The oil prospects of Graham Island promise to be one of the lead- iug attractions In the north this coming sumemr. The outside hat " u awakened to U.e fact that In*, show!] gs one the west coast of tilt i.-l i:;-; are such cs to warrant th'6 fullest investigations so that the Ci/n'i g of the spring will, it is le'.t see a decided rush among those whe represent capital who will seek investment there. The work that is now in progress under the 13. C. Oilfields is attract ing attention and there have been many sent to the spot quietly t& investigate for other interests, which are following the development verj carefully. Under various guises men have gone over to the location and returned. No one knows who they represent or to whom they are reporting, but it is evident now that there is a very decided interest awakened. J. W. Coovert, of Portland, Ore., Mr. Doyle, and Mr. Thorpe, with Mr. Thorne, also of Portland, went over to Masset with the intention of going to the oil fields, but upon arrival there they received the news that the launch which '.ook Mr. Slater and party over had been probab'y wrecked, which up set their plans. They accordingly returned to Pr.nce Rupert where thev await developments before proceeding 0:1 L'mir wr.v. vViiiie hit] Coo.ert and his party absolutely refuse to discuss their mission or the interests behind them, it is known, as was announced in the Journal a few days ago, that they are looking into the situation for large interests. It is In fact reported that Mackenzie & Mann are behind them, and that (hey seek exact information as to the prospects there for those magnates who seem to be ready to invest in any good proposition on this coast. The information which is in possession of those men is said to be that the formation is the correct one for ihe finding of oil and that there is little or no likelihood but what the oil will be found in quantity and of a very superior quality. A. recent arrival from the oil drilling operations who reached the city today says that when he left the drill was down 9 00 feet that the formation was perfect for oil, and that oil in limited quantity was rising to the surface. There was, moreover, an abundance of gas which gave an excellent promise as to the oil. The gas is reported to be in such quantity that it is the intention of those engaged there to drive their machinery for drilling by burning the gas. The interest in uraham Island's oil deposits is only beginning. Before the summer is well advanced it is highly probable that more represenla tives of capital will be seeking that location to investigate than will be found in any other line of investment in the nortli, which is certainly a strong prophesy. It is known, however, that the oil prospects are now known to a very large number on Uie outside. Experts in that line have got exact information on the subject and further facts are being sought on the ground. Provincial Officer Godson returned from Masset yesterday by the Prince John. PANIC THREATENED Fire in Eaton's Store in Toronto Was Attended With Serious Danger. Police Maintained Order And Prevented Any Loss Through the Stampede of Crowd Toronto, Feb. 10.—-A fire caused by the stub of a cigar in the basement of Eaton's department store, threatened a panic for sime time today. The store was crowded at the time. By the aid of the police and others, order was maintained and the fire subdued. FOR NEW CANNERY Indians of Masset Have Left for Big Works to b. Established,' Fishing Will Be Carried on tlie Largest Scale Vet Attempted in the Province HORRIGAN CONTRACTS Engineer Will Report on the Matter Before Council Will Consider it The city council met yesterday afternoon for the purpose of consulting with .1. Loren McLaren to see If some settlement could not be reached in the Horrigan contracts. A basis of settlement was presented by Mr, McLaren, but In view of the fact that the engineer had not seen this before, and wus not able off hand to give a decision on the different points, it was agreed to lay the whole matter over until the engineer had prepared a report on the subject. Ruck From Masset Mr. Sandals, manager of tlie Kelly-Douglas company here, returned from Masset after a flying trip there on business. He reports that there Is a good amount of business apparent in that centre. Development work in coal and timber is having the effect of building up quite a local trade. (Special Correspondence) Masset, reb. 9.—The steamer Claxton arrived at Masset a few days ago and took the Indians of the Masset band to Virago sound, where work was immediately commenced on the clearing of ground and cutting idling for a new wharf. The cannery will he erected near the entrance to the Sound and work will be proceeded with rapidly, in preparation for die spring salmon fishing, which begins In May. The cannery will be one of the largest In the province, and a number of other buildings, for tho fishermen, will be placed on the adjacent ground. Il Is the intent inn to engage In deep sen fishing In llncato Straits and to fish In the numerous rivers on Graham Island. o CONVICT IS SHOT While Making Effort to Escape Inmate of Penitentiary is Eired on by Guards. Prisoner Was Working In Conjunction With Outside Gang— He Will Recover LOSS OF LIFE OFF QUEEN CHARLOTTES Mr. Slater the Oil Expert and His Party Including Henry Edenshaw of Masset May Have' Lost their Lives off the West Coast of Graham Island. It is feared that (here lias been a serious loss of life on the west coast of Graham Island, and that seven men may have met deatii as a result of the swamping of a launch and a loaded schooner. On January 21, Mr. Slater, the expert oil driller employed by the B. C. Oil Fields, accompanied by three members of his party, Messrs. McLaren, Stake and anotner, and by four Indians, including Henry Edenshaw, left .Masset for Otard Bay with supplies for the drilling camp. The stores were loaded for the most part in the schooner King George. Henry Edensbaw's launch Josephine, with Mr. Edenshaw, left with the schooner in tow. A crew of three other Indians accompanied Mr. Edenshaw. The schooner had about four tons of supplies to be used at the oil well. The next day the oil drillers near Tiahn Point saw two small craft passing south with a high wind blowing. It is presumed that these were the launch and the schooner. The schooner was sailing under its own sail and going at a lively rate. Those who know tlie situation there say it would be unsafe for them to have tried to have entered Otard Bay under those conditions as they would run the risk of being dashed on the rocks, the bay being exposed. ... _.. A few days later Mr. Livingstone left the oil drlling camp for Mas- set, coming overland. He expected to find the Edenshaw launch back in Masset before he arrived, but nothing bad been heard of Ihe craft after Its departure, and anxiety was aroused for the safety of the whole party. The launch could make the trip within about twenty-sever or twenty-eight hours. Upon the matter being reported to the local government office, Mr. McMullin, the government agent, and Chief Owen, of the provincial police, got busy at once in devising means for a search being made. An attempt was made to get into communication wills the William .lolliffe the fishery protection steamer, but she had gone south. The Quadra also was on Its way soutli. The provincial authorities engaged the Phippen, of tlie Cold Storage Company, but later the owners cancelled the engagement. An attempt was made to get the Prince John, but this would necessitate communication with the G.T.P. authorities in the south. Messrs. McMullin and Owen have communicated with the authorities in Victoria, and hope to have some ves- vel of the Dominion government, either the Quadra or the Leebro, which is supposed to be on her way here, make a trip to the west coast in order to search for the missing men if they are marooned on any island. An effort is being made, also, to have the Prince John make a trip about the outside route after she calls at Jedway. It is felt that under the weather conditions the small vessels may have avojdecl trying_to run jnto the baysA until some safe one life Rennell .sound was reached, and that they | may be safe, but oul of reach. If the vessels were not wrecked there | is a plentiful supply of provisions on board which will keep the men supplied for a long time until help reaches them. LAND DIFFICULTIES COLD IN THE EAST A. S.

Sunday, February 11, 1911 WELL REPRESENTED In William .Manson (he Skeena districi has a worthy representative. To all those who know hini the fact is patenl thai during the sessions of the legislature the member for this district enjoys no rest. He is ever alert to the needs of the district he represents, and with a knowledge of bow to gain his ends he takes pains to bring the needs of t.lie various parts of the riding prominently before the members of i he Government. A recent visitor to Victoria, who had occasion to watch Mr. Malison's course (here, says that it is wonderful the amount that lie is doing to advance the interests of the Skeena districl. He is never idle, but is constantly busy in the departments on work which does not show, perhaps, on the outside so much but is followed by results. He says it is marvellous the amount lie is getting for his district to the disgust of some of the other members who adopt more spectacular methods. This is characteristic of Mr. Man- son as all his friends know. He is a conscientious and untiring worker for tlie districl he represents. He is, moreover, known to work with an absolutely honest purpose and without considering his own self- interests in the least, lie is a model member for any constituency, and tlie Skeena may well feel proud of him. AN OIL ROOM Much as it is to be hoped that it may not come, there is every indication that n veritable boom in the oil business is likely to follow with the opening of spring on the fields located on Graham Island. Evidences point to the fact thai the petroleum is likely to be found. If it is, nothing ran prevent one of the greatest booms in thai pari of the province thai has even been seen in British Columbia. Indications point to the fact that there may have been a most unfortunate marine accident in connection wiih tlie transport of supplies there. It is to be hoped that the men who took their lives in their hands in the effort to reach the spot where the oil is being sought, may have only been carried out of their course and may be rescued. In the development of a new country like this with iis wealth stored away in inaccessible places, men musl take chances with their lives. It is the story of the advance of civilization and progress. Were there not intrepid men who will take the risk there would be no progress. It so happens that In many cases the most daring and the best type of human beings musl sacrifice (heir lives for the benefits which others will reap. *********************************************************************************************************** NAVAL SUPREMACY Win-ion Churchill Suva tin- I'eopl of (ileal lli'ltuin Need Have Xo Pear London, Feb. l».

He pointed out how a few years ago there were 52 poaching vessels, which pilfered two million dollars' worth. .Vow there are over -'mi poaching vessels, which steal 05,000,000 pounds of halibut yearly. The present prelection vessels are inadequate, being able to steam only 8 to Hi knots an hour, while the poachers are much faster, and are equipped witli wireless telegraphy. Three Vessels He advocated the building of three up-to-date steamers, able to steam from 15 to IS knots and equipped witli wireless telegraphy. These vessels should not be under the control of the naval service department. They could drive poachers from the bays where they catch bait and clean their catch. .Mr. Barnard commended on the open way in which the poaching busi ness is conducted from Seattle, and on the humiliating influence on the province and the Dominion of the daring way in which the American poachers defy the Canadian regulations. He mentioned a case where a vessel was seized and was released on the payment of a »50 fine because the owner was a friend of the Laurier government. He held that the new protection cruisers should be built on the Pacific coast. Mr. Stevens urged the construction of three vessels of the same type as the poachers, about 100 tons and 15 knots speed. These should be under the fisheries department, the Canadian navy being a joke. lie went on to refer to the substitution of Orientals for white men in the fishing industry and the far-reaching effects on the industry generally. Mr. Stevens also drew attention to the farming out of licenses and to the wasteful and inhuman methods pursued in the whaling trade. .Mr. .Shepherd dwelt upon the scandalous traffic in licenses. Dr. Thompson of Yukon, spoke of the poaching in Hecate straits. Minister's Promises Hon. Mr. llazen, after the usual compliments to the members who had opened the subject, said that their statements had been correct. The protection within the three-mile limit had been inadequate, and the poaching fleet was numbered in the hundreds. He then outlined at some length the measures which the government is taking to meet this situation. The protection vessels are obsolete and useless, and the Kestrel and Restless are to be sold. Three vessels are to be procured, two for protection and one for patrol service. Appropriations of $275,- iiuo for (he Tormer and $75,00 for the latter are in the estimates. Th.2 now vessels may be ready this year. One of the protection vessels may be purchased and Ihe others will be built. Tlie building will be done on tlie coast if possible. Will Charter Pending (heir completion two suitable vessels will be chartered at $liiii per day. An appropriation of $511,01111 is provided for this purpose. Mr, llazen declined i>> take die proteel inn Bert ice out of t lie naval service department. The minister was tiie same in any event, lie observed, anil there were reasons of departmenl convenience. Whales, i lie minister observed, arc caught outside Hie three-mile limit, and so Hie regulation of their fishery is a mailer of International regulation. Canada and the United Slates are the two countries most concerned in this. Captain Bernler had drawn the attention of the department of slaughter of whales in the Arctic, and had recommended the prohibition of killing for a term of years. Mr. llazen had instructed his officials to take preliminary steps to procure the formulation of international regulations for the preservation of the animals. Fishing Licenses Turning to licenses, Mr. llazen said dial (here was reason for strong criticism of the manner in which (he The Railway Commission having ruled that the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway must construct and maintain their Depot on District Lot No. 882, which is New Hazelton We are now in a position to offer the public first hand property in the REAL HAZELTON on D L 882 at reasonable prices and easy payments.

The habit had been to grant these licenses not to fishermen, but to persons engaged in mercantile pursuits, who bad no intention of fishing themselves. These men farmed the licenses out, obtaining as much as $1,!>00 for them. They did nothing for this tax they levied on the fishermen. No licenses have been issued this year, censes have been issued this year, and none will be to persons not actually engaged in the industry. He bad asked the British Columbia government to co-operate and also had asked Fisheries Officer Cunningham to come to Ottawa to consult with the provincial officers as to the license system. The practice of putting licenses up to auction might be tried. There was another matter with regard to which the Laurier government had not seemed to realize the situation. That was the way In which the salmon fisheries were administered purely in the interests of the canneries. The canneries got licenses and the individual fishermen who were prohibited from exporting ffesh fish, were at the mercy of the canneries and could pursue their calling only as the latter chose. A man might catch a good haul and reaching the cannery find a notice that it would only take so many fish per man. He could not sell his surplus fish, he could not throw them into the water, he was not allowed even to use them as fertilizers of the soil. These regulations seemed to have been made years ago, when the situation was not understood. They favored a few rich men; they were a scandal. Last Saturday he had repealed those regulations, and now Columbia fishermen could send their fresh fish abroad. Mr. Sinclair asked about oriental labor and the bonding privilege. Mr llazen replied that he did not wish to speak of the Japanese situation until lie could study it and so speak more authoritatively, h was very as domestic reasons.

PRINCE RUPERT JOURNAL LORD ROSEBERY ON CRITICAL SITUATION The Foreign Situation of Great Britain Made Subject of Recent Speech by Well Known Statesman-He Looks Upon Conditions as Grave Lord Rosebery, who has stood aloof for so many years from the mention of foreign politics on public platforms, made a significant speech at Glasgow on the critical relations now existing between Great Britain and other powers. The speech was not, and was not intended to be, a criticism of the policy which Sir Edward Grey lias pursued at the For- ■eign Office, but it was full of grave warnings regarding tlie complications into which our ententes and understandings made with foreign powers during the last decade may lear us. "We are," said Lord Rosebery, "for good or evil, involved in the Continental system . . . which may at any time bring us into contact with armies numbering millions. . . . We have entered into liabilities which at any moment may lead us into a great Armageddon, and which will be greater than any war which we have known since the fall of Napoleon." The following are the main points of Lord Rosebery's speech:— Lord Hardane the other night made some rather despondent remarks on the result of his extraordinary remarks on behalf of the defence force he is endeavoring to create. I can well understand that after his expenditure of labor by day and by night to try to promote the interests of his Territorial force and to try to increase the military defence forces of the country, it must come as something of a disappointment that they should still fall very far short of his ideal. I think Lord Haldane has not been altogether well seconded in his efforts. I think that the enthusiasm should at least begin with his colleagues, and that he should have had more hearty support from the government than he seems to have received. Alore especially would tiie bounty of the Chancellor of the Exchequer be extremely welcome in that direction. You have had a great protagonist, in the shape of Lord Roberts, who adopts a very different view, and in all military questions the opinoin of a veteran like Lord Roberts must carry such enormous weight as to have importance for civilians who, like myself, impartial from ignorance, are faced by the hostile opinion and criticism of Lord Roberts. There has been difficulty, then, in laying the foundations of the necessary faith in view of the opposition of many high authorities, among whom 1 reckon the chief as Lord Roberts, but further faith must be based on knowledge as to the main questions relating to the defence forces of the country. Never forget this —armaments must depend on your policy, and it is extremely difficult for us who know nothing about the foreign policy except what we see in the newspapers to form any accurate judgment as to what that foreign policy may be. We are, for good or evil, involved in the Continental system, Ihe merits of which 1 do not. pretend lo judge, because I do nol know enough about It, but which, at any rate, may at any time bring us Into contact with armies numbering! millions, and our own forces would hardly be counted in such a war lis I hey stand at present. We know little, bul al any rale, we know this—al least I think we do know it—that during last summer we were on the verge of a great conflict in Europe in which we were to take a foremost part. I do not OUR BEST LEADER Rexall Glycerine Soap 15c the Cake. You will come back for more e-mim REMEMBER THE GUARANTEE C.ll ORME, The Pioneer Druggist Telephone 82 The Q&xaJUL Store know myself exactly on what grounds—the grounds do not matter so long as the fact and the liability were there. We have entered into liabilities the nature and extent of which I for one do not know, but which are uo less tsringent or binding because they are unwritten, and which at any moment, so far, at any rate, as I can discern the signs of the times, may lead us into a great Armageddon which has sometimes ravaged Europe, and which will be greater than any war which we have known since the fall of Napoleon. I am not uttering surmises to you, gentlemen. I am not pretending to know any more than any other read- ed of the newspapers, but this, at any rate, all readers of the newspapers must know, that we have certain vague liabilities connected with ententes. I would rather they were definite alliances, because, after all, alliances limit any define. We have certain vague obligations, the nature of which I do not profess to know, but, at any rate, in regard to which anyone can predicate that they involve the immediate liability of a gigantic war in certain circumstances which are by no means unlikely to occur. I do not say this to make your flesh creep. There is no object in that. I have a much more serious and definite purpose in view. It is to try to raise the enthusiasm and the sense of public duty of those whom I am addressing and those who may read my words outside these wells. I think this position of liability—of unwritten and vague liability, an honorable liability, if you may so speak of it—is one of extreme danger, and one for which we cannot be sufficiently prepared. What 1 complain of in our present Imperial policy is this—I am not censuring or accusing any M.P. Out present foreign secretary is a gentleman for whom I have the most unbounded affection and respect. 1 am not accusing or criticising any man. I am only putting before you this simple thesis: That if you have deliberately, as I understand you have, adopted a policy of what is perhaps unlimited liability on the Continent, you must be prepared at the proper time to make good that liability. Sly friend, Lord Haldane, uttered the other night a sentence which I confess made me more uncomfortable than any utterances which he has yet made on the subject. He said there might come a time when that line of the Territorials would be all that stood between us and our homes and hearths. Well, we ignorant people are always told that that contingency is impossible, that we have an impregnable fleet which stands between us and any possible invasion. I confess when I see it is said by the minister for war, who Is so firm a believer in the Territorial army, that there will be nothing but the line of Territorials at a possible day standing between us and the occupation of our homes and hearths I am bound to say that that makes one think very gravely of what our situation may be.

WOODS.. 6-7 City Clerk. formance of Ralph Rose the giant California shot putter, who broke the world's record, and the running of Mel Shepard, in recent indoor games. The United States will not be represented, officially, In at least one event—the women's swimming- and diving competition. Secretary Sullivan has declared that the A. A. U. will not take women competitors abroad. In many quarters this is regarded with disapproval, for there are speedy women swimmers in this country who might win points for the team. Mrs. Teries Desch of San Francisco has declared her intention to go to Stockholm on her own initiative. England is making strenuous efforts to Find a winning form, and Ihe discussion over "England's athletic debility" has been almost a national cry. The past year was disastrous for the tight little athlels, who were defeated by continental and colonial athletes. Because Secretary Sullivan has requested the government to station a battleship at Stockholm during the Olympic games, England thinks it only Tit that the English government should act as host to the English team. Sporting Life says: "The value of supporting spectators in the stands cannot be overestimated, as was proven in London in 1908 when thousands of Americans cheered members of the American team in every event." Japan will challenge the supremacy of the world at Stockholm. Trials are being conducted to select the best team for the games. The winner of a Marathon over the full Olympic course, 26 miles, 385 yards, was run in 11 minutes faster time the best previous world's record. Germany has a vaulter, R. Pas- man, who does 12 feet regularly. Critics say he will clear 13 feet before the next summer. If this is true, Pasman is the best vaulter in the world, and ought to win an event which has heretofore looked easy for an American. Pasman is also a "lepper," having beaten six feet in the running high, and tak ing second place In the broad jump competition to the same day. S. S.
