o ESTABLISHED 1892 TUESDAY MOKNING, NOVEMBER 19, 1901 DAILY EDITION TIB MW TREATY ENGLAND WAVES SOME OF HER RIGHTS UNDER CLAYTON-BULWER CONVENTION���ENGLISH PRESS COMMENT. WASHINGTON. November 1.8.���Thc new Hay-Pauncefote treaty was signed to-lay at 12:05 by secretary Hay for the United Slates ana lord Pauncefote, the British ambassador, for Groat Britain. This treaty is intended to replace the first Hay-Pauncefote treaty. That contention was amended so by the United States senate at its last session that the British government declined to ratify it. Within a few weeks negotiations began afresh between Hay and Pauncefote, which has resulted in thc signature " of a new treaty drawn with special reference to the objections made by Great Britain. From a due sense of courtesy which must be observed towards the United States senate wherever a treaty is concerned the state department is stopped from making public the text of the new convention and it will remain a secret until the senate shall break tho seal of confidence. It is stated that various publications which have been mado of the alleged text of the treaty are all erroneous_and conjectural, though in view of. the rath2r tree ' admissions it has beci possible by the use of the text of this treaty to construct one similar in general terms to Lhe new conventicn. Tlie principal point of difference between the new and the failed treaty is tlie withdrawal of Great Britain from "the joint guarantee of the iH-utiality of the-canal, thus leaving the United States-the sole guarantee. Tho section of the old. provision respecting [f the right to fortify the canal leaves V that riglft by inference. optional with ^he United States. All commerce. of. whatever nationality passing through the canal will fare alike. There will be no discrimination in rates of the United States shipping. Otherwise the new treaty in scope is similar to last year's treaty. It replaces technically the Clayton-Bulwer treaty concluded on April 10th. 1S50. By the teims of.-, that old condition the United States and Great Britain agreed that neither should seek anv advantage in the right of transit across tho isthmus. By the'new convention Great Britain yields her right in favor of the United States, which is thus at liberty to construct a canal. Nothing more remains to be done in resrard to the signing ol the Hay-Paun- c'-fote treaty which took place at 12:05 today before the senate meots or indeed until the treaty shall have been ratified, rejected or amended. If.it should oe ratified the state department will proceed immediately to i pgctiate the treaties with Ccsta Rica and Nicaragua, for which it has already arranged in ���protocols���pending���-before���the���senata- which will permit, the coral to be constructed and pi escribe the terms tip-on which the consent of Costa Rica a?,.d Nicaragua are given. It.was in anticipation of this a'cticn, it is presumed, that tho Nicaraguan government receit- ly denounced the treaty of trade and commerce witi the United States. This treaty contained directions conveying rights as to canal construction which are to ho replaced by more modern provisions. There was no particular ceremony connected with the signature today of the important convention. Lord Pauncefote had been indisposed for several days past and it was not'expected that the treaty would be signed before the end of the current week. However, to the surprise of the utato departme.it officials, the ambasHudor appeared at the department about noon and the work of signing the treaty was si-on dispatched. The scene was in the historic diplomatic chamber of the state department and Itsides the principals, secretary Hay and lc.rd Pauncefote. there were pressnt Sidney Smith, chief of the diplomatic bureau of the United States state department; Percy Wynd- fram, the second secretary of the British embassy; William Gwyn and Edward Savoy, the secreary of state's pri ���vate messenger, whose duty it was to attend to the placing of the seals. The treaty was signed by secretary Hay ...with a gold pen in'a silver* penholder, which had been used in the signature of other conventions and is the personal property of the secretary.^ LONDON, November 18.���The Westminster Clazette publishes an article this afternoon contending.that from a British view point it is desirable that thc United States should build exclusively and guarantee the neutrality of the isthmian canal, and that if lord Lansdowne shall obtain full commar- e.ial privileges on the canal for Great Britain the-treaty will not be wholly ciie-sided. The article concludes with advising the public to expect and to be pi spared to accept a settlement which ���will substantially give us all we want, but which outwardly will not appear to be a triumph of diplomacy. By th-j blundering of American statesmen we vere put in an embarrassing position last year, and we will show some mag- ���nanmity if, for the sake of peace and .good will, we approach the new settle ment without a rcollection of the event, l.-jl use remember that we have had some recent success in dealings with America. The Behring sea award and the Venezuelan treaty were both substantially in our favor, and if we get open water in the canal we shall he the E?iners by the loss of the Clf.yton-Bul- wer treaty. The Pall Mall Gazette takes a similar vi*jw of the matter and says: "We are surrendering a right we never seriously think of exercising, but which might be infringed at any moment to the serious detriment of British dignity. On the other hand, it is understood that 'compensation will he found in the absence of heavy toll tariff restrictions. The canal is e> pec ted to be thrown open to the world, and the opening of that door will be the prize the British government obtained for the abandonment of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty." Thc St. James Gazette says: "We have confidence that the American pao- plc will recognize in the abandonment of the CI ly ton-Bui wer treaty a further sign of the value we set on their good will and the earnestness of our desire to help forward their aspirations. Her greatness and the hearty relation between mother and daughter are more to us than academic treaty rights." $IO,OOOWO_TH OF DIAMONDS Stolen From Portland Hotel. PORTLAND, Oregon, November 18.��� E. P. Lowenthal. a diamond broker of New York, ai rived here Saturday last and registered at the Portland hotel. He was assigned to a room on the ground floor of the hotel and placed a trunk containing diamonds valued at $10,000 and $200 in gold in the room. Mr. Lowenthal states that he left the hotel between 5 and 10 o'clock last evening, and that when he returned he found - the trunk open and the diamonds ana cash missing. Detectives were " summoned and from a hasty examination arrived at tho conclusion that as the janitor of ��t.he hotel had a bunch of keys in the pocket of a pair of trousers which were hanging in a closet in the basement and the keys were missing the thief, who was evidently -well posted in the basement of tho hotel, secured these keys and thus effected an entrance to Mr. Lowenthal's. room. It is supposed that the robber after securing his. plunder made his way through a folding door to the basement and placing a ladder against tha wall of the hotel courton Seventh street and mado good his escape. copper, ccvt'ied with waste soaked in vater. Then electrician Graham went to tlie switch! osirc. and threw on the current. It was supposed to convey the powerful current into the beast but it was observed that there was no flash when tho switch was thrown and the electrodes nu nifested none of the ordinary symptcms. Even the water in the waste was not evaporated ard the elephant stood as if. at his meals. He picked up a plank and waved it to and fro. After a few minutes theo switch "was thrown back and the elephant returned to its quarters. Mr. Bostock may now exhibit him as an elephant proof against the electric current.

WHY PROPERTY-OWNERS SHOULD VOTE AGAINST THE WEST KOOTENAY POWER & LIGHT COMPANY BY-LAW TODAY. FRENCHMEN CET RIOTOUS 3200 Volts Didn't Feaze Him. BUFFALO, November 18.���After the proposed public execution of the elephant Jumbo had boen stopped by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals today, a private attempt was made. The elephant was not even scared by the electrodes, and the few witnesses not in the employ of Frank C. Bostock, the animal trainer, thought no current was sent through the wires. Upwards of one thousand people, had paid 50 cents each to get into the-stadium today to see the execution. While they were getting in Mr. Bostock was called up on the phone by mayor Diehl. who asked him not to allow the execution to be made publicly, as he thought it would reflect on the city. Former postmaster-geneial Wilson S. Bicsell, for the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, made a protest and an injunction against the deed was threatened. Irfluenced by these requests, Mr. Bostock announced to the crowd that the execution would not take place and the money was refunded to ticket holders. Mr. Bostcc.k said the elepharvt was highly dangerous, and must die in private before night. He brought Jumbo into the stadium at o o'clock, chained to two smaller elephants. The man killer was takn on a platform and chained to a row of stakes. Two heavy electric wires had been run into the stadium and the current was conti oiled by a switch on the wall. One was supposed to carry a current of 1000. the ether 2200 volts. Four electrodes attached to the wires were strapped to tho elephant, two behind Lively Scenes in Chamber of Deputies. PARIS, November 18.���An uproarious riot occurred today in the chamber of deputies. during the discussion of the bill authorizing a loan of 265,000.000 -francs-in-three-per-cent-perpelual-rentas to reimburse the treasury for its outlay as a result of the Chinese expedition and to, pay indemnities to French sufferers in China. M. Hubbard reported that tho budget commission proposed to reduce the amount of the loan to 210,- 000,000 francs because objection was taken that France should advance indemnities to the religious associations and financial enterprises. M. Hubbard's report was extremely anti-clerical. M. Ribot (Republican) replied to M. Hut- bard, protesting against his report, which he denounced as shameful, whereupon M. Berteaux (Socialist) exclaimed that M. Ribot deserved to have his ears boxed. A.t this the Centrists vehemently protested, while the Socialists cheered. Amid the din M. Deschanet, president of the chamber, called upon M. Berteaux to withdraw. . This M. Berteaux refused to do and renewed outcries and hanging of desks, resulted. M. Deschanet continued ringing his bell until the hubbub was subdued, when he asked the chamber to censure-M. Berteaux. This was voted. M. Ribot then resumed his reply to M. Hubbard's report, but the Socialists commenced their noisy opposition, while the Centrists responded equally loudly until the uproar became so deafening and continuous that M. Deschanet after vainly clanging his bell and calling for ojder left th-3 chair and the session was suspended. Subsequently the session was resumed and M. Ribot concluded his speech. The chamber then adjourned. Punished for Dueling.

These electa des wc*re made of J plague. The silly' electioneering circular issued by -mayor Fletcher and aldermen Hamilton, Gillett, Pateison, and Selous states that the property-owners opposed to the West Kootenay Power & Light Company by-law do not use arguments or give reasons for opposing it;r they simply use vile insinuations against the motives of the mayor and the four aldermen who favor the bylaw. If Thc Tribune reported street gossip, it could give several columns of opinions that might ieflect on the motives that actuate mayor Fletcher and .aldermen Hamilton, Gillett, Paterson. and Selous,- and their able adjutant, Charles Augustus Waterman, in their efforts to get. the property-owners of Nelson to ratify a deal that certainly nosns loss to the city, however much gain it may irean to the West Kootenay Power & Light Company and others. But The Tribune "will discuss the question at .is-suo from the standpoint lhat "all men are like Caesar's wife, above resrofich. First. The- people of Nelson hayo declared in favor of municipal ownership of public utilities, snd in canning out that prirciple have expended over $70,- 000 on an electric lighting plant and over $100,000 on a waterworks system. Every time the property-owners have teen asked to ratify by-laws for the pui pose of raising money- to extend these two utilities the by-laws have been ratified by large majorities. Therefore it cannot be said that the property- r'owi.ers of Nelson are unwilling to further continue ou tlie lines on which they hf:ve made such "a good beginning. Seccnd. Both the electric. ��� lighting ana waterworks systems have been nroney-makers for the* city; they have both paid operating and maintenance e>perses, irterest and ' sinking fund charges, and have* turned in thousands of dollars in addition, money which was used -ir grading si reefs, building sidewalks, and paying other general expenses of the city. Third. The rrofiifc> made in operating the electric lighting and waterworks systems have kept real estate taxes lower in Nelson than in- any other" city in British Columbia. Fourth. Ir. operating the electric lighting and waterworks systems, the city has acquired several valuable water records, one of which is for water from Kootenay river at a point about ten miles west of the city. In order to make this last-named record of any -usc,-a-sitemijst-be-acf|uired-for-a-power- station. This site has been selected, surveyed, and applied for; but the application for purchase is'being opposed by the West Kootenay Power & Light Company; a company that is 'seeking to secure absolute control of all the water in Kootenay river by getting title-to all the land that can possibly be utilized for sites for power stations. Fifth. The lciger the citj' delays action in securing the title to the land it has applied for, the more difficulty it will have in securing title; and the ratification of the by-law to be voted or. today will be an intimation to the provincial goveri ment that the city is not in earnest in pressing its claims for the land in question. . Sixth. The proposed by-law is entirely one-sided; ard all in favor of the West Koot'.-i-ny Power & Light Company. The clause which binds the city to pay for pewer on the basis of the highest load carried during any month for all the er.suing months is not such a one as would be made by men who had only the best interests of the city in view. Seventh. The contention of the West Kotenay Power & Li^ht Company that they cannot r-npply the city with power unless an agreement is entered into is .absurd, for has nut the company been supplying P. Burns & Co. with both power and light for nearly two years, end tl-.at two over lines built by the city at an expense of nearly. $1000, for which the city has not charged eithei P. Burns & Co. or the- West Kootenay Power & Light Company one cent for the use of such wires? . Eighth. Thi** tramway company claims it is being badly used by the city, inasmuch as they are not allowed to dispose of their surplus power to consumers direct. In other words, they are being badly used for not being given the right to engage in tho electric lighting business in Nelpon. That company made a bad baigain with the West Kootenay Pcwer & Light Company, inasmuch as they arc.paying for twice the power they use. ar.d the bargain has three moro ycrirs to run. Becnuse the tramway company made a bad bargain, is that nny reason why the City of Nelson should mfko a worse one? Ninth. The trtmway con pany gets no benefit out of the proposed deal between the city and ihe West Kootenay Power & Light Company, other than the power company promises to pay the wages of the two men employed at the power company's ��ub-station, wag��s now paid by tlie tramway company. This is mere moonshine, for the power company has contracted to supply the Hall Mines smelter with power, and the power so contracted for will be delivered at the same sub-station as is now used by the tramway company. So, is it likely that the tramway company would continue to pay the wages of men who are controlling machinery used to deliver power to the smelter? Tenth. Why is the West Kootenay. Power & Light Company so anxious to get an entrance into the city of Nelson, -jf it is not in the hope that some day it will be able to secure that rich plum, the electric lighting business of the city? If it has been able to secure the willing aid of a mayor and four aldermen after three years' of effort, in six years they may be able to capture the city council solid. Eleventh. The property-owners of Nelson'want to see the town advance, for only by its advancement can real estate values be maintained or enhanced. This advancement can only te-brought about by the city being in a position to offer advantages to those .wishing to locate hero to engage in industrial enterprises. What advantages could Nelson offer anyone if the West Kootenay Power & Light Company is allowed to secure a monopoly of the water in Kootenay river, or if that company controls the electric lighting or sale of electric power in Nelson? Twelfth. IF THE CITY OF NELSON WAS IN A POSITION TO SUPPLY POWER, THE PROPOSED LEAD SMELTER AND REFINERY WOULD BE LOCATED HERE WITHOUT ANY QUESTION. If this is a statement of fact regarding one industry that means so much for the whole of Kootenay,, why is it not equally true'of other industries? ^The above are some of the reasons why property-owners should oppose the by-law on which a vote will be taken today. In none of them are any insinuations against mayor Fletcher or the four aldermen who are supporting him, But a mayor and aldermen who consort with men who-were never known to work for any scheme if there was not something in it for them should not expect to be looked upon without suspicion. Property-owners who mark their ballots as below will make no mistake today: with the Canadian government in regard to an offer made some time ago in connection with the Merritt affair. Tlie government then offered Imperial authorities facilities for recruiting in Canada. Great Britain wants mounted infantry and it is likely that an arrangement will be made for recruiting a force here. Venezuela-Co'orabia Armistice. WILLEMSTADT, Island of Curaco, November 18.���Owing to the very strict censorship maintained in Venezuela1 it is impossible to learn details of the Venezuelan-Colombia .armistice. Because of the flooded condition of the frontier country news of this agreement comes out slowly. It is reported this armistice was also signed between the Colombian liberals and revolutionists and the Colombian government and that it terminates November 20th. 1W ON B1C0BD , Drapged to Death hy a Horse*, LANCASTER, Pennsylvania, November 18.���Michael Rendler, a.farmer of "Mount Joy township, was dragged to death by a horse today. Rendler was thrown from the horse he was riding and the animal ran for a quarter of a mile, when it turned and came back to the farm; dragging Rendler.

This morning the body of Feritz Monitor was found entombed in a room on the west side. He wis living, but a few hours more no dcubt would have brought death. For six hours physicians worked with him before he was restored to consciousness. He is yet feeble, but is likely to recover. There was great rejoicing when the news spread that he was recovered alive. Moulter says that all within the mine on Thursday commented on the heaviness of the atmosphere and that a number of the men left before he did. Ho soon found that danger was imminent and started to run from the drift. A heavy report, which shook the mountain, was heard and an instant later a huge cloud of smoke and flame was seen coming.

LONDON, November 18.���Lead, 2s 6<L ��11 The meeting of the city council last evening demonstrated one thing very; clearly, that is, that the members of tha council who are favoring tho deal with' the West Kootenay Power & Light Company, ir. spite of all their professions to the contrary, are opposed to the city, installing and owning its own plant. This very" interesting feature waa brought out by the vote upon tho bylaw introduced by alderman Irving, which authorized the submission to tha ratepayers for their approval or rejection of a by-law for the borrowing of $150,000 for the Installation of a ^oweri plant on Kootenay river! The -motion, for the first reading of the"by-law waa moved by alderman Irving and seconded1 by alderman Madden, and was adopted' without division. The by-law which had been drafted by the" city solicitor waa then read by the city clerk, after which the opposition in the city council to the principle of_ municipal ownership, manifested, itself. , - z Alderman Selous, who is opposed tq the expenditure necessary, to the in- - stallation.of any,city plant/ took the" lead in the opposition" to the byrlaw. He| - asked the mayor what he. had to report^ with respect to the power site desired-^ by the city. ���. .'.- . ;-- t Mayor Fletcher replied ' that,' he received several letters from the provincial government with respect to the site and the government now- seemed to be very anxious to go into the question. From the letters he had received it was e\ ident that the government had agreed to hear the adverse claims of the West Kootenay. Power & Light Company to the city's application for tho site, and It was but a matter of time until the rival claims could'be-heard."-.-Ifon..Mr. Well****t_ was at present absent- from "Victoria, but he had been assured that upon the return of the minister of land3 and works the government would be prepared to take the matter up and give its decision, one way or the other. The reply of the mayor was evidently expected by alderman Selous, and he at once dropped in the observation that it would be impossible for the council to, go into the question of cost until it had" * made sure of the site the city was after. Alderman Madden said he did not think there was any trouble to be anticipated over the question of the site, but alderman Selous at once retorted that he did not feel like expressing himself upou the question of the by-law until the site had been secured and the council was in a position to estimate th9 cost of the proposed work. The site that the city was after was a very desirable one, and until it was secured ho was���opposed���to-advancing-t he���by-law;��� introduced any further. Alderman Irving replied that the council had an estimate of cost before It, which should be sufficient for present purposes; but to this alderman Selous rejoined that the "estimate was based upon a site at present in dispute, and until the site was secured ho considered any further action was premature. Mayor Fletcher was ready with1 another obstacle in the way of the city installing its own plant. He thought the size of the plant should be decided upon. His view of the matter was that a plant capable of extension to 3000) horse-power should be installed, and nothing should be done, in his opinion, until this detail was decided upon. This was just the sort of excuse that alderman Hamilton was looking for upon which to pin his reasons for voting against tho installation of ai city plant. He thought the council had not sufficient information to go upon. Alderman Irving, in reply to this objection, said that it could be met before tbe by-law was submitted to the ratepayers, and so far as the question of the site was concerned he was of the opinion that the city stood a better chancel of securing it if some evidence was given by the council of its intention to turn, the site to account. He was in favor of pushing the matter along, and ho thought this end would bo attained by, the adoption of the by-law, which waa seconded by alderman Madden. Alderman Selous moved an amendment to this to the effect that.the bylaw be read a second time after the city had secured the site. He added, thatj until the city had secured the site hei was opposed to spending any money. Alderman Paterson seconded tha amendment. Mayor Fletcher said he agreed ...with1 alderman Selous. He did not think it would be business-like for the council to push the matter. He added that aa the amendment had been moved and seconded it was not necessary to put tbe amendment, because a by-law could not be advanced a second stage at one meeting of the council unless it wa3 favored by at least two-thirds of thel members. He then informed alderman Irving that he could move the second reading of the by-law at the next meeting of the council. Alderman Irving dissented from the ruling of the mayor. He said he did not [Continued on Fourth Page.] . ... -al '-\%1 -jsa y til NK.f l\ 04 -3 t.

On Saturday next, subscribers whose Tribunes are delivered by carrier will be expected to pay the carrier TWENTY. CENTS, the subscription price for the current week. Mayor Fletcher and aldermen Hamilton, Gillett, Paterson, and Selous have placed themselves on record as being opposed to the city putting in a power plant on Kootenay river. They did this last night when they voted against the second reading of a by-law authorizing the city to borrow $150,000 to be used for installing an up-to-date power plant. All of their former professions of honesty of- purpose must now be looked upon as mere subterfuges. These five men evidently have never been in favor of civic ownership of the electris lighting system, and are now willing that the city's investment of $70,000 shall become a worthless asset.,�� No explanation they can make will lead the people to believe that they are opposed to the West Kootenay Power & Light Company's efforts to force Nelson into a position of depeuder.ee on that company for power./ This is a humiliating admission for The Tribune to make, seeing that it supported these-men for the offices they now hold; supported two of them in particular because of specific pledges made on tho very issue that they are now doing their utmost to kill. Who wrote mayor Fletcher's Address to the Electors of Nelson, January last, an address to which he willingly affixed his signature in the presence of witnesses? Alderman Gillett in his address, to which he affixed his signature without hesitation, pledges himself to work for "the installation of an electric power " plant on Kootenay river> so that Nel- "ron will be ia a position to offer La-J MORLEY & LAING Successors to Thomson Stationery Co., Ltd. NELSON. B. C. " ducements to industrial enterprises." The man who wrote mayor Fletcher's address, knew whom he was dealing with, and wished to place him (Fletcher) on record so that there, could be no doubts as to where he (Fletcherstood on the question of allowing the West Kootenay. Power & Light Company, an entrance into the city. Without such a pledge, Frank Fletcher could no more have been elected mayor of Nelson by acclamation than he could now be elected poundkeeper by a popular vote. **Had. alderman Gillett declared .himself in January last as he'did last night, and as he has been doing for a month past, trie confidence reposed in'him by the people of tho East Ward would not have been so rep'osed./It is true that alderman Paterson and alderman Selcus did not make specific pledges" on the question at issue; but had it been known that they would have acted as-they have, neither of the two would have been made an alderman by acclamation. But-there is one consolation,-neither Frank-Fletcher, nor Harold Selous nor John Paterson nor W. G. Gillett is likely ever again to hold an office of honor' or trust in which- the electors' of Nelson have a voice. Why -were mayor Fletcher and aldermen Hamilton and Gillett and Paterson ana Selous so willing to do the'bidding of L. A Campbell, manager of the West Koot<i.ay Power & Light Company of -Rossland, and so' unwilling to grant a respectful request made by John A. Kirkpatrick, Charles J.,Wilson, J. Fred Hume, John J. Malone/ W. F: Teetzel, James, A. Gilker,.W. R: Seattle, E. C. -Tja^es, John A. Turner, Jacob Dover, -John Linebaugh, Peter Lamont, James sLawrence, W. J. Murphy, E. B. Irving, -A. J. Marks, August Thomas, Gust Eric- rson, and over twenty olherproperty-own- ers of Nelson? Of course, no one, for- 7an instant, would believe that the manager of the West Kootenay Power & Light Company would use money to secure the passage of legislation that gives him an entering wedge into a .-.ity that he has tried for three years to enter; and no one would suspect" that Charles Augustus Waterman is working solely for glory in doing the bidding of those who favor the ratification of a by-law that gives the West Kootenay. Power & ^Light���Company-so-soft���a-^snap-as���it would: have if the .by-law to be voted on today is carried. Does it'not seem strange that, mayor Fletcher and aldermen Hamilton and Gillett and Paterson and Selous are unwilling to let the property-owners of Nelson decide.for themselves whether or not they want to build a power station on. Kootenay river? What right have these fiyemen to deny the; property-owners of Nelson such a privilege? Probably the property-owners of Nelson are "hoboes," not to be trusted with the handling of their own affairs. Probably the "better class," of which mayor Fletcher and alderman Selous are fair representatives, so utterly oppose civic ownership, of public utilities that alderman Hamilton and alderman Paterson and alderman Gillett are afraid that Nelson will become depopulated if the "better class'' are not allowed to have their own way. tf> SPECIAL SALE FOR THIS WEEK ONLY OF LADIES' AND CHILDREN'S FURS. iii We will offer our complete stock of Furs at prices never before equalled in this city, ."

M. the demerits of the editor of The Tribune. Miss Stone and the Brigands. SOFIA~ November 18.���Another letter has been received from Miss Stone. Her health has been somewhat affecte'J by her continual "confinement and'hard fare, but she expresses herself as still confident-of ultimate release. A letter to Mr. Dickinson, diplomatic agent of "the United States at Sofia, replying to his proposals, concerning a ransom, says the brigands will hold out for a figure very- much above the sum at Mr. Dickinsonfs command.' The brigands interpret Mr. Dickinson's not having fixed on the sum he is willing to pay and on a time limit as being indications that he can, get more money. They also demand immunity from prosecution. But it is impossible for the diplomatic agent of the ^United "States here to have power, to bind the - government of Bulgaria and Turkey. .This point, however, is not'likely ;to be a "serious obstacle in the way, of the negotiations.'' . WASHINGTON, " November 18.���Another, cablegram rcctived from United States consul-general Dickinson at Scfia' today, indicates tbat, while Miss Stone has not yet been ransomed, there is reason for feeling reassured for her future. The dispatch fuither furnished evidence that Mr. Dickinson remains in direct communication with.the brigands or their agents. Germany's Cordial Feeling. WASHINGTON, November 18.���Herr von Heleben, the German ambassador in the United States has just returned tb .Washington from his summer vacation in Europe and ��-has resumed the duties of his post here. ��� His excellency ;wuhen seen here today seemed to be in "excellent~spirits~and-much���oenefited-by- his leave ofabsence and by the complete rest from his responsible work. " When asked about the existing . relations . be-r tween Germany and the .United States, his excellency said: "They, have never ;been; better or more cordial.. The great ���sorrow which came to your country (through the tragedy, in Buffalo has. greatly aroused tho sympathy ���. ot the German people who aro i- cTc-sely united to the people of tlie United States by the many ties, of blood- ana friendship.'' Before' closing the interview he said: ."You are; aware that at regular intervals reports appear in the newspapers to the' effect that Germany is trying to acquire coaling stations or a foothold of some^klnd in South America or in the West Indian waters. Tlie reports are started again and again by our enemies, ���who-dont't like to see us on too friendly terms with the United States. I can tell you now thatJI am officially authorized to state that Germany has no such purpose. I want to deny now, once for all, these ever recurriig reports in an emphatic and unqualified way. I have told this to the president, who was specially gratified by it. J^^U^^ <f K&tfons din0+ifi ?<rurW? # TELEPHONE 39. P. O. BOX 627. Nelson Saw & Planing Mills XiiayEITEJID.

WASHINGTON, November 18. ��� Postmaster general William Mullock of Canada conferred with postmaster gen- ��CE T Albert Edward McPhillips, M.P.P., of Victoria, is said to be a most consistent legislator.

A vote FOR the By-Law today means an INCREASE in real estate taxes next year, for the city will be compelled to pay thousands of dollars for power it will not use, just as the tramway company is doing, and such payments mean that there will be less money available for street improvements unless money is raised by increasing taxes or by the sale of debentures. The Vancouver Province has awakened to tb.2 feet that redistribution is a live issue; but instead of discussing it as an issue on its n.trits, it uses a column ol editorial slusb in discussing J Tljink It Mere Bagatelle. WASHINGTON, November 18. ��� Baron yon Hehgel Mullock, the ambassador from Austria-Hungary to the United States, who has just returned from a vacation of several months spent in Vienna, called on president Roosevelt today. The ambassador.conveyed to the president emperor Francis Joseph's best wishes for the success of his administration and the prosperity of his country. Baron von Hengel Mullock has returned to the United States charged with no particular or important diplo-; matic mission. He says that Austria- Hungary is taking no active interest in the' Stone abduction case. During the past thirty years, he says, half a dozen such abductions have occurred iii the same region, but they have not attracted widespread attention, yet the brigands never before made such exorbitant demands. "The brigands," said" he, "evidently believe that a ransom of $100,- 000 more or loss is a mere bagatelle to the country of Goulds and Vanderbilts." The Manchurian Treaty.

THE FOUNDER OF MOLSDN Again Recoups His Fortune. _ MOLSON, Washington, November 14. ���[Special correspondence of The Tribune.]���George B. Meehem, the erstwhile mino operator and townsite promoter of the Reservation, has again struck it rich. Word comes from New York that he has recuperated his fallen fortunes to the extent of $250,000 made in oil speculations. Meehem drifted into the north half of the Colville Indian reservation a little over a year before it was thrown open for homestead settlement, on October 10th, 1&00. lie came from Montreal, ���where he was engaged in the stock brokerage business. Debonnairc in appearance, free and easy with acquaintances and withal having money to spend, he soon attiacted attention. For a time he put in much of his time living at the hest hotels between Nelson and Greenwood, British Columbia. He was on the lookout for a mining proposition to handle back east. Finally he mado Chesaw his headquarters and spent several months in the Myers Creek valley. Previous to his entry into the upbuilding of the Reservation, Meehem had won and spent three fair sized fortunes. In 1S95 he was operating on the Colorado Springs stock exchango. For several months immediately previous to the crash���ai the time president Cleveland issued his famous Venezuela message��� Mechem's earnings were rated at over $100,000 a month. He was one of the boldest operators and heaviest plungers on the. exchange. To carry on his business he established branch offices al Denver,' Cripple Creek, Chicago, and Montreal. A private wire connected his head office at the Springs with his Chicago branch. For this item alone he paid $22,000 a year. Domorized by the bursting of the boom, he .closed down his offices and left Colorado for Montreal. His winning personality soon attracted to him a large circle'of wealthy Montrealers. He formed a partnership with D. li. Cameron and continued in the brokerage business. Before long he was again on his feet and looking around for new fields to conquer. In October 1899 he came west and visited Myers GreeTe, and" conceived the idea of establishing a town of his own. He secured an option on the Poland China mine, at the head of Mary Ann ��� creek. This property was noted as having some of the richest gold bearing quartz discovered on the Reservation. With the option in his pocket he returned to Montreal and promoted the Col- vlllo Reservation Syndicate, Limited. On his second trip to the Reservation he caused to be staked out in a solid block 65 claims, a mile anda half south of the international boundary line, at the head of Baker creek. On this land ho proposed to establish his townsite��� Molson. The scheme required funds to carry it out successfully. The Montreal end did not view the idea in the same ~~light~as"this-huPtlinc-promoter-and--"r&-- fused to dig up. The enterprise had about fallen through and Meehem was being hard pressed by sundry creditors,* when a telegram reached him saying he was wanted in Denver. To Denver he went. There he learned that some mining property thought, valueless a few vears before when he left Colorado was "'badly wanted by Stratton. For his share he received $125,000 cash. After settling old scores, he returned to Molson with $40,000 cash. It cost him $9500 to make the trip from Denrw to s-iolson. He hired a special Pullman car to Spokane, and was accompanied by a lawyer, a doctor, a hotclman and another friend. These men formed the nucleus of the embryonnic city of Molson. Thc $40,000 lasted him from May to September. In less than five months Molson was having a boom���but he never offered to sell a lot. He built the most costly hotel on the Reservation. Ho next put np and equipped a drug store, a law office and a private office. Other enterprises included three saloon buildings, a second hotol, two restaurants, and a printing offlee. He had plans prepared and the ditch dug for a waterworks system. For the pleasure of the rapidly growing community he built a half mile raco track which was opened on September 3rd, and for four days Molson was a typical wild and woolly western camp. Two days later Meehem declared himself as being "all up." With a few hundred dollars in his pocket he vanished. He realized that the Reservation, when thrown open, would not have an Okala- homa boom and decided fco try new ���fields : For a! time his whereabouts baffled all attempts of his friends and creditors to locate him. The creditors placed th-3 hotel in the hands of a receiver. Without Mechem's cash to carry on business thc saloons and stores soon closed down. Within a few weeks Molson was numbered with the "has beens." For a year Mechem's lawyers have'fought off every attempt of his creditors to sell the place. They tried to make him a bankrupt. This failed, for Mechem's total indebtedness did not exceed $3000 and the county assessor assessed his holdings at $8000. Now Meehem, mining operator and townsite boomer, is once again in the swim. He offers to settle up his liabilities here in full. When he disappeared he went straight to Beaumont, Texas. He got in on the ground -floor and secured much land ad- B. E.

Next he opened out with swell offices on Wall street, New York, associating with hi3 old time partner D. B. Cameron of Montreal. The papers state he has been sensationally successful in oil manipulations and that his profits are placed at a minimum of $250,000. To him is due the credit for originating tho plan whereby Beaumont oils are to be sent to New York to take the place of the black diamond in manufacturing establishments. This project embraces the construction of a pipe line from the Meehem properties on Spindle Top, Beaumont, to Port Arthur, on the coast, and is already well advanced. Thc first oil loaded barge is lo reach New York early next year. Such in brief is the history of the founder of this place. CEQLQGY~AND TOPOCRAPHY Of Boundary District. GREENWOOD, November 16.���[Sp3C- ial correspondence of The Tribune.]��� Recently The Tribune's correspondent at Greenwood. had an interesting talk with Mr. R. W. Brock, of the Canadian geological survey, who had just completed his fifth season's field work in British- Columbia, and who was upon the eve of returning to Ottawa to thero enter upon the task ,of working up the material, comprising much and varied information relative to the topography, seology, mineralogy, etc., of the Boui- dary district collected by him during last summer and fall. The geological map of,West Kootenay, in the preparation of which Messrs. Brock, W. W. Leechr James McBvjy, and others have been engaged for several years, is now in the engraver's hands and should soon be ready for the public. The Shuswap sheet, embracing the country immediately north of West Kootenay (in connection with vhich the late Dr. G. M. Dawson, C. M. G., L. L. D., F. R. S., for some time previous to his lamented death deputy head aud" director of the Canadian geological survey, did the greater part of the work), has already been published, as, too, has the Kamloops sheet, covering the country -westward from that included in tlie Shuswap. sheet. The sheets arc similar in size, ond general characteristics, the geological survey, in its efforts to systematize its work and keep it as uniform as possible having adopted a scale of four miles to the irch, each sheet prepared on this system taking in a country 72 miles square. The maps are geographically colored and contoured and give geographical and topographical data and other explanatory matter. It is usual to issue with the general geological map a topographical map with special indications of the occurrence of economic mineral and glacial strata. The maps arc accompanied by a comprehenjive -ej*planatory"-report��� enibracing-the���fol-*^ lowing infoimation: physical geography, general geology, descriptive geology, glaciation and surface deposits, minerals of economic value, perograph- ical character of the rocks withinotas of microscopic examinations, and humorous miscellaneous observations. The West Kootenay map takes in the country from the west shore of Kootenay lake, on the east, to the north fork of Kettle river, which is practically the western boundary of this sheet, Northward it goes nearly to the head of Kootenay, 'Slocan and. Whatshan lakes, and the headwaters of the main Kettle river. Its southern limit is, of course, the ��� international boundary line. Those interested in Mr. Brock's observations on the portions of West Kootenay examined last year may find them in the summary report of the geological survey department for the yeai 1900, issued last January, and which can he obtained from the department at 10 cents a copy. Additional information will doubtless be published with the map shortly to be isseud. This year Mr. Brock's work was largely restricted to the country lying between the north fork of Kettle river and Boundary creek. His preliminary report on this section, which will be included in the summary report to be published early next year, will be welcomed by many who are anxious to learn the conclusions to date of so. competent an authority. The district oeing important from a mining standpoint, Mr. Brock wjjl probably go into considerable dejafl. The Boundary country, geologically, in many respects resembles the Kootenay district. Like lhat section it presents a variety of interesting features, there being con*3id- orablo diversity in the rocks. The mountains in the Boui dary are less rugged than those in the Kootenay��� not nearly so high and more rounded, consequently the country is more easily traversed. The geological exposures, however, are not so good, the rocks often being, at critical pon/ls. covered with wash. Owing largely to the free growth of timber and brush and there beiug much disturbed matter overlying the settled formations, the district as a whole is a different and expensive one to thoroughly prospect. Mr. Brock's observations may be expected to note this characteristic], and to include a OE1 C-AZXX^JD-A. Capital (paid up) Rest $2,600,000 $1,860,000 HKAD OFFICE. TORONTO, ONTARIO.

It is to be hoped that the geological survey department will; as soon as,practicable, issue a map of the Boundary district similar . to that it published some time ago of the Rossland district. That map was on a scale of one mile to the inch, wac colored to indicate the disti ibution of the rocks, had contour lines and showsd the most prominent mountain peaks, streams, railways, reads, trails, towns, wic. The department is alore in possession of the requisite data for such a map, and ia view-of the increasing importance of the Boui dary as an ore-producing dis-: ��� trict it is especially desirable that information collected by thoroughly competent and withal impartial officials; shall be made available at the earliest possible time. Perhapo the press of the iLterior and the Dcmirion parliarcen-" tary representative- for Yale-Kootenay will combine in an effort to secure for lhe district the benefit of ihe early publication of such a map with accompanying descriptive and explanatory niatt3r.
