Outj A POLITICAL PECKSNIFF So the Mail does not think llio timu hns arrived for Conservatives in liev- I'lstoke to oi-gauizo. In fact it does not see any use for Hiieh nn organization nt all. Only the Grits are allowed, in the Mail's idea of what is convenient and suitable.', to have associations. Tlii*y are the people. They can have associations and conventions and platforms on provincial affairs, but Conservatives are only peanut politicians, who have no right to any of these privileges. The Mail is losing not ils common sense, whii/h would perhaps be 11 difficult mutter, but even its sense of -common decency, in its desperate efforts to please its master and earn its money. But Conservatives are, not likely to pay nny attention to the insults of a reptile organ -of the calibre of the Mail. Tho poor thing has to go 1 hrough its unties at the crack of the whip, and if-iii its clumsy efforts to please the boss, it should happen'tostep on somebody's toes, .allowance's enn.Jic made. It probably does not really mean to be offensive, but it does riot know any hotter. , ' BLUE JAY ~1"N1"*"L CL*,I"I. Si'.uote in the Illecillewaet Mining Dhiaion.

Its latest role is that of the political Pecksniff, and is well worth noticing. It cannot enduie that Conservative!, should have as much as a, local associ- ution iu Kevelstoke, Hnd at the same time with hypocritical itiipi.der.ee is asking people to believe that the recent Liberal convention and"their volun- tceied ultimatum on provincial aff.iits, have nothing tn do with the introduction of party . lines 'into provincial affairs. It is-loud in its Pecksniffeon protestation of iunoceiice. 'The Gi its, it cries, do not want-provincial party lilies drawn at the next election. The convention, the association, the platform have nothing to do with any; thing of the kind. - In fact if anything they were intended to prevent the introduction of Dominion politics into provincial affairs. How noble, is the indignation, of the Kootenay--Peck- Miifl at Iho bare idea of jiny such I hing I llow refrcshingits innocence I How exalted its virtue I How astonishing its resemblance to its great prototype, that wondeiful mixture of arrogance, self conceit and humbug 1 The wits, not of course of tho "Mail, but of its masters, must bu trotting very dull in tho enjoyment of this fat things of ollice, if they expect people to swallow this kind of gush without a murmur. But it won't work. Conservatives may have no rights'-that the Mail and its boss feel bound to respert, but they are not simply natural born fools lor all' that. They know very well the fate which has befallen tho provincial administrations of Ontario and Manitoba, under Giit auspices, and they are' by no means anxious lo see British Columbia added to the list of Grit triumphs. Whatever may be the ultimate outcome of the present crisis in the affaiis-of this province, it quite obviously behooves Conservatives to make sure that at all events the Liberal little game i.s turned' down. It worked pretty slick at. (iist.but recently has go: a considerable setback and Pecksniir is very mad about it-and uses bad language, quite unbecoming in so viituous a character. But. if our enemies have lost their heads, that is all the more reason why we should keep cool, organize our party and watch the progress of events, ready if necessary to act with promptitude aud decision.

To begin with we run an incline tunnel for about 80 feet, and then going some distance away drove actosscut. after reaching the vein we drifted back and toiinected with the incline tunnel. At the angle formed by the crosscut tunnel and drift, we sunk a winze for a depth of 50 feet. and when we left ol" work weie engaged in drifting right and left from the bottom of the winze. The vein heie is six feet thiough and cuts the formation. The p.iystronk is 30 inches in width and eoniunsed of two feet of concentrates mid about six inches of clean ore, the average of which runs. 25t ounces silver and 75 per cent. lead.

Anybody would _. almost think that either Itevelstoke was the first place in the Dominion to attempt incorporation, or that everybody in it had dropped from the skies, or else, as tlie Herald is -rathej' inclined to believe inust.be the case "with ^some of the 'tii'uibers of both.the old'and the present committee,'have never lived'in an incorporated town in Western Canada or helped to make the history of one of them. There is, it appears, a big stick in some, people's'minds for fear the whole of the money collected by taxation should go to pay official salaries. Can anybody give one single instance in the Dominion in which this has been,the case, or in which incorporation has not inablcd a place to spend money to increase in u dozen ways its conveniences and comforts as ���������i point of business and residence ? Other people are scared r lest the Smelter Co. or some other townsite owners shrnild_oppose��������� incorporation;" but surely it is not our business to he exercising our imagination, to in vent- obstacles to incorporation. It will be quite tune enough lo meet and conquer theni when they actually arise. Such opposition, if it exists at all, will be just as likely to exist ten years hence as to-moirow. The gist of the whole matter is just this: Incoipoiatiou is a fine thing for any place that is going ahead. It is a bad thing for a town that is standing still or declining. People expect to sec a live place incorporated. They wonder why* its occupants choose to remain so long in a disorganized condition. They.look upon iucoiporatioii as a sign of the faith of the inhabitants in their own town. If we believe iu Revelstoke's fiituie as*the coming business centre of North Kootenny. by all means let us incorporate. If, on the other hand, we really* think that the pi ogress of this place during the past few years rests on no solid foundation, and that its futtiie is uncertain, then let us leave incorporation alone. But at all events let us nuke up our minds on the subject, and if we have decided on incorporation, let us go to work like men who mean to have it and to make it an advantage and benefit to our town; not like people who do not know exactly whether they want it or not, and are half scared how it will turn out if they do get it.

While a big rush this way ~va~ expected in the spring very lew were prepared for the tide which has already set in . of. parties determined to make their way to the gold fields over the snow. Since the beginning of winter several " parties have arrived and outfitted tor the lonsc trip over the snow and more are coming. People who know from experience what are -the difficulties and hardships of a long winter journey such as this don't require to be reminded that under the most favorable circumstances the trip is a serious undertaking.- It is in the interest- of . the' overland route itself, no less than in the interests of those now starting that the-dangers of the trip should not be underestimated. Not only is the trip with sleighs an arduous undertaking in itself, but there is to be faced the probability ���������in fact it might safely be called the certainty���������of being blockaded anywhere between Peace River and Lake Francis. Spring and bare ground would thus find the travellers with their sleiyhs and with no means of continuing their march except on fcot, or with an insufficient number ol horses, which would of course necessitate abandoning a considerable portion of their supplies. It is much better that the intending gold seeker should know soiue- ~tbinTof~tlre~diniculties"-ii*~h-s-to f ace than that he should discover them when beyond reach of a remedy. POLICY OF THE C. P. R. IN THE WEST Tj tho Editor of Tub Hkiiald. SIR,���������Having in mind the many inconveniences suffered by travellers at the hands of the Canadian Pacilie railway in the west and at this point in particular, and in view of the manv .recent accidents occurring on the western division, it appeals* to me an opportune time to call the attention of the people of Canada to the policy of tbat gigantic corporation u in the west. Particularly is the time opportune, as it is generally known that at tbe approaching session of Parliament Tct another haul will be���������or rather the attempt will lie���������made to exact or extrACtan additional subsidy or .bonus out of the people ot Can.idaoii account of the construction of the Crow's Nest Past-railway. With that I shall have nothing to say in this, communication further than to state on the authority of competent railway contractors as well an of engineers of established reputation, tnat the Canadian Pacific will net^-out of the bonus given theni hy parliament at its last session'1 of eleven thousand dollars per mile���������a clear one million dollars in cash, and in addition, the land bonus granted to ttaeB. C. Southern by the Government of British Columbia. Whether this, when considered: in connection with the value of their franchise, is enough, or whether they are entitled to more, I will leave Jlr. Farrar, who was sent west to write up the neces- ������-it"ps ot the case, to say. * The object of this communication is rather to call attention to the parsimony of the policy of that corporation in the west, " and the danger that must ensue as the result of a continuation of that policy to th<* travelling public.-* I will mention first, Mr. Editor, the I breeaccidents that have occured within the past few days at Calgary, the two on the McLeod branch, and then the one on the big hill to the west. First there was the "jam-in", as Jt is is called in railway parlance. It hap- __. pened-aliout half past twelve at night, "only fifteen minutes before the express was, due from the west, one freight running into another. Some thousands of dollars worth ot freight was lost; an engine disabled; the line blocked; but, fortunately, no one very seriously injured. Verdict���������(practically): "No one to blame." The truth was-that because of the parsimony of the policy of the C. P. It. on this division, there were not signalmen enough to do the work. Trainmen are expected and are enjoined to do the work of switchmen; they depend on "orders". Orders It must be understood are messages from the dispatcher, and anyone who has had to do with the office at Calgary knows how almost impossible it is lo get any satisfaction, much less' a message, ont of or through the operative office of telegraph service at Calgaiy. Of that I will have something to say at the close of this letter, In a word the management is too stingy, because of the desire to make a good financial showing to put enough men on to do the work, and too shortsighted to see, or too indolent to look into the cause of the accident whicli caused the loss of a few thousand dollars of freight and the miraculous escape of a lew employees, where it might have been liundrods of passengers of the regular express under die same policy. A few days later almost at the same hour at night, when the express wiLli its human freight is expected from the west, and an hour and a half later the express is due from the east, two freight trains collide in the Calgary yard, the one from the west, heavily loaded, and v. ith a car lo.ul of dynamite, pitches engine on into another freight. The result was a most complete wreck of two engines and one freight train. Fortunately the train hands escaped with a few slight bruises. But, Mr. Editor, one trembles at what might have been the result had the car of dynamite exploded. As it -was the-fcender was-jammed���������intn_the- car of dynamite; the latter did not explode, or the city of Calgary would now have been in ruins and hundreds, ave, perhaps thousands, of lives lost, as the result of what weare bound to believe, a parsimonious economy of the management on this division. The verdict, as the result of an enquiry, (practically): "Xo one to blame." The next, and only a few days later, was the breaking through of a freight tram crossing the Bow river bridge three miles east of Calgary. This bridge had been condemned a year ago and was tit the time under repair, yet it must be evident to the most impartial that "some one blundered" else the train would not have been allowed to cross. The same result v.-ould have followed had the train been a passenger. The accident on tbe big hill is a more glaring evidence of carelessness cr incapacity, or both, because of the economy chaiacteristic of lhe management. The main line is and has been for some time in a. notoriously bad condition. It will be understood that on each side of the Big Hill safety switches are put m. These are always open for the purpose of catching a runaway train, and are only closed on a signal from the engine in charge of a train. In this" instance, the freight train west bound had got away from the brakemen; had the engineer allowed it to go the wreck of the passenger train then standing at Field would have been inevitable. They took the switch and with it their lives in their hand������. The engine was turned up and disabled and freight and cars were tumbled promiscuously into the Kick- ingHorse. Said a railway engineer to the writer not long ago: "God pity the man who is forced to take one of these switches, they are old, rotten and worn out. They have been in for 12 years and would not hold a wheelbarrow. Verdicl: "No blame to anyone." The last two occurred in the neighborhood of Macleod on Friday night last. The writer has not learned the particulars, but it is known now two lives have been lost. Another man escaped with two broken legs which will probably have to be amputated, another bruised so badly that it is doubtful whether he will ever be well again. (Since the same has been written the man has died of his injuries). Theie is not a doubt that if an impartial examination is made that the direct cause will be found to be in one case one result of that economy characteristic of the management and in the other gross if not criminal carelessness. _Just a word respecting the telegraph service in connection with tho runninc of trains, particularly at Calgary. I say in connection with running of trains, for so far as 1 am able to learn no complaint is made of the commercial branch of that service. But in connection with the arrival and departure of trains, the system���������it' system it can be called���������is rotten. Civility or oven ordinary courtesy is an unknown quantity. It is a rarity to be able to get any information from the operator as to the arrival of trains, and it is a frs- quent occurence, in fact, infrequently the reverse���������thatptissengois are called at the dilTercnt hotels and kept for hours waiting in uncertainty. A travelling agent of.the company said not long ago to the writer: "L don't wonder that the people here kick, it is- a shame,*' and in reply to my question why he did not report the lacts he saw; that to do so he said would be to bring the whole operative stall, down on his head. More recently a -Minister of the Crown complained bitterly at being called I think six hours before the departure of a train and expressed his intention of repotting thiugs as he found them to Sir William Van Home, by whom he had been asked to note any" irregularity in the service. It is sincerely to be hoped, both in the interests of the railway and the public, that the minister's good resolution will hold until he reaches Ottawa. In conclusion, Mr. Editor, I wish to state that I am. writing without a particle of malice or unkindly leeling towards the Canadian Pacific railway or any person connected in any way with ic, and am only stating what 1 believe to be true of the condition of things existing, which in the interests -0"_the-raiLw.Lsy__anrl___inone___particiilaiI\-. in the interests of the public of Can-" ada should exist no longer. It is a notorious fact that the Canadian Pacific Railway are���������in so far as it is possible for ti gigantic corporation with almost unlimited i-'sources to be ���������censors of the press, if not the masters of it. With their patronage and judicious distribution of ptiises, our legislators and public men are no longer free agents, and too often it i-. painfully evident that thev dare'not speak out in the interests of their constituents, fearing the "glassy eye" of the company, and all it involves to them. Are the public to continue to be "hewers of wood and drawers of water?'' Have.' we any rights that they should respect? Possibly not. Mr. Editor. Then is the earth" theirs and the fullness thereof.

"Hero wo aro again," ciied our Fat Member on our reassembling last night. Wo half expected to scoliim execute a dcmivoltu on lho floor. Happily for the foundations of our at present excellent fabric ho refrained. How tho familiar words brought buck past yuletides, pantonimesand reminiscences of poor dead Harry Payne and his garb of motley���������but this is digressive. We had not met together for some clays; our several avocations having temporarily dispersed us in vaiioii" parts of the happy land wc live in. The Chief was not in a responsive mood. He sat silent, and an unwonted expression of seriousness was on his countenance. We could see that some burden, of which, ny the way, he delivered himself later, was on his soul. One of us started the subject of the election of Van Wvck as mayor of New Vork���������the victory of Tammany Hall���������and the startling utterance of the boss of that organization, Richard Croker, that bo did not remember having done anything that he ought not to have done; for lie had only good all his life. Either his memory was short or his modesty required remodelling, This led us on to speak of the recent installation of the Lord Mayor of London. -"How quietly these things are done over there," said the Cynic.^ " Just as they have been for hundreds of years. Tho aspirant for the~curule chair is elected without disturbance and stops into office with a blare of trumpets and as part of a pageant in which he was predestined to figure from the buginmng. ��������� , ��������� "And think of the beautiful banquet at the Guildhall on installation night) and the speeches of the cabinet ministers���������and the lashins and lavins on the morrow," si~hed the .Fat Man as he unconsciously stroked the region 'of. his diaphragm. "Why couldn't we have something of the sort here, barring the speechifying?" * - " That reminds mc" said the Chief, " that I have something to say to you, on a kindred"subj"*ct.\ We are now on tlie eve of electing tbe men who, aie to govern this city for the year 1S9S. Every succeeding year, as election time comes ^rnundrsibe members of the Council are held up as inefficient or unworthy of public confidence, and _ yet how few will take any trouble to remove tbe grounds of complaint. It was long ago observed that a country had the government which it deserved. The same observation applies to a municipality. If the most capable inhabitants of a city will rest content with sighing over misrule, and will make no effort to better tho condition of things, they deserve to suffer for .their supineness. _.If they hold__J_h_e_m__, Selves aloof from taking their <-share in the responsibility of directing the affairs of the city in which they live and labor, either because it is too much trouble or because social position or intellectual attainment manes it recourse tc a man of law arises, there is a proper oflicer to whom the matter can he icferred. '- Most men would hive felt rebuffed��������� not so the L-iwyor; he only smiled imperturbil ly as one unconvinced; I have an idea he means to run for a seat after all. Nicotine. distasteful to associate with those they may deem their inferior", or whatever the reasons~rnay bo which actuate them in' so, holding aloof, they have only themselves to thank, if they come under the government of the very men they despise. Plato long ago enjoined every virtuous citizen to rescue the state from the usurpation of vice, corruption and ignorance, ond I would urge on you as good citizens the duty you owe to each other and to your fellow citizens to use your influence to induce really capable representative men to come forward as candidates for the new council., Mind, I am not finding fauit with the existing body, Imt I am quite sure lhat it is not sufll- eienlly representative and that fresh blood will make it more efficient for good.

When occasion for A FULL ENQUIRY INTO THE COLLISION AT WILLOW CREEK Inquest on the Body of a Victim��������� Died of Heart Failure Says the C. P. R. Doctor-Working Twenty-Five Hours Without Sleep. Calgary, November 27, ISO". , Tho inquest on the body of James Robinson, the llreinan, who died from injuries received on the Willow Creek accident, on the Macleod branch, was re-opened by Coroner Sanson on Tues day morning at the Barracks. The first three witnesses had nothing of very great importance to say. John Pugb, a Calgary laborer,deposed to knowing deceased. James Smart, undertaker, of Cal- Oalgary, having been sworn, said he took the body trom the car in order to prepare it for burial. He received a certificate of death from Dr. Mackid. The certificate slated that death was "due to heart failure." George Ilillier, ' station agent at Ciilsjary, being next ca'led, gave information respecting the running of trains on tho Calgary-Macleod line, but stated he did not know- why the car3 into which Robinson's engine ran were stuck on the ro\d. In the afternoon the first witness to be called was Dr. Mackid. Being swoin he said that he saw Robinson on Saturday night in the caboose on the track at YVillow Creek; so far as he was able to do so he examined the man's injuries. So painful was it, however, for him to be moved, that examination was necessarily of a very superficial character. He bandaged hun and fixed him up with pillows, etc., so that the jolting of the car "should affect him as little as possible. He also gave a hypodermic injection of ' a qnarter of. - a gratn- of *_ j morphia. --, Deceased was very thirsty and "asked repeatedly for ale. *As they neared High River," on their way to Calgary, he seemed to rally, and spoke to Conductor Barclay a'skiug if he thought his (Robinson's) time ticket would go on. He then asked for water,'whieh was given him. At High River witness left the caboose in order to telegraph to the matron of of the Calgary General hospital to make such preparations as might be necessary for the reception of the sufferers. On returning 'to the 'caboose he found the patient dead. ' In answer to direct questions^the witness stated.that the injuries to' the pelvis were sufficient in themselves to cause death. Nevertheless he had stated in the certificate of death which he had granted that death was caused by heart failure. He knew that this was the common, cause of.death. But be thoughtrirrwas a'"inb"st~convenient ex- firesston. The heart failure'was caused" ty internal hemorrhage and shock. -But*he could not'say this on Lhe certificate of doath;there was no room on the paper so he merely wrote "heart failure." Besides he thought it impossible for a medical man to give an absolutely certain certificate of death, without having held a post-mortem examination. Witness received two telegrams from Supt. Niblock. The first was to see that the remains were prepared for burial and. tbe second contained instructions as to shipping the body for burial. In answer to a juryman: Deceased made no complaint as to anyone being to blame for the accident. The next witness to be sworn was John Telfer, road master, Calgiry. He said that in winter only the section -foremen remained on the road and they were left to decide for themselves which part of their sections required inspection. He could not account for the stopping of the first train on the track. There was no grade steep enough to cause a stoppage under ordinary circumstances. The engine was a three-wheeled mogul. Barclay's crew consisted of Engineer Shenfield, the deceased and brakesmen S. Lloyd and J. McGarry.'Engineer Hamul had with him a fireman whose name he did not ��������� know, Harry Liscelles and another brakesman. AN IMPORTANT WITNESS Dayid Dean, fireman, of Can more, said that he had been with Engineer Shenfield since the first of November. He had "booked a rest" on Friday abont 1.80 p. m��������� and the deceased took his place.. He had then been on duty for 25 consecutive hours without sleep. It was not unusual to work so long; he had done so himself before. Engineer Shenfield had also been on duty for 25 hours before he went on to Macleod on Friday, in charge of engine 40. They were entitled to "book rest" when they had bsen on duty 15 hours if they were where a substitute could be found. His impression was that Robinson was not an experienced tire- man. They were paid by the Aile at the rate of $2.15 per 100 milesatra were also allowed pay for detention. - He had never made any complaint as to o"verwork. Dr. J. D. l__afferty was next called and read tne report of the post mortem examination, which. Dr. Rouleau and himself had made of the deceased Apparently Robinson had been a healthy man. * Internal hemmorhage had been the cause of death. He never 'remembered giving heart failure as the cause of death, nor did he think it was a usual practice in tlie profession. Heart failure was always the cause of death/ Dr. E. H. Rouleau agreed to the report which had been "read. He had never heard of heart failure being given as the cause of death and he did not remember ever having given such a certificate himself. It struck him as a strange verdict. This closed the proceedings for the day. tho inquest being adjourned to Wednesday morning at 10.30. The first witness to be called on Wednesday morning in the,ino,uest on the body of James Robinson, C. P. tt. fireman, was Sergt. Brooke,who swore to serving subpoenas on Conductor Terry and brakesmen J. McGarry and Robert Smith. Tbe subpoenas had been disregarded and Coroner Sanson gave ordeis lor lhe arrest of the men. The remainder of the sitting was occupied in the examination of engineer Shinglleld who was in charge of lhe engine on which the deceased was fireman. A thorough investigation was made as to the number of hours he had been on duty without rest from the first of tho month to the time of the accident. For tho first three days of November he was on a woik train at Cochrane.- On the Jlli he took took charge of engine 40 tunning from Calgary to Edmonton and Macleod. On that dav he was on duty for 20A hours; on the 5th he worked for 10i hours; during the 7lh, Sth, and Dili ho was on duty lor 48" consecutive hours: on the'lOth he worked 15 hours; on tlio 11th, 21 hour-,- during the 12th and lath, 201 consecutive hours; on the 14th, H$ hours; on the loth 17J hours; during tho 10th and 17th, 20J consecutive hours; on the 18th and 10th for 31 consecutive hours, up to the limo of the accident, which occurred at 10 minutes past 0 p.m. At the time of the accident therefore ho had been on duty for thirty-one hours. His running orders which were then produced showed that he had been given tho right of the road to High River, that at High River he had been told to proceed to Olaresholme, and that at Claresholme he had the l ight of the road to Macleod. He said the night of the accident was very dark and stormy. Tim first warning he received .of Ihe train in front ot him was from the flagman who was about "00 yards from the rear end of the train. He crossed the Willow Creek bridge at the rate of about 15 miles an hour. The company had a rule that the bridge should not be crossed at a greater speed than five miles an hour, hub the night was so dark that he did not know where he was until ho struck the bridge. He had not known where he was since leaving Leavings. After putting Willow Creek bridge behind him he got up steum ou acco jnt of a heavy grade which began near the place where the accident occurred. He told the deceased to fire up and added that it was the hist grade they would have to pass before reaching Macleod. He had no control over the train that night except such as the air brake in the tender and the hand brakes afforded. There were no air brakes on'the cars. He thought that the train might have, been stopped in a little over half a mile by means of the handbrakes. "As soon as he saw the flagman he immedi-' ately whistled for brakes and reversed the engine to the full power* of the boiler. The head brakesman responded immediately to his call for brakes There was a light at the rear end of the train in front of them. The flagman whom he saw had a red and whitelantern. He heard no torpedoes, According to the rules of the company the flagman should have been at least a mile from the rear of the train he was protecting. He stuck to his engine and did all in his power to pull up, till "within two car lengths of the train in front. Then he jumped. As he did so he called to Robinson to "Come on." It was all he had time to say. He thought that the deceased followed him, but could not be certain. Tbe first person he saw on picking himself up was the road master, to whom he said: "Have you seen' my mate? I * believe - he's killed." He then saw' Robinson laying on what be took to be the roof of one of the wrecked cars. It was impossible to take tbe wounded men to Macleod tis there was nothing in which they, in their condition, could have been properly conveyed. On one occasion he had asked for rest after working 18 hours and objections had been raised; but as a rule he thought that the company 'would allow a man rest after working 12 hours if it was asked for. On the occasion when he had worked for 48 hours he could have "'booked rest" if he had wished to do so.' They never booked less than eight hours rest. Three or four train ciews are stationed at Canmore as a reserve. A doctor had been sent for from Maclecd.to attend-to_the_injured;���������he- attended to Robinson but- did not bandage him. Dr. Mackid bandaged him when he arrived next morning. Robinson was 21 years old. He thought he was from Dundas, Ont.; he had heard that he had a brother in Winnipeg. *��������� The train which had stuck on the line was supposed to consist of 19 ears. He had himself taken 28 loads over that point but bad not had to break. He had never had occasion to break at that point. He was under the impression that the train ahead of him was three or four hours late; he had no information to that effect except what he . bad gathered from a brakesman. In the course ot the enquiry witness stated the deceased was inexperienced and had not been over the(roitd before. This closed the proceedings for the day. The inquest was then adjourned to 10.30 a.m. Thursday. he might die. He did not think he would die; he seemed quite cheerful. Dr. Mackid told him he was not seriously injured. 'Ho considered Las- cellos a thoroughly competent man. Asa general iuie conductors did not remove instructions respecting trains ahead of theni, except when the rear tiaiu was the fasler orwhenitwasonly 10 minutes behind. In answer to questions : A man would be useless to theni if he would only work 12 hours before booking rest, as thciu would be times when he would not be able to reach the divisional points in that number of hours. The divisional points wero the only places where rest could be booked. The men were not required to go on duly after IS hours work. As to tho rumor thaL the company iiacl tried lo smuggle tho body away he denied it emphatically, He hud wired to Dr. Mackid to have the body nreptued for burial and hud then wired to Winnipeg for instructions. He received in- sli notions from Winnipeg to issue an order for trati.sportfi.lion ot the body. The inquest was then adjourned to Friday morning. TELEGRAPHIC NEWS WiNNipEG.Novembei 21.

WHYTE, Manng-er. -Winnipeg. Ilh November, 1807. nl j dw-tf Thursday was occupied in the examination of Supt. J. Niblock, of the C. P. R. His evidence went lo show that it is one of the rules of the company that when a stoppage occurs on a main line such as took place at Willow Creek it is the duty of the conductor to send a flagman some 3,000 feet to the rear to protect the train. In regard to the number of hours dining which the men were accustomed lo work he said that he thought 48 hours was not to long for a train crew to remain on duty in special cases. This perhaps might not apply to the Bremen, whose work is more laborious. According to the rules of the company it was necessary for a man to have been on duty at least 15 hours before booking rest. Although in cases where a man had along "tip ahead of him without the chance of booking rest at a divisional point he may lay off after nine hours work. It was no advantage to the company for train ciews to remain 011 di}ty for long feriod; they were paid by the mile, f there was any advantage it was that if they worked for a short, uniform time there would be occasions on which there wculd be a large excess of men. and other occasions on which there would not be a sufficient number available. The amount of traffic on the line was very variable. He also thought lhat they got the best woik out of the men when they worked long hours. If shorter hours were adopted the men would be apt to spend their time in amusements which would unfit them for work, rather than in sleep.
