the meantime he is the consulting engineer of the two mines mentioned and of the "Prince," as the Le Roi No. 2 is known on the London stock exchange. The directors say that they will endeavor to procure a wiihdrawal of the resignation, but lodk with complacency on the fact that in the event of thc resignation being carried into effect William Thompson will still be to the fore. New York rumors point to a change being effected in the management of these mines in the person of Captain Gifford of the Hall mines, and a possible transference of Bernard Macdonald to another sphere of action at Nelson, where he will doubtless be hailed with enthusiasm by every union man around. made some money on Bome claims but latterly hiB business was chiefly that of bookkeeping.
