INQUEST COMMENCED! blative THREE CASH PRIZES )nly Preliminary Evidence Is Gone Into. Collection of Diamonds Valued at Three Hundred Thousand Dollars Stolen���Troops Had to Be Called Out to Restore Order After Fire (Spceial to the Optimist) Brussels, August 16.���Twenty million hollars is the estimated monetary loss, fcot including priceless art treasures, i the result of a fire which was caused a crossed wire on the telegraph build- ngof the International institute. It was marvel that scores were not killed, ir all the broad avenues and narrow jtreets that debouch at this point were )acked with people from the moment |he first alarm of fire was sent out. The fire department had no chance save the building or those in the nmediate vicinity. Fanned by a strong fcale the flames leaped over the paths the park from building to building, nd in a very short time twenty of the krge pavilions were reduced to heaps ' ashes. A Kirmese was being held at the time in the big arena, and the people were fortunately just leaving as the fire broke out. Notwithstanding this there was a panic among them and many were trampled upon in their haste to escape. But the troops had been called at the same time as the fire department and managed to restore order. The ashes were not cold this morning before the looters were at work like ghouls. A diamond collection, many of the gems being priceless for their antiquity as well as their rarity, was stolen during the confusion. This is valued at three hundred thousand dollars. Other treasurers are believed to have been stolen and the remainder, loaned by other institutes from all over the world for this exhibition, were destroyed by the fire. There is now a cordon of police reserves and soldiers around the ruins, which are still smouldering. So little escaped the flames that the authorities are now conferring as to the advisibility of closing the fair altogether, which will be a greivous disappointment to the thousands crowding the city for the purpose of attending it.

FOUNDING NEW COLLIERY TOWN NORTON GRIFFITHS WILL BE HERE NEXT WEEK Collieres to be Brought Over and Settled in New Town Called After Their Native Place. Will be in the Comox District. Norton Griffiths, British member of parliament, who comes to Prince Rupert with Premier McBride next week, is going to found a new town, to be called Wednesbury after his constituency in South Staffordshire, and will bring over from England one thousand families from the colleries there to populate it. The town will be built up in connection with the development work which the Canadian Collieries company is about to carry out. The company, which recently took over the holdings of the Hon. James Dunsmuir, is operating diamond drills in a number of places with a view to locating the best points for sinking new pits, which will lead to the output of the collieries being largely increased. With the growth of the operations of the island colliery plant a large number of additional expert coal miners will be needed, and to procure these the management has entered into negotiations with the Imperial Federation league, of which Mr. Graham Forester of Victoria is the British Columbia commissioner. The league wi 1 bring out a number of miners from the old country, who will supply the needs which an enlarged scope of mineral labor demands. The extension of the mineral area of the Canadian Collieries company will lead to the establishment of a new mining townsite which will be called Wednesbury, at the request of Mr. Norton Griffiths, the English member of parliament for the town of that name in the old country. Mr. Griffiths is vice-president of the Imperial Federation league and is now on his way to Vancouver island to make arrangements for bringing in miners who will be employed by the Canada Collieries company, which are controlled by Mr. William Mackenzie, president of the Canadian Northern railroad and a syndicate of British capitalists.

Tuesday, Aug. 16 THE NATIVE AND HIS MONEY As has been previously stated in this paper a great many Indians will visit the city this week, having in their possession a larger amount of money than they have possibly ever had from any one season's fishing before. The chief of police and the police officers should protect these people from the blind pigs and from those who will give the Indian intoxicants with sinister motives. The Indian needs protection from his own weakness and the law provides a severe penalty for the offender who gives or offers the native intoxicants. The native earns his money by hard labor and needs it all to buy supplies for the winter. Dominion Constable Berryman who knows the Indian well should be asked to assist in chasing up the crooks here who will be after the native's money. The local-police should be active and frequently visit the places where the natives congregate. Activity on the part of the police will show the keepers of dives and dispensers of bad stuff that drinking among the Indians will not be tolerated. It will be a preventative which will make arrests and punishment unnecessary. It is up to Chief McCarvell to see that the native is kept sober and that his money goes into legitimate channels. He and his staff can do it and The Optimist hopes it will be able to congratulate him on the result of his efforts. ROYAL FAMILY RELENTS Duke of Abruzzi and Miss Elkins May Soon be Married Paris, August 12..A special from Rome to the Petite Republique says that the hostility of the royal family to the marriage of the Duke of the Abruzzi and Miss Katherine Elkins has been withdrawn, and the official announcement of their engagement will be made shortly. Miss Elkins and her mother have been in Europe for several months. Lately they have been staying at Toblach, Austria, and recent reports have had it that the Duke of the Abruzzi, who is now director-general of the srsenal at Venice, made motor trips from his headquarters to the Austrian retreat of Miss Elkins. Insuring King George London, August 12.���The Canadian Associated Press learns that recently there has been a very large increase in the number of life policies on King George, at Lloyds. The policies are taken for two years. QUANTITIES OF BOOZE Ten Barrels Seen Delivered to One Place this Week A prominent citizen, and one who has been here from the earliest days, told the Optimist this morning that a day or so ago he saw ten barrels of booze delivered to one place in the business section of the city. He would not say that it was a blind pig as he understood that they all closed up long ago, in fact twenty-four hours after they were commanded to do so. What the liquid refreshments were for he would not like to say. Nevertheless the fact remains that there are ten barrels in one place. gii^g^^g u^&mk^mm^^sgm Progress and Opportunities EDITION OF THE Prince Rupert Optimist The large special illustrated edition will shortly be issued from this office.

Mrs. Dr. Gillis, of Vancouver, lost her hand bag containing a small sum of money and about $200 worth of jewellery, mostly heirlooms. No one was allowed off the boat until the police arrived and as a result the passengers were held up for about forty minutes. In due time Chief Wynn, Chief McCarvell and a couple of men arrived and they no sooner began a search than the passengers started for shore. The lost articles were not found and it is not known whether they were lost on the boat, in Stewart or whether they were stolen. The latter is doubted by the majority. The message for the police caused some little excitement and stories of all kinds of losses were circulated. One included a $3000 package purported to have been sent to Stewart from the Prince Rupert branch. There was nothing in this however. Montreal's Half Million The population of Montreal proper, according to the new issue of Lovell's Directory, is 456,000, and the number of citizens in the city and outskirts is estimated at 507,000. MARINE ThePrince George came in at five o'clock Sunday afternoon, six and a half behind schedule time. This was said to have been due to her having stopped to coal. |$ {). The Princess Royal will leave Vancouver today , and will sail for Skagway from here on Thursday. The Prince Albert had many passengers for Masset Sunday. HOTEL ARRIVALS. Premier Hotel W. L.

E. Coulter, secretary of the Single Tax Association, said the accepted theory of taxation is like the modern theory of disease, that when God made the earth and found it good he rested on the first Sunday; that on Monday he went raving crazy and made a bug; to destroy all that he had made good; that this was so with taxes. "We are told," he said, "that those who need no government must pay out of their industry for the government of the criminal and bad. That the public value in lands must not be touched because some scoundrel three hundred years ago, who didn't own it, gave a deed to another scoundrel who thought he did. It is like the theory of bugs, only useful to transfer the earning of the good, the industrious and the useful, to the pockets of the idle, the crooked and the useless. "It is as immoral for the state to give away the value it creates in lands | under the guise of grants and deeds and then levy upon the energy of the citizen in things that it did not produce, under the thin and spurious dis- 1 guise of conserving the public safety or : the public health, as it was for Jack I Shepherd to appropriate the money of I his neighbor to provide for his own , ease, comfort and luxury, and the state ; which does so can only breed poverty, ! crime and vice, since like causes pro- . duce like results. "The fiction that men must be taxed ; on what they produce to reimburse the I state for protection and civil liberty is 1 fundamental in the dead rot of civilization, for when the state starts to be a thief it is of all the thieves the most ruthless and relentless, most void of justice, most insatiable in its demands, most heartless of consequences and most demoralizing in moral results. The truth is that in taxation the state can only justly take from that which it creates and grants as privileges in land, or it must be classed as other thieves and criminals. "If this was not true then would the angels in heaven have their harps levied upon by the Almighty to pay the necessary police and health regulations in hades. And so it is among men. A just and equitable system of society will never take the product of the individual industry of the saints to maintain and provide for the indolence and slothfulness of the sinners. "There are 62,000 farmers less in Ontario than there were eight years ago. They have either come to British Columbia, Alberta or into the cities to escape these penalizing taxes by becoming mere wage earners. Already this year more than 2,000 families have come west from Ontario to settle where their personal enterprize�� will not be subject to taxation." LIKE A DOVE COTE Many Ladies on Passenger List of Steamer Prince George Among those who took their passage on the Prince George for the south are the following:- Mrs and Miss Brown, Mrs. Metcalf, C. M. Brown, H. B. Close, Dr. Stonham, Mrs. Owen, Miss Ida Owen, Mrs. and Miss Bennett, B. Metcalfe, Mrs. P. W. Anderson, Mrs. J. H.

The police had occasion to believe that Florence was sailing a little over the line and that it was quite contrary to local regulations. It appears that Miss Russell was under the influence of liquor and the cop on duty in the vicinity of Comox undertook to escort her to the police headquarters. Florence is a bad actor when she scents danger ahead and she has a mind of her own as well as a very strong and glib tongue in her head. She put up a terrific struggle and fought every inch of the way from her house to the police cells. She screamed and said bad words and dragged her feet and lay down on the sidewalk and a few other stunts of like nature. The policeman had his arms full and was quite fatigued when he finally landed his prisoner. This morning Florence was charged with two offences. First she was drunk and disorderly and second, she kept a bawdy house. The crown was not prepared to go on with the case and asked for an adjournment until the twenty- third. The request was granted.

The police had occasion to believe that Florence was sailing a little over the line and that it was quite contrary to local regulations. It appears that Miss Russell was under the influence of liquor and the cop on duty in the vicinity of Comox undertook escort her to the police headquarters. .-rence is a bad actor when she scents danger ahead and she has a mind of her own as well as a very strong and glib tongue in her head. She put up a terrific struggle and fought every inch of the way from her house to the police cells. She screamed and said bad words and dragged her feet and lay down on the sidewalk and a few other stunts of like nature. The policeman had his arms full and was quite fatigued when he finally landed his prisoner. This morning Florence was charged with two offences. First she was drunk and disorderly and second, she kept a bawdy house. The crown was not prepared to go on with the case and asked for an adjournment until the twenty- third. The request was granted. TRACKS LAID Through the First Four Hundred Foot Tunnel The G. T. P. completed the laying of tracks through the first tunnel east of Prince Rupert Sunday. This tunnel is 400 feet long and the steel is now laid from the town to Mile 55. The tunnel is between Miles 52 and 53. There will be a delay of a day or two now in laying the rails on account of a trestle bridge over a creek not being quite ready. The road crosses a great many creeks and a lot of bridges are necessary. These bridges are only temporary, but they will be made permanent as soon as the big shipment of cement is received from Japan, and it is expected to arrive almost any day now. Foley, Welch and Stewart will construct all the smaller bridges along the Skeena. Do it now. Tomorrow someone else may have done it and collected the pay. There is only one thing you can do without money and that is run into debt. REAL ESTATE OFFERINGS SECTION 1. Block 28, lots 3 and 4, $3,200; cash $2,200. Block 29, lot 11, $1500; cash $925.

The Prince Rupert Savings and Trust company is a new concern that contemplates doing business in this city and in the not distant future. They had negotiated for a lease of the corner in the Helgerson Block, but the Royal Bank beat them to it. It is understood that they will not open here for a short time. Associated with the Prince Rupert branch is a board of directors who have consented to act in an advisorary capacity on any loans that might be requested here. Among the directors are Wm. Manson, M. P. P, Aid. V. W. Smith and C. D. Newton. When seen by the Optimist Mr. Manson said that he had been requested to' act on the board in an advisorary capacity on contemplated loans. He had no stock in the company and knew nothing about it. Aid. V. W. Smith spoke in the same way. He has no stock in the company and is only connected with it so far as the loans are concerned. O. D. Newton stated that he had a little stock in the company and that he was looking after their business until such time as an office was opened up. The story in the Vancouver Province is as follows :- "The old Dominion Assay Office-at 166 Hastings street has been taken over by the Prince Rupert Savings & Trust Company, the latest addition to the financial institutions of Vancouver. This company has been formed to deal in sound investments of every description, to undertake trusts and to advise intending investors regarding opportunities for investment in British Columbia, and in particular the northern portion of it. They will also conduct a savings bank department both in Vancouver and Prince Rupert. The head office of the company is in Vancouver with branches at Prince Rupert and Stewart. The shareholders and the directors comprise many well-known Vancouver men of financial experience and standing. The Prince Rupert office is in the hands of a capable manager, assisted by an advisory board consisting of seven of the leading citizens of Prince Rupert. This board will be of great assistance to the directors .in regard to the conduct of business in the North. Connections have been formed in Eastern Canada, the United States and England with the object of interesting foreign capital in the company's investments. The company's business is under the general direction of Mr. W. A. S. Colter, managing director, who has been in Vancouver for some years and is well known in this city and throughout western Canada." PASSING OF LE ROI Famous Mine at Rossland Shut Down Indefinitely There is something unspeakably tragical in the failure of a full-grown enterprise. Some years before the Rossland boom began, two French-Canadians, Morris and Bourgeois, staked the Le Roi claims. In 1992, Col. I. N. Paton, of Spokane, Washington, took over the mine. In 1893 extensive development was commenced. One year later the meteoric Augustus Heinze came on the scene. He it was who built nine miles of railway from the mine to Trail; also he erected a smelter wherewithal to treat the ore. Just after the height of the boom, ex-Governor C. H. Mcintosh, known to all adult Canadians, came on the scene as a representative of one of Whittaker Wright's syndicates. After purchasing Le Roi for a sum exceeding $4,000,000, the syndicate undertook to develop and prospect the property on a scale that was, perhaps, hardly warranted. A smelter was erected at Northport. Diamond drilling was begun and sinking and driving pushed vigorously. At least $20,000,000 in gold has been taken out of Le Roi. For some reason��� there are those who assert that the mine has suffered from a surfeit of London management���Le Roi has never yielded continuous profits. In any case, its tenuous existence has been brought to a close. And simultaneously expire the hopes and expectations of many hundred unfortunate shareholders. ��� Canadian Mining Journal. VICTORIA RECEPTION Some people blow pretty hard, but they do not blow out their own gas. Get Preserving Jars -AT- SIMON'S FAIR 3rd Ave. Between 6th and 7th WE SELL FOR LESS Premier McBride to Invite Prominent Liberals to Meet Sir Wilfrid Tomorrow night the city of Victoria will entertain Sir Wilfrid Laurier with a reception offered by the provincial government on behalf of the people of British Columbia, and this picturesque and to-be historic function is to be made one of the most enjoyable and complete events in Canadian history. The parliament buildings on this occasion will be a blaze of electrical illimination unprecedented in their.extent and effectiveness; the best band available will discourse music on the ample lawns; interiorally the public offices will be a wonderful study in floral decorative art, orchestral music will be provided, a buffet supper will be served, and nothing that good taste or experience can suggest will be left undone to convince Sir Wilfrid of British Columbia's and its Conservative Government's recognition of him as a great Canadian. At this reception, it is understood, the intention of Premier McBride is to invite foremost provincial Liberals to occupy the places of special honor. Many Billions In Pensions The cost of the United States wars in pensions alone has been more than 94,000,000,000. With the close of the fiscal year 1910, on June 30, figures were available showing that the four-billion- dollar mark has been passed during the past twelve months. The total disbursements for pensions from the beginning of the government to June 30, 1909, is given by the pension office as $3,913,082,513,73. Voice Records for Prostarity It is not generally known that among the additions constantly being made to the treasures of the British Museum is a series of gramophone records. These records are kept in a room specially adapted for the purpose, and comprise the original metal matrix from which the records in use by the public are made. The master matrix i s usually made of steel, and the copies taken from it are subject to a pressure of some twenty to thirty tons while the mpression is being made. The records are at present being restricted to certain classes, but others will be added later. How interesting it will be to people centuries hence to hear how the language was pronounced at the beginning of the twentieth century. How greedily scholars would listen if they could hear how Latin was spoken by Cicero.���Montreal Witness.
