On Mr. Welch's return tho\nnames of the successful sub-contractors will be announced.\nMay Hurry Vancouver Line\nThe rapidity with which the\n\u2022ilS-mile gap la to be finished has\na direct bearing on the construction to Vancouver as the Grand\nTrunk Pacific has agreed to\nfinish the main line before undertaking tbe construction of Its\nproposed branch line from Fort\nGeorge to this city.

Toronto- Ont\nMILLION COAL\nMINERS INVOLVED\nBritish   Unions  Have  Strike   Fund  of\nTen Millions and May Fight\nto Finish.\nLONDON, Jan. 18.\u2014A Bpecial conference of the Miners' Federation of\nGreat Britain assembled today in Birmingham to canvass the vote cast by\nthe membership last week on the\nstrike proposition. The outlook is\ncausing uneasiness.in many quarters,\nfor the belief prevails tnat the count\nwill show an overwhelming majority\nin favor of the stoppage or work. The\nleaders of the miners' organization\ncontinue to voice tneir opposition, but\nthe rank and file of the membership\nis believed; to favor extreme measures to enforce their demands and the\norganization itself will be obliged to\nabide by the vote of the men.\nA general strike or the coal miners\nwill mean the most serious industrial\ndisturbance that the United Kingdom\nhas experienced since the dispute in\nthe engineering trades nearly a quarter of a century ago. The total number of men employed in and about the\ncoal mines exceeds 1,000,000. The\ntotal output of the mines amounts to\nabout 725,000 tons a day. It Is calculated that there is about three\nweeks' supply of coal In stock.\nThe miners are in a better condition\nnow to engage in a finish fight than\nthey ever were before. Their organization is one of the strongest labor\nbodies in the country both financially\nand numerically. The reserve fund of\nthe federation at the present time is\nbelieved to amount to $10,000,000 or\nmore.    What  the miners  are capable\nof when they get their backs to the\nwall was shown in 1893, when 250,000\nof them laid down their picks and\nshovels and remained tn idleness for\n17 weeks rather than submit to a 25\nper cent reduction in their wages although they had nothing like the accumulated funds they have now.\nThe demand of the men for a minimum wage Is practically the sole\npoint at Issue. The mine owners are\na unit in their opposition to the establishment of a minimum wage. They\nargue that it would be manifestly unjust to ask an employer to pay a minimum wage to a man, irrespective to\nhis ability or disposition to perform\na fair day's work.\nThe truth of the mine owners' contention in regards to the injustice of\ntiie minimum wage is acknowledged in\na measure by the miners, and in this\nIs to he found the one ray of hope\nthat a general strike may be averted.\nThe miners have suggested the setting up of a board or commission in\neach district for dealing with exceptional cases, such us those of men\nwhose ago or infirmities disqualify\nthem from performing an average\nday's labor and who therefore might\nbe employed nt a wage below the established minimum.\nTWO YEARS MORE WILL\nSEE  LINE TO COAST\nTORONTO Jan. 18\u2014Sir William\nMackenzie has reached Toronto on his\nreturn from a month in Europe on\nwhat he termed a pleasure trip.

In reply\nto a request for an expression of\nopinion on tbe guilt of the McNamaras and their responsibility In the\neyes of fellow unionists, Mr. Fels. who\nis professedly of socialistic sympathies, dictated a statement which\nsubstantially argues partial justification for the famous dynamiters and\nplaced them as \"victims of a Bystem\nrather than common murderers.\" Mr\nFels said:\n\"My opinion Is that the McNamara\nbrothers were obsessed as other murderers are obsessed with the Idea tbat\nthere Is a distinct class consciousness\nin this country and that the monopolists and special privilege men are in\nopposition to the laboring man nnd\ntherefore his deadly enemy. Such\nmen as the McNamaraa reasoned that\nmonopolists aro banded together to\niipe labor at the cheapest rate it can\nhe bought at and at as long hours as\nit will stand and keep ns large a percentage of laborers out of work as\nwill depreciate wages.

Although\nNelson is no longer the official headquarters of the association, Us interests are still closely allied with those\nof th\u00a9 lumber manufacturers, the delegates are familiar figures on its\nstreets and bonds of the closest friendship still unite the commercial com\nmunity of Nelson with those who are\ndirecting what is still, and what is\nlikely to remain for many years to\ncome, one of the leading industries\nof the interior of British Columbia.\nLumbermen are pioneers of development, and the lumber industry Ib of\nvast importance to the continued prosperity of the interior. No other industry pays a larger proportion of its\nworking expenses in wages, or puts a\ngreater proportion into local circulation for supplies. With the welfare of\nthe lumber Industry the prosperity of\nNelBon and the entire interior Is closely connected and self-interest as well\nas goodwill prompt the feeling of\nsympathy with which the fortunes of\nthe association are regarded.\nIt Is appropriate that Nelson, which\nIs, the commercial centre of the district in which a large proportion of\ntbe lumber mills are located, should\nbe, occasionally at least, the place of\nmeeting of the lumber manufacturers.\nSentiment and convenience unite to\nmake Its selection desirable, and nowhere are the lumber manufacturers\nmore welcome.

The sentences of ten years\nin the penitentiary aud twenty lashes\nupon a prisoner convicted of robbery\nwith violence, and of fifteen years and\nthirty lashes upon other prisoners\nguilty of similar offences may look\nEevere, but they contain a salutary lesson of which Vancouver has been\nmuch in need.\nPolicemen cannot be ubiquitous, and\nno police force can be sufficiently numerous lo assure a city against the\npossibility of crimes being committed\nby desperadoes who prey upon law-\niibiding citizens, hut when it is known\nthat no effort and no expense will be\nspared in securing the apprehension\nof criminals and that retribution Ib\nswift and severe it becomes apparent\neven to the most hardened offender\nthat the game is not worth the candle,\nand an epidemic of hold-ups and robbery with violence Buch as Vancouver\nhas lately experienced dies a speedy\ndeath.\nProm the earliest days the Canadian\nwest haB enjoyed a reputation for the\nenforcement of law and order, and few\nwill criticize the Vancouver magistrate for his determination to do his\npart in maintaining the tradition. Canada is an uncongenial soil for the ruffian with the revolver and for the\nburglar who uses dynamite as his\nstock in trade, and the thugs who\nhaunt Vancouver streets re-ilize that\nlact better today.

B .Pur-\ncell, superintendent of the company's\nRossland mines, took charge of the\nparty, which was there joined by\nLewis Stockett, general manager of\nthe Hosmer mines, and P. deLautour\nof the water branch of the provincial\ndepartment of lands, and an hour and\na half was spent underground. To\nstand 2,000 feet beneath the surface,\nin the heart of Red mountain, which\nhas yielded to date $50,000 000 of ore,\nwas a new experience to the majority\nof the visitors, and the avenues of\nhuge timbers in some of the old stopes\nof the historic War Eagle now a part\nof the Centre Star, spoke eloquently\nof former days. Present stopes of the\nCentre Star, in which rounds of holes\nwere being drilled, were in some cases\n50 feet wide. The party ascended and\ndescended laddered stopes, took joy\nrides In trains of electric cars, and\nfinally returning to the surface, inspected the largest hoist in British\nColumbia. The only untoward circumstance of the visit of inspection arose\nfrom nature not having designed the\nworthy president of the associated\nboards for confinement in any ordinary suit of overalls. Though a jumper was found that partially enveloped\nPresident Starkey's ample form above\nthe waist line, the only recourse .for\nnether protection was a capacious\nskirt. This fearful and wonderful costume exacted the charmed admiration\nof all beholders while it lasted, but\nnot lending Itself to feats of ladder\nclimbing, was reluctantly abandoned\nearly In the enterprise and was shed\nsomewhere ln the sixth level. When\nthe party finally returned to the mine\noffices and Inspected the three-dimension diagram of the workings, consisting of 16 layers of glaBs superimposed,\neach a myriad of red tracings of tunnels, stopes and diamond drilling, the\nexact spot where the skirt still reposed was officially recognized. President Starkey, in a neat speech, expressed to Messrs. Stewart and Pur-\ncell the thanks of the associated\nboards for the pleasant and Instructive afternoon.\nThe party of inspection included,\nbesides those already mentioned, C.\nF. McHardy W. G.

The evening\nwas a free and easy one, parties of the\ndelegates being first escorted ahout\nthe city to various events of Interest,\nand later meeting at the club. A\nmusical evening followed, culminating\nIn a midnight lunch. The wee hours\nhad been sadly encroached upon when\nfinally \"Auld Lang Syne\" brought the\nlong and immensely enjoyed entertainment to a close.\nThe farewell at the station as last\nevening's train drew out was vociferous and sincere, both on the part of\nHip kindly hosts and of the departing\nguestB,\nMr. Starkey brought back to Nelson\nwith him a handsome cane which wi\npresented  to him  by  Mr.  Deschamps\n-it an Informal little gathering at the\nRossland club on Tuesday   light\nTUB >\\        Is increasing enormously\n\\.

A number\nof associations were formed during the\npast year and several applications not\ndealt with were now on file. Affiliation with these new associations'imposed a financial burden on the British Columbia association which it will\nbe the duty of the incoming board of\ndirectors to provide for. It would appear that the government would be\nasked to make a larger grant for the\npromotion of the poultry industry. In\nsupport of the request from the association it can be pointed out that the\nproduction of eggs and other poultry\nproducts has doubled within the past\nyear.\nAlthough organized within the past\nyear, Trail association was able to\nhold a very successful winter show\nwith a good display of exhibits. This\nassociation has proved an active one\nand a vote of thanks was passed by\nthe executive of the British Columbia\nassociation for the loyal support given\nby this Infant association in forward\ning so large a list of members to the\nprovincial association.\nPOWER BUSINESS\nLEGAL M0N0PLY\n\u25a0 JANUARY  VHITE SALE\nA Splendid Showing of Ladies9 Undermuslins\nNow is the time to buy your whitewear, now when everything is\nnew and fresh.

IS\u2014Representatives of the Niagara Falls electric power companies were heard today by the\nhouse foreign affairs committee upon\nthe proposed regulations for the future use of water for generating electricity.\nThe cheapness of power in Canada\nwas emphasized by Gen. Francis V.\nGreen of the Ontario Power Co. Gen.\nGreen's company sells power to the\nhydro-electric commission of nOtario\nfor $9.40 per horse power while the\nsame power is relailed by the company at $25 in Rochester. The cheap\nCanadian power was made possible by\nthe governmental distribution   he said.\nThe power manufacturers declared\nthat power distribution must be a\n\"legalized monopoly\" and urged powers that would permit the development\nto the full extent of the power and the\nImportation of Canadian power under\nproper regulations.\nR. G. Brown, attorney for the Niagara\ncompany, stated that the owners of\npower rights were legally entitled to\nexercise water power rights to their\nfull extent even though it took all the\nwater from the falls. Representative\nBartholdt of Missouri retorted that the\npeople were more interested in saving\nthe falls than In considering the lights\nof power companies.\nTiie foreign affairs committee is considering prospective legislation under\nthe international treaty to succeed the\nBurton law which will expire In March\nO. E. Fleming of Windsor, Ont., rep\nresenting a power company, said that\nthe treaty itself as the law would per\nmit the unlimited exploitation of Canadian power. The Burton law limits\nthe importation to 160,000 horse power.\ndr. maloney will be\nChoice in south Renfrew\n'OTTAWA, Jan. 17.\u2014Considerable interest\nattaches Itself to the Conservative convention in South Renfrew to bo held nn\nFriday, at which a candidate will be\nchosen to oppose Hon.

L. McCulloch would consist of five Howe\ntruss spans, each 1H0 feet long:, This\nwould cover the water from bank to\nbank. The brldgo would boa wooden\nstructure, IS feet in width and would\nbe built on piles, upon which would\nbe erected piers.\nTiie approach from Vernon street\nwould be about 1.800 feot in length lim'\nwould he erected on 52-foot piles driven 15 feet In the ground. It would be\nbuilt over the C. P. R. track in accordance with the regulations of the board\nof railway commissioners which prevent a crossing at grade.\nThe plans outlined by Mr. McCulloch are for the cheapest style of\nbridge which would be suitable for the\nlocation.

M.   P.  for    Hnnley,\nspoke ln favor of conciliation and\navoidance of a strike, but the federation executive, which remained In secret session until late tonight, reported that it was unable to agree on what\npolicy to recommend and adjourned\nuntil tomorrow. Opinions are very\nmuch divided regarding the situation.\nGeorge Nlcholl Barnes, a labor member of parliament, thinks, looking at\nthe result of the ballot, that a strike\nis inevitable unless the minimum wage\nis conceded. Arthur Henderson, labor\nmember for Durham, expressed his\nopinion as not being satisfied. He\nhoped the leaders would exert themselves to prevent a strike. Cessation\nof work In the mines would be madness. K<\nIt is stated tbat the South Wales\nminers are obdurate, but Chairman\nGriffiths of the Soutli Wales Coal\nOwners' association declares that to\ngrant a minimum wage would be to\nwipe out the profits and close down\n75 per cent of the collieries. Mr.\nDeakln, a member of (he South Wales\nconciliation board says that 40 collieries in South Wales are already losing money.\nTiie representatives of 1,000 South\nYorkshire collieries surfacemen have\ndecided to ballot on the Question of\nwhether they shall strike for eight\nhours and a minimum wage.\nFRANCE READY TO\nOCCUPY MOROCCO\n\u25a0xpendlture  This  Year  of   Occupation\nby  Army  Will  be  Eighteen   Million Dollars\nPARIS, Jan.
