J. Sloan, Who Was Manager of the Bankers' Trust Company Here, Told In Court How He Had Been Persuaded to Invest In It--Principals In Victoria Committed for Trial. Franklin C. Cook, J. O. Hearn and R. N. O'Connor have been committed for trial in Victoria on a charge of the theft of $8000 from P. J. Pop- ham of that city, a result of a business transaction in connection with the Bankers' Trust Corporation, now defunct. All are now out on bail. The case is exciting great interest in financial circles because of the prominence of all the accused parties. Local interest attaches to the matter inasmuch as there arc several local investors In the concern and a local branch of it was opened here. In the preliminary hearing in Victoria before Magistrate Jay, J. J. Sloan, manager at Prince Rupert, testified he had conversed with Cook and Allen on February 25, the day after a meeting of the directors, and discussed financial matters of the Hankers' Trust, especially with reference to the Prince Rupert branch. Mr. "Allen had then told the witness that the Hankers' Trust had on hand at. that time $24,000, though he did ,not say where the money was. To Public Prosecutor Harrison, Mr. Sloan stated he had purchased four hundred shares of stock. As things turned out, he said, he certainly got those shares under a misrepresentation. At that time he could not say offhand what was the standing of the company, though he had examined the balance sheet and auditor's statement. He had paid $1000 cash for his shares and given notes for the balance. Some of these notes were in the bands of the Bankers' Trust, lie did not know where others were. Mr. Cook was formerly president of the People's Trust Company, which went into liquidation recently. He came to British Columbia several years ago and located in New Westminster, where for some time lie did a large business not only In his own name, but with the People's Trust Company. He is a tall, fine looking man of about forty. Ills optimistic views and splendid conversational abilities are undoubtedly fine personal assets. Mr. Hearn is a younger man, clean shaven and of dark complexion, and is well known, especially in Vancouver, where he has been long engaged as salesman and broker. As Cook was head of the Bankers' Trust Company, so Hearn was the mainspring of The Negotiators Limited, another concern which worked in close touch with the Bankers' Trust. The lat- ter's activities have lately been chiefly in Victoria, and other places on Vancouver Island, rather than in Vancouver itself. Cook and some of his friends are said to have lately paid-a visit to Cumberland, and to have done an excellent business among the striking miners of that formerly prosperous neighborhood. Tho Negotiators were active enough in Vancouver, for it is said that some trouble recently occurred there as a result, of an attempt on the part of representatives of the concern to bribe bank clerks of the Terminal Oity. The story goes that agents of the Negotiators were looking tor likely customers in so determined a way that they attempted SECTION 6 BLOCK 27, LOTS 9 & 10 $7000—92000 Cash Balance 6, 12, 18, 24, 3u months, 7 per cent.

The Treasury and Audit Offices Arc to lie Re-organized by W. M. Dunlop of Ottawa. GOVERNMENT SHOWS LESSON TAUGHT BY FIGHTING STRENGTH By a Good Majority the House of Commons Votes Down An Amendment Censuring the Administration-Forty-One of a Majority Is Given In the House- The Naval Bill Will Be Passed. With the close at the expiration of the present month of the provincial fiscal year various important changes In the civil service of British Columbia go into force, the most, important of these being marked by the retirement upon superannuation allowance of the deputy finance minister and the auditor-general, respectively Mr. J. McB. Smith and Mr. John A. Anderson. The former is officially succeeded by Mr. W. J. Goepel, until now inspector of provincial offices, and the latter by Mr. William Allison, late government agent at Hazel ton, who is now in Victoria to take over his new and important duties as prescribed by legislation of the past session creating as independent the office of auditor- general. His successor at Hazelton, one of the most important administrative centres in the province, is Mr. Hos- kins, late of Nelson, to fill whose former position Mr. S. S. Jarvis, lat'e chief clerk In the Hazelton office, is transferred. Coincident, with the appointment of the auditor-general, upon whom, under the new act, so great a responsibility will devolve, the creation of the treasury board is ai.iiutinced to consist of the minister of finance (chairman), the prime minister, the provincial secretary and the attorney-general. Owing to the vast amount of money now being annually spent by the province and the great volume of business transacted, it. has been decided while bringing into operation the new audit ct to reorganize and improve the treasury and audit office systems, modernizing both on the most approved lines. For Ibis purpose the government has asked Mr. William M. Dunlop to come out from Ottawa and lend his expert aid in this work of reorganization, Mr. Dunlop, who is already In Victoria, is n chartered accountanl of continental repute with special experience in the federal public works department and In general practice, It was lie who reorganized the entire audit system of the province of New Brunswick in 1908—his work In that connection having proven most satisfactory indeed, and he has also been in close touch with the government of Ontario audit system, being generally regarded as the model for th« Dominion. Mr. Dunlop will co-operate and confer with Deputy Minister Goepel, Auditor-General Allison, the finance minister and the attorney- general during his stay in Victoria, and after completing his work at this c pital will visit all government offices throughout the province, reporting upon the business system therein obtaining with suggestions for its betterment. Mr. James McBraire Smilli, who retires from the high office of dap- Ottawa, March 28.—An attempt to censure the government was made last night. When a motion to go into committee of supply was moved, George W. Kytc, of Richmond, N.S., offered an amendment censuring the government for its attitude on the Landry case. The House defeated the Kyte amendment by a vote of S6 to 45. The opposition, in agreeing to the passage of supplies in lump, has expressed its willingness to pass upon one-sixth of the estimates, which is enough to keep things going till well on toward the end of June. Thai means complete abandonment by tho Liberals of the idea of an election this year. It Is significant that this was the first step taken on the return of the blockers from the Easter visit to their constituents. A change has come over the spirit of the blockers' dream, a change which prompts the Liberals to say that ihey have no do- siie io block the business of parliament and to admit that they cannot force a dissolution. This spells the wreck of the campaign carried on by the Liberal ex-ministers, who want to get back the seats of which their former constituents deprived them. Ex-ministers' counsel lias led the opposition up a Mind alley, and the Liberals in the House are now casting about 'for some way of setting out of the scrape with as .>tile display as possible. Mr. Pugsley and the ex-ministers have had to give place to the more moderate Libera] wing, and there is some change of progress being made with the business ol parliament without such changes in the rules as the continuance of the blockade would necessitate. Intentions of the government on the other hand have not changed in any degree. The naval aid bill Is to pass the House with or without a change of rules. BRITISH PARTIES When Question of Making Britain's Influence Felt In Europe the Opposition Is Ready to Assist the Government-Liberals In Canada Missed Opportunity to Follow Best Precedents Of Imperial House BENCHERS ELECTED. . The election for benchers of the Law Society of British Columbia resulted as follows: Messrs. R. T. Bllioli, K.C.; Li, G. McPhillips, K.C.; u. E. Corbould," K.C.; E. P. Davis, K.C.; W. Moresby, B. V.

Mexico City, .March 28.—It is reported here that the United Slates battleship Baltimore with four hundred soldiers aboard has sunk off Guaymas in the Gulf of California. The accident was the result of aii explosion. Tlie extent to which British foreign policy is removed from party conflict is exemplified by a declaration in ilie House of Commons when Kir Edward Grey and Premier As- (juith cordially acknowledged the co- operatl if the opposition in help- ins to make England's influence for peace supreme in the councils of Europe, says a despatch. Premier Asquith said: "There has never been a chapter In our history with so few discordant notes to eni- barass the direction of Britain's foreign policy. The government acknowledges the patriotic support which ihe opposition has given it." Simultaneously the papers in London publish evidence of the continued bickerings between the Liberals and the Conservatives in Canada on an equally vital Empire issue. It would admittedly be of enormous gain to British prestige if, even now, Canada's decision on the naval question could, to adopt a phrase which Premier Asquith used In reference to italkan affairs, "go forth to all concerned as the carefully considered judgment of the House of Commons, speaking with full authority as representatives of a united people." The dramatic feature of the European situaiion is the fact that after centuries of misgovernment and oppression and bloodshed, Turkey, for all practical purposes, quits Europe bj tne unanimous assent of the great powers. Tttrkej is merely left the wreck and the remnant of her empire in Europe, namely, the Dardanelles, Constantinople and the peninsula running up to the Enor- inidia line. Her future as an empire lies now In the consolidation of her territory in Asia .Minor, and it is to enable her to do this work effectively that the powers refuse to permit her to be squeezed into bankruptcy on a Bismarckian principle. o ■ MAY BE OLD MINE The Discovery of Gold at Teslin Lake Recalls Earlier Finds There.

That the gold discovery at the headwaters of the Swan River is really a re-discovery of a goldfleld twice found and twice lost already, is now believed by old millers in the Teslin Lake country, according to reliable information received from Atlin. Some years ago a prospector took several thousand dollars in dust and nuggets out of a creek in that territory and sold it to the mint at San Francisco. Never again, however, did lie or anyone else find the creek. In 1896 two men died who probably knew the secret. They had been in during the summer and attempted to run the Tiiku river. Their boat swamped and one man was drowned. The other reached Juneau after cachelng aboul twenty miles from .there sonic of the gold they had secured. He went Into the hospital and died six days later. The gold was found and an attempt was made to locate the creek from which it had come. The prospector had drawn a mail of the country, Imt years of searching failed to reveal the secret. An Indian who saw the map said that the seekers were always looking for the lake al the head of a creek, hut they never went up Moose Horn Creek, and the lake at the head of it is so enclosed i>y high mountains thai it could nol be seen until the traveler was on iis slimes. Las I summer a party outfitted at Atlin and wenl over to Moose Horn and Silver creeks and located claims. They found old lumber cuttings, an old whipsaw pit and the frames marking where two cabins had stood. A line of second-growth willow showed where there had been a ditch, There Is uvery probability, therefore, that the gold brought by the Indians who ram,- in to Atlin last October was taken from Die very cteeks twice discovered ami twice lost years ago The Indians re orded thirty i lalms ami displayed nearly ha'f a pound of gold.

He might have gone further and added that it had money to pay the acknowledged deficits and the unacknowledged deficits of the year be- foie. The statement of the finances of the year 1912 is not yet presented to i lie public. We do not know who is to blame for it, bm we certainly think it should be before the public. We have heard it whispered, however, that the actual deficit that will be shown from last year will probably mount up 10 between $40,000 and $50,000. If this be true ii must be acknowledged that there were some manipulations in the field of high •finance last year. INDISCREET ATTACKS. THE CLOSURE. As on many other questions of public policy, not excluding that of the naval situation, the policies of Sir Wilfrid Laurier in opposition and in power differ very materially on the matter of the application of a closure in the House. When met with opposition in the House Sir Wilfrid and his party were very strongly inclined to apply a closure. Now the leader of the Opposition holds his hands up in holy horror at the suggestion of such a move. Sir Wilfrid Laurier declares that the government persistently declined to make any change in the rules. Mr. Fisher, speaking as a member of Hie late government, made the following announcement on three different occasions. On August 1, 1911, at Waterloo, bo said: "If we are returned to power, we will pass reciprocity and we will also pass a measure changing the rules so that the business of Ihe country may go briskly forward without interruption. It is only right that Ii should lie so. Full Investigation we believe in. but. empty obstruction is a drag on the country." Speaking at Magog, on August 13, 1911, Mr. Fisher said: "So long as a small minority or any group can take up the time of Parliament in order to hear lliein- se'ves talk, it is impossible to avoid waste of time and I pledge thai if tho Laurier government Is returned again the rules will be changed. I consider present conditions inimical to the That excellent, and long-tried exponent of old school Liberalism, the Montreal Witness, admits that it cannot understand the attacks that are made on Mr. Winston Churchill. Quoting some language of Mr. Mac- donald of Pictou, the Witness asks: "Whatever does Mr. Macdonald mean? Had not Mr. Borden the right to ask for information on naval construction of those who ought to know the most on the subject? . . . If he had, Mr. Churchill had also not only the right but the duty, both as a self-respecting gentleman and a member of the government who holds a responsible position in trust for the nation, to make a careful and courteous reply." As to the reply itself, the Witness says: "It is not a political document, bul a letter of information written with the best intention, in a style that in parts shows signs of haste, and a discursiveness that proves it to be nicanl for a friendly exchange." The Witness then refers to a Montreal speech of Mr. Macdonald in which he spoke of Mr. Borden as a "vacillating man, unfit, to lead- a party, and as a man with feet of c'ay," and ends its note with the laconic remark that "every party has some friends from whose indiscretions it would like to be delivered."

According to private advices received, Willie Ritchie, world's lightweight boxing champion, and James Edward Britt, known as Jimmy Britt, when vainly struggling against Gans, Nelson and those other old- timers for the 133-pound crown, will be in Vancouver this spring. Britt is due for a week in vaudeville In April, while Ritchie is scheduled for an appearance in May. They will appear at one of the Vancouver playhouses. Ritchie has tired of the stage, or at least he says so at every opportunity, but the announcement that he will box for Vancouver vaudeville patrons in .May means that he is not yei llirough with the foot- ligliis. It also means that negotiations are not proceeding with smoothness for that proposed European tour. Likewise it might be construed that the San Franciscan will work his way home in May and then go into training for a championship fight about July 4. Britt, a mighty clever linxer in his prime, but lacking the strength and stamina necessary to win a championship, is said to be following in the footsteps of Jim Corbett —becoming a real actor. COME FROM SMALL TOWNS. "Most, of the star ball players," penned a magazine writer the cither ilny, "come from the corner lots of our big cities where they first began to play. They are big city products." All of which may be true, provided the term "big city" is defined as meaning any old place that lias at least 2411 Inhabitants, including cats and dogs. It was from such a city that Ty Cobb came—the busy and teeming metropolis of Royston, Gn. Christy Mathewson, the wizard of the New Vnrk Giants, came from that congested centre of population Factoryville, Pa.

Field Marshall Viscount Wolseley, one of the most famous ol' modern soldiers, died last Tuesday nt Men- tone, France, in his eightieth year. There were few lands in which Field Marshal Wolseley had not seen service, lie served in the second Burmese war in 1852, being severely wounded in the attack on Donabyu. A veteran of the Crimea, lie was one of the last to leave there and almost. Immediately joined the expedition toj China. At the relief of Lucknow lie took a prominent part, received a medal and clasp, and was present at the final siege and capture of Lucknow. Following his return home be was sent on special service to Canada in 1861. Made a Brevel colonel in 1S0r.. Colonel Wolseley was actively employed in the Fenian raids and in 1867 was appointed deputy quarter- nipiter-general in Canada. In 1870 Colonel Wolseley succesfully commanded the Red River expedition to put down a rising under Louis Riel at Fort Garry—now Winnipeg. When he returned home he was made a K. C.M.G. and C.B. From thai lime on he saw service in numerous campaigns. His command of the expedition to Aslianti on the Gold Coast made his name a household word in England. He fought the battle of Amoaful, and, after five days, fighting, ending witli the battle of Ordahsu, entered Kiimasi, which he burned. For this feat of arms Colonel Wolseley received the thanks of both Houses of Parliament and a grant of £25,- 000, being promoted lo a major-gen- eralship on the field. General Wolseley succeeded Lord Chelmsford in command ot the forces in the Zulu war and was made governor of Natal, the Transvaal and high commissioner of South Last Af- frica. Given command of the British forces in Egypt in 1862 he later commanded the Nile expedition to the relief of General Gordon and the besieged garrison nt Khartoum. The expedition arrived too late, Khartoum having fallen and Gordon being dead. In 1890 he was given command of the forces in Ireland and Inter succeeded the Duke of Cambridge as commander-in-chief of all the British forces, turning that over. lo Lord Roberts al the commencement of 1901, Witli Lord Roberts of Kandahar, and Lord Kitchener, Field marshal Wolseley formed a trio of the greatest military experts in the British Empire. Lord Wolseley was the autnor of numerous books dealing with army life as he saw it and his books hail great vogue. At the time of his deatli lie had nearly reached ihe advanced age of aO years.
