Today, as yesterday and on Saturday, brilliant weather greatly aided in car- . rylng out the official program and as- tilsted the duke In getting through possibly one of the busiest days cd tho tour. At 11:40 the duke attended the collegiate grounds, where school children of all denominations were as- rembled, and received an enthusiastic welcome. For somo time prior to the time arranged Scnrth street wns filled with what might be described as ri Lilliputian army which, when drawn up around tho raised platform, presented an animated scene, Numbers of people took the opportunity of witnessing the proceedings and the royal party, accompan led by an escort of Slxtecenth "Light Horse, was greeted, with the singing of patriotic songs. Nearly all the available space was occupied, thero being nearly 3,000 school children and students present representing the public, separate nnd convent schools, normal school and collegiate students and staffs of each institution.

The royal party, on arrival, were preceded into the building by Bishop Harding Canon Hill and other church dignitaries, where, following a short religious ceremony the cornerstone of the institution was duly laid. But another function had yet to be carried out, and leaving the chapel, the party proceeded to a covered platform where the cornerstone of tho Girl's Hostel had been placed for the ceremony. The enclosure lined with Boy scouls was soon filled by members of the choir and when Bishop Harding had conducted a brief service suitable to tho occasion, his royal highness declared the stono laid in tho following words: "In the faith of Jrsus Christ wo lay this headstone In the foundation, in the name of the Father, the Son nnd tho Holy Ghout; lhat this place may ho set opart for the shelter and uplifting of our girlhood, to the honor of our Lord Jesus Christ.

VANCOUVER, Oct. 14.—Sir Neville Lyttleton, formerly commander of the British forces in Ireland, now retired, who has been spending the past week on the coast, left today for tho east. On Saturday night he was entertained at a dinner given by the officers of the Seventy-second Scotch Highlanders. In an interesting address he recalled his connection with the Canadian military as far back as I860 when as a young officer, he helped to repel tho Fenian invasion, A morning paper made him say In effect that he regarded war as not remote and that should it occur, he would be glad to command the Canadian forces. "Sir Ne\*Hlo made no such statement," said Lieut. Col: R. G. Edwards T.ockie, of tho Seventy-second, today. Col. Leckle added that the only thing that might be construed to mean that war was a possibility in the future, was that Canada should bo prepared, hut as this warning has been issued by every soldier of note who has visited Canada in the past few years, there is nothing to lend people to think that trouble was any nearer now than when other military authorities had made lhe statement. Police Lieutenant Was Ready To Murder (By Daily News Leased Wire.) NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—"Bald Jack" Rose's story of how Police Lieut. Becker participated in the murder of Herman Rosenthal was corroborated on the witness stand today by Brldgle Webber and Harry Vallon, self-confessed accomplices. Webber went further. He swore that the police lieutenant had told hfm that on tho night of the murder he would have killed R senthal himself if he hnd seen him. Becker had told him, Webber said, that he had slowed down his automobiU' while passing the hotel Cadillac on Broadway, in case Rosenthal might he loitering there. "'If I had seen him, I would have backed him up against tho wall and shot him,' Becker said," said Weber. Roee'a testimony that Becker had demanded that Rosenthal be "croaked" that he had given the gun men as-- surances .of protection and that he had said that he would havo lilted to cut Rosenthal's tongue out and hang Jt up as a warning tn future squealers, was corroborated by Webber almost word for word, Vallon supported Webber like an echo. The similarity of their Btorles to that of Rose prompted John W. Hart, attorney for Becker, to ask "Vallon how many times he rehearsed the story. "Never," said Vallon. Both witnesses told their story coolly and could not be shaken* on cross-examination. Both said they had been promised protection but not "if they would testify ngalnBt Becker." "I was promised protection It I would tell the truth," each Insisted: Webber adding: " and if I didn't fire one of the shots that killed Rosenthal " Attorney Mclntyre, Becker's chief counsel, tried vainly to get them to admit that they had a motive of their own for doing away with Rosenthal but each stuck to his story thqt they hnd taken part in tho murder at Becker's behest. Supreme Court at Ottawa Hears Appeal, INTENTION OF CUSTOMS TARIFF Appellants Claim Free Admission - Lumbermen Contend for Duty, (By Dally News Leased Wire.) OTTAWA, Oct. 14.—In the supreme court today, arguments were head in the Important case of tho Foss Lumber company versus the King and the British Columbia Lumber & Shlnglo Manufacturing company. The question at issue is the construction ot customs tariff item number 504, granting free importation of "planks, boards and othor lumber of wood sawn, split or cut and dressed on one side only, but not further manufactured." Tho next tariff Items, number 505 and 508, Impose a duty on similar lumber "planed or dressed on one or both sides when tho ends thereof are jointed or tongucd or grooved" and on manufactures of wood not otherwise provided for. It is contended by tho appellants lhat they are entitled to free entry of planks, etc., dressed on one side only and also reduced by sawing into ia uniform dimension and commonly known as "sized lumber." In tho exchequer court It was held that "sized lumber" was "further manufactured," so as to fit it for a variety of purposes in addition to the ordinary uses of the lumber merely dressed on one side and consequently was dutiable. This view is upheld by the British Columbia Lumber & Shingle company, on behalf of Canadian manufacturers.'' ■ ' ■ Trnvers Lewis, K.C., for the crown, In a brief statement, said that ns both of the appellant companies and tho tho British Columbia lumbermen were represented, the crown would no noth - ing more than submit the case. Mr. Lewis' statement was as follows: "Like the trial In the exchequer court, tho intcrvenants, the British Columbia Shingle & Lumber Maunfacturing company, have obtained an order permitting their formal Intervention in tho present appeal and tho contentions of the appellant company and tho Inlervenants accordingly would be heard by the court. It, therefore, becomes unnecessary for tin1 crown to do more than to submit tho question In controversy to the court and allow tho appellant company and the fntorvenants, as being more directly Interested, to bo heard, each on their own behalf." W. D. Hogg, counsel for tho Foss Lumber company of Winnipeg, said tho contention of tho lumber manufacturers was that bocnuso lumber has been reduced to uniform dimensions this constitutes "further manufacture" an that as a consequonee, the lumber is dutiable. On the other hand, it was contended that the lumber exhibits produced have been dressed on one side only nnd no duty should be collected. Mi. Hogg laid some stress on the fitct that all the witnesses examined In the lower court, had agreed that whatover process of manufacture the lumber should bo submitted to. It had been dressed with a plane on one sldo only. The judge in tho lower court, Mr| Hogg said, took some cognizance of tlie uses to which the lumber In question Is put. He did not think this should enter Into the matter at all, the question being rather one of a strict interpretation of tho tariff. Mr. Hogg, in reply to questions put by the Court, admitted that there had been a change In the process of manufacture but that this should not make any difference in the application of tho customs law. Tho intention of the act It to give to the western settlers this class of lumber duty free in order to facllitato the construction of their buildings. It does not matter, he contended, how many sawing processes the lumber may go through, so long as it Is planod on one sldo only. There wns nothing In the tariff which says that this lumber In order to be admitted duty free, must be sawn only once. He expressed the view- that the exchequer court In giving judgement had gone outside tho limits of clause 504 of the customs act. Thi1!, he said, should not have been done. This tariff should he npplled literally. Eugono Lafleur, counsel for tho British Columbia lumbermen, in support of the judgement of tho court below said thnt tho exhibits showed undoubted evidence of further manufacture. Tho uniform edging done could not be done by tho ordinary sawmill equipment. The edging done in a saw mill is a rough process nnd would not meet the requirements of purchasers of tho lumber in question. Tho output of nn ordinary sawmill would not have tho straight edge required by the buyers. Mr. Lnfleur quoted evidence given in tho court bolow in support of this contention, the evidence of M. Mathleu, a British Columbia lumber exporter. It had been admitted In the course of the trial, ho said, that thero was no such thing ns a sawmill with • planing equipment such as Is required In the manufacture of this class of lumber. The argument was not concluded when court adjourned. General the Hon. Sir Neville Gerald Lyttleton, formerly commander in chief of the forces in Ireland who left Vancouver yesterday for the east and who advises Canadians to be prepared. To Sell Hundred Dollar Bonds to Small Investors DR. ARTHUR ASKS FOR HIGHER SALARY Application Filed—To Build Houston Memorial Now, Get Money Later "Baby"' debenture:?, eneh of -$100 do- nominutioo nnd bearing Interest at 5 per cent will be issued by the city of Nelson this your, if a suggestion made by Mayor Annable and favorably received by the council last night'Is carried into effect. The denomination of city debentures in the past has been $1000 and consequently it has been necessary to dispose. of the Issues in largo blocks to outside firms of bond buyers. Mayor Annable believes that the "baby" debentures would attract small local investors who would rather put their money into city bonds, which he considers would be easily negotiable, and secure 5 per cent than make savings in bank deposits and draw only 4 per cent. Probably the first Issne of tlie small denomination bonds will be foi local improvement work. Each will be a 10-year debenture with the Interest payable half, yearly. A suggestion along these lines was made before the municipal commission at its sessions hero recently by J, W. Holmes. Wants to Build Memorial. Although tho John Houston memorial fund at present amounts to only about $000, Sbat'kleton & Simpson have accepted the contract for the work of erecting the drinking fountain, proposed to be located at the corner of Ward and Vernon streets, adjoining the courthouse, at a figure of, $2100. W. Sbackleton last night asked tho council for permission to uso the street for thp purpose and declared that ho was willing to "lake chances" on getting the balance of the money ,the committee having given an undertaking to do all in Its power to collect tho additional sum required. Aid. Walloy asked Mr. Shackloton why tho construction of the memor ial was not deferred until a sufficient sum was collected and received the reply that the work had already been deferred for two years and that It was thought that subscriptions would come in more readily if the public saw that something was being done. It was proposed to complete the me morial with the exception of the lighting and plumbing for which figures had not heen seemed, he said. Aid. Gleazer- So you're taking chances on getting paid.

MILWAUKEE, Wis., Oct. 14.—CoL Theodore Roosevelt was shot an I slightly wounded today as he wai leaving the Gilpatriek hotel for the Auditorium to make a speech. The wound was superficial and the colonel went onto the Auditorium and began his speech after he had soon his assailant arrested and taken to the police station. The man was seized and held until a policeman came up. A mob surged around the prisoner, who apparently is mentally upset on the subject of Roosevelt running for another term as president. The man, who Is small of stature, admitted firing the shot and said that "any man looking for a third term ought to bo shot." In notes found in the man's pockets at the police station wero statements that tho man had been visited in a dream by tho spirit of William Mi Kinley who had said, indicating Col. Roosevelt: "This Is my murderer; avenge my death." Col; Roosevelt's injury is not serious. The colonel felt no pain at the time tho shot was fired and' was not aware that he was shot until he was on the way to the Auditorium, attention was then called to a hole in his overcoat and he found that his shirt was soaked with blood. A sir perfic-ial examination was made when he reached the Auditorium and throe physicians agreed that he was in no Immediate' danger. Saved by Speech. Col. Roosevelt's life probably was saved by a manuscript of tho speech which bo delivered tonight. The bullet struck tho manuscript which retarded its force as It passed through the flesh. His assailant was prevented from firing a second shot by Albert H. Martin, one of Col. Roosevelt's two secretaries. Col, Roosevelt had just stopped into an automobile when the would-be assassin pushed his way through the crowd in the street and fired. Martin, who was standing in the car with the colonel, leaped on to the man's shoulder*; and bore him to the ground. Captain A. O. Girard, of Milwaukee, who was on the front -seat Jumped almost at the same time and In an instant the man was overpowered and disarmed. A wild cry of "Lynch him," went up. Col. Roosevelt spoke to the people and told them to spare the man, Who then was taken into the hotel and held there until he was removed to tho police station. Speak or Die. In spito of the entreaties of the physicians, Cel. Roosevelt insisted on delivering his address. "I will make this speech or die; one or the other." he said. Henry K. Cochems, one of the Wisconsin progressive leaders, told tho groat crowd whicli bail assembled In tho Auditorium that Col. Roosevelt hud been shot and asked the people lo bo calm. The crowd was thrown almost into a panic by the announcement, but Col. Roosevelt calmed them by rising and assuring them that he was not badly hurt. Then he began his speech. Several times lie seemed to be growing weaker and members of his party rose to help him. He motioned them to sit down. "Let me alone. I'm all right," he said. In Front of Hotel. Tho shooting took place in the street in front of the hotel Gilpatriek. Col. Roosevelt reached Milwaukee shortly after 5 o'clock and making his way through tho crowds whicli had gathered at the station, entered an automobile and was driven to tho hotel. He took dinner In a private dining room on tho main floor with the members of the parly on ins private car. After dinner, Col, Roosevelt went to his room on tlie second floor of tho hotel and shortly before 8 o'clock ho started for the'Auditorium. His automobile stood in front of the door and about It was a big crowd waiting to catch a glimpse of tho colonel as he started off. With tho colonel were Philip Roosevelt, a young cousin; Mr. Martin and Captain Girard. Tho crowd pressed closely about the colonel's car and gave a cheer as he appeared. As the party approached tiie automobile, Col. Roosevelt's companions stood aside as he stepped Into the car. Mr. Martin entered directly behind him and sat on the further sldo of the car. Col. Roosevelt stood up. waving his hat in answer to the cheers of the crowd. Tho assassin was standing in the crowd a foot from tho automobile Ho pushed his way to the side of the car nnd, raising his gun, fired. Leaps on Assassin. Martin caught tlie flash and leaped over the car a second after the- bullet sped on Us way. Col. Roosevelt barely moved as the shot was fired. Beforo the crowd know what had happened, Martin ,who Is a six footer, and a former football player, had landed squarely on the assassin's shoulders und had borne him to the ground. He threw his right arm about the man's neck with a death grip and with his left arm seized the hand that held tbe revolver. In another second he had disarmed him. Roosevelt Cool. Col. Roosevelt stood calmly looking on as though nothing had happened. Martin picked the man up as though ho was a child. "Hero he is," said Martin. "Look at him, Colonel." All this happened within a few seconds and Col. Roosevelt stood gazing rather curiously at the man who had attempted his life before the stunned crowd realized what was going on. Then a howl of rage wont up. "Lynch him! kill him!" cried a hundred men. Don't Hurt Him. The crowd pressed In on them and Martin nnd Captain Girard who had followed Martin over tho side of the car, were caught with their prisoner in the midst of a struggling throng of maddened men. It seemed for the moment that he would he torn to pieces by the infuriated men and it was Col. Roosevelt himself who intervened on his behalf. He raised his hand mid motioned to the crowd to fall back. "Stop, stop." ho cried. "Stand back; don't hurt him." The mon In the crowd at first were not disposed to heed his words but at length fell back and permitted Martin and Captain Girard to carry the man into the hotel. After a short struggle tho assassin gave up and was carried without resistance out of reach of ihe crowd. Missed Me That Time. "Are you hurt, Colonel?" a hundred voices called out. "Oh, no," he replied, wilh a smile. "Missed mo that tlmo. I'm not hurt a bit." "I think we had bettor bo going on." he said to the other members of his party, "or we will be late."

(By Dally News Leased Wire.) NANAIMO, Ii. C, Dot. 14.—Tho min ers of Nanaimo will not join with tlie other miners at Cumberland and Extension mines in a sympathetic strike. This was formally decided upon yesterday at a mass meeting of the miners. Tho proposal that the Nunaimo men should join in a sympathetic strike was voted down by a large majority. Many of the Nanaimo men expressed the opinion at yesterday's meeting that the action of..tho men at the Cumberland and Extension mines in going on strike yesterday was ill-advised. Tho action of the Nanaimo men in declining to join the strike and remaining at work will prevent a complete tieup of the coal mining output and considerably relieves the fuel outlook for the winter.

LONDON, Oct. 14.—An actual rupture of diplomatic relations or a dec- laraion of war by Bulgaria, Servia, Greece or Turkey, Is still lacking, but ft is believed that efforts of the powers to maintain peace aro completely exhausted and that the diplomatic notes passing aro merely formalities.

The main body of the army is in be landed between Enos and Gallpolls, supported by tho light ships of lhe fleet, which will threaten the entrance to tho Dardanelles, while the heavier vessels and a force of marines assail Salonlkl. By thus car- rylrg the resumption of the war Into European Turkey, Italy hopes fo anticipate Austria's designs and make common cause with the Balkan states in "the holy crusade." Europe Amazed. (By Dailv nws Leased Wire.) PARIS, Oct. 14.—Europe Is amazed at Turkey's failure to accept the Italian peace terms at this critical moment and Is also worried bocouso In Italy's participation in the war there Is danger of drawing in the other powers, Tho situation was well summed up by M, Juaros, the French Socialist leader, in an Interview. He said: "Tho danger is overwhelming. The mere fact of the bitterness of tiie fight will multiply the temptations of Russia and Austria to intervene. In addition to the pretexts for intervention which exist already, /Sorvian statos- ment announce that the Servians in the Sanjak aro ready to rebel if thereby they can shake off tho Turkish yoke. This would be done in the name of a greater Servia, and there we have the casus belli laid down by Austria. "On the other hand, wc hear that Russian volunteers arc hastening to join the Balkans. Thus Russia penetrates llio Balkans. In the development of tbe crisis not a single minute can pass which does not create between Russia and Austria occasions for conflict. Bulgaria Presents Note. (By Dally Newe Leased Wire.) LONDON, Aug. L—Bulgaria present: ed a note to Turkey last night and a second note to Austria and Russia in behalf of the Balkan states. While the declaration is described in some quarters as an ultimatum, no time limit is imposed for the reply from Turkey, and In some quarters there Is a disposition to think this not only leaves the door still open for peace, but also that It Is an Indication that the Balkan league Is far from being so ready to proceed to tho last extremity of war as has been generally supposed. An eminent financier expressed the opinion that Bulgaria had been bluffing, but at the same time It was stated .that lhe bluff had been carried so far that it would be difficult to close the game without bloodshed. According to a dispatch to the Times from Sofia, the note presented to Turkey says that notwithstanding tho promise of the great powers to take ia hand the realization of tho reforms In European Turkey, the governments of the allied states feel bound to address themselves directly to the sublime porte and declare that only radical reforms sincerely and Integrally applied can improve tho miserable condition of the Christian population of European Turkey, guarantee order and tranquility iiv-that country and assure' durable peace hetweon Turkey and the Balkan states. The three states, regretting that Montenegro cannot join them, owing to the recent event, Invite Turkey to apply the reforms indicated In article XXIII of the Berlin treaty, on the basis qf the principle of nationality, with administrative autonomy of the provinces, Bulgarian or Swiss governors, elective assemblies, their own gendarme and militia and free education. The reforms to be applied by a council composed of an equal number of Chris= Bans and Moslems, under the supervision of ambassadors of the states, at Constantinople. The note finally demands an understanding on tho part of the porte to execute the reforms within six months and to recall tho order for mobilisation. With reference to Bulgaria's answer to Austria and Russia, who acted for the powers, tho Sofia correspondent says: "In it the three governments express their gratitude at the interest shown by the great powers In the condition of the populations of European Turkey and tnke cciifiilzance of their promise to undertake the realization of lhe reforms in administration on tho of article XXIII of the Berlin ity. "After so many promises by Turkey and recorded in international documents, it would be cruel lo theso populations not to endeavor to obtain more radical nnd definite reforms in order lo ameliorate their condition. "The three states, therefore, have addressed themselves lo Turkey, indicating tho general nature of these reforms and the necessity of guarantees of their application. Should lhe Turkish government act as appointed order and tranquility will he established in the ottoman dominions and durable peace? will be assured between Turkey and the Balkan states, toward which Turkey has too often assumed an arbitrary and provocative attitude." SHOULD MILL WHEAT AT VANCOUVER Member of Grain Commission Will Pass Through Nelson—Dampness In Prairie Grain. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) VANCOUVER, B. C, Oct. 14.—If. S. Ullibs, member of the Grain commission of Canada, who has been touring the west, left for his home city, Bort Arthur, today, via tho southern Kootenay routo. Speaking of the grain situation, Mr. Glhbs said: "The Grain commission uf Canada received representations that tiie Dominion government should have a grain elevator In Vancouver. The commissioners have informally considered the matter but have scarcely mado up their minds. We do, however, feel that tho future will justify an elevator In Vancouver of. say, 750,000 bushels capacity. "One of the chief objections to shipping grain via Vancouver and the Panama canal Is tho moisture hi the wheat from the prairie provinces, In the case of Oi'egon and California the grain has only 6 or 7 per cent moisture, while the grain from the prairies contains from II to 13 per cent. It strikes me that the proper thing for Vancouver to do Is to encourage the milling of grain here. Thu amount of moisture would not make much difference provided the grain was ground Into flour. The mlllB could dry the product ho that tho flour could carry through very hot climates,'* Daily News want ads 1 cent a word. ROOSEVELT SHOT BY MADMAN (Continued from page one.) Hooscvclt . entertained tho slightest notion that the coionei had been shot, lie felt no shock or pain at the time and it was assumed, that tbe bullet went wild. As soon as Col. Roosevelt had assured himself that the assassin was safe in the hands of the police, ho gave orders to drive on to the Auditorium. They had driven hardly one of tho four blocks from the hotel to tiie Auditorium, when John McGrath, formerly a hockey player in Montreal, who is now ono of Col. Roosevelt's secretaries, uttered a sharp exclamation and pointed to the colonel's breast. "Look .colonel," he said. "there is a hole In your overcoat." Col. Roosevelt looked down, saw tho hole, then unbottoncd the big brown army coat which he was wearing and thrust his hand beneath It. When he withdrew it, his fingers were stained with blood. Col. Roosevelt was not at all dismayed by his discovery. "It looks as though I had been hit," ho said, "but 1 don't think it is anything serious." Would Not Return. Dr. Scurry Terrell of Dallas, Texas, entered the automobile just before 11 started off, insisted that the colonel return to the hotel. Ho would not, and the car was driven on the Auditorium. As soon as they reached the building Col. Roosevelt was taken Into a dressing room. Dr. Terrell, with the help of Dr. John Stratton, of Milwaukee, and Dr. S. S. Soronson, of Racine, Wis., who wero in the audience and came to the dressing room on a call from the platform, made a superficial examination. They agreed that it was Impossible to hazard a guess as to the extent of the colonel's wound. Despite the protests of his physicians, the colonel strode out of the dressing room and on to the stage. A large crowd packed Into the building and cheered loudly as he entered, and without a word to indicate what had happened he went to his scat. For several minutes the crowd, no man of whom suspected that the colonel bore a bullet in his body, kept up its cheering. Then Mr. Cochems stepped to tho front of the platform and held up his hands. , There was something in his manner which bad Its effect upnn tho crowd and the cheering died suddenly away. "I have sometning to tell you," mi id Mr. Cochems, "and I hope you will receive the news with calmness." His voice shook as he spoke and a deathlike stillness settled over the throng. "Col. Roosevelt has been shot; he Is wounded." He spoke In a low tone but such was the stillness that everyone heard him A cry of astonishment and horror went up from the crowd which was thrown into confusion In an Instant. Mr. Cochems turned and looked Inquiringly at Col. Roosevelt "Toll us. are you hurt?" Men and women, shouted wildly. Some of thorn rose from their seats and rushed forward to look moro closely at the colonel. Bullet in Breast. Col, Roosevelt rose and walked to the edge of the platform to quiet the crojvd. He raised his hand and Instantly there was a silence. "It's true," ho said, then slowly he unbottoned his coat and placed his hand on his breast. Those in front of the crowd could catch a sight of the bloodstained garments. "I'm going to ask you to bo very quiet," said the colonel, "and please excuse mo from making you a very long spooch. I'll do the best I can, bub you see, there Is a bullet In my breast. But It's nothing. I'm not hurt badly." A sigh of relief wont up from the crowd and then an outburst of tumultous applause. Thoroughly assured by the colonel's action that ho was in no serious danger, the people settled back ioto their scats to hoar the, speech. Col. Roosevelt began to speak In a firm voice somewhat lower than its usual tone and except that his characteristic gestures wero less emphatic than usual, thero was nothing about the man to indicate his condition. After he had been sneaking a few minutes, however, his voice sank somewhat and he seemed to stand rather unsteady. Dr. Terrell and Col. Lyon stepped up to him and the doctor Insisted that he stop. "I am going to finish this speech," said the colonel emphatically. "I am all right; let me alone." Talked For Hour. Dr. Terrell and Col. Lyon sat down again. The colonel continued bis speech evidently with Increasing effort, but ho succeeded in making himself heard and talked for more than an hour. Then he was rushed to his automobile and flashed through the streets to an emergency hospital. The operating room had been placed In readiness to receive the colonel and six of the leading surgeons of Milwaukee were awaiting his arrival. Col. Roosevelt was iinrlnssed and placed on tho operating table, although ho insisted thnt he was not badly hurl and that the doctors were taking it too seriously. Bullet Of Large Size. An examination of the wound showed thnt It had been made by a bullet of FOR MAKING SOAR SOFTENING WATER,! REMOVING PAINT, DISINFECTING SINKS.! CLOSETS,DRAINS,ETC. SOLD EVERYWHERE * . REFUSE SUBSTITUTES large sine. It entered the fleshy part of the. rijdit breast, half way between the collarbone and the lower ribs. The physicians found that they know no moro after their examination than before as to the location of tho bullet, and it was decided to send for an X-ray inachinu to determine what depth the bullet had penetrated. While be was waiting for the X-ray machine Col. Roosevelt sat up on the operating table and talked politics and joked with the physicians. Assailant Examined. In tbe meantime, iiidden away In an inner room in tho police station, Col. Roosevelt's assailant was being submitted to a rigid cxumlnntlon. lie refused stubbornly to give an account of himself and would say nothing except: "I will tell you tomorrow." After a long siege the police forced from him tiie statement that he wns John Sehrank, of 210 'East Tenth street, New York. Clippings found in his pocket b showed that lie examined Mr. Roosevelt's itinerary carefully with tne evident intention of selecting the place at which he might aeeomul'sli what he bad in mind. It was said at the Gilpatriek hotel that while the colonel was at dinner a short, dark man. about 3ft years of age, attempted to gain admission to the dining room, being turned away. Thoso who saw him said he bore no resemblance to Sehrank, From this circumstance the report gained that two men were engaged In tiie attempt to take Col. Roosevelt's life. The police were unable to gain any evidence to bear out this theory. A written proclamation in the clothing of the man who did tiie shooting reads: Avonge My Death. "Sept. 15, 191*3—In n dream I saw President McKlnley set up In attire in whom I recognized Theodore Hooscvclt. The president said: 'This is my murderer; avenge my death.' "Sept. 21. 1312, 1:30 a.m.—While writing a poem, someone tapped me on the shoulder and said: 'Let not a murderei take the presidential chair. Avenge my death.' "I could plainly see Mr. McKlnley's features. "Before Hie Almtghtv Cod, I swear the above writing Is nothing but the truth." Another note found In the .man's pocket reads: Third Term Tradition. "So long as Japan could rlso to the greatest power of the world, despite her surviving a tradition more than 2,000 years old, as Gen. Nogl so nobly demonstrated, it Is thu duty of the United States of America to uphold tho ■ third term tradition. Let overy third termer be regarded as a traitor to the American cause. Lot it bo lhe right and duty of every citken to forcibly remove a third termer. Never let a third tenner appear on the official ballot. . "I am willing to die for niy country, God has called me to be his Instrument; so help me God. (Signed) Innocent Guilty." (Written In German) 'A strong tower Is our God." Wound Not Dangerous. „ The X-ray of Col. Roosevelt's wound shows that the bullet lodged In chest wall and did not penetrate tho lungs. Tho wound Is not considered dangerous. Col. Roosevelt left the hospital at lt:2ii p.m. Ho was able to walk unassisted. "I am feeling fine," he said. NAVAL AIRSHIP CARRIES TWENTY-ONE PASSENGERS (By Daily News Leased Wire.)

PAGE THREE Latest News of Sporting Events Hot From the Wire I Sixth Game To Giants- Score Now Two To Three (By Dally News Leased Wire.) NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—Fighting in the last trench, the New York Nationals repulsed the on-rushing Boston Americans today and sent them back ; to defeat by a score of 5-2 in the sixth game of the world series- A victory for the Red Sox would have carried with it the title of the world's champions*- of 1912 and when "Rube" Marquard walked off the Polo grounds this afternoon with his second win over Boston, tucked away in the •leeve of his pitching arm, New York took hope that the Giants might be able to capture two more games from their adversaries and bring the premier title in baseball to this city. The world series now stands, Boston three games won; New York, two games won, one'contest a tie. Ended in Second. New York, however, did not win all the victories today. On the green iurf just hack of first hase while the 30,- 000 spectators were leaving the grounds, Managers Stahl and MeGraw tossed a coin to determine In which city the deciding game should he played in tho event New York won In Boston tomorrow. Slahl won lhe toss and oil tho remaining games will be played on Boston's field. President Taft, on the yacht Mayflower, kept In touch with the game hy wireless while reviewing the battleships in the Hudson river. The inning scores were also wigwagged from ship to ship all along the lino so that every man aboard oould know tho proceedings of tho game came early and when the smoke game came early an dwhen the smoke of battle floated away at tho end of the second Inning, the score stood G-2 In favor of New York and thereafter neither side could add a tally in the face of the Superb twirling of the two lefthanders, Marquard and Collins. The Boston southpaw had heen called to the firing line after the Giants had touched off an explosion of hits off Buck O'Brien's moist ball. The fusllade of hits came with such suddenness thnt for the first time In the series the Boston Inflolders wore unable to meet the attack of the New Yorkers. Two crisp doubles, four singles, a balk by O'Brien and a dou- ' ble steal nettdd NfeW York five runs. \ Oddly enougA. .'the'.four singles ga**- nered by tho Giants were slow Infield rollers which on tho sosgy diamond mode them difficult to handle. Boston made Its tallies on Mnrquard's error of Gardner's grounder, a hit by Stahl nnd a two-bagger by Engol, who batted for O'Brien, Rube Marquard curved them over low nnd then sent up his fatit ones around the necks nf tho Boston batters. One of the results of Marquard's, service was a great day for tho Giant outfielders. The trio of Gardner. Murray, Snodgrass and Devore, covered acres of ground and gobbled no less than 15 balls. Of these "Rod" Murray in right field, whose fiery locks seemed to glow as a beacon to tho Boston bots- men so1 many drives did they send his way, captured seven, while Snodgrass took six and Devore two. The Bostons sought gamely to overcome tho lead of five runs which the Giants piled up in the first Inning. The Ked Sox made two tallies In the second, but their attack was broken In the third with a brilliant catch hy Snodgrass, This play was. the turning point in Boston's offense. With tho exception of the eighth Marquard sent tho Red Sox batters back to the hench In one, two, throe order. Ray Collins twirled a fine game and in tho seven innings that the Giants faced him. not a run was scored. "Things might have been a little different had Collins been sent In from tho first," remarked Manager Slahl, "but it was a dark day, the kind that Is Just suited to O'Brien's fast hall. But O'Brien did not got tho 'breaks' and we will havo ,to try to end the series tomorrow." , "We have mado the start and wo expect to finish it up," said Manager MeGraw tonight before leaving for Boston, "by winning tomorrow's game wo can put Boston on tho defensive and that done, we will enter the last j game with the advantage with New York." While no announcement of battery selections for Tuesday's game were made tonight, before the clubs left the city, it was generally believed that Wood will work for Boston while Mathewson, with a two days' rest will ho found on the hurling hill for New York. Game Won at Start. New York won tho game right at the jump off. Devoro, after getting ; three balls and two strikes, hit a ■ grounder to Gardner and waa tossed out at first. Doylo rolled a slow bounder to Yorkcs, who could not ; field It In time to head off Doyle and . the New York captain was safe. Doyle promptly stole second, and Snodgrass fell a victim of strikes. Murray scratched a hit to tho Infield boating Wagner's fnat throw to first and Doyle Amoved to third base on tho hit. ,0'Brien, who had been watching the • runners closely, here made a mis-cue, that unbalanced the team for the Inning and finally resulted in five runs pouring across the plate. Stopping . toward first hose as if to mako n throw ,he mado a palpable balk in not tossing the ball to Stahl and when Captain Doyle appealed, Umplrff Klem waved Murray to second and brought Doyle home with the first j run. 'Merkle smashed a two-bagger to ": right field and Murray came homo I with the second run. This Started tho ! New York fans to cheerlngt and the [din became deafening when Horsing ■flashed a,, double down,, the left field ioul line, sending Merklo across with the third score. "Chief" Meyers then drove a grounder to Wagner, who made a pretty stop and throw after a hard run, hut tho Indian beat the ball to first. Herzog was held at third on the play. O'Brien seemed unsteady and Herzog and Meyers tried a double Rteal and got away witli It. Cady shot the ball to Yerkes, who, Iu returning It to the plate trying to head off Herzog, threw a little wide and Meyers went to third. Fletcher also tapped an infield hit and Meyern came homo with New York's fifth and last run. There was great joy in the stands and the fans cheered for several minutes. Fletcher took too big a lead off first and O'Brien snapping the ball to Stahl, the New York shortstop was out on a close decision, ending tho biggest hitting Inping of the present series. The five runs looked largo to tho Red Sox but they came up cheerfully in the second Inning and when they got through the score did not look so had. Gardner opened up hy chopping a grounder at Marquard, who juggled the ball long enough to permit the Red Sox third baseman to beat his throw. Manager Stahl sent a single to centre, advancing Gardner to second. Wagner struck out and Cady sent up a high fly that fell Into the big glove of Meyers. Englo, the utility inf[elder and pinch hitter, was sent into bat for O'Brien ond ho brought joy to the Rod Sox rooters hy lacing a two-bagger to left field, Gardner easily scored on the drive nnd Stahl also crossed the plato when Devore mado two or three stabs to pick up the ball, he being charged with an error.

Fifty-four years ago today tho stork left a boy at a little home neap Boston, where dwelt the Sulllvnns, from county Kerry. John Lawrence the proud parents named him, and he grew up big and1 stronrg and husky, nnd at sixteen was much larger than his father, who was small in. size butwlry. and enduring. John Lawrence was given a common school education and worked for a time In a store, but was "fired" because of a tendency to place baseball above business. Boxing soon replaced baseball In Sullivan's affecr tions, and In amateur circles he gained a reputation aa "the Boston Strong Boy." His first important professional battle was with Joe Goss, then champion. The bout was a four-round exhibition affair at a Goss benefit, but old Joe got enough of Sullivan long before th0 four rounds were finished. John L. was then twenty years old, weighed about 180 pounds, and stood five ■''cot mid ten and a' half inches. His hair, now gray, was then raven black, his broad face suffused with a smfl that In itself was enough to terrify an adversary. Well developed all over, his arms and back were the wonder of the sporting world and excited tho admiration of medical men and physical culturists. In 1880 Billy Mad den took John L. under his managerial wing, and iHsued defiance to all com ers. In 1889 and 1881 Sullivan knock ed out several good men. Including Georgo Rooko, J. Donaldson, Jack Burns, Jim Dalton and Fred Grossloy. In theso affairs Sullivan learned something of ring tactics, but his education in that direction never progressed very far. Originally ho insisted upon stand, ing In one place and defy his opponent to come within reach of his mighty arms, which meant "good night" said opponent.' Madden finally convinced him that it was desirable to movo about a bit, but the only concession Sullivan would make was a ferocious rush. "I am a fighter, not a dancing master," John L. often do- clarcd, when the necessity of developing footwork was urged upon him. His repertoire of blows consisted of a right swing, a downward left punch and a straight drive with the right, For a dozen years these proved enough except in the case of Tug Wilson. The latter, an English boxer with much skill but minus a punch, escaped Sullivan's rushes and swings for four rounds, and thus won a pot of money offered by Madden to any fighter who could turn the trick.

ROSSLAND BEATS TRAIL ONE GOAL TO NOTHING Fxcellent Game Played At Trail—Both Teams Evenly Matched And No Score At Half Time. (Special to Tlie Dnlly News.) ROSSLAND, B. C, Sopt. 14— The Rossland football team drove to Trail yesterday to play another game of football with the local aggregation with whom they have had so many tussels this senson. The Rossland boys have had a llttla bit tho best of tlfe points and as tho season advances tho Trull boys aro trying to make a littlo headway, but the men from the Golden City are still a little ahead. Thero was a fair turn out of spectators when the game started and as the weather was good there was quite a representative number of tho fair sex in attendance. Trail having lost the toas, kicked off tho ball against a strong wind, which tho Rossland team were taking every advantage of and were not exerting themselves very much to defend their goal. Time after time the Rossland team pressed down on the Trail goal but tho Troll hacks and porticulnrly NIchol hold them at bay and were there to soo that they made no score.

According to the report of the city auditor for tho first nine months of this year, ending on Sept. 30, the city received to that date ?1H,815.30 and a bank loan of $40,000, a total of $151,815.30. Payments out during the same period totalled ?lli0,98(1.02, and cash on hand on .Ian. 1 was $'-1,444.72, making a net overdraft of $5,720.02; W. E. Wasson, city clerk, explained lhat the city had no actual overdraft ai capital expenditure, for waterworks, sewers, eiecirie light construction in connection with installing the new system nn the main streets and cement sidewalk construction, to a total of about $10,000 had been met out of current revenue. This sum will be covered by debentures which have not yet Wen sold or whicli have yet to be issued. To the end of September the expenditure on streets was $9,8-12.82 and on sidewalks, $7934, against an estimate for both public works of $20,- 000. Public health expenditure hus already exceeded the estimate of $1,- 000 for the year and by Dec. 31 is expected to run about fOOO higher than tlie estimates. Extra expenses due to the scarlet fever epidemic are given as the reason for the heavier expenditure. Scavenging department expenditures for the nine months are $3,- 4ti0, against an estimate of $3500 for the year and the receipts are $1077 against an estimate of $3000 for the year. The increased expense has been caused by the new system which came into effect early in the summer. Doctor Wants Higher Salary. Dr. E. C. Arthur, medical health officer, wrote to the council asking for Increased salary. The present salary wiu not commensurate with the duties, oven hi slack times, declared Dr. Arthur. The letter was filed. Accounts totalling J71S.73, which covered the expenses in connection with the reception to tlie Duke of Connaught, were passed. A claim against the city of $3."i9 for the use ot a sewer running through his pro** perty and repairs during the past six yean* was made by John T. Pierre tor whom James H. Grant, of O'Shea & Farria, appeared. The city has an account for water rates against Mr. Pierre and he offered to allow this to offset the larger amount claimed. In August 1310, it was explained, an agreement had been drawn up between the city and Pierre which provides that Pierre was to receive 350 In full payment for the use of tlie sewer and expense; in connection dining the previous (on years and for the full use of the s,*we during the coming five yeais.

OCTOBER 15 Published at Nelson Every Morning Except Sunday, by The New* Publishing Company, Limited. W. Q. FOSTER, Editor and Manager. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 15 1 THE VILLAGE SCHOOL TEACHER [. AND HIS PROTOTYPE. J And still they gazed, and still the wonder grew I That one small head could carry all he knew. J The above lines used by Goldsmith n describing his village school teacher pply with particular appropriateness ft» a certain resident of British Columbia who professes to know as xmich in his way about mining as the piilage school teacher of Goldsmith's Imagination was credited by the rustics with knowing about things in general. It is perhaps needless to remark that Mr. E. Jacobs is the British Columbia man referred to. | On many occasions Mr. Jacobs has undertaken to demonstrate that he Is the one and only person in tiie province who can bo trusted to tell the truth iibdut mining. "Any slip of u word or a figure, typographical or otherwise, Is seized upon by this paragon of reliability as an opportunity for demonstrating his superiority over the common herd and generally, In addition, for malting some, to say the least, uncharitable, if not churlish remark about someone. Mr. Jacobs appears tn have his lynx eyes trained on Nelson every moment of his waking hours to see what fault Or flaws he can pick in anything concerning mining said by anyone in this section or in any way disseminated from here. Judging by the attention Which he given it in last week's issue of The Vancouver Province, It must have been with a glee approaching unhollness, that he found In a recent l3sue of The Vancouver Saturday Sunset, an article by "Lady Van'' in Which there was ascribed to Mr. H. H, Currie, Nelson's publicity commissioner, the following: This promises to lie a banner year for mining in the Kootenay *" since 1901, and the metalliferous- '"production will easily run twenty hmillions. J The ■ all-wise Mr. Jacobs does not stop to inquire whether Mr. Currie gave expression to the views attributed to him or whether "Lady Van" may not have Inadvertently misquoted him. It is possible, for example. that, in placing this estimate on tin- year's production, Mr. Currie Included the coal and coke products of the (frow's Nest Pass mines as well as the output of the Boundary smelters, in which event time may show his figures to be not far wide of the mark, i£ they are wide at all, although there if always danger in predictions. | After going to elaborate trouble to disprove the statement attributed to Mr. Currie, bis chastiaer proceeds: i "May I venture In add a little | advice to "Lady Van?" Later in i your interesting letter—ami I do i sincerely think your letters frequently interesting—under notice, you mention 'Kootenay district hot air.' That's just It. Much of the so-called mining news given and sent out from Nelson is 'hot ; air' pure and simple. So is is unsafe to accept it, especially as much of it is generated by 'enthusiastic' (but as regards mining matters ) ignorant young men.

I urn sorry he gulled you — that 'competent young man.' " What Mr. Jacobs apparently Intends to convey is that "There Is no King but Dodo,'' that there is no authority on mining but Jacobs, and that, In fact, anything which appears regarding mining in British Columbia, the Kootenay included, which does not bear his imprint, must be accepted with very grave suspicion. He knows it all and to demonstrate this he must periodically prove that someone else knows nothing. Hence the time and energy he has devoted to "Lady Van's" article and the attempt to belittle Mr. Currie. EDITORIAL NOTES. It was eminently fitting that Brock's memory should have been honored yesterday in the Empire's heart. Germany is going to drive the Standard Oil company out of that country. That is about tho only way to deal with a monopoly of that kind. Col. Roosevelt's speech, In his breast pocket, saved his life yesterday. But will all his speeches, with the aid of other means, elect him president for a third term? Hon. C. W. Cross, attorney general of Alberta, interviewed in Winnipeg on the eve -of the Macdonald by-election in reference to charges that crooks had been imported to work on behalf of the Reciprocity candidate, said: I was speaking to a prominent Liberal member of the Edmonton Liberal association and he endorsed my view that there are no crooks here from Alberta. This would almost suggest that Mr. Cross and his friend, the prominent Liberal member of the Edmonton Liberal association, were pretty well acquainted with Alberta crooks. The Vancouver Sun waxes righteously Indignant because the Borden government has provided S3G.000 for a survey of the Columbia river with a view to opening a new trade routo to the Pacific via Portland. The Sun will perhaps bo deeply pained to learn that the first grnnt for this purpose was made by tlie late Laurier government and that Sir Wilfrid himself promised to have a thorough investigation mado of the feasibility of tiie suggested route, so far as tlie portion north of the international boundary was concerned.

An Excellent Suggestion. Mr. Borden says there should bo no east and no west, hut adds that there is a six hundred mile wilderness between them.

COMMUNICATION FROM MRS. LOGIE. To tho Editor of The Daily News: Sir: With regard to the editorial whicli appeared in your issue of the News of even date, containing ex- tracts from a letter as set forth, and in respect to which then; havo been some conversation and remarks during the* Inst few weeks, it is perhaps advisable for me to make a statement. 1 bCg to say that the fact and manner of the publication of the extracts is to me a matter of regret and formed no part of my original intention. The sentiments of civic pride and jealous Indignation, which may be expressed by some, over what lo them appears to lie an unwarranted reflection upon the good name of this fair city, are worthy of the highest admiration, if they are well founded. The categorical statements mode in the i|uoted extracts In your editorial, furnish the basis for an investigation, Which if conducted by the proper authorities, would display tbe foundation on which these sentiments are based, The evidence given by Lady Kihghtly and Ellen Joyce before the imperial trade commission, whicli is published nn page seven of the same issue of the News under tho caption of "Danger to Female Emigrants," furtiier accentuates tho advisability of such investigation. Statements attributed to me have m-hv been published, and the fact that they were published without design, instead of weakening them, constitute ono of the elements of their strength, and they are substantiated by physical and institutional facts which stare in tho face every citizen all the time and' the mere expression of lofty sentiments or the delivery of verbose language does not get rid of the patent condition of things. It woiild be exceeding my province to presume to suggest to those charged w'th the responsibility of fostering tbe basis for a city's mamo in such an atmosphoro, 'that It could always bo mentioned with pride and affection, any means whereby the supposed as persions can be swept from association with the fair name of Nelson, but it would be equally presumptuous to conclude there could be no such suggestion advanced. B. C. LOGIE. The Manse, Nelson, 13, C, Oct. 14, 1912 WAS WELCOMED IN NELSON. To the Editor of The Daily News: Sir: I must apologize for trespassing on your valuable space, but having read the statements In your paper today under the article entitled "One View of Nelson," I feel it is only fair to the city and to myself to write some defence however feeble it may seom. I was asked to come out to British Columbia and be head of a homo for English girls; Nelson was suggested as other large cities had their hostels already. I reached Nelson fn May nnd at once enquired as to the possibilities of starting such a home, but found it was not needed. Most of the young women employed are those who live at home and go daily to work; others, with the exception of three, who are with friends, are acting as house helps and are consequently provided for as regards a home. With such an organization at work as the Women's Institute work in British Columbia, there can be but little need for the Y. W. C. A. I understand there are over 100 members in Nelson of the YV. I, The object elf* their organization Is toward the betterment of conditions prevailing in home life, by inculcating tbe highest ideals of home life and honesty of purpose, by a wise and right upbringing Our children, by fostering patriotism and love of country, so that tho women of this glorious land, so full oi promise, may proyc a power In the upbuilding of the great Dominion of Canada. Can there be any higher ideal? Another work undertaken by Women's Institute is that of welcoming new settlers, helping them to work out the problem of home making In a new and strange neighborhood, acting also as a bureau of Information to them. The extract of the letter, sir, gives the Idea that nothing is being doi| for tho girls and women in Nelson. What of the various organizations already at work? The work under the Rev. F. Ii. Graham of "Tlie Daughters of the King," the social evenings nnd Blbi'e classes of the various churches? I believe each section is putting forth its best efforts to do its best for all, whether newcomers or not and it Is not fair to Nelson or to our friends In lhe old country to give tbe city sucli a smudg'ed sheet. My own experience was absolutely the reverse of tho tenor of the letter printed, every effort for us was made for suitable work to be found. Introductions given, invitations to church and classes and the kindness and hospitality we have received from tho inhabitants of Nelson has been splendid and unsurpassed. The memory of it will always be bright. F. B. ATKINSON. Nelson, B. C, Oct. 14 .

ELECTRICITY FOE OF HUNGER Hunger is shortly to be abolished by electricity. Such Is the prophecy of Professor Begonie, who has explained the method to the Congress of the Society for the Advancement of Science, now In session at Nimes. Begonie recalled the experiments of Professor Berthelot, who claimed that within a generation steaks and other foods would be replaced by small pills containing the necessary chemical constituents to sustain life. Begonie added that what chemistry had not accomplished electricity will achieve through "high frequency treatment." Therefore we may shortly be ordering five electric currents at Intervals of seven seconds instead of soup.—Paris correspondent, New York American.

C ProspecU of the Timber TJM/e in the West By a. e. watts. After a period of most unusual depression which has prevailed since puts, thettrade Is on, the eve of recovery, but no gratitude Is due to politicians, whu have ignored the rights of the lumber industry to protection against the dumping of foreign lum- The west has a most magnificent borne market for lumber, which during tlie past -four years has suffered nearly to the' verge of ruin for Interior iniiiuii'aettir'era, lumber having been dumped oh' to the market by Americans at olio-half the cost of production, owing- principally to the failure of crops in the' northwest states and the weakness of their banking institutions, which aro not able to carry their clients through periods of depression like the powerful Canadian banks. The American manufacturers, with little home demahdSi were compelled to sacrifice their product for anything they could obtain, their banking system and the lack of courage of our politicians to enforce tiie. collection of duty arc entirely responsible for the ruinous competition and great loss sustained by the western Canadian manufacturers; this loss will run into millions of dollars, and according to the opinion of eminent counsel; lumber manufacturers have a good'cause for action against the customs department of Canada for losses incurred through their neglect to enforce the law ns it stands on tlie statute books. An approximate." idea can he obtained of what the losses amount to by the demoralisation of thd trade In western Canada by over 500.000,000 feet of foreign lumber per annum being dumped on the market at 36 per 1,000, or $6,000 per 1,000,000 feet leSn than cost of production, Americans resent this statement, but facts and figures submitted to tlie minister of customs prove it. Canadian mill men desirous of unloading their burdens onto unsuspecting inventors disapprove of publicity in this respect. Trade conditions in the United Slates having improved, they al once leave the Canadian market severely alone, and whilst we in the west overproduce, jirices will not touch the standard obtained during 1001 to 1007. but in the mountainous regions of tlie interior over-production is not likely to occur in the immediate future or until prices are very materially raised, owing to most of the timber convenient lo transportation having been cut, and the Increased cost of logging, wages nnd Supplies, extra burdens imposed by the government, lack of efficient help, the education of the masses having demonstrated to them the possibility of obtaining "something for nothing." a la railroad nnd other great financial operators whom they are learning to emulate in a very practical manner.

In double quick lime. .Consequence,, demoralized trade losses for all concerned. Outside of the few dangerous shoals ahead the lumber trade of the west litis a magnificent future, and for the man or firm < who can weather the' storms and hold the timber there Is nothing to fear except the stupid and puerile fear of financial operators, provided transportation facilities can be managed by Ihe railway companies, who, Insplte of ihe pap fed them by governments with subsidies of cash enough to build them roads and millions of dollars* worth of hotels, empires of land given them, bonds for millions upon millions guaranteed by the people, and yet they cannot supply curs nor power to move grain, lumber, coal or other commodities. The people are asking why. Who can answer them? People are attracted to tlie country by the magnificent possibilities advertised by railway companies and the government, dumped onto land; Ibey work, work, work and produce. Their produce is left to rot on tlie ground. They want shelter, they want fuel. Neither lumber nor coal can be transported. Why? The railroad manipulators can travel In their palatial cars, ships and yachts, provide troops to fight in Africa, or any other old place, get titles and other useless, vainglorious truck-, but fail to attend to their proper business—to transport shelter, fuel, food and clothing to tlin poor victims they have Induced to part with their cash and their homes in other lands. Nemesis will not forget the guilty. The sufferers in all occupations will remember those who dare to criticize and to fight for their rights and common justice. PEACEMAKER ON ARBITRATION Sir George Askwith Not Believer in Compulsory Arbitration—Law Cannot Be Enforced. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) MONTRRAL, Oct. 11,-That trade agreements between the employers and the labor unions were as a general thing observed by both contracting parties, was a statement made today by Sir George Askwlth, chairman of the conciliation department of the l3rltisli board of trade. In uddresslng a meeting at l!ie Canadian club. Sir George discussed the labor question in Britain from the viewpoint of one whose time has been given much of late years to settling disputes between trade unions and employers ond his address in the main was cheerful of coming better relations between employer and employe. "Law up to a certain point may be Valuable In settling disputes, but If you make a law lt Is. important thai you should be able to enforce that law and that it should be with the general consent of the people, rather than by forcing it on a mass of people who object to it absolutely, "The beginning of every act' by parliament says n is by the advice and FOR, RENT—Office arid living rooms 1 K.

Sir George referred to cases where agreements were broken but attributed the trouble in most cases to the fact that a union should suddenly receive n large increase in membership and the leaders would be unable to control tiie men, and instances the big railway strike as an example of this. Sir George does not believe greatly in legislation which would compel unions to submit their questions to arbitration. He cited a threatened coal strike of Scotch miners as an example hen an old Welsh miner called into consultation had told a minister of ihe crown that 000,000 men could not he sent to jail even if they failed to obey the law and arbitrate! It was useless, Sir George contended, to pass laws which could not be enforced and It was practically Impossible to enforce unpopular laws on thousands of workmen. The railway strike, the lec- luror stated, was of such a complicated nature that, although agreements had been broken parliament stepped in and advised a meeting of both sides. Tlie meeting ended In lhe formation of a scheme under which the railways of Great Britain are now governed and which, the spealter felt would be a successful one. "lt has been boasted," the speaker concluded, "thai our country is one able to settle anything. Settlement implies an agreement. Agreements can ot have a lasting progress on a ba- Is of broken faith." POWERS ONLY ABLE TO LOCALIZE WAR Nothing Short of Miracle Can Stay General Assault on Turkey— Peace of Europe. LONDON, Oct. 13.—The general peace of Europe rather than a general onflagratlon in the Balkans Is the (niestlon stirring the continental ond British press. The hours of suspense, waiting for lhe Balkan war, are nearly over. The London Times says editorially: "Though the powers cannot now stop tlie Balkan war, they can localize It. limit Its duration and settle its ultl- mute consequences, for the concert is not meanwhile impaired by ill-advised agitation. "These may seem limited aims; lliey may imply feebleness of action; but they certainly contain the essence of interests more Vital, for they mean the general peace of Europe, which is of tlie greatest' moment." The breaking off of the Turco-Italtan pour parlers also has made the deepest impression in Austria. The London Dally Telegraph's correspondent at Vienna wires: "It is regarded as a grave complication of the situation." The London Times' correspondent in Vjcnnn wires: "While making all possible allowance for further sensational developments, it Is thought that nothing short of a mircle can stay a general assault on Turkey." FAULTS OF THE AEROPLANE Commercially, the aeroplane is useless in its present state. It cannot carry any great weight, It will not stand any extrn strain, nnd is unable to fly unless the weather be almost perfect. Automatic stability is still In an Imperfect stage, and the motors arc not altogether reliable. Last, but not least, it is a very efcpcnsivo machine, both in its first cost and in the outlay necessary tn keep It in proper condition. These faults, as well as many others, must be overcome before we have a practical flying machine.

LONDON, Oct. 14.—From Vlonna comes a sensational report of an Aus- tro-Balkan ngrcemeat, laying the basis for a new European imperial oonfed- ratlon. Sir Edward Grey, secretary Qf state for foreign affairs, declines to discuss the proposition or to admit thnt Great Britain is officially aware of its existence in fact. In diplomatic 'ircles, however, the report Is given general credence, and it does not seem tn have taken the embassies by surprise. A former under secretary for foreign affairs Is authority for the .statement that Austria's interests in this regard have been the subject of official cor respondence between England, Germany, Russia and France for tho last month or six weeks. These nations. he says, will never tolerate such a strong combination in the far cast. "It would lie a slanding menace," he said, "to every European power and would destroy the Balkan buffer, to create which the powers of Europe have ro-operatcd as Ear as possible in friendly assistance to Bulgaria, Rou- niania. Servia and Montenegro." "Koumunln," he added, "will not enter such an alliance, but will, on the contrary, support Turkey, with the aid and approval of Russia.'' The belief is growing in Downing slreet that a European war which would involve three, If not nil, the great powers is an impending probability. The sudden change of the orders by the admiralty, strengthening the British fleet in the Mediterranean, is deemed significant of tho eXtromi gravity of the situation.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF GREAT WEALTH NEW FACADE FOR BUCKINGHAMiPALACE Portland Stone to Replace Existing Stucco Front—Plans Are Already Prepared. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) LONDON, Oct. 14.—The hideous drab stucco front of Buckingham palace, the royal residence in London, is to disappear. A beautiful new facade of Portland stout*, planned by Sir Ash- ton Webb and costing $300,000, is to be substituted for it. The building has been one of London's architectural sights. Visitors from all parts of the world for generations have viewed with amazement the bold, smoke grimed brick frontage of the reigning sovereign's residence in the capital of the empire and the beautiful environment of St. James and Green parks has only served lo bring into bolder relief the absolute dreariness of the unbroken prosellc ■Huge windows and the impoverished looking structure. Moreover, the beautiful white marble memorial of Queen Victoria, also designed by Sir Ashton Webb, which stands facing the palace, has done much to hasten the desire to demolish tlie existing facade. The work of reconstruction will not be commenced, however, until next fall and In the meanwhile all the stone required will be prepared so as to mini- Denunciation by Archibishop of York —Capital and Labor Have Duty to Community. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) LONDON, Oct. 14.—There has been a flutter of excitement over lhe fierce denunciation of the idle rich hy the Archbishop of York at tho church congress at Middlpsborough. He charged them with being the cause of much of the present industrial unrest. "First, is it not patent!" he asked, in that perhaps the main cause of the ■bitterness which enters Into the present discontent is the existence of a 'large and apparently Increasing class of persons into whose spending of •Wealth no conception of duty or responsibility seems to enter." He says: '.Your example, your selfishness and ■Luxury are more responsible for the bitterness and discontent than the agitators and their sneers. It Is you that discredit wealth and provoke what you "denounce as schemes of spoliation. 1 ■ "The church lias no commission to take sides with any particular policy, but its commission is to get the moral and splrital principles intrusted to it into the consciences of every class. and wo can get no further until each really sees the necessity of mutual understanding. It is the business of the church to keep reminding them of it. Capital, even in the form of shares in Joint stock banks, Is responsible for the conditions of labor it employs on •allroads. in factories, at home, or rubber plantations abroad. . On tlie other hand, when power Is in the bands of labor equally with the trust It is not enough that It should be used to get What it can. Labor is morally bound to consider the interests and/necessities of the whole community." WAR FORMALLY DECLARED- SIGNS PEACE WITH ITALY (Bv Dally News Leased Wire.) MONTREAL, Oct. 14.—A special cable received from the 1'arls office of the firm of Greenshlelds & Co., brokers, this afternoon, says lhat Turkey formally declared war against the Papers Discovered Said to Prove That Winston Churchill's Father Advocated Home Rule. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) DUBLIN, Oct. 14.—lt Is now said that the author of the slogan "Ulster will tight and Ulster will be right" was a traitor to the cause. Wilfrid Scawen Blunt, digging into the records of secret statesmanship, through the Glud- sUmiiin period up to the formation of the present ministry, has shown that Lord Randolph Churchill was .actively working for home rule while lie was chancellor of the exchequer in the Tory administration of lhe Marquis of Salisbury. In the fall of 188!) lie wrote many letters and gave numerous conferences to Irish members, in nil of which ho assured Pamell he was for home rule, id a parliament at Dublin, and that he was educating his party to this point of view. Six months later Gladstone's conversion to Irish self-government was announced. Lord Randolph Churchill switched around and became the most virulent foe of the Irish party. This raking of the coals of the controversy over the grave of a dead man has shocked a good many people, both In England and here, where, altogether apart from party opinion, the fiery father of Winston Churchill is held in the highest respect. This fact and the indignotlon of his tordship's widow.
