• CALL POR A TRIAL BOX.
There waa an unwontedly large
and interested audience this morn*
iDg at the police oourt before Magistrate Nelson, when he oalled the
oase of Fowler vs. Pollett for assault. Messrs. Maodonald and
Winn appeared for the prosecution
and R. W. Armstrong for the defence.
J. J. Fowler, sworn, stated that
at 8 o'olock on May 11 last he was
coming out of the Velvet door
leading on to Columbia avenue oarrying a milk pail in one hand and
milk measure in tbe other. Witness heard a step and half turned.
At this moment he was struok by
the defendant whom he had not
seen previously under the right eye.
He was knocked down. Ab he rose
he was again knooked down. Wit*
ness then asked to be given a show.
He was dazed. His assailant went
away saying something. Witness
was able to go to work after a few
minutes, bnt he was weak and had
a bad headaohe.
Croesexamined witness oalled in
Dr. McKenzie quite a while afterwards after he had finished bis
work. Witness saw defendant
aoross Columbia avenue on the
previous night coming home from
the dance. He was with a lady,
He said nothing to him. This was
about midnight. He saw them at
the danoe. He was aquainted with
the lady and her family. About a
month ago defendant had followed
him on Columbia avenue and
wanted to speak to bim. Witness
had refused. Dsfendant did not
threaten witness personally with
a thrashing.
C. MoConnell stated he saw the
defendant at 6:30 a. m. on May 11
who stated he wanted to see Fowler.
He was outside the Palaoe. Witness saw Fowler about 8 20 tbat
morning and saw the assault oom*
mitted, corroborating the complainant. Defendant was wearing
a pair of red gloves when witness
first saw him. He was still wearing them when he struck the oom*
I plainant. After tbe assault defendant oalled out   "Now get me
arrested you son of  a  b   and
I'll pay the fine!"
Charles Brown stated he did not
see  the   first   blow   struok.   The
seoond blow was struck when the
! complainant   was in a  orouohing
1 position.
Dr. MoKenzie said complainant
had called on him about 11 o'olock
on the morning of May 11. Witness described the injuries, and
said that they would take .from
two to four weeks to disappear
The blow must have been a seveie
one.
Crosse xamined. Witness said
he had seen worse black eyes.
RUSSIA IS DESIRING PEACE
Rumours Are Circulated Around
Europe.
PORT DALNY IS IN HANDS OF JAPS
Russians Are Defending Themselves As to the Loss
of the Battle Upon the Yalu
River.
New York, May 18—"I learn on
ezoellant authority that there is a
strong possibility of peaoe," oables
the Berlin correspondent of tbe
Times. "What makes the news
doubly interesting is tbe faot that
the war party has urged the Tsar
to end the struggle. The basis of
settlement is to be the independence of Korea, under the protectorate of Japan, and Manchuria to
remain Chinese territory. In a
secret treaty between China and
Japan the integrity of Manohuria
has been guaranteed by Japan. I
also learn that Russia wishes to
oome to an understanding witb
Japan independently of England."
Chioago, May 16.—A special
cable yesterday to the Daily News
from Chefoo, says: "Admiral
Katsoka's fleet, the third Japanese
squadron, began a fierce bombard
ment of the defences of Dalny this
morning. The land batteries were
speedily silenced.
Ru-sian troops were again seen
in the neighborhood, and were
driven out of their positions by
shells. Under the cover of the fire
from the ships, troops were landed
and a oombind attack on the city
undertaken. Tbere ie every indication that the town is now in the
posses ion of the Japanese."
Shanghai, May 16—It is stated
that the heavy losses sustained by
the Russians in the battle on the
Yalu were due to the inability to
control the soldiers.
Dr. Coulthard corroborated Dr.
McKenzie as to there being no per
manent injury, and as to tbe seriousness of the blow struck.
Augustus Pollett describing the
assault said it began by his re
marking that "You are the man
I'm looking for, you'll not get
away from me this time." Com
plainant dropped his cans and
with that witness knooked him up
against the wall, and then again,
striking him about three times before he fell. Witness stepped
away to let him get up. Complainant went out in the street and made
remarks about a certain young
lady, and witness stepped over towards him and told him to drop
the subjeot. On tbe previous
evening oomplainant had made
fun of witness and a youug lady,
jeering and whist'ing, both in tbe
danoe hall and in tbe etreet Tbis
conduct had been going on for
weeks. Witness took the young
lady bome and came back looking
for oomplainant. Defendant had
warned him previously if he did
not stop bis jeering he would get
after him properly when and where
oomplainant would not know.
Cross-examined. Witness did
not strike complainant the first
time until his milk vessels were on
tbe sidewalk, nor tbe second time
until ha was on his feet. The first
time of the jeering wae on New
Year Eve at a danoe. The jeering
was all in actions. There were no
words. A subsequent occasion
was at Odd Fellows Hall abont
Maroh. Also other occasions. The
jeering wae whistling and hooting.
Witness had information that complainant bad whistled and jeered
at him at the hall, but not in hie
bearing the night before the assault.
J. J. Fowler recalled denied
jeering and said that when he
he whistled it was for his dog.
Peroy White gave evidence aB to
the good character of the defendant. Knew the oomplainant but
did not want him in the house.
The evidence was here objected to.
It was offered to show that tbe
father of the young lady, an old
man, had threatened to thrash the
complainant. Tbis was held to be
inadmissable.
For the prosecution Mr. Maodonald said that the assault was premeditated and was made from behind upon a man with his hands
full.
Mr. Armstrong admitted tbe
assault, said it was not grave and
declared that no man would put up
with the insult given to the defendant especially as the law provides
no remedy, He pleaded a moderate fine.
Mr. Maodonald pointed out tbat
the defendant had offered to pay
for the assault at the time.
The oourt found the defendant
guilty, and sentenoed 150 or three
months imprisonment, and coats ot
prosecution, and in default, a further imprisonment of two months.

WATER CONCENTRATION IV.
In dealing with tbe proouriDg of
waiter from this oamp it has already been shown that it would be
cheaper to  bring   tbe water   here
than to take the ore elsewhere to
water.   There iB plenty of water
available.   The first trouble in tbe
way haa been the peculiar claims
aetnpby the War Eagle people.
These present a rather formidable
case on paper, but the chances are,
according to eminent legal opinion,
that the paper caBe v ould be found
to be a house'of cardB if a real issue
oame up.    But still no man wishes
to] do anything which he knows
will   instantly   invite  a   lawsuit
Tha Le Roi No. 2 got its water,
but  that   there   waB  no  protest
lodged seems to have been an over-
aigbt.   The   White Bear  hae ap
plied for water, but it is understood
tbat the application will be   op
posed by "the] War; Eagle people
The real thirjg.therfore, todo is clear
away this first obstacle to water
concentration being done cheaply
within the oamp, by getting the
legislature at its summer session to
take up the matter and expressly
grant  to   this    municipality   tbe
right to uee the water for industrial
purposes.   This  alone   would   be
practioallv   sufficient, as   the city
possesses prior rights on all tbe
creeks.   At the Bame time it would
be well to have it understood that
mining camps such  ae this had
the right to beoome the distributors
of water in the case of rival olaim
ants.   For it ie to the interest of
tbe oity to let every one have the
water  at  cost,  inasmuch ae  the
extra men this policy brings into
camp will bring up the revenues.
Tbe next point is the financing
ol the scheme. The idea wonld be
for the oity to Issue bo many de
Dentures to cover the whole cost,
as it would be ultimately, and sell
enough to do that work which was
absolutely necessary. For instance
a 400 ton plant on the Le Roi
would mean that water would have
to be brought to tbe city from tbe
northern branch of Rock Creek ae
well as from the southern branch,
as is the oase at present. As needs
grew then the city would get
water from first one and then an
other, and then the third branch
ol Murphy Creek, finally going on
to Blueberry Creek, and then, per
haps, embracing a scheme to con
trol the water from Violin lake for
concentrators lower down the val*
ley.
Let these debentures be subscribed partly by the mines, more than
one of which have favorably oon-
aidered the scheme, and Eastern
capitalists would not hesitate in
ooming into a proposition absolutely secured from less as this
would be.
As for the difficulty arising from
alleged prior rights on Rock Creek
to be possessed by the emelter at
Trail and possibly transferred by
{them to the new concentrator there
it would be avoided by returning
tbe water taken from Rock oreek

Question
NEWS OF YMIR CAMP
Everyone knows, says the London B. C. Review, that the late
Lord Beaconefleld was no believer
in CobdeniBm. Few, however, even
among hie own party, remember
how dearly he foresaw the inevitable results of a Free Import polioy, and how strongly he foretold
them. An interesting example of
this was quoted the other day to
tbe agriculturists of Aylesbury by
Mr. Coaingsby Disraeli, appropriately enough in the very place
where the words were originally
spoken. For it was at Aylesbury
on July 23rd. 1852, that Lord
Beaconefleld uttered the following:
"I think that the laws that were
repealed in 1846 were repealed
in panio and in precipitation. I have told you before, and I declared my conviction
in the House of Commons years
ago, that if you resolved to maintain the ohange that was then effected you would sooner or later
have to consider tbe whole finanoial syBtem of the oountry. You
had a finanoial system in this
oountry wbioh waa based upon a
protective system; and if you destroy the protective system you
must consider the finanoial system.
whioh Ib its creature."
