FIERCE FIGHTING ON THI BATTLE FRONT BRITISH POLITICAL CRISIS S A TIME The Germans Again Bombarding Nancy With Big Guns All Hope Has Been Abandoned For The Barque Callao All Hope Abandoned For Peruvian Barque Callao In Pacific Seattle, Jan. 8.—The local agent for the W. R. Grace & Company has abandoned all hope for the Peruvian barque Callao. She was last sighted in distress off Ucluelet, on the west coast of Vancouver Island, on the night of December 28. The company had communicated by wireless with all incoming steamers to watch for t: t Callao. No trace of the vessel has been found, and it is now believed she has foundered. The barque, when she was last seen, was dismasted. She was driven to sea before help could reach her, and although several other ships have come to the Straits of Juan de Fuca, since then nothing has been seen of the Callao. GERMANS HAVE BEEN BOMBARDING NANCY FOR THREE DAYS Paris, Jan. 8.—Six persons have been killed and ten wounded during the last three days, in the bombardment of Nancy. The Germans are using fifteen iijclt guns in their attacks. M& W. R. Taylor, of the G. T. P. service, who has been in the Vancouver ami San Francisco offices, will arrive shortly as assistant to G. A. Mc- Nlclioll, Assistant General Freight and Passenger Agent. Insure now with M. M. Stephens. Russian Official Report States That Decided Gain Made London, Jan. 8.—The battle continues between the Russians and the Austro-Gcrmans in Galicia. At Buko- wina the Russians claim further gains, while the Austrians maintain they are holding their ground. The Austrians have made a determined counter attack along the middle Stripa and northeast of Czerno- witz. According to the Russian official report, the Austrians were beaten back with enormous losses, while the Russians made distinct gains, occupying several Austrian positions and taking more than 1,300 prisoners. Mrs. Morte Craig has gone south on a visit. Open Wednesday and Saturday evenings, M. M. Stephens. For School Trustee Miss R. PI.

SAVE MONEY Use New Wellington COAL A LADY CANDIDATE FOR THE SCHOOL BOARD Miss R. M. Davies Is Offering Her Services As A School Trustee At The Coming Election. Among the candidates that will offer themselves at the forthcoming election, as school trustee, will be Miss R. M. Davies. This is the first occasion upon which there has been a lady candidate for the office in this city, but the election of ladies in other cities of the province on this board is not at all uncommon. Miss Davies, who has lived In this city for a considerable time, is eminently qualified for the position that she seeks to fill. She has devoted to the teaching and the care of children a number of years. For a time she was superintendent of the Indian (llrls Industrial School at. Metlakatla. That she is heartily interested in tho work is evidenced from the fact lhat she has devoted herself to the work of teaching, In many Instances at her own expense. DYER APARTMENTS FIRE.

Tho wise virgins had their lamps trimmed and burning. Be wise and insure with M. M. Stephens. Move Than Usual Interest Shown In The Coming Contest. Following a period of unusual calm, in connection with the muni- ipal campaign, there has suddenly arisen a decided interest in the coming contest, and instead of the usual small number of candidates, this coming election promises to see more than the usual number in the running. While the mayoralty contest Is now altogether likely to be confined to the present Mayor and M. P. McCaffery, the interest is beginning to be attached to the aldermen, who are abundant. Among these are a number of c'tizens who have not been in the council before, but among them are many who shoula make good members of the council. Robert Smith, who, as the head of the old firm of Smith & Mallett, plumbers of the city, is well known to all, decided yesterday, after considerable persuasion by friends, to consent lo run. Frank Clapp, who has very heavy interests in the city, also announced himself and is seeking election. Thomas McMeekin,, the wei) known grocer is in the field. George Munro, who has resided here for many years, and has followed the business of contractor, has decided to be a candidate ana is going into nomination. O. H. Nelson, editor of the Journal, has been inveigled into entering the contest, on a request that seemed to indicate a general desire. D. C. McRae, of McRae Bros stationers, has decided lo run, although at first withdrawing. W. Angle, one of the well known citizens who has taken a deep interest in the successive councils is running, in order to show what should be done at the council board. W. G. Barrie, whose connection with the city has been a long one, will be a candidale also. He belongs to the mechanical class, being employed in the warehouse of Georgo D. Tlte. It is expected that he will be endorsed by the Trades and Labor Council. There are a number in addition to these who are expetced to announce themselves before election day. There are several already In the Held, and soem of the old council thai have not yet announced themselves will be doing so it is said. , FIRE IN DYER BLOCK CHECKED IN TIME FINANCIAL STATE OF GERMAN EMPIRE NEW YORK SUN REVIEWS THE SITUATION WITH RESPECT TO THAT COUNTRY Ruin Seems To Stare Kaiser's Empire In The Face Now. Halibut Boats Again Arriving In Port After Holiday Season After the holiday season, fishing is will be unloadeu from the boats to- again beginning out of this port. Advantage is taken of the holiday season usually and the time immediate ly preceeding It and also following, t0 have a general overhauling of the boats. This is now about accomplished and the boats are out on the banks. In a very short time now, it is anticipated that there will be the usual number of boats coming into port again with their catches of halibut. Yesterday the monotony of the offseason was broken by the arrival in As the European war is not only a war of men with which to recruit wasting armies, but of material with which to replenish depleted supplies, and even more a war of money with which to finance the whole gigantic extravagance, anything which sheds light on the financial position of the belligerents helps to determine the posture of the conflict, says the New York Sun. There are special reasons why every fact which tends to illuminate the financial condition of Germany attracts special attention. The great mystery of the war is Germany's economic condition. The Central Powers still hold very clearly the military advantage on land, but while the experts are calculating the resources of the Teutonic Allies in terms of armies and territory occupied, the real battle of the war is being fought by forces which operate inexorably, although not, so much in the open. It Is material anil money, the munitions of war ana the commodities by which the non-combatant popul tion is supported, but above all money, which has most to be reckoned with in the prosecution of the struggle. The side to which the balance of advantage inclines in these respects, particularly in respect to money, has most in its favor in the continuation of the war. That Germany in this relation stands as well as it does in all the relations of military organization is more than doubtful. Taking monetary resources for carrying on the war to mean all the .apparatus of finance which can bo aevoted to mobilize accumulated and productive wealth, there have been few economists of any description who have been able to analyze satisfactorily Ihe relative strength of the belligerents in order to yield unde- batable conclusions. Nevertheless the! known or ascertainable facts have *****••*****♦•*•***** day when the vessels will get back to the banks. The men report that the fishing, while fairly gooa, was tinder trying conditions of cold weather. The boats were the Polaris, Capt. E. Erickson, and the Sitka, Capt. J. Joliannson. The prices paid for the catches were six cents and six and an eighth cents. The one sold to the Canadian Fish & Cold Storage Company and the other to tlie Atlin Fisheries. The crews of the vessels report port of two of the vessels from the ; that there were several of the fleet banks. These had each of them good on the banks, and there will be a catches of 75,000 pounds each, mak- number more arriving on the fishing ing a total of 150,000 pounds, that ground at any time now. Socialists Threaten i Strike In Coal Mines In Great Britain London, Jan. 8.—The British political crisis over conscription has su' sided for a lime at least. The ">ne3ition has gradually simmered down, as did the threatened revolt against the drink restrictions. The most radical section of the | labor men, particularly the Socialist j branch, talk of a strike among the coal miners, which would bring the wheels of industry to a standstill, and handicap the shipping industry which is the bean of the nation's life.

Henceforth it must be, not a divisive, but a unifying symbol. It is the. banner under which we must all he imperialists from now on, avowedly so, or declare ourselves recreant to our highest trusts, and unworthy of our history's brightest page, says the British Weekly. To cry down imperialism now as though it were the consort of militarism would be incorrgible stupidity if not unpardonable perversenese. During the last fifteen months the new imperialism has stood forth to strike down militarism once and for all and to champion the cause of international truth-keeping, brotherliness and' penr'?. '■ lie British Empire was not established, primarily, by the might of the sword, nor has it been sustained by military force. Legitimate, peaceful, commendable human impulses gave it birth, and spiritual bonds have held It together. With'her* unique and splendid insular position in the centre of the world, wooed by the ends of the earth, Britain from the first was barked for empire.

Department, of Public Works, Ottawa, December 23, 1916. Germany every trained observer knows who has tried to follow the involved processes by which the German Imperial Government has raised a dizzy structure of pyramided credit, or who has sought to calculate the consequences without repi.rd for the official explanations of German finance, notably the explanations offered by the financial secretary, Helf- ferich, which have "ecu so obviously designed for the comfort of the German people. It begins lo look more an more, however, as though Germany had reached u stage of economic impairment which was forcing Involuntary confessions 'hat all was not going nearly as well with Teutonic finances as had been represented, and that a military situation on which u world umpire might, In a cosmic Kriegspiel, award a decision to the Central Powers was perhaps more than offset by rapidly growing financial weakness. There is a new note In the addresses which Dr. Helfferich Is making to expound the new war budget and invoke support for the programme of war expenditure. In the last few months rumors of the skyscraping cost on living in Germany have indicated that commodities were expressing a mounting premium on gold, despite edicts proscribing tlie quotation of German paper credits at any discount from gold. In the same way the foreign exchange have been telling of the debasement and debility of Germany's monetary system. We have seen here, in tlie last few weeks alone, the discount on the German mark carried from fifteen to almost twenty per cent. The discount has been still larger in Holland, with which Germany maintains closer business relations than with any other country. At the same time, the principal exchanges of the Allies have shown, in the firmer recovery of some stability for sterling and francs, a strengthening derived from an increasingly effective mobilization of British and French wealth. And now comes Dr. Helfferich talking to the German people through the Reichstag about taxes which are going to be colossal. As late as last August Dr. Helfferich was discussing war finance in the language of an avoidance of taxation. There was a hint that some heavier burden of taxation must be expected, but he was still able to conjure up a vision of enormous indemnities to be paid by Germany's enemies which would be compensation for all the financial sacrifices of the German people during the war. The whole German scheme of war finance was founded on discounted indemnities, although nobody outside of Germany can see any prospect that Berlin and Vienna will ever have it in their power to make a peace involving the exaction of money in any form from their present foes. But Ihe references to indemnity which the German financial secretary makes as yet arc only incidental. Tho change which is coming over Germany is all summed up in bis efforts to prepare Ihe Kaiser's subjects for the taxation which tlipy niusi endure henceforth. Probably when the time arrives to take up the budget, after Ihe one now under consideration all talk of Indemnities will have ended and some pi ogress will have been made In answering the question which Gorman Socialists seem to be hinting at, as lo Whether or nol Germany is goiii'-' bankrupt.
