Jn September,\n1902, he met chancellor von Buelow ln\nBerlin, who spoke of the agreement as a\nnew guarantee of peace.

Now the owners of the\nshipping mines harve made arraugements\nfor ttie treatment of their ore. They will\nship all their ore to Hamilton, Ant., to be\nantel-wl. There Is only one mine that has\nnot enterred Into this arrangement, and that\nIs the Nlpbwlng mine. All the outers have\nmade arrangements with the Hamilton\npeople, who guarantee to treat the ore as\nore should be treated; and that Is, give\nthe mine owners the worth not only of the '\nsilver but all the otihep minerals It may\ncontain. Shipments to the Hamilton smelter will commence ln about six weeks, and\nIn the meantime the ore being mined Is\nbeing sacked to be ready when the time\ncornea. The NiplBslng mine wlll continue\nshipping ore to the New Jersey smelter for\ntreatment for the owners of the mine are\npairt owners of the Jrsey smelter. It may\nbe stated that within tne last two weeks\nthe Nt pissing -nine has shipped to New\nJersey eight cars or ore, estimated at '.M0\ntons.   The money value of this is placed at\nWhat will be the ore output from Cobalt\nthis season. I got one of the shipping mine\nowners to malte a close calculation as to\nhow many tons would be sent to Hamilton\nup to say Jan. 1,1907. The man Is not* d for\nhis acciuracy and as he tlgures his own\nbusiness down line, he may be taken as a\npretty good Judge of what wHl go out.

She covered the\nmile and a quarter in 2.05 3-5, within 1-5\nof a second of the record tor the race\nand in the gamest ot drives, under whip\nand Bpttr, nosed out the stout-hearted\nDandelion in the run through the\nstretch.\nTwo lengths behind came The Picket,\nwho, two years ago carried his colors to\nvictory in lite same stake against the\nmighty Irish Lad and Henuls, and last\n<t all was Delhi, the winner ot the\nlassie event a year ago. Between the\nllrst and last, It was as evenly a balanced Meld of thoroughbreds as ever\nlaced the starter in a great event.\nTokalon was at-25s while Dandelion\nwas favored by a big play at Is, and\nMerry Lark who finished fifth carried\nthe tal\/jnts' money at 3s. Half a dozen,\nothers were backed for thousands, and\nTokalon herself, though ber price varied little, was not by any means disregarded. Roseben, the Johnson Bprln-\nler. was a factor ln the race for he took;\nthe lead In the flrat hair, and carried\nthe others at a terrific clip the full mile,\nwith Dandelion ever at his side. When\nRoseben's bolt was shot, the Hamburg\ncolt, game as hils mighty sire, but lacking that brilliant turn of speed, came\nupon the inner rall\u201e and. It seemed aa\nthough the race was his. Then Tokalon,\nwith swinging stride that made Tammany the greatest of racers ln his day,\nbroke through the line ln front, and\npushed he nose against the leader's\nwithers. Full half a iurlong their heads\nrose and fell together, and then Inch by\ninch the little mare drew up and closed\nthe space between them. A bound or\ntwo from the wire, she showed ln front,\nand they crossed together like a team\ndriven to the last breath.\nDoubtless there were 30,01)0 persons\nwithin the gates of Gravesend wlc u the\ntrumpet sounded for the Brooklyn, and\nthe classic event was never run ou a\nliner dny. Fair skies favored tlie Brooklyn Jockey club for the event made famous almost 20 years ago, when Dry Mon-\nopoie. Blue Wing, and Hidalgo Hashed\npast the judges. Had The Picket been\ncloser up, today's Brooklyn would have\nbeen a duplication ot that nev,er-to-be\nforgotten battle.\nSTRIKE-BniEAKERS WON OVER\nActivity of Strikers' Pickets Defeats\nMove of Mine Operators.\nStubenvlUe, Ohio, May 21.\u2014Out of 41)\nnon-union miners brought in to work In\ntho mines ot the United States Coal\ncompany today, only eight reached the\nmines, the others being persuaded or\nfrightened off by the strikers' pickets.\nIt was stated tonight that au attempt to\nrun the mines would be made tomorrow.\nA dozen strike-breakers were taken from\na train here today and won over to the\nunion.

G. W. Dean,\ntook occasion to make some comment\nupon certain features of the reports of\nthe recent Methodist conference thai-\nappeared in these columns. With Rev.\nMr. Dean's remarks we have no fault to\nHnd. They were made in the kindly,\nbroadminded spirit that has characterized his pastorate ln Nelson, and we\nfeet sure Uiat he felt some reference to\nthe subject was in order.\nBut they do call for some explanation\nupon our part. In the first place we\nmay say that our Victoria correspondent\nwas instructed to report the proceedings\nof conference briefly from day to day,\nour object being to keep those of our\nreaders who were Interested In the pio-\nceedings properly informed ss to Vhat\nwas doing at tbls Important annual\nmeeting of the representatives of tbe\nMethodist church ln British Columbia.\nWe could not, of course, know what was\ncoming up and we were only actuated\nIn thla matter by a desire to fulfil our\nmission aa news purveyors satisfactor\nily.\nThe reports received were accepted in\ngood faith and published as fair summaries of the proceedings. In the course\nof these reports mention was made of\ntwo cases of an unpleasant nature, and\nit Is because of the publicity given these\ncases that fault has been found with\nThe Daily News.\nAs we have already remarked, the reports were -accepted in good faith, and\nwhilst reference was made therein to\nmatters of an unpleasant nature, the assumption was that these matters had\nbeen made public through the proceedings of conference and that publication\nof the facts was In order. Day after\nday newspapers, that cannot by any\nstretch of imagination be termed \"yellow,\" have to give publicity to matters\nthat, to put it mildly, are unpleasant,\nand occasion annoyance and even pain to\nmany people. As a rule this sort of\nthing is unavoidable, and, on the whole,\nwe believe, proves beneficial to the community at large.\nSo far as the cases dealt with ln The\nDaily News are concerned, the reports\npublished were, we bad every reason to\nbelieve, plain statements of fact, and no\neffort was made to add any touch of\nsensationalism to the reports\nIt has been objected with regard to\none of the oases of local Interest, that\nat the time when It formed the subject\nof local Investigation no mention was\nmade of it In The Dally News and that\ntherefore no mention should have been\nmade of lt when It came before the conference at Victoria This Is not a tenable position.

When\nthe case was referred to Victoria nnd,\nas we assumed, was' taken up In conference at which press representatives were\npresent, it was no longer possible for\nThe Daily News to prevent publicity being given the facts and that being the\nease we handled the story as we should\nhandle any other story of similar import\nemanating from any part of Uie world.\nThat this course is in line with the\nbest practice we have every reason to\nbelieve, ami our views on this point are\nstrengthened hy a report we find in the\n\"Ecclesiastical intelligence\" of the last\ncopy of the London Times to hand,\nwhich wads:\nThe bishop of Llamlan* presided last\nweek over the consistory court at Llan-\nflan\", when charges of being under the\ninfluence ol drink during Divine service,\nof habitually Indulging to exesss in intoxicating liquors, and of being frequently ln a state of drunkenness were\npreferred against the Rev. Richard\nJones, rector of Bedwellty, Mon. The\ndefendant, who consented to sentence\nwitfjuut further proceedings, was deprived of his benefice.\nin reference to the other case, that of\nRev. W. J. Stone, .we have reason to believe that details were sent out to the\npiess that did not emanate from the conference and should not have appeared in\nthe reports of the proceedings. We have\nbeen notified by the solicitors for Mr.\nStone that the reports published by it\ncontained statements without foundation and that it ts untrue In fact that\nany petition was lodged to request him\nto attend (conference) and defend hlm-\nseU from the charges mentioned In our\ni-epoHs.\nWe have taken stops to thoroughly In-\nvei.tlgote this matMr and stand prepared to make lull and ample retraction\nof nny ialae statements we may have\nbeen misled Into making, it upon enquiry we find Uiat our correspondent haB\nbeeu guilty of misrepresentation or exaggeration. \t\nDisfranchising for a term of years\nthose who fall to vote would greatly\nlessen the evil effect ot at least one of\nthe bad Influences In public life, remarks the Toronto Olobo.

In I'hfs scheme all previous units\nwere abandon td, and In order 'to give It\nan extremely International character, the\nsbandaid of length was based upon ttie\nlength of a quadm-nt of the eart-h'-s meridian. The ten mllllomih' of this length\n\u2022was called the metre, and on tilils unit, together with Who maximum density of waiter, the whole system of weights and\nmeasures waa built up, all subdivisions\nand multiples of the shmda*d unit, accord-\nlug to Want's proposal, being decimally\nconnected.\nin order to carry out UiIb scheme of the\nacademy, Delambio und Mechalii, two able\nmathemaiielans und distinguished \u00abJien-\ntufts, uudei'touk to measure an are on the\nefmnfllVs   surface,   from   whloh-   Hie   total\nwhloh-   Hie\nof a meridian could\nH-n-gth of the quadrant of a meridian cuutu\nbe calculated.

On\ncross-examination tho accused stuck to\nhis version of the affair and his evidence\nin chief did not appear to be materially\nshaken. Dr. Walkem, formerly of Fernie, but now residing ln Vancouver,\ngave some testimony conflicting with\nthat given by Dr. Hlgglns, as to the\ncause of the wound In the dead man's\nthroat, and as to the conclusions drawn\nfrom the slight exudation or discharge\nof blood from the wound ln the abdomen.\nThe proceedings of the evening session\nof tho court are published under another\nheading in this issue.\nWhen the court opened at ld o'lock\nyesterday morning, R. M. Macdonald, representing the crown asked for the\ncourt's direction as to serving notice on\nthe bondsmen in Rex. vs. p. Cisco, Bruno, iDescernau and I. Cisco, charged, the\n| Bret with theft from the C. N. P. Coal\nCo., and the first and the others with\nconspiracy to defraud the same company, against whom the grand Jury had\nreturned true bills, and who did not\nanswer, having lt ls said, fled the country. Notice of motion calling on the\nseveral bondsmen, who all reside ln Fernle, to show 'cause \"why the ball gives\nshould not be forfeited to the crown,\nwill be served at once, returnable on a\nday fixed- by the ourt.\nMr. McAnn called John Lawson, hotel\nkeeper of Morrlssey, a witness on the\nindictment, but not called previously.\nMr. Taylor objected that the crown's\noase was closed, but the court remarked\nthat counsel urgently asked on Saturday that all witnesses on the Indictment should be called and he could not\ntake a different position now, Lawson\nsaid that he and George Romano were in\nhis houae, the Western hotel, on the\nnight ln question and heard the shooting; he went to the door and saw Uu\nflash of one shot, the last. Later he\nwont over and saw the body lying on Uie\nTo Mr. Ross he said he thought the\ndeceased was Inclined to be quarrelsome\nwhon In liquor. Ho had said that he did\nnot want to see the deceased In bis barroom for that reason. Ho. i had had\ntrouble with Cozza on one occasion.\nMr. McAnn then announced the closing of the case for the prosecution.\nIn a brief opening address to too\nJnry Mr. Ross said that the defence\nwould prove that the accused had played ths port of a peacemaker and only!\ndraw his weapon ln self defence . That\nIn place ot the accused chasing the deceased, and killing him, the defence\nwould show that the reverse was the\ncow and that the accused only killed\nthe deceased finally when he had to do\nso to save himself. The defence would\nalso put the accused ln the box and let\nhim tell him own setory. Medical testimony conflicting with that offered by the\ncrown would also be offered.\n' W. W. Walkem, M.D., said that he\nmade an examination of Costa's body\nAve days after death and after the postmortem. Referring to the mark on the;\nthroat mentioned by Dr. Hlgglns as ay\nprobable bullet wound, the witness sold\nIt was not a wound at all and certainly\nnot a. bullet wound \"unless a bullet can\ngo around a oorner.\" The Inference the!\nwitness drew from the-mark on the]\nthroat was that It was likely mode by the\ncollar button. The wound' tn the groin!\nwas made very shortly betore the fatal\nwound In the head. The .two shotsi\nwhich caused these two wounds were\ntired olose together.  From- the quantity\nof blood said to have been found on the\nshirt of the deceased he travelled\nonly.\na very short distance after he got this\nparticular wound. The more he moved;\nthe more the blood would flow. As to:\nthe position of the deceased whan the,\nwound ln the abdomen was -made, the;\nwitness thought he was possibly slightly\nturning and leaning over. Doctor said\nhe was particularly struck with \"*the\nmuscular development of the deceased.\n\"He was a young Sandow,\" said the witness. The doctor had examined the accused shortly < after the, shooting and!\nfound some bruises on him, notably\nsome on the knees. |\nThe-doctor objected rather strongly:\nto Mr. McAnn's first question on crossr\nexamination. He was ln the witness box\nagainst his will, and did not want to be\nInsulted. He differed from Dr. Hlgglns\nsa to the length ot the wound in the\ndead man's throat and as to what caused\nIt. There was no resemblance between\nthe mark on the throat and the wound\nIn ths abdomen.\nIn answer to a Question hy foreman\nWelbK the doctor, sold that the pressure df the underclothing would not o\u00bbi\nvent the discharge of blood from al\nwound such as here under consideration\nwhero the founded man was moving\nabout.\nDr. W. O. Rose, upon being told what\nDr. Hlgglns has'previously testified to\nas to the amount of blood found on the\nshirt of the deceased from the wound\nIn ths abdomen, said that In his opinion\nthe wound In question, must have Immediately antedated the death of or the\nserious Injury of the deceased. ,'-..\n. J.' W. Spauldlng, photographor af Fernie,. verllied some recently taken photo-\ngraphs of the scene ot the shootinf.\nTh\/m came one of the most Interesting\nfeatures of the trial when Mr. Taylor\n,-HW' n\u00bb awi'spd as a witness\" In his\nown behalf, and Franelsto Amandla left\nthe dock and entered ths witness box,\nThrough the court Interpreter ln an-.\nBwer to Mr. Taylor's questions Amandla\ntold the following story of the occurrence. He detailed who were in Caravetta's store In the afternoon of December lti, and of the party coming there\nfrom Morrlssey, including himself and\nwife and some other men and women.\nHe recounted the previous game of\ncards and the subsequent keg ot tieer.\nContinuing, he said: \"Cozza, the deceased, came Into the store about 5.30,\npretty mod. I told him we were all en-\nJoying ourselves and we did not want\nany trouble.   Cozza caught me by the\ncoat and .said 'You there U\nnothing to-divide between us.' He then\npicked up one ot the chairs and struck\nme, bruising me on tbe wrist and on the\nshoulder\"\u2014here the witness stepped,\ndown and showed the marks on his wrist'\nto the Jury.\nContinuing, Amandla said: \"Cozza\ncaught me by the throat and we had a\nscuffle in which Cozza kicked me on the\nright leg, a-little above the knee. He\ntried to draw me out through the door\ninto the street. I grabbed a chair to\ndefend myself and tried to hit Cozza\nwtth it but some of those present interfered and prevented me. Cozza then\nseized me again asking me to come outside saying, \"Who ever dies, dies.' The\ncrowd was pressing around us at the\ndoor and Cozza had hold of me by the\ncoat. As we were at the door and while\nCozza was holding me with- one hand he\nput the other hand Into his pocket and\ndrew out a razor, slapping rt on his leg,\nto open it, I suppose. When I saw him\nwith a razor In his hand I Jumped back\nand reached for my gun, crying out, 'I\nwlll shoot you,' but I did not then draw\nout my gun. We were on the sidewalk\nby this time and one of the men looking on stepped In between us and held\nme back. Cozza was moving around\ntrying to get at me and the man who\nwas holding, me-let go and Jumped\naside, so tbat Cozza and I were face to\nface again. I then reached for my revolver, saying to Cozza 'Do you wont\nto die?' I flrW two shots away from\nCows, to frighten htm, thinking that\nwhen he saw the gun he would go away,\nbut when he saw that I did not hit him\nwhen I And he came at. me again with\nthe razosj to his hand. I fired the third\nShot, ajala away from him, saying\n'You had better let me go.' Ho said,\n'Whoever dies, dies.' We were facing\neach other and moving across the street\nat this tints After J tired the third\n' lozza found hs was not hit he\ngrapple with me again. We\n^___. moved some .distance from\nwhs* we started on the sidewalk ln\nfronJVof Caravetta's stor\u00bb, going all the\nwhits across the street.- lean aot say\nJiistiliow far we went' because I was\nwatching Cozza all tbe time. If he had\nturitd ii. back I would have run away,\nbut'as he faced me I was afraid to turn\nfor. fear of his .printing on me, I\nthen fired the fourth shot and thla time\nbutcher shop) and when I came round\nagain we met once more, facing the.\nWestern hotel. Cozza came at me-crying out, 'You , you have done\nyour shooting; I'll cut your guts out'\nThen I flred my last shot and Cozza fell\ndown. I had no moro shots ln my gun.\nWhen I tired the last shot Cozza had\ngrappled with me. I held him off with\nmy lett hand and fired at him with the\ngun in my right hand, held up level\nwith his head (Illustrating position).\nBetore that night we may have met, but\nI did not know Cozza by name. I had\nnot been In Morrlssey long.\"\nThe witness then Identified some torn\nunderclothing produced, the tearing,, he\nsaid, was done by Cozza tn the scuffle.\nHe also pointed to some blood on his\nvest which came from his nose bleeding, and bruises on hts face and neck,\ncaused'by Cotza's handling of him. He\nalso accounted for a razor which was\nfound on him when arrested by saying\nhe had been asked at Carbonado by two\not his companions to lend them hit\nrazor to shave wtth, he had done thlt\nand when the last of the two had finished shaving he had put the rotor ln hit,\n(Amandin's) vest pocket, where It was\nsubsequently found.\n'Why did you carry a gun?\" asked\nMr. Taylor.\n\"All nationalities carry guns, to I carried one. All Italian boys carry guns.\nI showed Cozza the gun betore shooting.\nI held lt out so that he could see lt I\nam a married man. That Is my wife\nand baby over there,\"\u2014pointing to the\nJury box on the north side of ths court\nroom.\nMr. McAnn took the witness all over\nthe ground again but Amandla fairly\nstuck to his story as first told. He sold\nthat he did not want to flght or get Into\ntrouble because he was a married man-.\nHe told Cozza that, and he, Cozza, replied that he bod no, one\u2014meaning to\nwife and family depending on him,. At\nflrst, the witness said, he had no thought\nas to was the better - man, hut .when\nCozza grappled with htm he realized\nthat Cozza was the stronger of ths two.\nForeman Wells asked the witness if\nCosts had the rotor In hit hand all tile\ntime, after .first taking It out, and\nAmandla said he had. Then the foreman and several of ths Jury wanted the\nwitness to make lear Just what happened between the firing of the 4th snd\n5th shots and Amondln sold again, \"I\nran around the little shop and we met\nagain and grappled and I fired the last\nshot I had. Juryman Walmsley persisted,\n\"Why did he not get sway when he\nran around the butcher shop,\" hat beyond admitting that Cozza did not follow him, the witness came back to the\nstatement \"We met,\" ud no further explanation was given.\n\/ Tho court then adjourned for an hour\n\u00bbnd at 2.16 Mr. Rots announced that the\ndetenee was closed except ss to Romano, a crown witness from Pernle, not\ncsIIct!, but who wot coming up on the\nding close together   and   moving,\ni. tideways   He stopped after thf\n, shot and began to stagger sad\ni off and mound the lltto shop (the | any material evidence?\nat his legs, When 1 fired we wets J.
