The poles are  already put down a.s far as White Horse,  and the wire will A'ery soon be strung to  Cariboo Crossing. Two camps are operating now, one from Benettand one from  Bennett and one from Cariboo Crossing,  but so soon as the lake and rivers open,  the construction corps will be divided into three parties, the men living on camp  scows, dropping down the river and thus  keeping abreast of the work. Mr. Charle-  son is determined to have a message from  Dawson before the close of the season of  1899, and although he has set no small  task for himself he will do it if anyone  can.  \"Besides constructing the telegraph  line Mi'. Charleston is directing the work  of improving navigation betAveen Bennett  and Dawson.

London, May 2.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe Rirmiiiglmm Post  says it learns that the French government intends to anticipate the revision of  the Dreyfus court martial by .setting him  at liberty in advance of the termination  of the judicial proceedings. According  to this plan, the Post says, on June isfc  fche prisoner will be released ; but in order  that the army shall not be disturbed,  compensation will he awarded to Dreyfus, so that he, with his family, may live  outside \"of France.  Pakis, May 2.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe .Journal des Debats  prints a letter from   general   Gallifet, an  eminent  retired   officer,   pleading   for  a-  truce in the Dreyfus controversy. Thelefc-  ter attracts all the more attention for the  reason that general Gallifet has remained  neutral in the affair, although  he was a  Avitness in the case before the criminal  branch of the court of cassation.     The:  Dreyfusifces, hoAvever, regard it as probable   that   he   has    been   put   forward  by  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd the    general     stall\",     whose     last.  line       of      defense       must      be      an:  appeal  to   pity.

Howxrvcr,  the  enemies of the:  army are not yet  satisfied, arid  demand I  that all the  superior  and  other  officers'  avIio have been more or less mixed up  in'  the disastrous affair be delivered over to  them.    Would   it   not   be better to  at  least decide on silence?   Would it not be;  more prudent, more generous, and at the:  same time more patriotic, not to continue.  to incriminate officers  that  no tribunal;  Avould dream of implicating?   The army!  knows-them and..Avill  admit  they  have  made  a   mistake;   but   it    knows   that  they       are       men       of      honor,      incapable       of       committing       a       bad  action.      It   is   that   members    of   the  goA'ornnienfc promised   the  electors   that  certain punishments  AA*ould   be inflicted.  I respectfully counsel tlie  gOA'erinnent to  abandon this determination, since no one  will'bclhyve that it will become firmer because it may-have once shown, itself'too  seA'ero in  tlie  interest of the army, and  Avith  the object of pacifying  the public  mind.

The reports  Of the  different districts   are   concisely  xvorded, and. the data arranged so as to  be readily found.    A feature is the illustrations, forty-one being printed, ranging  from views in and out* of mines* smelters,  mills and electric power houses to scenes*  of naVtite^ii^e mountain, divides, waterfalls and  canyons.     Some of them are  worthy of preservation;   In fact thi3 re- I  port  is  worth preserving for the ilhis- |  trations alone.    Accoi'ding to the  report  the total production  of minerals  in the  province has been $123,417,326, of which  $56,000,000 was gold and $-10,000,000 coal.

A Zealous Constable.  Troll Creek News.  Two weeks ago, \\\\Y .1. Devitt, Trail's  provincial constable, accomplished the  extradition of .1. .11. Sinclair, wliich  proved to be the first successful extradition in this district out of nine cases.  Yesterday he saved the province the  heavy expense of a .similar action by  chasing on foot, for a distance of twelve  miles, a man who wits heading for the  international line, after having committed robbery with violence. He realized  that it was too serious a violation of  Canadian law to let go unpunished, and  although he had to walk for a distance  ol twenty-four miles over a trail so bad  as to be impassable for a horse, he felt  that the capture of the criminal fully  compensated for the hard trip.

On   the'average\nthe meat audits  compounds bring  $40,\nwhile the by-products bring in at wholesale  $55.    The   latter   sum   is   roughly\nmade up as  follows:    Hide, horns, hoofs\nand  hair,  $25; fats,  blood,  sinews and\nbones, $15; miscellaneous other wastes $15.\nIt is  only  in the  large and  well-appointed  slaughter  houses that  the  full\nvalue  ofthe  animals dealt  with can be\nrealized, and these become factories for a\ngreat many products, besides finding the\nproper and  most profitable  markets for\neach of the raw products into wliich they\nseparate the animals.    Nothing is allowed to go to waste, and ten  years ago one\nof the largest butchers in this city de-.\nclared that tlie' Chicago   packers were\npayiug the entire cost of 'slaughtering\ncattle out   of what   the butchers here\nwere paying to have carted away. Hides,\nhorns,  hoofs  and  hair  have   had  their\nmarkets formally years and-'their value\nincreases steadily.   This is particularly\ntrue of horns, for the practice of dehorning cattle has become so general that in\none: great  Chicago packing  house it was\nfound during, a two-yeaiv count that the\nreturns only showed one horn to every\nthree bullocks.    Horns  are   now worth\nabout  $150 a ton.    The* hides go to the\ntanner,  the hair for \"mixing in mortar.\nThe tails don't go with the hides.    Down\nat the tip is some long  hair, and  this is\nsold to be turned into curled hair for upholstering.\n.If the hoofs are pure white they have\na peculiar value. They are sent to China\nfor jewelry making. Tliose which are\nstriped, black or damaged go into the\nkettle to be b iled for glue and the residue made into hoof meal, a valuable\nfertilizer. In fact, everything which is\nnot used for other purposes is at Last\nturned into some form of fertilizer, even\nto tho tankage Avater in which the coarsest of the refuge is boiled to extract its\nfats. The coarse bones are either carbonized and sold for sugar refiners' use\nor turned into fertilizers, and the blood\nis mostly dried and turned into another\naid to agriculture. Some of the blood is\nsold in liquid form to sugar refiners, but\nnot a great deal. The white bones suitable for knife handles and such purposes\nbring from $70 to $1)0 a ton and go mostly to Germany.\nThe main parts of the animal as they\nare sent to market are all carefully\ntrimmed, but there is no piece of good\nmeat but has its market. Tongues and\ntails are regular articles'of commerce,\nand even the meat from the cheeks is\nadded to the supply for sausages and the\nlips are cut off and pickled. Each character of fat is separated from the others\naiid finally these are marketed in the\nvarious forms of neat's foot oil, oleo oil,\ntallow and stearine and oleomargarine.\nBefore the horns are sold the pith is extracted from them and the finest grade\nof gelatine is obtained from the pith.\nThe sinews are all separated to be used\nfor glue stock, the bladders are sold for\nholding snuff and the greater part of the\nintestines \u25a0 are used for sausage casings.\nParts of these have, however, a. special\nuse aud value, and are sold separately to\nbe made up into goldbeater's skins. The\nlining of the windpipe is also of particular value, being used for a. fancy sausage\neasing and also as a lining for pipes\nthrough wliich beer is passed in breweries. 13eef extrjfet, pepsin and many\nother things are made in some of the big\ngest houses.\nA new iise has recently been discovered for the contents of the paunch, which\nuntil lately had to be thrown;away, it\nhas been discovered that a good quality\nof cardboard can be made of it anil it is\nnow being saved for that purpose. Of\ncourse, tlie large receipts from' these byproducts are not all profit, but there is a\nmanufacturer's profit made out of each\none of them which aggregates a handsome .sum, and all of this helps to keep\ndown tlie price of the fresh meats to the\nconsumer.\nB\nS*^**-\nKg*\nmmmi\nTRADE WINNERS\n| DRESS GOODS\nf PLAID GINGHAMS\nB\nB\nB\nB\nNew patterns  at  10, 12i,\nand 20 cents per yard.\n15.\nSWISS SPOT MUSLIN\nAt I2A-, 15, 20, and 3d  eents\nper yard.\nFANCY DRESS GOODS\nAt 3~i cents   pei- yard, .worth\n50 cents.\nDRESS PATTERNS\nAll-wool Pepper, latest shades\nat $4 each;\nLUMBER\nA Statement Greeted With  Cheers.\nAssociated   Press.\nLondon, May 2.\u2014At a meeting of the\nshareholders of the British South  Africa\nCompany today, Cecil-Rhodes referred to\nthe fact that tenders  for the  construction of 250 miles of the  Rhodesian  railway had been made from  America, and\nlie added :    \"I found by far  the  lowest\ntender was  by an American  firm\u2014Carnegie's bid.

The price of ftxoliorjuor stock has advanced aj,rain, some transactions liaviiijj*  taken place yostordiiy at thirteen cents.  Tho advance is supposed to have been  caused by the improved appearance of  (lie drift from the main tunnel.
