Consequently the pay (or April waa distributed yesterday. Without having ofnclal figures to Quote, a close estimate places the amount paid out by the three large companies operating In Uie Boundary at 1186,000. and there ls every reason to believe that this estimate Is conservative. Tbe figures, on thla basis, would be divided about as follows among the three large companies: Oraaby, $76*00; B. C. Copper Co., 126,000; Dominion Copper Co., $85,000; total, $126,000. Tbls does not Include tbe payroll for the work being done on new construction, nor tbat for the many smaller high grade mines being operated in different camps In the Boundary. ln Phoenix camp, there waa paid out yesterday nearly halt of the above amount, namely $60,000.

He had been tried by the constituted district tribunal of the church and convicted ot drunkenness.

After completing the abstract of evidence, legal advice will be taken before the conference action, which may be either endorsement of disallowance ot the suspension, or even dismissal from the ministry. A second case ot even greater gravity may be said to be not yet before the conference.proper, although It has been discussed in the ministerial seaslon, but rather before the Victoria district church authorities to which Rev. W. J. Stone Is subordinate, Tbe , accusation ls that Rev. Stone, who ls a missionary engaged on the west coast of the Island, Is guilty of the ruin of his own 17-year-old daughter.

St. Petersburg, May 11.—The formal opening of the reorganized council of the empire, or upper house of parliament, took lacs this afternoon In the hall of the nobles at the Winter palace. The ministers wore their full regalia, the members bfs the chancellery wore court dresses and swords. The doors were guarded by servants In picturesque livery and the boxes were occupied by diplomats and high officials and richly dressed women and though a number of elective members were not in uniform the colored smock and kaftan of the peasants and the high boots and rough coats of the workmen were not ln evidence. The majority of the elective members, Indeed, who came from the landed nobility and upper ranks of commerce, vied with tbe appointlves In the number and richness of their decorations. The only sturdy little group ot liberal professors, pledged to move that the sentence of death be Imposed upon the existence of the legislative body to which they were elected, came In democratic simplicity, their civil garb not being relieved by a ribbon or a medal. White the lower house Is distinctively a body of new men. the names of the members of the council of the empire can be found in the index of Russian history of the past -century, including Ignntieffs, AlexleRs, Pobedtentselts and the DoulogoukoffB ot the old regime, a mass of retired ministers, soldiers anil statesmen of the, past, the heads of many of Russia's noblest families. Though picturesque as a pageant, today's ceremony was uneventful .and unimportant historically. Atter count Solsky, the president, had declared the session opened, the transaction of business began. It consisted of the announcements of the appointments of officers and the signing of the oath of office.- The only surprise wss the reading of an announcement tbat count Wltte was a working member of the council, the omission of his name from the previous Hat having heen Interpreted as a deliberate slight, which the csar evidently took pains to correct. The unexpected appearance of the tall form of the former premier at the door was the first intimation of the czar's action and it created a buzz of excitement. The explanation of his appesr- ance came later when a ukase was read appointing count Witte and M. Manuk- hin, former minister of Justice, to be members of the council of the empire. The organization of the council was preceded by a religious service. After the members had signed the oath, the body adjourned.

The people need our system and Judging by the nature ot the encouragement we are receiving on all hands the people want It and are unanimously ln favor Ot having lt." The fact that Nelson boasts a brickyard, which ln the put has given employment to a good many hands, seems to have been lost sight of In placing recent contracts for brick for the city power plant. Other things being equal, It Is sound policy to favor a home concern for the supply of materials required for civic works. Wm. Hancock, who conducts the Nelson brickyards, Is carrying on an Important Industry under somewhat difficult circumstances, the local demand for bricks being extremely limited. His product so tar as quality la concerned, ls admittedly superior to anything of the kind produced elsewhere ln the Interior, and, of course, should 'e'.'h a higher price. It is not always possible to place contracts with local Arms, but the rule should be (hat no orders should be sent abroad tt by any arrangement a' local Arm's product can be utilised. A brickyard giving steady employment to half a dozen or a dozen men, Is a factor In the Industrial life of the community that la not to be despised. The order tor 150,000 bricks tor tbe city power plant that has been placed with an outside Arm would have kept the local factory busy for sometime. As It Ib Nelson's brickyard la likely to be closed down In the near future, or worked on a very small scale. The encouragement ot home In-ius- tries and trading with local Arms are subjects to which the 20,000 club might profitably devote careful attention.

THOMSON festendState THE HILL INVASION In view of his prospective . visit to Winnipeg, the Tribune of that city, sent a representative to St Paul to Interview J. J. Hill, the president of the Great Northern railway., The Tribune representative enjoyed a three hours' chat with th. great railroad magnate and hia report ot the Interview, as It appears In the Tribune ot May 8, makes one ol the most interesting and instructive articles upon western railroad development that has ever appeared in the public press. It would be Impossible In the course ot a brief article to deal at all adequately with the many topics pertinent to the subject that J. J. Hill touched upon, bnt some (ew extracts (rom the published Interview will serve to Indlate the true Inwardness of the "Hill Invasion" and to give some Idea of J. J. Hill's views on such interesting phases of the railway question aa subsidies, overcapitalisation and rates. Speaking Ant of his plana to build a line (rom Vancouver to Winnipeg Mr. Hill said: "As you of course know, wo have bought our terminals right into the heart ot the city ot Winnipeg, and we shall lose no time ln getting our connecting line (rom the boundary Into the city constructed. It should* be. finished next fall. Then we are now pushing forward the grading on the branch lines from Gretna to Portage ta Prairie and (rom Bottineau via Boissevain and the Sourlg to Brandon, having secured terminals In both Brandon and Portage la Prairie." "And what about the main line?" "Yes, that ls important We have fully decided on that. As you know, we have a line ln British Columbia to Fernie, and we propose, without unnecessary delay, to push tbat line across the great western prairie until Winnipeg ts reached." "I suppose your route will be via Lethbridge and south of the C. P. R. main line?" "Not by any means," answered Mr. Hill emphatically, going over to a map o( western Canada which showed all the railway HneB. "We do not consider that (running his index finger across ttie territory south of the C. P. R. from Lethbridge to near Weyburn) very good land and we propose to cross the C. P. R. and run a line considerably north of it where the country Is A-l and where the local traffic Is sure to be heavy." "Where would you cross the C. P. R. —«t Medicine Hat " "Well, that we cannot say at present. That Is a detail which will have to be settled after the fullest Investigation of the country's resources." "Then you are not thinking Ot the most direct transcontinental route ln order to capture passenger traffic?" "No, we are not so much concerned In that as ln tapping a territory prolific ln agricultural resources." ' In the above connection Mr. Hill spoke ot the great coal deposits of th. Crow's Neat and the lumber resources of this province, remarking: "Tha two gnat needs of the settler ol your vast country are shelter and warmth. Providence made magnificent provision for both, If care is but taken to see that they are made available. The forests of British Columbia will fur- nhsh all the lumber necessary (or homes if this great resource ls husbanded, and the Crow's Nest possesses all the (uel necessary to keep the teeming millions ot the centuries to come, warm. But your people should see that both these prime necessaries are supplied to the masses at the lowest cost. For our part we shall do our best to help the settlers out wtth low rates for. lumber and coal." On the subject qf subsidies, over-cap- itallzatlon and rates, Mr. Hill said: "There will soon be an end to your subsidy policy. It is entirely unnecessary. With the country developed as tt ts railways should be built without costing the people a cent That is the policy we have followed In our country, and that it has paid handsomely 1 can easily prove. "We propose to build our Canadian system at -the lowest possible cost consistent with excellent work and thorough equipment (or, aa you must have gleaned [rom the tenor of my policy, 1 am a believer ln the best road bed, the lowest grades, the biggest engines and the largest capacity in rolling stock. "In Canada we do not propose to bond our roads (or a dollar. We shall Just Issue stock representing the actual cash outlay and as we have never figured on receiving more (rom the people than an average o( seven per osnt on our outlay you will see that the burden upon the people will be light Our policy will enable us to set a new pace ln the matter of rates, and I think you can mark It down that as a result of our advent Into your splendid territory an effective period will be put to the oonusing or subBldy system. I should scarcely think the public men would can to propose subsidies, and that companies would have the hardihood to ask them In (ace o( the facta."

Financial considerations will probably preclude Its consideration. The sum voted by the council on motion of alderman Annable for the purpose ot providing free shade trees was definitely limited to $2W. A similar amount would not go very (far towards the construction of boulevards. Mayor Olllett, when asked his opinion on the subject yesterday, said: ■ "Personally, while I approve of every Step towards beautifying the city and would like to see well kept boulevards on all residential streets, 1 think the city's present financial position makes It Impossible to consider the question, even of giving financial aid to hounehold*h-B tor tnat purpose.

(Rosaland Miner) In tbe ettort to depreciate the value of Hoesland's mineral resources, lt used to 'be a common expression in eastern Canada, tbat the people of Montreal and Toronto had lost ten million dollars in our mines. As a matter of lact, this expression was simply used to cover tbe "bad buys" which these people bad made of each other. If they exchanged ten million dollars with each other,, it was not in Rossland mines, but simply -represented an interchange of cash that passed from the pockets of the iMou- ifleal speculator to tbose of tbe Toronto vendor, and vice versa. The money did not -go into Rossland mines. Men were eager to get rich quickly, and purchased anything tbat was ottered, depending In a large measure on the ability of those in control to bear or bull their holdings. Many of the companies never got beyond tbe stage of incorporating tbe company and floating *^e stock, with little or no effort at development". The few Rossland properties which have been practically and systematically worked have proven themselves, and Rosaland is today able to offer to the Investor such values ln mining resources as are not ofteb encountered. We have passed that state * of speculation, and have reached the stage of development where properties are being -worked for the purpose of mining ore, and uot of manipulating stocks. Rossland. today Ib not receiving due credit ln the outside world. There exists too strong a remembrance of the alleged ten millions which changed hands In eastern Canada to the detriment of our mines. People .will continue to invest in unknown and untried ventures, simply because the inducements in print look glittering, and they are willing to take a chance. If tr*ue conditions were known, there Is not a mining camp in the United States or, Canada with more permanent, promising and profitable investments than Rossland offers In such mines as .the Le Roi, Le Rol Two, War Eagle and Centre Star. The la Rol keeps up its reputation as an ore producer, and never, probably, in its entire history has there been any more ore in sight than ai the present time. Strikes of Importance bave been made in the last few months on the several levels of the mine, and the output Is running up to over 12,000 tons a month. The monthly profit is so large that If the same ratio is kept up for the balance of the year, as for the past two months tbere will be a profit of about 1400,000 for the year's operations, and out of this substantial dividends can be paid. The Le Rol Two is in better shape than it has been since work was started upon It It has the longest continuous ore shoot, 1200 feet, ln tbe province, and the ore is of ane exceptionally high grade. It is making a substantial profit each month, and there is sufficient ore tn sight to pay dividends for at least three years, should no new shoots be found ln the interim. When manager Cronln took charge of the War Eagle and Centre Star, about a year ago, there was. approximately $26,000 worth of ore In sight in tlie nrst mentioned property, and $50,000 in the second. Today they show more ore than at any time In their history, and together with the St Eugene and Trail smelter, constitute one of the soundest and most promising industrial investments In Canada. In the lower levels of the Centre Star extensive bodies of rich ore have been encountered, while below the eighth level, the War Eagle is practically a virgin mine, with great ore bodies on each level. In fact, in these two properties, there are three ore shoots, for every one that Is being worked. The big companies are all prosecuting their development work with a harmony that haa permitted connections on the lower levelB that, materially aid in ventilation and safety. Nearly one thousand men are on tho payrolls of the companies cited, and when it is remembered that at the height of Rosaland'B prosperity, when a dozen other properties were under development, only about 1200 men were employed, it will be seen how actively the present companies are engaged In taking out ore. RAILWAY COMMISSION Its Scope Will Be Extended at Present Session of Parliament. The institution of a railway commission In Canada has been so thoroughly Justified that a bill is now before the federal parliament extending tbe scope of Ita powers. Judge Killam, the chairman of the commiss{on, has forwarded to Mr. Emmerson some suggestions for additions or changes in the act for the purpose of making the powers of the commission specific where they are now general. Suggestions coming from the chairman of the commission covering points where practice has discovered weaknesses cannot fail to be of the highest value. Development In this direction was to have been expected, and we may look for a steady strengthening and solidifying ot the commission's extravagant charges, if public regulation falls it will be time enough to resort to something more drastic. That appears to be the attitude, of parliament on both sides or ttie house to that class of questions. The working of the railway commission has -gone a great way towards fostering the belief that public regulation Is the best solution ln sight There ls fortunately no doubt as there is ln the United States, of the power of -parliament to enforce regulation.— Toronto Globe. BpJssBBJBBBP ttttt ._ dimple request li aad ought to have. Address— THI ALAMtTINI COMMNV, UMITfD wa-wmsaaaaw^^maapj^am powers. Among the powers which will undoubtedly be conferred on the commission In the new amendments will be that of regulating the tolls and operations of telephone companies. The ctrarges of telegraph and express companies may also be made subject to the control of the commission. Parliament seems Inclined m exhaust the possibilities of public regulation before thinking of the serious step which Is sometimes urged upon lt of nationalizing ths railways and telegraph and telephone lines of the country. It Is probably the part of wisdom to ascertain If It Is not possible to combine In the operation of these natural monopolies the excellency and econ- Iomy of private ownership and operation, with sufficient public oversight and control to save the patrons of the companies from partial, arbitrary, or INSURANCE INVESTIGATION Peculiar Methods ot Union Flre.and Lire Companies Exposed. Toronto, May 11.—How it is possible for insurance policy holders to be tn tbe hands of a group comprising the board ot directors who can alone direct the fate of their Investment, was made plain at the sessions of the dominion insurance commission hens. By the laws of the (National Agency company, the business end of the Union Life Insurance company and that of the Union Life were subjected to analysis by the investigation counsel and lt was found that the shareholders in the agency company, while nominally possessing the right to participate In tlie proceedings of a general meeting, In reality found themselves stripped of every right when it came to the meeting, unless,tbey had over come numerous restrictions flirst The directors who founded the companies created new laws, that no resolution could be ottered by shareholders unless notice of their Intention was given three months prior to the meeting, no proxies could be given within sixty days, and there could be no transfers of stock within ten days of the general meeting, if an obnoxious director, say one who represented the shareholders, came on the board the other directors had power to vote htm off immediately. Holnian Evans, president of the National Agency, and manager of the Union Life who was the chief witness, testified to purchasing stock in tbe Agency company at par, giving his note and after disposing of the stock at considerable advance, taking up his note. The Ontario government has heartily approved of tbe resolution passed ln tbe house of commons Inviting the king and queen to visit Canada. UNDERESTIMATE THE WEST. Regina, May 11.—-Hon. Mr. Motherwell, In discussing a resolution condemning professor Mavor, said tt must be remembered that others besides professor Mavor had made the mistake of underestimating the capabilities of western Canada. He believed that the full possibilities of this country were nbt yet known and predicted before long winter wheat would be grown in central Saskatchewan. Haultaln endorsed the remorks ot the previous speaker, pointing out that the wheat growing belt Is still betng extended every year and adding that he hoped before long professor Maver's report would have Its contradiction In the reaping of harvests far greater than the limit which he had placed upon the capabilities of the country. SCIATICA CURED AFTER TWBNTi* YEARS OF TORTURE. For more than twenty years M. J. B Massey, of 3323 Clinton street, Minneapolis, Minnesota, was tortured toy solatlca.

Washington, May 11.—The selsiire by . -anadtan cruisers of tile flshlng smacks Htayroau of Boston end Parlhla of Qlou- jceater, adds another to the many vex- latlous cases nt this kind regarding ■twhlch the suite department Is now pre- Sparing to negotiate directly with the ' ■British government, through ambassador Durand, upon his return to this country, from England. It is pointed out, however, that, from the press reports, these new oases appear to differ essentially from those of the Gloucester boats seised a month ago off the Newfoundland coast and brought Into 8t John. , While It is a debatable Question ae to whether the Newfoundland authorities were within their rights In arresting the Gloucester fishermen who were there under the terms of the treaty of UM, -granting them equal privileges with British subjects In the shore waters, no such claim in made by the state department here as to the waters of New Brunswick or Nova Scotia. North American nshsrmen have the right to trawl herein, with the consent of the authorities. It is conjectured that this case, however, may Involve a construction of the old aud long dispute*! "headland" claim and that the' American Ashing boats, while within, an Imaginary line drawn from headland to headland on ths Nova Scotia coast, near Cape North, were actually more than a marine league distant from the nearest shore and so were within their rights. Tbls ls a question to be determined by the court before which the captains ot these seised vessels will appear and these facta must he awaited by the state department before lt undertakes to make any representations In the case. PARISIAN BOMB THROWERS IParlB, May 11.—The Russian ambassador M.

The Pasha was Informed that any compromise suggestions were Quite Inadmissible and that nothing leas than an absolute- compliance with tbe British demands would prevent drastic action. The ambassador warned the minister that the tin*, waa running short and counselled him to be under no misapprehension ln regard to the determination of Great Britain to enforce the Turkish evacuation of Egyptian territory on the Sinai peninsula and a Joint delimitation of the frontier.

The very large amount of employment given ln con. nectlon with thla 10 mile .ectlon gave some color to the report which was current here that the C.P.R. had let.

No," added Mr. Hill, "there is nothing whatever to be alarmed at, and I am not losing sleep over any critic- Isms on that account. Wo know from what origin they spring. The people need our system and Judging by the nature ot the encouragement we are receiving on all hands the people want lt and are unanimously ln favor ot having tt" The fact that Nelson boasts a brickyard, which in the past haa given employment to a good many hands, seems lo have been lost sight ot In placing recent contracts for brick for Uie city power plant Other things being equal, lt Is sound policy to favor a home concern for the supply ot materials required lor civic works. Wm. Hancock, who conducts the Nelson brickyards, Is carrying on an Important Industry under somewhat difficult circumstances, the local demand for bricks being extremely limited. His product so far as quality la concerned, Is admittedly superior to anything of the kind produced elsewhere ln the Interior, and, of course, should 'c'.:h a higher price. It Is not always possible to place contracts with local Arms, but the nils should be that no orders should be sent abroad If by any arrangement a | local firm's product can be utilised. A brickyard giving steady employment to half a down or a dozen men, ls a factor In the Industrial lite ot the community that la not to be despised. The order for 160,000 bricks for the city power plant that has been placed with an out- Blde firm would have kept the local factory busy for sometime. As lt Ib Nelson's brickyard Is likely to be closed down ln the near future, or worked on a very smalt scale. The encouragement of home Inlus- trles and trading with local firms ate subjects to which the 20,000 club might profitably devote careful attention.

In advance THB HIU, INVASION In view of his prospective visit to Winnipeg, the Tribune of that city, sent a representative to St. Paul to interview J. J. Hill, the president ot the Oreat Northern railway.. The Tribune representative enjoyed a three hours' chat with the great railroad magnate and his report of the interview, as it appears ta the Tribune of May 8, makes one ot the most Interesting and instructive articles upon western railroad development that has ever appeared ln the public press. It would be impossible ln the course ot a brief article to deal at all adequately with the many topics pertinent to the subject that J. J. Hill touched upon, but some few extracts from the published Interview will serve to Indiate the true Inwardness ot the "HIU Invasion" and to give some Idea of J. J. Hill's views on such interesting phases of the railway question aa subsidies, overcapitalization and rates. Speaking first of his plans to build a line from Vancouver to Winnipeg Mr. Hill said: "As you of course know, we have bought our terminals right Into the heart of the city of Winnipeg, and we shall lose no time in getting our connecting line from the boundary into the city constructed. It shorn* be finished next fall. Then we are now pushing forward the grading on the branch lines from Gretna to Portage la Prairie and from Bottineau via Boissevsin and tbe Sourts to Brandon, having secured terminals In both Brandon and Portage la Prairie." "And what about the main line?" "Yes, that is Important We have fully decided on that. As you know, we have a line in British Columbia to Fernie, and we propose, without unnecessary delay, to push that line across the great western prairie until Winnipeg is reached." "I suppose your route will be via Lethbridge and south ot the C. P. R.' main line?" "Not by any means," answered Mr. Hill emphatically, going over to a map of western Canada which showed all the railway lines. "We do not consider that (running bis index linger across the territory south of the C. P. R. from lethbridge to near Weyburn) very good land and we propose to cross the C. P. R. and run a line considerably north ot it, where the country Is A-l and where the local traffic Is sure to be heavy." "Where would you cross the C. P. R. —at Medicine Hat " "Well, that we cannot say at present. That la a detail which will have to be settled after the fullest Investigation, of the country's resources." "Then you are not thinking of the most direct transcontinental route In order to capture passenger traffic ?" "No, we are not so much concerned in that as in tapping a territory prolific ln agricultural resources." ' In the above connection Mr. HIU spoke of tha great coal deposits of the Crow's Neat and the lumber resources of this province, remarking: "Tha two gnat needs ot the settler or your vast country are shelter and warmth. Providence made magnificent provision for both, if cure is but taken to see that they are made available. The forests of British Columbia will fur- njish all the lumber necessary for homes if this great resource is husbanded, and the Crow's Nest possesses all the fuel necessary to keep the teeming millions of the centuries to come, warm. But your people should see that hoth these prime necessaries are supplied to the masses at the lowest cost. Kor our part we shall do our best to help the settlers out with low rates for lumber and coal." On the subject qf subsidies, over-capitalization and rates Mr. Hill said: "There will soon be an end to your subsidy policy. It is entirely unnecessary. With the country developed as it Is railways should be built 'without costing the people a cent That ls the policy we have followed in our country, and that it has paid handsomely 1 can easily prove. "We propose to build our Canadian system at the lowest possible cost consistent wtth excellent work and thorough equipment, for, as you must have gleaned from the tenor of my policy, 1 am a believer tn the best road bed, the lowest grades, the biggest engines and the largest capacity In rolling stock. "ln Canada we do not propose to bond our roads for a dollar. We shall just issue stock representing the actual cash outlay and as we have never figured on receiving more from the people than an average of seven per cent on our outlay you will see that the burden upon the people will be light Our policy will enable us to set a new pace ln the matter of rates, and I think you can mark it down that as a result of our advent Into your splendid territory an effective period will be put to the bonuslng or subsidy system. I should scarcely think the public men would care to propose subsidies, and that companies would have the hardihood to ask them In face of tbe facta."

"We have gone pretty carefully Into estimates, and the most rational conclusion we have been able to reach Is that lt will cost In the neighborhood of thirty millions." Questioned as to the opposition developing in eastern Canada to his Invasion ot western Canada and with regard to the diversion of trade, Mr. Hill replied: "Why, there's absolutely nothing to' tt. We have no intention whatever ot Invading eastern Cauada, and under no circumstances can we divert trade, The tariff effectively prevents any diversion even If that were a possible aim.

Wltb further r-tmace to this "grub strike" The Dally News has received tne following communication from Phil Mclnnls, one of the St, Eugene miners, at present In town: Editor The Dally Newa—In your Usue this morning I read an account of'the grub strike at the Bt. Eugene mine, Moyie. As one of the committee, et miner., appointed' to interview James Cronln, l would like to make a' few corrections. In the nrst place, the Miners1 union ot Moyie had nothing whatever to do'with the recent grub strike at the Bt; Eugene, The men refused to be .tarved any longer and stmply walked out, tn the interview Mr. Cronln d'd not prom, is. a change on the 16th. He promised nothing dehntt.. He said: "W* will run tins to ault ourselves,'^ meaning by ~* of the constable at Moyie' yesterday for the arrest of O'Rourke, the boarding house boss, charging him with intimidating men by a display of firearms. He was going to make them eat the grub and eay they liked it, and produced a six-ahooter as a Persuader. It may be Interesting to know that this Ib Ihe third gun play made, within six months In the company's olllce, by Wm. O'Rourke. In conclusion I may say thnt the hungry miners of the St. Hugene will be very grateful for space olloted to these icorrec- (tlons and explanations In your paper. Yours respectfully, PHIL. MclNNIS. The Daily Newa endeavored to ascertain last night from.Moyie whether or not wm. O'Rourke had been arrested and the nature of the charge preferred against him, Ibut the only reply elicited was to the effect that' the story of the trouble at the St. Eugene had been exaggerated, SENATE REFORM. New York Comment on the Canadian tipper Chamber. New York, May 11.—The Sun says: "Canada is considering the question of senate reform. It may be said tn strict confidence, that a similar proposition has been made In this country with regard to a corresponding Institution.' There Is, however, a distinct difference between Canadian and American bodies. Few ever hear of the Canadian senate, while many think they hear only too much ot the American senate. Roosevelt would be a happier but a less busy man it ha could swap 'Aldrlch and those other fellows' for the Canadian organisation. The Canadian premier Is evidently not a candidate for admission to the noble order of "muck rakers." Canada's decision upon the matter will he Interesting If she adopts a system more nearly resembling our own. There appears to be no disposition whatever to elect the senate by popular vote."

I NO CITY BOULEVARDS MAYOR GILLETT THINKS COST IS PROHIBITIVE AT PRESENT ANOTHER PRACTICAL flUGOBSTlON- CLEAN STREETS CHEAP The suggestion that the city construct boulevards for all property owners who will undertake to look afteer them Is not likely to be .carried out during the present year. Financial considerations will probably preclude Its consideration. The sum voted by the council on motion of aider* man Annable for the purpose of providing free shade trees was definitely limited to (250. A similar amount would not go very ifar towards the construction of boulevards. Mayor Gillett, when asked his opinion on the subject yesterday, said; '-personally, while I approve of 'every Btep towards beautifying the city anu would like to sec well kept boulevards on all residential streets, J think the city's present financial position makes It impossible to consider the question, even of giving tlimtu-kil aid to householders for tnat punpoHR. But'*'I think I can safely nay 'that every other possible aid and encouragement Is being given and will be given. Instructions have been given to the police force and I 'believe they are being curried out efflBlently, to put an* end to the me* tiace to lawns and boulevards from straying cattle and .poultry. Those who will make boulevards for themselves may rest assured that their Improvement-- Will be protected-and preserved for them." A prominent citizen who was present and heard the mayor's remark, offered another suggestion for Improvement,* which has tho double merit of being easy of rulillmeni and routing nothing at til. He suld: "Every morning, if you walk along Baker street, as places of business arc being put In order for the day, you can see scraps ot paper and little piles or dust swept on to tho street from a mil* Jorltv of the stores und offices. It would require no expenditure and very mtle trouble for everyone to cease from ot- fendlng in that particular, and the diirer- Snce would certainly be marked. It can aot be denied that at present thc business streets of Nelson present a very untidy appearance, which Is due to nothing but carelessness and thoughtlessness on the part of the merchants und their employees.

MINES ARE IN FINE SHAPE ROSSLAND NOT RECEIVING DUS CREDIT FOR CONDITIONS NEARLY ONE THOUSAND MINERS ARiB AT WORK. (Rossland Miner) In the ettort to depreciate the value of Rossland's mineral resources, It used to 'be a common expression in eastern Canada, that the people of Montreal and Toronto had lost ten million dollars in our mines. As a matter of lact, this expression was simply used to cover the "had buys" which these people had made ot each other. If they exchanged leu million dollars with each other, lt was not in Rossland mines, but simply -represented an interchange of cash tnat passed from the pockets of the Mon- meal speculator to those of the Toronto vendor, and vice versa. The money did not go into Rossland mines. Men were eager to get rich quickly, and purchased anything that was uttered, depending in a large measure on the ability of those in control to hear or hull their holdings. Many of the companies never got beyond the stage of incorporating the company and floating %e stock, with little or no ettort at development?. The few Rossland properties which have been practically and systematically worked have proven themselves, and Rossland is today able to offer to the investor such values ln mining resources as are not often encountered.' We have passed that state of speculation, and have reached the stage of development where properties are being -worked for the purpose of mining ore, and not of manipulating stocks. Rossland. today is not receiving due credit in the outside world. There exists too strong a remembrance ol the alleged ten millions which changed hands in eastern Canada to the detriment of our mines. People .will continue to invest In unknown and untried ventures, simply because the inducements in print look 'glittering, and they are willing to take a chance. If true conditions were known, there Is not a mining camp in the United States or. Canada with more permanent, promising and profitable investments than Rossland offers In such mines as .the Le Roi, Le Rol Two, War Eagle and Centre Star. The la Roi keeps up its reputation as an ore producer, and never, probably, In Its entire history has there been any more ore in sight than ai the present time. Strikes of importance have been mode in the last few months on the several levels of the mine, and the output is running up to over 12.000 tons a month. Tho monthly profit is so large that If the same ratio is kept up for the ■balance of the year, as for tlie post two months there will be a profit of about $400,000 for the year's operations, and out of this substantial dividends can be paid. I The Le Roi Two is in better shape I than lt has heen since work was start-' ed upon it It has the longest continuous ore shoot, 1200 feet, in the province, and the ore ls of ane exceptionally high grade, it ls making a substantial profit each month, and there is sufficient ore ln sight to pay dividends for at least three years, should no new shoots Ite found in the interim. When manager Cronln took charge of the War Eagle and Centre Star, about a year ago, there wa§^ approximately $26,000 worth Of ore In sight in the flrst mentioned property, and $50,000 In the second. Today they «how more ore than at any time In their history, and together with the St. Eugene and Trail smelter, constitute one of the soundest and most promising industrial investments ln Canada, In the lower levels of the Centre Star extensive bodies of rich ore have been encountered, while below the I olghth level, the War Eagle is practl- 1 colly a virgin mine, with great ore bod- 1 les on each level. In fact, in these two ■I properties, there are three ore shoots, for every ojpe that is being worked. The big companies are all prosecuting their, development work with a harmony that haa permitted connections on the lower levels that materially aid in ventilation and safety. Nearly one thousand men are on the payrolls of the companies cited, and when it is remembered that at the height of Rossland's prosperity, when a dozen other properties were under development, only about 1200 men were employed, it will be seen how actively the present companies are engaged in taking out ore. RAILWAY COMMISSION extravagant charges. If public regulation fails It will be time enough to resort to something more drastic. That appears to be the attitude of parliament on both sides of ttie house to that class of questions. The working of the railway commission -has gone a great way towards fostering the belief that public regulation is the best solution ln sight. There is fortunately no doubt as there ls in the United States, of the power of -parliament to enforce regulation.— Toronto Globe. INSURANCE INVESTIGATION Peculiar Methods of Union Fire . and Life Companies Exposed. Toronto, May ll.—How it is possible for insurance policy holders to be in the hands of a group comprising tlie board of directors who can alone direct the fate of their investment, was made plain at the sessions of the dominion Insurance commission here. By the laws of the 'National Agency company, the business end of the Union Life Insurance company and that of the Union Life were subjected to analysis by the investigation counsel and It was found that the shareholders in the agency company, while nominally possessing the right to participate tn tlie proceedings of a general meeting, in reality found themselves stripped of every right when it came to the meeting, unless they had over come numerous restrictions first. The directors who founded the companies created new laws, that no resolution could be offered by shareholders unless notice of their Intention was given three months prior to tlie meeting, no proxies could be given within sixty days, and there could be no transfers of Btock within ten days of the general meeting, If an obnoxious director, say one who represented the shareholders, came ou the board the other directors had power to vote him off immediately. ■Holman Evans, president of the National Agency, and manager of the Union Life who was the chief witness, testified to purchasing stock tn the Agency company at par, giving his note and after disposing of the Btock at considerable advance, taking up his note. The Ontario government has heartily approved of the resolution passed in the house of commons Inviting the king and queen to visit Canada. UNDERESTIMATE THE WEST. Regina, May 11.—Hon. Mr. Mother- welt, In discussing a resolution condemning professor Mavor, Bald It must be remembered that others besides professor iMavor had made the mistake of underestimating the capabilities of western Canada. He believed that the full possibilities of this country were not yet known and predicted before long winter wheat would be grown In central Saskatchewan. Haultaln endorsed the remorks of the previous speaker, pointing out that the Wheat spwing belt is still being extended every year and adding that he hoped before long professor Maver's report would have Its contradiction In the reaping of harvests far greater than the limit which hty had placed upon the capabilities of the country.

Addreti— THI ALAMtTINK COMPANY, UMITID - MHIt, OUT. tep**ame*9zaaam_mwm_pe0m*^ a Its Scope Will Be Extended at Present Session of Parliament. The institution of a railway commission In Canada has been so thoroughly justified that a bill is now before the federal parliament extending the scope of Its powers. Judge Killam, the chairman of the commission, has forwarded to Mr. Emmerson some suggestions for additions or changes in the act for the purpose of making the powers of tihe commission specific where they are now general. Suggestions coming from the chairman of the commission covering points where practice has discovered weaknesses cannot fall to be of the highest value. Development in this direction was to have been expected, and we may look for a steady strengthening and solidifying of the commission's powers. 7!l -j Among the powers which will undoubtedly be conferred on the commission In the new amendments will be that of regulating the tolls and operations of telephone companies, The charges of telegraph and express companies may also lie made subject to ttie control of the commission. Parliament seems in- ,. cllned m exhaust the possibilities of I public regulation before thinking of the il serious step which is sometimes urged upon tt of nationalizing the railways and telegraph and telephone lines of the country. It Is probably the part of wisdom to ascertain If It Ib not possible to combine In the operation of thet» nat- ■ ural monopolies the excellency and economy of private ownership and operation, with sufficient public oversight and control to save the patrons of the ! companies from partial, arbitrary, or being made by the house committee on appropriations for the estimates for work on the Panama canal to carry on the work during the next fiscal year. Secretary Taft has evplalned that tt will he Impossible to submit detailed estimates until the'arrival here ot chief engineer Stevens, who ls now on his way from the Isthmus. The total to be asked for la said to aggregate $26,000,- 000.

Washington, May 11.—The seizure by Canadian cruisers ot the ashing smacks Xayman ot Boston and Parthla ot Gloucester, adds another to the many vexatious cases of this ltlnd regarding ,luu which the state department Is now pre- hesitatingly rejected paring to negotiate directly with the ! informed that any 6 British government, through ambassador Durand, upon his return to this country, from England. It Is pointed out, however, that, from the press reports, these new cases appear to differ essentially from those ot the Gloucester boats seized a month ago off the Newfoundland coast and brought into St John. 1 While It is a debatable question as to whether the Newfoundland autborl- I ties were within their rights ln arresting tbe Gloucester fishermen who were . there under the terms ot tbe treaty ot |191«, (granting them equal privileges with British subjects in the shore waters, no such claim tn made by the state department here as to the waters of New Brunswick or Nova Scotia. North American fisherman have the right to trawl herein, with the consent ot the authorities. It Is conjectured that this case, however, may involve a construction of I the old and long dispute*! "headland" I claim and that the i American Ashing boats, while within an imaginary line I drawn from headland to headland on tbe I Nova Scotia coast, near Cape North, were actually more than a marine league distant from tbe nearest shore and so were within their rights. This ls a question to be determined by the court before which the captains ot these seized vessels will appear aud these facts must be awaited by the state department before it undertakes to make any representations ln the case. PARISIAN.BOMS THROWERS Paris, May 11.—The Russian ambassador ot.

The children ln tbe publio schools met ln their respective schools, where the teachers addressed them on the meaning and Importance of the day. Then they were taken to the school yatds, public parks end other places, where they planted trees and flowers under the dlrecUon of their teachers. Thousands of trees were planted all over ths state, many of them by^ private cltlsens and olvlo societies. This is th* nrst time that the day waB observed generally ln all parts of the state and that exercises were held In all public and nearly all private schools. but the policy of marking tlmo while events are marching so rapidly really means retreat" The constitutional democrats, bow- ever, are in no wise dismayed at the prospect of having to continue the struggle. It Is already apparent that they Intend to nail the flag of a constitutional monarchy to the mast head but tlie.lt first efforts will be directed to forcing a general political amnesty from the unwilling csar. OBANBBOOK HAPPBNINOB Owners of Impounded Cattle are Wtttthy- Marysvllle Accident . (Special to The Dally News) Cranbrook, May U-In the daya prior to the Incorporation ot tho city, the cows ot Cranbrook roamed at their will and plundered as they pleased In front gardens ana 'back yards all over town. Their owners were not greatly concerned about tho tin- fortunate people who were kept awake nights with the clanking of the bells ot these privileged marauders, nor about the extent of their depredations. A city bylaw, recently passed, put an end lo the nulsanco out when the police proceeded to enrorci) the ordinance and impounded a few beasts, holding tliem at ransom In the city pound, a most violent milk pan storm arose, it raged round the table where the olty couu- oll gathered, nor did lt aeate until tho forenoon of yeBterday when it was deemed In effect, that the bylaw was law and tbat those who tell foul ot It should pay therefor. Strange to say the owners ot the errant stock seemed to consider the tart that their beasts were roped In by a colored man who recently forfeited hla liberty to the city, added, in some way, a kind ot Insult to their Injury. The net result ot the whole matter le that bylaw ls sustained and the city lt some -ISO richer from pound fees, It also Illustrates thut the law Is all right aa it Is applied against tne other fellow. Jim Praser, the driver of the Windermere stage ls authority for the statement tnat the 10 miles of grading from Golden south on the Kootenay Central railway Is finished, or practically finished. He .ilso says the men have been paid oft und the large number of teams engaged on the work aro being shipped back to Alberta. The very large amount of employment given in connection with this 10 mile section gave some color to the report which wus current hero that the C.P.R. had let. 'or was about to let. another contract for 40 miles additional, but the Information of Mr. Fraser proves that nothing of tho sort Is contemplated, at present at all events. Louis Santonl. un employee of the Murys- vllle smelter, mot with a aevere accident while engaged with another man ln replacing a derailed C.P.R. car. Aa far as can be gathered from the injured man* who speaks indifferent English, he and his companion were getting the cur back on the track when something slipped and caught him, breaking both the bones or hla leg close below the knee. The man was brought Into the St. Eugene hospital today in charge of Dr. Bishop. The old and most Inconvenient triweekl> train service to Marysvllie and Klmberley has been discontinued. In the future the trains will run dally, leaving Cranbrook at 7'» a.m. and being Mined to arrive back at 3:15 p.m. Most commendably good time is being maintained ao tar.
