C, THURSDAY MORNING, JUNE G, 1901  PRICE FIVE CENTS  DERBY WON IN RECORD TIME  WHITNEY'S SPEEDY VOLODYVSKI  THE   VICTOE.  Crowds Throng the Famous Downs to  Witness   the   Event,   in Which  Twenty-five Horses Entered.  London, June 5.���AVilliam 0.  Whitney's Volodyvski won the  Derby today in record time, 2:104-5,  but came near losing it. Volodyvski  seemed to havo the race well in  hand, and the immense ��� crowd  which had backed tho horse heavily was yelling joyfully, "Volodyvski wins," when Moray Cannon on  William the Third came on with a  rush, challenged and for a moment  seemed to be in front, but Reiff by  the vigorous use of the whip managed to regain tlie lead, and won  by a narrow quarter of a length.  Tho widespread interest in this  year's Derby, owing to tho open  character of the race, was attested  to by the vast number which left  L-mdou for Epsom throughout the  morning. From tin early hour the  roads and railroads southward were  densely thronged by a strange  medley of race-goers. The road, as  .usual, was favored by every one  able to secure room in any kind of  conveyance and- a continuous  stream ot every conceivable type  of vehicle, from tlie four-iu-hand to  the coster's donkey cart, rolled towards the fatuous downs. An exceptional number of foreigners were  in evidence on the grounds.  Tlio trains brought thousands of  people from till directions, tlie carriages and coaches dropping their  occupants at the entrances of the  grand stand and jockey club inclos-  ures until these were filled. Such a  display of fashion ami bright colors  had'not been seen in England since  tho outbreak of the war. Many old  and well-known patrons of this utrf  were seen, though such favorites as  king Edward .and lord Rosebery  wero necessarily absent. Khaki  was even more conspicuous than  last year, and the popular victory  of the now prince of Wales' Diamond Jubilee Avas coincident with  1 ltd Roberts' entry into Johannesburg. After a couple of minor  events, the second of which Maher  won, the way was cleared for the  blue ribbon race and the paddock  was soon iilled with gay groups  scanning their respective favorites.  Volodyvski was the center of attraction, and a host of admirers  surrounded Mr. Whitney's crack.  Epsom, Juno 5.���Although it was  clear that the war in South Africa  still kept many habitues 'away, to-  -daV-!s_c.on.tes.t_for the blue ribbon of  the British turf was witnessed by  much greater crowds than for some  years. Tlie weather was all that  could be wished. The vehicles first  rolled in by twos and threes and  then by do/.ens and scores until the  white road leading to tlie downs  smoked with the dust of the vast  heterogenous cavalcade, and the  air was filled with a weird jumbling of trumpets, barrel organs and  cornets. Twenty-live- horses started.  FoxhaH's. Olympian' led until a  quarter of a mile from home, when  Volodyvski drew to the front, followed by William tlie Third, and  won by a quarter of a length. Four  lengths separated the second and  third horses. Floriforin was fourth.  Round Tottenham corner several  horses dropped out. A quarter of  a mile from home Volodyvski took  np the running and William IH  drew to second place. The favorite  seemed to bo winning easily, when  William III came on with a tremendous rush.. But Reiff' pulled  the favorite together and landed  him a winner.  Young Mr. Whitney, beaming  with delight, led the horse in, alternately patting the favorite's neck  and looking 'np at Reiff, saying,  '���Good boy, good boy." Mr. Whitney said to a representative of the  Associated Press: "Of course I am  more than i>l eased. It was a very  pretty race, but I must say I.  thought tlie second horse was going  to catch us."  At this point Richard Croker  came up and enthusiastically congratulated Mr. Whitney. "Yes, wo  are going to take the trophy to  America once moro," said Mr.  Whitney, as he walked off aud sent  a telegram to his father.  Coaches about the  graud stand  were crowded with Americans, but  they were very undemonstrative.  The betting was 5 to 2 against  Volodyvski, 100 to 7 against William the Third and 10 to 1 against  Veronese. The starters were: Volodyvski, Floriform, Handicapper,  Revenue, William the Third,. Royal  Rogue, Veronese, Sangbleu, War-  grave, Pietormaritzburg, H. R. H.,  Veles, Ian, Royal George, Cottager,  Olympian, Orchid, Tantalus, Lord  Bob, St. MacLoud.Ruskin, Doricles,  Claquerer, Prince Charles II and  Osboch.  The conditions of the race were  as follows: The Derby stakes of  (5000 sovereigns'-by subscription of  50 sovereigns each, for 3-year-olds,  the nominator of the winner to receive 500 sovereigns, the owner of  the second horse 300 sovereigns and  the owner of the third 200 sovereigns out of the stakes; about one  mile and a half. There were 279  subscribers.  New York, June 5.���On being  congratulated on Volodyvski's success Mr. Whitney said to a reporter: "Of course I am very much delighted, but possibly more on Hag-  gin's account than my own. It is  a great thing for an American  trainer to land the race, and Hag-  gin, who trains for me at Heath  House, is such a careful, painstaking man that he deserves the  success."  GROOERS   ELECT OFFICERS  The Organization Effected,  The Nelson Retail Grocers' Association was formally organized last  evening. Among the firms represented at the meeting were Messrs.  McPherson & McCammon, J. A.  Irving & Company, William Hunter  & Company, T. J. Scanlan, Lester &  Company, George Bell & Company,  and Morrison & Caldwell. The  election of officers resulted as follows: Ii. McPherson, president;  George Bell, vice-president; Chris  Morrison, secretary; S. L. Lester  treasurer; and J. A. Irving, T. J.  Scanlan and S. L. Lester,  directors.  A draft of a set of by-laws was  submitted, but the consideration of-  theni was laid over until the next  meeting. ���  The adoption of a scale of prices  for staples as well as the preparation of a black list was deferred.  All the grocery firms in the city  will bo included iu the association,-  with the exception of the Hudson's  Bay Company, but an understanding exists between this company  and the association so that it will  work in harmony with the association in all things.  REISTERER GIVES EVIDENCE  SAW THE PRISONERS FOLLOWING  THE SWEDE.  Bloomfield and Rowlen Were Together  Before and After the Robbery of  Charles Johnson Occurred.  Japanese Notes.  Victoria, June 5.���Japanese papers tell of how a dessicated foot  left at Yokohama caused trouble  for Japanese detectives until  friends came forward and told of  liow--MrrBarkerfnwhb"had=left=forj  San Francisco on the steamer Gaelic,  had brought the foot from a museum in Egypt and had been carrying  it with him on his tour.  A Japanese paper says that the  withdrawal of troops will be misinterpreted by the Chinese, who misconstrue lenient treatment, but run  away from harsh measures. It  hears that the Chinese court at  Hsiang is, instead of wearing sackcloth, engaging in all kinds of luxury and debauchery.  News comes from Hakodate that  the .Borealis, oue of the Victoria  schooners hunting off the Japanese  coast, litis taken 1882 skins, which  is considered a very large catch.  Powder Ignites.  Vallkjo, Cal., June 5.���A magazine at Mure Island navy yard containing about 20 tons of powder  became ignited this mdrning by  chemical action. The powder did  not explode, but generated enough  gas and smoke to force the top off  tho magazine. The powder is now  slowly burning. It is far removed  from the black powder, and there  is no danger of an explosion. The  magazine, which was constructed, in  1857 at a cost of several hundred  thousand, dollars, will be a- total  loss.  Miss Daly Married.  Nisw Youk, June 5.���Miss Mary  Daly, daughter of the late Marcus  Daly, was married today to James  Watson Gerard of this city. The  ceremony was performed at the  residence of the bride's mother by  Bishop Potter. The bride was given  away by her brother, Marcus Daly.  Her only attendant was her young  sister, Miss Harriet Daly.  The preliminary hearing in the  case against Frank Rowlen and  Frederick Bloomfield, charged with  robbing ��� a Swede named Charles  Johnson early Sunday morning, occupied four hours iu the police  court yesterday, and was iinally  adjourned until this morning when  the prosecution will complete its  case with the evidence of chief  Jarvis and constable Heavener.  There was a great mass of testimony taken which went to prove  that before the robbery occurred  the two prisoners were around the  bars of .the city together, and also  that they were present when the  Swede cashed. his check for $18.  There was also evidence that they  were together a short time after  the robbery occurred, and that they  remained together for some time.  The evidence of J. F. Weir was  also taken with a view to fixing  the ownership of the hard hat found  by Johnson after he had been  robbed and one of the footpads had  run off with his soft hat. Weir's  evidence as to the hat was not con-,  elusive. Ho sold such a hat as  the one found to . the prisoner  Bloomfield, but could not swear  that the hat produced wa3 the hat  sold.  The most important evidence was  given by Julius Reisteror. On the  Saturday night before the robbery  he had occasion to go to the steamer  Nelson .in company with a friend  named George Gabriel. The two  saw Gabriel's aunt safely on board  the steamer and then started back  uptown.' He and Gabriel were.on  Lake street between 1 and 2 o'clock  when they saw Johnson, the Swede,  who was walking toward the baseball grounds. Johnson was about  100 yards away when they met  Bloomfield and Rowlen, the prisoners. Bloomfield asked them if they  had seen a Swede go down the  street, and Reisterer said that the  Swede had just gone below. > Gabriel, in a josh, said to, Bloomfield  and Rowlen they had better go  after the Swede as he had money.  Bloomfield and Rowlen started  after the Swede and Reisterer did  not seo anything more of any of  them until about 1 o'clock in the  morning.  When Reisterer met Bloomfield  and Rowlen he noticed that Bloomfield hadon a_hard_Jiat,jtnd Row-  len was wearing a soft hat aud  dark clothes." In the morning about  4 o'clock, after he had seen Gabriel  part of the way to the steamer  Reisterer saw Bloomfield again.  This time Bloomfield was wearing a  soft hat and his clothes appeared  dusty. Bloomfield inquired after  Gabriel, and as Reisterer supposed  started to follow him to the steamer.  Reisterer was subjected to a rigid  cross-examination, but his testimony was not shaken in the slightest.  The hearing will be completed today.  '  Some Action Should be Taken.  George Johnstone, who is a member of the school board, says no arrangements have yet been made by  the trustees for meeting chairman  Hamilton of the finance committee  and talking school. arrangements  over. The reception which trustees  Arthur and Swannell received from  the city council on Monday evening was, in his opinion, very discouraging. Trustee Johnstone,  however, is in hopes that some way  may be found around present difficulties by which the city will be  able to secure block 49 for school  purposes, as he doesnot favor tinkering with the old school houso on  Stanley street.  A Misstatement.  .  Montreal,' Juno 5.���Tho statement made in a dispatch from Buffalo wliich has recently appeared  in the newspapers throughout Canada about the Canadian Salt Compauy were, as learned ou the most  reliable authority, exaggerated and  untrue.

A Plucky Conductor.  .   New York, June 5.���"Keep your  seats, there, no harm has been done.  It's    all -right,'   cried    conductor  William Holderman last night and  fell senseless to the floor of his car  with three ribs broken and internal  injuries.    It was his pluck alone  that   prevented   a   panic in   the  crowded     Madison     avenue    car.  Holderman   was  standing   on  the  running board collecting fares.

But mining is   not the  only   business   carried on  iu this  province requiring steam for power  .purposes.   There are more boilers  -used at sawmills   than at quartz;  - - mines. The sawmill owners are  ' not making a great amount of fuss  . over the Steam Boilers Inspection  .- . Act. The Act may not be perfect.  Few laws are. One of the best  ' mechanical engineers in Rossland  says several states, in the Union  have similar laws, and that every  province in the Dominion has just  such a law. He says it would have  been better had the Act recently  passed in this province been submitted to practical engineers for  revision before final adoption,  which is a contention that cannot  well be disputed.     Too many bills  - become laws without proper  con-  ��� sideration, and the one in question  may not be an exception. If there  are defects in the law they can be  remedied'; but the law itself is admittedly legislation iu the right direction; provided, always, that the  inspectors appointed to carry out  its provisions are capable and practical men.

The-business  men of Nelson are not situated as  are the merchants of towns that  have little or no trade outside;  their trade comes largely from  people living in the camps and districts tributary to Nelson. These  people cannot always fix a regular  day on which to come to Nelson to  purchase supplies, and to come on a  certain day and find the stores  closed was, to say the least, disappointing and often annoying.  Nelson   has   the   reputation of  having   the   lowest  taxes of  any  "-town- in���the���countryi==A=-well���  known merchant of Nelson has residence property in   two towns in  'Ontario aud iu one town in the  state of "Washington, as well as a  residence at Nelson. At neither  place is the property as good as the  property at Nelson. In one of the  Ontario towns his taxes last year  were $32.50; at the other, $15.00.'  The property in the town in Washington was taxed at $10. At Nelson he paid $7.50.  A blunder has been made by  one of the departments at Victoria.  A book which purports to be the  "Public and Private Acts of British  Columbia, 1901," has been sent out  from the government printing office. It is not what it purports to  be. Some of the acts are not as  actually passed by the legislature,  but merely copies of bills as they  passed through the committee of  the whole house.  A town is much like an individual. Individuals who allow one  opportunity to slip past them, seldom have a second chance. So  with towns. Nelson has now a  chance to become the most important town in the province, not  even excepting Vaucouver and Victoria. She should not let the opportunity slip.

Nkw Youk, June 5.���Tho Herald  this morning says: At a nieetiiiir of  the delegates from the Central Federated Union to be held tomorrow  official cognizance will be taken of  the strike of members of the International Association of Machinists.  It was said today that the Central  Federated Union would indorse the  strike and urge its members to assist the machinists with contributions of money. At tlie headquarters of the International Association of Machinists Constant Booth,  business head of the association,  said that the strike now really centered about the factory of a well-  known firm wliich manufactured  printing presses. "IE they undertake to start up with non-union  men," said Mr. Booth, "we will tie  up every newspaper and printing  office iu the United States using  their presses. Wo would have won  this strike except for the shops of  this firm and a few others in this  neighborhood, aud we propose to  force the acceptance of our terms  by these people by invoking the aid  of organized labor everywhere."

Chicago, June 5.���A special to  the Tribune from Aurora, Mo., says:  A woman and her son accused of  murder will be lynched if the plans  of a mob in Stone county shall not  bo- frustrated. The charges --'are  that they killed Alice Stallion, sixteen years of age, the woman's  daughter.' They lived near Cape  Fair and the girl's body was found  in the river by fishermen. The  supposition was that she had committed suicide on account .of a love  affair which her mother opposed.  Last night, however, a seven-year-  old child of Mrs. Sfcallion confessed,  saying thafc while Mrs. Stallion held  the-girl=heiustepson4)roke=her=neck=  with a poker.

Born, at the Kootenay Lake General Hospital, to the wife of N.  Cumiuingi-, a daughter.  The water in the Columbia river  at ftobson fell four inches on Tuesday night and was also falling yesterday.  *** S. M. Brydges yesterday sold lots  11 and 12 in block 3(J, coiner of  Cedar ami Carbonate streets, to L.  Lynch of this city for $1600.  The receipts of the Nelson record  office foi the month of May were  $9281.10, and of this $0033 represented the sale of free miners' certificates.  Fireman Smith, of the steam tug  Valhalla, who had his hand badly  crushed in a cogwheel, is.at the  general hospital. He will not lose  the use of his hand.  The city is making another effort  to secure from the government the  land comprised in the present park  reserve as well as control of the  waterfront from Ward street east.  Peter Leclaire' and Tony Ley den  will come before acting county  court judge Forin tomorrow for  trial, and George Pearse will appear  for election upon the charge of  shop-breaking. The Leclaire case  will be tried in camera.  Jesse Coulter of the Second Relief mine is stopping at tha Hume.  He says' the people of Erie have  undertaken to replace the bridge  washed out in order to keep the  trade of the Second Relief from  going to Salmo, and tlie work is  now well under way.  Holley, Mason, Marke & Co., the  big wholesale hardware house of  Spokane, have written secretary  Cameron that their firm will donate  the finest bamboo fishing rod carried in stock-as a prize for any  event the Dominion Day celebration committee may designate.  Archie McDonald started work  yesterday on. tlie grading of tlie  north half of Hoover street, between Stanley and Ward streets.  It is the intention of the council to  leave tlie bank standing on the  south side of thb street, there being  but ��������� $200 .'''appropriated lor the  work.;/;  '<   .        7-��':'-',       ;. x :7  Joseph Howson has decided to  try his hand at the hotel business  and has made.'.-amplication for a  license for the Ottawa hotel at the  second crossing of the Lardo, between Howser and Trout lake. His  application will be passed upon at  a meeting of the commissioners on  Wednesday, June 19th.  The cold weather has solved the  difficulties of the rival steamboat  companies and the Sayward Lumber Company with respect to wharf  accommodation. As the water is  not expected to vise any higher  each steamboat company will be  permitted to use its own float and  room will be found for the Sayward scows.  Telegraphic inquiries were received in Nelson last evening by  the officers of the local Odd Fellows  lodge as to whether Andrew Kirk-  land, the stage driver who lost his  life in Jolly Jack creek, was a  member of their lodge. The local  =lodge=has=no=Eecord=of==.Kirklaud  and the inquiries were transferred  to Rossland.  The report in the Vancouver papers that W. H. Bullock-Webster  of the provincial police department  may succeed chief Stewart of the  Vancouver city police department  is incorrect. Mr. Bullock-Webster  has not applied for the Vancouver  position, is not an applicant for the  position aud would not accept it  were it tendered to him.  Tlie manner in which law costs  run up is exemplified in the recent  litigation over the Billings interest  in tlie Yellowstone property. This  case has not advanced to its first  appeal yet, but up to date Billings  has been called upon to pay taxed  costs amounting to $1700 and his  own costs of $3000. For this expenditure he has an adverse judgment of $10,000, and the case is  probably just started.  What Interest in Sport Is Doing.  Merely to show tlie interest that  is taken in boating at Nelson the  following remarks of one' of the  active members of the Nelson Boat  Club are given : "When I came to  Nelson two years ago there was  little active interest in aquatic  sports and the club had few members who paid the annual fee. Tliis  spring it was 'thought that we  would bo doing very well if we  could muster four crews.. Today  we have ten crews entered for the  regatta on Saturday. It is true,  we are handicapped for boats, as we  have but two; but wo will get boats  as avc got members���by rustling.  No town in tlie province has as fine  a stretch of water as we have, and  I predict that within a year or two,  Nelson will have a crow that will  hold its own with any in Canada."  THE  MONEY APPORTIONED  To the Different Committees.  The Celebration executive committee met last night in the office  of II. R. Cameron. Those present  were: Mayor Fletcher, chairman;  G. W. B. lleathcote, treasurer; H.  R. Cameron, secretary, and Messrs.  Gamble, Chapman, Tierney, Strachan, Playford, Mathews and Houston. Mr. Houston, as chairman of  the finance committee, reported  that the cash subscriptions would  total $3000. After an interchange  of views, the following amounts  were apportioned the respective  committees, with the distinct understanding that the committees  must not make expenditures in excess of the sums apportioned them:  SportH    ?8"0  Water carnival     050  Music and decoration     MX)  KeK'.ttlrt     15(1  Trades procession     300  Keception     150  Total ?3,000  In addition to the cash subscriptions, money will be realized from  gate receipts at the recreation  grounds, and trophies will be donated by outside merchants and  manufacturers. These trophies will  be divided among the different  committees to che best advantage,  and the money realized from gate  receipts will go towards defraying  incidental expenses, such as printing, etc. It was decided that no  advertisements should be printed  on the official program.  MINING   EECORDS.  There were six locations recorded  at the Nelson record ofiice yesterday: A. Gaston recorded the Grey  Eagle at Little Deer Park, one mile  from Arrow lake; Joseph Brunette  recorded the Louise, adjoining the  Grey Eagle; George D. Bell recorded  the Honest Toby, King Edward and  Royal George claims about ei gh t  miles from Salmo; John D. Carr recorded the Rubie on the east fork  of Cottonwood creek, three quarters of a mile from the Nelson &  Fort Sheppard railway.  7 Certificates of work were granted  to A. Gaston on the Nevada; James  Gamiody on the Millie; John C.  Ryan on the Boulder; and A. G.  Shaw on the Blake, Mayflower  Fractional and Maple Leaf Fractional. A bill of sale was recorded in  which Edward Peters transferred  to C. 'D.-'J.* Christie and Alexander  Carrie a one-tenth interest each in  the Argosy and Strand mineral  claims, oh the south fork of Porcupine creek, and adjoining the Big  Horn group.   ;  Are Both Cheerful and Liberal Givers.  The people of   Nelson are both  cheerful   and   liberal givers  as  is  evidenced by the subscriptions to  the   Dominion    Day    Celebration  fund.   Yesterday J. P.

He says things are  rather quiet in Ainsworth, and everything appears to depend upon  tlie big tunnel which Maxwell  Stevenson is running in to get the  Highlander lead at depth. This  tunnel is now in 1500 feet. Three  shifts are being worked, and at the  present rate of progress the tunnel  'should break into the ore body, indicated by the diamond drill, by  the middle of the present mouth.  When this ledge is struck the company will be able to put on quite a  force of men. At the tunnel level  tho Highlander ore appears to be  changing, the chief values being  gold and silver.  Boys Are Practicing Hard.  Tho members of the several  crews that are to compete in the  Nelson Boat Club fours on Saturday are taking advantage of every  possible opportunity for practice,  and from tlie interest manifested  some very good contests in the four-  oared event may be counted on.  Mayor Fletcher's crew were out last  evening and they regard themselves  as capable of pushing the best four  in the regatta. As there are now  nine crews practicing the boats aro  in use virtually all the time. The  Day crew are still the favorites.  TEI,KPHONK 27  ZET.
