FRIDAY, AUGUST 11, 1911. Price, Five Cents. No. 16. G.T.P. NEW STEAMER Prince John is a Model for the Trade in Which She is to Engage. Queen Charlotte Settlers Will Be Able to Travel With ■■ Greatest Comfort WRITS ISSUED (Special to The Journal) * Ottawa, Aug. 11.—Writs au- * thorizing the election in two * hundred and twenty-one con- * stituencies in the Dominion * were issued yesterday. * The G. T. P. is showing that not alone with respect to land transportation are the facilities of the company to be the best procurable but it has given evidence that the same rule is to apply to the marine end of the services. The latest manifestation in this line is the advent of the Prince John to this port. The trade into which this latest vessel of the G. T. P. fleet is to enter is a growing one and undoubtedly the time will soon come when much larger steamers will be required to fill the duties. The G. T. P., however, did not take the course so often pursued by companies of purchasing a cheap vessel that would meet the immediate denrand. It purchased a vessel and had her rebuilt at heavy expense to make her adaptable to -the trade. It is questionable whether any other trade that has developed as little as the Queen Charlotte one as yet has a vessel combining the same comforts for passengers as has the Prince John. The little steamer, which arrived here from the south on Tuesday evening, had on board Captain Nicholson, the superintendent of the G. T. P. steamship service, and Mrs. Nicholson. The superintendent came north to see the new vessel put into active service. He Is delighted with the latest addition to the fleet, and well he might be. The vessel Is a new one, having been built but a few months before tbe G. T. P. secured her. She was constructed for trade as a freighter about the coasts of the Old. Land and is built to withstand any sea. When acquired by the company she was at once put in the shipyards and house work put in her to meet the requirements of the new trade. Captain Nicholson himself supervised the drawing up of the plans, which have had very careful consideration. The result is that the little vessel would be difficult to improve upon for the class of trade she is to enter. Everything is convenient and not a foot of space has been lost. The house work is all of a substantial character, being of steel throughout. A charming little observation room has been provided and excellent staterooms fitted up along the general lines of the large Princes. There is accommodation for thirty-six people in the stateroom while if needed the dining saloon can be made to accommodate eighteen more. This dining saloon is a credit to the builders, being airy and exceedingly comfortable. The galley Is commodious and there is the fullest provision made in the way of a smoking room. t For steerage passengers' there has been fitted up quarters far superior to those generally provided for this class of travellers. .» The vessel is exceedingly staunch, being built to weather any seas, and being fitted up to go anywhere. She is an economical vessel, consuming heaviest weather, and Is a remarkable sea boat. The placing of the engines aft gives her an appearance of staunchness unexcelled in many larger vessels:' In addition to a large and well arranged steerage accommodation for 150, she has first class accommodation; a very neat and comfortable smoking room finished in fumed oak with leather upholstery, and buffet in connection. This is accessible only from first class quarters. The dining saloon, seating forty-four, is done In mahogany with crimson upholstery and drapings, and is situated on the anchor deck. Attached to it is a large pantry and galley, conveniently laid out. The . chief steward's offices and men's washrooms are located also on this deck. The dining room Is reached by a mahogany stairway leading from the lounge room on the shade deck into a well proportioned , and air vesti- but, also mahogany panelled and decorated. The principal stateroom accommodation is situated on the shelter deck, and consists of eighteen two berth staterooms of large sibe, well ventilated and all having outside windows. These rooms are furnished with folding lavatories, spring berts and hair mattresses. Forward of this is a very neat semi-circular observation room, with large plate glass windows, done in white and gold and furnished with wicker chairs. This room is the most attractive feature of the steamer. Above this Is the pilot house and officers' quarters. On the after-part of the lower deck there is ample promenading space for steerage passengers, and on the shade and upper decks there is ample shelter and lounge space for first class passengers. The ship has a cargo capacity of 450 tons, In addition to ber bunkers, and altogether will be a convenient and comfortable vessel, well adapated for the purpose for which she is intended. o DROWNED IN FRASER FEELING DEVELOPS AGAINST RECIPROCITY Ontario Farmers Show a Revulsion of the Terms of the Pact Proposed to be Entered Into by the Government—Conservatives are Gaining as the Fight Continues. (Special to The Journal) Toronto, Aug. 11.—Beyond nomination conventions in a few ridings the political campaign in Ontario has not yet begun in real earnest. The fight will commence next Tuesday, when R. L. Borden, leader of the Conservative party, opens the Ontario campaign at Ion. The Conservative party throughout the province is thoroughly organ ized and the indications from all over the province augur well for the future. In .many sections where at first reciprocity was hailed as beneficial to Canada, there has been a marked change in sentiment and the confidence that was expressed by the Liberals that the farmers of the province will endorse the pact has received a decided setback. KILLED AT TUNNEL Cave in of Rock at Kitselas Results in the Death of One Workman. Two Others Were Injured in Accident at Head of Construction Work the RETURNING OFFICER * (Special to The Journal) * * Ottawa, Aug. 11.—P. P. Har- * *' rlson of Cumberland has been * * appointed returning officer for * * Comox-Atlin electoral district * * for the forthcoming election. * only about twelve tons of coal a day. Under command of Captain Wear- mouth, the Prince John entered upon her service on Wednesday, proceeding to the Queen Charlottes. A more detailed description of the vessel is as follows: The steamer is 185 feet long, 30 feet beam, and 13 feet 3 inches moulded depth, built of steel and classed 100 Al at Lloyds. She has seven watertight bulkheads with double bottom, affording ample ballast and fresh water storage, large bunkers, two multitubular Scotch boilers, triple expansion engines, capable of a speed of 12 knots under full doaded conditions. The vessel has been modelled to stand the Five Nen Working on Canadian Northern Construction Lose Live;. Addition to List of Fatalities Connected With Work Near Hope (Special to The Journal) Hope, Aug. 11.—Five men, names unknown, were drowned on Wednesday in the Fraser River at Saddle Rock, the first flag station above Yale. They were part of a gang attempting to place a cable across the river. The scow with three men was swept away but made the shore lower down. The five men were In a small boat and were overcome by the current. This makes a total of nine drowned sinf'e the beglning of preparations for railway construction from Hope northeastward on tlie line of the Canadian Northern Pacific. o A Rich Country Aid. George Kerr has returned to Prince Rupert after a visit to Hazelton and district, where he looked into conditions. He Is more than pleased with the outlook in the interior. There Is an immense country with facilities in the way of agriculture and mining that It will take years to fully develop. The northern Interior, in the opinion of Aid. Kerr, is second to no place in the Dominion. Fires Do Damage Robert Jennings, road superintendent, has returned from a tour of inspection among the various road camps up the Skeena. He reports that good progress is being made. The continued dry weather has made It very difficult to keep the forest fires under control and in consequence there lias been considerable loss in tlie Lakelse, Kiliuaiigan and other valleys in tlie district. A cavein of rock at the G. T. P. tunnel now under construction near Kitselas resulted in the death of one workman. Two other men were injured in the accident. The rock at this point is not very solid and has given the workmen quite an amount of trouble. The details of the accident are not fully known. It was not due, however, to any explosion, but to the rock caving. CHANGES IN CABINET Dr. Beland Has Been Taken in as Postmaster-General-Other Appointments Made. Successor to Sir Alan Aylesworth Has Not Yet Been Named by the Government CLEARING RIGHT OK WAY Mr. Shendy of Contracting Firm Leaving for Interior to Push Forward Work M. Sheady & Co. have already commenced work in a small way on the clearing of the right-of-way for the G. T. P. beyond Aldermere. Mr. Sheady is at present in the city and will leave, In company with J. C. Shepard, the superintendent of Foley, Welch & Steward on th* coast, and V. W. Smith tomorrow for the interior. Mr. Sheady will then take steps to have the work pushed' forward with all expedition. The contract entered into into is for twenty miles of the way, the cost being $60,000. Reserved Judgment Judge Lampman has been hearing the evidence in Guraski vs. McMordie for the past few days. The evidence is all in now and judgment has been reserved. The action is one for alleged breach of contract preferred by station men. Fred Peters, K. C, represented the prosecuting station men, while L. W. Patmore appeared for the defense. (Special to The Journal) Ottawa, Aug. 11,—The government yesterday made an order appointing Dr. Beland of Beauce postmaster general; Hon. R. Lemieux minister of marine, and Hon. L. P. Brodeur a judge of the supreme court. A successor to Sir Alan Aylesworth as minister of justice will be named later.

They arrived in the city by the Prince Rupert and yesterday proceeded by special train, in company with W. C. C. Mehan, general superintendent, and G. A. McNicholl, superintendent, to the end of the track. They made a full inspection of the line, getting exact information for the guidance of the board. The board of railway commissioners is to sit here on August 19, when any questions of a local nature coming within the scope of the board's work will be taken up. NEGOTIATIONS PROGRESSING Government Is Considering the Question of Agreement with G. T. P. at Present Held Picnic The Ladies' Aid of the Methodist Church held a picnic to Metlakatla yesterday.

Duncan lloss Will lie the Choice of the Local Liberal Party Representatives Pleased With City E. P. Miller, secretary-treasurer of the Dominion Trust Company, Vancouver, is in the district. He came north on a holiday trip, going as far as Skagway. On the way south, however, he was attracted to Prince Rupert and stopped off in order to take a look over the place. He became more or 'ess enamored of the city and has finally decided to visit the interior of the province and see what that part has to offer. He has gone as far as Kitselas but will return in a day or two. Mr. Miller is very agreeably surprised to find the progress Prince Rupert is making. He is satisfied that there is a great future for it and is pleased to see the progress already made. Harry Howson of Victoria, so well known to the mining men of the north, returned to the city this week. He has gone to Goose Bay and Alice Arm in connection with some properties he represents there. He will probably go up the Skeena on his return to the city. l^*+^^^**^**********»*^**»*^*+**+***»-if**+»*»**#»*»*** Meeting Tonight!

Reported lo lie Heading for Pine River Pass From Edson FAVORS PRINCE RUPERT * Speaking at a dinner given In * his honor In London* Premier • McBride, during bis recent visit, * said from his own knowledge * of Prince Rupert and the ail- * joining territory, anil with the • development promised by the * Grand Trunk Pacific, he bad no * hesitation in saying that within * five years those who wished to * seek a new home would find * none better than at Prince Ru- • pert. « an opportunity to meet the delegates and express their wishes as to the candidate to be selected. This Is the object of the meeting tonight. The delegates attending the convention in Nanalmo will leave by the Prince George on Monday morning, reaching Nanaimo on Tuesday afternoon. While there is consederable speculation as to the probable candidate, nothing will be known definitely until the delegates have nn't In Nanalmo and considered the* whole question. There is every indication that the Grand Trunk Pacific will head for the South Pine Pass with their projected branch line north from Edson, construction work on which Is expected to commence this summer, says the Edmonton Capital. E. A. Knudson, a prospector and trapper who has spent the last four years on the shores of Rocky Mountain Lake, 200 miles south of Fort St. John, B. C, stated that U, T. P. survey stakes extend right from the Pouce Coupe Prairie through the Soulh Pine Pass. Through this section of the country the levels of the right- of-way have been taken and the route has been staked out carefully, all the stakes rearing the marks of tlie (Irani! Trunk Pacific. Mr. i-vnudson says that this line was staked In tbe summer of 1907. Canadian Pacific surveyors have also been through this pass. They ran a trail line some time before the G. 1*. I'. and the route they have chosen is not so clearly defined. Mr. Knudson stated thai tbe grade through the pass should not lie a difficult one, as the summit Is very low at tills point. The pass is qutle wide and there Is ample room for railway lines. In ibis ii differs from tlie Yellowhead Pass, farther Bouth. Mr, Knudson lias visited 111*> pass several times with other prospectors and trappers, lie' came from his post at Rocky Mountain Lake aboul a month ago. Since tlie opening of spring G.T.P, surveyors have been running trail lines north of Kelson toward the Athabasca River and il is understood that they have selected a suitable location with respect to grades and other nee'essary consideration. This Is presumably a line to serve the Grande Prairie country but the fact that the copany has already made definite surveys through the Pouce Coupe country nnd on to the mountains is substantial ground for the belief that the company is looking for a northern route to the Pacific Coast.

PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL Friday, August 11, 1911. j« **« •;+ »ji *j* »*- .*• .j. •*<! »j» tj» ►*♦»;« •*«» PEACE MOVEMENT At the meeting of tlie Peace Society In the Unitarian Church, Tokio, Count Okuma made an address on modern tendencies. Tbe following . report appeared in the Japan Times: "Mr, Mtrko asked me to address the meeting today on the subject put up, by liim when l was present al the Keio University yesterday to speak for the Economic Society there, so you must know thai I stauel here with no preparations made, but that I stand here with empty bands to grasp something beneficial and Instructive for you tie enlist your cooperation in the movement In which 1 myself am a member." Turning to the paper hanging from the wall, he read the topic on which he himself was announced to speak, and continued: "The tendency of the world: Tliis is the problem I can hardly give any justice to, but i am firmly convinced of the fact that It Is the tendency of the world that has brought so many people here just to listen to my humble statements. As a member of the Japan Peace Society, i should say peace will be realized In the near future, but 1 confess it is yet far to seek. One who is to dwell upon the tendency of (be world must, first of all, mention the population of the world. Though 1 do not remember the exact numbers of the world's population, let me say that there are about 1,600,000,000, one-fourth of which are Europeans and Americans, and of the remaining two-thirds Asiatics. So, if discussed from the standpoint of number, it is sufficiently obvious the Asiatics are innately responsible for the immediate participation in the peace movement before western friends advance in the march of the movement. But here a lamentable difficulty follows, that we Asiatics are yet inferior to the Westerners in intellectual development and remain fast in the cradle stage of civilization. Why does not Japan stand up and enforce this enlightened movement of peace and human happiness? Japan's activity in the movement would, certainly result in the awakening of other nations of the Orient and encourage them to follow her example. , "Tbe political difficulty that now perplexes the heads of European statesmen is along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, especially from Morocco to Alexandria. Morocco Is the centre of this serious question. If the country is ever exposed to danger, it will have an effect upon the peace of the world. Centre our ateentlon upon Turkey, since the foundation of Turkey by Ottoman, the constant struggle is between this empire of Muhammadanism with the .Christian countries of Europe, and few years passed without a quarrel is raised among the countries. What they call 'Glory In heaven and peace on earth' is not yet realized after many centuries. I hastily proceed lo the conditions of Egypt. Our intelligent friend Mr. Roosevelt once gave a severe blow to the administration of Egypt with words quite unusual and striking for a prominent citizen of a republic. Anyway, Egypt is not altogether well administered. As for India, if Mr. Roosevelt is again called to speak, he will criticize tlie country in a similar way. Mr, Bryan also severely criticized India, but Americans should be reminded eif bow they treated the American Indians, Tlie United States includes every race of the world extensively scatter over forty- tliree stales, with a population of more than 100,000,000. But t lie more the Latins have become introduced Into tlie country, the harder has become the assimilative power of tin- Anglo-Saxon, hence the natural difficulty of the unification of their ideas. In not more than a century the population of the United States will be multiplied to 400,000,000. Then it will be another Europe from the standpoint of numbers. Europe has already reached its climax of wealth, but America's wealth is still growing, as fields and mountains are the source of abundant riches. So, naturally, many people will enter the United States and the country will be more and more complex. Prudent and sensible Americans are a peace loving people. The spirit of Christianity is In conformity with thai of love, humanity, and freedom, but regrettable enough to contest such a spirit is not felt west of tin Rocky Mountains. Tbe Rocky Mountains arc rocky indeed. "The slieiri International peace is far tu seek, judging from the presenl tendency of the world. But I am a constant believer in international peace. You say you are discouraged by my words? Don't say so. Cheer up! A great light is before us. It is nothing less than international arbitration. President Taft is going to secure peace by international arbitration. His efforts may soon convince tlie kaiser of assisting this movement. 1 dare say If America, England, Germany and France would unite and seriously face this question in order to bring it to a happy solution, the peace of the world at least would be brought to light. Then how should Japan face this question? The emporer himself, being the great advocate of peace, his subjects, one and all are urged to be peacemakers. Then this question is solved But here is the one obstacle which greatly impedes the peace movement of the world—that is, racial prejudice. This is my urg- ent entreaty—nay, it is that of the Japanese nation. But at the same time you must bear in mind that you ought to be circumspect about your conduct. Whatever religion you may believe in, you must try not to forget this advice of mine. Let me repeat again, the removal of racial prejudice is an important condition for ensuring the peace of the world." o BERING SEA PATROL Under the terms of the naval agreement between the Imperial, Canadian and Australian governments entered into at the Imperial Conference the sphere of action of the Canadian Pacific warships is placed as follows: "The Canadian Pacific station will include the waters north of 30 degrees north latitude and east of the meredian of ISO degrees longitude." This sphere includes tbe waters as far south as Lower California and about half way across the Pacific and northward to the Arctic, including Bering Sea. Under the terms of the sealing agreement it is anticipated that the station will have hereafter to provide the patrol vessel to go yearly to Bering Sea, as Great Britain, as one of the signatory nations included In the treaty, lias agreed to provide a patrol vessel. As Britain acted for Canada in the agreement and Canada is to receive the advantage derived it is expected that Canada will have to supply the patrol and next season will probably see the Rainbow started for Bering Sea on a cruise similar to that now being undertaken by 11.

PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL ************************$,* | PRINCE OF WALES ! ************************** Albert Edward was a onth old when he was created Prince of Wales, and the ceremonies attending the granting of the title were necessarily brief. At the age of 36 the present king was raised from the rank of Duke of Cornwall and York to the title so long held by his father. In the case of King George, too, the ceremonies were simple, and were not such as would interest the people of Wales more than the people of Ireland or New Zealand. On Thursday last, however, Prince Edward Albert was Invested with thhe title of Prince of Waies In surroundings hardly less Impressive and magnificent than those of the coronation itself, in the ancient Castle of Car-j narvon, wliere the first English Prince of Wales was given the title, the future king was solemnly charged with his new office, and swore to hold the principality to the king and his heirs. It is needless to say that the revival of the ancient ceremonies in the heart of Wales delighted the Welsh people, who regard the coro-i nation as a small affair compared with the investiture of a Prince of Wales. Many people learned for the first time shortly after King Edward came to the throne that the title of Prince of Wales is not a hereditary one. The general supposition was, the male heir apparent to the British throne is always Prince of Wales, and entitled to the tile the instant he became the heir. As a matter of fact, the present king was not made Prince of Wales until several months had elapsed with his father on the throne. It rested with the king to say when he should be given the title, or whether he should be given it at all. Indeed, the question has been raised whether the king could not create anyone he chose Prince of Wales, and the Constitutionalists seem to be of the opinion that nothing but precedent selects the heir- apparent as the proper wearer of the title. The fact remains that of the 24 British kings since Edward II, the first English Prince of Wales, only 12 have been prices of Wales, and that six otner Princes of Wales have never sat on the throne of England. There were Princes of Wales before there were English kings, though the holders of that title were then little more than mountain chiefs. Llewellyn, the last of the Celtic line was a great man and a fit foeman for Edward I, who was to break his power and attach Wales to the English crown. For years Llewellyn, who had united the Welsh people against the invader, kept up a gallant struggle, but was eventually slain in battle, and Edward was sullenly acknowledged as overlord of the mountain principality. He realized that his hold on Wales was none too strong, and might be broken when a fovrable opportunity arose for revolt, so he sought to placate the people. He promised them, it is said, that he would create a new Prince of Wales, one of noble birth, with no stain upon his honor, and who could speak no word of English. The assembled chiefi- tains were delighted with the pledge, and then, so the story goes, Edward caused to be brought down among them his son, who had been born in Carnarvon Castle two days before. "This is your Prince of Wales," said Edward. It cannot be said that the first Prince of Wales was one to shed much honor on the name, for his period of misrule was ended by a conspiracy that resulted in his pedo- sltion and violent" death. It has been pointed out that five of the succeeding Princes of Wales have been the victims of tragedies—four being beheaded. Of the 18 Princes of Wales, only four, namely, the Black Prince, Henry V, George IV, and Edward VII, died natural deaths, the others on the list either meeting violent deaths or having their deaths hastened by insanity or dissipation. Had not King Edward refuted the suverslltion, it might have been urged that Edward was an ill-omened name for a Prince of Wales to bear since Edward II, Edward IV, and Edward V, all Princes of Wales, were murdered. No name has been so intimately associated with the Princedom of Wales as that of Edward, and it is to be remembered that it was an Edward, the Black Prince who made the title honored throughout Europe. The young prince who received the title is, as the Duke' of Connaught remarked, only a boy, but he is a boy of promise, and in the past few months has matured rapidly. He is still a cadet at the Royal Naval College at Dartmouth, but will soon go to Oxford for a short university course. Afterwards be will probably be gazetted into one of the cavalry regiments. Before then, however, we are likely to see him in Canada, for a tour of the world is projected for the prince in the near future, and he will be welcomed to this country by his uncle, the Duke of Connaught, our next governor general, and by eight million loyal Canadians.

Next week the Conservative party will nominate a candidate to contest tin.- Comox-Atlin riding, if a strong candidate is selected there is little doubt as ie' tlie' results. The party can win tin- seat. The question of reciprocity is an Importanl one in a new country like this— just as Importanl as in any part of tlie province or of the Dominion. There is an immense new territory to develop here. This city should become a manufacturing and distributing centre witli a producing territory all around it furnishing the raw material and ihe means of living for tlie population that must live here. On the face of it protection to these producers should be of decided benefit. Anything that will prevent the building up of prosperous farming settlements within reach of this city will be a drawback to the place to that extent. The experience in this province has been that it requires a lot of fostering and encouragement to induce agricultural settlement. Other lines of enterprise, such as mining, hold out such strong inducements that the farms are liable lo.be neglected owing to the fact that the making of a farm in a wooded country is attained only after years of hard work with small returns when compared with the results often obtained by a prospector. The retention of the home market for the settlers upon the lands of tlie district Is therefore something to be sought if iliese occupiers of the land are to remain satisfied with their lot. AS UNDERSTOOD IN GEHMAXY I News-Advertiser) It Is more interesting that pleasant to note what is said in European countries over tbe reciprocity treaty, and Sir Wilfrid Laurier's recent declaration of neutrality in British wars. A setrlking comment is found in tha Frankfort Zeitung, one of tlie leading journals of the German Empire, whose leader on tlie Britisii Imperial Conference we find translated in part In the Toronto News. The Zeitung states that the keynote of the Imperial Conference was given by Canada, and "is a thoroughly anti-imperialist note." Tlie German journal adds: "What we have in mind is the declaration of the prime minister of Canada, a declaration so incredible that when we first published it we were inclined to doubt if our message had been correctly transmitted," Sir Wilfrid Laurier's declaration is next quoted and the Zeitung wants to know where ih« different parts of the Empire to come in. Then it adds: "It is characteristic thai all the chief Liberal papers In England maintain a silence as to the grave on Laurier's declaration—almost as if the word of command had been passed round to tell them to do so Possibly attempts may be made later on to minimize the effect of tlie declaration but no one who will read it In its context can receive the impression that it was innocuous. Af- ti'i- all there can be no doubt that tlie Empire would cease to be in existence once the colonies really took the line indicated by Laurier's declaration. The Empire would be no more an empire than a marriage is a'marriage which on ly counts in good times and nol in bail limes. If the conception of political unity is to have any meaning whatever it must follow the idea so beautifully expressed In the English wedding service, 'for better, for worse, In sickness and In health. "We outsiders call treat this question of the relations between England and her self-governing colonies purely as spectators. And as such we are bound definitely to note the seriousness of the declaration, coming as it does from Canada, which in the last decade has with astonishing consistency and vigor extended its internal Independence to external affairs, and which has now let its economic policy culminate In the reciprocity treaty with the United States, which Is directly injurious to England." There, is a note of exultation as well as surprise in the comments of the German journalist. Canadians may protest against the conclusions of the Zeitung, but it is not easy to construe the premier's words into any other meaning. Whatever explanation Sir Wilfrid himself may make, it. cannot be disputed that he has given foreigners sufficient reason to believe that the British Empire can no longer depend upon Canada in time of need. | News of the Province j * i * * * * * * * * * * * *»■ * * * * * * * * * * * * * i LIBERAL CANDIDATES NEW* WESTMINSTER—A meeting of the Liberal Association was held on Monday and local prospects were discussed. Two names were mentioned as possible candidates for tlie Westminster riding and these may be suggested to the convention. The names were Alexander Henderson, late commissioner of the Yukon, and His Honor Judge .Mclnnes. Nothing definite was decided, and after the meeting was adjourned the executive of the club held a private discussion about the coming campaign. VICTORIA—"There are so many complaints reaching the office of persons illegally starting land clearing fires during this dry weather that we have decided to make an example of a few of these offenders," says Fire Commissioner Gladwin. "The department recognized the wisdom and paramount necessity of refusing further permits for the present, on account of the tinder-like condition of the forests, but several fires have of late been started by settlers ignoring the regulation of the department. We know who these offenders are and will push prosecutions against them. Warnings and argument as to the public danger do not seem-suf- ficient with some." According to Mr. Gladwin the fires along the northern mainland coast are now well in hand, with the exception of a fire still raging on Nelson Island. A special force of fighters has been sent there, and It is hoped will soon have it subdued. ARBITRATION TREATY Text of Agreement Entered Into Between United States ami (heal Britain Tlie arbitration treaty between Great Britain and the United States, which lias passed the United States senate, provides as follows: Article 1—All differences hereafter arising between the high contracting parties, which it has not been possible to adjust by diplomacy, relating to international matters In Which the high contracting parties are concerned by virtue of a claim of right made by one against the other under treaty or otherwise, and which are adjustable in their nature by reason of being suceptible of decision by the application of the prin- eiples of law or equity, shall be submitted to the permanent court of arbitration established at Tbe Hague by the convention of October IS, 1907, or to some other arbitral tri bunal as may decided in each case by special agreement, which special agreement shall provide for the organization of such tribunal if necessary, shall define the scope of the powers of the arbitrators, the question or questions at issue, and shall settle the terms of reference and the procedure thereunder. , "The spcial agreement in each case shall be made on the part of the United States by the president of the United States, by and with the advice and consent of the senate thereof, his majesty's government reserving the right before concluding a special agreement in any matter affecting the interests of. a self-governing Dominion of the British Empire to obtain the concurrence therein of the government of said dominion.

Article II—The high contracting parlies further agree to institute as occasion arises, and as hereinafter provided, a joint high commission of inquiry, to which, upon the request of either party, shall be referred for impartial and conscientious investigation any controversy between the parties within the scope of Article A, before such controversy has been submitted to arbitration, and also any other controversy hereafter arising between them, even if they are not agreed that it falls within the scope of Article 1; provided, however, that such reference may be postponed until the expiration of one after the date of the formal request therefor, in order to afford an opportunity for di'splomatic discussion and adjustment of the questions in controversy, if either party desires such postponement. Whenever a question or matter of difference is referred to the joint committee of inquiry, as herein provided, each of the high contracting parties shall designate three of its nationals to act as members of the commission of Inquiry for the purpose of such reference; or the commission may be otherwise constituted in any particular case by the terms of reference to be determined in each case by an exchange of notes. Article III—The'joint high commission of inquiry instituted in each case as provided for in Article II, is authorized to examine into and report upon the particular questions or matters referred to it, for the purpose of facilitating the solution of disputes by elucidating the facts, and to define the issues presented by such questions and also to include in its reports such recommend- ! ations and conclusions as may be appropriate. It is further agreed, however, that In cases in which the parties disagree as to whether or not a difference is subject to arbitration under Article 1 of this treaty, that question shall be submitted to the joint high commission of inquiry* and if all are but one of the members of the commission agree and report that such difference is within the scope of Article 1, it shall be referred to arbitration in accordance with theh provisions of this treaty. Article IV—The commission shall have power to administer oaths to witlinesses and take evidence on oath whenever deemed necessary in any proceding, or inquiry, or matter within its jurisdiction under this treaty; and the high contracting parties agree to adopt such legislation as may be appropriate and necessary to give the commission the powers above mentioned, and lo provide for the issue of subpoenas and for compelling the attendance of witnesses In the proceedings before the commission. Article V—The commission shall meet whenever called upon to take an examination and report under the terms of this treaty, and the commission may fix such times and places for its meetings as may be necessary at all times at special call or direction of the two governments.

PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL ***************************************************** j AMONG THE MINES ! V * I*************,**************************************** STARTS SHIPPING Red Cliff Mine at Stewart is Connected by Rail With Salt Water. Arrangements Made to Ship Ore to Ladysinilh Smelter at Good Rates The Red Cliff Mining Company is celebrating today the connecting up of the mines with the railway from Stewart. A party of shareholders went north on the Prince Rupert this week, including Erskine Smith, A. D. Tennant, who represents a large amount of English capital, and several of the Old Country Investors. They will mark the occasion in a fitting manner, and from now on shipments will be made from the property Speaking of the prospects there, Mr. Tennant pointed out that the company finds it possible to have the ore shipped to Ladysmith and smelted there, to whole cost, including mining, not exceeding $4-50 a ton. This is possible owing to the quality of Ihe ore, which does not require the addition of any fluxes. With the ore running into values to $20 a ton the returns to the company are thus excellent. At the present stage of development the company will take out and ship about 2,000 tdns a month to the Ladysmith smelter. The body of ore In sight warrants the putting in of a smelter on the ground, Mr, Tennant thinks, and this may be done a little later. Under the exceptionally good rates obtained, however, the company is prepared to ship to Ladysmith . for a time at least. RARE MINERALS Excitement Reigns in the Kootenays Over Discovery of Platinum Ore TO TAKE OUT COAL Interior Property Will be Fully Developed to Neet Demands of North. Measures Located on the Line of the G. T. P. Will Re Opened Dp Hy Owners Alexander Faulds, M. E., after examining the coal measures of the Grand Trunk Pacific Coal Company near Hazelton, has gone south. Ills mission was one of deciding where the work to develop the property properly should be carried out. This location of the shaft, after the results of drilling, will be within one hundred feet of the Grand Trunk Pacific main line, says the Omineca Herald. The site Is an ideal one for an operating colliery because of the facilities in the shape of water power, townsites and excellent agri- culturanl lands. .lames Wright, the manager, stated that Mr. Faulds had been engaged to thoroughly examine the property and to present his report, which would enable the company to determine the quickest and most economical way to develop this new coal field. The company has ine seams varying in width from nineteen inches to si xfeet. The six foot seam, or No. 2 tunnel, is 148 feet on the strike, and a slope of 32 feet. No. 1 tunnel has about 140 feet slope, while No. 3 tunnel is in 54 feet on the strike. Considerable work has also been done on one or two other seams for the purpose of locating for drill holes, and it is intended to send up a diamond drill this fall and drill at least 2,000 feet. The coal is a semi-anthracite .and is excellent as steam or coking coal. o NOT IX PAYING QUANTITIES C. Oamscll, Dominion Government Expert, Makes Examination of Tulameen Diamonds Not for many years has there been so much excitement in the Kootenays over a milling discovery as that which has followed the announcement by A. Gordon French-that platinum and other almost priceless metals of the same group had been found in paying quantities at the Granite Poorman mine. For the past month a few Nelson men who had heard of the discovery have been staking all the available ground in the vicinity of the dyke in which the chief values were found and which extends for many miles in the direction of Eagle and Foiiy-Nnine creeks, and many scores of claims have been recorded at the government offices. Since the news became public every morning scores of prospectors have left the city, returning at Intervals to record claims. The result Is that at present there is believed to be hardly a foot of tin- staked ground in the territory supposed to be traversed by the dyke, which lias been proved at and near the Granite Poorman to contain vast quantities of high priced metals. Many of the claims first staked have been recorded in the names of J. . P. Swedeberger, A. Gordon French, Thomas Gough, Mrs. Ida E. Wilson, Dr. \V. X. Wilson, J. G. Devlin and E. E. Gullle, but dozens of others are ready to be recorded. That the discovery was known and kepi a secret for some weeks is indicated by the fact that samples were sent for assay to Butte and Ottawa in order to make absolutely sure that no mistake had been made as to the existence of the group of five metals, platinum, Iridium, palladium, rhodium and osmium. The result was thai answers came back giving returns which, especially considering the low cost of mining; ore from the dyke and cost of treating, make the operation of the properties upon which the minerals exist amazingly profitable. The direction of the dyke has not yet been fully established, but it was reported that It had been traced across the Kootenay River below Eagle Creek and that on the other hand it extends to the soutli of Nelson In the direction of the Venus mine. .Yesterday all assayers in the city' were hard at work testing many hundreds of samples, In some of which the, metals of the platinum group were plainly visible to the naked eye.

THE CONTINENTAL TRUST COMPANY, LIMITED SECOND AVENUE PRINCE RUPERT, B. C. Rev. R. W. Lee, Methodist missionary at Kispiox, was in the city on his way south. He left for Vancouver this morning, Charles Camsell, Dominion govern- ment niineralogical and geological surveyor, arrived a few days ago in Merritt from Tulameen and Princeton. Mr, Camsell has become famous reecntly as the discoverer of diamonds in the Tulameen, about which so much has been written in American papers, and which has caused widespread discussion in the Old World and throughout the Empire. In conversation, whi'e at Merritt, Mr. Camsell stated that he and his party had been working in the Tulameen for about three weeks, endeavoring to extract specimen diamonds from the rocks. "In this I cannot say we were very successful," said Mr. Camsell, "inasmuch as the river was very high and we were unable to go down so far as we did last year. We secured a few fair samples, however, and I have sent them on to Vancouver." "Are they in payable quantities in the Tulameen?" he was asked. "Well," he replied, "I cannot say that I think they are. There is undoubtedly a large and valuable deposit there, but we have found that the chromite, In which the diamonds occur, being so hard, and not having disintegrated, or rotted and softened, as is the case of diamond pipes in the Klmberley fields, tends to powder up as soop as the pressure of the surrounding rock is removed. The shock Invo'ved in breaking up the rock around the chromite also shatters the diamonds; so that we found that about all we were able to get was In the form of ine dust, and valueless. We did, however, manage to get a few well preserved samples, which we have sent away." "Then," he wns asked, "you think that the work Involved In getting out the diamonds would make It costly to operate on a paying basis?" "1 think so," he said. Mr. Camsell will now go Into Steamboat to make an investigation for the Dominion government. He has sent his party into the mountains with pack trains by way of Princeton. They would have gone In earlied, even last fall, had 'not the snowfall In that section been too heavy for it to be possible to make any accurate survey of the mineral deposits of the district. o Bright Future "Vancouver is destined to be to Canada what San Francisco is to the United States, and Prince Rupert will be the Canadian Seattle." This Is the prophecy made by President .1. C. Si'Iitiriiian of Cornell University. I Where Togo Trained I •*••**•••••••***•*•****••* Togo's nava.1 training was begun in England, where, as a young man, he attended the naval > college in Greenwich. He also inherited his taste for the sea, as he came of the Satsuma c'an, a tribe noted for its great sea warriors, says the New York Evening Post. Indeed, prior to the time of the Chino-Japanese war, the Japanese fleet was manner .almost wholly by the Satsuma clan, just as the army was drawn from the Choshit clan. Nowadays, neither navy nor army is entirely given over to these, the two most powerful of the clans of Japan, but many men fronr' all over the empire are to be found hi both services. When Togo entered the navy, however, its whole personnel was Satsuma. Returning to Japan, he was employed in various capacities. In 1894, when war borke out between China and Japan, he was in command of the Naniwa, a cruiser of 3,650 tons, one of the vessels composing what was then known as the first flying squadron of the Japanese navy. During the war he greatly distinguished himself, and earned the reputation of being a first class fighting man. It was in connection with the episode of the sinking of the Wow- shing that his name first came into world wide prominence. At the time some adverse criticism of his action on that occasion were heard, but these died away on a fuller knowledge of the circumstances. The story reveals something of the character of the man, so it is worth telling. The Kowshing, a transport vessel flying the Britisii flag, with a Britisii captain and crew, and carrying some 1,100 Chinese soldiers for Asan, was met by Togo in the Naniwa, who signalled to her, by firing two blank cartridges, to stop, which she did. Thereafter a Japanese lieutenant went on board, the Kowshing with a peremptory order from Togo that the transport must proceed no farther toward her destination, but at once accompany ihe NaniVa to the main Japanese fleet. Captain Galsworthy of the Kowshing was willing to obey these orders, but not so minded were the officers of the Chinese force on the vessel; they inunediatly raised a great clamor, and threatened Galsworthy. Seeing what was occuring Togo sent a boat to bring off Captain Galsworthy and his crew, but meanwhile the disturbance and confusion on the nowshing had increased and the Chinese provented them from leaving hi*. Some time thn passed, and at length Togo signalled Galsworthy to take one of his own boats and come over to Hi .Naniwa, but the British captain was not allowd by the Chinese to do so. For four hours Togo stood off and on, trying to save him and his ship, but, finding there was no chance of this, he at last ordered the red flag, which announced that he was about to fire, to be hoisted. A few moments later a well directed shot from the Naniwa struck the' engine room and penetrated the hull of the Kowshing, which soon afterwards filled and sank. As Galsworthy and his men leaped Into the sea, they were fired ou by the Chinese. Togo at once sent out boats, and rescued as many as he could. In this way Togo began the Chino- Japanese war. His countrymen never forgot the part he played In this episode. Incidentally, he was surprised to find that the English captain, Galsworthy, bad been an "hi classmate of his years before.

Borden Condemns Reciprocity Agreement from Standpoint of Economics The Financial News of London publishes an Interview which its special representative had a few days ago at Ottawa with R. L. Borden, in the course of which the leader c-f the Opposition states: "My views-upon the threatened reciprocity .agreement have been expressed many times in parliament and upon the public platform. That agreement completely reverses the policy of the past forty years and strongly tends to destroy the whole meaning of our confederation and to disintegrate its fabric. Its avowed object is to withdraw Canada from any closer trade connections with the Empire.

TITE Complete House Furnisher THIRD AVENUE LIGHT ON CIPHER Biblical Antiquities are Unearthed as a Result of Recent Finding in Jerusalem. Hiding Place of Treasures Is Referred to in the Discovery .Made by Syndicate Further light has been shed on the secret cipher that is supposed to have led the English syndicate, under Captain Parker, to begin its excavations underneath the MosQue of Omar at Jerusalem, a labor that resulted recently in the unearthing of valuable Biblical antiquities. The details given below are believed to be authentic. Dr, Walter II. Juvellus of llcls- lngfors, Finland, in the course of his Biblical studies, found traces of what he believed to be a very complicated cipher which was In part used in the Hebrew texts. He then turned his attention to the Talmud and found there, in the Book of Mischna, an Indication that, hidden in the Book of Ezekiel and in certain of eMoses' Books were valuable sacred secrets which could be declared to no one. Jn his continued research he found In the Book of Ezeklel, in cipher, :i description of a secret hiding place in Jerusalem. In order to check this Infornu tlon, Dr. Juvellus then turned bis atti tlon tee the lieeok of Moses, as a consequence of the him in tbe Talmud that these books also contained valuable in- feeriiialiien in the same cipher, and bearing mi the location of tin- hiding place, in the Hook of Deuteronomy the doctor found further descriptions e.:' Hie hiding place, and still further proof is alleged to have been found in i lie fragment known as the Book oi Jesu ben Syrak. The information conveyed in the cipher was: 1. That there was a secret hiding place in the rayon of Mount Orphel, certainly containing the Tables of Hie Law, the Temple Archives and ihe Temple Treasures. 2. That this biding place was con- nected with the blood canal used for the carrying off of the blood of the sacrificed offerings In the Temple. 3. That this hiding place was In connection also with David's City. It is not stated in the cipher that the Blood Canal and David's City were in direct communication, though this is probable. 4. That David's City was on Mt. Orphel. 5. That the immediate entrance to the treasure chamber was through a cleft deep down in the rock, which was filled up at the time of the hiding of the treasures, and must consequently first be cleared out by any explorers. 6. That the Blood Canal stood in connection with the Temple water system. 7. That there were three approaches to the water system, and tlience to the Blood Canal. One of these was through the Temple Itself, now the Mosque of Omar, and another near to the Virgin's Well (discovered by Sir Charles Warren). The third approach was at a considerable distance and in these days unavailable. That the Blood Canal was of considerable size may be gathered from the fact that at the consecration of the Temple twenty-two thousand oxen and eighteen hundred sheep were slaughtered as sacrifices by King Solomon. So much for the origin and contents of the cipher. That the effort to discover the hiding place was worth making Dr. Javelins declared to be certain. Any exact description of the supposed con- tents e>f the secret chamber would be Impossible, but it was understood that the treasure alone to be found lliere would be worth several millions of pounds. Jesu ben Syralt's book slates very dfintely that the contents of the hiding place certainly Include the Table of the Laws, hidden there until the coining of Ihe Messiah. In addition, it is practically certain, according to the cipher, that Ihe secret place contains treasures of almost incalculable worth, as well as manuscripts and archives of the very highest scientific value. Included in Ihe cipher is a curse, "sixty and sixty fold," on any unauthorized persons who may attempt to disclose the secret chamber. In August, 1909, the first excavations were begun in the greatest secrecy and under various subterfuges as to the real object of the expedition. The work has been continued since, but with certain necessary interruptions. Despatches received from Jersu- lem last May set forth that the excavators had found and carried away certain treasures hidden from the Romans when they sacked Jerusalem in A.D. 70, including Solomon's crown, sword and ring, and that with this plunder they were on a yacht headed for England. Captain Parker said later in an interview that all the antiquities discovered by the Britisii syndicate had been left in the hands of the Turkish government. Just what treasures the explorers discovered has not yet been made known. "I wonder if Mabel takes anything for her lovely complexion." "No. 1 believe she gives something for it."

PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL •••••••••••••••••A********************************** * * I Premier McBride's Views | ••*•••••••••••*•••*•••••*•••***-*•**••*••*****••••••• Premier McBride was given a very hearty reception on his arrival home from the coronation. The prime minister's party had been joined at Van couver by Mrs. McBride, his mother, and hy Hon. Mr. Ross. At the Victoria dock the leader was met and welcomed as he crossed the gangplank by lion. Dr. young, who has been acting head or the government during the chieftain's absence; Hon. Mr. Ellison, Leonard Tail, president of the local Conservative Association; Ernest McGaffey of the Vancouver Island Development League, Mrs. Hasell I who, on behalf of the Alexandra Club, presented Mrs. lie- Bride with a beautiful bouquet of typical Victoria flowers) and a number of others. A Graceful Speech At the Belleville street entrance to the docks the crowd had massed solidly and Hon. Mr. McBride's appearance was the signal for round after round of cheers given with a right good will. The premier was escorted to an open carriage and, preceded by a mounted police escort and the pipers' band, and driven to the doors of llie Parliament Building, wliere an improvised platform had been arranged, and from this Mr. Tait voiced Victoria's welcome. The premier responded in an address which was characteristically direct and informal and In which he expressed his appreciation, both for Mrs. McBride and himself. He sketched deftly the outstanding features of the great ceremonial from which he had just returned, made due acknowledgment of his recognition of the excellent work his colleagues In the cabinet have been accomplishing in his absence, referred to the splendid position which British Columbia at present holds In the heart of the Empire, and assured his fellow-Victorians that he had come back to I hem with enhanced pride ill this splendid province and a stronger Briton and British Columbian than ever. Gives His Views "We had a most enjoyable and profitable trip," said Mr. McBride, "and thanks to the kindness and courtesy of our official hosts, we did not pass a dull moment from the time we landed until the date of our departure. The coronation was a most magnificent spectacle, which aroused to the highest pitch everyone's patriotism and loyalty and made one feel proud of being one of his gracious majesty's subjects." Regarding the rumor whicfi has been current for the past few days that he would enter into federal politics, Mr. McBride said: "I cannot say at this moment what I shall do, for in the first place I have not been advised officially that my services are desired as a member of the federal parliament, but I will say that if such an offer should be made to me i should consider it very seriously before announcing my decision. "It is true that I had a long conference with R. L. Borden while in Ottawa, and whi'e I am not at liberty to divulge the nature of the subjects on that occasion, 1 will say, however, that I have promised the leader of our party to do as usual my share in behalf of my party during the campaign and shall most likely address meetings in Britisii Columbia and Alberta. What IS. C. Will Do "There is no doubt about what British Columbia will do in the coming election. Seven for the Conservatives and a solid front will be the answer of the coast province to Sir Wilfrid Laurier's appeal to the country in September. The feeling is very strong, not only against reciprocity, but against the entire policy of the Laurier government. From Mr. Borden down, the feeling of confidence In the ultimate result of the election is the same. One and all are going into the fight, which, I believe, will be one of the most bitter In the political history of Canada, with unlimited optimism as to the final result. As the result of Mr. Borden's trip to the prairie provinces the Liberals may experience a few startling surprises in that territory when all the votes are in. The Liberals' majority will find deep Inroads even in Quebec, Sir Wilfrid's particular stronghold, and the Conservatives and Nationalists, each party in its own way, is gaining a greater foothold everywhere. The very fact that the Laurier government dissolved so unceremoniously and in such apparent haste, might serve as an indication of the Liberal party's unrest, and prospects were never brighter for a Conservative victory than now. "Regarding the reciprocity question, I am, if anything, more strongly than ever opposed to it. While Britain's leading financiers on the subject, and I cannot recall one single man in favor of it. Speeches made recently hy members of the United States Congress, and even by President Taft, shed a most peculiar light upon this proposed treaty and the very tenor of them would life the subject out of realm of finance into a sphere of politics that must ultimately affect most vitally Canada's economic and social welfare. "Canada has not yet reached the zenith of her wonderful possibilities, and we cannot afford to sell our birthright for a mess or pottage. This country, which has reached a most marvelous state of development and progress, has attained its magnificence through the energy,ingenuity and sagacity of its citizens and it cannot afford to barter Its future happiness and tbe welfare of coming generations upon the dictates of vain-glorious politicians. Canada's citizens will never permit their staunch loyalty to the Mother Country to be dimmed by the shadow of an alliance which arouses the suspicion of all loyal subjects of the Britisii Empire. Canada's Expansion "There are billions, not millions, of British capital ready to pour into British Columbia, for never before in her history has this province stood so well in the eyes of British capital as now, and this is particularly due to our railroad policy, which offers a most desirable assurance to prospective investors of the solidity of our present and future. Canadian railway lines have ordered so far 345,000 tons of steel rails; most of these will be in Western Canada, and our trade for the first two months of the current year totalled $112,170,119, an increase of $7,000,- 000 over the same period last year. All these figures cannot help but have a most favorable impression. "Our timber is millions and millions of acres in extent, and in quality it is the very best that can bo had any very natrally this part of our natural resources is particularly tempting to investors. But I feel that we must exercise, the greatest caution in the manner in which we go about trying to Interest capital in that direction. I feel that we all regard our province as a sacred trust for Canada and the Empire, and we want our brethren and friends in Great Britain who do business with us to have a legitimate return for every dollar, and the same applies to the lands, the fisheries, the mines and other industries of Britisii Columbia. But anxious as we may be to see that our foreign Investors should have a profit, I believe that 1 am speaking for all patriotic and loyal Britisii Columbians when I say that we would perfer that they should not pui a dollar into British Columbia unless they do it with their eyes open and unless it is sound business." o — TREAT? DIM NOT PLEASE Japanese Newspapers Comment Adversely on Changes in the Alnglo- Jnpaiiesc Alliance According to advices, the revision of the alliance between England and Japan has stirred the Japanese papers into an angry mood. The Hochi declares at the outset that the. warning which it has repeatedly sounded that there were prospects of a change In the Anglo-Japanese alliance has at last assumed a definite form, a change which may cause great alteration in the Japanes programme of national defence and which may put the country In a decided hut notbrll- liant Isolation. In the next place, the Tokio paper pronounces the opinion that the new development of affairs is something very far removed from the existing treaty of alliance. Great Britain, says the Hochl.'has nothing to fear about the Russian Invasion of India. And yet naval competition with Germany has driven our allies to join hands with the American nation. The arbitration treaty is aimed at Germany in Europe and Japan in Asia, as the signatories to the treaty profess that the identity of interest and circumstances between both of them make It a thing of necessity. As regards the theory that Japan must hold steadfast to the Anglo- Japanese alliance at all costs, the Hochi thinks the alliance will be discarded when the arbitration treaty is brought into being, because the latter's real Intention is to isolate Japan, politically speaking, Irom the rest of the world. When, It is continued, the Russo-Japanese convention was made it was regarded by some as somewhat neutralising the benefits England derived out of the B THE JOURNAL $2.00 a Year | Job Printing | If you want your printing handled expeditiously by thoroughly trained and ex perienced printers have it done at the Journal Office. THE JOURNAL —$2.00 a Year ment is, in the paper's eyes, exactly coincident with this view. In conclusion, the Hochi says that the proposed arbitration treaty shows Japan that she is to drink the bitter cup to the dregs and that self- reliance is of the first importance. And to be self-reliant the nation must have a large navy. The Mainichi declares as follows: Now an arbitration treaty is on the point of signature, the Times- proposes the revision of the Angli-.Iap- anese alliance. Although nothing dpfinite is yet obtainable, Japan has a perfect right to refuse to act in accordance with the treaty of alliance, if the proposed arbitration neutralises England in case a war between Japan and America. If the protection Japan derives from the alliance in case of war Is to be taken away, what remains? Yosobaro Takekoshl, one of the leading Selyukal members, writing In the Nippon, says that there must be many Japanese whose anticipation of the consequences of the Anglo- American treaty has hit the mark when they read the views expressed by the Times. After saying that Japan has never truly looked up to England for assistance In case of war with America, Mr. Takekoshl says the new treaty between Great Britain and America will prove an agent to weaken the Anglo-Japanese alliance, and should be food for contemplation for the Japanese people. Although, says he, America has failed in the attempt at the neutralization of Manchurian railways, she achieved a signal success in floating the loan and stipulating the arbitration treaty. Indeed, she has admirably accomplished the isolation of Japan. ROYAL VISIT TO INDIA Arrangements in Connection Witli Delhi Durbar anil Programme ut. Itoiiilmy in England I talked with many of alliance. The subsequent develop The Journal (twice a week), only $2.00 a year. It Is officially announced that the king and queen will reside on board ship during their stay in Bombay and that their programme will be: Formal reception in Bombay and a drive through the city on December 2; luncheon at Government House on December 3; visit to Blephanta Caves on December 4; and school- children's function on December 6, on the night of their majestices' departure for Delhi. It has been defintely settled that there will be no elephant procession at the Delhi Durbar. The prospectus has been Issued of a point-to-point race meeting leu- at' fleers of the civil and military ser vices, which Is to be held at Delhi during the Coronation Durbar. The king and queen will present the cups for the events, of wbi.b there are five on the card. Neither betting nor totallsator will be allowed on the course, nor will lotteries be permitted. Intending visitors to the Durbar may naturally have some anxiety as to the means of locomotion in the large area covered by the various camps. People who can afford the luxury of motor cars will not trouble themselves In the matter, bul there will be hundreds of others to whom the expense of vehicles will be a esrious consideration. The railways under construction will, however, provide a ready means ol movement from point to point. To the north will be the "army camps" station In the middle of the Infantry divisions; while west of the review ground will be another station In the cavalry camp. In the area allotted to the provincial camps soutli eel' Azadpnr a third station will be provided. The central station of all —known as the "Kingsway"— will be on the Alipore road, and its position has been admirably chosen. The lines linking tlie points mentioned will be on the broad gauge, while a ssytem of circular light railways will give other connections. Visitors will find all these lines a great convenience and the prices charged for tickets will be kept low. The highest rate of charges for visitors to the Durbar is $40 per day, with a minimum of twenty days' contract. The applications are already sufficiently numerous to fully justify the fixing of tlie rate by Ihe Durbar committee, and more will probably be received. Visitors who pay their $40 per day, will get full value for their money, the arrangements made for them being complete In every way. They will be In buildings and not under canvas, and In matter of personal comfort they will beaa well of as the English officials who are the guests of the government. WATER NOTICE.

HIGHER EDUCATION Anglican Synod Approves of Move for Affiliation With Provincial University. Report ol the Bishops on the Subject Is Endoirsed by Diocese The Anglican Synod, at its meeting here this week, heartily endorsed the proposal of the bishops of the province with respect to higher education. This provided that the Church should provide for a theological college in affiliation with the provincial university, to be built by the government. Another course of action endorsed by the synod was with respect to the formation of an ecclesiastical province. It was resolved that in the event of an ecclesiastical province being formed in British Columbia, this synod recommends that in the constitution of the proposed provincial synod, while provision should be made for two houses, the bishops constituting the upper house, and the clergy and laity the lower house, both houses should as a rule sit together, though each house should vote separately, the exception to the rule being when the upper house intimates its wish to sit separately. In this connection it was resolved also to recommend that in case the ecclesiastical province were formed the title of arrhibshop should not be assumed until at least five bishoprics had been formed. o NEW OLD XEWS Interesting Story of Klondike Dis- covei*}* Received by Paper Afte rLong Delay The newest bit of old news probably that ever reached a newspaper office was received by a Seattle newspaper office last week. The "news" in question was received in a letter sent to the paper from the first settlement on the Yukon River, early in the spring of 1897, and reported in detail the discovery of the Klondike gold fields. » The correspondent himself was a prospector in the expedition that first saw gold in the Yukon and Its tributaries, and entrusted the news letter to a river boatman who was bound down the river to the pre* eat city of Nome, The boatman was to deliver the letters to Hie steamship Northwestern, due to land at Nome Camp late In the fall. The boatman never reached Nome, but was taken ill 400 miles from the mouth of the Yukon and died. Before becoming too ill he cached his gold pouch, letters and other personal effects, all sealed in a two quart fruit jar in the earth or floor of a trapper's log cabin in which he died. Last spring prospectors stumbled on to his log cabin, and seeing the top of a fruit can sticking up out of the ground, dug it up and found the letters, gold and valuables. The news letters, yellow from their underground sleep of years, were forwarded by registered mail to the Seattle paper and reached there last week. The letters, had they reached Seattle when due, would have given the paper a chance to "scoop" its rivals. The letters will be preserved. The contents will go into a special edition planned by the paper for a future date. SPORTS CAN'T CLAIM TITLE Billy Papke, weighing 165 pounds, in the "pink" of condition and sign- in ghimself "champion middleweight of the world," is out with a challenge to all contenders. Nothing could be more ridiculous, according to Ad Wolgast. "In the first place Papke isn't and never again will be a real middleweight," said tht champion. "He has not taken care of himself any too well, and can't even make 160 now without hurting himself. He is getting a little too old to reduce too much, and It hurts an old man to take off fat. "Papke, it seems to me, is really a fighter without a class In which to fight. He can t go into the light- heavyweight division because he hasn't the strength, and he can't fight middlewelghts, if they Insist on his making the legitimate weight. "There is at least one man who can beat him if he gets down to the legitimate 158, and that man is Frank Klaus. Klaus is the best middleweight in the ring today by all odds. He can easily make the weight; in fact, he is always a little below the limit. Then, too, he has the speed, something which Papke can't boast of now that he has taken on weight. "Klaus and Papke met once in a six round affair in Pittsburg. The fight was of the no-decision order, but fro mthose at the ringside I heard later that Klaus really had a shade on the 'Illinois Thunderbolt' in clverness. "What right Papke had to the title any more than the rest of them, I can't see. He claims that because he has defeated contenders in America, England and Australia he is entitled to the honor, but he is silent when the defeat he suffered at the hands of Johnny Thompson is thrown into nis face. WRESTLING CHAMPIONS George Hackenschmidt, the Russian wrestler, who is matched to meet Champion Frank Gotch in Chicago on Labor Day, has made elaborate preparations to keep up his training. In a letter to his manager, Jack Curley, Hackenschmidt outlined his plans. He will sail from Southampton for the United States August 9, and will bring with him ten cases of a special mineral water obtained in France. In the Hackenschmidt party will be Dr. F. B. Roller, chief trainer; Johann Koch, German athlete; Masseur Coleman, and a German chef who will prepare all the food. At New. York the wrestler will pick up Tom Jenkins, who will accompany him to Cnicago.
