NO. li MODERN EQUIPMENT AT COLD STORAGE Everything About the Place is Being Handled in the Most Up to Date Manner-Well Appointed Work Shop on the Ground for Carrying out all the Work. New Welding Process in Use There. Anyone who In any manner doubts the future of this city has but to visit the plant of the Canada Fish & Cold Storage plant at Seal co\e, and see for himself the expenditure of money that is there represented and he will be convinced that the city of Prince Rupert is to be one of the commercial centres of the world. In the plant that is there provided for the handling of a part, of the fishing industry, hundreds of thousands of dollars have already been expended, and the undertaking is yet uncompleted. Expenditures are still going on, making the plant probably the largest of its kind in the world. It Is pointed out by those behind the enterprise that the expenditure is a wise one, and that the field of operations in this part of the world well warrants the amount that Is being put Into the proposition. George H. Collins, the manager of the enterprise, who has associated with him in the enterprise some of the best business men in the country, has come back from the old land on this his latest visit more j than ever Impressed with the ini- mense openings that there are for all I kinds of fish products in the old country. He was besieged on his visit with... inquiries fvam rhn a ! the business who believed that the works were ready for starting up, and who were anxious to place orders for immense quantities of fish with him. The market is an tin1 limited one, and under the conditions that prevail in these waters there is going to be the opportunities for taking of the harvest of the seas In an economical way and with good returns. Nothing but the latest in the way of equipment has been put in the building that Mr. Colilns has now erected and is carrying to completion as quickly as the supplies arrive. Tlie building and its style of construction has before been described in these columns. The immense floor space that is available for fish and other kinds of perishable commodities Is fast being put In shape to receive the supply for which it is intended. It will be some little time yet before the equip ment is all In place, but when it is there will be located in the city something in the shape of a fish plant that will be the envy of all other places on the Pacific coast. In carrying on tho Installation of the plant at the works there has been equipped quite an extensive amount of machinery not directly connected with the general outfit, but used in getting that ready for the putting of it In place. One large room is used as a workshop and the equipment of it is of the most mod ern character. The largest lathe in the city is to be found there and there is all kinds of general machinery for the preparation of the piping that plays such an important part in the outfitting. The iron pipe which forms a net work throughout the building and through which the ammonia will be carried in the chilling process, comes to the place without being threaded for the connections. All the connections are made on the ground. This is done because the work must bi >'ery particularly carried out so that ti'ere will be no leakages. The pipes are threaded and in most of cases the onnections are made perfectly tight 1 y being dipped into solder and put together with hot solder run Into the joints. The main coils that are used arc put together without any joints showing. They are all welded throughout under a patent process that is being us< .1 in this province for the first time. This is known as the Kerit process. A preparation which is a jcret to all but those who manufacture it is used. «. mold specially made is place about " Joint which consists in bringing the ends of the iron pipe closely together, j'he pr paration is lighted Ip thi' reto'-t anil gfiPOTate? ar intense heat. It is pou" 1 at white heat into the,mold and as a result of_ the h<?at a perfect fuse Is made. Everything about the place Is being planned to save labor in tin handling of the equipment, and the material used. The gigantic boilers are now in place and in commission. They are to be fed automatically. From the bunkers on the wharf the coal will be carried into the building by buskets ou a chain, dumped into a specially prepared hopper in frrm of Ihe fireplaces. The coal is carried into place by a slowly n'ovlng carrier that forms the bottom of the firebox. The speed at which this will move and the amount of fuel that it will carry can be re£ ula. ^d to suit the circumstances. By tht> use of this a cheap class of fuel may be used ai the material will be brought directly to the poinl requited, and the combustion will be perfect. In the arrangement of the build- lug there has been ample provision made by the company to allow private parties making use of the building for the purposes of cold storage In this way local merchants and butchers will be provided with the moans of taking care of their stocks in the plant. All of one side is to be devoted to this trade if it is required. There are rooms of different sizes partitioned off ofr this. When not in use by outsiders it can all be used by the company. FINANCIAL POLICY OF THE COUNCIL Conference with Officials of the Bank of Montreal Resulted in Decision Being Reached to Take Advantage of Recent Legislation Allowing Treasury Certificates Being Issued. The question of the city finances was the subject of a conference between representatives of the Bank of Montreal and the members of the city council last evening. The result of tlie negotiations will he brought before the council on Monday night in the form of a bylaw, it being the intention of putting the measure through without loss of time in ordei to carry out the proposition that was n.ade to the council by the bank. The conference was a private one, not open to the public, and resulted in a line of action being agreed upon bv the council, with one dissenting voice, that of Aid. Montgomery. The arrangement is to take advantage of the legislation passed at the last session of the legislature, which allows, with the consent of the government, the isusing of treasury certificates for a period not exceeding three years. It is proposed to have these issued and put on the market in order to meet the obligations with the bank until such time as the debentures may be sold. It was represented to the council that there was an opportunity to sell these certificates on the market and the recommendation was made by the bank that it be done. Aid. Montgomery took the ground that if the treasury certificates were to be sold and the bank reimbursed that then the bank should give assurances of still further advances for the completion of the hydro-electric scheme at least.

The deputy minister is one of the best known fruit men in tlie province and at the same time a general agriculturist. Mr. Manson realized that this district has a splendid future as far as agriculture is concerned, and accordingly has urged that the members of the department shall come and assist in the development of the country In this regard. The visit at the present time is for the purpose of looking into conditions and soo the islands. The object of Mr. Gil- lingliam's visit is to go over the ground with Mr. Sandilands at this time, the opening of the season, and acquaint him with the situation.

CLAIMS CONSOLIDATED \ Million Dollar Consolidation Involving Claims in Whitehorse Camp Has Been Carried Through Sunday, April 14, 1.912. A DRY DOCK The importance of having a dry dock such as the G.T.P. Is about to equip at this port is made evident by the tremendous extra expense that was involved in getting the Cheloh- sin down to Victoria for repairs from a point within very easy reach of this city. With the increased importance of this port as a shipping point the frequency of accidents like this must, of necessity increase unless an entirely new race of mariners arise before that time. Ship repairing is costly work and a very large proportion of the expense in connection with it goes out in wages. The result to a city is the expenditure of an increased amount of capital in the city. The citizens will we'eome the early completion of the dock which is to play such an important part in the industrial activity of this place. THE CLOSED COURT While the course that the police magistrate took yesterday morning of excluding the public from liis court is not one that we believe should be generally followed, yet there is no question that in doing as he did the magistrate acted wisely in this particular instance. We do not. pretend to know just why the course was taken that he did pursue, but we presume that he readied the conclusion to hold a closed court as a result of the unseemly conduct of the mayor the day before. The mayor was again present yesterday. It is not, as we have before pointed out, in the interest of justice that a man who knows no better than the mayor what is becoming in a court of law should be at liberty to take a course that may have the effect of bringing the court into contempt. Magistrate Carss is not inclined to be punctilious in connection with his court. He probably adopted the least objectionable way of dealing with one who showed a boorish disposition the day previous. TENDERS WANTED Sealed tenders will be received by the undersigned up to 5 o'clock p m., April 22, for the purchase of debentures to cover the cost of the construction of a 16-foot plank roadway between McBride and Dunsmuir Streets on Fifth Avenue.

Thomson, Who Acted as Consulting Engineer Here, Goes Into Provincial Government Service In order to develop Strathcona Park, the provincial government re- S"rve around Butte Lake, Vancouver Island, comprising some 240 square mile, R. II. Thompson, C. B., former city engineer of Seattle, and latterly engineer to the Port Commission of Seattle, has resigned Although the contract has not been signed, Mr. I Thompson admits he has received an I ofrer of $.5,00(1 a year for tlie next' five years from the government, and that he will visit Victoria Immediately for the purpose of completing! final negotiations. Mr. Thomson, since the announcement of his retirement from the ser-: vice of the porl commission, has received numerous offers for his ser-j vices from in the various parts of i tlie country, one from New York City to take entire charge of the pavemonl work In the borough of Manhattan, bul of all those received by hlra the development of Strathcona Park, n friend of Mr. Thomson says, appealed to the most strongly, on account of the fact that it would keep him in the open air, as well as being another step in the development of the northwest. Mr. Thomson has been long interested in the subject of making the northwest a world's tourist centre and he seems to see fa the offer he has virtually decided to accept the ; ossibtllty of connecting Y'ellowstonc, G'acler and Mount Rainier parks in Hie United States with Strathcona and other parks in Canada, constituting a circuit more interesting than anything through the entire region of the Alps. The development of this park, which the provincial government is Robert Lowe of Whitehorse has just concluded negotiations for the consolidation of tlie principal copper- gold groups, embracing fourteen claims in Whitehorse Camp, Yukon District. This involves the payment or $1,000,000 at periodical intervals during the next two years. Some of the first payments will mature within twelve months. On Wednesday next forty-five miners leave Vancouver for Whitehorse to begin the necessary development work. This will be carried out on a very large scale, and, it is anticipated, within a few weeks regular shipments to the Tacoma smelter will be started. A reduced rate of $2 per ton over the Whitehorse & Yukon Railway, between Whitehorse and tidewater at Skagway, has been promised. The haulage by water has also been secured at a cheap rate. W. D. Greenough will be the general manager, and John Mocine of Seattle will be associated with him as superintendent. The whole of the properties will be thoroughly investigated, special machinery for this purpose having been secured. Whitehorse was discovered in the early days of the Klondike rush, and a lot of money has been spent on its developments. The improved length of the copper belt is eight miles, a large part of which has been tapped. The copper ores, it is said, average from 4 to 7 per cent, with good subsidiary values in gold and silver. Naturally, Mr. Lowe, who has been in Vancouver for some time, received many congratulations on the successful termination of his negotiations, which have been under way for a long time. Mr. Lowe has announced that owing to business arrangements he will not be a candidate for the Yukon Council at the coining election. He sat in the late House as speaker, representing Whitehorse The various owners are as follows: Pueblo, Byron White of Spokane; Grafer, Messrs, Robert Lowe, Whitney & Pedler, George Armstrong and A.

PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL * All Red Wireless! x $ Details of the proposed arrangements between the imperial government and the Canadian Marconi Company for an "all red" wireless system to encircle the British Empire, a scheme which eventually will embrace the whole world, have been received by A. B. Reoch, secretary- treasurer of the Canadian Marconi I Company, Limited, in Montreal. The plan embraces high power stations at various strategic points within the Empire by which messages can be taken and forwarded, so that the British Empire will eventually become independent of cables. The importance of this plan is very great, as it would mean that in case of war with any power the British authorities would be able to go ahead with their plans whether the cables kere cut or not, and could keep in communication with the fleet anywhere between London and Hongkong. The communication received by Mr. Reoch states that the imperial postmaster general, acting on behalf of His Majesty's government and the government of the dominions and colonies, has accepted the conditions proposed by the Marconi Wireless Telegraph ompany, for the construction of all the long distance wireless stations required for the imperial wireless scheme. This is along the lines agreed to at the conference of June of last year, when representatives of the various colonies and of the imperial government agreed that the project was practicable. It was then decided that the plan should be undertaken, and it is now announced that the various governments concerned have agreed to proceed at once with the construction of high power wireless stations at London. Egypt, Aden, Bangalore (India), Pretoria (South Africa), and Singapore. This chain of stations, it is announced, represents only the beginning of a scheme which will he ultimately extended throughout the British Empire, so as to render it to a great extent independent of submarine cables. According to the plans announced the stations will be operated for the first six months on account of the government .'by the Marconi company, and after that will be taken over by the government. The company will be paid a certain sum for each station, exclusive of sites, foundations and buildings. It is further provided that the company shall receive a certain percentage of the gross receipts of all the stations during the terms of the agreement, which is for twenty-eight years. The imperial government, however, has the right to terminate the agreement at the expiration of eighteen years, in which case, however, it would lose the right to use any of the Marconi patents. While this arrangement has been entered into by the governments as an imperial move, something similar to the All Red Route, project, the stations will, of course, be used for eeneral commercial purposes, and it is anticipated that the wide extension of the wireless system will result in a considerable cheapening of long distance communication. It is, expected that the establishment .1 this chain of main long distance stations will result in the installation of a number of smaller ones, which will act. as feeders, so that every colony which has one of these stations will he brought into wireless connection witli a radius of two or three thousand miles, and with other parts of the Empire through tho main sending stations. Incidentally it is expected that it will mean a groat reduction in rates to some of the colonies, as some of them have now to he reached by cables over a very roundabout rout, which means great, expense For instance, the present cable rate between Ureal Britain and British Gutpana is $1.75 per wind, while by wireless it Is expected to bring it down to 2B cents. But while the scheme has big commercial possibilities, it is from an imperial point of view that the governments have taken it up. It is considered that the value of such an Inter-Empire wireless chain can hardly be overestimated, since by It, not only will the imperial government secure cheaper and tjuicker communication with the colonial governments, but it will obtain a more speedy and reliable communication with the fleet. All the vessels are equipped with wireless, and In this way the warships on the Pacific will be brought within almost as close touch with the Admiralty as the fleet toiling in home waters; and as these messages are sent by secret code they would be of little use to possible hostile powers, even if picked out the air by other wireless systems.

SPORTS WOLGAST AND RIVERS Lightweight Champion Will Defend Title Against Mexican in Twenty Bound Battle Ad Wolgast and Joe Rivers, the Mexican lightweight, were matched to fight twenty rounds in the Vernon arena, July 4, for the lightweight title of the world. Manager Tom McCarey of the Vernon club, announced that both boys had agreed to make the lightweight limit, 133 pounds, at ringside. The mat tor of selecting a referee ■was deferred, but it was said that no serious objection was raised by either side to allowing tlie club referee, Charles Eyton. to officiate as the third man in the ring. "I am not at liberty just at present to announce the financial terms agreed upon," said McCarey, "but as adopted, they were eminently satisfactory to both sides." It is known that Wolgast refused to fight Rivers for a purse of $12,- 500, demanding in addition a certain percentage of the moving picture privileges. Fight followers said it was likely that the guarantee first offered Wolgast. would stand for the July 4th encounter, with the probable addition of about forty per cent of the moving picture money. Rivers made no demand upon McCarey, saying he was satisfied to get into the ring with Wolgast on any terms.
