Regina vs. W. E. Sutherland for nt- toring a lorged dopnment. The caso has already been described In The Miner as nomiug np iu tbe Polioe Court for preliminary trial. The down was represented bv H. A. Mao- dounld, of Rosslaud, nnd the prisoner by Messrs. W. A. Macdonald, Q. 0., aud P. E. Wilson. Tho jnry wbo tried the oase was as follows: 14. W. Day, foreman; S. J. Cnmpbell, A. Carrie, J. A. Macdonald, J. T. Fife, R. S. Joy, H. D. Hnme, W. Wnldie, T. E. Madson, H. G. Qoodeve and CURTIS ON HOUSTON. Thinks the Mayor Should He Forced to Shew His Hand. Hon. Smith Cnrtis did a great deal of hustliug in Nalson yesterday. He nuns m1 to^tell a Miuer man to what end be was working, but it is understood tbat he was looking about in an effoit to find a good Martin candidate io this Hiding in case Mr. Houston oannot be brought around to thu Martiu side of tbe fonoe. "If yon will tell me what Houston is going to do and where be stands at tbe present time, "said Mr. Curtis, "I will tell yon wbat we are going to do bere. Cotton won't be in the next bouse and Houston will therefore have no leader if he ooutinuos as at preseut. It he is eleoted be won't be able to oarry ont his ideas beoanse be will be by himself and without any party sup- port of any kind." "Don't you worry about Houston," ���aid a Houston man within hearing. "And don't you worry about a Mm tin oandidate. Houston will lino up all right if he goos into the.House." "But no one knows whether he will or not," replied Mr. Curtis. "He batn't said so.' "Well there's plenty of timo for tbat,-'said the Houston man. "No sir, Mr. Honston owes it to his oonstituonts to say just where bo will stand if be is elootod. Au election is ln tho nature of a plebisoite. A party is put in power because tbo people are favorable to the laws whicb that party pledges itself to enaot and tbe work it pledges itself to do. Mr. Honston with a platform of bis own cannot hope to do anything stundiug in tbe Honse by himself. He must stand with a party if bej hopes to be ol value to his constituents. " Mr. Curtis feels oonlldent of his election in Rossland and equally confident that the Martin Government will be roturnod. SUTHERLAND ACQUITTED. His Counsel Successfully Established an Alibi for Him. Tbe Court of Agnizes was oooupied all day yeaterday in trying tbe case of Fred Starkey, John Fmser. The evidenoe put in by the Crown was abont the same as that offerod in tbe Police Court at the preliminary hearing. They endeavored to prove tbat Sutherland had on the night of tbe 84th of February last, in oompany with M. K. McAllister, entered the house of a woman named Willie Morgan and in payment for drinks given her a raised one dollar bill, whioh purported to be a lo bill. Iu return be reoeived nine dollars cbnngo and soon after left tbe house with McAllister and after leaving remurked that he bad passed the wrong bill. Tbe Morgan woman was pnt on tbe stand and testified thnt McAllister hnd come to ber honse with a man whom be told her was Sutherland and that she had gotten a raised bill from him and given bim 90 in change. Tho proseontion laid great stress upon the olotbes worn by the man who gave the bill, as described by the womnn, and also upon be peculiar watch chain tbat she described as having beeu woru by hira and whicli tallied with ono owned by the prisoner. A man named Devoir testified to having given Sutherland thu bill'in qnestion nud tbat he had never seen it again until it came into oourt. Several other witnosses followed nnd McAllister was then pnt upon tbe stand. He testified to knowing tbat the bill was in the possession of tbe prisoner and that ou tho '.' ttb of February between tl and 10-DO p. m. they bad gone together to the Morgan woman's house, aud that Sutherland bud passed tbe bill liiiM'tviii,, ..- in change. He was the most damaging witness and seemed anxious to incriminate tbe accused. After reoess tbe defense pnt Mrs. Hudson,of Latimer Street,on tbe stand who testified tbat Sutherland bad beeu nt hor home on tbe evening of the v lili of February from oigbt o'clock until a quarter of twerNe. Sbe fixed the date by pioducing a reoeipt for some money which she paid Suth. erlnnd ou that evening and whiob was put in as evidence. The Crown tried to prove, the invalidity of the reoeipt as having most piobably been written after Sutherland was arrested. Viotoria Hodsou corroborated her mother's testimony as to the presence of Sutherland at their borne on tbe evening iu question nnd also as to seeing tho reoeipt mado out [and signed at tbat time. JAfter Allan MoLaughliu bad testified to being at Mrs. Hodson's in company with Sutherland on the 24th from 8 o'clock until 11 and Messrs. F. R. 0. Beer, Charles Parker and W. H. Rutherford had testified as to the good character of the accused, the prisoner was pnt on the stand. He denied in toto the evidence of the Morgan woman nnd McAllister, as to having beon at tho Morgin woman's house as stated. Did not deny having owned the bill hot said it had not been in his possession for a long time and that he had nover carried it around with him. Said tbat MoAllister and be quarrelled about the 1st of April and shortly afterward the arrest followed. MoAllister bad lived with bim end had accesB to the bill. He also testified to having Bpent the evening iu question nt Mrs. Hodson's. W. A. Maodonald, Q. C, made an eloquent speeoh for the defense in which ho dilated to the jnry upon the nndoubted alibi whiob bod been established. He spoke of the good reoord of tbe prisoner aud the faot tbat he bad uevei couoeolod the possession of the bill in question and then referred with scathing contempt to the witness MoAllister as having beon actuated by n spirit of malice in his testimony and also compared the two men as to character with tbe result of placing McAllister In a most unonvinblo light. He asked fnr an ncquittal on these grounds from the jury. The Crown followed with an argument to the "licet that the alibi was not a valid one and also tbat tbe connection between the prisoner and the man who pnssed tbo bill had boen woll established. Mr. Justice Drnke in charging the jury took ocoasion to severely score MoAllister nnd referred to him in most deuunciatory terms. The jnry after a fow moments consul tation returned a verdict of not guilty. DOMINION Latest Political News From the Capital of the Province. Colonel Otter Denies He Has Failed to Report Casualties.

General Hutton, before ho was join ed by a part of General Fiennh 'a force had a sharp right. This waa on Monday, when he reached tbe river and saw the Boer convovs on the other side and pressed forwnrd intending to cross and capture tbem. The Boers opened fire with eight gnns, seemingly they were in thousands and sought to envelope the lint ish. Geueral Hutton fell back tbe Boers folbwing.until other oavalry reinforcements arrived. During tbe nigbt the Boers letreated, nn.&/other contesting thu orossing. Lord Roberts, according to a correspondent left Smal Deel Tuesday to consult one of the Hamiltons, lfi miles distant.

Tbe Britiah losses at Brandfort are now reported to have been muoh heavier than was drat repotted. After Ibe battle British patrols visited tbe farmhouses in tbe surrounding diatriute and all the men were taken prisoners, while tbe borses and gone were remove. Lord Koberts is thus adopting a sterner.polioy witb a view of preventing guerilla righting in tbe rear of tbe British. Horses are now commandeered and f-irmbonsos where guns are found are destroyed, while the men are urrested. London, May 0.��� Although the British expect considerable opposition nt tbe difficult drift of the Zand Kir- the latest advices from Smal Deel indioato that tbe Federals are not yet ready to make a determined attempt to stop Lord Roberts' advanoe.

Tbe san.e considerations would probalby affeot tbe stand at Kroonstadt, benoe tbe general belief that little real opposition will lie encountered soutb of tbe Vaal. The repaiia to the brigdes over tbe Vet River and the Vaal are expected to retard the general march from Smiil Deel and Fourteen Streams for three or four days when General Bnller will also be litpty. The general idea ia that Lord Roberts will direct Ids right on Har- rismith'iu order to got in touohwwith the Natal army ooming through Van Keenau's Pass. A dispatoh from Masern, dated May S, says: "The Boers bave deserted both Ladybrand aud Fickaburg in a panicky condition owing to reports that tha British hud occupied Seneka, tbua threatening their retreat to tbe Transvaal. " Smal Deel, May 9.���Yosterdoy General Hutton attempted to seize a Boei convoy that v��n leaving the Zand River. He advanced towaids the river witb infantry. A loug line of wagons was plainly visible. Ou becoming aware of General Hutton's object tbe Boers stopped and opened fire. They seemed in great force and worked a great deal of havoc. Presently mounted Boers were seen orossing tbe dry lands of the river bed. They ciroled to tbe right and begun io onfiladu tbe West Australians while many of the British were hit by shells. The position became serious. Tbe Boers sent up reinforcements,placing tbe Australians in danger of being cut off. Thereupon Oeneral Hutton oidered a retirement to Wolgelegen, whero be bad left his own convoy. A portion of tbe forces advanced and engaged the Boers to oover the retirement whicb was soooossfully made. Tbo Boeis continued to shell the retiring troops, but sbowod no doBiro to prcHs.tho attack further,meanwhile the Boer trains steamed away north,blowing up the culverts as.they went.

Quite a number iu Nelson are beginning to ask themselves if there is not jnat a little too much Houston in the publio porridge. The man is forever thrustiug himself forward ; not to help, bnt to rule. He insists on imposing himself on the publio whenever an openiug affords him ihe oocasion, declaring iu effeot that ho is the ouly man capable of serving tbem. He oame to the front at the first eleotion for Mayoi and crowded out a better man, mainly beoause be was the favorite type of representative with the old timers. At the expiration of bis first term he insisted upon standing again, bnt bn tbat ouoasiou was turned down. He bobbed up again tbe third timo,tolling the people tbat he was tbe only porsan iu the Oity wbo knew bow to handle its affairs. He wanted the nomination in Mr. Hume's place in the 1898 eleotion, olaiming that be knew more of Provincial affairs than all the rest of his party. And now that thore is another goueral electiou be hastens to announce himself a oandidate, as if in mortal terror tbat some other person would be nominated ahead of him. He announoes bis candidature ond issues his address, and baving thus slaked liis olaim he agrees to call a convention, that it may go through the form of continuing the nomination wbioh he has bimself made. It is Houston bere, Houston there; Houston this,and Houston that. Honaton everywhere and everything. The impression abroad is that there is no one in Nelson who knows anything bnt Houston, no one wbo can do an/thing but Houston. He takes the whole mafbagement and control of jlvlo affairs iuto bis own bauds, tieating the Aldermen as if they were ohildreu, too immature for responsibility aud too incapable to be of use. We bave Houston with onr electrio light, Houston with eur water; Honstou orders the scavenging aud direots the watering cart. Houston cuts out our public work and hires tbe men. Honston deoides tbe grades and the exoavatious. A hole in a rook cannot be drilled or loaded without Houston. Houston paves our streets nnd digs our sewers. Nothing can be done, not n step taken, without permission of this wonderful Houston. It fairly ruins Houston. Tbe smell of him pervades the whole town; bis grasp is on everything. Ie it any wonder people are getting siok of him? Tbe Greenwood Times bas been mali ing a bouquet of some ohoice selections from Mr. Martin's speech in that town: "I never asked Laurier for his support in this oampaigu. I don't waut his support. It would do me mora barm than good." "I was uot mnde Minister of the Interior in the Laurie! Cabinet beoause the Canadian Pacifio Railway Oompany nisi.'H'il that I should be kept out. " "I criticised the mistakes of the Laurier Government, and I must say they weie many. " "Sir Wilfrid Laurier is being badly advised by tbe Liberal members from this Provinoe." "The Liberal members from thiB Province who denounce me are creatures of tho Canadian Pacific Railway Company." As to the secoud, leading Liberals say he was kept out because, if taken iu, the Government would bave placed itself over n powder mine.

Under the ninnngoiuent of Oscar Stevens the Wavorley Hotel promises to become ft most popular place, not only for Nolson peoplo but us well for transients. The office of the houso has beeu furnished and now presents a most metropolitan air. In the dining room tbe new manager has worked a wondrons change, not only in the appearance of tho room itself but in the menu. There,; are no signs of tho decline into whioh the hotel hud fallen under the old management, and undei the mauagemeut of the energetic Oscar Stevens there can be nothing but advancement iu the future. The following assessments, locations and transfers were reoordefl yesterday at the Mining Recorder's ollice. Locutions: Keystone Fraction, C. C Ladd; Crown Heud, Johu Miles; Riverside, W. P.

At a meeting of the'Operntio Society held last evening Melville Parry ro- ported that there had been raised at the performance of Pinnfnre for the benefit of Saudon $701), which with $52.25 expense, left $1150.75, which was forwarded to Mayor Pitts, of Sandou yesterday. It was at first supposed that at least (H00 would have been iaised.but moie tioketa were returned unsold than was expected. As it was a larger amount was raised thnn was ever before raised in Nelson iu a similar way and for a Bimilar purpose. A general meeting of the Operatic Society will be held in the Board of Trade rooms next Tuesday afternoon at 5 o'clook. Mr. Frank Wood who wns interested in the Last Chnnco mine was one of those who wont through tho Saudon fire. He and Mrs. Wood wore at the Reoo Hotel and were awakened in time to escape with a few, a very few, olothea on. In taut Mr. Wood did not have time to pot on baicly anything, he went down stairs with his trousers, containing all his money, and a watch whioh he particularly prized. After he got down stairs he handed the trousers and watch to some one to hold while he went up to make an attempt to save something else. When he oame down again the man who hnd volunteered to hold the trousers and watoh had disappeared." It ssoms that there was a great deal of looting at the (ire and that many goods were saved whicli have never since heen seen. It also Beams that many of the supplies sent over to Saudon were appropriated by men who wore really not losers by tho fire, hut simply loafers who had heen knocking around tbo town. They secured many cases of goods whioh they have cached away and thus scoured themselves a stook of supplies thnt will last for some time. Heal Fire Head Office, Montreal. Hon. Smith Cnrtis speut a large portions of his time iu Nelson yesterday iu the company of James Wilks,the labor lender. They dined together and held several conferences, all of whiob set the politicians about town to guessing. What Mr Curtis was trying to do with Mr. Wilks, or what Mr. Wilks was tiying to do with Mr.^Ourtis is an open question but there is evidently something on. It is will known thnt Wilks is friendly to Martin, and It is believed would prefer to lend his aid to a Martin candidate than to Houston. If he is uot already pledged to Honston it is quite likely thnt if a Martin candidate enters the field he will secure Wilks' support. In the Police Court yesterday morning were the two Italians nnmed Do- minaca and Toroco, who were oharged with creating a disturbance on Tuesday in front of the Club Hotel. The meu had had a fist tight at tbat place aud later on had hnd another altercation on Hall Straet when Toroco pulled out n revolver and threatened to use it on Dominant. The usual diflionltv in secuiing witnesses to such affairs among Italians was experienced, as all the men who had been spectators had cleared out of town ou Wednesday. The ibaige was mado by tbe police and Toroco was also charged with carrying n concealed weapon. After honring the evidence Magistrate Crease fined Toroco 850 or six months in jail and Dominaco825 or three months. Toroco also got nn additional sentence of $25 or three mouths in jail for carrying the revolver. Be sure you are right,then go ahead.
