Greenwood, Aug. 22.—The R.
Bell mine in Summit camp, has
closed down, after having heen
worked for more than a year. The
reason for the suspension of work
has not been made public. Ils
operations were not on a large
scale, hut during the last two or
three months about 500 tons of ore
of exoellent grade were sent to the
Granby smelter at Grand Forks.
John Hanly, who as been in
charge and is one of the owners,
will leave the district shortly on
a trip to Salt Lake City, where
others interested in the property
reside.
ILL FATED SHIP.
Steamer Iilumler wuh  thu   1'iliU* or th,*
LucrI Fleet.
Steamer Islander, whose career
has been brought to an abrupt
and terrible termination, has long
been the pride of the C. P. N. fleet.
She was brought to Victoria in
1888, being built on the Clyde for
the C. P. N. company at a cost of
over $200,000, and was brought
around tho Horn by Capt. Wal-
bran, now of the D. G. S. Quadra.
She was a magnificent twin-screw
steel steamer, 240 feet long, with
42-foot beam and 14 feet 8 inches
hold, and with engines 20, 30 and
and 52 by 36 inches. At the time
of her being brought here she was
tbe premier veBsel of tlie northwest.

making the net price £11 lis 3d

BIG OIL FIRE.
Burning More   Fiercely   Than   Ever--A
Itlver or IIIii/Iuk Oil.
Philadelphia;, Aug. 22.—The big
oil fire at the Atlantic Refining
company's works at Point Breeze
is burning more fiercely today than"
at any time since the explosion occurred. Shortly before six o'clock
thiB morning another tank exploded and the firemen have given
up all hope of saving any of the
property. The wind is blowing
tin flames in the direction of the
gasoline and napthn tankB and
fears are entertained that the gasoline tank will explode. The oil
ran into the sewer which empties
into the Schuylkill river]this morning and the fire officials Bay the
sewer is a raging furnace and that
the flames will probably soon find
their way into the river surface.
All police boats that were throwing
water on the flames left this morning, so that they would not be
caught by the burning oil when
it flows into the river.

Assayer  Marsh  and His
Solomon of a Dog—A
Funny Story.
Richard Marsh, the assayer will
move his office from his present
burned out locetion to 109 Columbia avenue west. Mr. Marsh says
he is the oldest inhabitant around
this particular point in Rossland.
He having opened ttiere there some
three weeks before Allan house
commenced business, and continued in possession up to the present time.
Among other valuable possessions owned by thisevenly balanced
assayer—all aasayers have to be
evenly balanced or else the:e is
trouble—is a small black dog
which feels deeply the enforced
move of quarters about to take
place. The dog is known to ha\e
a strong leaning to the union side
in tbe present contest now raging
in this camp but it was only this
morning that the animal gave
vent to his feelings in a practical
manner. It all happened in ibis
way.
A small boy, who sol 1b bolh
morning and evening papers came
out of Hartley's fruit store, just
west of the assay office about 8:30
a. in. with a goodly sized bundle
of Miners under his arm. The
Marsh dog, who was never known
to act so before—promptly chase
the boy up the avenue and the
youngster fled for his life dropping
thc copies of the Miner in his
flight.
With the greatest difficulty Mr.
Marsh at length called off his dog.
but the incident, as incidents do
just now-a-days, drew quite a
crowd together. The assayer expressed his wonderment at the
dog's actions and said ho could
not understand what was the
matter. "Oh! that's a very simple
matter" said an onlooker; "you see
yours is a thoughtful and extremely sensitive and sensible dog and
when he saw the lad handling tho
morning Whiner, why of course he
could not do nothing else than
just what he did." Mr. Marsh is
considering the matter and consulting his friends about it. But when
he moves his furnaces and other
valuables to his new quarters—the
little black dog with union lean-
ngs, will most assuredly go along
; lso.

NOTJCH.
ARBITRATION.
It is worthy of note that in the
earlier stages of the Northport
trouble it was the smeltermen who
asked for arbitration of the whole
matter and the Le Roi manager
who refused any arbitration at all.
In a list of matters, which some
of the mine owners contended, in
the columns of the Spokesman-
Review, would be demanded by
the union in the near future, appeared "compulsory arbitration."
Why should the management of
any large corporatioii object to arbitration? Is it because they fear
to let the public know the true facts
of their case, and because they also
fear that three fair minded men
would quickly find a solution of
existing troubles?
The advantages of arbitration
are too obvious to need any lengthy
arguments to properly present
them to any thinking people.
The Dominion  Conciliation Act
now in foree is only available when
both of the contending parties agree
to take advantage of its provisions.
How far the act is of any practical
advantage is exampled  by the C.
P. R. trackmen's strike and theone
now   in   progress   in   this   camp.
However willing the men might
be to arbitrate, the labor commissioner iB powerless to interfere unless the managers  consent, and we
know now that they never will consent.    The act   is   faulty  in other
ways, but the want of a provision
forcing both  parties   to   arbitrate
their   respective  cases, and themselves to the jurisdiction of the arbitrators is fatal.   Compulsory arbitration after all is merely extending the   jurisdiction   of   the   law
courts and" providing a special tribunal for hearing and disposing of
disputes which at the present, time
the law of the land does nol recog
nize.    How many law suits would
be pending today if the consent of
all parties   to   the   litigation  was
necessary  before   suit    could   be
brought?
The almost absolute silence of
the opponents of compulsory arbitration and the absence of any
arguments against the system as
practiced successfully in New
Zealand are strong points in favor
of at least trying the system in this
country.
We fancy that all fair minded
people here would welcome any
well thought out plan which would
make strikes and lockouts an impossibility, and yet render substantial justice to capitalist and
labor and this is what is claimed
the New Zealand Act has done for
several years.
It does seem about time that the
Dominion government was requested to call off the quarantine business at Northport. We have all had
about enough of it and the matter
should be closed up at once. Rossland has troubles of her own to
contend with just now, and cannot
afford the luxury of quarantine
regulations any longer.
In New Zealand the labor union
is a union of all employers and all
who labor. It is tlie state. It is
responsible. If labor has an equitable right to reasonable wages and
maintenance of employment, so,
too, has the employer an equitable
right to the conditions which permit fair wages and continuous
work. Neither is permitted to injure the other, and the real facts
control findings, regardless of who
may be sustained in the special
contention.

The figures given are taken from

The Celtie is 3600 tons greater than

of the Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse,
and 10,300 tons mme than that of

longer than the biggest battleships

Standard Exploration company
and the numerous other companies
over which he has presided] Surely the statements made last week
by the official receiver on the affairs of the B. A. C, are sufficient
proof of the necessity for prompt
action in this matter."
Messrs. Duffield, Bruty & Co.,
writing under dato of Aug Oth,
warn shareholders that the Whitaker Wright outfit will attempt to
hold the annual meeting of the Le
Roi company at once, so as to prevent the shareholders from ousting
them from office. The special
meeting heing called for the express
purpose of removing Whitaker
Wright from the directorate. The
object in the present board calling
the annual meeting heing merely
"to throw dust in tlie eyes of the
shareholders" and shelve lhe very
proper requests which have heen
made to them.
The following circular has heen
issued by the board and is referred
to above:
"The accounts of this company
are made up in JRossland to 30th
June in each year and should he
received here in about two
weeks time. As soon as these accounts have been audited your directors will forward you the balance sheet and report and at the
same time call you together for
consideration thereof and for the
election of directors for the ensuing year."
It is stated that Whitaker
Wright has si lice been enjoined
from taking any further active
interest in the affairs of any of the
Le Roi companies and it is reasonably certain that he and all his
followers will be compelled to retire from any participation in the
management for the future.     Just

At such low prices as will make
