A Ll STANDS IN WITH RUSSIA America Differs From Germany Loxnox, September 21.���It seems to be generally believed throughout Kin-ope that Germany purposed her demand that the anti-foreign leader.-, should bo surrendered before negotiations could bo commenced, wifch a view or delaying any general acceptance of her proposal until field maishal count von Waldersee should arrive at Pekin. A dis- ' patch to the Daily Telegraph from "Washington asserts that tho United States government has politely declined to agree to Germany's proposal on this very ground." In any ,event with count von Waldersee - and la Hung Chang both jouruey- ��� ing northward, matters must soon reach a crisis. The manner of earl Li's reception seems to denote the suspicions ex- li.slingin Shang-Hai regarding his cio.e understanding with Russia. .About four thousand Russian troops, and all the principal Russian officers, met him at Chung Liiine: Chau, half way to Tien-Tsin. .A'*long conference was held at which no representative of any other power was present. This remarkable friendship apparently exists at a time when two continents are ringing with the stories of mas-, sacres by the Russians in Amur. The Moscow correspondent of tho Standard, reverting to the subject ������ of tho massacres this morning, says: '���I'Yoni a recent visitor to tho Amur region I learn that massacres are tho order of the day with the troops that are overrunning iMan- - chut-in." The orders are Issued by general Grodokoff. Rut ifc is quite . certain that emperor Nicholas must be ignorant of their nature. My informant has scon a series of telegrams from one JManchurian commander, overy one of which beseeches that he be allowed to spare peaceable citizens, but the Russian ��� indifference to tho lives of tho common herd is still of a. truly oriental , type." The same correspondent asserts that troops by the wholesale continue to pour into Manchuria. Li Hung Chang, according to Shang-Hai dispatches, assumed the ' seals of the vieeroyalty of China yesterday. His oflicers are busy raising 8000 foreign drilled men and well armed veterans, who are now encamped at Yang Chow, and will proceed to Tien-Tsin as earl Li's bodyguard, under command of Chang Kan Yung, who was the - Chinese general at Kiao Chou when the Germans seized that place. It is reported that Liu Kung Ki, viceroy of Nankin, alarmed at the prospects of the German fleet ascending the Yang Tse Kiang, is placing obstructions in the Channel below the Kiang Vin forts, and sending troops to the northeast of Kiang Su for ' fear tho Germans may land troops there to attack the Sing KiaiyFu. =7^Thlf%SliairfpHai correspondent of the Morning Post expresses the opinion that Germany's policy may yet load to a rising in Central China. The Standard has a Taku telegram asserting that, as a means, of averting, punishment,'the acting governor of Pao Ting Fu has posted a- proclamation -ordering the sup-, pression of tho Boxers. horse attached to a dump cart started to back into the train as the locomotive passed. The freight cars struck it and horse aud cart were tossed into the air. Bruddell's nose was smashed, some teeth knocked out, his face badly torn and he was otherwise hurt. The cirfc. was broken to splinters and tho horse killed. ROUNDING UP THE CHINESE y For Revenue Purposes. The city road tax was collected from the resident Chinamen last night and the collection caused a veritable hot timo in Chinatown. The tax collector, with chief Thompson of the fire department and half-a-dozen members of the brigade invaded tho Chineso quarter on Front street between seven and eight o'clock. The method of operation was to select a laundry or boarding house, put sentries on all the exits and then demand payment of the road .tax, which amounts to $2 per head. When the invaders entered a a house the hubbub that arose was almost deafening. A few of the celestials had sottled up earlier in the year, and saved a further outlay by producing their receipts. A large number of others claimed to have settled, but had nothing to substantiate their statements and eventually paid up. Still another section refused to "savey" what the oflicers desired aud were marched off to the police cells. The procession to the city hall -was a lively spectacle. Twenty-three Chinamen wero in the string and they protested vigorously. The bunch was turned into the cells and hero tho jabbering continued for half tho night. Tho celestials will be brought uj) this morning before the police magistrate. No difficulty was met with in making the arrest. The old game of passing around tho receipts was tried but did not work. CHINESE QUESTION OPENED Laurier Appoints a Commission. Ottaava, September 20.���The dominion government has appointed R. C. Clute of Toronto, Daniel J. Munn of New "Westminster, and Ralph Smith, M. P. P. for Nanaimo, as a commission to investigate and report upon the Chinese immigration question. At the last session of parliament sir Wilfrid Laurier promised, when increasing the poll fax upou Chinese from $50 to $100 per head, to appoint a commission to go fully into the Avhole subject and report what tax is desirable, if any. or Avhether Chineso immigration should be prohibited altogether. Commissioner Clute will no doubt be chairman of the commission, Avith D._J.JVIunn_as__the__,rept_esenta^ tive of the -.Fraser river canneries, which are the largest employers of Chinese labor in British Columbia, and Ralph Smith as the representative of organized labor. Russians Butcher Chinese. London, September 21���"Authentic accounts have been received here," says the Moscow eorrespon0- dent of the Standard, "of n horrible massacre at Blagovestchensk, Avhich was undoubtedly carried out under direct orders from the Russian authorities, and which then lefc loose the tide of slaughter through Amur. The entire Chinese population of ~)000 souls was escorted out of town to a spot live miles up the Amur, and then, being lod in batches of a few hundred to the river bank, wero ordered to cross OA'er to the Chinese sido. No boats"were piwided, and the river is a mile wide. The Chinese were flung alive into the stream and wero stabbed or shot at. the least resistance, Avhile Russian volunteers who lined tho bank clubbed or shot any who attempted to land. Not one escaped alive. The river bank for miles was strewn .with corpses." Ralph Smith May Run, Ottaava, September 21.���At tho trades and labor congress today, a resolution was unanimously passed asking Ralph Smith to run as labor candidate for the Dominion house in Nanaimo.

Tho report stated that the ledge was 18 feet "wide, but Mr. Dundee does not know as yet Avhether this is the maximum or average Avidth. A peculiar feature of the strike is that the discovery Avas the direct outcome of tbeTire which destroyed the Dundee concentrator. The flames burnt off" the timber and brush, exposing -the lead where none was known to exist. If the ledge proves to be as good as tho first reports Avould indicate tho company's lire losses will be more than repaid. ; C. S. Wallis of Rossland was registered at the Hotel Hume yesterday. ' He is largely interested in the Tamarac group at Ymir, and states that the arrangements for tho construction of the tramway from the Tamarac to the Nelson & Fort Sheppard road aro avcII under way, and that the property Avill ship extensively during tho winter.

The wagon road up the creek is progressing rapidly. David McBeath has GO men ab work along the road, and Avithin three Aveeks it will bo completed.

There is not a trace of that in the present attitude of visitation. It is only that having so recently entered into tho coramuuity of the western powers this country is conscious of the dignity and importance of her position as the first of the oriental nations to enjoy tho privilege, and it therefore most becomingly hesitates to take an attitude inimical to tho majority.

THE HARRIS GROUP BONDED Payments Aggregate,$125,000. Kuskonook, September 21.���An important deal has been closed by Philip Corcoran, representing senator Rums of San .Francisco and other capitalists of San Francisco and New York, for the purchase of the Harris group of mines, situate on White Fish creek in the St. Mary's country. The consideration is $125,000. This group consists of twelve claims, and tho showing of high grade copper and gold ore is unsurpassed in the provinco. Mr. Corcoran spent nearly the whole of the past season looking over the principal camps in both East and West Kootenay, and after a thorough inspection decided the Harris group to be tho banner group of any in the country. Ho thereupon opened negotiations.with the owner, Mrs. Jennie. E. .Harris of Kaslo, with the result that the deal was closed here yesterday, and papers relating to same deposited in the Merchants Bank of Halifax. Nelson. There are nine claims on the one vein, which averages about forty feet in width, their values rnnning as high as $400 to the ton in copper, gold and silver. A considerable amount-of work. has been done on the property by the original owners. A' tunnel 200 feet long has been run in, following the vein, from which a winze has been sunk some GO feet.. The lead has also been uncovered ,the entire length of the group on the surface. Mr. Corcoran leaves for the property tomorrow, with his engineer, to decide upon plans for immediate development. Bunk houses, ore bins, blacksmith shops, etc., will be erected at once. It is also his intention to install a compressor plant at an early date. In consequence of such a strong syndicate as the ono which Mr. Corcoran represents, becoming interested in this group, the success of the White Fish Creek camp is assured. A strike of considerable, importance was made last week on the "Diamond Joe" mineral claim situate on Goat mountain, about jtwo "miles from the junction of the Crow's Nest and Kootenay Aralley railroads.

The Daily Graphic's cori-espon- jflent at Pretoria says: The situation at. Johannesburg, [especially with reference to the [mining industry, attracts increas- Jing attention. These mines, which [have reached tin producing state, ���will be able to start crushing, on lore that has already been developed, as soon as a moderate num- [ber of workers come back, as it will jbe possible effectively to supply the Icrushing mills without a full com- Iplement of men. Development on Jnlieso mines will probably be. decayed for some three months later bhan that, but this will not inter- Ifere with running /them generally lis mills, mines and machinery are Jill in good condition. TPnniping is now going on at the lines which have most water in |}hem, and it is'thought that all will .e emptied in. about three months, in one important mine there are L 500 feet of water. The new producing mines will fiave to wait longer than the others fief ore work is commenced on them. The labor which might now-be. muployed upon the producing mines ts for the time being divided from (libera and being.used upon the cou- Htriiction of the new Springs, Rand Ifc Vereeniging railway. Eleven thousand Kaffirs are at the present Itnoment employed on the new rail- Iway, and it is thought, only fair to THE BANK OF BRITISH COLUMBIA NELSON Is now prepared to issue Drafts and Letters of Credit on Skaguay, U. S., Atlin, B. C, and Dawson City, N. W. T. give the producing mines the first available supply of labor. Colonel Girouard, director of the railways, has suggested that the various mining bodies should combine to spend . ��500,000 upon rolling stock for the jjiirpose of running -the-new-railvvay���The-mines"which~ have adopted this suggestion intend to glace orders at once for 300 trucks and 15 engines. The question of rolling stock will become vital in the event of the enemy destroying the 8000 trucks and 200 engines which aro now massed at Selati, a great part of which belong to the Free State and Colonial Railway. To replace these- would' take eighteen months, and this would mean that half the population woukl be. kept back indefinitely, as it! would be impossible to work the mines fully Avithout supplies and coal, nor could the population be supplied with the means of living. The ordinary coal consumption o.{ the Rand, is 115,000 tons per month. - The white population of the Rand at present is estimated at 80,000, two-thirds of whom are foreigners. The native population is about the same as at ordinary times, some 120,000. About 00,00.0 British subjects are away. The imperial government is at present paying native workmen at the rate of thirty shillings per month; the mines are paying them the same, as compared with sixty shillings per month before the war. It is suggested that the na tive labor departments should be reconstructed under government control, aud that shelters should be established and traveling facilities under special government protection offered, in order to induce the east coast and other natives to return to the Rand. . The establishment of anew civil government is strongly desired in order that these important pt-ob-i Imperial Bank of Canada HKAD OFFICE. TORONTO.

Many holders of these claims are fighting in the ranks of the various colonial corps. It is also felt that in future prospecting licenses should ^e granted at greatly reduced rates, and the country thus thrown open to tho prospecting enterprise of new and old settlers. The revenue, it is argued, should be obtained from a fair share of the results, as is done in other mining countries, and hot by preliminary taxation as heretofore. .

The fact that candidates arc being nominated in the -different constituencies throughout the Dominion and that the leaders of both parties are on the stump indicate that the country is in the throes of an election campaign no matter how long election day may be deferred, o It was , at first thought that the elections would, be held iu October, but tho wiseacres have now chosen January as the month when people will decide whether to continue the present government or not. In this district the fight will bo made under peculiarly satisfactory conditions. Tho conventions by choosing Messrs. Galliher and MacNeill have given the lie to the statement that a candidate must be possessed of great wealth in order to run in this district. Both candidates start in the running on an even footing so far as -tin y themselves" are concerned. They are not wealthy men, both - are lawyers and both are possessed of ability. Both candidates are piacj tically unknown outsido the cities in whicli they reside and have had no parliamentary experience. The prejudice in favor of a local man in Rossland will ,be offset ,by a similar prejudice in-favor of-the Nelson man.

Title | The Nelson Tribune |
Publisher | Nelson, B.C. : Tribune Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1900-09-22 |
Description | The Tribune was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, and ran from November 1892 to November 1905. The Tribune was published and edited by John Houston, an outspoken journalist who would later embark on a successful political career, which included four terms as the mayor of Nelson and two terms in the provincial legislature. Houston had established the Miner in Nelson in 1890, and, after leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, he established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. In August 1901, the title of the paper was changed to the Nelson Tribune. |
