Another Warm Time DevaUps, Whlah I* Huffily Knjssyesl br th* Mnny Spectators 1'reseat-Caurt of Ilavlaloa oa Monday Morning Nest. Regular wssokly meeting of the city council was held on Monday evoning, all the memlierH lieing present. A big crowd of spectators was also present, in anticipation of a warm time developing over the early closing bylaw. In this tliey were uot disappointed, for the situation certainly did approach the torrid. Aid. Arnot, at the outset, objected to tho minute*!, insofar as they dealt with the early closing bylaw. He had not ss'csinded an amendment for the clerk to again circulate the original petition among the merchants, but rather the proposed amendment to the bylaw. They had the petition duly signed and there was uo newssity to again circulate it. The minutes were wrong. Tho clerk said he had understood thc resolution just as he had written it dowu. Aid. Arnot interpolated that the ni 'ivlunts had all read the petition liefore they signed it. Mayor Vork said there had been much discii.-hion at the time the amendment was introduced, hence the confusion. He wanted a more general expression of feeliug ou the bylaw, so had moved in committee to have the petitiou again circulated. Clerk sBeutlcy stated he would not have had any right to circulate an ameudment to a bylaw. Aid. Teeter understood the situation just as the clerk aud mayor had ex plaiued it. Aid. Worden thought the discussion at the last meeting had ariseu over the won presence of the petition. The resolution was for the clerk to again circulate the petition, with the bylaw attached. He saw nothing wrong iu the miautes. Aid. Arnot maintained that th<* clerk was to have acted on tlie amendment, not on the original petition. He refuted Aid. McNeish's remarks at last meetiug that the signatures to the petition had beeu wrongfully olitained. He stated that Aid. McNeish had either not told the truth or had misunderstood the words of the signers. Aid. Smith said the aldermen were all out of oider, as the point under discussion was whether the minutes were right or not. Aid. McNeish reviewed his remarks at last meeting. "Mid he understood the bylaw should accompany the petition. A motion that the minutes Ik; signed as read was carried, Aid. Arnot voting nay. Correspondence read: From license commissioners, asking that a bylaw be pi*sss*-"d in accordance with section 202 of the Municipal Clauses Act, dealing with the mode of .prc-r-eedure for the renewal of licenses. The secretary was present and explained what was wanted. Referred to the city solicitor for an expression of opinion. The clerk then stated he had circulated the petition for the early closing bylaw, it showing the original signers iu favor of it.while immediately lielow the majority of the petitioner* had signed no. Finance committee reported in favor of bills amounting to $38.85. Ordered paid. Bills presented: Payroll for April $146.66; additional grant to the school board of $40, making $190 for the month. Both ordered paid, It was announced that the court of revision would assemble next Monday morning at 10 o'clock. The clerk stated he had liecn delayed in sending letter to the eduei*,- tion department relative to lion-ri-si- dent pupils, he not having obtained all the necessary information. He would get it all together this week and forward same to the department. Next came the much -tai Ited-of early closing bylaw. It being found that there were uow not three-quarters of the merchants in favor of the bvlaw. there was uo call uow for its introduc tion. Aid. McNeish rose and stats*-! that he believed all tho merchants had not even yet thoroughly studied the proposed bylaw. He replied at length to Aid. Arnot's strictures on ssiino of tlie signers of the petition, maintaining his original position. Mayor York said none of the mer chants were aware of the nature of the bylaw when they signed for it. However, he did not wish to take any part in the affair, as he closed his place any way at 6 o'clock. He advised tho merchants affected to get together aud fix the matter up. Aid. Arnot asserted the bylaw was drawn up .according to the statutes, Thero was no use haviug a bylaw, if merchants wens allowed to serve CUaV tomers nfter hours K ■ ' •\ to inijio.se a hai . chants of tbe town wore like a lot of old women,as they did not know their own minds two minutes together. All he wanted was a uniform closing hour. If the merchants did not know their own minds, then the bylaw had better be dropped. John Bull was here given permission to address the council. He was one of those who had signed for the bylaw, but he would like to see a provision made in it whereby a customer could lie served after hours if need lie. He also resented Aid. Arnot's remarks of people not knowing their own minds. The speaker had signed no tbe second time, for he wanted no hardship worked on him. Aid. Smith did not want the bvlaw going through as it was,but an amendment to sell after hours would kill it. Aid. Arnot was acting iu good spirit in bringing iu the bylaw. Several of the merchants, however, had said that they had signed the petition without reading it. Their now signing the other way showed them to lie very changeable. He favored putting the bylaw in the waste basket for an indefinite period. Aid. Teeter found no fault with the signers for the bylaw. The move was all right, but the law too binding. Ho moved that the early closing bvlaw lie indefinitely postponed. .Seconded by Aid. MeNeish. Aid. Worden moved in amendment that the bylaw bo immediately qua-died. Aid. Arnot seconded the amendment, because the merchants did not know their own minds. He warned all merchants against selling goods in future on holidays, for he certainly would have the law on them. "If thoy sell anything on a legal holiday, then let them look out for my smoke." Aid. McNeish again rose to the defence of the merchants, and named certain parties as examples of those who changed their minds. "Put the bylaw iu the waste basket." Amendment put and carried, Aid. Teeter holdiug out for his motion. Aid. Teeter and Smith moved the filing of the petition. AM. Worden again loomed up with an amendment that it be put in the fire; seconil-*d by AM. Arnot. aid. Teeter closed another Wrangle by insisting that no document coming before the council could lie treated in that way, so the amendment was withdrawn and the motion carried Adjournment. TWO IMPOKTANT STIUKK4. Arlington and Speculator Botla Break Into Ora. J. Frank Colloin.managing director of the Arlington and Speculator properties, returned to Slocan ou Tuesday, but would give out nothing for publication regarding the advancement of the experiments on the Arlington ore. now lieing conducted at Spokane. However, he intimated, as he has done so before, that everything was all right and satisfactory. In other iiiattt*rs,though,Mr. Collom was not so reticent, and, when asked, continued the reports of recent strikes on both the Speculator and Arlington. On the former the loug tunnel has broken into a most encouraging body of ore. It is six foot in width, there being five iuches of rich ore on either side of a five foot body of concentrating matter. The two "smaller streaks are very rich, carrying much native silver and sulphides, while the central liody is expected to prove of winning aud lasting quality. Altogether, it constitutes the licst thing yet encountered in the mine, during its three years of steady development. The long tunnel is in close to 3000 feet and has penetrated the Speculator aud Speculator fractional claims and is now well iuto the Mineral Mountain claim. Ou the Arlington a splendid body of sulphide ore, one foot in width, was tapped in A tunnel, almut 2600 feet from the mouth of tho drift and at 370 foet depth. It wus cut on May 1, just at the time when Messrs. Williamson, of San Francisco, aud Burns, of Portland, were visiting the property, so coming at a most opportune time. Though smaller -tones have been encountered iu A, this strike is tho first permanent chute cut, and it prove* ix'vond question that the immensely rich and important bodies of ore open - i*l up in B tunnel are carrying well with depth. These two strikes are a source of j grout satisfaction to the management, and are distinctly gratifying to tin- whole camp, as proving the permanency of its two premier properties. Work At Us,* Ottawa. Just now there aro but seven men employed at the Ottawa and the majority of them nre on contract work.

In fact, the face of the drift at present has encouraging signs and a chute may be tapped any day. Once cut, there will be large reserves to work on. CLARK va. COLLOM. Settlement Has Been KITested In This Celebrated Case. A settlement out of court has lieen effected in the celebrated case of Clark vs Collom, arising out of the sale of the Arlington mine to the present company. J. K. Clark, of New Denver, the plaintiff, entered suit against J. Frank Collom for 80,000 shares iu the company, valued at $24,000, claiming that as nis portion in the promotion of the deal. The ease has occupied the attention of the British Columbia courts for tho past three years and has been aired in all the principal cities.being adjourned or delay-**I from a formal hearing upon some preliminary motion or cause upon overy occasion. It was finally set for jury trial at Rossland on Tuesday, but on Saturday the plaintiff's lawyers made overtures for a settlement, which were Tiuickly accepted. The basis for withdrawal of the suit waa the payment of $2000, covering the plaintiff's foes to his counsel to date, while those of the defendant were upwards of .$3000. W. A. McDonald, K.C., Nelson, and E. P. Davis, K.C., Vancouver, two of the leading lawyers in the country, had the charge of the defendant's tide of the case. By this settlement the last of the many suits in which the Arlington has figured has been cleared awav and the property is enjoying a well- earned tranquility. The Clark-Collom case has l>eeii one of the most noted ever entered in the west, as it was through passing strictures on the British Columbia judiciary sitting on it that Wm. Mac- Adams, of the defunct Sandon Paystreak, spent a short timo in the Victoria jail for contempt. The Mac- Adams' conviction threatened to become a national question, but it has quietly dropped out of sight, though some stirring scenes wore witnessed at the time. Cssnsblnntloa (lets the Ledge. On Sunday Al Teeter and Martin Isaacson, the owners of the Combination, situated eMse to the old bridge on Springer creek, stnick the ledge in their crosscut and have broken into some line ore. The ledge is exposed in two upper workings and each had ore. The present level was theu started, close down tothe crock, but it was difficult to get the lay of the ground, owing to the heavy wash. The owners had to drift tlirough 35 feet of wash before cutting bedrock, which was penetrated some distance and then the crosscutting commenced. A westerly direction was followed, but with no success. This spring the owners decidi*d to drift east, and in 10 feet the footwall was penetrated and the ore cut. The drift will lie pushed across to the hanging wall, the ledge being 40 feet in width. A grab sample of ore from above gave 137 oz silver aud $6 gold, and thc new find is even lietter. The owners will work the property steadily, as it is most advantageously situated. Tag Hanslen Again Banning. As explained two weeks ago,the idle days of the tug Sandon were few, as she has again been placed in commission. Capt. Mat Roid, formerly mate ou the Slosjau and more recoiitlv on the Kokanee, came in on Saturday's train with a crew, aud immediately got up steam on the tug, taking out a barge that afternoon. It is the intention to keep the vessel in regular coin- mission. Slls.es- Quotation*.

It appeared that I'utsin son had left the house on Thirty- eigbtb street immediately after Alden's departure, which he bad viewed with every indication of Intense and painful e»' lenient. No obstacle was put ln the way of his departure when he desired to go; but an unobtrusive young man of Captain Neale's retinue walked upon the other side of the street- Robinson did not see this young man—which is sometime* a great misfortune for the per* •on thu* attendt*d—but it happened, in this Instance, that after a considerable amount of peslestrlan eiercise of a •eemlugly aimless sort the young man did not see Robinson, and this was undoubtedly a serious misfortune for the "shadow." He was roundly sworn at by his superior, when, after a fruitless search, he was obliged to aunounce his failure to that individual. He did not do this, of course, until be had waited a long time ln front of the bouse where Robinson lived. Had Robinson returnesl there tbe "shadow" would have given, ln his subsequent report, a full statement covering every detail of Boblnson'i movement*) and every minute of tho time, and would cheerfully have sworn to lt ln court bad later events made such a processing iieci'Ssary. But, falling to "pick ! np" Robinson, there was no escape | from confession.

Elmendorf had no idea that Robinson j bad "skipped," principally because j there was no apparent reason for lt. to! Elmendorf replied thnt bis advices were altogether favorable, and little more was said until they had entered Alden's private office, in which Robinson bad a desk.

"My dear sir," said Elmendorf, "In a case s.f tbls kind, wheu a man begins to lie. it's always important. I happen to know that you haven't had a letter come to that house since you've been living there, so you didn't go up town to get one.

Jack," b* said and added when Robinson bad left the room, "Do you mean to say there's another one?" "Sure," returned Elmendorf. "on* for trouble and one for business. 1 don't kuow why I tell you these thing*. except that I hate Neale. He wants to know where you were yesterday, and he thinks you'll go there again. He expect* you to throw tbe man with th* grip and never notice the other one," "I'll remember this, Elmendorf," said Alden. "It's a gift," replied tbe detective. "As for that, you've paid me already wltb the Informution that you don't use a blotter. Good morning. I'll see you biter in the day." It may bave been about half an hour afterward when he presented himself at the house where John Hoblnson lived aud Introduced himself to the landlady thereof, with the result that he was presently ushered up two flights of stairs to a large room at the rear of the house. I-eft alone there, ho remarked to himself, "i his doesn't seem to go against me so much s* it usually does." Then he proceeded t* examine the personal effects of Mr. Robinson. The examination was thorough, but tha product was singularly meager. He discovered an envelope containing some pawnbroker's tickets, slewing loan* upon a watch, a winter evercuat and a ring of small value, and in a wsste paper basket a part of an envelope which bad been addressed to some person In Philadelphia, but the name was missing. Remembering that Robinson had tbougbt of I'hlladelphla Urst when groping about for a falsehoosl, the latter discovery assumed some Utile Importance as a guide for subsequent Investigation. The particular object of tbe detective's search eluded him, bowever, and when he left thc house be was far from satisfied with bis luck. "I thought I knew wby Robiuson went borne," he said, "but either I didn't sr he changed bis mind." He spent some hours In verifying Robinson's statement about the place where he had passed the night rind !□ attempting to ascertain the young man's favorite haunts and tbe names of bts companions. Th* verification was easy, but the search for the man's associates yielded little. Apparently Robinson had not a wide circle of acquaintances. Returning to the lower region* of th* city, Einieiniorf encountered a b!l of better fortune in learning thai Bol i sou had visited his place of employment on the previous uay benvecu o und ti o'ctaek. "If he's the man." reflecte-d the detective, "he took tbat money home, and then, not Boding a satisfactory pl***1 t > hide it, he brought It down acre, liy the everifistl*|fl*sT. lie must have had It tu his pocket right there In Elsie .Millers room!

While not presuming to violate state secrets, The Dull ventures to assert ' that the Arlington ore experiments axe ' & success and that the big mill will be built this summer. You can bank on that. On Monday the legislature merely assembled to adjourn again till the "20th, by which time the investigation into the Columbia & Western land grant scandal should be concluded. 'SirThomas Shaughnessy and other C.P.R. officials are en route from Mon treal to tell what they know about the deal, and it promises to be spicy. sSo • far as the investigation has gone, the land grant scheme wreaks with perfidy, and the political reputations of a ' couple of the ministers are badly tar ' nished. An early dissolution of the house is a certainty. Tbe Drill this week contains a number of items of a most encourag- ' ing nature for the camp, the more important being those describing the ' strikes on the Speculator, Arlington and Combination. Those are the kind • of stories that bear repeating and will have influence on the outside. Satisfactory as tbe strikes are to the own- •era of the respective properties, the more so are they to the numberless prospectors owning claims in this dry ore belt. Encouragement has been - given the prospector- confidence imparted to business circles,and increased lustre added to the already good name of the camp. James Dunsmuir is realizing that his struggle with the Western Federation of Miners is no child's play, and is entirely different from anything he has yet experienced. He must needs learn his lesson and he will be a wiser man when he gets through with the fun. An organization of 4000 local - members and an international treasury of $2,000,000 is no easy combination ' to tackle, even with Dunsmuir's pilo. In the meantime coast folk are exper iencing -the raw edge of the struggle in that buainess is interrupted, coal is ' going up in price, and the Vancouver Island smelters shutting down for lack of coke. Public sympathy will be estranged from Dunsmuir, for the peoplo love not a tyrant who denies his workmen the simple right to or- ' ganize, no other question being invol v- ' ed. Dunsmuir will lose. A alight stir is to be noticed in poli tical circles in the Slocan riding, the ' movement emanating from Conservative circles. It is given emphasis by the fitct that the Sandon Mining Review issues a pronouncement in favor of W. S. Drewry, of New Denver, as the party candidate in the next provincial election. There has been a feeling right along that Mr. Drewry had political aspirations and it may be taken for granted that he is going to 'have a shy at the candidature. Just 'the same it would have been wiser for him to have awaited his chances at a properly called -sonventiou of the party and not try to force matters. The Conservatives possess strength in the riding, but ft behooves the party to select the strongest candidate possible to ensure victory at the polls,and Mr. Drewry is not the only available material offering. As once before re 'marked by this paper, this end of the lake must be reckoned with, and it is just possible a dark horse may gather .in the sweepstakes. DRILL POINTS. Pay tbe printer.

One by one the manufacturers of well known American specialties are realizing the present and prospective value of the Canadian business field and are establishing branch factories in this country. One of the latest concerns that has invaded Canada i.s the Goodrich Polish Co., of Campliel- lo, Mass., who have just completed a very up-to-date shoe polish plant on St. Genevieve street, iu Montreal.
