President's Condition Yesterday Very Gratifying to

With Emma Goldman, tho
Anarchist.
Buffalo, Sept. 11. ���The following
was issued by the ['resident's physicians at Hi p. in.: The President's
condition continues favorable. Blood

absence of any blood poisoning. He
is able to take more nourishment and

lo the President.
Buffalo, Sept. 11 ���The condition of
the President continued favorable
throughout Ihe dav and nothing occurred to shake tho faith that tlio attending surgeons nnil physicians have
expressed that be will recovei. Todaj
two moie doOl'S wen' lo-'ked against
the arch enemy of mankind. The
danger from the two sources, was pro-
nounced practically over, Tbe holes
in the stomach proper caused by Ilia!
bullet are now considered healed by
Ur. McBurney and his associates, and
the eminent surgeon pointed to the
fact that the beef juice lid to thc
patient last night through tiie mouth
was readily digested, Sufficient tune
has also elapsed to warrant lhe doctors
in asserting that the danger of In Humiliation where tbe bullet lodegd has
disappeared. It is believed that lhe
ball has new become cnyested in the
muscles of the back and unices its
location should prove troublesome
later on there will never (ie any necessity for removing it. Dr. Mann, in
speaking in lOgard to this today, said
he knew a man who lived for years
wilh a bullet in the muscles of his
heart. The attention of the physicians is now therefore luaisly directed to the eare and treatment of the
wound caused by the incision made
in the abdomen above the navel when
the operation was performed. 'Ibis
wound is progressing satisfactorily.
"Decided bonelit followed the dressing of tlie wound last night," is tbe
way the doctors put it officially, The
slight scare which followed the announcement at midnight last night ol
the opening of the wound did not have
a leg to stand on today, when fuller
details of its significance, character
and importance weie cbtaiued.
The opening of the wound would
not have been mentioned in the history of an ordinary hospital case and
lhe physicians last night debated for
sume time upon the propriety of making it public. As they had promised
lo take the public into their cuiifi-
denco they final')' concl'ided that the
pledge compelled them to announce
It. Their frankness hus alieiuly had
one excellent effect. It has convinced
all who may still have harbored
doubts as to whether the public was
getting the wnole tiutli from the sick
room that their skepticism was un
founded. Another milestone passed
on the road to iccovery was the discontinuance today by the doctors of
figures showing resplrutiun variations
in their official bulletins. The Presi
dent breathes deeply and normally
and the addition of respiration record
to the bulletin wns considered valueless. Tbe President's pulse was
slightly aoeeleiated in the afternoon,
but the change was not deemed ma,
terial aud his temperature remained
practically stationary at 100.2 from
daylight until daik.

Yates of Illinois and State Senator
Templeton called at 1.30 to pay their
respects and also to advise with Sec*
y Cortelvou ns to the propriety of
proceeding with the arrangement for
Illinois day at the Exposition whioh
had been set foi next Monday. Secretary Cortelyou advised them not to
disturb the original programme. He
told thum it was the President's own
desire that none of the feature.! of the
Exposition sliou_il be disturbed by bis
illness. The members of the cabinet
wbo had remained at the houso during
the afternoon consultation of doctors
came away nfler tbe bulletin had
been issued. Secretary Hoot "as
joined by Dr. Parke, who gave the
Secretaiy personal assurances ol the
President's progress suustantially
similar lo those he had just given to
the repoiters.
The Cabinet officers were perfectly
satisfied with the assurances of the
afternoon bulletin, aud of the physicians individually, and it wns made
known that Secretary Hay folt warranted in leaving tonight for
Washington.
Mrs. MoKinley took ber usual after -

doctors bad concluded their consultation.
OPTIMISTIC REPORT.
Mllbom House, IlulTalo, Sept. 11.���
After the consultation which was held
today, Dr. McBurney said: "The
abdominal wound is decidedly improved. The irritation has largely
disappeared and it will all be gone in
24 hours. It was to remove this irritation that the wound was dressed
last night with snch satisfactory le-
sults. There is not tbe slightest sign
of blood poisoning cr any otber complication. Altogether the conditions
are all right, you may be sure of
that."

Rossland, B. C, Sept. 11.���The
Kossland Miner quotes William McDonald, vico-piesldent of the Miners'
Union, as saying: "The game is up,
hut tbat he does not want the boys to
go back to work immediately." The
Miner states that it has in its possession incontrovertible evidence that
Mr. McDonald used thc expression
attributed to him, and challenges the
union official to deny on oath the
truth of its assertion,
A couple of days ago three men
wero discharged from the Josio mine

PLOT TO ASSASSINATE
THE DUKE OF YORK
Montreal, Sept. 11.���The police
have received a letter saying that
twelve Itiilian anarchists had arrived
in Monticai from Paterson, N. J.,
with the intention of killing the Duke
of York on his arrival here. The
police look upon the letter as a   fake.
New York, Sept. 12.���The World

"I 6aid a week ago that I recently
received woid ficm thiee diffeien
governments telling me that plots to
assassinate on? or more political
heads of these respective countries
had been tiaced to New Jersey, the
woik of assassination to be carried
out as soon as tiie opportunity presented itself. I will say now that
one 01 these plots was that which has
been made public by t'.ic police of
Montreal. I have so far beeu unable
to locate the conspirators."

A sensational incident occurred at
Waneta last Sunday in the absconding
of tho ticket agent, John Magnior. De
took with him an express parcel of
money containing in the neighborhood of 8000. The man had been in
the employ of the Spokane Falls S:
Noi them railway but a short time.
He was a married man, bnt had been
divorced, he said, from his wife five
years ago, and Had one son, a bright
boy ot about eight years, who accompanied hira in his ilight. The boy
had arrived from St. Paul, Minnesota,
on Sunday, and when the train
for Nelson passed through Waneta,
Magnier boarded it with the boy, and
enquired if anything had come fur
him, but got off on receiving a negative reply. Sunday he again got on
board and came through to tbis city
with the boy, stopping at the Waverley hotel. At night he left orders to
be called at 0 o'clock in the morning,
saying that he wanted to take the boy
around to see the city. This was
done and after breakfast he boarded
the C. P. R. train for the west at 7.30
Monday morning, since which time he
has not been heard of. As he was
under bond for an amount larger than
whit was taken the company is not
likely to suffer from his action.
From all appeaiance Magnier's action was not premeditated for any
great length of time as he could not
have known for moie than three or
four days before that the money
would he in liis hands, and he would
hardly have sent for the young boy to
be with him when deeing from justice, knowing how much such a com-
nanion would increase the likelihood
of capture.

The compressor which is to be put
in at the Granite-!'ooinnn mines be-
teewn Eagle and Sandy ceeks is of
the latest type of compensating* compressors. One ol other special features
in collection with it is the niter-
cooler.. which cools the air between
tbe low and high pressure cylinders.
The compressor will be put in so that
it can be operated by the company's
own water power, derived fiom the
neighboring streams. In time of Ion
water the power from Bonnington
Falls Power plant will be available,
as connection is now being marie between the mine and the lino of wires,
which pass but. a short distance from
the site selected for the compressor.
For the largest part -of the season
tho company's own wator power will
be amply sufficient, but the connec-
ton with the power line will give
security that operations cuu be conducted all tho year around as it is the
intention of the coinpany to prosecute
operations on this propeity vigorously, which will, in all probablty, become on? of the best iiiiuos in the
district. The Ranu Drill company
from whom the compressor machinery
has been ordered have guaranteed to
nave it on the ground within forty
days, but it is not likely that it will
be here much before that. After its
ariival it will take about two weeks
to put into position, after which operations will commence on the ore now
on hand. A force of men are now engaged inputting in the foundations
on which the compressor will be
placed, so that no time will be lost,
As was mentioned in Tho Miner
last week there is at present a large
body cf ore blocked out ill the workings above the present lowest, or Uftn

During the last year'soine 8,BOO tons

Prisoner Tells of a Plot to Murder
Colonial Secretary.
London, Sept. 11.--Martial Fau-
gerin, a Frenchman, who was charged
today at Clerkenwell court with the
murder of Herman Jung, an old jew.
about ten days ago, told a remarkable
story of a plot to kill Joseph Chamberlain the Colonial Secretary. Fangerin
said he had been the recipient of
small loans from Jung. ��� The day of
the murder Jung summoned him to
his shop where they discussed the
misery ensued by the South African
war whicli Jung declared Mr. Chamberlain was responsible for and told
Fangerin that if be could kill Mr
Chamberlain he (Jung,) through in*
terraediaries, would guarantee him a
fortune, tendering him a ten pound
note to buy good clothes to enahle
him to approach his victim. Fangerin
says when he refused Jung declared
he should not leave the shop alive
and tbat thc latter picked up a heavy
iron, rushed ou Fangerin and felled
bim to tlie ground. Fangerin then
drew a knife and stabbed his assailant
in tlie neck. Tlie prisoner who signed
tho foregoing statement was committed for trial. Jung was a noted
socialist, the last survivor of a group
of which Gail Marx was a member,
They formed th Red International in
London in 1804, In spite of Jung's
reputation of earlier years of being a
violent and desperate Red, personally
he was a quiet and skillful organizer
and waa never specially connected
witli any of tne acts of violence in
whicli his reputed disciples were
involved.

Washington, Sept. 11.--All the
members of Schley court of inquiry
are now in Washington, Rear Admiral Howison, the third member,
arriving last night. Admiral Howison
was extremely guarded in answeiing
inquiries respecting tlie court of inquiry, lie said it would not be
proper to sav anythring for publication in advance of the meeting as to
his own intentions or the probable
line of action of the court. It was
evident, however, that he has not
in any degiee altered his resolution
tn serve as a member of the court, if
the other members accept his own
view as to his qualifications, Everything is ready for the meeting of
court. The impression of nearly every
department is now that taking testimony will Dot begin tomorrow.
Large numbers of witnesses are in
Washington ready to take the stand
at a moment's notice but formalities

Washington, D. C, Sept. 11. ���The
Department of Justice has not decided
upon any steps to secure possession of
Emma Goldman for the purpose of
taking action against hor in the federal conitB, She was arrested by the
Chicago police on the tequest of
Buffalo authorities and it is supposed
by the Department Of Justice that she
will he taken to New York State. The
belief is that the Governor of Illinioa
will honor any requ��St the State of
New York may make for the prisoner.
There is no reason for the Federal
authorities to desire possession of
Miss   Goldman     now. They   have
plenty of lime while she languishes in
the hands of state authorities to discuss their plans and to act later if
they see lit. Secret service authorities
state she was not arrested at their
request and that they bave nu idea of
pioaeouting her,unless directed by the
Depai fluent of Justice to do so, ur
unless they secuie testimony that sl'0
was involved in the shooting of tho
President.
Chief Wilkie said today that su far
he bas not heard any evidence tending
to show lhat the anarchist bodies at
Patterson, N. J., had anything to do
with the shooting of ilie President.
Chief Wilkie denied in most emphatic
terms the report that his ollice bad
received warnings Unit the President's
life would be attempt, d at Buffalo.
"Usually we get a large number of
letters from cranks every time the
President goes to a place," said Chief
Wllike, 'but we did not get even any
crank letters ju&t before the President
went to lluffalo. We investigate practically all tho warnings and intimations that come heie no matter how
convinced we may be that they aie
from irresponsible persons and wo
would have made an investigation

THE PEACE CONGRESS.
The dispatches announce that the
Universal Peace Congress opened a four
I'.ays' session in Glasgow on Tuesday,
Dr. Trueblood, an Amorican delegate, declared that tho peaco sentiment in Amenca was strong and tbat
the U. S. government was absolutely
committed to Tho Hague peace conference. One of the signs of this, he
said, was tlie effort which were now
being made lo induce all the American republics to draw a mutual peace
ai hit ration treaty,pledging themselves
to refer all disputes to Tho Hague. It
will be observed that, Dr. Trueblood
says nothing about the war which the
Americans are waging iu the Philippines, and when tho recent trouble
arose, whioh it was thought would involve the neutrality of Panama, it
was observed that tlie Americans
sent war vessels to the scene of
trouble instead of dispatching a peace
envoy to The Unguis. While it is regrettable, perhaps, nations have
always indulged in wars and always
will do so until the end of time, or
just as long as men continue to be
born with the same belligerent nature
as at present. Peace conferences will
he held and their members may devise
all sortH of plans for universal peace,
hut wars will continue just the same.
This was plainly shown by the fact
that The Hague peace conference had
hardly concluded when the Spanish-
American and Sonth African wars
commenced.
It is a curious fact that contemporaneously with the convening of the
Universal Peace Congress in Glasgow
a pamphlet is being circulated in
France and Germany which is en tilted
' An Appeal for Peace." Its author
is supposed to tie Count Von Waldersee,and it is even hinted that Emperor
William of Germany collaborated with
the count in the preparation of the
booklet. It reviews tho wars that
have takon placo between France and
Germany during 700 years past and
shows that the results have boon a
draw. France and Germany first met
in buttle at Benevento in 1286, and
since then they have fnced each other
475 tiuios without being able to decide
which is tho better lighting nation.
Victory has perched ou the banners of
the Germans on -'4(1 occasions and on
that of the French 2.15 times. The
Germans were victers on five occasions, more than the French, but if
they had played a stiing of toon battles the score might bo even or the
French might be four or five events
ahead, hut to all intents and purposes
the result was a draw, as the French
fought without allies while on numerous occasions tho Germans had tho
help of other countries, Tbe number
of men killed and wounded, in these
���175 hostile meetings, reached the
enormous total of 2,15s,;i()0, and the
losses wore almost equally divided.
A like result was reached in the matter of territory. Alsace and Lorraine,
the bishoprics of Timl and Verdun,
and Fianebe Conipte were tho theatres
in which these two nutions playe.l the
bloody game of war. Alsace and
Lorraine, togethor with Metz and
Strasshurg, belong to Germany, while
Prance owjs the other tenitory mentioned, The pamphlet closes with au
appeal to the chivalry of France for
peace and asks tin* soldiers of France
In listen to the appeal of a German
soldier who had faced tbuiii on the battle field and in diplomacy time aud
again, and had always found them
worthy foes.
Tlie appeal for peace is a most
effective OHO and doubtless will he
quoted by the members of the Ll ni versa 1 Peace Society at GliiNgow, as it
shows that two nations after lighting
nt intervals over a period of 700 years,
spending so much money at times as tu
impoverish one or tlie other nation
for years, (witness tbo condition of
I ranee at the conclusion of tho
Frniico-I'riiHsiuii was of 1070-1 when
the Frenoh were compelled to pay a
war Indemnity of 5,000,01111,1100 francs
to Germany,) and neither gained any
substantial advantage.
Will Fiance pay any attention to
lhe appeal of Count Von Waldersee?
Judging the future hy lhe past it dues
not seem that she will, for Frenchmen, in common with tlie most of the
rest of mankind, are belligerent
beings, and dearly love a light, the
peace societies and thu appeals foi
peace to   the  contrary   notwitbslaud-J

own   shoulders,    but   her  admissions
also revealed that sho recogni.ed   that
she  was in a serious position.     It is
doubtless true   that   the  Intemperate
and   wild   doctrines   ennunciated   hy
Miss   Goldman   in   her  speeches  did
exert a powerful influence on Czlogosz
and this, together with   the conversation   which he had with her   in priv
ate,   led    to the attempt at assiissina
tion.      In   the   United     States    free
speech   is  guaranteed   and   is a con
stitutiunal right, but when it counsels
murder   those   who give  such   advice
me ami'iinulc to the law.     Anarchists
of thc typo of Miss Goldman are ready
enough when speaking or writing lhe
propoganda of   anarchism   to   counsel
all sorts   of   bloody   and   treasonable
practices,    but   when   thoy   arc  confronted with the fruits of their miserable doctrine and society, with which
they are at war, tries to hold them ro
sponsible thoy endeavor  in   the   most
abject manner to shirk, as Miss Gold
man has, tbeir responsibility.    In the
present   instance   tho   peoplo   of   the
United States will spare no   pains  to
fix the responsibility where it, belongs
and if Miss   Goldman   is   guilty  she
will be punished.
Whatever little excuse there muy he
in Poland, or in the other possessions
of Russia, and in some of the otnor
continental countries,for tho existence
of anarchy there is none whatever
on this continent whore there is no
oppressio.i and where all are equal
before tho law. Tho anaichist who
emigrates to America from niacos
whero people are oppressed has
hatred of all forms of governmental
authority aud seems to bo unable to
rccogni/.u thu fact when he is in
a country whole ho has absolute free
doni aud where all aie equal before
the law. This is because Ue is usually
a fanatic of the Goldman or C/.oigus/.
type, incapable uf recognizing the
difference between n liboial and a
tyrannical government.
TIIE WHIPPING POST.
In Frank Leslie's Monthly. Allan
I'liiiniiigiiaui has an article cn thc
whipping pust ill lielavvure and nays it
has prove I clllcucious pud economic in
deterring criminals from committing
ulienses. The lush, he declares, bus
more terrors than any term of imprisonment, and thus the burden
upon the ta.vpaveiH is very much
lightened, not only because tnere aro
fewer prisoners, but because it costs
less to whip a ciiiniuul than it does
in board liiin in jail. Another benefit
claimed is that if jails are consider*,I
schools of crime, as they undoubtedly
are, the number of pupils in these
institutions is greatly reduced, lt is
chinned, too, that Delaware is a narrow strip of laud with large status in
close proximity to it and that if what
is called Delowaro justice did not prevail it would bo overrun with
the criminal olassos from tbe adjoining states. As it is known that ihe
whipping pust is ono of its institutions
it is avoided as though plague
stricken by wrong doei'H and the cost
oi arresting, prosecuting and   keeping
states is avoided. It is hold by the
authorities that Hogging does not
degrade a criminal, but that the real
degradation comes at the timo the
crime is committed and not in the
moment of punishment. It is admitted, however, that once a criminal
has beon pilloried und Hogged in public he is ever afterwards in the particular place in which he is punished
an object ot public scorn, ridicule and
contumely.
Notwithstandipg all that is said in
favor of the Delaware method the
practise of flogging does not accord
with modern ideas of thc proper treat
ment of criminals and is considered a
relic of tho barbarbisrn of hundreds of
years ago. when many crimes were pun-
ishablo with death and as many more
for which tho lash and the pillory
wero part and, parcel of the punishment inflicted.

EDITORIAL NOTES.
Copper plates that havo been in use
for amalgamation purposes always
contain more or less gold; the longer
the plate has been used and the
richer tbe oro, the more gold it "vill
contain. Some years since, in Australia, this fact was taken advantage of
to tiie profit of one individual and loss
to many. In order to introduce a
new kind of plate an "agent'' stated
that he would rcplaoe old copper
plates for new oscs, for a limited
timo only. It was of course under
stood that the old plates should be the
property of the agent. As a result of
this operation the so-called agent
cleaned up several thousand dollars
from thc unwaVy.
Tho St. Louis Exposition, which is
to be hold in 1003 promises to be tho
greatest yet held. While the Columbia

Paris sliow 89,000,000 and the one now
open at lluffalo, 810,000,000 the cost of
the one at St. Louis will be $30,
000,000. The Federal Government haB
been liberal to the proposed enterprise
a propria tin of 85,000, bpo and $2!~),000
for the erection of a government building andj an exhibit, St. Louis has
donated $5,000,000, the state of Missouri has contributed 810,Oiio.tiOti and
subscriptions to the extent of .",,000,-
000 have beon secured. Most of the
states will erect extensive buildings
and the papers of St. Louis think that
8:10,000,000 a moderate estimate of tlie
sum to he invested. The grounds
covei 1,100 acres and the buildings
already planned will civer 010 acres.
It. will therefore be tho col losses of

From Victoria comes tlie. news that
Mr. K. V. Bodwoll will contest Hie
vacant seat thero Mr. ilodwell is
one of the ablest lawyers In the
province, and has ever taken a deep
interest iii public affairs. When questions of importance have come up for
discussion he hns always found time,
even during thc rum of his legal
work, to express his views from tho
platform and in the public prints.
The views so expressed have always
been broad, patriotic and able . It is
a pleasure to see men of Mr. Hod.
well's ability, character and sterling
worth enter politics because they are
certain to be of great service to the
public. There suould bo more like
him presiding over the affairs of tho

it is not the salary or emollumeiits of

,
il, limnt, who was. in tlie city yes- ] son   for   the resignation of .Lord Wil-
Inv   was   interivewod   by a Miner  liam Seymour   as general ollicer coin-
mandiug the British troops in Hriiish
ti
r.porter at the Hume.
'���In a hurried visit across suoh an
lunnonse territory as lhe lloimnion of
Canada," he suid, "and without thut
aiport knowledge that is absolutely
necessary for correct information,
one's impressions may be of nu illti-
K,iv oharacter. With the commercial agiivinltnrBl and industrial in-
lerests 1 am familiar, but my impressions of the great west and its miu*
oral resounds aie not so accurate,
lining derived not from personal information, but from information
derived from other sources anil necessarily influenced by either success or
misfortune, I have, couio in contast
with bright, brainy business men who
nil have unbounded confidence in the
iitliuiatu future of the western por-
tion of Canada and have found the
people with whom I have come in
contact industrious, enterprising and
progressive aud tbey think that I'arli-
ameiit cannot do too much to encotii-
uge the development of this portion
of the country. Judging from ray
otaervntion of the C. P, 1!. and tha
immense sums of money that tbey
have expended in the Northwest and
British Columbia, indicates tlio conn
tlence which Ihey have and realising
that ihey are among the brainest
mun we have in this country I don't
think Palnaiuent would make any
mistake in following their example
ami grant any reasonable request that
might einiuato from this section ofthe

"1 Uml the labor trouble? which are
always serious, are a subject of considerable apprehension bore and the
sooner that capital and labor adjust
tlinr difficulties the sooner will
British Columtla's future prosp.eii,ty
be assured.
"With regard to the Oriental question, I am not sufficiently acquainted
from personal observation to express
nn opinion of any value out I would
assume that tbe people who coino in
daily contaot with the situation Know
best what is in the interest of thai*
ptovince. For Imperial reasons the
wishes of the people In this respect
have uot prevailed as the liritisli Co-
l'.unbia bill excluded Japanese as well
as Chinese hut I am inclined to think
that had the hill confined itself to
Chinese immigration tbo opposition
to it. would have been less pronounced.
tif course uut'l the report of the
Uneutnl commission is pieBen,ted to
Paillnment it is impu.-sible to
prophesy what action tbe Dominion
Government will take to grant the re
lief asked for.
"With respect to the scenery along
the line of the C. P. il. I can only ex-
p'resa my unbounded admiration and
with the efforts that the company has
put forth to secure the comforts of its
passengers. From Toronto, through
the lakes and over the western line
everything is first class. The hotel
accommodation is not surpassed in this
country aud always reasonable in
price. Everything that I came in contact with that was under the control
of the C. P, K. appears to be oily a
pari of a harmonious wholo. The engineering dillieullios lhat have been
overcome in the construction of this
line must be seen to be appreciated."

t A drunk was brought before Magistrate Crease yesterday morning and
lind .r, and oonts.
All trains were late coining in last
evening and in consequence the mail
was not sorted until a late hour.
Two cars of ore from the Whitewater mine were brought down from

two honrs late as the passengers and
baggage had to be transferred around
the break in the line.
At the record oiP.ee yesterday a
rather amusing incident occurred.
Two men, both foreigners not very
familiar with English, were in getting licenses, ono a mining license
and the other a marriage license. The
man who wanted a mining license
was served ��iist and the other listened
intently to the explanations that weie
made a., to lhe time for which the
license waH good and othei particulars. When number two's turn came
aud he had beon served, ho waited expectantly for a moment or two and
thou anxiously asked, ''How long is
this license good for?''
J. E. Annable yestorday disposed of
twenty acres of land to W. J. Hug-
gins who will enter noon the raising
of nigh-grade poultry for tho western

for the purpose. J. Shell) also purchased tell acres, which he will put in

"l''or years I have not been able to
drink ooffee, as It made me very nervous and gave me a headache, No one
loved cofTi'C more than 1 and it was a
severe trial to abandon its us��*. Nearly three years lino '. saw I'ostum
Cereal Coffee advertised and concluded
to try it.
I have been so well pleased with il
ami Its healthful effects that I have
used it ever since. I carry pncUagOB
with me when I visit other plaees.
When I began to drink I'ostum, my
muscles were tlahuy. as my habits are
sedentary, but for Hie past two years
my muscles have been hard and I
never felt stronger In iny lite than I
do now at sixty years of age, and I
attribute my strength of muscle to
constant use of I'ostum. 1 drink ii

The reason I'ostum builds up the
human body to a prune condition "f
health, IS that when coffee ic left olf
tho drug effects of the poison disap*
pear and the elements In Postum unilo
with albumen of the food to make
gray matter and refill the delicate
nerve centers all over the body and in
tl.n brain. 'Phis sets up a perfect

result is that the entire body feels tlio
