Bellingham, Feb. 23.—All day yesterday the hunt for the two bandits
who, near Samish, murdered the
three passengers on the Great Northern train, was continued without
success. Enticed by the large reward
offered by the company for the capture of the murderers alive or dead,
hundreds of men and boys tramped
through the woods and patrolled the
r-Ain roads and bridges, while armed
deputies searched out among the adjacent islands of the San Juan
group.
It is thought the bandits escaped
by boat and took refuge on Sucie Island. Deputy Sheriff Bowden has
closely examined the sbore-line, but
has not been able to find a trace of
any boat nor of anyone landing.

Death of li. Sinpleton.   .
The death occurred" yesterday
morning in Victoria of J. B. Staple-
ton, an old resident of that city.
The deceased has been ailing for
some time. Two daughters are well
known in this part of the province. They are .'Irs. Robert Johnson,
of Inverness, and Mrs. Fr<d Rudge,
of Port Essington. Both of them were
at his bedside when he passed away.
Mrs. Johnson reached Victoria Sunday morning.
O London, Feb. 23.—Beilin telegrams say that a wave of naval enthusiasm has been sent rolling over
Germany. The latest parliamentary
triumph of Admiral Von Tipitz was
reached in the Reichstag on Saturday. The House passed the 1913
naval estimates showing an increase
of £400,000.
The opinion is expressed that in
view of the overwhelming majority
that the temporary improvement in
the Anglo-German relations may not
be permitted to continue for any
time. The influence of the German
naval policy is to establish the sentiment that a powerful fleet is regarded as indispensable iu ensuring Germany's future.

At the meeting of the council last
night a report recommending that a
sewer be provided on Borden Street
was referred to the city engineer for
report. At the previous meeting of
the council it was pointed out in a
verbal report of the health committee that there were three aldermen
living on the street and if their services were of any value to the city
a sewer was essential.
It was recommended also by tlie
health committee that the city engineer be relieved entirely of this
department and that it be placed under the charge of the new health
inspector. This was acted  upon.
L. J. Conkey, of the Foley, Welsh
and Stewart staff at New Uazelton,

Vera Cruz, Feb. 23.—A government troop train carrying a company of infantry from Mexico City
destined for Jalapa was olowu up by
the rebels today. The wreck occurred
near Lima,
All aboard, Including fifty-five officers and men and an English engineer, were killed. A passenger
train in the wake of the troop train
was fired on by the rebels but escaped  by backing up.
The work of plastering the new-
Premier Hotel will start today it is
expected. The material is on bund
for it and the work will be carried
out without, further delay.
Kenneth Munroe says that there
has been some delay waiting for material for the hotel building, so that
it has not progressed as rapidly as
It would otherwise have done. Now,
however, the wafk is going alone

Since President Wilson has raised the embargo on the shipment of
arms into Mexico, rifle, revolver, pewder and big gun manufacturers in
all parts of the United States are busily engaged in shipping weapons

HORTICULTURAL
SOCIETY'S REQUEST
City Council Is Asked to Assist In
the Work—Request Is Made That
Water Be Supplied Free of Charge
For Lawn Purposes During the
Summer Months—Favorable Reception By Members of the Board
There was a delegation from the
Prince Rupert Horticultural Society
before the city council last evening.
It consisted of M. M. Stephens, D.
0. Stewart, A. II. Harris and A. II.
Tomllnson, the Provincial Government horticulturist, The deputation
asked for the removing of restrictions in the matter of using water
for lawns In the dry weather of
summer and also assistance in buying n stumping machine for the city,
The requests nn' with favorable consideration and n formal request in
writing will  be made.
M. M, Stephens, speaking lor the
Society, explained that they were
there to ask for two things. The organization sought to do something
towards beautifyng the city, Later
they might ask for some scheme for
beautifying the hillsides that at
piesent were unsightly. This was not
going to be asked for yet, however,
until tiie city was in better shape.
The Society sought to encourage the
beautifying of the grounds about thi.
homes In the city.
It was proposed with the help of
A. H. Tomlinsbn, the provincial horticulturist, to issue a monthly bulletin giving Information on the best
varieties to plant and other information. This would take about all the
funds available.
It was proposed to ask that during
i the dry months of the summer that
the restrictions with respect to the
use of ,-ta ml pipes on lawns should
not be pressed. The water used would
not be great, and it was felt that in
beautifying the lawns (hey were add-
I ing to the city.
The  Society   proposed  also  to  get
1 ii stumping machine which could be
renti d out to those w ho deslri d to
clear  their  lots.     This   was     rather
j more than the Society could handle
Itself,
Mr Tomllnsor, corroborated the
statements of Mr, Stephens. He said
thai the cheapest machine for stumping would cost aboui $200. The citizens     had  shown  groat   Interest     in
ithis.   He fell   thin   the council   might
well  back  them  up,  Gardening was
| difficult here, but it would be attended with good result.-'. Prince
Rupert could grow many plants, it
I would  not  have ihe cutting    winds
I that  Victoria had.    The    conditions
compared  very favorably with those
in Vancouver.
Aid.    Morrlssey as acting   mayor
i said that he felt very favorably inclined  to the proposition.    The city
'engineer had said that be thought
there  would  be    no    difficulty    In
| granting free water. With respect to
the stumping machine, he also favor-
It Is Proposed to Call For Tenders
For a Launch For the Service-
Only One of These Craft Will Be
Allowed to Operate on That Body
of Water-Plan Adopted By Council
The subject of a launch for Sha-0
watlans Lake to. do the towing in
connection with the putting in cl
the pipe line there came before the
city council last evening. A report
was received from the city engineer
in which the offer of Captain Swan-
sou to put a launch on the lake was
referred to. Several other launch
men had applied as well. The engineer suggested that the city put a
scow on the lake and call for tenders
for a launch to be put on the lake.
One should be awarded the privilege.
Aid. Kerr asked why it was proposed that only one boal be allowed
on  the lake.
Aid. Maltland said there would
not be enough work for more than
one boat.
Aid. Morrison wished to know if
the city could control the boats on
the lake. The city had a right to the
flow of water from the lake, but he
doubted if the city could say that
boats could not ply on it.
Aid. Dybhavn thought that the city
had the right to prohibit boats from
navigating there.
The city engirteer in reply to a
question said that the city would
have 1200 tons to carry on the lake.
Aid Kerr pointed out that what
he wanted to know was whether the
station men getting in supplies would
be protected as to rates.
The engineer said that he under-

Ottawa, Feb. 23.—It is stated here
on good authority that Sir William
Mackenzie, head of the Canadian
Northern Railway, who is here at
present, has been advised that for
the immediate present the question
of further Government aid to the
Canadian Northern Railway should
be dropped. It may be dealt with
later In the session.
Sir William has been given to understand that any attempt to pass
such legislation tinder present conditions would be impolitic. The hope is
expressed that prospects may lie
brighter as the session advances.

PRAISE   FOR   SOCIALIST.
,\'ot long ago ihe Liberal party In
British Columbia had nothing but
abuse for the Socialist members in
the Legislature. Now with the Liberals completely routed from that
body and the Socialists the sole representatives of un opposition there
is very fulsome praise being bestowed upon Parker Williams by the Liberal press. A while ago the Socialist,
leader was everything vile. Now, it
would appear, be has suddenly become brilliant.
PRIM E   RUPERT'S CLIMATE.
A     study    of
throughout    the
time affords an opportunity to learn
that Prince Rupert is one of the
most favored spots in point of weather in North America. We have before us the records for about a week
ago. It shows that Prince Rupert
bar, been Laving at the warmest period of tho day practically the same
temperature as San Francisco. It is,
moreover, the only other city on the
Coast that has had this favored conditio.. Taking February 17, Prince
Rupert' high! I temperature was
58, which was the same as San Francisco. Victoria, tho came day, had as

weather-beaten wrecks cast forth a
suffering groan from the shores of
Prince Rupert, one an ex-mayor aud
one an ex-preacher, and both exhausted in their efforts to separate
themselves from their entanglements
of slime and political mire. In their
efforts to resurrect themselves, like
all drowning people, they care not
who else they may drag down to ob-
mo has seen fit to elect for six coning from this forlorn hope, we find
the ex-mayor and the ox-preacher
making rantic efforts to bury Mr.
Wm. Manson midst their own slimy
surroundings, It is more than re-
gretlable to see a pantomime of
such talent seeking to fasten its
poisonous fangs around one of Xa-
ture's gentlemen, In scurrilous attacks by any one or group ot men
upon a man of Mr. Manson's sterling
character and Integrity whom ihe
province lias seen fit to appoint to
more than one position of trust, ever
faithfully performed, whom Nanai-
moh as seen fit io elect for six consecutive times for their mayor, the
first Government Agent in Prince
Ruperl, honorably filled the mayor's
chair in this city, and tbe people of
Skeena District have imposed confidence in him for iwo consecutive
terms;' such a record is no doubt
held in an envious light by small,
egotistical minds. It savors bad from
a man that at the late municipal
campaign openly avowed himself to
have no political party affiliations,
purely and simply Independent; and
the ink was scarcely dry on the
election returns announcing his defeat for mayor when lie at once rode
jon the front seat in the band wagon
of Liberalism, and now benignly
the temperatures j serves as the president of the Lib-
continent at this | era] Association, and his colleague,
the ex-preacher, groaning under the
labors of muck-raking everything
from a glacier in McNlcholl Creek
to a muskeg hole in Cloyah Creek to
find refuse to fire at Bowser. Oh,
pity it is to have to take passage in
a craft manned and officered by such
a crew of mutineers. Many a golden
hope has been blasted between the
hills of the Yukon and the Parliament buildings at Victoria, and history is fast shaping itself to be repeated.
As a Liberal of the old school
that stood out in bold relief when
Liberal knighthood was In bloom I
can only stand by with my good old
friend Bill Lynch and bow a gallant
head in shame at the unprincipled
methods, the disreputable political
ambitions and the want of the
simplest form of political diplomacy
now in practice.
Yours truly,
LIBERAL.

GAMBLING CASES
ADJOURNED
NOMINAL  I'l.M'.'S   INFLICTED
A FFW INSTANCES BY
MAGISTRATE,
Legal  Adviser Arrived on Scene
Takes   Exception to
Proceedings.
IN
mid
Yesterday morning a start
made with the hearing ot the alleged
gambling case by Police Magistrate
Carss. All was proceeding well, with
convictions in the different cases
called, when L. W. Patmore appeared
on a hurry-up call from one of the
men and immediately upon his arrival the situation changed. The arrival of counsel resulted In exception being taken to the procedure,
with the result that an adjournment
was taken until today to allow of
the consulting of authorities.
About four or five    of those who
were in  the Two  Star  Hotel     when
line. He could not consent to undo
what had been done.
.Mr. Patmore wanted to know what
the evidence was against the men.
The magistrate said they had admitted the offense and on that admission lie had  fined  them.
Mr. Patmore wanted to know if
i (hey pleaded guilty.
Magistrate Carss said that he had
nsked the question as to their being
guilty or inn guilty. The offenders
had not pleaded either way, but had
started in and explained what was
w:ls'done. On that admission he had
found them guilty.
Mr. Patmore objected that this
was not the proper course lo follow
under British practice. The accused
should plead. Mis Information was
that the men were prepared to plead
"not guilty." Having done that, the
evidence should be produced on
which  lo convict  them.
The magistrate felt thai his course
had been a correct one. He had no
diiubt as to the guili Of the men. If
this were allowed lo go on il would
lead to further troubles in the illy.
He consented, however,    to adjourn
SIR WILFRID AND

ON  SUBJECT.
Charges In Connection With Railway

Represented.
the police made the raid on Saturday, ,„„ casea untii the ,,ex, nav ,„ „)i0,v
night, were convicted by the police
magistrate, who, from what was
told by those who were there playing, concluded that there was a
technical violation of the Acl and
that they were gambling in the
house. It was admitted by tbe men
that there were aboul five tables al
which games wire played with
cards. The loser had treated the
v. ole table either to sofl drinks or
ti   cigarB generally.
The owner ul the house was fined
$25.
ii was jnsi in thai stage of the
game that Mr. Patmore arrived, having been sent for by ihe men incused. He enquired Into Hie proceedings as far as they had gone and at
once took exception.
The magistrate said thai If there
was any dissatisfaction with the results that an appeal could be taken.
He was convinced that there was a
breach of the law. He had felt,
however, that the men did not know-
that they were breaking the law in
the matter und accordingly he had
imposed the lowest fine he had ever
111 ted for gambling, $5.00, Including costs. Had ho been convinced
that these men knew what they
wire doing In violating the law he
would have inflicted a much heavier

Tenders for fir decking for plank
roadways in t'm city were opened at
the council meeting last evening.
Two tenders were received. The
Weslholine Company's bid for $18.80
was awarded the contract. Prince
tvuperi Lumber Company bid $19.oo
a thousand.
Buy a lot in  Port  Edward  before
the railway Is completed.
Sir Wilfrid  Laurier's promise that
the    Grand Trunk Pacific    Railway
would cost the people of Canada only
$13,000,000  has often been    quoted
and sometimes misrepresented. What
the  former  premier said  in   Parlia-
| ment was that "the sum total of the
money  to  be  paid   by   the  Govern-
■ ment  for  the construction    of that
i line  from   Moncton   to  the     Pacific
I Ocean  will  be  In  the  neighborhood
j of  twelve or  thirteen     million  dol-
| lai'H and not a cent more." Sir Wilfrid did  not  claim  that the eastern
section would be built for that much
money.    One government    estimate
was $53,000,000, and a higher   one
] was $61,000,000. This was to include
ja large part of the cost of the Que-
I bee Bridge, Sir Wilfrid was contend-
[ Ing  that  final  Government     (lability
i would  be only seven years'  Interest
nn the cost.    All ihe rest would he
borne i>y the company,
The country is now in a position
in check up Sir Wilfrid's statement
on his own Interpretation. The east-
cm section will have cost at the end
of this year $101,000,000 to which
we may add, as Sir Wilfrid did, the
Interest during construction,    brlng-
lolal    above    $180, ,000,
Seven years' simple Interest at four
per rem. on this sum Is $50,400,000.
Two-fifths of the ciisi nt' the Quebec
Bridge, Included by Mr. Fielding In
Ills estimate, Will add some $7,000,-
000, Iii addition $6,000,000 In casn
has been paid in respect to the
western section under the famous
"Implement" clause by which the
late government undertook to make
up lo the company all that it should
lose by selling lis three per cent,
bonds at  a  discount.
This amount would have been
much larger but for the tact that
the present government Is itself buying tiie guaranteed bonds at. par to
escape paying one-fifth of their face
valjie  to  the  company.  The   loss  by
this purchase will he another $."i,-
000,000, but leaving this out we
have an amount six times I hat which
Sir Wilfrid declared would be the
utmost cent of direct liability. This
supposes that, the Grand Trunk Pacific Company will take over the
railway at the cost and carry out the
undertaking according to a contract,
paying interest after seven years on
the total expenditure by the government. The fixed charges against the
company will be over $5,000,000 a
year ou the Eastern section alone
—or about $3000 per mile—which
is, we believe, more than double
those of any other Canadian railway.
To Allot Stations.
At the council meeting last evening it was announced that six stations had been laid off on the pil>e
line of the hydro-electric proposition.
There were about twelve gangs that
had applied for stations. It was proposed to have these draw for places.
Wain Itecognitloii.
The British Columbia t'nion Steam
Engineers wrote the cou cil last
evening asking that they be recognized as was done in southern cities.
The organization represented itselt
as purely Canadian. The letter was
referred  to the board of works.
Wants Walks and Water.
H. E. Gampp petitioned the council last night for a plank walk where
he was building. This was referred
to the board of works. He also desired water beyond Conrad Street.
This was also referred to the committee.
Coal Weighing.
A report from the city purchasing
agent last night relative to weighing
coal was referred to the board or'
works for report. The means of securing a weigh-man had been referred to Mr. Brooksbank, who suggested as the only solution that
someone be allowed to put up a
stand for magazines, etc., there and
work the weigh scales on a commission.

Telegraph to .Smithers.
P. W. Dowling, district superintendent of the Dominion Government
Telegraph Service, returned on Sunday from a trip along the line of the
Grand Trunk Pacific as. far as Telk-
wa. He reports the weather good In
the interior and it was reported that
work was going along well on the
railway line. A telegraph connection
from the main line of the Dominion
Government wire to Smthers is now
being given.
Electric Light Gives Revenue
The report of the Electric Light. Plant for the month of January
showed a nei revenue to the city of $2750.77. The report which
