N. FORD 'POINTERS HOW THE DEPARTMENT SHOULD BE RUN. -i -j ^NEW YORK, November 17.���I. N. ord, in a special dispatch lo the-New ork Tribune today, says: I asked sir tobcrt Anderson yesterday how ho culd reform the New York police sys- lin. He replied that as a former as- Istant commissioner of the metropolian police and the head of-the criminal Intelligence department he could not fscuss with propriety the alleged scan- ils of New York, but he might be jus- Ined ' by virtue of official experienco in Iplaining how any great center of pop- lation could be provided with au hon- pt and efficient police force. It would necessary to begin at tbe top and ('cure capable and iueorruptable offl- |als for directing lhe discipline of the atire body and then go all the way own, weeding out incapable and dis- onest superintendents, captains, .aiid Inordinate officials. The creation of la" ideal police force in uuy great city lould be a gradual process and would ���squire unceasing'vigilancc and pains- liking care. During his own experienco It -Scotland Yard, he had witnessed a Ireat improvement in the intelligence, lapacity' and morale of "the - metropolitan police. Like-every .other branc__ Bf. service, the metropolitan force was fcitirely out ofi politics. Tlie force was J'-scruited and maintained without ref- luenco to political considerations. No "political manager had any control over Jit. Recruits joined it after a rigorous ���examination and remained in it subject Ito good conduct, received promotion [when it was earned and a pension wheu ithe limit of active service was reached. [The standard of efficiency, of the Lon- Jldon force had been considerably raised ���/"during tbe last., quarter pf 'a* century. VThe recruits were of a tbetter grado^in ^'intelligence ,^and,'- education and there 'were" fewer infractions of ";the regulations for -sobriety than '^formerly. It was an honest force, free'from scandal. No -member of the force was allowed >' to borrow money from a publican, much my less to take it as a bribe or gift. Even the rewards for special service, which 'might be accepted properly from any class except publicans or criminils, were reported to'the subordinate officers, and higher officials decided whether these could be retained. Any officer or man derh ing money from-a gambling saloon or public house under any pretence would bo M��xV*)ie to immediate dismissal from the force. Sucn incidents did not occur in London. The criminal iutflligence department had been reorganized -twenty-six ye-us ago _on account of some irregularities, bu*c_ from that time the honest repute ofthe entire service had never been called into question. He knew nothing about the recent disclosures in New York and was only prepared to discuss in general terms a hypothetical case, but was con- ' vinced that the organization of an honest and capable foice in any great city "was a srlow and laborious process of weeding out unfit men and gradually raising the morale ond discipline. BRITISH POLITICS / It rumor mongers can be trusted, two [opposite processes aro now in progress in British politics. One is tho thawing out and 'warming up of lord Rosebery lu his lonely furrow. Thc other is the freezing out,of sir Michael Hicks-Beach from the cabinet. Each process is delib- , erate, for lord Rosebery had deferred i his political, deliverance'for a month, i and the chancellor of the exchequer is answering the letters of corrcspou dents respecting the sugar and coal duties as they are expected to remain at the treasury for an indefinite period. ["���Whether lord Rosebery has been chilled |afresh by the iceberg breath of sir [William Vernon Harcourt's letters to I the Times is uncertain, but it is safe to [forecast that a root and branch reform ��� of tho administration service will bo Ithe supreme issue. The Shrewsbury [speech of sir Michael Hicks-Beach is [credited by men in tho inner circle of [politics Avith having frightened his col- [leagues by tho revelation of financial [proposals, so that everyone except lord [Londonderry gave-him tho cold shoul- Ider. Whether he suggested loading uo [American millionaires with anywhere [from ��25,000,000 to ��40,000,000 in con- Isols, or sweating the income taxpayers [with a largely increased rate, is a mys- [tery. Certainly he would rot have icaused so much commotion by suggesting the doubling of the sugar tax, and [presumably he can make peace with his [colleagues' by assenting reluctantly to Igivo cordial attention to the schedule [of indirect taxation. | Generals Dewet and Botha are driv- jlng nails into the free trads coffin. New (tactics from Mr. Winston Spencsr {Churchill are expected when parliament [reassembles. He is reported to be form- ling a small group of Tories which will Itake an independent line in discussing [military matters, and will stand on the ^principle of economy. Mr. Broderick is [preparing his defemo against the at-' I.tack by the Hooligans, as the group is ���'called, by sending^relnforcements- from llndia and Aldershot to the'seat of war omy being a fresh letter, the treasury watch dogs can only bark In front cf- an empty cupboard. The burdens of war have fallen heavily on the city, where little money has been made on the stock exchange. With a steady shrinkage of values in mining shares, brokers and speculators complain bitterly of stagnant markets and are in no mood for attending meetings to support a .government which conducts military operations with l'ght driving power. The revenue returns will disclose without doubt a shrinkage in the incomes of the moneyed class and the morality of millionaires has been exceptionally light. A portion of ��12,250,000 which the war is cofting weekly comes back, as the Bradford district has increased trade with South Africa on account of an immense army requiring woolen worsted goods. The cotton trade with China and India is increasing and the shipping business is fairly prosperous. The iron and steel industries are sluggish. The great manufacturers are still working on the problem of amalgamation and reporting"progress. The report of the delegation headed by Ebenezer Parks, which visited the United States, will be a voluminous document of one thousand pages and may help to revolutionize the iron and steel trade here. * Tricks of the Rich. [ BERLIN, November 17.���An eminent medical practitioner in Beriln ' whose fees for well to-do people are high, but who gives two hours gratis daily to the poor, has been victimized on a somewhat extensive scale. Under his apartments is a shoemaker's shop in which well-dressed people have been incthe habit of changing their clothes for the rags of the beggar. As beggars -they present themselves and their complaints to the physician who prescribes for them free. The shoemaker's wife did a flourishing business until by accident the physician discovered the fraud and set the police to'work. Brilliant Meteoric Shower. - * > PHOENIX, Arizona, November 17.��� A meteoric t-hower of great brilliancy and considerable length occurred here early yesterday morning. The shower continued half an hour and during that timo, more than 200 meieors were counted. / - ' LOS ANGLES, California,- November 17.���The fall of leonids" was quite marked in this city just before daylight. The display was at - one' "time brilliant." One watcher 'counted -_. 385 meteors between 4 and 5 o'clock, while the total cumber keen in this ��� city is estimated at a-thousand. WiLlr FIGHT THE SCHEME Thinks Consolidation Unlawful. WINONA, Minnesota, November 17.��� Governor Vaasant arrived from St Paul last evening. When asked regarding lhe ir.corporation of the Northern Securities Company in New Jersey he made the following statement: "The g-.eat railway deal in New York, having Cor its object thc uniting of two great companies���the Nort.iern Pacific and the Great Northern ��� is a" matter of gieat public interest; There is justly wmupread oppositioi to it in our slate. I. don't kuow whether it.can be preven ted, but it is my intention to ask attor ney general Douglas upon his return to bring suit in the name of the state to prevent if possible the consolidation of the Great Northern and Northern Pacific railroads. It is clearly in open violation of the plain intent and purpose of the law. If under existing law the consolidation cannot be prevented, I feel that I would be justified in calling an extra session of the legislature to take the necessary steps to success- hilly resist it, if it can be accomplished, by this means. Belitving it to be my plain duty, I shall leave no stone unturned to prevent this consolidation." Kaiser and America's Cup, BERLTN, November 17.���The grand marshal of kaiser's court, count Zu Eulenburg, who is here, was questioned by the World correspondent today about the report that the kaiser is having a yacht, built in Am'erica. "The rumor is wholly untrue," the count answered. "His new yacht will be built in Germany. His majesty never intended to challenge for the America's cup, nor, to my certain knowledge, will the Kiel Club." Murder Will Be Charged. LEAVENWORTH, Kansas, November 17.���J. B. Waldrupe, a guard at the Fort Leavenworth military prison, .who was shot during the mutiny at that institution on November 7th, died today of his wounds. Twenty-six mutineers will now become liable to a charge of murder. Silver Coinage Prohibited MADRID, November 17.���The Spanish senate has passed a bill prohibiting silver coinage. Skirmishes in the Philippines MANILA, November 17.���Company E of the Ninth infantry, caprain E. H. SchoefCel, was attacked by fifty bolo- men and several insurgents armed with rifles at a point six miles from Taran- guan in the island of Samar. The insurgents tried to rush the Americans, but failing to accomplish their purpose, they quickly brok. ond scattered. The men of the Ninth had a corporal and a scout killed and one private wounded. Sixteen of the bolomeu were killed, while th-3 riflemen escaped. first infantry has been scouting for several days* in Batangas province. He had four serarate engagements with the insurgents there. Judging from the fighting on thoso occasions, captain Halle estimates tin force'of each band of rebels at from thirty to fifty. They made an attempt to charge captain Halle's party. Captain Halle's scouts ieport the capture of one insurgent ofllcer and 50,000 pounds of rice. Filipino president Deposy has been sentenced by court-martial to the pei- alty of death for the r.uider of certain of his countrymen who favored the Americans. Out of respect, however, to the condemned man's calling and religious -body to which he belongs, general Chaffee has commuted his sentence to twenty years' imprisonment. Gone'al Chaffee desires It to oe understood that the leniency exercised in this crse cannot be taken as a precedent and that no person in the islands can be permitted to plead his ^ office, however sacred and exalted this may be, ��.s protection agairst crimes committed. Chicago's Missing Ledger*?. CHICAGO, November 17. ��� The finance committee of the city council has discovered the city's ledgers, covering its accounts from 1876 to 1884, are missing. This was discovered in an investigation" of the sinking fund accounts, in which a discrepancy of more than $2,100,000 was recently announced. It is claimed that--previous administrations-have borrowed from this fund for other corporate purposes and nonreturn has been made of the amounts diverted. MAY SUCCUMB TO OLD AGE -Before a Settlement Is Reached. SOFIA, Bulgaria, November 17.���The brigands who abducted Miss Ellen M. Stone, the American missionary, and rradame- Tsilka, her companion, have not yet replied tcthe latest'proposals of Mr. Dickinson, diplomatic agent of the United States in Sofia. This is believed to be due to the fact that the' -band has'mary leaders and'that the latter are unable to agree among themselves. There is a ge-ieral impression h(re,that time is be'ig frittered away while waiting for the brigands to re-1* duce their demands. It is felt that the cnly. means by which matters can be brought to a head is to inform them as to the-sum available''for ransom-'���-nd declare that- this cannot be increased for any corrideration- whatever. Such an'ultimatum might endanger, the life of Miss Stc--ie, tut it is improbable-that the brigands ?vill accept this condition. Besides every day's delay imperils -her life, not so much on the score of the brigands themselves but by reason of the exposuie and strain she is undergoing. - ' ; Great Britain and Mosquito Indian!). LONDON, November 17.���The negotiations between ths _ governments of Great Britain and Nicaragua with regard to the Mosquito coast have been ^ery voluminous, but it is row beiieved .Nicaragua can provide a' satisfactory . guarantee for the protection, of the ���natives aud enable Great Britain to rid herself of a responsibility which brings-with it no. advantage. The ques- tiou of a suitable guarantee has been chiefly responsible for the prolongation of the matter, lord Lansdowne, British foreign secretary, insisting that the Indians must be adequately protested. Beyond this point the foreign, office displays 1-ttlo interest in the matter, believing that Great Britain's rights on the Mosquito coast are quite valueless and no quid pro quo is boing sought from Nicaragua. . Ttie Concentration Camps. NEW YORK, November 17.���According to the London correspondent of the Tribune, as to the result of the publication of an elaborate report issued by tho colonial -office in relation to the concentration camps in South Africa, Unionist papers pronounce the history of the camps as most creditable to England, while the pro-Boer journals maintain that the moral of these disclosures is the unutterable criminality of the policy of concentration. It is admitted in tho ieport that thero is an irdiscriiuinate massing together of people, of insufficient housing and covering, absence of warmth and poor rations. It is stated that the camp prisoners have been divided into two classes and that people whose relatives have been on commando have been put on half rations. But tbis policy has since teen abandoned, it is said. Honoring Li and His Children, PEKIN, November 17���The empress dowager has issued an other edict eulogizing the late Li Hum; Chang and ordering the erection of a memorial arch near his birthplaea The edict also directs that the i.'irk of DiP.rquis, conferred upon the eldest son of the lata Chinese statesman ii his own right., shall descend through 23 generations.

Seattle Passenger Agent Dead. SEATTLE, Washington, November 17.���R. Q. Stevens, Great Western passenger agent for the Great Northern railway, is dead as a result of a severe cold contracted while attending the duke and dushess of Yory festivities at KNOCKS THE CITY ATTEMPTING TO INTIMIDATE RATEPAYERS, WANTS TO BE IN PBEPETUAL BONDAGE TO THE W. E. P. & L. . CO. OF BOSSLAND. �� The tramway company; is using its influence to secure the ratification of the W. K. P. & D. Co. by-law, that, is to be voted on tomorrow. - The reasons it gives are such as could bo givei by every'- enterprise in Nelson that i3 equaly .as .unfortunate as the tramway company. That company made a bad bargain with the W. K. P. & L. Co., and the bargain will be bad for three years longer; but that is no reason why the people of Nelson" should go down. into their pockets and give the W. K. P. & L C several thousand dollars. The tramway,company has been informed time and again that the city would arrange to .take the power it is paying for but not using off its hands, and pay for. it at the rate per -horse power it is compelled to pay. But the invariable answer to this business-like proposition has been:- "We cannot'-'do that; the power company will"not/let. us sell our. surplus power-to'the city." Evidently,- the tramway company has made a bad r bargain- with the-"-West Kootenay, Power.& Light Company,- and it now wants the city to do the same.' - Misery likes" company. ,t~ ���'- Of what "real benefit would the ratification of the by-law- be'to the tramway company? The < agreement under the ���by-law is only for a year; at the end of that time the'tramway company would 'be in the same bad plight that it is now "in,-unless the city .-renewed "the agreement, .which, would require the passage and ratification of another by-lav/. The .only-salvation for the tramway company is in the city getting'a power station of {its>own on Kootenay river; then the city would be in a position to help the .company by giving it .power at the minimum of cost.' Yet, instead'of helping ,the; city in that-direction the tramway, company is doing, everything in its power, through its -resident directors and management, to thwart- the city in that endeavor. Apparently they not only want to be^dependent on the W. K. P. & L. C. for all time, but they want to get the City of Nelson in the same dependent position. To say the least, the management of the tramway'company is acting as if short-sighted, and the plea of poverty should not be allowed to influence a single ratepayer. There are enterprises in Nelsou doing more for the town than' the, tramway company, and who are losing as much money as the tramway company is, yet they have never petitioned the city for a dollar in the way of charity, and never will. Mendicants should have no place _iiTNelson7"and_if"the-tramway-company cannot operate without passing around the hat every day in the year, the,sooner it suspends operations the better it will bo for Nelson. Nelson does not want to be known as the abiding place of non-paying enterprises, more especially enterprises that were started with such a flourish of the "possession of unlimited old-country capital as was the tramway company. Cheap Blectioneering Dodge Tho following circular is being mailed ratepayers. The men whose names are attached to it have had every opportunity tb enlighten the people of Nelson on the question at issue; but have they done so? Instead, they accuse the opponents of the by-law in question of making vile insinuations against them.- If Frank Fletcher, mayor, and John Hamilton and W. G. Gillett and John Paterson and Harold Selous, aldermen, imagine they can bamboozle the ratepayers of Nelson by any such cheap electioneering dodge as the circulation of the circular printed below they are mistaken. POWER BY-LAW NO. 101. Dear Sir: The undersigned beg to remind you that the vote on this bylaw takes place on Tuesday, the 19th instant. This by-law is introduced and favored by the majority of the present council, simply and solely to provide consumers with good and efficient electric light. The conditions of tho electric light service prevailing the last two winters will bo fresh in the memory of all. Do you wish for a similar condition this coming winter? This by-law represents tho best terms the council have been able to obtain, after much effort and investigation. This by-law has been violently opposed, not by means of argument, but by carping criticism and vile insinuation against the undersigned. Any attempts at argument on the part of the opposition arp so evidently appeals to prejudice or such obvious misstatements, as to be quite unworthy of reply. The undersigned beg to again remind you that thc vote takes place on Tuesday the 19th instant, and are respectfully. FRANK FLETCHER, Mayor. JOHN HAMILTON, W. G. GILLETT, JOHN PATERSON, HAROLD SELOUS, Inmate of an Insane Asylum. * LONDON, November 17.���Miss Helen Vanderbilt-Wackerman of New York, who was taken to St. Giles infirmary Wednesday as a wandering lunatic and was privately examined there by a justice of the peace, is spending her days within the walls of a workhouse in one of the grimiest part of London. Sho is an inmate of the.insane ward, where her companions with one exception are decrepit old women, suffering from senile dementia. The exception is a wealthy and well connected English woman, who was brought in the day after Miss Wackerman's arrival, suffering from a somewhat similar complaint, which in Miss Wackerman's case is diagnosed as melancholia. She will remain in the care of the authorities until Noyember 28th, by which time it is hoped some of her relatives will have reached London. The United States consulate is now watching over Miss Wackerman's interests. Bubonic Plague Checked. ODESSA, November 17.���Two deaths wero recently certified in Odessa as due to the bubonic plague.

A BUSY MINING DISTRICT ) , ,150 Men Working in Flat Creek. NORTHPORT Washington "November " 17.���[Special to - The Tribune.]��� Superintendent Frank Davis of 'the Copper Mountain Mining Company,"was in-town this morning on his'way to Rossland, where he will undergo an operation for the removal of a cancer which has been forming on his-lip. The Copper Mountain Company are operating- the Wheeler group on Copper Mountain,(l Flat creek' district. Mr. Davis gives the following information: "Our main ^working shaft is now at a depth-of 210 feet and we intend to continue it-down to the 300 foot level. A crosscut at the 150 foot level showed the ledge'to be 54^feet.in width at that point. The values'are copper "and gold and we have' received assays running up to $60, but that is by no means an average. Where there is such a large body of ore the greater part of it is usually very low grade and it is so with our property. The foot wall is a mica schist and the hanging wall is a dio- rite." When asked as to the general conditions on Flat creek. Mr. Davis said. "Work is in progress on every property in the camp and there must be at least 150 men at work in the Flat creek district. Manager Z. D. Brown has two shifts at work on the Bullion group on Blizzard mountain and a very encouraging showing is reported from the property. The Colville Mining Company is doing considerable work upon their property, near the Flat creek store. Sup"erihtend"ent~Johif_Hdpe_Has_a_]arge_ force at work on the Buckhorn. E. E. Owen is working on a contract at the Churchill. The Globe Goldfields Mining Company is also doing corsiderable development on its Flat creek properties. The Dardanas Mining Company is doing considerable work near the boundary line and the British Lion Mining Company is working a full crew of men on some claims just across the line. The Morning Star, on the American fork of Sheep creek, has 12 men at work and will probably put in a com- presor plant in the near future. Quite a number of properties are also working on Fifteen-mile creek. Altogether the eastern half of the Colville reservation is booming and prospects wero never better for the district than they are today." Ore ar>d Bullion Shipments.

London Stock and Money Market. LONDON, November 17.���In spite of various happenings following in which1 V a rise in stock exchange quotations waa confidently predicted, the condition of affairs at the end of the week has not materially improved. Neither the Northern Pacific nor the Franco-Turkish, - settlements, the cheerful speeches of lord Salisbury and Mr. Broderick, nor the lack of serious news from South Africa served to impart tho promised upward movement on the exchange. Up to the present time the- cable advices have failed to satisfy operators as to exactly what the Northern Pacific settlement means and the published details had rather "a depressing effect. Critics point out that the gold shipments from' the United States indicate that New York resources are decidedly strained, considering the magnitude of various financial projects afoot in Wall street, consequently the members of the London stock exchange are Inclined to hold off rather than stake anything upon a. tentative motion. President Roosevelt enters somewhat into London's calculations. The rumors of stringent anti-trust measures which would break up many of the existing combinations result In the presi-1 dent's message being awaited here with keenest anxiety. In the meanwhile money is by no means plentiful. Discount rates are steady. The actual transactions on the stock exchange were in- x significant.

James M. Keilie ot Revelstoke and Prairie Mountain, one of the most broad- minded and self-sacrificing of men, a man who poses as being for Kootenay .first, last, and all the time, has this to say of a section of Kootenay that helped place him in an honorable position in 1S90, and whose people, iu the years that have followed, have time and again defended him when he was assailed by his political enemies: "Nelson riding '* mining camp is a graveyard of baffled ." aspirations,- baulked ambition, ruined " prospects, blighted hopes, and wasted " treasure, grid-ironed with a plethora " of railway lines, wagon roads, and " trails, that afford cheap and competi- '" tive transportation, enjoying the ad- ," vantage cf a smelting reduction works " within its boundaries, with the invest- " ment of millions in capital in its num- " erous ledges, combined with years of " hardship and toil by thousands of " miners and prospectors, how many " self-sustaining, productive, and divl- ���' dend paying mines has it got to its " credit? and per contrast, how many " abandoned shafts, deserted drifts; " gopher cross-cuts, and yawning pot- " holes adorn its mountain slopes ? Like " the stars of the heavens they are " beyond computation. What a great "record has Nelson riding made as a " fleld for lucrative investment in min- " ing properties, that its representative " should feel warranted in casting slura "on North Kootenay?" Hew low-can the mighty fall! Tho mighty and hon- . The people of Nelson." riding , have never truckled to" those in power; their representatives have not traded on their official positions; for every dollar that has -been1 spent within the riding' for" public- works, the money for such L" expenditures * was contributed by the people* who live in the riding. There has-been failures and mistakes and losses ln"inlning ventures, as there has been-in-every district in the province; yet^the mines in tl}e district have kept pegging away, and every year shows an increasodf'output over the previous year.,, "The�� district "has mills and smclterst/b'ut none "of them' hvere built" as' real estate"spe'6ulalions or to boom townsited. "l Nelson" district has mines that pay'dividends, 'and, it is not unlikely that the'number will decrease. Every mine" in 'Nelscn" riding that pays V dividend'helps other mining districts ;bf the province.' The' riding has railways, ali'o'f which are operated, it is to' .be lhoped;*~at a 'profits' None' of thasc railways are'local'; all are" portions'of systems that-benefl't-other ridings besides Nelson. It has" numerous road3j and trails; the cost of .which was largely borne by prospectors and by men who [developed or . are working developed" mines.- No riding in the province' caa show as^good. a record in this respect. Nelson riding has towns and' villages, whose people make an effort to care for .themselves, arid it has the one ,city in' the province that is not continually begging the. provincial government for' appropriations for school houses arid"bther purposes. The people of th'e riding try to keep in.the lead, but that is a common 'fault;' if they have ^succeeded in that respect better than their neighors, surely they are entitled to words' of praise, tot villiflcation.for their enterprise and self-reliance. The people of Nelson-ridiiig-are-not-asking^for-ani'- advantages over the people of any, other section of Kootenay.or of the province; and they will see to it, through' their representative in the local legislature, that no other section gets any advantages over them. to to to to to to! *! to 36 Bakep Street, Nelson. . ���ifl^_: '* ___. ���, ��� -' - --*_���*. - ^c. ,.- "- -**���*��'*���; ^^W'-iSfi't*'���*' <2i^'���*'j��-_'<S?-<H^V-_B__ ��� flf ���**��� **'0*��� ^'^��� ^��� vi\ ��� ^��^*�� ^���JS*.- ^���5ft* '"���*��Ss-^J*���S^'^*J2&*^^*^2^*^&*J2S>��rf�� t w * p^fc* **^^fe^ ^tBt** 4)^0^ ^^m^^^^00^B^F*^&&?

The above are * fair samples' of public men who are held up as consistent and upright members of the legislature by newspapers like the' .Vancouver World. , The Mackenzie & Mann newspaper- organ in Vancouver; the Wcrld���a news- raper that supported lhe" old Davie-" Turner regime arid afterwards supported Joseph Martin's administration���is boiling mad -because premier Dunsmuir is believed to have the support of a major-/ ity of'the members of the legislature. It rages because certain members refuse to go into hysterics over a suppositious political crisis, and refuse to prance up and down the country declaiming in favor of'the V. V. & E. subsidy. The piovince has had too much schoolgirl politics and too many Huckleberry Finn oath- bound pledges made' by men elected to conduct the affairs of the province for the best interests' of the greatest number of people. Instead of working for the greatest good to the greatest number, a good-sized faction of the legislative assembly, led by Hei-' mcken and McPhillips cf Victoria- and Curtis of Rossland, is working to secure a large-sized subsidy for cne special railway, urging as a reason for doing so, that the building of that particular railway will give competitive railway- facilities to a section of country now wholly without railway facilities. It is' not a fight to give any particular company the right to build a railway through that particular section, for three companies have that right; but merely a fight to grant a subsidy of millions to one. particular company. This object is sought to be gained by men, like Helmcken and McPhillips of Victoria, who a year ago opposed granting charters to any railway that entered territory clairii- od by the C. P. R. A year ago,' Smith Curtis would have no railways built unless built in such a way that the government- would have absolute control ovei* them, now he, like Helmcken* and Mc A' yeax^ago^ a foni was-introduced iri the legislature'to incorporate the Lake Benn&t'^'Railfyay Company;'a' company that intended1^to build, a railway from' Dyeavto a point' on- the 'Yukon river. The "road'if'built would-have givon the peopleiof'Dawson'and^the Yukon country, competitive transportation' facilities.' The - company ; was - riot - a skirig forja subsidy" In either land or money, "lts'buildiri'g^would not /have" cost 'the' province a dollar. ��� When built" it would have given "the business men of, Victoria and Vancouver' a' competitive system-of [transportatiori^into a section'of country" iwhose tfade'is1 theirs naturally.* But how-did the men vc>te who are now posturing as-being in^favor of competitive- railways? Messrs. Helnicken", Mc-" Phillips, Hall, Hayward,^ Garden,- and' Murphy-voted against the second read- 'ing of the bill, and the second reading was defeated by a vote of 25 to 8. Were" >the .six men nairie'd^abpve^h'oriest in 1890 iri placing themselves", on record as being, opposed <to ��� coiripetitive railways when "the competition 'would' not'- cost ��� the province a dollar? If they were, .how" "can 'they >now be classed as" honest and consistent in clamoring'for competitive railways, when'.the'railway a are to be built, by the aid* of^ large subsidies in money from the provincial treasury?

The Phoenix'Pioneer-says: /'There "is' one thing about*"Smith Curtia," the '" member for thisTidi'ng. No one" doubts " for a minute where ho stands-in prov- " incial politics." This iS' more than can j" be ' said of several' members of the " legislature." Where does.1 he stand? JA year ago he was an.advocate.of *gov- |ernment ownership - of railways; today jhe is a V.

A-year {ago,' acording to, his" own pretentious professions, he was the' only simon-pure ���friend of workingmen in the province; |a month ago he worked to defeat a man jwho, in and cut of the legislature, was ,a consistent friend of the wage-earning class. A year ago he sought to have inserted in every railway charter a clause ,by which the province should have the right to purchase the railway so built at the market value of its "corporeal ^property;" a few months afterwards jhe voted against a, WU ,that- gave the province' a first lien on the 'earnings of railways built by the aid of money [from the provincial treasury.' A year ago he was a Labor man; but a month afterwards he was either afraid or ashamed' to support Chris Foley, the Labor party's candidate for a seat in the Dominion house of commons. Last spring he joined hands' with the only Labor party man in the "legislatui-e��� Hawthornthwaite���and, announced the birth of the Liberal-Labor party; today he is a straight Liberal, a member of a party that refuses'to; ehforico the Alien Labor Act.

These figures go to show that iNelson ridfiTg does not "get an undue share of the appropriations for roads, .trails and bridges,' notwithstanding the !vapid assertions of James M. Keilie of Revelstoke and Prairie Mountain. Admitted His Identity. ST.

NEW YORK, November 17.���The [Tribune today publishes the following: \a cable message to the Tribune from |Erzeroum, Turksy, last night announces the partial destruction by earth- [qualco of that old city, with a loss of several lives. Tho. dispatch, which is signed by Mr. Stapleton, and American [missionary, is as follows: "Ezoroum, Turkey, was visited by an earthquake. One thousand houses were Idcstroyed and fifteen "hundred damaged, lit 'is known that several were killed. Fifteen thousand people, who have leen driven to huts for shelter, are in iced of immediate relief. The winter is coming oii severe. Contributions can be remitted to thc American Bible House, 3onstantinoplc. One hundred and fifty Hhoiu.and dollars are needed for immediate relief." Erzeroum is the chief city of Armenia |in Asiatic Turkey, the capital of a district of the'same name, and is situatsd 3n a large elevated plateau on the "west branch of the Euphrates river, 155 liles west"of Mount Ararat. It is part- ny enclosed by a wall -thirty feet high ind has an extensive citadel. The population is estimated at from 60,000 ���to-100,000. Erzeroum was founded about 1415 ritear the cite of thc ancient Arize, ���under the name of Theodcsicpolis and was the bulwark of Armenia under the [Bysantines. The Turks regarded it as lan''important .military post. The win- |*qr and'spriug climate is severe. ' Ireland's Donnybrook Exhibibtor. DUBLIN, November 17.���The fight betweon the Horace Plunkett and Arthur Lynch factions, as a result of the parliamentary contest in Galway, was renewed last right The" Lynchitcs" stormed the Unionist headquarters and further demolished thc doors and win- kOows. Numbers'of persons were'injured and in several cases heads, were split. Colon'el Lynch has not yet appeared on the scene and is not expected. The Nationalists assert that if the colonel is elected he will be smuggled inside the house of commons to take the oath and then "face the music" if accused of treason for fighting in behalf of the Boers. 'John Dillon is activelv campaigning against Mr. Plunkett. His object, it is alleged, being to cause Mr. Plunkett's retirement from the Irish agriculture and industries department:, which would probably follow his defeat. 'Mr. Dillon's attitude is in a line with his denunciation of John Redmond because the latter so warmly supported Mr. Plunkett's project for regeneration of agriculture ln Ireland on the parliamentary committee whose labors result- \���ed_ln_the-formation-of-a^new��� department. Mayor Broke the Law. OTTAWA, November 17.���Mayor Morris yesterday morning nleaded .guilty to a charge of having purchased liquor at the Russell house during prohibited hours and was fined ?5. The conviction disqualifies the mayor from occupying a municipal position for two years. The mayoralty chair thus be- ��� comes vacant. The mayor in pleading guilty admitted lhat the actswas committed through ignorance of the law,- but thought the charge was leveled more against reform by depriving him of his seat, the punishment which foi-' loweu conviction, than for vindication of the laws. The charge was laid by the police department, the head of which, chief Powell, hus been at loggerheads with the mayor ror some months past. Late Stories of President McKinley. Stories about president McKinley are f now being collected from every oossible source^ _The result is a most Interesting and varied* illumination of a well-loved character. Among the newest anec- |* dotes collected are the following: An intimate friend, with whom he was chatting one day on the subject of his | will, remarked upon the smallness of the pi esident's estate, whereupon Mr. McKinley said: "No. I don't leave much, but what I do leave was honestly acquired, -for if never cost anybody a tear nor ray country a penny." A number of senators wero talkiag on [the different forces and powers of the world, and the conversation drifted to | the subject of the heads of states. "I don't envy any one of them that l power which Providence has given to them," said the president,' "but there is one thing of which 1 may be allowed j to boast, which is, I fear no man. I (fear neither the "revolver of the burg- jlar. nor the spleen-, of, an injured citizen"���a curious and patnetic sentiment | in the light of what occurred at Buffalo. Mr. McKinley was a careful reader; [he slowly digested every line and every sentiment printed and expresssd; that no doubt was the effect of his legal graining. He cared little for fiction, but rone day: a friend caught him reading a [licpular novel and expressed surprise. "Well," said Mr. McKinley, "there's jmpre reality about fiction than there is tabout: fact, and vit; takes; me longer to B E. Walker, General Manager London Ofiice, 60 Lombard Street. B. 0.

Loubet, president of the French Republic, Mi*. McKinley's mother shook her head doubtfully when she was congratulated oa her son't. accession to the highest position in>the country. I had rather my William were a Methodist bishop than anything else in the world," she said. The lato president was in his early life intended for the ministry. When a lad of "sixteen his brother David, who was the superintendent of a coal mino, came into the room where Williams was studying his Latin grammar and peremptorily ordered klm'to harness his pony by a certain time in order toj-jo to' -a dance. When he,had gone William turned round on his aunt and sai.d: "Aunt, don't you think it is humiliating for a Methodist>to have to hitch up a hoise for a .brother to go to a dance?" A smart'" young lady, on seeing the' president rising 'to leave church after the service was over, broke all precedent and, standing upon one* of tho benches, waved her lace handkerchief and called out, "Cheers for the President!", ,The cheers thundered put in the sacred edifice, and the president acknowledge them ���\yith becoming gravity.- "*��� Mahotastanism in the Philippines. Mahomctanism has taken root in the Philippines. 'Within two months"time the religion of the Crescent'has been securely established aud_ the 5 strength of Christianity shaken, not in Manila alone but over the entire archipelago. Er.im Nabckofl, perhaps the most remarkable missionary in thc world, and seven societies, arc responsible lor the present startling, state -of affairs The fact 'that ?4O,C'0O per month has' already been expended and that the International Moslem Union has authorized the future expenditure of $1,000,000 a year indicates with what zeal the Moslems are ���woiking. ' ' : -���- v~ > , ' The mission at present includes three Americans, threo Filipinos and'two Malays���thc Americans are Emm Nabokoff, its manager; Mohammed Lant, its literary manager, and Ali Price, Its organizer. The Filipinos are Abdul Forces, expounder "of the Koran; Othman Va- donos, editor of La Creclonte, the organ of tho mission, and Ahmed Cousino, assistant organizer. The Malays' are Chowdri Nabi Nakhsh, correspondent of the Ludl.iana, India headquarters of the International Moslem Union, and Moulvi Mohammed Barakat-UUah, correspondent of thr* Singapore branch of the International Moslem Union, which is subject to the Ludhiana headquarters, over which Hamid Snow, a Eurasian Moslem, presides. With this branch support thc Philippine mission will when necessary call to its aid all Mahometan India. NabokofE, lhe leader, is a remarkable man. He is a Russian by birth, and having received an ecclesiastical^ education, was, wbreTT_a^>^unir~mXn7_aJF pointed Bishop of Alaska by the Russian government to atone for its injustice in abandoning his brother, Captain Nabokofi, to the mercy of the Bulgarians. After two years in Sitka, Enim became a convert to Islam, and later a naturalized American. For some years he conducted a Muhometan mission in New York. Since then he has traveled over the world, his rare linguistic prowess enabling him to do effective missionary work in every country. The three principles which the Moslem teachers chiefly insist upon at present are said to be the abolition of slavery, and doing away with usury and a wariness as regards new converts. Poly; gamy is ignored by the missionaries", who are aware that this feature of Mahometauisnr would be repugnant to the Filipinos. , L ��� Career of an Outlaw The career of the most picturesque outlaw in American^ history has lately been foicibly recalled by thc discoveries mado near Cave-in Rock, in Hardin county, of probably the greatest deposit of kaolin in ihe world. Half a century ago Cave-in Rock was tlie home of John Murrel, the shelter for his countless dimes. For more than twenty years the Illinois bandit defied the law from his subterranean stronghold. Many lives and many hundreds of thousands of dollars were the tribute levied on the countiy by Murrel and the gang that ho so adroitly organized and masterfully ruled. For years the government vainly attempted his capture. At length with a price on his head of $50,000, and the- entire country demanding to be rid of him, he was betrayed by one of his own followers and treacherously shot. ���_ Murrel's aeloption of his criminal career was deliberate. Of gentle birth, hi3 boyhood was quietly passed on a Louisiana plantation. Then tho desire came to him to accumalate millions. The ordi- r.ary avenues to mercantile success he passed by as uninteresting and chose instead a safe and comfortable form of piracy to he practiced on the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. At that timo, 1X20, these rivers swarmed with flat boats laden with all manner of produce and manufactured goods, sometimes bearing quantities of gold and silver coin and other government valuables. It was Murrel's first move to organize a band of forty picked men." At Cave-In Rock ilVIPErfiAL BANK ��� ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^sfc^ Capita! (paid up) - $2,600,000 Rest' - - - $1,850,000 HKAD OFFICE.

From a long corridor filled with wonderful sta- lactities, deceptive passages Di'anch off at frequent intervals. Murrel's own room was reached by a ladder. Miles of undergrown passageway would serve now as then to bewilder the unimtoatsd hopelessly. One of these routes, however, led over a distance of thirty miles to Equality, Gallitan county. This provided an infallible escape for Murrel and his confederates. In the long interval between 1820 and 1S50 hundreds of boats were captured by the gang, their own men placed in charge, and the boat's crew and passengers held prisoners in the cave while the pirates took the cargo south, assumed the real owner's name, sold out the contents and returned to the cave with the booty. Not infrequently would the captives bo released later to return as best they could to their homes.-A pretty and winsome lady-was alwaj'3 a prize for the outlaws, and a number that lived and died in the cave with the gang will never be known. v <i . Murrel's perfoiraan'ces had,been noto-.. rious for many years beforo the com-, merceMf the central West demanded relief. He had pillaged so long and successfully ' he' had. amassed on immense fortune. The government had had a standing reward of $50,000 placed on his head Several of hi��, gang had deserted^ him, some had Kecome West Indian pirates, .others had settled in fai off localities unknown to tlie world, and Muriel had-grown' gray in'crime. In 1849 he was shot to death by one of his own men, his-head offered th'e gov; ernment for the reward, but the bargain was never completed, owing in part to tlie murderer's 'fear that his own life would be jeoparadized by the act.., ���j************************ Hf H.

The Epworth League of the Method'st church hold their usual annual meeting tomorrow evening. An interesting address on ��he Pan-Americanl is promised. The Rossland Draying & Warehousing Company,will not.open a branch at Nelson. They have been bought.off by the . Nelson Freighting . & Transfer Company. - '''- ��� Eighty men are employed at the Arlington mine near Slocan City, and the snow-is reported'18 inches deep on vhe ��� divide between Springer and Twelve- mile creeks. ,' '" : Robert Ward,' who has been in Nelson for several days on business connected with the Hall Mining & Smelting Company, of which company he is a director, left for London last evening. - ",'"'���_ - ������ A change.has been made,in the superintendence of the Arlifgtonmine, W. P. Dubois, .who filled the position since the present company came into possession1 being retired. Dubois did not get along very well with the working miners, so' the ��� change is, welcome- to them. " - . W." H. Dowsing, the well known real estate man, had'an exciting experience in Spokane the other evening.' As ne was on his^way home he was held up by a highwayman:' DowsiDg went, down with the first- blow, but on- regaining his feet he knocked his assailant down and out. Charles C. Daley of Kaslo has been gazetted a deputy mining recorder, etc., loj^the Ainsorth mining division, and R7~jr~Stenson of_the same placeyis- made a clerk in the office of the government agent at Kaslo. T. A. Mills is gazetted a deputy in the office of the court registrar at Nelson. Frank McQuaid of San Francisco who 'is largely interested in the Maple Leaf Mining Company, arrived in Nelson last evening. IL is reported, the company will commence work upon a property which it has in behind Pilot Bay. It is not likely that anything will be done on the Maple Leaf property, after which the company takes its name. William Lyon MacKenzie King, the grandson of the famous Ontario rebel, arrived in Nelson yesterday from Rossland. Mr. King is the editor of the official labor gazette and deputy mlnlstBr of labor. He has been in Rossland for the * past few days looking into the labor trouble, but declined to make any statement for publication until he has sent in his report to the minister. Mayor Fletcher and aldermen Hamilton, Gillett, Paterson, and' Selous have placed themselves on record as branding those who oppose the W. K. P. & L. Co. by-law as vile slanderers. It is a pretty come to pass when the people of Nelson have not the right to oppose a scheme that happens to be framed by these five woithies. Is all the intelligence and all the honesty of purpose of the people of Nelson ��� concentrated in their five heads? If so, God help Nelson. Many by-l��ws have been submitted to the people of Nelson for their ratification, but the mayor and aldermen who favored the by-laws never found it necessary to issue and mail circulars to propei ty owners on the eve of the day of election advising them what to do. The rule has been broken, however, and mayor Fletcher and aldermen Hamilton, Gillett, Paterson, and Selou3 have so far forgotten the dignity of their positions as to cause their names to be attached to a cheap electioneer-? ing circular, in which an attempt Is made to dragoon property-owners into ihe support of a very questionable scheme. . The men who have the preliminaries in hand in the work or organizing a labor party, in this city report gratifying success and it is thought that the meeting to complete organization and week. The membership for voting purposes will be by ticket at the first meeting. These tickets are sold for a nominal sum and their purchasers aie rt- corded as members of the organization. Tho object ol those who have lhe inove- ���i out in Land is u. unite the h:.slniFS men and toilers whose sympathies are with the lnboi party but who have rio connection with it through the ordinary agencies such as trades unions. As a result of the decision of the full court on the appeal in the case of Hall vs LaBau, the hearing of the case will require to be gone over again. When the case was-adjourned by judge Forin the case for the plaintiff was completed and a start had been made on the case for the defense, but by a decision of the full court the plaintiffs are saddled with all - costs up to date, and when these are paid they will be just where they were when their action was started. The appeal did not touch on the merits of the case, but dealt simply with a ruling of the trial judge upon the de- fondant's application to amend his de-. fense. ' - ��� �� Percy. Chapman, of the A. Macdonald Company, - has, returned from Vancouver, where he has been for the past three weeks in connection with the letting of the contract for the new warehouse which his.company has decided to put up. The' building is now well under way and it is expected that it will be completed by the middle of Marcn. It is 50 by'100 and three stories with basement, containing all told , 20,000 square feet of floor space. The building "will have a cut stone front, the flrst story being of granite and the rest sandstone. It is likely that the meeting of the retail and wholesale grocers, which has been delayed on account of Mr. Chapman's absence, will be called within the next few days and an effort made at determining where th�� line shall be drawn between the wholesaler and tne retailer. PERSONALS. * Thomas. S. Gilmour of Rossland passed through Nelson yesterday on his way to the;Lavlna group of claims. D. D.

" COLON, November 17.���The Colombian gunboat General Pinzon arrived here todgjr frota Savanilla with 300 troops. In view of the unchanged conditions on the isthmus this evidence of the government's policy to reinforce its forces here gives credit to the assumption that general Carlos Alban, military commander of this district, has finally resolved to lead a strong attacking force against the insurgents within bis jurisdiction and attempt to terminate the present wearisome deadlock between the Colombian rebels and the government. ,.

MONTREAL, Novemoer 17.���The provincial board of health Saturday discussed the fearful mortality rate of "n- fants in Montreal during the' summer months. Discussion showed that the board was of opinion that a proportion .at least of the mortality was due, It not with criminal intent, to at least criminal carelessness'',- on the part of 'parents.-who had taken out insurance on "the lives of 'their children. In many instances the/death of children meant money in the pockets of-parents. The.board passed a resolution calling -upon the federal government to prohibit insurance policies on the lives of children under ten years of age. The board will also ask the government to prohibit the manufacture, importation and sale of nursing bottles with iong tubes, the negligence of parents in keeping these clean being a source of mortality.

Title | The Nelson Tribune |
Publisher | Nelson, B.C. : Tribune Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1901-11-18 |
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. |
