Price, Five Cents IALLAGHER IS SORRY NOW BAYS DEED WAS DONE ON THE SPUR OF THE MOMENT ���lad Been Robbed of His Employment By Mayor Gaynor.���Got Crazy Seeing His Enemy Smiling and Prosperous. SIR WILFRID SAIL5 TO-NIGHT Immense Illuminations in His Honor at Victoria���All the Passenger Accommodation on the Prince George Sold Out. GAS PRODUCER PLANT PROPOSED SCHEME TO SUPPLY PRINCE RUPERT WITH CHEAP LIGHT Jersey City, N. J., Aug 14.���"I am wiry now for what I did and I hope jjlayor Gaynor will recover. It was done pn the spur of the moment and I acted hat way because I had been robbed of ny employment," said Jas. D. Gallagher isailant of Mayor Gaynor. "I wrote a letter to the mayor asking i to give me back my job," continued Gallagher. "He refused to listen to me knd I went home. I got to thinking it pver, and the more I thought the mad- I got until I resolved to get even. ITou'd have done it yourself," said Gal- .agher, suddenly turning upon Assistant Prosecutor McCarthy, in whose presence be made his statement to the United Press. "When I left home yesterday I did not intend to shoot anyone. Honest, ! was ready to look for another job. But bought a paper, and the first thing '. saw was 'Gaynor going on a vacation.' t'hen I saw that and thought of him ; porterhouse steaks and me a bum, It came to me strong that I ought to rid he country of a man who refused to right my wrong. "I hunted up my revolver, the one I id when I worked for the city, aliped it in my jeans, and went to the dock, i wasn't going to make any mistake and isked a preacher to show me Gaynor, t'hen I got crazy seeing him standing Eappy and smiling and prosperous, and I anged away. I was crazy mad, for I pould see nothing but Gaynor, Gay- por everywhere, and did not even know got him until after I was pinched. "I was fired from the dock department because I opposed the graft. I was known las a letter writer and I guess that made them think I was a nuisance and ought (to be canned. When I thought of my ill-treatment, I thought it was 0. K. for me to right it, but now I'm sorry I did it. "How's the mayor now?" (Special to the Optimist) Victoria, August 18.���Five thousand people gathered last evening at Parliament buildings when Premier McBride welcomed the distinguished visitor, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, in the name of the province. The illuminations were splendid. From a distance the buildings looked like a huge elevation plan on a dark blue background. All the lines and prominent points in the architecture were drawn in lines of light and shaded WILL VISIT STEWART [ President Hays and Party Will Make The Round Trip Mr. McMaster has received advices J that the President Hays party, which is I due to arrive here next Wednesday | afternoon, will continue on the Prince Rupert to Stewart, returning on that steamer the following day. A. W. Smithers, chairman of the board of directors of the Grand Trunk Pacific, who is of the party, is on his annual visit on behalf of the British investors and will go over all the road which now carries steel. This will be his first visit to Prince Rupert. Speaking at Winnipeg a few days ago Mr. Smithers stated that the general feeling among the directors was one of felief that the recent strike trouble had been adjusted, the more so as they had entirely supported President Hays in his stand, which they regarded as fair to both sides. Mr. Smithers, however, considered that such difficulties were likely to prove injurious to the Dominion, arid destroy the confidence among capitalists which had made Canada of late a pet subject for investment at easy rates. here and there with color effects. The illuminations of the city were on an equally liberal scale and the celebration was what it promised to be���the grandest old Victoria has ever made. Sir Wilfrid had a busy time of it receiving the many deputations. One after the other they crowded upon him but all were received cordially and went away with the smiles of winners. This morning he drove over' the city with the Lieutenant-governor.everywhere being heartily cheered along the line of his route. His Honor T. W. Paterson the lieutenant-governor entertained Sir Wilfrid at luncheon at his residence, many of the leading Liberals of the province being invited to meet the premier. Sir Wilfrid and party leave late tonight for Prince Rupert on the steamer Prince George. Many people are making the trip from here and Vancouver and all the accommodations on the boat had been reserved before noon today. NEW YORK HAS A LARGE FIRE WHOLE BUSINESS BLOCK ENTIRELY WIPED OUT Two Thousand Terrified Families Turned Into Streets���One Fireman Killed���Fire Started in Cork Warehouse and Spread Rapidly. (Special to the Optimist) New York, August 18.���Last night a fire broke out in the warehouse district at the foot of Water St. and did damage roughly estimated at a million. It wiped out a whole block of business buildings and turned two thousand terrified families into the street. The fire broke out in a cork warehouse and the flaming cork being carried by the winds made the fire spread rapidly. There was a large fire-fighting force on hand but the best that could be done with the aid of water towers and every other appliance was to confine the flames to the one block. The people got out of the burning buildings with marvellous alacrity, none so far as know, being injured. But in the rescue work one fireman was killed and another badly hurt. Candidate was Jailed Cordova, Alaska, Aug. 11.���William O'Connor, Labor candidate for delegate to congress in Tuesday's election, is out on bail today awaiting trial for fighting with Nick Welsh, a local contractor. They quarreled over political questions,and though defeated at the polls, O'Connor won the physical contest with ease. THEIR NEW UNIFORMS Saturday Will Be a Proud Day For Prince Rupert Policemen PRINCE RUPERT MAN ARRESTED ARTHUR SILLS TO ANSWER TO CHARGE OF FORGERY Brought Before Police Court in Vancouver.���Drew a Cheque on Bank Of Commerce Here and Asked Mr. Christie to Cash it. The whole of the police force of Prince Rupert will don their new uniforms early on Saturday morning, and Chief McCarvell will hold special drill to instruct them how to dress up on parade and military tactics in handling large crowds. The uniform is a neat army blue, with narrow scarlet stripe down the seam of the trousers and gilt buttons. But the whole force today is as fussy and nervous as a girl on the eve of her first ball, for the helmets have not arrived. Many Indians in Town Over two hundred Indians are visiting Prince Rupert. They come from the Skeena river canneries and will remain here until Sunday, when they will go to their homes on the islands. Vancouver, August 14.���Charged with forging a cheque for $26 on July 26, Arthur Sills again appeared in the police court this morning, and was again remanded for a week for more evidence. The teller at the Bank of Commerce gave evidence of the cheque being drawn by Sills. He did not remember him calling in on July 19 and asking the manager to wire Prince Rupert about his banking account. A man named Hicks, in whose favor the cheque was drawn, said he drove Sills about to several places during the day of July 20. Sills paid him cash, but returned in the evening with the cheque which he wanted cashed. Hicks had only $16 on him which he handed to Sills retaining the cheque, against which he understood Sills to say there was $75 in the bank. Sills who went into the witness box swore that he was interested in some land on the Skeena river, and that a Mrs. McDonald had paid him a cheque for $200 for staking and advertising it for her. He came to Prince Rupert on a Sunday morning and asked Mr. Christie the bank manager there to cash it, but he could not do so. Thinking the money would be placed to his credit by July 20, he drew the cheque fully confident that it would be met. He came to Vancouver because he had another deal on here. Sills was crossexamined by Mr. Kennedy to show that he was aware Mrs. McDonald had no account, but this he denied. He admitted having served terms of imprisonment in Bellingham, Victoria and Kamloops, one of the sentences being for forgery. Sills agreed to the adjournment and said he wanted to give every facility to have the matter cleared up. SUPPLY GAS BY DECEMBER TSIMPSEAN POWER CO WILL START WORK IMMEDIATELY R. Brutinel Here to Secure a Site for The Plant and Start Things Going.���Other Schemes Will Be Advanced Alto. R. Brutinel, of Edmonton representing the Tsimpsean Light and Power Co., arrived in the city yesterday and will remain here for some time.. It is the intention of the company to commence operations upon their gas plant at once and Mr. Brutinel is here for the purpose of securing the site and getting the work under way. They will have the gas gong through their mains to the consumersiby the end of November or the first of December. At the same time the company will advance their power, street railway and other schemes. Their policy throughout will be one of harmony with the people as outlined by Mr. Brutinel last winter when he was here. Further particulars of the plans of the company will appear in tomorrow's issue. Police Court Items In the police court items yesterday 'the name of the man Storck who is charged with frequenting Comox avenue resorts was slightly misspelled which might have confused his identity with that of a prominent citizen were the charge not so disgusting. Storck came to town some months ago to work as a printer but has not been employed at the trade for some time. Neil McKay charged A. S. Levine in the police court this morning with assault. The assault is alleged to have taken place in front of the Premier hotel on Tuesday evening last. The case was adjourned until Friday. Jos. Le Blanche, who was charged with selling liquor without a license has jumped the town when he did not answer when called yesterday a warrant was issued for his arrest, but he has gone. Lost His Way A prominent G. T. P. official whose office is on the wharf got lost in the forest on Centre Sound last night and was seen going into one of the steamship offices where he enquired his way home. No Council Meeting The council adjourmed last night until next week as the balance of this week is taken up with various duties. Can Be Installed and the Town Lighted by Middle of December.��� Company Will Build Their Own Wharf���Mr. Waller Coming. The electric light proposition which Mr. Durant submitted to the council a couple of nights ago was practically the same as he laid before the Board of Trade last fall. Since then he has put a great deal of work on it, along with Mr. Waller and they have now got the thing in good shape and ready for the financial men to take up. As was stated in these columns before Mr. Waller, of Vancouver, will be here in a few days and he will interview the council and lay before them the full details. It is expected that Mr. Waller will furnish the capital necessary for developing the power. The scheme is simply to instal a gas producer plant for generating electricity. The company propose to supply the power to the city at a cost which will e.iable the council to distribute it to the consumers and cover all their expenses and still give it to the consumers at a reasonable price. Mr. Waller has a site on this island where he can establish his plant and also have a wharfage on the water front for receiving coal and other supplies. The company is taking all the chances as they propose to give the city a price on the power delivered at the end of a distributing line. The company will start at that work and the building for their plant immediately the council gives them a contract. Nearly all their machinery can be had on short notice as much of it is stocked. Thus there will be no delay. Tbe biggest job will be building the wharf and the house for the plant. Mr. Durant told the Optimist yesterday that they could be ready to supply electric light to the whole town by December 15, providing their plans are accepted at once. The council will have to hustle some to have their sub-station erected and pole lines in by that time, and it is doubtful if the temporary steam plant spoken of can be installed any sooner as the plant has to be ordered and shipped in the same as any other plant. After Mr. Waller arrives further particulars will be given. THE WARD BY-LAW Fulton Street is Taken as the Dividing Line of the Town Vancouver Fails to Score Vancouver, August 18.���(Special)��� The league baseball games played yesterday resulted as follows:- Seattle three, Vancouver nil Spokane six, Tacoma one. Fire Started by Lightning (Special to the Optimist) Portland, Ore., August 18.���The Cascade Forest Reserve for miles is a mass of flame today. The fire was started by lightning and made such headway that it was soon beyond control, although the troops were called out to fight it. The ward by-law was introduced by Aid. Pattullo at last night's council meeting. It was given two readings and is now in the hands of the committee of the whole. The by-law divides the town into two wards, with Fulton street as the dividing line. The wards will be known as east of Fulton and west of Fulton. The reason Fulton street was chosen as the dividing line is that it is almost a natural divisional line and gives as near an equal division of the assessment as possible. Some of the aldermen suggested McBride street, but that would throw all the heavy assessment of the business district in the west ward, and it would also give thc west the majority of representatives in the council. The act calls for the wards to be made according to the assessment. Aid. Pattullo informed the Optimist that the aldermen would be glad to receive any suggestions from the citizens if they can figure out any better scheme.

The Old Cat 'Twas at the hour of tea time, And little Tommy (four) Had filled with milk a saucer, And set it by the door. And then he crept out softly, And peeped outside the gate, And muttered with impatience, "Oh! why is puss so late?" Then soon along came grandma, Who'd just arrived by train; And when she saw the saucer Asked Tommy to explain. Then he, in words so simple, Said "Grandma, it is five, And father said at tea time The old cat would arrive."

Thursday, Aug. 18 THE GRADING CONTRACT The decision of the city council is awarding the grading contract on Eleventh street and Beach Place to Contractor Swanson, establishes a precedent which may prove a little awkward in the future. The city engineer bid $2.00 per yard for rock and 60c per yard for earth while Swanson's bid was $2.25 per yard for rock and one dollar per yard for earth. On the estimated measurements the city engineer's tender was several hundred dollars cheaper than Swanson's although his bulk tender, which included a large percentage for contingencies, was nearly $200 more. The price per yard for excavating is a very live topic among contractors and property owners just now and it would have been very interesting to see what the city could make it under day labor. It was probably wise for the council not to tie the city engineer up to a small contract just now when he has many other more important matters requiring his attention, but being the lowest tenderer per yard in this instance and not getting the contract may cause a squabble later when the city council may want him to take over a larger contract if he should be the lowest again. A contractor would have a reasonable complaint. The city council should announce their policy in having the city engineer tender. If he is not to be awarded the contract except under special circumstances the fact should be announced in fairness to the contractors. THE DAUGHTERS OF THE EMPIRE The ladies of the city are to be congratulated upon the formation of a local chapter of the Daughters of the Empire. Like all organized movements for doing good it is a benefit to those who give as well as to those who receive. Conceived in a spirit of patriotism the work and efforts of the ladies is to do something that will better humanity by helping in some simple or uncommon way the individual or a community. To do all the good possible is an aspiration which is most credible to the ladies and whatever is the particular object adopted by Queen Mary Chapter in Prince Rupert deserves the assistance and hearty response of everyone.

It was from the provincial government and represented the governments claim against the current revenue of this town for this year. The council also received a report from the M. H. O. dealing with the bad meat problem. All the members were present at last night's session with the mayor in the chair. A communication was received by the council from the Minister of Finance of B. C, enclosing the claim of the province against the city. The claim amounted to $15,334.04. This did not include the amount already advanced for the electric light. The bill included the first assessment made for the city amounting to $905.55 and the portion of realty taxes due to the government, amounting to $14,428.48. This sum should all be paid out of this years current revenue. The communication was referred to the Finance committee. Bad Meat The M. H. O. reported that he had investigated the bad meat question and found that the quality of meat being sent here was very inferior. He recommended also that butchers be requested to furnish cold storage on board ship or bring in live cattle and slaughter them here. Aid. Hilditch moved that the clerk write the M. H. O. informing him that the council requires him to enforce the by-law referring to tainted meat and that the council has nothing to do with cold storage on boats. Aid. Pattullo suggested that the mayor take the matter up with the M. H. O. and give him the necessary instructions. The finance committee recommended the payment of an account for $227.80 to the Board of Trade to pay the salary of| night patrolman who was engaged before the city was incorporated. Aid. Pattillo moved that the bill be paid, Aid. Mobley seconded the motion and it carried. Aid. Pattullo asked leave to introduce a by-law dividing the city into wards. It was read a first time and carried. The rules were suspended and the bylaw was read a second time. =E. EBY C& ^ REAL ESTATE "~~ Kitsumkalum Land For Sale KITSUMKALUM B.C.

Editor Optimist,���I see there bai not yet been any answer made by Mayor Stork to my letter to you. I was pleased that you followed the matter up in your editorial and covered a number ot points that I overlooked when writing. The ground you take is quite right. It is not for me to take the responsibility ol an action in court. The mayor has been elected to serve the people, and to serve them in a proper legal way, and if be has rendered himself liable to be unseated, or disqualified himself to sit under the provisions of the Municipil Clauses Act which is quite clear on tin point, it is for himself to see to it as) not place the city in a position whereis actions could be called into quest* on legal grounds, and business transacted by him become null and void After all that has been said on the telephone question, he will not place himself in the position that the by-law which may bear his signature or the debenture! which he may have to sign in that connection, may be declared illegal* Ir may also be found that unless mayor is proved to be properly that when the city tries to sell debentures for proposed street work, that the parties who purchase the debentures may at the last minute be advised against the purchase of them on the grounds that the mayor is disqualified and therefore debentures signed by him woukd not be gow- We know how careful and nervous financial people are when they Jen money and every point will be looked up* Should anything of lhat ***** at the last minute there would be �� in proceeding with much needed W work. Surely we have had enough delay already. .���... Let the mayor face the matter ���* fully and get the opinion of tjm joiincil solicitors as to whether he is qua or not to sit and vote at the e Meetings, after having received*M from the City Treasury lor an uiwtw This would set at rest the W ing of uneasiness which exists over account. the matter now.

WALLACE Co., Ltd. Fulton St. and Third Ave. Through the courtesy of Fred Cook, Ottawa correspondent of the London Times, the Optimist is in receipt of a copy of "The Canadian Who's Who." published by the great journal. The Times was exceedingly fortunate in securing the services of Mr. Cook as editor of the work. Although his name is not found in its pages he is known throughout the Dominion and probably is acquainted or knows of every Canadian of prominence for a generation or two. He was twice Mayor Cook of Ottawa and for many years up to the present has occupied a seat in the press gallery at the house of commons. But even with such editorial excellence at its head the collection of such cyclopoedic information in a new country with no such previous records for reference, must have been a work of extreme difficulty in the first place, and in the second the exercise of nice judgment in discriminating who was entitled to be a who is such a publication. Many of such directories of celebrities have been attempted, and many if not all on this continent have been worse then worseless in that they are misleading. The publishers started at the wrong end. Instead of attempting the publication of a work of substantial value as a book of reference for all, they tried to make it a book of profit for the publishers only. The representatives of one of such enterprises is in Prince Rupert today. He called upon a business man, writes out the biography and at the close of the interview mentions what it will cost for the biography to appear in the book. The London Times, on the contrary, went to a very large expense in securing the data for'The Canadian Who's Who." and published it without asking or receiving any monetary consideration from those whose names find a place in it. The editor does say in his foreward that perchance the name of some prominent Canadian has been omitted, but this might happen because those gentlemen failed to answer the circulars sent to them. This independent impartiabil- ity makes the work of value. It sets a hallmark, so to speak, upon the twenty- five hundred or so of people whose graphies are given in the book, and no Canadian reference library is complete without it. COMING ON OPERATOR Party of Engineer* Making Trip From Edmonton Vernor W. Smith received a telegram from Mr. Stewart, of Foley, Welch & Stewart, that the engineer party would reach Hazelton last night and asking that a boat be there to meet them. The Operator was due there yesterday and left at seven o'clock last night with the party for Kitselas. The party was met at Hazelton by G. C. Van Arsdol and Collingwood Schrieber, chief engineer of the Dominion government. Whether they will leave the boat at Kitselas and take to the line is not known here. In either case they will be here on or before Saturday. HAZELTON DOING WELL People Are Looking for Busy Winter When Proipector* Return J. E. Roerig returned from Hazelton yesterday and is very optimistic over the progress being made up the river. He states that business has been good up there and that all the people are well satisfied. They are looking for a brisk time this coming winter when the several hundred prospectors and land stakers now on the hills will return to town for a few months. The merchants have been buying heavily in anticipation of the rush. Their orders have been much larger than ever before. Speaking of the country Mr. Roerig said that it is looking fine. The garden stuff is now at its best and the people are cultivating everything. He looks for a big town in that vicinity with a large population on the farm lands.

The City Hall is being erected by the Skeena River Indian fishermen, and is a substantial structure with stately lines. This is to be painted and not hidden in evergreens. The other is the work of the French-Canadians and is to be comewhat elaborate in decoartion mottoes, portraits and so forth.
