Last Friday the\nbids were opened for the making of\nother improvements. W. C. E. Koch\nwas awarded the contract for repairing 2J miles of the, old government\nroad, which connects with the newly\nbuilt portion, and a gang of men\nstarted In on the repairs this week\nunder Frank Provost. Mr. Koch is\nalso to construct the flames and dam\nfor thc new sawmill which tho com\npany is putting in. It will be of modern equipment and have a capacity\nof 10,000 feet a day. Part of the machinery has already arrived, while\nmen are engaged getting out 500,000\nfeet qf logs for the mill. The hauling\nof ore from thc mine also goes to Mr.\nKoch, who will be kepi, busy this\nwinter.\nTony Long got the contract for\nbuilding tho three milts of new road\nat this end. It commences 3,700 feet\neast of the bridge and runs down the\nsouth side of the creek to the C.P.R.\n\"Y\" switch, where the big ore chutes\nare to be built. A gang ot men start-\n! ed this morning cutting the right of\n] way at the upper end and grading\ncommences from the lower |>oint, Monday, under foreman J. Campbell.\n1 Tony goes to Nelson today to get\nmore men for the job and be hopes to\nget it done in five weeks. From end\nto end the highest grade in the road\nwill be 12 per cent, with an average\nof 10 per cent.\nWalter Clnu.rh is superintending\nthc building of thc telephone line from\nthe mine to the local offices, which\nwill be of great assistance. Large\nquantities of supplies, coal and rails\nhave been sent up to the mino of late\nand two new ore cars are now at the\nwharf ready to go up. All these improvements total up to a big round\nsum of money, but the company has\nin contemplation still further expenditures later on.\nAt the mine things arc in good\nshape and much work going on, The\nforce has been increased to GO men j\nand more arc to bo. put on. Half al\ndozen or more drifts arc being run\nand openings being made on the vein\nclean to tho end of the group. The\nlowest tunnel is iu upwards of 1200\nfeet and is expected to tap the ore\nchute any day. Ore is showing in\nall the other openings and large reserves aro ready for stopinjr. Six or\neight carloads are sacked ready for\nshipment, but lack of storage room\nprevents more being taken out. The\ngrade of the ore is very high and is\nwell maintained. The company will\nsink a 40-foot shaft close up to the\nSpeculator, owned by H.I. Kirk wood\nand T. Kilpatrick.on which the same\nvein is exposed, showing high grade\nore and native silver. The wagon\nroad Is also being extended as far up\nas 11 workings, which is well upon\nthe group. \u00bb\nThe Arlington mine is equipped\nwith substantial buildings and an\nabundance of tools and supplies and\nis being thoroughly and systematically developed, under the sii|>eiin-\ntendenco of \\V.

McGillivray and Shannon to\nthe Warner Miller syndicate, The\nNecpawa group consists of three\nclaims and issituated just to thc west\nof the Enterprise. It has a big,strong\nledge, r-xpo3p.il, with a fair showing\nof high grade, ore. The property Is I\none ofthe oldest and best known on\nthe creek and has shlppod a coupe I\nof carloads of ore. Three years ago I\nDr. Hell-Irving of Vancouver bonded\nthe Neepawa and succeeded in butchering the property, from the effects\nof which it has ever since suffered,\nAt present two men are sinking n 60 I\nfoot shaft under lease and arc taking\nout rich ore There are fine cabin**\non the property and it has connection\nwith the lake by way of the Enterprise road. Under the Miller syndicate, the Noepawa will be mado a\nfirst-class mine, while the advent of\nnew capital on the creek will do\nmuch towards reviving the camp.\nWARNER MILLER HERE\nACCOMPANIED IiV V.

McCuaig, of Montreal; _?.\nDinmore, tho lattcr's secretary; and\nP. II. Minarri, n noted mining engineer of Denver, Col. The party was\nmet at Nelson on Saturday by Percy\nDickinson, the resident manager of\nthe syndicate. Tho object of tho visit\nis to enable Mr. Miller to inspect thc\nvarious holdings of his people and tu\nreview tho extensive operations of\nthe past year. Col. JaB.McNn.Ught,\nwho Is well known in the Slocan, was\nto have accompanied the party, but\nwas prevented through lllness,so thev\naro going out to meet him at Spokane on Saturday, hold a meeting-\nand then all return here.\nOn Monday, thc party visited the\nNoonday, on thc Ualcn-a Farm, ki\nwhich the syndicate own the controlling interest, and also the Galena,\nMines adjoining. Next clay they,\nwith the exception of Mr. Miller, win-\nwas slightly indisposed, went up to\nthe Kilo group, on the first north\nfork Lemon There the syndicate\nown 28 claims and two mill sites, tho\nwhole being looked upon as a very\nvaluable asset. Then a visit of inspection to thc Smuggler, at thc head\nif Ten Mile, where 18 claims aro\nheld, will conclude the main object\nof the trip. The Smuggler is at\npresent the scene of much activity\nand has a tine showing of ore in ail\ntiie workings. It runs from 200 oz\nin the second grade ore to upwards\not 2,000 oz. in thc first grade. Last\nweek the syndicate added the Necpawa, Ten Mile, to their possessions*\nMr. Dickinson, tlie local manager.\nis averse to newspaper notoriety for\nhis operations, lie is content to let\nresults spenk for themselves. His\npeople arc not investing their money\nfor pleasure, but to make money, and\ntheir operations are conducted on\nstraight business principles. Thoy\nhave invested here and expended in\ndevelopment several hundred thousand dollars and the end is not yet\nby any means. Mr. Dickinson naturally feels elated at having his\nprincipals here, as the various properties are in elegant shape. Before\nthc party are through with their\nvisit, they will have grasped thoroughly the situation ot the camp and\ngleaned an idea of its great mineral\nresources.\nMr. McCuaig is known to almost\neveryone, by reputation at least, lie\nis the great company promoter of\nCanada and his success has been\nphenomenal. Thc Payne and Ke-\npublic may be cited as two instances\nof the magnitude of his dotations.\nLast month the several properties ho\nis connected with paid in dividends\n$208,000, which is a sufficient guarantee of thegenuinencssof hraininir.g\nschemes. This is his fir t extended\nvisit to the lower lake camp, but it\nwill not be his last, and the impress\nof his observations will be manifested\nin due time. Tlie camp will not lose\nby any means through his visit. Mr.\nMciuud has a reputation second to\nnone iu the state he hails from and is\nthoroughly conversant with every\ndetail of modern mining and milling.\nSo far us the ex Senator is concerned,\nhe is too well known throughout\nAmerica to require notice through\nthis one-horse sheet. Financially and\nsocially he is a man of mark, and\nthe great wealth he controls for the\nfurtherance of his operations in the\ncamp place him at once in the front\nrank. With him, the present is a\ntime of development and he can complacently await the moment of production and dividends.\nSlocan is pleased to have Mr. Miller\nand his associates come and may\ntheir shadows never grow lc6s.\nnigh 8m4\u00ab Or*.\nN.

The Chinese attacked the\nlegations on the night of July 10,\nbut were led into a trap by the\nAmericans and British and 1000\nkilled. Afterwards they continued\nbombarding the legations more\nfreely.\nAmong the Chinese killed was\nGeneral Ma. The legations were\nsubsequently attacked with constantly increasing fury. These advices were brought from Pekin by a\ncourier.\nNew York, July 30.\u2014The Commercial Cable company sends out\nthe following notice. \"We are advised that communication between\nShanghai and Chefoo is restored.\"\nHol41i( Thriii a. Hostage*\nLondon, July 30.\u2014The latest\nnews from the far east seems consistent \u00abith the theory that the Chinese government has the foreign\nministers alive, but means to treat\nthem as hostages, while the stories\nof massacre relate to other members of the foreign colony in Pekin.\nChinese officialdom, it is alleged,\nopenly speak of the ministers as\nhostages, whose fate depends upon\nthe decision of the powers in relation to the threatened advance on\nPekin.\nReports are multiplying that a\nnumber of foreigners were alive lo\na late date. Thus, Rome reports\nthat the propaganda fide have been\nassured of the safety of Bishop Fa-\nvina, while a telegram from Nankin\ninforms his family that Prince Cae-\ntani, of the Italian legation, is alive\nNo confirmation of the various\nfavorable statements, however, is\nfor thcoming from really independent sources.\nA telegram from Shanghai re-\np orts, on the authority of a Briton\nwho had been tor years in the service of the viceroy of Nankin, that\nprior to the framing ot the Yang\nTse agreement with the consuls the\nviceroy suggested Anglo-Chinese\noccupation ofthe Yang Tse defenses,\nbut Great Britain declined. It is\nreported at Shanghai that fie pow-\neis have again proposed, through\nLi Hung Chang, the peaceful surra nder of the Woo Sung forts and\nKianguan arsenal, but that the Chine se regard the proposal as a\nbreach ot the existing agreement.\nDirect News of Legation*.\nWashington, July 30.

This action followed directly after the most desperate battle ot the entire revolution, in which\nthe losses on each side were very\nheavy.\nOwing, it is believed, to some\nmisundeistanding of the terms of\nthe armistice brought about by the\nAmerican, the English and the\nFrench consuls, the insurgents suddenly renewed their attacks upon\nthe suburbs of Panama. The fighting lasted it hours. The rebel\ntroops made charge after charge\nupon the trenches of the government troops, pushing forward with\na recklessness approaching closely\nto madness. These desperate assaults were kept up all night long,\nand were met with equally brave\nresistance by the regulars. In one\nof the entrenchments, defended by\na detachment composed entirely of\nyoung men from this city, nearly\nevery one of the defenders was\neither killed or badly wounded.\nThe tide of battle was turned by\nthe arrival of an express train from\nColon with eight hundred fresh\ntroops to reinforce the government,\nand ihe rebels withdrew.\nDead and dying men were lying\nalong the Caledonia road beyond\nthe railroad bridge for half a mile,\nsometimes scattered a few feet\napart and more often in heaps\nclosely packed together. How-\nmany were killed during the night\nis not yet known, but the number\nwill reach into the hundreds. The\nexact loss may never be known, lor\nmany of the wounded men crawled\ninto tbe way thickets. As quickly\nas possible the Red Cross corps,\naided by the ambulance corps ofthe\nBritish cruiser Leander, began\ngathering up and attending to the\nwounded. Cartload after cartload\not corpses were gathered together\nand cremated.\nDr. Carlos Mendoza, secretary-\ngeneral of the revolutionary government, went to the old station ofthe\nPanama railroad under a flag of\ntruce at noon.

Under the\nterms of this treaty, the surrender\nof the insurgents is complete. They\nagreed to deliver up all arms, ammunition and ships in their possession.

According to international law,nations\ncan fight, but they cannot be at war\nunless they comply with certain formalities\" One of these is that the\nambassadors of each party must ask\nfor, or be tendered, their passports.\nNeither the ministers at Pekin nor\nthe Chinese government have complied with this formality. The ministers have been too busily engaged\notherwise\u2014namely, in rifle practice\u2014to ask for the precious documents, and the tsung li yamen may\nexplain the legations are too densely\nsurrounded by a mob of belligerent\nBoxers to admit of their tendering\nthese documents to the ministers.\nIt the latter should have been murdered, they never will get these\npassports and there will be a hiatus\nin the proceedings.\nFor these reasons, there is no\nwar, although there is considerable\nshooting in progress and corpses\nare numerous on the banks of the\nPeiho river.\nLady Sarah Wllav-a Welcome*- Hom\u00ab\nLondon, July 27.\u2014Among the\narrivals from South Africa today\nwere the Duke of Marlborough and\nLady Sarah Wilson.

The\nallied powers have captured the\nTaku forts, bombarded and half\nruined Tien Tsin and landed large\nforces on Chinese soil, but they are\nnot at war with China. The Chinese ambassadors remain al Washington and at the European capitals, and diplomatic intercourse with\nthem is not interrupted, while the\nnations to which they are accredited\nare pbuhdlng Chinese cities to\npieces and are rushing more troops\nto tbe scene. These Chinese ambassadors do nol complain of the\ninjury to their official feelings, nor\nask for their passports,and thc governments do not offer the passports.\nWhile Great Britain is righting the\nChinese, it is actually necessary to\nintroduce a special bill in parliament\nto prevent the queen's subjects from\nA Va\nTien Tsin is the only confirmation\npossible of tbe assurance\", of their\nsafety.\nIt is just a coincidence of course,\nbut since the peace conference assembled this sin-cursed world has\nheard nothing but war and rumors\nof war.\u2014Toronto Telegram,\nThe statistician Mulhall, la an\narticle in the North American Review, estimates the population of\nthe United State.-, at 76,200,000.\nThis is tbe lowest estimate, others\nrunning over 77,000,000.
