Phone 68 London, Aug. 1.—In the house of commons yesterday, proposing a resolution granting Field Marshal Karl Roberts £100,000 for his services in South Africa. A. J. Balfour, the government leader, in the course of a eulogy of the field marshal, whom he compared wilh such men as Collingwood, Nelson, Marlboro and Wellington, said there was no doubt that but for Lord Roberts' daring strategy and rapidity with which his plans were carried out, Kimberley and Mafeking would have fallen, 11,000 British would have been starved into submission at Ladysmith and there would have been a general rising of disloyalists in South Africa. Great Britain might have recovered therefrom, but at what a cost. The country was saved from this by the genius of the man lie now invited the house (0 reward by a unanimous vote, irrespective of political differences. The statement called forth protests from the Irish members. The Liberal leader, Sir Henry Camp- bell-Bttnnerman, concurred in the motion. John Dillion, Irish Nationalist, strongly opposed the vote, protesting against mentioning Lord Roberts in assocition with such it man as Marlboro. He declared Lord Roberts had shown the greatest inhumanity in South Africa and said he had employed barbarous methods and had proved himself a dismal failure. Kicr Hardie, Socialist, and Independent Labor, declared that in tjje opinion of experts at home and abroad Lord Roberts' failure primarily was responsible for the continuance of the war. After further debate for and agafnst the measure, Mr. Balfour moved the closure, which was carried by 257 to 10S. The resolution was afterwards adopted by a vote 281 to 73.

Referring to the actions of bogus United States Marshal Lamb, the Northport News of Wednesday gives the following account of his arrest: During the progress of the trial four smelter guards marched into the court room armed with big revolvers. HarkneBS ordered them placed under arreBt and one guard drew his revolve on D ?puty Sheriff Anderson" The latter drew his gtin as quick as a flash and covered all of them, and another guard said, "don't give up your weapons." ■ At this remark he laid his hand ,on his revolver, but Councilman Field grabbed him and they were all disarmed. ARE SHORT OF HELP VERY CLOSE GALL How Two Special Engines Were Sent For. KADISH TAKES TO THE WOODS Salmon Canneries Need Men-Plenty of Fish- High Wages. New Whatcom, Wash., Aug. 1.— The salmon are just beginning to reach the Fraser river, and the fishermen there are beginning to report good sized catches. All the canneries are short of help, too, and the managers are using every endeavor to get all grades of labor; men, women, boys and girls, to whom they are willing to pay the highest kind of wages. Many of the little girls are making $3 per day, and anyone can get work that applies. The boatmen are working night and day and almost sleep ou their feet. The run of salmon continues and all the canneries on Ihe Puget sound have more than they can handle. Fish are being left in the traps because the canneries cannot put them up. As salmon will keep in good shape in a trap for a week at least, if not overcrowded, the boats take out enough to keep them from suffocating each other and leave the balance in the trap till such times as the cannery can take care of them. We have too many beans and peas on hand, we will sell them for 5c per pound. Paulson Bros. tf MONTHLY RETURNS Le Roi, Ymir and Athabasca Returns Up to July 1st.

Northport, Aug. 1, 4 p.m.—Bela Kadish, the smelter superintendent, had a narrow escape yesterday. He got as far as Marcus in the morning and learning of the issuing of a warrant at Northport for his arrest on the charge of carrying fire arms he decided to retreat south. He wired Spokane and North' port tor a special engine to take him south. The engine from North- port reached Marcus first and carried off the smelter superintendent on his way south. In the meantime the special from Spokane was coming up at great speed as the wire ordering it had been very urgent, and through some mistake the two specials nearly collided. Fortunately there was a straight bit of road where they met and each had fair warning of tho other's approach and with the aid of the brakes the two locomotives were brought to a standstill without any damage except a doubly scared smeller superintendent. A special train carrying 80 men who had been got together at Duluth, Minnesota, to come and work at Northport hag been successfully interviewed by union agents along the road and all of the men have been turned loose on- the harvost fields in place of coming here. Several more of the Leadville party got away from the smelter last night, and today and the total number at work is being reduced to between 50 and 60 once more.

RAMBLER- CARIBOO Stock Climbing Up-Work on the Property-Mill Purchased. For the first time since the inauguration of the trackmen's strike, Kamloops is infected with a "scab" outbreak says the Sentinel. Strictly guarded.and provided with a special "armored train," a gang some .50 or 60 "scabB" are now employed in the yards. The gang is made up of imported Italians and Japs. The former probably do not know that the strike is on. They are ignorant of our language, and being brought out here by the C.P. R. under contract imagine they have to stay with the job, and moreover, the special constables with their revolvers', exercise a coercive influence. The Japs aie. doubtless, provided by bosses in Vancouver, who can practically compel them to work whether they want to or not. It is satisfactory anyhow lo know that this is the only class of labor the C. P. R. can secure in Canada ready to suffer the degradation of "scabbing." Wanted—a good eight or nine hundred pound horse, suitable for delivery wagon. Paulson Bros. Tlio Sohool Bull-Hug. Victoria, Aug. 1.—Hon. J. D.

I.—The city hall had a narrow escapo from destruction by fire this morning. The loss will reach $10,000. The stock of tho Rambler-Cariboo company has been steadily rising for some time and has now touched the half dollar mark. The Sandon Paystreak has the following to say of the mine and its latest move. The Rambler-Cariboo company has purchased the Washington mill from Mitchell & St. Jean and Thos. Mitchell now has a gang of mechanics moving the machinery to a point lower ■ down the creek where it will be set up to treat the Rambler rock. The Washington mill waB built in '95 by Mitchell and St. Jean to handle the product of the Washington mine but has never been used to any great extent. It is a 600-ton mill with a Blake crusher, three pair of rolls, six Hurt/, jigs, turmmel system, hydraulic classifiers and round tables. It is a very oomplete plant and when set. up and supplied with plenty of water will easily over Montreal, Aug. 1.—Marquis de la (iandara of Rome is in town.

London, August 1.—A sensation occurred this morning in Rotten Row, the famous track in Hyde Park, London, running parallel to the drive, and exclusively reserved for equestrians. Among those who took part in the big gathering of rank and fashion was the Marchioness of Londonderry, who fell from her horse. Her ladyBhip was riding along the row, when her strange action attracted attention. Then her horse stopped and the marchioness immediately fell to the ground in a fit. She was driven to her residence and later was reported to be improving. 1** Jmm The Evening World By the World .Publishing Company.

Kossland, U. I <___DO SCAB LAW BREAKERS. Notwithstanding the detailed accounts which have been published almost daily about the progress of events at Northport, then- are kindly disposed people in Rossland who gravely doitbt whether the reported trials and convictions of the smelter officials for gun carrying, resisting the officers and general misconduct, are really true. It is incredible, say these gentle critics, that any officials of a company under British control, such as the Le Roi Smelter company is, should openly and defiantly break "the law in the manner described. Yet Lamb and the rest of the gang have all been arrested, disarmed and fined. Over five hundred and fifty dollars in fines alone has so fai been imposed and paid, not, be it well marked by the Btrikors or anyone connected with them, but by scab smelter watchmen and smelter officials generally. It is to the credit of the local authorities that they have acted promptly in the matter and have done everything in thoir power to prevent tho carrying of arms by anyone. Wc hope such a disgraceful disregard of the law is impossible on this side of the line even by a powerful company like the [iii Roi, but it is well to remember that Kadish, the smelter superintendent, is acting under the direct personal supervision of Bernard Macdonald and that a word from the general manager would stop all this criminal foolishness of carrying Winchesters and revolvers. If the report wired the Woui.n at 4 p. m. yesterday was correct Mr. Bela Kadish having learned that there was a warrant out for his arrest wisely returned to Spo* kano, although he had reached Marcus on his way north yesterday morning. If the local justices are able to impress upon Mr. Kadish and his orderly officials that the kind of conduct attempted will not he permitted and that the law will be vigorously applied without fear or favor, serious trouble may yet be averted. In view of the trials and con victions which have taken place at Northport within the last week wo invite the editor in chief of the Rossland Daily Miner, Mr. Bernard Macdonald, to comment un the very peculiar state of affairs shown to exist. The Miner, might also, with profit to the community at the present tiuii.', take up the account published in these colunis of the trip from Leadville to Northport by the 70 men brought there by the smelter press gang. Mr. Davis, whose account we published, is here and the common test of all evidence-cross examinination-can be readily applied to him and his story either by the miner, or any one doubting the (ruth of tho facts related. NOTES AND COMMENTS. The Kamloops Sentinel, which is doing great work on behalf of the striking C. P. It. trackmen, remarks on the refusal of Manager McNicoll to arbitrate; "Manager McNicoll has declined to meet the Railway Brotherhoods' conciliation committee, and is apparently determined to prolong the trackmen's strike indefinitely, utterly regardless of the convenience and safety of the traveling public and the trainmen. From the outset public sympathy has been with the nibii, and now that Manager McNicoll has declined to refer the trackmen's grievances to arbitration^ popular feeling will he the ihore strongly on the side of the strikers." It is proposed to hold an exposition at Bendigo in Victoria, Aus tralia, near the close of the present year, to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the discovery of gold in Australia, in 1851. Preparations are being made to interest all of the States of the new Commonwealth of Australia, and the exposition will be on a very considerable scale. The offence of personating a United States marshal is a very serious ono over the line and any one convicted of the crime is likely to get a heavy sentence. We know how to deal with such offenders in Canada. Just fancy Frank Vaughn's joy at encountering a bogus Canadian constable, and the celerity with which the "official" would be put "inside." The Toronto Globe pays a kindly tribute to the memory of the late Senator George W. Allan who died at his home in Toronto on July 24th. The Globe describes the deceased gentleman as "Toronto's first citizen" and warmly eulogizes thiB Conservative senator for the high stand he took on all public questions, and for the active, practical, and intelligent interest he invariably displayed in matterB touching the good of the community among which he passed a long and honored life. ' The riot at thc meeting in London yesterday of the Standard Ex ploration company's shareholders is an intimation of what may be expected a little later on when further revelations are made public. If the shareholders have lost all their money they can at least make it very warm and unpleasant for those who are responsible for the fraud practiced on the investing public.

Everything First- Class and Quick Service at the HOFFMAN HOUSE. London, Aug. 1.—There is only one explanation for Mr. Kennan's expulsion from Russia, and that is (hat the Russian government has not recovered from the effects of the Siberian exile system, which has been greatly modified since Mr. Kennan wrote about it. His ex pulsion was simply a question of policy which has not affected the personal attitude of other friends towards Mr. Kennan, who was in vited to places where the highest government officials were present. A responsible official of the press department of tho ministry said to the correspondent of the Associated PreBB on Mr. Kennan's arrival: "I do not think that anybody heredoubts Mr. Kennan'sgood faith. We believe he made an honest and sincere investigation of our prison exile system; that he was misled by those he trusted, and was often imposed upon. His perspective was wrong. One can give a bad impression of any country if one selects the most repulsive subjects to write about. Personally I think Mr. Kennan's book did a great deal of good. Our press is now allowed to discuss the conditions of exile with a freedom not dreamed of several years ago. The shameful conditions prevailing in the Island of Sakhalien were lately exposed courageously, by a St. Petersburg newspaper, and the worst abuses have been corrected." Mr. Kennan is going to London, from thence he will gd to Nova Scotia. y • Ox Heart Cherries, very nice eating, $1 per box at Paulson Bros.

Besides numerous mineral claims many of which will, in my opinion, unquestionably develop into mines, there is also along Whipsaw and Nine-mile creeks and lhe Similkameen river coal measures. There is also another possible industry that may eventually become important. Near by are large deposits of clay suitable for Ihe manufacturing of pottery, fire bricks, sewer pipe, etc. Immediately below the townsite iB a splendid site for a smelter, and if the future justifies the erection of a plant the product of both Kennedy and Copper camps could easily be trammed down the mountain side at slight expense.

Box 568 complete my ar- jtmUn^ ^^^ tKHKH'^ia Rossland, li. C, July 12th, 1901,. 7b thc Citizens and Business Men of Rossland and Vicinity and to the General Public: ■..- .... Tbe business and social interests of a community are so closely interwoven in a community like Rossland, that any dispute among the industrial elements fbrmirig the social structure, is often more disastrous to the business or non-combattant class around which the labor and capital elements revolve, than to the actual combattants themselves. Thus both labor and capital are morally obligated to strive to adjust their disputes, to protect the social structure of which they are separate parts. For this reason this union deems it well to make a careful statement of all the reasons leading us to.precipitate this industrial strife at this time. Since the agreement between thec big corporations of Rossland and Rossland Miners'Union in April1, 1900, this city has apparently enjoyed industrial peace ; yet all who are conversant with the industrial affairs of Rossland for the past fifteen months know there has been a secret warfare waged against this Miners' Union, which has been nearly as destructive'to the business interests of the community as an open struggle between the two industrial forces, and worse in that there is no apparent end to be seen. . «#' We have given long and careful consideration to this matter and. have reached the " conclusion that the foundation of the trouble rests on the fact that nearly one-half of the employees in the mines of this community receive about 20 per cent less wages than the same class of labor in surrounding camps, many of which camps have a lower grade of ore and are less favorably situated than Rossland. We believe that it is to continue to enforce this unjust scale of wages that so many annoying practices have been introduced to undermine the prestige of this Miners' Union of Rossland. First.—An annoying system of espionage and blacklisting by which many of our ablest members have been compelled to seek employment in other localities, although of unquestioned ability in their trade. Second.— By revoking a time honored privilege of the Secretary being allowed to solicit members among the non-union employees of the companies who might be off duty on the premises of the companies, a privilege guaranteed us by the last half of Article 15 of the agreement of April, 1900; thus preventing us from refilling our ranks depleted by loss of members compelled to seek employment in other fields. Third.—By connection with bogus employment agencies seeking to flood the overcrowded labor market with cheap foreign labor. Finally.—By the largest corporation in this vicinity openly seeking and striving to crush a sister union at Northport, Wash. i. 1 " ■' -cJ , ■ " . We believe all these efforts are mainly to enforce this unjust scale of wafeejs and to prevent all efforts towards an increase. Therefore we have fully resolved that there can be no industrial peace in Rossland and vicinity until this wage question, is finally and satisfactorily settled. Then will this fair city enjoy the prosperity for which nature has so evidently intended it. ... For this result we ask the moral aid and support of the many diverse bodies making he general public of this city. ■ .' Especially we ask your aid in maintaining order, without which we cannot succeed. There can be no permanent settlement but a just settlement, and to this end we will use all our power as an organization, and all the assistance of the Western Federation of Miners. We have right on our side and must surely win. EXECUTIVE BOARD ROSSLAND MINERS' UNION No. 38, W. F. M \LcYA
