The Crown's Evidence
Has All Been Put In
In The Murder Trial
Before adjournment last evening
of the Assize Court all the evidence
for the Crown in the case of Rex vs.
Ohara and Nagano for murder had
been put in. It was then after 4
o'clock, and Mr. Shoebotham for Nagano, asked for an adjournment until
the morning, when he could put all
his evidence in in a short time. Mr.
Patmore, for Ohara, wished- also to
take up the question of putting in
witnesses. Mr. Jiistslce Macdonald
concurred In these requests and adjourned court until 10 this morning.
It Is expected this case will be concluded by tonight.
Yesterday morning W. E. Fisher,
counsel for the Crown, called corroborative evidence. E. Carlson gave
his testimony as to what took place.
He added little or nothing new to
that already in.
Ernest Pierce, who was with Ratchford on the night of the trouble, was
also called. He testified that Murphy
was stabbed by Ohara just outside
the door.
John Wesley, an Indian who had
watched part of the mix-up from the
street was a slow witness, as his evidence h.ad to be interpreted by Rev.
W. E. Collison Into English, and then
by the official Japanese interpreter
Into Japanese. He added nothing
new to the evidence already given.
Upon resuming In the afternoon
Dr. N. McNeill was called to testify
to the character of the wounds.
He testified to having made a post
niorlem examination of the body of
Plttman at the B. C. Undertakers.
Among other wounds, there was one
on the left cheek extending down
over the left lower jaw bone, over
the neck until within half an inch
of the breast bone, nt about the centre of that bone. There were wounds
which looked as If it had been caused
hy a sharp instrument about the
breast bone. Viens in the neck had
been severed and also arteries. There
were two small wounds in the upper
lobe of the left lung, which might
have been caused by a shap insrtru-
ment. Death was due to hemorrhage he believed.
Asked how far a man could go
wounded that way, witness said that
a man could not likely go very far.
He would not expect him to go more
than 500 yards. He would think the
wound was caused by one blow.
Cross-examined by Mr. Shoebotham, witness was asked to explain
the two wounds in the heiyrt.
The doctor said that the two
wounds were not more than an eighth
of an inch apart. They, were very
similar.
Witness said that there was nothing in what he found to prompt him
to believe the man was unhealthy.
The man would he a strong man.
He did not think the wound
would have been made by a clever.
Joshua Robinson, another Indian,
gave evidence which had to be doubly
interpreted.
Tn his cross-examination by Mr.
Shoebotham he testified that he did
not see the blow struck by Ohara.
He saw Murphy fall.
Tho court adjourned at 4:15, until
today.

COAL PROSPECTS      'GOVERNMENT TO
GOOD AT HAZELTON
DEPOSITS     AT     TWENTY     MILE
MOUNTAIN ARE VERY
PROMISING
Development Will Take Place At Once
To Open Up The
Property.
That the coal deposits near Twenty Mile are to be developed in the
near future is the news brought by
Arthur Skelhorne, who is spending a
few days in the district, says the
Omineca Miner, of Hazelton. A report on the property by James Ash-
worth, a noted engineer, has just
been received.
Of the eleven seams occurring, only
one is recommended for development,
but that is evidently of considerable
importance. Mr. Ashworth reports
that No. 2 seam contains 5 ft. 4 ins.
of bituminous coal, coking 71 per
cent, on a nine-ton test. He estimates
that the seam contains 14,000,000
tons, and as the point for working is
only 300 feet from the siding at Sea-
ton, the proposition looks extremely
favorable.
This coal can be landed at Prince
Rupert to compete on the most favorable terms with the Vancouver
Island product.
Mr. Skelhorne Is forming a development syndicate to open up th--?
property, which is owned by the Sea-i
ton Coal Company.

Everything Will Be Done To Restore
Injured Men From
Front.
The city has been placarded with
posters relative to the Patriotic Fund
campaign next week.
The Government will provide artificial limbs, eyes, etc., to such soldiers from Canada as have lost them
at the front. Men discharged in England are entitled to the best medical
advice available and thereafter to the
best possible type of artificial limbs
or eyes, as the case may be. These
are provided at the expense of the
Canadian Government. Men who are
discharged in Canada are entitled to
like consideration. Everything possible is to be done, in short, to restore shattered men so far as pos
sible to their normal condition. This
is considered to be exclusively the
function of the Government.
Artificial limbs' manufacture has
reached a very high state of perfection, so that crutches will probably
be little in evidence after the war.

Enemy More Active
Along Italian Front
But Held In Check
On Western Front
Calm Has Prevailed
Aeroplane Fight
Paris, Dec. 8.—An official report
says it has been comparatively calm
on the front. Artillery actions took
place at Artois in sectors of Loos and
Givenchy between the Somme and tbe
Oise. In face of activity on the
part of the enemy's artillery, our
guns opened an action of great violence. Observations made by aeroplanes enabled us to establish the efficiency of our fire.
.Fighting with grenades continues
to the east of Butte De Souain, where
we made progress between Argonne
and thi Meuse. Our batteries destroyed several reservoirs containing
suffocating gases.
One of 0ur aeroplanes giving chase
at a height of 3,000 metres of a German machine, approached within a
distance of 20 metres, when it attacked the German aeroplane with
machine guns. The enemy's aeroplane took Are and Immediately exploded, two passengers falling within
our lines.
A Belgian offiical report says artillery action have been quite intense
along the whole Belgian front. We
counter shelled effectively the opposing batteries and shattered the enemy's works at Car Poesele. We dispersed also a convoy company on
the road between Dixmude and Ste-
enstraete.

Be prepared for the campaign of
the local Patriotic Fund Committee
on Dec 13,
Rome, Dec. 8.—An official report
states that along the whole front
there has been greater activity on
tlie part of the enemy's artillery, to
which our batteries effectively replied. The enemy also Is making extensive use of asphyxiating gases.
On Monday afternoon intense preparation by the artillery was followed by the enemy's Infantry making
attacks on our positions north of
Pre. The attacks were completely
repulsed.
On Ihe Carso front, despite ihe adverse weather conditions, our infantry is maintaining its aggressive attitude.
A brilliant action whicli developed
yesterday in northern Reene enabled
us to capture a strong extended 011-
trenchment to the east of Petclno. We
took one hundred and forty-six prisoners, including eight officers, a
quantity of rifles and ammunition
and other war materials.
The Granby Company had been
credited with the ability to lay down
Its copper in New York at about 8%
cents per pound, but the quarterly
statement shows the figure to be
11.8 cents per pound. The company's
Grand Forks property has been
known to be a high cost producer,
but the new Anyox mine was expected to bring the average much lower
than that shown in the September
30th quarter.
Officials of the company explain
the situation as follows: Cost at
Anyox was 7.939 cents per pound;
at Grand Forks 10.91 cents, to which
musl be added frelghl, refining, selling and general eastern expense.
These bl'oughl the Anyox figure up
lo 9.4 cenls and Grand Forks to 12.4
i cents, or an average of 11,0 cents per
pound, after all credits for precious
I metal values. In other wards, while

PRESCMPTOUS TORIES.
-I ),. .   i ery   wrath  because
the local Conservatives received a
messagi from the Chief Inspector of
Fisheries on this coast stating that
certain i oncessions had been granted
bj the Department at Ottawa in the
interests of the herring industry. In
a special spasm Ihe News writer
wants to know what Joe Merrytield
hail to do with it. The question is
very easily answered. It was answered by Mr. Cunningham himself when
he was here, and answered at the
meeting in the city hall. Before the
representation had been made by tbe
local committee, Mr. Cunningham had
been approached on this subject
through the Conservatives of Prince
Rupert. Mr. Merryfleld had written
to Mr. Clements, the member for the
district, urging action along the line
up en which the concessions have
now been granted, in order to meet
what was felt to be a need for the
present time here. Mr. Clements had
taken tho matter up, either through
the Department at Ottawa, or directly with Mr. Cunningham, nnd the
fishermen are receiving the benefits
of that action.
To the Liberals, it would appeal-
that it is a most presumptuous act
on the part of the local Conservative
Association to make any representations to the Government looking to
the benefitting of any class in the
community. One can readily- understand that these Liberals so regard
the situation, having in mind the record of that party when it was in
power. But the Conservatives of
Prince Rupert are constantly bringing to the attention of the various
departments at Ottawa, through the
member for the district, matters that
need attention and looking to the
fullest development of the district
and the city, or to the benefit of
any class of workers like the fishermen. It is true that they are not
out shouting about what they are doing. They have, however, a member
in Mr. Clements, who is ever ready-
on every reasonable request to back
it up. The local Conservatives are
without ceasing, doing what they can
to se- that the fullest justice is done
- ry class In ihe community, and
■li, .  will continue to do it.
It will be remembered that having
In  view ihe whole situation  the re-
ii--ii ion , madi   [or the benefit of
tl i   fishermen 'by  the  local  Conser-
itives, through  Mr. Merryfleld, was
■  allow the taking of herring within
e bounds of the area, as now allow-
ed for ibis year. The committee
,vhich sal here, composed of men on
both sliley of politics, ashed for the
extension of the right to fish for herring, in the whole of the waters of
Distrlcl No. -'. which takes In o wider
area than that now allowed to be
fished over. Such a concession may
come, but action could not be taken
until the Sitting Of the Advisory
Board later In the winter, which
w mid render it of no practical benefit for local boats this season. This
was exactly what the local Conservn-
ti\os realized, and accordingly pressed for this special area to be effective this season.
There was no attempt made by the
local Conservatives to appropriate
any honor for what has been done.
No attempt was made to drag anything thai might appear to savor of
partylsm into a matter that would
tvork to (he advantage of the port,
and that deserving class of fishermen
tbat we are endeavoring to have make
this its headquarters. It remained
to the Liberal organ to attempt to
stir up party feeling on the subject.
But the outburst of wrath on the
part of that organ will in no wise
deter the local Conservatives from
making representations that it considers are for the advantge of the
place whenever it choses to do so.
We do not wish to detract in any
shape from what tbe local committee
has done, when we state that we believe the concessions granted, with respect to the hot-ring fishing, would
have been granted had the representations not been made by the general
committee and that tbe interest
shown In Ihe herring fishermen
through Mr. Merryfleld would have
brought about the results desired. We
do not want to drag partylsm into
any of these things. We would gladly retrain from even stating the cold
facts were it not that an ill advised
move has been made by the other
side to try to gain a party advantage.

gloinerator. This should, of course,
have a decided tendency to lower
costs.
While Granby's report for the September 30th quarter showed net pro.
fits of $486,435, the actual results
have turned out to be considerably
better. The preliminary figure was
based on an inventory value of 15%
cents per pound for 8,385,100 pounds
of unsold copper, which has since
been 'disposed of for $168,000 more
than the inventory value. In other
words, net for the quarter was $654,-
000 instead of $486,000 as shown by
the report.
