'" \ ' '���W&i w,mi Muloek Before Cable Committee. Montreal, March 27.���The Star's London cable says:. Mr. Muloek, postmaster-general of Canada, gave evidence yesterday before the interdepartmental cable committee. The proceedings were private, but ifc is understood Mr. Muloek favored the expansion of a state-owned cable system by the construction of a government cable between Canada and Great Britain, also the acquisition of a line from Australia via Singapore aud Hong Kong. The latter extension would be of tlie, greatest possible advantage to Canada, as thereby Canada would, via a Pacific cable, be in direct communication with China and Japan, Englishmen Buying Horses. Chicago, March 28.���The Chicago horse market broke the record of receipts yesterday, there having arrived at the Dexter park amphitheater, Union stock yards, during the day 1097 horses in 114 cars, constituting the largest number ever received in one day. The highest record was Juno 13, 1898, when 1108 head arrived. A large number of the horses now being purchased in this market are for the English army. A significant fact is that a large proportion of the consignment consists of horses bought especially for English army officers, many of fche mounts' having been already selected especially for certain officers who prefer the American horse to any other. - Porto Rico Losing Laborers. San Juan, March 27.���The agents of fche company engaged in the construction of the railroad from Guayaquil to Quito, Equador, are in Porto Rico recruiting for laborers to work on this railroad. This, in connection .with-'"���'the departure yesterday of 399 emigrants for Hawaii and,400 more for Cuba to work injthe iron mines, is draining Porto Rico of the best laborers. The entire press of the island is objecting to this emigration. Planters cannot cultivate their lands owing to the lack of money, consequently there is no work to be had here. The authorities are taking no steps to prevent this emigration. Prospects Bright at Dawson. :" Seattle, March 27.���The steamship Humboldt,- from' Skagway, arrived in port this morning.

He also states that the late prevailing epidemic of disease among the In-' dians at Holy Cross mission and all points along the lower Yukon river is over. Those who have been iii aro rapidly recovering. He stopped- at a number of villages and found the natives fairly well supplied wifch provisions. The heaviest snow ever recorded is now in tho Yukon basin. ' There is considerable fear that Dawson may be inundated aud thousands of dollars' worth of damage done there when the snow melts.

THE HUDSON'S BAT STOEES BAKER STREET NELSON im^xxxx: . The Miner had a yellow streak yesterday. It was almost as bright as that developed by our esteemed friend, the. genial old gent, in his palmiest days. Should it happen that the rival railway companies have not patched . up their difficulties, the Nelson Miner will never forgive its own haste in tipping its hand before the victor was announced. British Columbia is about the only province in the Dominion that did not lose men through the preference of time-expired volun- teers- for some portion of South Africa. All British Columbia's men have elected to return to their own province. ■ ■ " ; The Nelson Miner says the Crow's Nest railway controversy is. now -all over but the shouting. This emboldens Nelson's eminent and fearless journal to observe that such preference as it had for the •parties to the dispute was all in favor of the. winner. The Midway Advance says Jim Hill and Messrs. Mackenzie and Mann have taken the troublesome Victoria, Vancouver & Eastern railway problem off the Dunsmuir government's hands. They will build the road and the government's obligations will be , restricted to lending assistance. It may inconvenience the owners of the. Nelson opera house to bring their premises within the requirements necessary for public safety, but sthis.. inconvenience is only secondary to that which would be experienced by patrons of the house should they attempt to hurriedly thread the intricacies of its exits in case of fire. The action of the license commissioners, in refusing the Church application for a hotel license at Erie, has stirred up quite a tempest in that peaceful little hamlet. "In fact the dissidents of the pjace seem, to have got together and framed a protest which has been forwarded to Nelson with fche signature of Alex Gorgettee attached. There is just one section' of the communication that deserves attention. It is that dealing with the hotel accommodation at Erie. If the only, hotel in the place is so noisy that people cannot sleep, and if the accommodation generally is so poor that it militates against the prosperity of the place, the license commissioners should be made aware of the fact. It is just as important that the accommodation afforded by persons seeking renewal of licenses should be inquired into, as ifc is that the premises and accommodations for which new licenses are sought should be inquired into. This is a matter which might receive the attention of the chief license inspector, so that reports would, go before the commissioners as to licensed premises upon which some reliance might be placed. The men who are boosting for Jim Hill's East Kootenay railway scheme now plead that the Crow's Nest Southern railway charter should be granted, because the Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company has conceded to the Canadian Pacific Railway Company the right to work some 3800 odd acres of coal lands which the railway company owns in the coal belt. Whether any such concession has been made is as yet very much in doubt, but assuming that ifc has, it is a matter which chiefly concerns the Canadian Pacific Railway Company and not the people of British Columbia. When the federal government settled the terms upon which 'the Crow's Nest Pass railway should be built, there was reserved for the Canadian Pacific Railway Company some 3800 odd acres of coal lands; and there was also reserved for the" benefit of the people of Canada some 50,000 acres of coal lands, such lands to be selected so that the people's reserve would comprise as good coal lands as any held by the coal company. It therefore becomes obvious that the people have greater interests in the East Kootenay coal .question . than are covered by any" concession to the Canadian Pacific Railway Company to work the few acres which ft possesses. First of all the people are interested in knowing whether these 50,000 acres of coal lands so reserved have been selected; and if selected, whether they comprise as good coal measures as any held by the Crow's Nest Pass Coal .Company. It may, be that the necessary selection has not yet been made; that, there are difficulties in making such selection, or that the coal company has been so active in prospecting the coal fields that it charges British ..Columbia smelters $4 75 per ton for coke running as high as 15 and 18 per cent ash. Against this Thomas Rogers, Brown & Co., Monadnock building, Chicago, quote first-class coke, low in sulphur and ash (less than 12 per cent ash) for $2 per net ton of 2000 pounds, f. o. b. cars at ovens. That this United States figure is nearer what the price should be is borne out by a former manager of the Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company, who has stated that in the United States he has sold coke in the cars as low as $1 per ton. All things considered, perhaps Mr. Jaffray may explain why his company extorts $4.75 per ton from British Columbia smelters for their coke supply, or why, when promising reductions, he cannot go stronger than 25-cents per ton. He cannot plead excessive freight rates, for the supplies required in the production of coke are practically nil, the chief cost being labor. There is a chance for the governments of British Columbia and of the Dominion to show some consideration for the miners and smelters of this province. Make the granting of the desired railway concession conditional upon more favorable-fuel rates for British Columbia smelters. looks like a shut out for the government's reserve selection. These are matters which very properly may be inquired into when the Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company is seeking fresh concessions in the form of a railway charter, and no such further concessions should be given until the people of Canada get what is coming to them out of the coal areas. There is ho reason to apprehend that, in return for the .Crow's Nest Southern railway charter, the Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company would not be both willing and able to sell coal to the Trail smelter at 25 cents less per ton than ifc charges at present. In fact it is just possible that even greater reductions could be made in the prices of both coal and coke before the British Columbia smelters would be placed upon the same basis with respect to their fuel supply from the East Kootenay coal fields as the smelters south of the international boundary line. When so much is heard about the patriotism of the Toronto gentlemen who compose the coal company, it is not amiss to note the prices which they charge the Brit ish Columbia smelters for coal and coke, and compare them with prices at which coal and coke are supplied to United States smelters by less patriotic coal companies. The Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company, . Because it is rumored that the Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company has agreed to allow fche Canadian Pacific company to work some 3800 acres-of railway company coal lands the Nelson Miner says no attention should be paid to those 50,000 acres of coal lands whicli the federal government is to select from the coal fields of East Kootenay and hold for the general good of the whole people.' The Miner's interest in any question begins and ends with the interest of private corporations, especially .with the corporations which pay. The Tribune may lose the .fight which ifc made in the hope of preserving the coal supply of East Kootenay, but it will -have the satisfaction of knowing that its course ' was consistent. In this respect it differs from the Miner: Ifc never wabbled, all round the question in its editorial columns, and then tried to square itself with the Canadian Pacific Railway Company by publishing fake communications signed by such newspaper veterans as " Canadian " or " True Blue," •_ The Tribune is pleased to announce that mayor Fletcher will take immediate action in the matter of the dangerous fire trap which does duty in Nelson for- an opera house. The report of fire chief Lillie, in condemning the building, served to bring matters to a head, and will doubtless result' in- Nelson securing a place of entertainment, wherein-the""patrons~will:7have"-a- fighting chance " for their lives in case of fire. The Tribune is: in receipt of a'' communication from a local social-; ist upon the subject of "Spcialibin as Related to Christianity," in which the writer undertakes to demonstrate that no such relationship exists.' The communication, howev'erris unsigned, an evidence of modesty quite unexpected in a wmteiv~who -seeks to correct- the mistakes'Christ made in his missionary work on earth, but nevertheless fatal to its chance of publication.

By his presence of mind conductor Harris Purple saved from ( death or severe injury 300 passengers on the Delaware, Lackawanna , and Western train which was wrecked recently at Portland, */ Pennsylvania. Engineer Lyman - Chase had died in his cab with the throttle wide open and the train rushing on at 75 miles an- hour. ���TThis train is one of the fastest on the road, and because of the unusual heavy travel was some minutes late. The engineer was endeavoring to make up.the. lost time. ' When he passed.Delaware Water Gap he was known to be alive, and was there instructed to take the east siding of ��� the switch at Portland, about 20 , miles ahead. -Engineer ���Chase was known as one of the safest' men on the road and never had an accident in his 12 years of service. Conductor Chase, knowing this, gave himself no alarm regarding the train. He noticed several times that the train -was going at an unusual rate of speed around curves and across bridges, but attributed this to the anxiety of the engineer to make up lost time. - As the train approached Portland conductor Purple knew that speed ��� should be slackened to make the siding.1 As it did not, he "signaled the engineer. Receiving no response ' he 'again signaled" the engineer.. . Again no blast of the whistle. . Fearing ."so'm^bingL^\yasJv^ongJti.e., rushed to the rear car to the valve of the safety brake. Just then he. heard the flying locomotive jump: the track at the ��� Portland switch.. Instantly conductor ��� Purple opened the valve, setting the air brakes along the'entire train. Even with', this powerful check, the momentum * was so great that the. train ran more- than 500 yards. The sudden application of the air brakes threw the passengers in heaps. The; screams of women and children who1 were more frightened jbhan hurt; rose in a chorus, but before any explanation could be offered thei train had come to a standstill. jCon-ji ductor Purple ran to the' locomotive to see what had happened and found} .engineer Chase in his cab, dead 'from heart' disease. Fireman Kirshiand was thrown from the cab into a mud bank and escaped serious injury...'. He told. Purple that just before he was thrown from the engine he saw Chase sitting in his cab with his hand on the throttle. He shouted to him as the engine jumped the track, but received no answer. He is satisfied that the engineer was dead before the switch was passed. The engine . hauling the train was of the Mogul; class and the fireman could not see the engineer unless he climbed out of his own cab to look for him. One of the employees pf the road, in speaking of conductor Purple's presence of mind in applying the air brakes, said: "If he had not pulled that valve there would have been a wreck with greater loss .of life than in any disaster in the history of the road. The air brakes saved the cars from telescoping. It steadied the train sufficiently to prevent its destruction. The pas- SAVINGS BANK DEPARTMENT: Interest allowed on doposits.

Wo think we'll stay and tight it out." A Boy's Vengeance. A thrilling tragedy startled the people of Naples a few days ago. It occurred in the criminal court where a young man named Giacomo Simeoli was being tried 1or murder, the charge being that he had killed Antonio Negrini, one of his^neighbors, in a dispute oyer cards. The court room was crowded with Ne- grini's friends,' and their scowls and muttered threats, while Simeoli's lawyer was pleading for him showed how intense was their hatred of the accused. At noon the court adjourned and, guarded oh all sides by policemen, Simeoli stepped-from the dock with the intention of returning to his cell. Hardly, however, had he taken a step before a crowd closed around him and he found his way blocked by angry men, who shook their fists at him, and by women' who spat in his face: Back the policemen thrust the infuriated mob, but in spite of them" a lad broke through their ranks and, reaching Simeoli, plunged a dagger into his heart. "Simeoli fell at once and a hasty examination showed that he could not recover. The murderer fled, but the pursuers were hot on,his track and speedily, captured him. -Being brought back to tliffcourt room, in which he had slain a defenceless- man in the presence of a judge, a horrified jury and many other- spectators, he was questioned as to his motive. He said calmly that the reason why he had killed-^ Simeoli . was because Simeoli had. killed his brother and he thought that it was his duty, to avenge hini. " lam 16 years old," he told the judge, "and my name is Giovanni Negrini." It is said that steps will be immediately taken to prevent persons in future from carrying concealed, weapons into a court room during the trial of criminal cases. SAVINOS BANK DEPARTMENT.

"Mr.. Carnegie," he said,- "is very generous indeed. I. commend him for his generosity; we all do."
