London, May 20.—The result of
the conference of Boer leaders at
Vereeniging is anxiously awaited
here. The government is hopeful,
if not sanguine. The uncertainty
with regard to the decision of the
Boers and the fear that negotia-
tionsmay be still further prolonged are interfering seriously with
business. When the delegates left
Pretoria nearly a month ago to
consult the various commandos
with the countenance and assistance of the British military authorities, most people thought the
long looked for end was at last in
sight. Various rumors, some hopeful, others despondent, have been
current ever since, and today the
eituation is aB clouded as ever.
Sir Michael Hicks-Beach sayB the
government is unaware of the intention of the Boers, but Lord Milner aud Lord Kitchener must have
some idea of what has been going
on among the commandos during
the last few weeks.
The South African winter has
now commenced, and military men
anticipate that this fact will go a
long way toward inducing the
Boers to surrender.

The meeting of the shareholders
of the Rossland Great Western and
the Kootenay mineB companies
whioh was held in London on the
28th ult., and which resulted in
the present management retaining
power waB by no means unanimous.
The following condensed report of
the proceedings has been taken
from the Edinburgh Scotchman, of
April 29th:
An extraordinary general meeting took place yesterday in Lon
don, under the presidency of Mr.
Tyndale White. The chairman
haying formally opened the proceedings, Mr. Williamson Milne
said that he had done bis best as
an ex-officio member of the shareholders' committee to help to get a
reasonable scheme thrashed out
whereby the company could be am
algamated with the Rossland Great
Western company. The main feature of the proposal consisted in the
reduction of the combined capital
of the two companies from some
thing like £900,000 to £150,000.
The assets of the Kootenay company, after deducting claims, produce £37,800 net. Altogether the
figures came out as £32,800. It
was proposed that the Kootenay
company should be taken into the
amalgamation on the basis of those
assets, and by the property being
taken at £15,200, which, with the
similar figures obtained .from the
Rossland Great Western, would
give the new company an available
working capital amounting to ^35,-
000, and a small balance of 2000
unissued shares.
This company and the Rossland
Great WeBtern and the Le Roi No.
2 companies were under the super-
intondency of Mr. Thompson, who
was under Mr. B. Macdonald. The
chairman then proposed a resolution that the company be amalgamated under the title of the Ross
land Kootenay.
Mr. Milne seconded the motion.
A long and acrimonious discus
sion followed, in the course of which
much complaint was made as to
the past management of the company.
Dr. Kershaw Btated that capital
obtained from the shareholders had
been simply used in gambling
transactions on the Btock exchange,
whicb had brought the company to
ruin. Mr. White, who waB acting
as chairman of the meeting, had
been one of the directors from the
beginning. They were now told
that the property of the company
waB worth only £15,000, and that
there was no gold in it. It was
only two years after the shareholders had subscribed their money.
He considered that the whole thing
was a swindle from beginning to
end.
Mr. E. T. Holloway (a member
of the committee and a director of
the Kootenay and Rossland companies) said that he was not in accord with   Mr.   Tyndale White or
the policy of the old board. He
had thought that in dealing with
the question of the former management he had dealt very lightly
both with the directors and Mr.
Macdonald, but he had heard that
he had hurt the feelings of Mr.
Macdonald, who had spent nearly
£70,000 of the shareholders' money.
The consequence was that the atti
tude taken up by Mr. Macdonald
was that if he (Mr. Holloway) were
put on the board of the new company he would not continue to act
as their mining engineer.
A Shareholder—And a good thing
too.
Mr. Halloway said that that was
his view. He considered it disgraceful that the directors in London and the members of the committee should be influenced by
what Mr. Macdonald had said.
(Hear, hear.) He had reason to
think that tbe gentleman at the
head of this movement at present
were more interested in promoting
the prosperity of the Le Roi No. 2
than in promoting that of the unfortunate Kootenay and Rossland
companies. No one in the past,
according to his experience, had attempted to direct the operations of
the company. It was obvious that
the two companies were immensely
over-capitalized, and that fault lay
principally with Mr. Tyndale
White.
The Chairman—Nothing of the
sort.
Mr. Holloway (continuing) said
that Mr. White was a director of
both companies at the outset. They
had heard that the calls were estimated to produce /,'2o00. That
amount was not owing by any poor
widows or clergymen, but by Mr.
Whitaker Wright to the extent of
some £2000. Mr. Lionel Harrison
held the proxies, hut he complained of the manner in which they
had been obtained. He proposed
an amendment adjourning tho
meeting for a fortnight, and said
that if in the interval, after communicating with the shareholders,
he were beaten, he would retire.
Mr. Hunt seconded the amendment,
Mr. HarriB afterwards addressed
the meeting, and staled that he
and a few friends around him had
lost over £250,000 in the Whitaker
Wright companies. Mr. Tyndale
White had nothing to do with the
fixing the capital of the company.
That waB done on the report of
Mr. Macdonald and Mr. Carlisle;
and he would remind the shareholders that no miner could see
beyond the end of his pick. Mr.
Holloway had been in accord with
the board and the committee until
he found that he was not to be a
director of the new company.
Speaking for himself and his
friends, they believe that it was to
the interest of the company to retain the services of Mr. Macdonald.
The chairman said that he was
satisfied that there was sufficient
proxies to reject the amendment,
which he declined to put to the
meeting. He thereupon put the
resolution and declared it carried
by 22 against 11.

ROUND UP
General Hamilton Captures
400  Burghers at
Vryburg.
London, May 19.— Lord Kitchener reports another very successful roundup by General Hamilton
at Vryburg, Bechuanaland. General Hamilton and other commanders have^ gathered in .400
prisoners, including a hundred
rebels and recalcitrant Boers, who
bave caused much trouble in the
past.
Among the prisoners are a
brother of General Delarey and
several other commandants. The
movement was remarkable for the
lack of resistance by the Boers,
most of whom surrendered, after
dodging, without lighting,

THE WAR EAGLE WATER RIGHTS
Cases  Now  Proceeding   Before   the
Gold Commissioner.
The water right casos in whioh
are concerned tho War Eagle and
Centre Star, the city and the Trail
smeller aro now on before Gold
Commissioner Kirkup. At present
the sister mines have succeeded 111
obtaining an interim right to the
water on Murphy creek until such
time aB the city, which has the lirst
right, haB need of the supply. The
caBe is now proceeding on the next
neareBt creek to this city, Rock
creek,where an interim water right
will also be attempted to be established.
The.real fight will come up over
Stoney creek whence the city draws
at present its supply. Here the
city's right is under the charter
given to the old Rossland Water &
Light company, granted by a special act which, it is maintained,
overrides any grant that can be
given by any gold commissioner

LE ROI SHIPMENTS.'
With copper at the present price
says the Trail Creek News, ancl
fuel and freight at prevailing rates,
the Le Roi management finds that
it is not profitable to treat the Le
Roi ore at the Northport Bmelter,
and advises the directors to clean
up all the ore on hand and then
to shut down the smelter temporarily. It is even hinted that the
Le Roi ore may be diverted to
Trail, where it could be handled
with considerable saving. Le Roi
shares went to pieces this week in
consequence of the conditions
mentioned, and dropped to £1, 5s
Trail has every facility for handling the Le Roi output, and it has
always been an understood fact
that the smelter here could treat
Le Roi ore hy at least one dollar
cheaper than at Northport, but
with $1,000,000 invested there, it
is not likely lhat wtch extensive
works would he abandoned. Here
we have more favorable .freight
rates, and cheaper power, whieh
with'other conditions of a modern
and complete plant, make it possible to treat ore at a much lower
iigure, and with equal profits.
MINING GRIEVANCES.
Without going into detail as lo
the merits of a question on which
most civilized countries with the exception of this and the United
States have already made up their
minds, it would be well to point to
Mr. Gait, a continuation of whose
letter on mining grievances is published in today's issue, that there iB
every distinction between a mining
law which burdens the mining
industry without conferring any
pecuniary benefits and one which
burdens the Eame industry by
protecting human life whether that
burden entails pecuniary loss or
not.
As to the returns made by the
mines they are not a whit more
onerous than those imposed in other
parts of the Empire, notably Johannesburg.
As to the difference between an
insured boiler ou a steamboat and
an insured boiler at a mine there is
none, with the exception that an explosion in one case is apt to injure
only the unfortunate engineer and
the other might blow up some
travelling capitalist.
As to the mine signals those adopted are in use in those parts of
the United States adjacent to this
province and indeed are the stand
a d for all parts of the country.
They tell no more against Hossland
mines -than they do those of the
newest oamp in the United States.
That the defective signalling and a
diverse system of signals has caused
several accidents in this province
and elsewhere is a fact not to be
contraverted no matter what con-
Btruclion Mr. Gait chooses to place
on any one particular accident in
any one mine.
The statement with regard to the
closing of the Slocan mines because
of ihe eight-hour law iB disingenuous. Tho mines were closed at the
time, it is (me, but the question
was not one of the law but was one
of the wages paid. Not a mine in
British Columbia or in any other
part of the world has c'oed on this
account. If such had been iheca:e
the press would have been inundated with indignantremonstrancc.
Lastly, "have these laws improved the condition of the mining industry Bince 189(1?" Yes. That
t'is is the case all that need be
Atlonc is to rtfer the enquirer to the
reports of  the minister   of   mines
from'year to year.

•Social standing and wealth cannot
bar the progress of disease when
the common rules of health are
violated.
Impure blood and weak nerveB
are responsible for many of the
common diseases of life. The experienced physician will tell you
that men and women with pure,
clear coursing blood and well
braced nerves, can never become
victims of rheumatism, neuralgia
liver troubles, debility, headacheB
or sleeplessness.
It follows, therefore, that sufferers from any of the ailments reft rred to, should at once take
proper measures to cleanse the
blood and feed the weak nervous
system with proper   nourishment.
For the happy accomplishment
of this important work,Paine's Celery Compound is the only safe
agent; the one great specific; the
only security against deadly disease and death. During these
spring dayB Pnine's Celery Compound guarantees a perfect regularity of the bowels, healthy appetite, sound sleep, good digestion,
pure blood, strong nerves and clear
brain, all of which mean full and
robust health.
Mr. B. Hutohins, one of the most
prominent real estate men in Montreal, says: "About five years ago
I wrote you a letter acknowledging the wonderful effect your
Paine's Celery Compound had upon me after I had given it a fair
trial; that it enred me entirely
of neuralgia in the head from which
I had suffered most fearfully for
over 50 years, and also that it
cured me of rheumatism in my
limbs. In fact it removed every
pain in my body and made me feel
25 years younger. I have not had
a return of my old complaint, and
therefore have to confirm all the
statements I have ever made respecting your Compound."

MR. GALT REPLIES
Still Posing as a Capital
Agitator.
THOSE   MINING   GRIEVANCES
The Mineowner's Champion Sticks
Manfully    to    His
Guns.
(Continued.)
Editor Evening Would:
You next ask me to explain why
a ByBtom of government iuspection
ie unprofitable to the mlneowner.
This admits of a very simple answer, namely, that it adds to his
expense without adding to his
profits. The act compels the mine-
owner, or his employes, under severe penalties for omission, to
devote a lot of their time to the
preparation of ueeleiB reports, not
only regarding matters specified in the act, but also regarding
"any other particular deemed
necessary by the minister of
mines."
Moreover the act allows the
publication of these returns,
whereby the private business of
eaoh mine owner may be exposed'
to Btock speculators and util-
zed accordingly. This kind of legislation burdens the mine owner
without benefitting any employe.
Next you accuse me of injuring
the agitation for the repeal of the
two per cent mineral tax by charging to its account the closing down
of the schools.
My answer to this is lhat I never
did so. What I said was this:—
"When a man is well off a moderate additional expense, although
unexpected, will not embarrass >
him, but if he happens to be in
straightened circumstances it will.
If the citizens of Rossland, capable of active work, wero ali employ-1
ed and doing well it goes without
Baying that the present financial
difliculties would not exiBt. Property values would be higher, no
taxes would be in arrears,and there
would be plenty of money to meet
emergencies."
The two per cent tax was only
one of a dozen grievances, the
accumulated effect of which has
landed ua in our present position.
Your remarks about crown grant
fees I must pass over, for I do not
understand them. That these fees
have been doubled twice within the
last five years cannot be denied.
With regard to the Boiler Inspection aot, you say, "did rot lack
of a boiler inspection act cause the
death of five people last year upon
the Fraser river below Chilliwack?
Possibly it did. And if you are
unable tosee any difference between
the case of an uninspected boiler
on a steamer with many persons
on board, and the case of a boiler
already carefully inspected for insurance purposes in a mine, with
nobody standing near it except the
'man in charge. I have nothing
more to say on this head.
Next, in reference to the recent
signal code, which I included in
my list of needless expensive burdens. You stiggost that one, if not
three, accidents happened in the
Nickel Plate mine by reason of
defective signals which the new
system was intended to cure. I
have enquired as to the accident in
question and find that no signal,
or want of signal, had anything to
do with it, and consequently the
new system could not have prevented it.
Finally you refer to the 8 hour
law, aud you enquire the names of
the mines which have been permanently closed down by it.
I did not say that any mines
had been permanently closed by
reason of this law. But as to
which were temporarily closed by
it, and are still suffering from it,
their name iB Legion. A more definite enumeration may be easily obtained by ascertaining the names
of all the mines operating in the
Slocan in May 1899, and striking
, irom the list the few, if any, whicb
continued to operate in August of
of that year.
Now, Mr. Editor, you have asked me a number of questions and
I have endeavored to answer them.
Will you answer me one question;
Do you think the laws in question
have really improved the condition
of the mining industry as you and
Ire number it in 1896? If not why
should they be maintained?.
If minea cannot be worked at a
profit they will not be worked at
all; so it is to the interest of all of
us to unite in urging the removal of every obstacle to profitable
mining.

Malt Breakfast Food
The Only Perfect Health Food for
Old and Young.
Malt Breakfast Food is now recognized by food experts and physicians as the only true health food
for young and old. It possesses all
the important virtues that are lacking in other prepared breakfast
foods. It is partially cooked and
predigested, therefore adapted for
the weakest stomach. It is the
most delicious to the taste of all
grain foods. It is the most nourishing, most appetizing and most
energizing of all breakfast foods.
It is the most economical of foods;
one package makes a meal for at
least 25 people.
Malt Breakfast Food is doing a
wonderful work for dyspeptics and
thoBe Buffering from stomach derangements. The use of Malt
Breakfast Food for a month will
banish the dyspeptic's woes and
sufferings. It is always refreshing
to the stomach, and tolerated when
all other forms of food are rejected.
It is the ideal food at all seasons
for growing children and older
people. Your grocer can supply
your wants.
Success Assured When the
are Used.
Success in home dyeing depend
altogether upon the quality of the
dyes you select for the work of coloring. Diamond Dyes are acknowledged to be the best in the world,
as far as brilliancy and Btrength of
color are concerned.
They always do perfect work,
and never disappoint the most exacting dyer. Diamond Dyes are
sold at 10c per package, the same
price that many people pay for imitation and adulterated dyes. The
most progressive druggists and dealers will sell no other dyes but the
Diamond, because the inferior dyes
cause so much grumbling and loss
of materials.
Do not accept imitations or substitutes from any dealer no matter
how strongly he may recommend
them. The poor dyeB are sold
simply because they pay large
profits. See that the name
' Diamond" is on each package you
buy.
