CROWNED HEADS GATH- ERING FOR WEDDING There Will Be Three Emperors In Berlin For Marriage Ceremonies of Princess Victoria Louise and Prince Ernest August of Cumberland--King George and Oueen Nary Have Arrived In German Capital for the Event Berlin, May 22.—King George and Queen Mary have reached here for the Royal wedding Saturday of Princess Victoria Louise, .only daughter of the German Emperor, and Prince Ernest August of Cumberland. Dirigible balloons, flying the British colors accompanied the Royal train from Rathenow. The Emperor of Russia has also arrived. The gathering of the three Emperors of Germany, Russia and the British Dominions makes the German capital the centre of European interesA at this time. Striking prominence is given to the Emperor's desire to make the occasion contribute to a betterment of the relations' between Great Britain and the German Empire. The German newspapers are giving much attention to the political importance which the wedding may have in bringing about a manifestation of friendship between Germany and Great Britain, but they have little to say concerning a similar manifestation toward Russia. VISITED SCENE OF GRANBY ACCIDENT W. MARCHANT, INSPECTOR OF CUSTOMS, TELLS OF WAY FLOOD SWEPT DAM AWAx. It Is Difficult to Conceive of the Power That the Water Had in Destroying the Works. • William Marchant, inspector*, of customs, who is in the city at present, was a visitor to Granby by the Venture on her last trip and saw the devastation that was wrought by the bursting of the dam at that place. Hemade it a point to visit the scene and yesterday described the havoc that was done by the calamity. The dam was about two miles from the waterfront and was in course of construction. There was originally a deep canyon at the point where the dam was being constructed and the company by blasting the side of the mountain alongside of the cut were able to fill the canyon with the debris. Great rock blocks weighing tons were thrown into the cut and made the foundation for the dam. The men were at work continuing the fill and making the dam water tight, never for an instant thinking that there was any danger of the washing away of the heavy material thsft had been deposited there. The dam was about one hundred feet in height, he says, which held back a tremendous body of water. When the obstruction gave way the fill was carried out completely, leaving a clear way for the whole depth for the water to rush down the valley. The body of the man who was drowned was not recovered. The Japanese woman who lost her life was living with her husband on a float in the bay. When the debris was carried down she was warned by those on shore that there was danger and advised to stay on the float. She, however, attempted to cross over the plank way to the land and got caught by timbers that came down and was crushed to death. She had been married to one of her countrymen only about a year ago. The float went out Into the bay, but was not damaged, and had she remained on board it her life would in all probability have been spared. Dr. Large, the coroner who went to the scene, did not hold an inquest. He inquired into the circumstances and came to the conclusion that there was no necessity to hold an inquest. — o *************** * EMPIRE DAY CELEBRATION. * * London, May 22.—One hun- * * dred thousand Bchool children * * will celebrate Empire Day here * * Saturday.

Trampled to Death. There arrived in the city yesterday afternoon E. A. Busby, of Ottawa, the chief inspector of customs for the Dominion. He will spend a few days here before returning to the south. Mr. Busby is well known on this coast, where for years he filled the post of inspector. His work in that capacity was of such a character that he was later promoted to the important post of chief inspector with headquarters in Ottawa. In this new position he will not be as frequent a visitor to this city as he was in the earlier days of the city. The visit at this tilne is made In view of the fact that the chief inspector and the office at Ottawa as a whole recognizes that this port will in a very few months become one of the most important ones in the Dominion. It will, he said, when interviewed yesterday afterrioon, become at once one of the great ports of the Pacific Coast. There will be need of all kinds of preparation for that time and with that in view he has come to make a thorough inspection of the office and to arrange for the necessary equipping of the office to fulfill the duties that will be orced upon the staff. Mr. Busby will make a thorough inspection at this time and before he leaves will be in a position to suggest any changes that may be necessary in Vancouver, May 22.—A man believed to be John Witty, aged 60 years, was killed by being run over and trampled by a run-away horse today, on a down-town street. C. P. Hickman, of the Fisheries Department at Victoria, is in the North on business connected with his department. the office equipment. Mr. Busby has ever had great faith in this city and this faith is not in the least lessened by his present visit. He sees in Prince Rupert the opportunity for tremendous development and this he realizes must come very shortly. If it had not been for this he says he would not have taken the time to come to Prince Rupert at this. time. There Is so much work in connection with his office that he thought it would be Impossible to get here. Realizing, however, what there was in store here and the fact that the time was so near when development on a tremendous scale was to come to the city he decided that he would have to come and lay plans for the immediate future so that the service might not suffer when the time of expansion came. In this he was backed up by the energetic member for the district, H, S. Clements, who Mr. Busby says is always looking after his constituency, and allows no opportunity to pass to bring its claims to the attention of his department and every other depart- I ment at Ottawa. Mr. Clements waB j very anxious that he should come here and see that everything was done to put the office in the very best of shape for the comiug of the railway with its immense trade to the port.

RUMOR OF PACIFIC NAVAL STATION Vancouver Is Credited With Being the Base for British Warships To Be Stationed on This Coast -Vast Sums It Is Represented Will Be Spent There in Connection With the Scheme -Prince Rupert Is More Likely to Become the Strategic Headquarters For Such A Fleet Than Vancouver Is-The Best Advantages Are All Found To Be Existing at the Port of Prince Rupert TO BVILd TRAIL TO PEASE LAKE CHARLES CULLIN LEFT YESTER- DAY WITH PARTY TO MAKE START ON THE WORK. - I From Telegraph Creek to Dense- Luke Mining Area 75 Miles of Wagon Road Will Be Constructed. Vancouver, May 22.—According to a special despatch to The Province from London, Vancouver is destined to become Canada's strategic naval base on the Pacific, ihe Imperial and British warships will mako this port their headquarters for re-fittiug, says the despatch. To complete a chain of great Imperial naval stations, Vancouver has been chosen to take rank with Sydney, Hongkong, Queenstown, Malta and Gibraltar. Vast sums will be spent by the British Admiralty for the purpose of preparing the port for the uses to which it is to be put in this connection. The rumor that the port of Vancouver is to become a naval base for the Pacific Coast savors much of an attempt on the part of the two southern cltieB of Vancouver and Victoria to get ahead of one another In the matter of advertising. The city of Victoria lias had the advertising of late in consequence of the fact that It was announced that there would be a drydock constructed In that city. This had to be offset by the neighboring city, and accordingly the rumor of a naval base is raised. The story seems highly Improbable. If Esquimau is to have the great graving dock, the chances are that the naval base would be close to it. If the naval headquarters fs to be at Vancouver the drydock will in all likelihood be there. It is highly probable that there Is a great deal of fiction in connection with the whole matter. Prince Rupert will in a year or two have to be reckoned with in the matter of the defences of this coast. Strategically, the Grand Trunk Pacific is the line of all others in the Dominion that is calculated to play a part in the defences of the Empire by coupling up the east with the west. It is the natural line along which would be transferred the drafts that might be required to be conveyed from the British Isles to the Far East, or vice versa. The Grand Trunk Pacific will have a line that in the eastern part is Government owned and capable in case of Imperial trouble of being converted Into a carrying line for all supplies and men. Tn addition to this, the Grand Trunk Pacific is much farther removed from the boundary line of the Dominion and so is considered by those best versed In matters of this kind superior to any other line as an all-red route in case of hostilities. Then again, when it comes to the question of the terminus Itself, the railway line proceeds directly to tho city of Prince Rupert, which can be easily protected from eve -y side within British territory. In the case of the southern cities this is not possible. The entrance to either Victoria or Vancouver is for a long distance exposed on the one side to the United States territory. Prince Rupert has a dock that is of sufficient size as now designed lo take care of warships of no mean magnitude. It is capable, moreover, of being materially enlarged without tremendous trouble or expense. This dock that Is being put in hero is being carried out under plans that have been approved by the British Admiralty, and along lines that will make it capable of being used In times of need by the Admiralty. There is one thing certain, that the Admiralty insisted upon the dock being placed on the inside of the harbor in order that it might be the more easily protected In the case of need. Under all these circumstances there is more foundation, one is satisfied in stating, for the belief that the Admiralty look with more favor upon a naval base here than In Vancouver. It is a little early for the carrying out of any very large schemes In this connection here. It Is safe to promise that there will not be many years pass round until there is a naval base in Prince Rupert. It may not be the only one on the Pacific Coast. but it will In all likelihood be at I least of equal rank will; the b;:sc| that may he located :i; any ol ■'..-; i other points on Hie Coast, Strategically, the port of Prince Rupert and the Grand Trunk Pacific as a railway arc so well placed that there is nothing that can pro- vent the line and the port playing i a most Important part In the defence! of the Empire when the period for the decentralization of the British naval forces comes into effect. That will come when the line of railway Is completed and there Is being built up a trade with the world that will bring this port into Importance as a factor In the routes that arc established by the merchant shipping of the Empire. These routes must be maintained and the base of the railways must be kept safe from molestation. The time Is coming when Prince Rupert will bo one of the most important ports that there is In tho Empire and then fortifications and naval depots will be established here. It Is safe to promise that in ten years' time thero will not be lacking here anything In the line of naval bases that Is to be found In either of tho southern cities of the province. There went north last evening on the Princess May, Charles Cullin, who is going to Telegraph Creek to begin the construction of a wagon road foi- the Provincial Government from that point to the Dease Lake minin;, section.

According to the alarmist reports that are being received, the Liberals will have to shorten the Revelstoke ,.Convention considerably if they are to get ready for the election that it is pretended is in sight. Eight weeks is placed as the time that will intervene before this event. Rather unfortunately for the Conservatives, we fear that there will be much longer time than that intervene before the electorate will be given the opportunity of dealing out to the Liberal Opposition its reward for the way in which the public business of the country has been held up. Elections are not to be sprung upon the electorate without deliberation and without good reason. They have a tendency to upset business In a country, and for that reason it is only to be expected that Mr, Borden will allow a reasonable time to lapse before bringing on an election. If tho appeal to the electorate were to be taken in eight weeks, however, as the Liberals pretend to expect, it would be a sad day for the Liberal party. The Government has all to gain by such an appeal. The Opposition, according to all reports, has developed all kinds of trouble within its ranks in the handling of the Naval Bill. An appeal to the country would mean the extermination of the Liberals to a great extent. The ordinary business man, who is more concerned in the material progress of the country and in sane administration of affairs than he is In political turmoil, may rest assured that he is not in great danger of having an election forced upon him in eight weeks. the House's proposals. This is one of the things that we do not do better than our neighbors. "The chief changes in the Canadian tariff are those necessitated by fhe agreement for reciprocity between tho Dominion and the British West Indies. Sugar is the most important article, both in the Canadian tariff revision and in ours. "We are competitive buyers of West Indian sugar when the conditions are equal, and we are competitive- sellers of goods to the West Indies under the same conditions of equality." SOME PISH DISHES. Plaice a L'ltalienne. Cover the bottom of a fireproof dish with some boiled rice well moistened with white sauce. Lay the fil lets of plaice on this with a seasoning of pepper and salt. Put another layer of rice on the top with plenty of sauce poured over it. Sprinkle with grated cheese, and bake in a moderate oven. Tomato sauce can be used instead of white sauce if preferred. Lobster Cutlets. One small lobster (or one tin of lobster) 1 oz. of butter, quarter of a pint of milk, 1 oz. of flour, juice of half a lemon, salt, pepper, cayenne, one tablespoonful of cream. Chop the lobster very fine. Cook the flour and butter (without discoloring) in a saucepan, add the milk and stir until it boils. To this add the lobster, lemon juice, cream, and seasoning. Mix thoroughly. Spread on a greased plate, and cut into eight triangular pieces, forming them into cutlets. Egg and breadcrumb them and fry a golden brown. Sole a L'lndiennc. Fry the soles in the usual way (lemon soles or fillets of plaice will answer equally well). The Indienne sauce is made of melted butter mixed with pickles and the liquor of piccalilli. Pour this round the fish, and garnish with chopped gherkins and capers. HEW OF UNITED STATES. The United States newspapers are commenting upon the Canadian way of doing business connected with the tariff. The New York Times says: "The Canadian budget speech by the finance minister, the Hon. W. T. White, has several points of exceptional Interest to the United States this year. Possibly the most striking point 1b the fact that, although there are important tariff changes, they became effective upon the day that the speech was made. There Is no prolonged period of trade discouragement, due rather to doubt as to what the changes will be than to the nature of the changes themselves. The Canadian system allows ■the hill to become effective law the day the proposal is made by a responsible ministry. "Thus the Canadian tariff revision, which was made'months after ours, and without preliminary months of campaigning, becomes law before ours.

Boil it gently for an hour, stirring occasionally, then pass through a sieve, remove all bones from the saucepan, and replace the stock, with a piece of butter the size of a walnut.

STEAMER WHILE MAKING LANDING AT PORT SIMPSON MET WITH AN ACCIDENT. Excursion on Saturday by the St. Andrew's Society Has Been Called Off in Conse- quence. In a rather peculiar accident that occurred at Port Simpson yesterday morning early, the Grand Trunk Pacific steamer Prince Albert met with an accident and went aground in the harbor. The accident happened about 4 o'clock in the morning. The vessel had approached the wharf at the old town, but there was no one there to take the line. The captain then swung out to approach the wharf a second time and apparently swung too far out, for he caught the peak of the vessel on the rock. There was a grinding noise heard on board and a little shock, and then a general scurrying to find out what was the matter. The vessel touched lightly, but at a falling tide, and In spite of all efforts she could not be got off. The passengers, and there were a great many on board at the time, were transferred to the Venture, which was on her way here, and reached port early yesterday morning. Provision has been made for the taking of the. passengers to the Queen Chariots by the Henriette of the Grand Trunk Pacific line that is now in port. The Albert is not believed to be much damaged and no water was taken. It is expected that at high tide she will be off and will uot be much the worse for the grounding. Captain McCoskrie, representing the customs department, left yesterday morning for the scene in order to examine the condition of the steamer. The St. Andrew's Society, that was to have held an excursion by the Prince Albert on May 24, has decided lo call off the excursion. Therfl was nothing else for them to do. The society tried to engage another steamer, even pressing for the Prince Rupert from the Grand Trunk Pacific, but could not secure one. It has, therefore, been necessary to call off the excursion, which would have been a decided success. SPORTS | BAYLEY AND BARRIEAU.

PRiNCE RUPBRT JOURNAL. 3BT IMPROVED WAYS ON INTERIOR RIVERS CAPTAIN JOHNSTON, IN CHARGE OF FOLEY, WELCH & STEWART BOATS, SPEAKS OF BETTER CONDITIONS. Getting Ready to Carry Supplies in the Direction of Kort George This Season by Boats. Captain Johnston, who has snaigt- of the steamboat department of the firm of Foley Bros. Welch it Stewart, general contractors for the construction of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, reached Fort George early in the week on a tour of inspection of the Fraser and Nechaco rivers, preparatory to the opening of navigation, says the Fort George Tribune of May 10. He was accompanied by Captain Shanuon, of the Foley Bros., Welch H Stewart steamer Conveyor, Captain Myers of the steamer Distributor, operated by the same company, and F. L. Freeman, who during last winter had charge of removing obstructions to navigation from the Fraser and Nechaco. The party travelled in a large motor launch from the Cache, and reported an adventurous trip. Above the mouth of the Big Salmon they found the river obstructed by ice- jams and were compelled to wait until they picked up a party of two or three men on a raft, absolutely out of provisions and in great danger of starvation. These they picked up1 and brought down in their launch. Owing to the delay and the additional mouths to feed, they were on very short, rations when they reached Fort George. At a point up Ihe Fraser the launch grounded on a bar, and in helping to float her Captain Shannon strained himself slightly. He spent a few days in the Foley Bros., Welch & Stewart camp here recuperating, while the other members of the party continued up the Nechaco. 'i'hey returned Wednesday night. Captain Johnston will spend a few days here before returning up the river. In conversation with The Tribune Captain Johnston stated that the Nechaco was in pretty good condition for navigation to a point four miles above Stoney Creek. During the past winter extensive work was done blasting out rocks and otherwise improving the channel, and this season navigation conditions should be distinctly better than last year. "I believe that the B.C. Express will be able to run right through to Mile 53 this season instead of only to the Grand Canyon," said Captain Johnston. "There are many who do not think this will be possible, but I think it can and will be done. Gis- combe Rapids have been well cleaned out and great improvements have been made in the Grand Canyon it- Kc'.f. Rocks have also Deen blasted out of the various rapids up the Nechaco." Captain Johnston stated that as soon as the water in the Fraser came up a little the Conveyor and Distributor would begin to carry supplies down to Fort George and along the Nechaco westward. Last year the operations of these vessels were restricted to the Fraser above the Grand Canyon. "There should be no trouble with METHODIST NAME DISTRICT OFFICER REV. J. E.

Two plucky Californlans, taking their provisions With them, and bound upon a 3500 mile voyage in an 18-foot canvas canoe, have left Seattle. The names of these adventurous voyagers are Arthur D. Simpson and Forest Clark and they hail from San Diego. Their trip will take them through the tortuous channels of Southeastern Alaska, down the Yukon River and by Behring Sea to Nome. One pair of paddles will be used to propel the craft, which will be fitted with a canvas cover to shed breaking seas, after the fashion of an Eskimo kyak. Simpson and Clark expect to reach Skagway, 1000 miles from Seattle, in three months' time. The itinerary will include stops at various points. The canoe and outfit will be portaged over the trail made famous in the days of '98. Water travel will be resumed at Bennett, where the canoe will be launched in the Yukon. This is the fifth largest river in the world and its waters flow northward at a speed varying from three to nine miles an hour. Travelling with this swift current, -the canoeists nope to cover the distance from Bennett to Nome in about six weeks, allowing time for a visit to the gold diggings of the Klondike, as well as stops at the Indian fishing villages en. route. From Nome the adventurers will probably come by sieamship to Seattle. CALL ON OR WRITE TO Harrison, Gamble & Co. THIRD AVENUE OPPOSITE POSTOFFICE lt«HMHKHtHS<K»*MHMH«HMH»(»« PRINCESS MAY HAD MANY.

'// GRANBY SUFFERS VERY HEAVY LOSS Dam Burst Carrying Away Old Power Station- Two Lives Lost- Had Accident Happened Few Minutes Later Entire Force on the Dam Would Have Been at Work and Had Lives Imperilled By Bursting of the Dam The mining and smelter centre on Observatory Inlet yesterday suffered a very severe loss in property, with two deaths resulting. This was caused by the bursting of the great dam that the company is building there to provide power for the smelter town and works that will be located there. The dam was nearing completion and the loss that comes to the company is a very unfortunate one, as it interferes with the plans that it had on foot. Two lives were lost, but by good - fortune the accident occurred at a time when there were practically none at work there. Had it happened about ten minutes later there would have been a full force at work and the loss of life could not help being very great. One of those that lost her life was a Japanese woman, who "lived close to the dam. The other one was an Austrian rockman, who was carried away by the floods. His body was found later. The entire dam was swept away, which will entail a lot of labor in replacing and it is feared will hold back the work at the place somewhat. The flood that swept down the valley carried everything with it in the way. Bridges that crossed the valley were swept down and will all have to be rebuilt. The work that was being carried out there was of concrete and supposed'to be of the most substantial character. From this dam there was to be developed the power that would operate the whole works. In the flood that ensued the old power station nearer the waterfront was swept away, which complicates the matter for the 'company somewhat. It is expected that work will be resumed at once on the rectifying of the injury that has been done by the flood. The loss is placed at 5100,000. There will he no alteration in the plans of the company, which is preparing for a great smelter at the place. The smelter site was not affected in the least by the accident that happened at the power plant.

A most enjoyable way to spend the holiday on the sandy beach, tf Estimated Volue of Two Hundred Tons of Supplies Loft Tete .laune Cache for Fort George. Ralph Johnston, head bookkeeper for H. E. Carleton & Co., railroad contractors, received a wire stating that fifteen scows had left Tete Jaune Cache for Fort George. The scows are loaded with provisions, coal and iron for the grading operations here, says the Fort George Tribune of May 3. The freight carried by this fleet will be in tbe neighborhood of two hundred tons. Several other scows left before these and are expected to arrive here shortly. If the water is at favorable stage the trip should be made in less than two weeks. The salary question with respect to the police magistrate of this city came up again in the city council last night on a report from the finance committee of the council to which it was referred at the last meeting. The report of the finance committee was that the question should be laid over for the meantime. It was pointed out in the report that in view of the attitude of the mayor on this subject it would be wise to allow the matter to stand over until he returns, to the city, when the matter could again be gone into. o ********** * * * * * * STRIKERS DENY REPORT. * PRINCE RUPI BE A GRAIN PORT Collingwood Schreiber the Dominion Government Engineer Has Great Faith In This City-He Expects To See A Lot of Wheat Go By the Way of Prince Rupert Harbor When the G. T. P. Railroad Is Connected Up Nanaimo, May 19.—The * union leaders here state that * the report that a million dollars * was offered them to call off the * strike is not true. * Esquimnlt Bonds. Esquimau has succeeded in making an early sale of its school bonds. The bonds amounted to $27,000, and they have been taken by the Bank of British North America at 93, carrying a 5 per cent. rate. Collingwood Schreiber, the Dominion Government engineer charged with the inspection of the work on the railway lines in the country, returned on Sunday night from a tour of inspection along the line of railway in company with B. B. Kelliher, chief engineer of the Grand Trunk Pacific; J. W. Stewart, of the contracting firm, and W. C. C. Me- han, general superintendent of the line, together with other officials of the department and the company. The engineering party left Monday ntorning for the south. They will proceed to Edmonton and from there proceed in and Inspect th-.j work that is in -progress from the eastern end of the line. They will proceed to the end of steel there, and then take boats and proceed to Fort George, going hack along the line of the route, where an Inspection of the operations that are in progress will be made by them. The visit that will be paid to Fort George will be the first one that Mr Schreiber has made to the central point. * Seen on his return from the interior on Sunday night, Mr. Schreiber appeared to be well pleased with all that he saw on the trip. The only objection that he had to offer was the standing one that he has, .and that is that the work is not proceeding as fast as he would like to see it done. It is his duty as the representative of the Government to see that there is no unnecessary de- G. T. P. THROUGH IN ONE YEAR J. W. Stewart the Man Most Responsible For Construction of Railway Is Most optimistic With Regard to the Early Completion of the Road-Big Cut on Burns Lake Will Not Delay Track Laying-Eastern Head of Steel This Fall Will Be At Fort George Or At Least Opposite To That Town-The Constructor Speaks in the Highest Terms of the Character of the Railway That Is Now Being Constructed In That Section The question that is uppermost in the minds of all residents of this city and many that live outside ot Prince Rupert is, when will the Grand Trunk Pacific be completed? No one, of course, can answer that question authoritatively. Probably the man of all others that can come the nearest to giving an exact answer is J. W. Stewart, the active head of the firm that is constructing the line for the railway company, and who is better than any other man in direct touch with the operations that are under way. He, perhaps, can tell better than the officials of the Grand Trunk Pacific themselves, for while they can say how long it will take them to put the steel down with approximation, provided- the roadbed is ready for them, they are dependent in the final analysis upon Foley, Welch & Stewart for the preparation of the roadbed. Mr. Stewart haB just been over this end of the track as far as the steel goes. He returned on Sunday night from Hazelton and left yesterday morning for the' south with the chief engineer of the Grand Trunk Pacific, B. B. Kelliher, and the reprresentatlve of the Government, Collingwood Schreiber, Mr. Stewart has gone into the situation at the "front" very thoroughly and Is well pleased with the way the work Is going along. He Is not a man to be overly optimistic with regard to work, as everyone knows who is acquainted with him. When seen on Sunday night by The | "And what a road it will be!" With these words J. W. Stewart referred to the Grand Trunk Pacific, that is rapidly 'approaching completion. He says that the line is being constructed in the most approved shape, making it well nigh perfect.-Mr. Stewart's experience as a construction engineer and a contractor*qualifies him To speak on the subject and when he says that the line is to he the best on the continent it may be taken as assured that It will be. Collingwood Schreiber, the Government, engineer, hears out this grades and curves "was all thay night that the road in polnl of statement. He stated on Sundat could .ho desired. When completed he says that Prince Rupert as the terminal must be an important place. lay, so that this attitude of his towards the undertaking can be readily understood. With the line and with the city of Prince Rupe'rt lie seemed to be well satisfied. The road was an excellent one and he had no doubt a to the amount of traffic that would be handled over it as soon as it was ready to take care of the freight. Prince Rupert, he says, will be a great port. There will be a large amount of traffic come this way. He looks forward to seeing a great amount of grain go through the harbor. Where the dividing line will be separating the territory that will ship by the Great Lakes and' that which will come west to Prince Rupert, he said, could not be foretold. He felt that it would be somewhere far east of Edmonton. In this connection he points out that there will he an educating movement carried along with the nations of the Orient. The Japanese are learning to use wheat flour for food. The Japanese will teach the Chinese to do the same, and there will be developed In the Orient a splendid market for the grain of the prairies of the Canadian provinces. Then again, he looks to the shipping of grain by way of the Panama Canal as well as by the Mediterranean route to Europe. The {(arbor of Prince Rupert deeply interested him. He admired tne vast space of enclosed waters and the ease with which the port could be entered. The fishing industry was an attraction to him and lie made many inquiries with respect to its extent and its value. Speaking of land values in the city, Mr. Schreiber pointed out that the talk about the west being prone to speculate on real estate did not seem quite fair to him. He contended thai i here was tho same tendency In the eastern cities and values in many of those eastern places had shown quite as decided advances as had the lots in western cities. Prince Rupert, he felt, had a great future assured to her. When the railway came through there would be a most wonderful growth, he could not help feeling. Journal he was not anxious to venture a time for the completion of ihe line, but he stated that the pos- pects were now bright for a completion of the road in a year's time. He Is of the opinion that with the work going along as It now it that in a year from now the city of Prince Rupert may expect to be coupled up by rail with the east. Mr. Stewart does not believe In building up hopes without good foundation, and he accordingly does not want it to be accepted as certain that this will be the result. He, however, seems quite satisfied in his own mind that early In next year there will be a rail connection from east to west along the line of the-Grand Trunk Pacific. Mr. Stewart sees no reason for there being very much of the Una left to.finish when the present sen- son's work ends. At that time the lino will be to Fort George from the east, he says, or If it is not right into the townsite of Central Britisli Columbia It will be at least to the point opposite the town, with only the bridge to construct to connect up with Fort George. That being the case, there will be little time required to couple up with the interior town. There has been a lot of talk about the bridge that Is to connect with Fort George being a very difficult one to construct and one that will take a long time to complete. On this point The Journal has the assurance of C. C. VanArsdol, the divisional engineer of the Grand Trunk Pacific, that this is not the case. Mr. VanArsdol, who should- know .better than anyone else the character of the work, speaking on the subject a few days ago, stated that if necessary that bridge could be constructed in three months, or e\en in two. There is a long approach to it, but the line can be put on piles tHere and the filling done later. This is borne out by .Mr. Stewart, who corroborates what the Grand Trunk Pacific engineer had to say of the bridge. At this end all Is going along well. It will only he a week or two before Boulder Creek is crossed and then there will be a clear way for track laying. The construction work along the route is making splendid progress, says Mr. Stewart. The big rock cut at Burns Lake, which is being carried out by Dan Stewart, of this city, is not going lo delay matters in the least. He believes that the track laying will not he held up al all there. On the contrary, he would not be surprised to see the contractors out of the cut as soon as the track layers reach It. Last winter his brother got enough supplies in to complete the work and there is a large body of men on the work. Mr. Stewart has no object in holding out false hopes in regard to the work, so that It safe to gamble on the completion of the line of railway to Prince Rupert about a year from tills time. This means a groat deal for the city, as It will necessitate the most active operations here to be prepared for the coming of the line of railway, with all the business that will mean. Remember that Harry C. Evans, the pioneer piano tuner, is in the city. Leave orders at Hayner's. tf SHORT SESSION OF THE_ COUNCIL ADJOURNMENT TAKEN LAST NIGHT IN LF.SS THAN HALF IKHII AFTER THE OPEN.

ENGINEERING EXPERTS ARE NOW IN THE CITY Following the Visit of the Traffic Heads of the G. T. P. the Construction and Location Officials Are Now In Prince Rupert- Chief Engineer Kelliher and the Government Head, Collingwood Schreiber Arrived Yesterday There is an invasion of the city by engineers now, following the visit of the Grand Trunk Pacific heads a few weeks ago. In the natural sequence the engineering department would be the first to arrive, as they are the men upon whom devolves the duty of locating the line and constructing it. They are the pioneers and only after their work is completed- does scope appear for the traffic managers. The Prince Rupert yesterday brought the chief engineer of the Grand Trunk Pacific, B. B. Kelliher, and the Dominion Government engineer, Collingwood Schieiber, who, for a period extending beyond the average life of a man, has been filling the position he occupies. Mr. Schreiber is 82 years of age, but he looks no older than he did years ago. He, .moreover, shows little or no loss of vigor. Among the railway officials throughout Canada, Mr. Schreiber Is held in the highest »-espect. He is exacting in his inspection, but is never unreasonable. In consequence he numbers all of them as his friends. Interviewed here, he expressed general satisfaction with the way the work was proceeding on the Grand Trunk Pacific. He, however, showed a disposition to want to see the work finished and the line in operation as a transcontinental one. In this view he was seconded by Mr. Kelliher and C. C. VanArsdol, who expressed their desire to see the work finished. There is evidently a growing desire with all concerned, as the days for completion approach, a feverish haste being manifested to get the road in running order. Mr. Kelliher says the work is progressing very satisfactorily. He will, when he visits the line now completed from this end, proceed along the route to the end of steel from the eastward and continue his inspectio - there. It is doubtful whether Mr. Schreiber will find it convenient to span- the time to make the trip over the route where the work is not completed. He will return and go south by the steamer. From the other end of the line the work is proceeding well. Steel has been laid about fifty miles this side of Tete Jaune Cache and grading is in progress at various points far beyond that point. Mr. VanArsdol, speaking of the bridge that is to be constructed across the river near Fort George and which it has been reported would be a very heavy undertaking, says that there is nothing to delay work there. The bridge is not a difficult one to build. It can, in fact, be constructed if there'is necessity for It in a very short time. The bridge will not hold up the work for any time it is evident. Mr. Kelliher says that his visit is one of inspection. He had nothing special in view in connection with his trip. Th€ chief engineer, however, appeared to be more than usually interested In finding out how Prince Rupert was progressing. He manifested the deepest interest in the place and was pleased to see how it was progressing. The completion of the railway, he felt, would see a wonderful awakening and Prince Rupert would be a surprise. Accompanying the engineers north was V. G. Bogue, the harbor expert, who is charged with the preparation of the plans for the port. He has come here in connection with his work in that direction and will spend a few days here carrying out plans for the making of the great harbor that he has in view for Prince Rupert. EARRIEAU'S WEIGHT. Some exception has been taken by Joe Bayley's manager to a statement which has several times appeared in Vancouver papers to the effect that Barrieau and Bayley will weigh in at 135 pounds five hours previous to their bout of May 24. The articles expressly state that they shall weigh In at 133 pounds four hours and a half before the contest. o WANT LARGE INTEREST.

John Dalby, Agent. Dated December 4th, 1912. del4 J. D. McNiven, fair wage officer of the Dominion Government, with headquarters in Vancouver, has been investigating the circumstances connected with the strike called In the mines of Nanaimo district by the United Mine Workers. Mr. McNiven interviewed the officials of the union, who informed him they did not want an enquiry held under the terms and conditions of the Industrial Disputes Act, as the present dispute would have to be settled between the mine operators and the United Mine Workers of America. Employees, not members of the union, to the number of 500 have requested Mr. McNiven that an enquiry be held by him at once, and he will in all probability accede to the latter request. A committee representing the men outside the union has issued a statement which they desire to be given the fullest publicity, as follows: "In September, 1911, an agreement between the Western Fuel Company and their employees, representing in the neighborhood of 1500 men, was duly entered into and signed by the said company on the one side and the said employees, represented by a committee of five, on the other. Previous to this agreement being entered into, a holiday was declared and a mass meeting called for the purpose of appointing a committee, said committee to be known as the 'agreement committee,' whose duties were: "First, to confer with the operators and draft an agreement satisfactory to all concerned. This first duty they duly performed and in due time they submitted their report and proposed agreement to the men. The report of the committee was accepted and the form of agreement balloted upon and adopted by a unanimous vote. The committee then had the agreement permanently drawn up and signed by the company's representatives and themselves as representatives of the men. That committee's remaining duties are to see that the conditions laid down in the agreement are carried out to the satisfaction of all concerned. "The same conditions exist between the Pacific Coast Coal Company and the Vancouver-Nanaimo Coal Company and their respective employees, the agreements being dentical with the exception that they expire oil different dates. Now in the face of this we bave a strike declared by an organization which on February 11, 1913, had only 200 members in this district in good standing. (This information ie from the secretary of the Nanaimo Local, U.M.W., Mr. Arthur Jordan.) "This strike was declared by Robert Foster, district president, on instruction given him by Frank Far- rington, representing the International Union U.M.W. of A., who forwarded said instruction, using the authority of President John P. White. These Instructions were forwarded from Seattle under date of April 30, and the strike was declared on the following day, May 1, a strike planned for us by a foreign organization and in a foreign country and forced upon us without our being given a voice in the matter. "We appealed for a voice In the matter at their meeting on the evening of May 1, and what did we get? We were abused and insulted from t.ielr platform by a foreign agitator, and were whipped into submission by I he use of the words 'scab' and sucker' if we dared open our mouths in our own defence; treatment that any man, If a man, must resent. "In spite of all this abuse and intimidation we still maintained that we were bound to live up to our agreement and continue to work under the conditions of the said agreement until the time (two years) had expired, but rather than go to work HALIBUT CATCHES ARE EVER INCREASING George E. Foster Brought In 175,000 Pounds of Fish Yesterday to the Canadian Fish & Cold Storage Company's Dock-The Work of Unloading and Taking Care of the Catch Will Occupy the Staff at the Work All of Today With the largest catch on record in these waters, the steam trawler George E. Foster, of the Canadian Fish and Cold Storage Company, reached port yesterday with 175,000 pounds of halibut. Coming so close on the large influx of the past few days, the steamer remained alongside the wharf with her enormous cargo aboard until today, when it will be taken out of the storage quarters and packed away for future consumption. The continued success that Is attending the vessels engaged In the trade here Is an assurance that the port of Prince Rupert is the proper location at which to centralize the fish trade. This is the largest catch that has been made by an Individual fishing boat. The steamer used only eleven dories, so that the average taken shows that there was little time lost in taking in fish while on the banks. The other vessels of the fleet at the Cold Storage and at the other local packing houses left last night for the banks and will begin the taking of fish. The success which is* attending the operations is most gratifying to all engaged in the business. All that is now needed is the completion of the railway line to allow of the shipping of trainloads of fish to the eastern markets. not go near the polling station. Consequently the ballot was small, the vote standing 432 for work and 44 against. "In view of the small ballot we agreed to refrain from work and advised those who voted to govern themselves accordingly, and here is where we stand. We refuse to admit that we are willingly on strike and while we are in favor of a union we absolutely refuse to become members of an organization whose tactics are so disgraceful. The U.M.W. of A. has forced us into a strike, thus violating the law as it is laid down in the Industrial Disputes Act, which reads thus: 'Every employee who goes on strike contrary to the provisions of this act Is liable to a penalty of ten dollars for each day or part of a day that the strike lasts.' "We do not try to defend everything that is embodied in our agreements with the companies, but we maintain that these agreements were entered into in good faith, and with our eyes open, and should be kept sacred and inviolate till the term of agreement expires. And in the meantime if the mine workers, not only of Nanaimo and district, but of the whole of Vancouver Island, would unite themselves they should be able to satisfactorily attend to their own business without the need of foreign interference of which we have had plenty ol sad and costly experiences in the past."

In an interview with Mr. Rogers at Ottawa, he said In this connection; "The Government fully appreciates the requirements of Western Canada, and especially do we appreciate this in connection with the very evident and immediate necessity for the development of our harbors at Pacific ports, in order that they may be able to take care of the rapid expansion of trade in view of the early completion of the Panama Canal and the Increased probabilities for extended trade with our Pacific ports.

In addition to the prairie provinces there is a large and growing market In New Ontario which will afford an outlet for increasing quantities of Ontario apples.

Much as there may be desire on the part of the residents of this city to avoid a boom In the place when the railway approaches completion and Is actually through, there is no denying that it will in all probability be impossible to stem the tide that will then come, and Prince Rupert will see its boom, Judging from all the information that can be got, there is every reason to expect that by this time next year the road will be an accomplished fact, and while the Grand Trunk Pacific may not be operating through trains, there will be trains running over every part of the line at that time. The money stringency that prevails now may prevent the boom in Its fullest for some little time longer than would otherwise be the case, but the development of the city on a grander scale than anything that has ever been dreamed of cannot be long postponed. With the railway assured in one year or even a few months later than that, which is the outside limit of time that anyone will fix, this city is but nothing to what it must become in the next few months. This city must in a few months' time burst into a port becoming the importance that it will attain as the terminal of the greatest railway on the continent of America In point of capacity for handling trade. It becomes the shipping point where ocean vessels of the first magnitude will come to receive and to discharge freight and passengers. It becomes the city where thousands of j tourists will spend a part of the summer and for whose accommodation the Grand Trunk Pacific will have located here its second liotel in point of capacity. Sometimes there are people that talk of real estate being too high in Prince Rupert. Real estate in the business section of the city has started to reach its proper values. Increasing the values of real estate simply cannot make a place prosperous, we admit, but the increase in values must come as the city develops into a place of the first importance on the coast. Prince Rupert, as a matter of fact, instead of being ahead of the times Is a year behind at least. There will have to be a year's development overtaken some time in the early history of the place. Some of these days the world will waken up to the fact that Prince Rupert offers the best on the continent and offers it right now. There will then be such a rush towards this city that the most optimistic will be surprised. sible by a new process that has been discovered by French experimenters. The paper says: "Transportation of live fish is an expensive matter from the fact that it requires from 1 to 4 gallons of water per pound of fish, according to the kind, so that a railroad car having 10 tons limit for the load can transport only one-half to one ton of live fish. Messrs. Mir and Audige now use a method of freezing fish in blocks of ice, according to Pictet's experiments, and can now transport a large quantity of fish in a relatively small weight of ice. The fish are at first contained in a large amount of water, then winle the tank is placed in a closed space, oxygen under pressure arrives upon the water, so that tho greater part can now lie drawn off and the fish remain in good condition in a very small amount of water, as the oxygen supplies their respiration. Freezing is now done by plunging the vessel with the fish into a refrigerating- tank, and in this way an ice block is obtained In which the fish are frozen, but will come to life again when thawed out. The block is wrapped around with suitable coverings and on the outside is put a heat-protecting jacket, then the block is ready to_ be placed on the car. In practice, such blocks can be piled up in refrigerator cars whose temperature is kept near the freezing point. Upon arrival at their destination, the fish are put through a very slow thawing process, which lasts for about ten hours The inventors claim that this saves heavy and bulky liquid, and there are no complicated or costly devices needed, the process being a simple and cheap one." v t-*-*-***-* C VJJJLMJLMMJLMJC2LM LUMBER Coal, Cement, Plaster and Brick AND A COMPLETE LINE OF BUILDERS' SUPPLIES s WESTHOLME LUMBERX0., LTD.

The importance of a drydock such as the Graud Trunk £acific is building here is apt to be underestimated unless the cost of repairs to oceangoing vessels is understood to some extent. Speaking in Vancouver before the Board of Trade, Mr. Blair, of that city, in pressing the need of a dock in Vancouver, said that during the first three months of the present year there had been spent $226,000 at Victoria in the way of repairs to big ships, besides about $75,000 for repairs to smaller craft. Also $150,000 had been spent for repairs to other vessels which went to Seattle for repairs, making a total of $450,000, which should have gone into the pockets of the tradesmen and merchants of Vancouver, and would have done so had Vancouver possessed a drydock.

The Process of Making the Cans Was Studied by the Many Pleasure Seekers. The third anniversary of the inauguration of the local lodge of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, which is now in such a flourishing condition, proved a grand success. The Bteam- er Princess Mary of the C,P|R, was utilized for the purpose and the vessel proved admirably adapted for tliul kind of an event. It had been expected to get away from here about 8 o'clock on Sunday morning, but the steamer was delayed and the departure was accordingly made at 10 o'clock. The day was a delightful one and over 150 members of the Eagles and their friends took advantage of the opportunity of visiting the canneries in the Skeena. The season for taking the salmon has not yet commenced and so the excursionists had not the opportunity of seeing the canning in full operation. They had, however, the chance to see the can-making process at some of the points that were visited. Owing to low water, Essing- ton was not visited. The arrangements as carried out by the Order were all that could have been wished for. Provision was made for the excursionists by the engagement of Gray's Orchestra. The crew of the Mary also took special pains to make the day pass pleasantly and tlie party returned to the city about 9 o'clock in the evening, well satisfied with the arrangements that had been made for their pleasure. point of commencement contain'ng 640 acres more or less.
