Cablegrams Received at Rossland Yes- tsrday Show That the Famous Cablegram Was a Fake. " ROSSLAND, August 30��� [Special to The Tribune.]���The following cables were received in Rossland this morning: : I "LONDON, August 29.���The extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of the Le Roi Mining & Smelting Company, Limited, _took place this afternoon and was largely attended. Business was virtually suspended on the Stock Exchange, consequent upon the number of brokers and others being- present at tlie meeting. Whitaker Wright was not present. After the chairman had read the petition asking for the meeting to be called together, Vwith other necessary documents, the resignation" of Messrs. Wright and Ruegg was announced, evidently creating satisfaction. After preliminary proceedings . a motion was made and carried unanimously electing Mr. Frecheville one of the new directors. His "election was received- with' applause. Several - shareholders expressed great satisfaction that, ho had consented to accept the position, as his reputation for probity and as a mining engineer was not confined to one continent. The Whitaker Wright element was in an immense minority. The proceedings were very harmonious. Mr. Frecheville' accepted the responsibility of choosing a colleague, either director Hill or "-'sir'Henry Tyler, to visit Rossland. No resolutions whatever were passed indorsing the management either at Rossland or London, the act taken by the meeting being considered sufficient condemnation of these officials.". .."LONDON, August 30.���A meeting of the Le Roi directors took place today. A mutual exchange of opinions resulted in the agreement of the investigating committee to sail for New York en route to Rossland on Wednesday, September .,4th.- Meanwhile a committee of direc- '"tors' has been appointed to prepare a statement of all points in dispute and such evidence as is before; them bearing upon the issue involved. Le Roi shares have stiffened in consequence of the. change of directors." Other cables were received confirming in many points the ones given, and all unite in proving that no action or resolution was taken or passed such as was indicated by the dispatch appearing in *the Rossland Miner today.

It is true lord Salisbury is getting very old, but he' is now relieved of the bulk of the dull routine work, which was formerly trying. I do not thing he is very eager to retire; but what is more to the point, I feel certain the party would not allow it unless age made far greater inroads on his health .than it has at present. I think you will ,see lord Salisbury premier as long as his health lasts and a Unionist government is in power. Personally he has not pursuits to which he desires,to devote more leisure.. Indeed, I believe he would feel quite lost without a certain amount of statesmanship to occupy his energy." GOSSIP OF THE YACHTS FINAL RACE FOR TODAY.

"No player," according to the.--.'rule, "can have his club dues or1 charges paid by another person, as an inducement to become a member' of a club, nor will a player be allowed to receive transportation or board, or any reduction or equivalent thereof,, as a consideration of his playing golf or exhibiting his skill as a; player." . ,-.-' . ^suc!Ta^tio^hs_ra^nd-in~vlBw_of"his_prompt" action at the request of the Le Roi Company in the Colistro.case, a great deal of feeling has been caused among the union men, who have now applied to the minister of justice at Ottawa. Delayed in Transmission The following telegrams regarding the Le Roi Mining Company meeting were delayed in transmission: . TORONTO, August 30.���The Evening Telegram's London cable says: "Energetic precautions were taken by the Lo Roi Mining Company to secure proper representation at its meeting held yesterday. Police were stationed at the entrance to the hall, with instructions to exclude all applicants for admission save bona fide shareholders of the company." LONDON, August 29.���An excited meeting of shareholders of the Le Roi Mining Company was held In London today. During the meeting shouts were heard of "Where is Whitaker Wright?" "On the telephone," somebody shouted derisively in reply. It was then announced that Mr. Wright had telephoned a letter explaining that owing to his resignation there were only two directors left, and'^advising the meeting to form a committee to appoint new members. It then transpired that Mr. Wright, lord Divfferin, and Messrs. Reugg and Mills had all resigned. The two remaining directors, Messrs. Hill and Andrew, both refused to take the chair. Stockholder Aaron was thereupon voted to the chair and announced that he had a majority of 131,438 proxies over those held by the Wright party, thus proving how confidence had been shaken in Mr. Wright's management. Mr. Aaron and others made very uncomplimentary remarks about Mr. Wright, who, it is now said, is a shareholder to the extent of only 40 shares. The meeting applauded Mr. Aaron's comments, and after much commotion appointed a mining engineer, R. J. Frecheville, as a director, and resolved to send him to British Columbia to examine into and report upon the whole business, after which other directors will be appointed. Arrested.

PROVIDENCE, August 30.���Cresceus failed to lower the Avorld's trotting record in'his start against time at'Narra- gansett Park this afternoon. His time was 2:05 flat. The attempt to break the record was not made until 6 o'clock, when the-wind had died down. The track was smoothed over "and was in the best shape for. the champion's footing. He started down once, but did not get a good start. The. second time down George Ketcham nodded for the word, but Cresceus went off his feet in the stretch and they came down once more. A runner followed, and a hundred watches were snapped on the great stallion as he shot under the wire. He got to the quarter in 31 1-2 seconds, where a second runner joined and took up a position a length behind the first. The half was reached in 1:02 1-4, and the three-quarters in 1:34 1-2. Hope of breaking the record was gone, but Cresceus came home strong between..the two runners, making . the last quarter in 30 1-2, and the mile in 2:05 fiat. Wu Ting Fang, the Chinese-minister, saw the great mile from the judges' stand. There was a good card of events and a crowd of people, making the last day a success and bringing a notable meeting to a close.

LONDON, August 30.���The Pall Mall Gazette, under the heading "The Prime Minister's Impending Resignation," says lord Salisbury's retirement probably will occur after the coronation of king Edward, though some persons place it in the autumn or early winter. Supporting the news editorially, the paper says: "The facts square with our own knowledge to the extent that the Unionist party should prepare for a new premiership. LONDON, August 30.���An official who for over thirty years has been most closely associated with lord Salisbury said regarding the report published in Injunction Did Not Stop -I-Jises. NEWPORT, August 30.���The automobile races held by the national association which, as the result of an injunction/could not; be held on Ocean drive, 'were run oft" at Aquidneck Park this afternoon" in short order without loss of life or limbs. William K. Vanderbilt, jr., president of the organization, was the star performer of the day. He drove his own machine in four races, made the best time on the track, and won the championship cup. In all, there were IG races, but the one attracting most interest and arousing the greatest excitement was that between young Mr. Vanderbilt in his new racer of 35 horse-power and Foxhall Keene in a machine of fully GO horse-power. Each had won preliminary heats. Mr. Keene in his contest with David W. Bishop had something of a walkover, making the five miles in S minutes. 2 seconds, and being far ahead at the finish. Mr. Van- ==d erbi I t7~irbweVerr"i n���II is-fa'ce-w itlTWi I~ Ham N. Murray had no easy victory. He gained an advantage at the start and was able to keep it, but his opponent was never more than five seconds behind, and altogether it was the closest race of the day among the larger machines. Mr. Vanderbilt's time for tbe five miles was 7 minutes 43 1-2-seconds. Mr. Vanderbilt finished the five miles a winner in 7:30 3-4, the fastest five miles of the' day. The last event of the day was tbe championship race for the winners of all classes, 10 miles, or 20 times around the track. This Mr. Vanderbilt won handily in 15:23 1-2. A noteworthy competitor was Kenneth Skinner, on a motor tricycle, who was second, covering the 10 miles in 17:25.

Cassiar's Lest Returns VICTORIA. August 30.���J. W. McFarland, census commissioner for Atlin district has reached the city. Mr. McFarland was a passenger on the Islander on her last and fatal trip, and it was in his custody that the census returns for the Atlin district were being brought out to chief commissioner Drury. The loss of the ship anil of the returns necessitates another emimeration-and Mr. McFarland returns shortly to oversee the work of taking it. While, of course, unable to disclose the actual result of the census, Mr. McFarland admits that the return, had it been available, would have shown a population of over "000 for Northern Cassiar, namely, Dcaso Lake, Porcupine, and Atlin. NEWPORT, August 30���The final series of races between the Constitution and Columbia will begin over the Newport, course tomorrow. Of all the contests that have taken place between the American boats this season these are the most important, for on their result depends the selection of the-defend- -er to go against the Shamrock II in the great races for the America's cup - off Sandy Hook. Out of sixteen races already finished, each boat has now eight, and so close were they" in speed that many good yachtsmen say that, whatever the outcome of .the trials, it will be a hard task to choose between them. At the finish of the trial races next Wednesday the regatta committee,- consisting of former commodores Nicholson Kane, Chester Griswold, arid New-: bury Lawton, will turn over to the challenge committee the data regarding all the races between the Constitution and the Columbia. Both racers are at their moorings in tho harbor tonight ready for. the fray; Constitution has been put in the best possible trim by none other than her .designer, Nat Herreshoff, whose*illness has hitherto preventec- him from devoting much time to the boat. The new boat was given a trial spin' down the bay today and the sails had a good stretching. The head stays, which slackened when the boat was hauled out, were also set taut and all the rigging was given a thorough overhauling. The Columbia also was given final touches today and the boats are now ready to show the best speed there is in them. Sir Thomas Lipton, owner of the cup challenger, will be a spectator of the race on Monday. He has accepted an invitation to be the guest of commodore Leonard at dinner on Monday, and the- event will be made the first official welcome to "the' British yachtsman by the officers of the New York yacht club. Other guests will be the owners of the Constitution and Columbia. NEW YORK, August 30.���The Shamrock II took herself out today, and with sir Thomas Lipton and designer Watson on board, passed outside the point of the Hook at 11:05 o'clock for a spin. The wind was blowing eight knots east southeast, and with her sheets to port the yacht made a long tack, heading eastwards to a point opposite the Sandy Hook lightship. About 1:35 o'clock the green yacht's course was changed to the .northwest, and with a 12-knot breeze directly astern an enormous spinnaker was broken out for the first time in these waters. It appeared to set very badly, and in a few minutes was hauled in. The yacht returned to her anchorage at 3 o'clock. At 12:40 o'clock, when about one and a half miles due north of the Sandy Hook lightship, the Shamrock tacked and headed for that vessel. The wind =sliifted^to=southeastT=arid-*-ble%v*ni=stea(:]y= 10-knot breeze. Although there was quite a ground swell out on the ocean the yacht went through the water with less fuss than a sharp-prowed torpedo boat. After the spin sir Thomas Lipton said: "It was a very good light weather trial, but more of a sail stretching spin to get the boat in good condition for Jameson, who will arrive tonight we hope. He will have absolute charge of the yacht when he comes and I want to say that he is worth five minutes to any yacht that sails. We regard him as the best amateur yachtsman in England. The Shamrock will go out at 10 o'clock tomorrow with Mr. Jameson on board. I shall start for Newport with a party on Sunday morning and I hope to see a good race between the two American yachts on Monday."Sir Thomas Lipton when informed that Walter ,t. Kingsley had placed all of the $150,000 sent from England to wager on the Shamrock with a Pittsburg syndicate, said: "I am glad to hear it. What odds did he get?" Sir Thomas declined to make any comments on the wager. merged. They will be propelled by a 120 horse power gasoline engine, when on the surface, and a storage battery when submerged. Each boat will carry a fuel supply that will enable It to steam 400 knots at a surface speed of nine knots, and seven knots when sub-" merged. The armament will consjst of one torpedo tube at the extreme end of the bow, two feet underneath the water line. Each boat will carry five torpedoes 11 3-4 feet long. The engines and the automatic moving rudder will prevent the boat from inclining at angles while diving and rising, will keep them submerged as .long as desired, and, will bring the vessels to a horizontal posi-! tion when submerged. The official trial will consist of a run of ten knots on the surface and two.knots submerged. WOULD IMPEACH SHAFFER HIS STRIKE MANAGEMENT NOW BITTERLY DENOUNCED. THE BALKANS WAR CLOUD Russia Resumes Intrigues.' LONDON, August 30.���The Roumanian premier, M. Sbutraza, recently visited Vienna, where he had a long conference with count Goluchowski, the Austro-Hungarian minister of foreign affairs, on the situation in the Balkans. He conferred with general von Beck, chief of the Austro-Hungarian general staff. Immediately after this visit articles appeared in the semi-official Hungarian papers���articles believed in some quarters to be inspired by count Goluchowski���warmly protesting.against Russia's intrigues in the Balkans. These protests were based on rumors that Russia was massing troops on the Roumanian frontier and sending torpedo boats into the Kilia, an arm of the Danube; and- they plainly warned Russia that unless she faithfully adhere to the Austro-Rus- sian agreement of 1889 to preserve the status quo in the Balkans, Austria will "resume her liberty of action." The idea underlying tnis warning appears to be that Russia,"having attained her objects in Eastern -Asia, is now ready to pursue similar claims in the Balkans. One Berlin paper has gone so far as to describe the agreement qf 1897 as "an instrument to keep Austria quiet while Russia is engaged in Mancnuria." The Daily Mail publishes the following dispatch today from its Vienna correspondent: "From most reliable sources I hear that count Lamsdorff (Russian foreign minister) has arranged for an important conference in Vienna with count Goluchowski after the czar's visit to Rheims." It Looks as if the Great Strike of the Steel Workers Is About to Collapse. Strike Called Off. MONTREAL, August 30.���The general manager of the C. P. R. this morning confirmed the report that the strike of certain of its trackmen had been called off, an understanding having been reached with the committee of the trackmen here. The understanding arrived i at is practically on the basis recommended by the different conciliation committees, who have been in the city for some time past. Reinstatement of strikers not guilty of violence consistent with promises made new hands and the possible granting of a schedule to a certain portion of its permanent staff are features of tho settlement, but no further advances have been made in the wages granted in June last, immediatcl prior to the strike.

SEATTLE, August 30.���Sixty-five determined men, armed and masked, sought to take forcible possession of a piece of rich mining ground in the Nome district August 15th. The property is known as the famous California Fractional bench, above Discovery, on Glacier creek. It was in possession of Fin- ley Mcintosh and a force of 18 men. As a result of the conflict. Richard O'Connor, a Mcintosh workman, lies in a hospital at Nome with a bullet wound in his'left thigh, which it is feared will cause the loss of the limb and possibly his life. Thirteen of the invading force were arrested by United States marshal Richards, charged with participation in a riot, with felonious results and intents. Eugene Richard disputes Mcintosh's possession of the'property, and tho attacking men, it is claimed, were acting in his behalf. Sixty-five men, armed ' and all wearing black cloth masks, came running from behind the rdumpsr^vhei'^e"=tlm=riWif^h7rtl^l)WirTir work. They ordered them off the grounds and ran into the tents'where the shift mon were and told them to get out as quickly as possible. Then a number of them ran down tho hill to where Mcintosh and his men were in camp. O'Connor, who was in bod. began to put on his shoes, but apparently ho did not hurry fast enough, so thoy shot him. It all occurred so quickly that they could hardly realize what had happened. Templars Elect Officers. LOUISVILLE, Kentucky, August 30.��� The grand encampment of Knights Templar has elected Henry Bates Stoddard of Bryan, Texas, grand commander, to succeed Reuben H. Lloyd of California. Colonel George A. Moulton of Chicago was elected to succeed Mr. Stoddard as deputy grand master. Rev. W. H.

Gardner Wins From Carter. SAN FRANCISCO, August 30.���Oscar Gardiner won from Kid Carter tonight in the 18th round. PITTSBURG, August 30.���While thera is no actual change in the strike situation,, much transpired today calculated' to produce results in the near future. The conference between the Bayview committee and the Amalgamated officials, the continued efforts of president Burns of the Window Glass Workers Association to bring about arbitration oi*, conciliation, the scathing editorial in the Labor World calling for the impeachment of president Shaffer, the march of the strikers of McKeesport to Duquesne, and the decided effect of the" injunction proceedings at Canal Dover, " Ohio, all indicate that the crisis*is approaching and that an important change in affairs is not far distant. What-the outcoine will be no man can tell. The details of the conference of the Bayview- convention and the Amalgamated officials have not yet been divulged by either party, but the fact that the committee is here at all would indicate that the Bayview strikeis are uneasy.^ J. D. Hi.ckey and J. F. Cooper of the committee; have been here since . Monday, but their presence has not been .generally known. The general belief ^ -is that the main object of the commit- - tee's visit was for the purpose of arranging some compromise by which the Bayview plant may resume. President - Shaffer, on the contrary, says the two men did not come here as -representa- ' tives of: the Bayview lodge. They were simply here as individual members of the Amalgamated Association to explain in person the reason-for their ac- ' tion in regard to general strike order, and the reversal of that decision after- Tighe's visit to Milwaukee. The two gentlemen left for home tonight, and, it is said, a meeting of their lodge will' be held upon their return to take action in the report, v Notwithstanding the report from New York that no conference has been held or arranged between C. M. Schwab and Simon Burns looking toward arbitration, the latter has not relaxed his cffoits in this direction and seems determined to bring about some sort of a compromise. The editorial in the current issuo of the Labor World, the organ of the International Tin Workers' Protective Association, and the mouthpiece of the Pittsburg district Mine Workers' Union and the Patternmakers' Association, is a long and bitter attack on president Shaffer and demands his impeachment for calling the present strike. The de-- mand for impeachment is made because- it is charged Shaffer compelled the steel workers to violate contracts, because he expelled the Chicago men and revoked their charter without constitutional bearing, and because the whole strike is unconstitutional and has brought ruin and wreck to men who have made the Amalgamated Association. The editorial gives twenty-four reasons why 'president Shaffer should be impeached. =The~fa^tnh"at~GWi^iriirowi?117T>i'eRidont of the Tin Plate Workers' Protective Association of America. Ij. E. Thomas, prosident of the Patternmakers' League, and Patrick Dolan, president of the United Mine Workers of Pittsburg district, constitute the board of control of the publication, and president Shaffer Shaffer himself iip to within a year ago, was a member of tho board, would seem to lend considerable weight to the utterances of the paper. The march of the McKeesport strikers to Duquesne this afternoon was a disappointment to the strikers, partly because of a heavy rain during the parade and the meeting in an open lot, and partly because of a lack of enthusiasm. It was expected at least 5000 strikers would take part In the march, but by actual count there were 553 in line. NKW YORK, August 30.���It was said today at the oflice of the United States Steel Corporation that no conference with Simon Burns or any one else representing the Amalgamated Association had been arranged or was contemplated. PITTSBURG, August 30.���It is reported here that a'conference by long distance telephone has been arranged for this afternoon between Charles M. Schwab, president of the United States Steel Corporation, and Simon Burns, president of the National Window Glass Workers' Association. Mr. Burns is in this city and is trying to arrange another meeting with the Amalgamated oflicers and the officers of the Steel Corporation for the purpose of settling the strike. to the strike. The final settlement has been recommended by the conciliation committees as fair and reasonable, under all the circumstances. It is understood that both parties are satisfied.

John Houston. Manager. Nel.son, B. C. The Rossland Miner finds fault with the census returns of Rossland, and claims that the correct figures are 6165, and not 6138 as published. Twenty- seven inhabitants more or less cuts little figure; but when a town has over a thousand people cut out of its population there is good reason to Icicle. Nelson's population is, apparently, an unknown quantity. The boundaries of the town are defined in the act of incorporation, but none of the census enuemra- tors knew where the boundary lines ran. If'they guessed at it, and left out Hoover Addition and Hume Addition and Fairview, then they left out about 2000 people. If they included these three additions, then they have counted at We are daily in recelit ot fresh photo supplies ���films, printing papers, plates, chemicals, and all developing accessories. We have all the standard kodaks and cameras, and have some dainty aibums for mounting prints, in the standard sizes, at 20c, 25c, and 35c. each; they are wonderful value, being made of dark matte mounting paper with neat cover and tied with silk cord.

It is just possible that the population of Nelson will not be known; but, at any rate, there will be no kick registered if the figures when officially announced are only 27 short of the actual count. ��� ��� ��� - . Spokane's mayor, who went into office with the avofed determination to abate the saloon nuisance, known as the side- door entrance, has fallen down. The political power of the saloons was too much for the mayor to stand up against. In order to bring about reforms, officials must be proof against political pressure. No matter in what way money is made, whether honestly or dishonestly, those making it object to being interfered with. In Spokane-the "disreputable saloons havec> side entrances, and back rooms to which vicious men and women are admitted. It is an evil, and it was to have been suppressed in Spokane, but Spokane's mayor was tried and he has been found a weakling. The men of Nelson who cannot see why workingmen should organize to protect their interests were quite jubilant yesterday jn the belief that the Le Roi directors had wired Bernard McDonald that they sustained him in the course he had adopted to smash the Rossland Miners' Union. According to the press reports from London, no such action was taken by the shareholders; and, further, according to these same reports, there are now but three directors in the company, and four is a quorum. . The arrest of the government agent at Revelstoke for an alleged shortage of $3000 is a warning to the Conservative party. None but men of tried honesty should be put on guard in offices of responsibility and trust. Fauquier could not live in the style that befitted ��� a gentleman of his cloth on his salary, and as he could not live in any other style than befitted a gentleman, he had to use the government funds without first getting permission of the government. The subordinate officials of Nelsou do not lack the ability to perform the duties for which they are hired. They simply, at times, are lacking in application; they have frequent recurrences of a complaint known as "tired feeling." There is but one remedy for the disease when it has become chronic, that is, "fire," and not "fire water." Thorpe & Co. bottle it. Ironbrew. -KeeTENArYrrr.

And Prominent Labor Leader.
Everybody'in the iron and steel business, and especially in the labor organizations connected therewith, calls him
■"Dorry" Shaffer. His name is Theodore
J. Shaffer, and his title, president of
v the Amalgamated Association of Iron
:and Steel and Tin Workers. Still, very
few call him Mr. Shaffer, and nobody
L»'calls him Theodore. He used to be a
minister, and ills maner of greeting a
•stranger. cis the glad-to-see-you, conie-
:and-join-us method of the camp-meeting
exhorter. When he was a boy he worked
in the iron mills. Then, in early man-
Iioocl, he studied theology, and preached
i Methodist pulpits for "eight years.
, After that his health broke and he kept
a grocery store. Ho made some money,
_mt the old liking foi* the iron" mills
came back and he went to Syork rolling
again. He has always been a good
union man, and his education and natural ability made him'most valuable to
the Amalgamated Association when the
complicated question of scales came up
each year. When president Garland rc-
: tired Shaffer was made president of
tlie association. He is 45 years old now.
>• Shaffer got his education under difficulties. He had to support a widowed
mother and some younger brothers and
sisters. When he became imbued with
the idea that he had a call to preach the
• gospel he was a roller's helper, aged 17.
He went to see a Methodist minister
of his acquaintance and was told just
what he would have to do. He was getting good money—four or five dollars a
..day—in; the mills. .If:: he gave that up.
'there would be no income:for the fam-
■• -'-ilyi X 'So he took a, night-shift job and
went to; the Wesleyan Theological Col-'-
'lege in. the daytime.; When he went' on
at ;.nightrhe took his books with him
and worked out his Latin conjugations
: with chalk on the housings of-his mill.
'-There, too, he,, solved his problems in
V-algebra and studied the art of sentence-
-making. He always had a book or rhetoric with him. He had a certain rude
facility of speech and composition/ and
he studied- assiduously to perfect liim-
self. At night, when the great rolls
were slowly turning out the sheet steel
he declaimed amid the clamor of the
mills'and cultivated the power of throat
-and lung that enables him to be heard
when a thousand noisy iron workers are
-gathered in front of him.
Shaffer is *a tall man nearly six feet
in.his stockings. He is broad across the
shoulders and has an oval chest and the
slight stoop of the man who' has done
-much heavy work with his hands. ' His
.jiair was red when he was a boy. Man-;
Jiood changed it to that* indefinite indeterminate color the Scotch call "Sandy." His complexion is light, and the
red stubble of his beard gives his cheeks
the peculiar mottled apearance of the
strong man whose hair is light. His
hair is the most noticeable thing about
him. It is thick and bushy and is swept
back from his high forehead in a careless wave. His eyes are gray and far
apart. His nose is long and sharp. His
=clieeks^are—hoHow-and^th.re^are^deep'
depressions under his eyes. His arms
are long and ungainly and his hands
huge and knotted. He walks with quick
stride, and at times almost runs, so
great is-his enthusiasm to get to the
place.for which he has started.
Shaffer speaks well. His elonuence if
Jike that of Bryan. He has the same
sort of a .musical, well-modulated voice,
and when he talks seems to get into a
frenzy of inspiration and rolls out his
words so fast it is often difficult to follow him. The ministerial teaching has
left its impress on him. He talks to
the iron workers are interspersed with
references to the Almighty and he
makes frequent Biblical allusions. At
times he seems almost to be preaching
a sermon. Then suddenly he cuts loose
in the familiar talk of the ironmen and
exhorts them to stand by and organize,
just as a roller would talk to a pudcller
or a heater.
Shaffer, when he was in the iron mills,
worked all about Pittsburg. He was in
the mills at McKeesport and at Wellsville. In 1S6S he worked as a riveter
on the big Pittsburg and Alleghany
bridge. The men in this section all
know him, and when he goes on the
platform he is greeted with cries of
"Hello, Dorry, do you remember old
times?" or "Hello, Dorry, you're getting
thin, old man!" -
Shaffer has a brain that works as
quick as lightning. He sees through a
proposition iri a minute and gives a direct answer almost before the statement
being, made to him is finished. He is
clumsy and almost uncouth at times in
his dealings with men, for he has none
of-the finesse of other labor leaders. He
jumps into an argument and hits out
right and left without regard to whom
he may hurt. The reporters are a great
trial to him. He has never before this
been accustomed to seeing press men,
except the labor men for the various
Pittsburg papers, all of whom he knows
intimately and who meet with him as-
personal friends rather than as news-
gatherers. Consequently, when a lot of
out-of-town correspondents begin to ask
•him rapid-fire questions he prances
around and gets excited and at times
vehement. He is so thoroughly impressed with the right of his cause that he
cannot see how any newspaper can
print, either editorially or in its news
columns, any criticism of the Amalgamated Association, ana when he sees
SAVINGS BANK DEPARTMENT:

GRANGE V. HOLT,
Manager Nelson Branch.
such criticism he takes it as a personal
affront and gives the correspondents of
the offending paper a rating every time
he sees them.
He is the wildest sort of enthusiast.
He believes absolutely that everything
connected with the Amalgamated-Association is exactly right, and that the
Steel Trust in this present argument is
absolutely wrong. No one can convince
him that he has a chance to lose. So
fervent is he' that he said in a. speech
to the Clark mills strikers: "Rather
than sign a scale that does not include
every man on strike or going on strike,
I would give up my place as president
of the Amalgamated Association." He
meant it.

Wanted the Money, not the Lover.
: A report of the arrest of a man and
woman at Calgary for stealing money
and jewelry at Portland,^Oregon, appeared in The Tribune this week. The
following from the Vancouver Province
gives additional particulars:.
Detective Frank Day of the Portland
police force left Vancouver this afternoon for Calgary, for the purpose of
securing $7500, of stolen money, besides
a lot of jewelry. The detective came
to; Vancouver on an exceedingly interesting case. The money is owned by a
prominent citizen of . Portland named
Henry Watson, and the manner in which
the cash was taken involves several people, besides those prominently in evidence.0 The disclosures regarding the
case- caused a sensation in Portland,
where the parties were all well-known,
and the affair caused a greatv deal of
comment. The trouble arose partially
out of a family disagreement, It appears that Watson had been married to
a sister of Mrs;-Emma Burgess, who is
now under arrest in Calgary, with her
brother, George Callow. The sister had
had trouble with Watson^ and they had
a separation. Then Watson wanted to
marry Mrs. Burgess, who is a pretty
woman and a widow. .His affection was
apparently returned by the latter, and
the wedding would probably have taken
place this week, if all the arrangements
had been carried out according to program. Unfortunately, Watson had business in Eastern Oregon, and he went
there. Before his departure he left
his money, amounting to over $7000, in
the care of his bride-to-be. He showed
her where the money was secreted in a
trunk, so that she could remove it in
case of fire. According to detective Day,
Watson had just left the city when the
lady took all the money, and with her
brother left for the north. They passed
through Mission Junction with the coin,
as well as a quantity of jewelry, and
were arrested at Calgary on Sunday
night. Detective Day is now going up
to get the money back, and if he succeeds in recovering the cash, he will
not bother Mrs. Burgess nor Callow,
who will be liberated.

Armstrong, Ed. Sanders and VV. M. Ridpath of Spokane and B. W. Layton of Ohio, returned from Marysville yesterday where they have been sizing up the situation with a view to erecting, a smelter there for the treatment of the output of the Sullivan group of mines in which they are heavily interested. They have decided on the smelter and it will be run up as quickly as possible. This will mean a great deal to the mines in the vicinity of the Sullivan, who are all in the same boat in that, they have no outlet for their ores. With the, exception of colonel Ridpath the party'went through to Spokane yesterday; morning and the colonel left on the afternoon train'for the Boun- "dary.' ��� ' ' - y / y .'��� -��� 7 Has Not Changed Its Name. A well-known railway man, who .makes his headquarters at Rossland, has referred a; bet 'to the sporting editor of this high-class family journal to decide. The" bet is as^follows: "A bets B,- that the Rossland Miner, was first named the Rossland Recorder, and that Ross Thompson did riot help get out the first number." Tile man that started the Rossland Miner intended to name the paper the Rosslahd Recorder, but he was. compelledvto drop- that name, because EberC. Smithgot. out a paper at Colfax, named the Rossland Record arid circulated it in Rossland a week before the first number : of the Miner was issued. Ross Thompson owned the cabin in which the Miner was printed,, and w illingly assisted iri: many ways to get but the first number. He helped do the presswork and acted" as "devil." "Bert" Crane, the first president of the Rossland Miners' Union, was assistant "devil." John Houston- did the typesetting and the other heavy work. John M. Burke, Peter Porter, and colonel Topping acted as assistant editors, and John R. Cooke got up the diagram of the mines which appeared -on one of its pages. The Miner has not' changed its name; but, good lord, how it has changed its reputation. Here is your chance to-get all kinds of Winter Clothing and Gent's Furnishingsat your own price.

There has been a great deal of bucking among the members of the band and the latest proposition is to make it a distinctly military affair, in which the instruments and everything else will belong to the local com- nany. "Billy" MacAdams, manager of Sandon's base ball team, is grieved to learn that he is unable to get on a game with either tho Kelson or tho Cranbrook or the Trail or the Fernie or the Rossland or the Greenwood aggregations of base ball players, and says Sandon must indeed have a hard reputation on the out- Went $238 to the Ton. "The Trout Lake Topic of Saturday last says: "The returns from the recent __sjyp_mejLt^of=Triune=ore=have=been=-re-= ceived. They give a net value on almost 21 tons of $238 to the ton. The total gross gold value was ?412.70, or about $19 per ton. The total gross silver value is $4722.76, or within a few cents of $225 to the ton. The total gross lead value was $299.71, or a few cents over $14 to the ton. The total, gross, of all values was $5435, and deducting $21' for freight and treatment charges from the Landing, gives a net return of $4996. From this take the charge for freight from the mine to the Landing, $25 per ton, and the total proiit is $4471, or a total profit per ton of $212. Out of this will have to be taken the cost of mining and living expenses, which will reduce this figure to about $200 per ton, which goes into the pockets of the owners free of any further tax on it, which is a wonderful showing with the metal market in the shape it is today," Company Wants Tonnage. Property owners in this district may just as well face the facts and conditions existing here today as years hence. We claini to have all kinds of ore in this camp and it is true we have. .But what the railway people want is our evidence. A representative of the C. P. R. was m town during the past week and he assured the Eagle that as soon as we could guarantee his company a daily ore tonnage of 100 tons he was prepared to say that the railway would at once be built to Ferguson: Now here is a fair and square proposition. What are we prepared to do? The Nettie L. owners have offered a daily output of 50 tons a day, but who will undertake to supply the other 50 tons?���Lardeau Eagle. Ontario and the Census. Chief census commissioner Blue was the other day asked if the, population as given out by the census bureau would result in any reduction in the parliamentary representation of Ontario. Mr. Blue replied: .. "Something depends on the correct interpretation of sub-section 4 of section 51 of the British North American Act, which says that the number of members for a province shall not he reduced unless the proportion which the number of population of the prov ince bears to the number of the aggregate population of Canada at the then last preceding readjustment of the number of -members for the province is ascertained at the then latest census to be diminished by one-twentieth part or upwards. Perhaps the meaning of this language will, be more clearly understood by quoting number 21 of the resolutions of the parliament of Canada, which formed the basis of the Act of Confederation, and which reads: 'No reduction shall be made in the number of members returned by any section unless its population shall have decreased relatively to the population of the whole.-, union to the extent of five per centum.' Assuming that the final figures of population will not materially change the proportion of the population of Ontario to the rest of the, Dominion it appears to be certain that "no reduction whatever will be made in the present representation /of that province in parliament. According to the census of 1891 the population of Ontario to that of the whole country was as 1000. to 2296, while by the present census; the proportion is as 1000. to 2458. This makes the proportion_of_reduction=aboutj=ohQ-= thirty-second, which, being less, than one-twentieth, of course brings Ontario within the operation of the saving clause of the Act, and not liable to any disturbance of its present representation. Assuming the population of Ontario to stand at the figures now published, the total population of Canada must be increased to 5,600,000 before any reduction can be made in the representation of Ontario, o " ��� Disaffection at the Capo. LONDON, August 30.���The Cologne Gazette's correspondent in Capetown declares that the entire Cape Colony is a "seething mass of disorder and alarm." He asserts also that the Boers are receiving support from all sides. In the early part of August a correspondent of the Morning Post had a long talk with lord Kitchener from which he gathered that "it is not lord Kitchener but the government that is to blame for many of the present evils'."' Lord Kitchener, it seems, complained that the home government continually Worried him about trivial details " merely to reply to parliamentary heckling" and this compelled him to enforce a strict censorship over telegrams although personally he objected to the present sys-' tern. He said he thougn _ correspondents should be given great liberty and to be made responsible. ness AUCTION SALE ��� Dry Goods Gent5s Furuishiugs, Boots, Shoes, Hats and Caps.
