S. Co. that the loss of life would reach 1300. It is-now seerr that the loss goes a little over 1600. The Senate of the United States are pioceeding with an investigation at which all the surviving officers of the -Titanic and some of the men are being detained. The leading points of the investigation thus far are that the captain was driving the ship at full speed with the hope of establishing a new record and that they had received warning from two separate sources that there were icebergs in the locality where the ship struck. It is also told by survivors that there were no searchlights being used and no extra lookout. The only thing by way of precaution was that the ship had been steered 60 miles further south than the usual course irr order to avoid icebergs. It was further shown that the ship had not struck the iceberg full on which would have resulted in the destruction of only the forward bulkheads but had been given a glancing blow which enabled the iceberg to rip open the plates along a large portion of the side and rendered so many of the wa*rer-light. bulkheads useless that any remaining bulkheads there might have been were unable to keep her afloat, and she went down by the head. The conduct of the officers and crew after the accident was, however, most commendable in the bravery and unselfishness it displayed and in this respect-they atoned in a great measure for the fool hardiness and lack of care which brought on the disaster. Neither was their'conduct better in this respect than thai of the passengers. The captain's call to his crew through the megaphone, "Be British" appealed to the Anglo-Saxon that was in the passengers as well, and while there were women or children aboard who were willing to take their place in the boats no men tried to displace them. The men who were saved were taken into the boats only after all the women except those who would not leave their husbands were takerr oil'. Only two men among the Canadians were saved. One of these got in because he was required to man a boat and the other accompanied his wife after there were no other women to be saved. Major Peuchen's narrative censures the officers very much for the carelessness which brought on the disaster- arid tells of incompetence on the part of some of the ship's crew who were manning the lifeboats. Colonel Grade told how he was driven to the topmost deck and jumped just before her final plunge has passed. "1 jumped with the wave," said Colonel Grade, "just as I often have jumped with the breakers at the seashore. By great good fortune I managed to grasp the brass railing on the deck above, audi hung on by might and main. When the ship plunged down I was forced to let go and I was swirled around and around for what seemed to be air indeterminable time. DOWN WITH THIS SHIT "After the sinking of the ship it appeared to me as if I were propelled by some great force through the water, this might have been occasioned by explosions under the water. I recall that I was most fearful of being boiled to death. I reached the surface after a time that seemed unending. , There were dying men and women all about me groaning and crying pitcously. Prior1 to his departure for London on Sunday last, Hon. Mr. McBride, as minister of mines, concluded his consideration of the testimony taken at tho coroner's inquiry into the circumstances of the recent deplorable disaster at the collieries of the Diamond Vale Coal company, near Merritt, the verdict of the jury sitting at Merritt, and the subsequent special reports of the provincial mineralogist, Mr. W. Fleet liobertson, and the chief inspector of mines, Mr. Thomas Graham. It is understood that the government will at an early date institute proceedings against the colliery company under. the Coal Mines Regulations Act, but not for manslaughter under the criminal law. The result of the minister of mines' investigations, with his memoranda thereon, is now obtaining the consid- eeation of the attorney general, to whom the matter has been referred for subsequent ac tion. GRAND MASTER'S VISIT Hedley Masons Honored by Presence of Chief Executive of the Order in B. C. PROGRESS ON THE G.T.P. Ottawa, April 17.���������Mr. Collingwood Schrieher, chief consulting engineer for the Dominion government, has just returned from a tour of inspection over the most recently constructed portion of the G. T. P. main line in the West. He was as far west as Tete Jaime Cache, which is fifty miles west of Yellowhead Pass. In conversation with representatives of the press this morning, Mr. Schrieher stated that the Grand Trunk is now completed to a point 278 miles west of Yellowhead Pass. Track has been laid from Prince Rupert 16-1 miles eastward. This leaves a gap of 490 miles still to be'construct-, ed. ' ' ' Mr. Schrieher remarked en the fact that the line, so far built in British Columbia represents the most difficult of mountain construction. By the end of the present month thirty-five more miles will be graded on the section this side of Tete Jaime Cache, while on the section east of Prince Rupert grading is being done to a distance of 2-15 miles east ��������� >f Prince Rupert. Mr. Schrieher* reports that labor conditions are unsettled in the northern part of British Columbia, although conditions are better than they were a year ago. Capt. Bernier, of the steamer Arctic has been suspended pending investigation of the charges made against him and certain members of his crew who were accused of engaging in fur trade with the natives of the Arxjtic regions. "Aerate-like block of wood floated within my grasp and I grabbed it. However. I saw an overturned boat a short distance away and swam to it. "On this raft���������it was really a collapsible boat that was called a. raft��������� there already were lying more than twenty, men who seemed to heloni? to the Titanic crew. Two men, one in the how and the other in the stem* propelled us through the wreckage with pieces of wood which answered for urn s. For the first time since the lodge was organized seven years ago Hedley Lodge of-A. F. & A. M. had the honor of entertaining the Grand Master of the Masonic Grand Lodge of British Cairrrnbia. The distinguished brother came in from the Boundary and was accompanied by Past Grand Master, H. N. Rich, and Grand Senior Warden John M. Rudd. Unfortunately their time was limited, for the Grand Master, who is business manager for the Vancouver Province newspaper is too bus}' a man to remain a.w.iy longer than is absolutely necessary, and consequently was unable to stay here as long as the brethern iir Hedley would have liked. On Friday, * the day of their arrival, they were taken up the tramway to see the Nickel Plate mine and had the advantage of being shown over the mitre by general superintendent, G. P. Jones, who piloted the party. It was a new experience to all of the visitors and they appeared to enjoy it very much. In the evening the Grand Master and suite met the members of the. lodge and went very thoroughly into1 the work and standing of the lodge pointing out wheie improvement could he made ami offering most valuable suggestions. Orre most desirable end to which he has1 drawn the attention of all the lodges in the province is that of making adequate provision for the safe keeping <_)f the records of the lodge and their preservation from danger of fire by having some fireproof receptacle. That his visit cannot fail to prove of great value to the lodge is evident to all for he has the faculty of communicating much erf his own enthusiasm and zeal to those with whom he may come in contact in his official capacity. The Grand Lodge of British Coluiri bia have ever set a very high standard for its officers arrd particularly the occupants of the Grand Master's chair and that high standard is well sustained by-the present incumbent. He is the first Grand Master, who in visiting the lodges of the jurisdiction has made it his business to see that Hedley lodge shall form part of his itinerary, and in the two officers of Grand Lodge who accompanied him we have the present, the past, and the future; for, while Past Grand Master Rich was unable to visit us during his term of office, he has made ample amends for the omission by accompanying the Grand Master on this occasion. After closing of the lodge a banquet was spread and done ample justice to as might well be expected after the more or less arduous labors of the fore part of the evening. The toast list presented by W. Bro. S. E. Hamilton, the Master of the lodge, was somewhat shorter than usual on such occasions, but in view of the fact that there were three noted visitors to respond to that of the Grand Lodge it made up in interest and throughness what it lacked in length. The toasts THE STRIKE SITUATION Railway Construction at Hope-A month's Delay is Net Result of Strike The West Yale Review of last week has the following on the C. N. R. strike: "By noon to-day all the station men on the C. N. R. construction between Hope and Yale will be at work. Except at Camp, 12.all were at.work on Friday. The bottom has fallen out of the strike, the strikers are tired of short commons and mock-court discipline and would gladly return to work. The net result to tire contrac- tractors will be a net delay of about a month. The activities of the provincial police has restored normal conditions practically from Hope to Kamloops. The strikers are still numerous but are getting tired of their soup kitchens and would like to get wages again to spend as they please. The bridge gang arrived at Hunter- Creek Tuesday night and are now at work with the span over Silver Creek. The track-laying crew is beginning its advance eastward from" Cheain towards Hope. West, from Cheain to Port Mann, there is now a, well ballasted road, material for this work having been taken from the gravel pit at Cheain during the past few weeks' delay. The slide has now been thoroughly cleared away, the slight trouble over a right of way and compensation at Popcurn has been straightened out. and there is no obstacle between the end of the track and Hope. The probabilities now are that the track will reach Hope about the middle of May. Ocean THE INEVITABLE EFFECT Blow in Travel Receives Severe the Titanic Disaster Wrnnipeg, April ISth.���������Terrified by the fate that overtook the Titanic, warranted by the shipping agents proof against all hazards of the sea, a number of Winnipeg people are cancelling steamship reservations made befoie the catastrophe. A local steamship agent says his company, which is not connected directly with the tragedy, is losing a lot of eastbound business from western Canada. A KOOTENAY MINING SCHOOL- Till-: RAFT FL'I'.I. "Presently the raft became so full that it seemed she would sink if more came aboard, and the crew, for self- preservation had to refuse to permit others to climb aboard. "Hold on to what you have, old boy, we shouted to each man who tried to get aboard. 'One nior-e of you aboard will sink us all." "And many whom we refused shouted as they went to the death, "good luck and God bless you'. "And so we passed the night, with the waves washing over us and buried in water under our feet. "Long before light we stood in columns, two deep back to back, balancing ourselves, fearful to move lest the delicate balance should be disturbed and all of us thrown again into the water. The hand of God seemed to have soothed the sea. and it was calm when we first saw the twinkling lights of the Curpathiu. We recognized her as our rescuer. Concluded on Page Four. were "The King and the Craft" to which all responded by singing "God Save the King." "The Grand Lodge of British Colunibir" brought excellent helpful addresses from the Most Worshipful Grand Master and the Past Grand Master and Grand Senior Warden. "Pioneers in Masonry" was responded to by Bros. Brass, Cameron and Megraw. The remaining toast was that of "Visiting Brethern" which brought in some lesident Masons who have not yet affiliated with the lodge here, while the Junior Warden's toast and "Aulii Lang Syne" brought a very pleasant evening to a close. SHE IS GETTING THERE Woman is Raised to the Bench in Australia. Nelson, B. C. April 16.���������The announcement made here on Thursday night by Hon. H. E. Young, Minister- of Education, when waited upon by a representative joint delegation asking for the initiation of a mining school for the Kootenay, that the government would consider arranging courses of lectures for prospectors and others interested in mining if an attendance of fifteen students could bo guaranteed, is being actively takennp- The terms imposed by the minister are regarded as ridiculously easy of fulfilment, and the opinion is general that an attendance of fifty or over could be guaranteed for a winter course. It is a notorious fact that the money sent out of the Kootenay annually for correspondence courses in mining subjects would support an entire staff of instructors. There is no doubt but that the provincial government will be invited to act on the minister's tentative promise, and establish such a course at this city. NOT CATCHING ON Home Rule Receives Rebuff at Hands of Electors of Nottingham Melbourne, Australia, April 18th.��������� Nancy Isaacs, daughter of Justice Isaacs, has been raised to the bench of the Australian Commonwealth high court and will be her father's judicial associate. The appointment is regarded as the world's greatest triumph for women lawyers. In Great Britain and some of the great self-governing colonies women have not yet achieved admittance to the bar. London, April 19.���������The East Nottingham by-election caused by the retirement through illness of Capt. Morrison, resulted in a Unionist majority of 1,501. The figures are: Sir- John Ress, Unionist, 6,482; T. AV. Dobbson, Liberal. 5,158. This is the first by election in which home rule was made the leading issue and the result of the contest was anxiously looked forward to by the leaders of both parties as an indication of how the question of the hour is looked on by the provincial electors. Vancouver comes second in the list of building permits in Canada for month of March. Toronto is the only other city ahead of her.

Titanic disaster oir the tendency to increase the size of the ships seems a very prevalent error on the part of many papers! There is really no good reason we can see for coining to that conclusion. It was not the size of the Titanic but the speed at which she was being driven and the lack of proper vigilance and care that was at fault. Long immunity from mishap is almost sure to breed slackness, and if the increase in size could in any way contribute to the direful result it was in the greater feeling of security the larger vessel inspired, which might induce a reckless captain to relax his vigilance. Common carriers require constant supervision and it is the duty of all governments to see that the supervision will be both competent and constant. How the British Board of Trade which had the responsibility of .seeing that all passenger ships carry ample life-saving equipment for the number of passengers, should have s-lifped up in this matter seems strange, but nevertheless they did. The three most urgent safeguards would appear to be compulsory use of searchlights after nightfall, the carrying of ample number' of life boats and an efficient system of wireless telegraphy with an ample number 'of operators to relieve one another.

All these improvements help out in beautifying the town. The West Yale Review, published at Hope, announces the return to that place of James Corrigan after his stay in the hospital in New Westminster. 'It further states that D.

Thursday night the Tom Marks Company will appear in Fraternity Hall when one of the wittiest and most laughable comedies Will-be presented ''HisTrish Honor'". The play' gives each and every player a large scope for some clever acting and the comedy end, which to a large extent is handled by Mr. Marks, is something out Of'the ordinary, making, as it does one continuous laugh from the rise of the curtain on the first act to the fall of the curtain on the last act.' It is' not -for us to say "that it could not be! in better hands',' as we all kno\y "Tom"; Mr. Marks is one of the most popular comedians on the American stage and by the interest already taken by the1 theatre-goers of Hedley we predict a: full house Thursday night to welcome to Hedley the very .popular and re-j liable comedian, Tom Marks, and his excellent company. Many noteworthy vaudeville numbers are introduced between the nets,- which greatly -add to the pleasure of the evening. ���������'-*������������������- EXCLUDE HAWAII FRUIT KEEP YOUR EYES ON CAMP HEDLEY WATCH IT GROW It is destined to be the Greatest Gold Mining Camp in Canada.

April 19.--The cannery company.has completed the purchase of the greater portion of block C for their factory arid yards. The plot of land is over an acre in extent and has a frontage on Okanagan lake, Penticton creek and Ellis street. The machinery has been ordered from Chicago and the factory will be in operation for this year's crop. This move upon the part of the company seems to have put new life into the fruit industry in the district, assuring the growers, as it does, of a splendid market for their second grade and soft fruit which they cannot ship.

"The Marconi operator���������-one of the 37) on the raft, confirmed our hopes by saying that he knew it was the Car- path ia. Colonel Gracic denied with emphasis ' that any men were fired upon and declared that only once was a revolver discharged in the air. "This was for the purpose of intimidating some steerage passengers," he said. "There was. do confusion and ho panic". "Before I retired," said Colonel Gracie, "I had a long chat with Mr. Charles M. Hays, president of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railroad. "One of the last things Mr. Hays said was this: 'The White Star, the Cunard and the Hamburg-American lines are devoting their attention and ingenuity in vicing with each other to attain the 'supremacy in luxurious ships and in making speed records. The time will come when this will be capped by some appalling disaster.' "Poor fellow, a few hours later he was dead." "The conduct of Colonel .John Jacob Astor was ��������� descrying of the highest praise," Colonel Gracie declared. ,"The millionaire New'Yorker," he said "devoted all his 'energies to saving his young bride who was in delicate health.' "Colonel Astor helped us in our efforts to get her into the boat. I lifted her into the boat and as she took her place Colonel Astor requested permission of the second officer to go with her for her own protection. " 'No sir-,' replied the officer, 'not a. man shall leave on a boat until the women are all oft'. "Colonel Astor then enquired the number of the boat which was being lowered away and turned to the work of clearing other boats arid reassuring the frightened and nervous women. "By this time the ship began to list frightfully to port. This became so bad that the second officer ordered everyone to rush to the starboard side. Thej' did this and found the crew trying to get a boat off in that quarter." Colonel Gracie said that despite the warnings of icebergs no slowing down of speed was ordered by the.commander of the Titanic. There were other warnings too, he said. "In the twenty-four hours' run ending the 14th,"he said "the ship's run was 510 miles and then we Avere told that the next twenty-four hours would see oven a better record posted. "No diminution of speed was indicated in the run, and the engines kept up their steady running. When Sunday evening came, we all noticed the increasing- cold, which gave plain warning that the ship was in close proximity to icebergs or ieefieids. "The officers, 1 am credibly informed, had been advised by wireless frorii other ships of the presence of the icebergs and dangerous Hoes in that vicinity. The sea was as smooth as glass, and the weather clear, so it seems that there was no occasion for fear. A young English woman who requested that her name be omitted, told a thrilling story of her experience in one of the collapsible boats, which had been manned by eight of the crew from the Titanic. The boat was in command of the fifth officer, 11. Lowe, who, she said, saved the lives of many persons. Before the lifeboat was launched he passed along the port deck of the steamer, commanding the people not to jump into the boats and otherwise restraining them from swamping the craft. When the collapsible boat was launched Officer Lowe succeeded in putting up a mast and a small sail. He collected the other* boats together'. In some cases the boats were short of adequate crews, and he directed an exchange by which each was manned adequately. He threw lines connecting the boats, two by two and all thus moved together. Later on he went back to the wreck with the crew of one of the boats and succeeded in picking up some of those who had jumped overboard and were swimming about. On his way back to the Oarpathia. he passed one of the collapsible boats which was on the point of sinking with thirty passengers aboard, most of them iu scant nightclothing. They were rescued just in the nick of time. Hotel Keremeos ... Opposite G. N. li. Station MRS. A. F. KIRBY,, Proprietress. Keremeos-Penticton-Mail Stage.
