STRIKE SITUATION HOPEFUL VIEW TAKEN BY HIGH OFFICIALS. Claim Tliat Several of tho Gangs Who Went Out Monday Have Returned to Work. . Montreal, June 18.���D. McNicholl, the general manager of the C. P. R , spoke very hopefully today of the outcome of the strike of trackmen on tire system. The company believe that time will be on thuir side, and that iu the course of tlie next few days, wheu they have" had time to prrt the whole case before the men individually, those who have gone out will see the advantages which they are sacri- lii-ing and will return to work whilo the company remains disposed to accept their labor. "O.rradvicoH show that, several gangs who went out yesterday have , returned to work today,"' said Mr-. -McNicholl, "and the reports indicate that more will be likt-ly to follow. The strike, however, in by no means'general. In some sections not Lhii per- cent have responded to the call of the committee. Some of the trackmen seem to be under the impression that if they should return to work after having once thrown up their employment they would be discriminated against, but this is not so. The company has no , intention of doing anything of the kind." "Taking at tlio situation all round, I am convinced that the strike is practically over; that it has lix'/Jed out. Many of tho men have not ���yet received onr circulars, showing 'what has been' done for them ; showing that-,advantageous as their .positions were compared with other railways before this strike began, ,w�� have made concessions of a ver-y substantial 'character, and that these place them far beyond .what other companies who are our competitors in the different parts of the system are offering. The public need have no apprehension whatever as regards the conditions of the track. Every mile of track is being patrolled. The line* is in good shape and is being thoroughly taken care" of. This is one of the demands of th'e committee, whicli tlie railway company did not grant: All maintenance of way department employes shall be granted passes once"a month to and from any point on the road-master's division they are employed on, provided ��� that not more than one-half of the force will be absent from duty at any one time." ators interviewed today say that they have nothing to .strike for. Bkandon, Man., June IS.���Not 10 per cent of the C. 1*. IL. sectionmen have gone ont. Labor is very plentiful, aud all vacancies can be readily filled. 'A prominent politician here makes the statement that the condition of-the railway trackmen is better than the average laborer, they having au assured position all the year round. 'Newport.

Was Extremely Popular in Detroit, Where He Inaugurated Many Reforms. Martin Clair Was Suffccited. The Dawson 2\Tews of May 31st gives the following accouut of how Mar-tin Clair, a miner who was well known iu Kootenay, met his death in a mine not far- from Daw.sou. The News says: "A coroner's inquest was held at the Forks by captain McDonuell on the death of Martin Clair-, who was found dead at the bottom of a 25 foot shaft on Little Skookuiu hill. The "jury decided Clair died from suffocation from the effects of gas breathed while in the mine, through his own carelessness, and recommended that the mine be ventilated before again being used. Clair was a miner. He disappeared Friday.night, and was found dead Saturday at the bottom of the shaft of a mine opposite No. 2, Bonanza. Tie has a family in Scotland. The body is being brought to Dawson today." - THE REASON WHY CAPITAL McAdam. N. B., June 18.��� Threats are being made by some of the striking C. P. R. trackmen to the effect that now they have gone out they are going to demand from the compauy more tlmn they originally intended. Representations are being sent to the company in Montreal to call mass labor- meetings in the largo cities to try to create public sympathy aud get the newspapersto talk, or else it may be thought that thero is really no strike. St. John, N. B., June 18.���Several of the C. P. li. section gangs here have returned to work. Everything is quiet. Sectionmen on the government railways are watching the issue with a good deal of interest, as they feel if the C. P. R. men, who already have higher pay than they have, get another advance it will be their turn next. 'Montreal, June IS.���Reports received here from different points along the C. P. R. show that the whole system is being thoroughly patrolled, that trains are running as usual, and that the trackmen's strike has not interfered with the regular service. At a lato hour tonight reports from all quarters show that a large number of the foremen are returning to work and bringing the section men with them. The statement in an evening paper that the carpenters employed by the G. P. R. had gone ont iu sympathy with the striking trackmen is entirely unfounded. It is reported that J. T. Wilson of St. Louis, Mo., official organizer for the trackmen, is very much dis- anpointpd thti, he cannot persuade the C. P. R. telegraph operators to take any hand iu the strike. Oper- Does Not Seek British Columbia. II. 13'. Thomson, ex-aldermau of Nelson and ex-manager of Turner, Beeton ��fc Co.'s Nelson branch house, who h-ft Nelson to take the management of a trading syndicate located at Quesnel 1 in Cariboo, has been on a trip to the old country since last December. He arrived in Nelson day before yesterday on his1 return', and tells his friends some amusing experiences he had to go through while en route iu the West. Speak*uTg'i"��f*Ttr7ies~iir"the old country, Mr. Thomson says that the old country has had four or- five years of 'great prosperity, and that a period of quieter times is sure to follow. Capital is not seeking British Columbia" for investment, for the reason that tlie returns on the capital so far invested here have not been so good as to create,a favorable impression. On the other hand, capital is easily obtained for speculative mining in West Africa. Mr. Thomson will remain here for a time. Looking for a Lost Cup Two years ago J. Fred Hume donated a cup to be played for by the Jaero-se teams for the championship of Kootenay, and it was won that year by the Nelson team. Since then the cup has disappeared. Yesterday an effort was made to "loeateTi t". Some-o f "the- boys- said" the genial J. Fred had merely made a bluff and had not purchased the cup at all. Others said that "Jakie"' Dover had knocked down the cup after getting paid for it. : Others, again, claimed that "Dave" Carley! who was chairman of the sports committee that year, had sold the cup and used the proceeds to buy a paper cuttor. During; the discus? sioii.tbe donor of the cup came along, and cwhen the accusation against him was repeated, he was indignant, and said the cup was for a time in "BUly" Thurman's window. '���Jakie" Dover, who was also .-present, made a speech on the question at issue. He said, "You know I know nothing at all about it. At that time I was selling so much that I could not keep track of anything." The delegation who were discussing the question decided to go to Thurman's iu a body and demand the cup. "Billy" was out, . but his partner was in. Asked as to the whereabouts of the cup, he replied: "Why, yes; it is knocking around here somewhere," and he began looking among some odds aud ends under a cigar counter. The cup has not been found, bub the boys are hot on its trail. London, June IS.���Ex-governor Pingree of Michigan died today.

Nkw York, June 18.���It was.an-' nounced today by the International Association of Machinists that the 750 men involved in the sti ike at Lexington Mountain's Ledges. The development of the Imperial and Eva groups by the London and British Columbia Gold Fields is ex-' pected to bring into prominence the gold ledges of Lexington mountain in the Lardeau. This is a comparatively new district, aud although1 the entire mountain has been staked very little development -has-been done outside the-proporties- held by the Imperial Development Syndicate, the most promising of which are now virtually under bond to the London and B. C. Gold Fields. Such work as has been done on the mountain, however, would point to the conclusion that Lexington mountain is a distinctively gold district, very little galena having been encountered. On the Eva and Imperial groups the work done lias, exposed two ledges .of gold-bearing quartz, running parallel to each other and about.{150 feet afjart. The largest of these is about sixteen feet in width, and what is regarded as a conservative estimate on the value of the ore places it at $20 to the toil' The other ledge is much smaller, but is much more clearly defiped, having two, smooth walls! The ore in this ledge is very rich, gold being visible in many of the specimens, so that it admits of some very fancy assays. The general feeling throughout the district is that Lexington mountain is peculiarly fortunate in getting the Loudon and B. C. company interested in its development. This company not only has ample means for carrying on the necessary work to thoroughly develop the 'property, but it has had phenomenal luck with all of tlm properties it has taken hold of. It is on the cards for the London and .B. C. to produce another Ymir in the Imperial and Eva properties, and in the case of the Lardeau properties it has a much more favorable showing to start in with. Rossland, June 18.���Dal Hawkins, lightweight champion of tbe Pacific Coast, defeated Billy Armstrong, champion of British Columbia, here tonight in the sixth round. The contest was fast and scientific and the best man won. In the first threo rounds honors were evenly divided, Armstrong forcing the fighting and Hawkins playing a waiting game. After the first of the fourth Hawkins took the offensive; In the fifth he was still more aggressive, and in the sixth he forced the fighting. The sixth and lastround opened with Armstrong landing a left hander on Hawkins' nose.* Hawkins reciprocated with left and right hands, and after Armstrong had landed lightly with his left the men clinched. As they were together Armstrong swore vigorously at one of the spectators on the stage, who had been applauding Hawkins in a manner that Armstrong thought offensive. On the conclusion of the clinch Armstrong left an opening and Hawkins lauded a vicious upper cut ��� similar to those which have landed so many fights for him. The blow ���took Armstrong in the neck below the point of the jaw and staggered him. He went'across the stage on his heels, eyes glass and arms rigid. Hawkins followed his man and although .Armstrong attempted a counter the effort was weak and Hawkins finished him with a left to .the; jaw anda right-to. the neck.t 'Armstrong" fell in the "corner, rolled' on his face and was counted out. He recovered within a few minutes. Armstrong had a bad hand and received a cocaine injection in the member before' entering the ring, although it was conceded that he was beaten on the merits of the fight.

It is from them.that the bank obtained most,of the 25,-** iy& 125,000"ffanes," which'' represents'its ~\ ���*$ net profits during the business year 1000-1. Large profits they seem to: be, but in view of the fact that' there was ,an exposition in Paris during 1900, and that most of tho foreign visitors tried their luck at/< ?Z,M Monte Carlo, they are really extra- - ordinarily small. "ln 1880, during the previous ex- r position in Paris, the profits of the bank amounted to 37,000,000 francs; > yet this year they are only 23,000,- 000. The Boer war has also hurt business, for it has kept away the English, who are, as a rule, the best patrons of the bank. 'Another cause of the poor business is the unquestionable fact that people are becoming more cautious about playing every year. A proof of this" is the fact that the number of suicides has lately decreased. Formerly it was-not^unasual���for-a-distracted- player to kill himself, but now we very seldom hear of such an occurrence. "In short, the outlook for the bank is extremely bad, and if the players continue as cautious as they* are now the dividends of the shareholders will speedily fall to 30 or 25 per cent. During the past business year a dividend of 42 per cent was declared, but this was very small as compared with the profits during those years when Blanc still wielded the scepter in Monte Carlo and coined millions out of nothing. Others, however, besides the bank are now suffering. In former-years the French press received from one to two million francs annually from the bank, but recently their allowance was cut down to 750,000> francs, and last year they got only 500,000. On the other hand, the civil list of the prince of Monaco has been increased from 1,250,000 to 1,750,000 francs, and the bishop of Monaco, who formerly received 30,000, now receives 50,000 francs. The prince's army costs the bank 000,000 francs, but, unless business- improves very soon, it is practically certain that the prince will set the other powers of Europe a good ex^ ample by disbanding his army."

C. - Thr more the outbursts against our mining laws are investigated, ' the more evident it is that the outbursts are not based on facts. They were started in an attempt to discredit a government, and are now kept up in the hope that the real cause of the depression in'mining will be overlooked, and the depres-. ��� sion attributed to a cause that has little'to do with the question. No country has a better location law; in no country can claims be held ' with,less actual work; the cost of procuiiuga crown grant is less in this province than in auy other country; it has never been charged j that our officials or our courts are corrupt; in no country have merchants been more liberal in extending credit; Uritish Columbia is not the only mining country that has aneight-hour'day for men working underground; the rate of taxation is extremely liberal, for no taxes are paid unless a mine' is shipping ore. If these are not statements of fact, let them be disproved, not by the vaporing mouthings of men -who-pose-around-hotel3=as=inining= men and who have not the capacity to intelligently muck in a mine, but by comparing the law in force in other mining countries with those in force in British Columbia, and by comparing the reports of mining companies operating in other countries with thoso operating in tliis province. Facts are what tl.e people want, and they will no longer iw-eopt the mouthings of self styled mining 'men as any evidence at nil. "Wim*- the ni'-n who are declaiming UL'Jiirrst the mining laws of British Columbia give the names of the .successful British mining companies operating i��> British Columbia? "Will they then give the names of th-; British mining companies operating in this province that have been rank failures? Afterwards, will they be'so kind as to give tlie real reasons that caused these British mining companies to be failures? This ii the information that the people iu. the old country want. One of the large mining companies operating at Butte, Montana, is namsd the " Colusa-Parrot Company.". Last year it mined 23l.,Uo5 tons of ore, of the average value of $8.27 per toil. The cost of mining the ore was $8.01 and transporting it to a .smelter 27A cents per ton. Smelting charges were $3.35. Total charged for mining, transporting, /and smelting $7-.2ty, which leaves $1.03i a ton as profit. These figures show that over in Montana, at one of the greatest mining camps in the world, ore that is worth only $8.27 per ton is mined and smelted at a profit. .Why do not the managers of some of the big low-grade niines in British Columbia give figures as to the value of the ore mined, the cost of transporting the ore to smelters, and the charge per ton for i-melting? These are the (ignres that the people' want to see in print. They no longer care to hear the mere opinions of vapid ranters who' poso as mine, managers ; they want facts: Imagine theSpokaneSpokesman- Review getting it's Associated Press reports via Seattle. Yet, every line of Associated Press report that is received at Nelson and Rossland first goes to Vancouver, and is then filtered back from that one-horse town to the two great commercial cities of Eastern British Columbia. This is what makes a newspaper tired. Thb Rossland Miner of Saturday, Hmnt9=editorial=columnsr=has==what purports to be au interview between a reporter of the London Times and the agent-general of British Columbia some time in July next. The Miner makes one mistake in the interview. The London Times does not employ fools for reporters. Is there a single mine in British Columbia owned, managed, and operated by oltl country men exclusively that is irow a success? Ia thero a single mine that was owned, managed, and operated by Americans successfully previous to its sale to old countrymen which is now successfully operated ? If not, why not? ^_ Alaskan Railroad Venture. SEjVTTIjE. June IS. ���From late advices it is evident that a trans- Alaskan railroad will be constructed in the near future. Briefly stated, it is proposed to build a steel highway from lliamna Bay on the southern shore of the Alaskan pwn- insula to Nome, Teller City and Behring straits. The preliminary surveys have just been completed by Norman R. Smith. The heavy financial bankers of the undertaking are said to be eastern capitalists.

I CITY LOCAL HEWS The Tribune will always be pleased to receive and pay for exclusive news. It does not care for ,the news that is handed in.with the remark: "O, I am giving this to both papers." The city engineer can get an object lesson in sidewalk grades by carefully examining and comparing the sidewalk at. tho corner of the Bank of Montreal nnd'<at the Elliot block corner with that at the corner of the Broken Hill block and the Turner-Boeckh block. The Ymir mine is now making regular shipments of concentrates to the local smelter. These shipments -of concentrates have been'-'coming in for the past two'weeks at the rate of a carload per day; and there are snid to be still considerable of them at the mine awaiting shipment. City engineer McCulloch expects to have the outlet for the west Baker street sewer completed today, when connections- on Bakor and Vernon Rireets west of Kootenay may be made. Tomorrow a start will be made on the sewer work ordered in the upper portion of the city. Word was received in Nelson yesterday to tne effect that Dr. E. C. Arthur had been appointed grand warden of the grand lodge I. O. O. F.. and that A. H. Clements had been appointed grand inside sentinel of the grand encampment. The news of these" appointments will be received with pleasure by the members of the order in this city. '"Billy" Grant who for several years was employed as bookkeeper for P.. Burns & Company of this city, is now Mackenzie & Mann's right bower in the railway construction which they have in hand in the provinces of Manitoba and Ontario. "Billy" is credited with having made, a raise of S23.000 in the recent jump of Northern Pacific stock. A. B. Gray of the Express Cigar Company, has now at the C. P. R. depot 10 cases of Manila cigars which were im-, ported direct from Manila to this city. The Express Cigar Company has made arrangements for p. bonded warhouse, and ,-will give special attention to imported lines in the cigar trade in addition to handling the best brands of Canadian made cigars. ��� John Lynch has completed his contract for the supplying of tlie poles required for the electric light service, having delivered the. last two cars ofj -poles at the mountain, station yesterday. Mr. Lynch will leave for Rossland today, where he will complete his ,arrangements for the carrying out of the work outlined on the Referendum group on Forty-nine creek. He expects to return to Nelson and make a start on the Referendum group this week. Insptctor Wilson, of the educational department, will begin tho hi-jh sc-huol examinations today, and the high school *��ntranco examinations tomorrow it is not yet known h >w nurny candidate will offer for lhe high school entrance examinations, '.iut it is thought that there will be at least twenty applicants from the points covered In the Nel.son district, ��� Inspector Wilson states that the people of Greenwood are making a {Treat effort to have their city recognized as the educational center of the Boundary district, The Dominion Day celebration fund ���was swelled by $30 yesterday. Mrs. Scott "of_th"e~Nelson_Ca"fe"_sub's��cribed7!ii20r_an"d= Patenaude Brothers, the jewelers, $10. ".In-the'fall of 1892 the publishers of The Tribune placed an order for paner with Barber & Ellis, paper dealers, Toronto, and it was. filled satisfactorily without a Question being asked. .The' same firm has sold The Tribune the bulk of its stationery ever since, and yesterday their representative, J. R. Easton. was in Nelson and received one of the largest orders for flat paper ever given him by, a western printing office. Nq\v that''.tho directors of the public library have received a municipal grant sufficient to enable them to Icood the library going for several months it will ..not be amiss.;:to- suggest that they de- viseisome other system, than that of Imposing a fine in cases in which books are kept out for a greater.period than thrit ni'escribed.in the, rules of the library. The'fine is objectionable to many who would prefer postirg a cash deposit with the library sufficient to cover the co3t of any book that might be taken out. the same to be forfeited in the event of any book not being re- ti.rned. ~~The Nelson smelter is now producing rbout 25 tons of lead bullion per tlav.. which uses up about 140 tons of ore. It will thus be seen that the operation >f the local smelter furnishes the Cara- dian Pacific railway with an outward business from Nelson of over $400 per day in the movement of the bullion alone./if to this is added the wafres paid by the smelting company to the men directly employed, as well as the wages earned by the men employed in handling the ores and fluxes coming into the smelter, "a very pood idea may be formed of the advantage which the operation is to this city. Although yesterday was the second day.of the C. P. R. roadmen's strike, it has po far failed to have, any effect on the Koot-jnay division of the Canadian Pacific system. So far ns known there was not a. man on any of the branch lines running into Nelson who had quit work by reason of the strike order. Opinion differs very widely as to whether th'e trackmen on the Kootenay division are well organized. Some hold that the fact that none of them hav gone out is good evidence that there in little or no organization among thorn, but others who profess to be well in formed say that the men on the Ko'ito- ray division have not yet received word to go out. but that when they do they will obey the summons. The second synod of the diocese of Kootenay will open in St. Saviour's church this morning. It is expected that upwards of thirty clergy and lay delegates will bo in attendance. The business of the session will be chiefly of a routine nature. Angus Lamont and James Pollock of Princeton are reported to have received $13,000 yesterday as the purchase price of 1280 acres of coal lands in the Simil- 1-i.meon valley, tlie purchasers being the Similkameen Valley Company, Limited. This company now owns 7G80 acres of coal hinds in this valley, upon wliich development work is to be undertaken nt once. At a meeting of the retail clerks held last evening it was decided to have an excursion on the steamer Mor'ie on Thursday afternoon. The steamer will leave the city wharf at 2 o'clock, and run up the lake as far as Balfour. Here a stop of half an hour will be made. On the return trip to Nelson the steamer will be due at the city wharf at 6 p. m. The fare for the round trin has been placed at 50 cents. George E. Foster, formerly minister of finance in the Conservative administrations which preceded the present one is one of the.lucky shareholders in the Imperial Development Syndicate, which is about to close a very desirable deal with-tne London'ft British. Columbia Gold Fields for some eleven claims in the Lardeau. During the past few years Mr. Foster has sunk considerable money in the development of British Columbia properties, from which he has had comparatively small returns, and the knowledge that he is likely to make a good turn-over on his Imperial Development holdings will be received with satisfaction, as Mr. Foster deserves good luck. The' Ontario Powder Works has decided to go out of the powder m-mufac- lurins business, wliich for some time past it has carried on on its promises opposite Five-mile point. Advances in Ihe cost of :-aw materials, which could not be got out of the manufactured article are said to be the company's chief reasons for retiring; from the'business of: manufacturing for the Kootenay market. The company has now instructed Messrs. Charles A. Waterman & Co. to sell by public auction the whole of the company's real estate, plant, and fixtures. This 'sale has been fixed' for Tuesday, July,, 30th, and an advertisement of the same appears in another column. COUNTY COURT TANGLES Straightened Out Yesterday. Yesterday's 'session of the county court was occupied in settling a number of small' disputes, and -the experience of the day went to show that the smaller the amount the more difficulty there is of effecting a settlement. The case of; Urquhart vs. the New North Fork Mining Company was an action brought by'the plaintiff to recover the sum of $107, being the amount alleged to be due for wages for work performed upon the defendant company's property near'-Erie. The defendants: sought to have a setoff entered for some $00, being the amount due to the company by the plaintiff by reason of a ci.II upon some stock held by him. The counter claim was shut out. but the defence was able to cut down the balance due for wages'to $4.42, and judgment for this amount was entered on the understanding that execution shall not issue until the matter of the claim for arrears of assessment is' disposed of, provided suit is entered within the next ten da**s. Collins vs. Nqyes was another Erie case in which the plaintiff, a hotel- keeper, sought to recover the sum of $26.30. the amount of. a board bill. The =deiendant=owed=a=bar=bill=as=well-as=a= board bill and paid $50 on account. This amount, it was endeavored to prove, should have been applied on the board bill, but the plaintiff applied it on the liquor account. Judgment was given for the full amount claimed and $24 costs. The case of MeLeod vs. ,Anton Zet- tler was an action'over a plastering job, the amount in dispute being $22. The point ln dispute was whether the plastering was to be done by contract or by day's work, the plaintiff seeking to establish a contract. The evidence taken was so contradictory that the court decided to continue the case so that some other testimony-could be secured. In the case of Zattoni vs. the Western Canada Accident Association, an action to recover the sum of $56. the defence secured an adjournment upon terms, the ���efence to pay the costs of the day iD any event. Radcliffe vs. Provost was an action to recover the sum of $50 for work performed upon a mineral claim.* It proved to be a very much mixed up case, the witnesses contradicting each other point blank. Judgment was given for- the plaintiff for the full amount claimed, but without costs. TKIjKI'HONK 27 si. :r-__~:eii:e_s sd go PAINTS, OILS A.ND GLASS. GARDEN TOOLS.

Title | The Nelson Tribune |
Publisher | Nelson, B.C. : Tribune Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1901-06-19 |
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. |
