C, THURSDAY,   MARCH 12, 1903.\nNO. 272\nKILLED BY A\nNels Zetenberg Meets Death\nat Cottonwood Lake\nBurled Under Twenty Feet\nof Packed Snow\nNels Zetenberg, a prospector of this\nclty\\ was killed by suffocation under a\nsnowsllde down the mountain at the foot\nof Cottonwood lake, 5 miles from the\ncity, during somo time early yesterday\nmorning or on Tuesday night.\nThe deceased had been working at a\nclaim which he owned about 500 feet up\nfrom the lake, the cabin being situated\na short distance Ito the northward of the\ntunnel. Besides working at his claim\nZetenberg had been employed by the\ncity engineer to look after the sluico\ngates at Ihe foot of the lake, which are\nused In storing up water and regulating\nithe flow during low waiter. He had built\nn substantial log cabin, and as the hillside was very heavily timbered about it.\nwas considered safe from slides. Knowing the great height and steepness of\ntho mountain at thc back ot thc cabin,\nsome of Zetenberg's frleuds became uneasy about his location^ and laslt Monday\nwhen he came in for supplies they endeavored to persuade him to stay in\nNelson for a time till some ot Ihe snow\nhad gono away. This he refused to do,\nand scouted at there being any risk. The\ntimber on the mountainside nearly to\nthe top was composed of 'trees from 18\nInches to three feet tn diameter, and\nconsidering this, he believed himself\nperfectly safe, and after obtaining his\nsupplies he returned to his mountain\ncabin. That was the last time he was\nseen alive.\nYesterday as the morning Great Northern train from Nelson for Northport\nwas passing the foot of Cottonwood\nlake, the track of the N. & F. S. railway\nclosely skirting the beach of the lake\nfor ita entire length, the engineer noticed that there had been no less than\nseven slides along on the opposite side\nof the mountain. Knowing the whereabouts of Zetenberg's cabin*, the engineer\nlooked for it, and saw that two slides,\nuniting in a V shape about 150 feet above\nithe site of the cabin, had swept clear\nacross it. leaving a broad white ribbon\nbetween the timber, while out on tho ice\nof the lake was the roof of the cabin and\nseveral small objects, and Ave or six\nmen were digging in the snow near\nwhere the cabin hnd been. As soon a**\nthe train reached Ymlr a telegram wns\nsent to mayor Rose, and Immediately\natter its receipt John Munroe, the foreman of the city water works department, with three men, started up to help\nin the work of rescue. Besides the men\nmentioned, I. G. Nelson, who was related to Zetenberg, went along with two\nmore men. tt was 11.30 o'clock when\nthe rescue party left Nelson, and owing\nto the deep snow on the road It took\nthem till 1.15 to reach the lake. They\nfound the crew of section men from\nSummit and some prospectors digging\nvigorously, and Immediately Joined in\nthe work.\nThe snow lay about 20 feet deep where\nthe cabin had been, and as It was hard\npacked, progress was slow. Finally, at\nthe bottom of one ot the shafts sunk\nthey perceived log ends protruding, and\nquickly ascertained that It was the back\nof the cabin which stood next to the\nmountain that they had struck. Estimating from this another shaft was\nsunk through the snow down to where\nit was known Zetenberg's hunk had been\nand when within a couple of feet of the\nfloor the feet of the dead man were seen\nsticking up above the edge of the bunk,\nwedged in the snow, the body being\nunder the bunk. With some difficulty\nit was extricated at once, but a single\nglance at the face showed that Zetenberg had been dead for some hours at\nthe least The unfortunate man, who\nwas clad In his shirt nnd trousers, had\nevidently been awakened by the shock\nwhen the tremendous Impact of the\nslide tore the roof from the cabin. He\nhad probably tried to get out of thc\ndoor, but seeing it was too late had\ndived under the bunk as the wave of\nsnow and timber rolled over the top of\nthe walls. In this he had been partially successful, but the snow had caught\nhis legs and held him fast, to perish hy\nsuffocation when Ithe air In the open\nspace under the bunk was exhausted. He\nhad evidently fought vigorously to extricate himself, but the tons of wet snow\npressing down from above had held his\nfeet as rigid as If in a vice. The body\nwas still warm when found, but the face\nwas discolored and almost black, proving that death had come by suffocation.\nIt was about 3 o'clock when the body\nwas recovered, and it was immediately\nbrought to the city on a hand car. and\ntaken to the undertaking establishment of D. McArthur & Co., on Vernon\nutreett.\nApparently the walls of the cabin, or\nat least as high ns the bunk, are still\nintact, but the force of the upper portion\nof tho slide must have been incalculable. Hundreds of Immense trees, broken\nlike matches, lay strewn along ithe top\nof the snow or partially buried, protrude at fantastic angles along Its\ncourse. At tho head of the lake Is Ihe\nchannel of a slide which comes down\nregularly each winter. This, however,\nfollows the course of a small creek, and\nin the course of time has scooped out\na clear gulch. As attested by the size\nof the trees growing thickly along the\nmountain side, no slide has come down\nanywhere else along the lake for scores\nof years till the present time, but now\nseveral miniature mountains of snow lie\npiled up on the lake, with white swaths\nabove them stretching clear to the\nsummit.\nWHITAKER WRIGHT'S FATE\nLONDON    FINANCIER    IS    TO    BE\nCRIMINALLY    PROSECUTED.\nHAS   GONE   ABROAD ON ACCOUNT\nOF HIS HEALTH.\nLondon, March 11.\u2014A warrant for tlie\narrest of Whltaker Wright, a director\nof the London & Globe Finance corporation, was issued today.\nFollowing the order to criminally\nprosecute Wright, a summons for the\nlatter was obtained yesterday evening,\nbut when the officer who went to the\nresidence to serve the summons inquired\nfor Wright, he was informed that the\nfinancier had gone to tlie continent on\naccount of his health.\nIn the commons, Swift MacNelll (Irish\nnationalist) asked the home secretary\nwhat steps were being taken to prevent\nWright from attempting to escape Justice. The home secretary declined to\nanswer the question without some modification.\n[Proceedings against Whltaker Wright\nfrom fraud have been long pending and\napparently the authorities have at last\nbeen induced to order his arrest and\nprosecution. The facts brought out In\nthe investigation of thc affairs of several\ncorporations formerly controlled by\nWright, were long ago laid before the\nhome authorities, but until yesterday\nthey declined to act. Wright, is chiefly\nknown in this country through his connection with the British America corporation, which manipulated the Le Roi\nand other Rossland mining companies,\nwhich are only now recovering from the\neffects of former \"London management\"\nof the Wright type.]\nTHE SCARCITY OF\" CARS.\nThe Lumber Industry Is Seriously\nHandicapped\u2014Rates Too High.\nVancouver, March 11.\u2014The scarcity of\ncars for the shingle and lumber business\nIs still very seriously felt In British Columbia. The McNair mill is said to have\n124.000 worth of shingles tied up for the\nwant of transportation.\nLabor is still very scarce in the mills\nand woods. A movement was on foot\nrecently to get 1,000 men from Finland.\nThe Finnish colony president, Mr. Kui-r,\nhowever, decided that the aett would be\nunfriendly to the unions, and he declined to secure the men, although he\nsaid he could get 1,000 men easily in the\nstale of Michigan alone.\nMr. Kurt- also wrote io Pnget sound\npoints and to California and received a\nnumber of letters, Ihb writers of which\nitated that they would be quite willing\nto work for wages ruling In British Columbia. Most of these letters came\nfrom California, where the Flnlanders\nreem anxious to migrate to colder clime:-.\nThe hitch that occurred In not engaging\nthese men was that the British Columbia mills wanted unskilled labor to\ntrain and the writers all declared themselves skilled sawyers, fallers and engineers.\nAccording to the way loggers' licences\nare being applied for the coming season will be a record one and the provincial government will reap a rich harvest.\nTho Gazellte shows that 195 licences were\nissued for tho first two months of the\nyear. This means an average of 100 a\nmonth or 1,200 for tho year, and it Is\nquite likely to aggregate that amount, as\nno let up Is anticipated.\nThis 1,200 licences means thai the government will secure in revenue from this\none source alone $120,000 and still there\nare some who say that the government\ndid not know what they were doing\nwhen they prohibited the export of logs\nto the United States.\nOwing to the high freight rates on\nrough lumber it is impossible for British\nColumbia mills to ship east. Rough\nlumber can be shipped overland from\nthe Kootenays, but not from Vancouver.\nBut as it Is now only planed lumber\nfor flooring, etc., can be shipped at a profit overland, so Ithat a great part of the\ntree would have to be wasted if this was\ntho only means of disposing of the rough\nmaterial.\nGOSSIP  OF GREENWOOD.\n[Special to The Dally News.)\nGreenwood, March 11.\u2014W.

R. Gamey who was elected as a\nconservative for Manitoulln, Informed\nthe house that he had been paid $4,000\nto support tho Ross government. Seven\nweeks ago the Globe published an editorial saying that Gamey would support\nthe government, and today he explained\nthis was the culmination of his dealings\nwith Hon. J. R. Stratton, provincial\ntreasurer. He had been approached by\n\"Cap.\" Sullivan, who told him where\nthere was $5,000 for him In supporting\nthe Ross government. Gamey consulted McGregor, president of the conservative association, and they decided to\nlead Sullivan on. On January 8th Gamey\nwent to Toronto nnd Sullivan took him\nto Stratum's ofllce. There he signed\nsome documents and was told to go to\nthe smoking room, where he would be\npaid from an envelope shown him by\nStratton. Stratton gave the envelope to\nhis private secretary, who gave it to\nCharles Chase, the premier's messenger,\nwho gave It to him. He and Sullivan\ndivided the money equally, each taking\n$1,500. An additional $1,000 was paid on\nJanuary 27th after the Interview ln the\nGlobe.\nPremier Ross stated that the whole\nstory was a surprise to him, and an Investigation would be held Immediately,\nand the whole matter referred tq the\nprivileges and elections committee. The\nhouse then adjourned.\nMAKE THE BLIND SEE.\nCan Restore Sight and Give Vision to\nThose Who Have Never Seen.\nParis*. March 11.\u2014Professor Peter\nSteins claims to have discovered the\nsecret of restoring sight to the blind.\nThe announcement is published In the\nRevue des Revues, by Dr. Caze, who explains how professor Steins tested on\nbim a wonderful apparatus of professor\nSteins' Invention, by which he is not\nonly able to restore lost sight, but to\ngive vision to those who have never\nknown It.\nProfessor Steins took Dr. Caze Into a\ndark room, and bandaged bis eyes so he\ncould see nothing. He heard the professor walk to and fro, strike a match\nand light a lamp. Then he felt an apparatus fixed around his temples, whereupon he instantly saw a dim light which\nenabled him to distinguish surrounding\nobjects. Presently the light became\nstronger and Dr. Caze was able to count\nthe professors' fingers when they were\nheld up before him', and to make out\nother things ln the room. Just as he\nwas feeling that his vision was clearing\nfurther, and he was convinced that he\nwould soon see normally, professor\nSteins suddenly removed the apparatus\nand Dr. Caze was In total darkness.\nProfessor Steins' claim rests on the\ntheory that man does not see with the\neye but with the brain, the eye only\nserving to receive the Image which the\noptio nerve transmits to the seat of perception. If the Image can be transmitted to the brain without eyes a blind\nperson can see as well as anybody else.\nTho professor's apparatus has the same\nscientific basis as the telephone with\nthe substitution of light for sound. Dr.\nCaze states that several other physicians\nhavo experimented with the apparatus,\nbut none of them are able to explain how\ntho astounding results are obtained.\nTHE CASE OF MABTINEAU.\nSeven Years in Penitentiary For tbe\nGovernment Defaulter.\nOttawa.

He declared that the Independence\nof Morocco was essential to the security\nof the French north African possessions.\nU'hfle expressing hopes that the movement for a genoral disarmament might\neventually succeed, the minister said\nFrance was not called upon to take tho\nInitiative in such a movement.\nHe explained In detail the part France\nhad taken In connection with Macedonia\nand referred alBO lo the satisfactory status\nof the alliance between France and Russia, and to the friendly understanding\nexisting between France nnd Italy.\nOn conclusion of the foreign minister's\nspeech, the chamber adopted a resolution\nexpressing confidence in the course the\ngovernment is pursuing towards foreign\nquestions. This was n notable personal\ntribute to, and triumph for, M. Delcasse,\nand was slgnlllcant of the strength of tho\nministry on the eve of tho opening of the\ndebate relative to the application of the\nlaw of associations to the various rellgiouB\ncongregations.\nSOUTHERN  PACIFIC.\nGross Mlssmanagement or Wilful Deception Is Charged. \/\nNew York, March 11.\u2014Talbot J.

The object of the pamphlet Is to\nencourage emigration to Brazil with the\nhope that the outcome may be the establishment of a protectorate over the Brazilian state of Rio Grand do Sul as soon\nas the German element there shall have\nbecome sufficiently powerful to cast oft\nthe sovereignty of the Brazilian repub-\nlls. It Is not, perhaps* generally known,\nsays the Ottawa Free Press, that Brazil\nherself sowed the seed which seems now\ngrowing into a stout tree. Eighty years\nago the government of their empire invited settlement, granted lands, transportation and started the immigrants in\nthe agricultural business. Very great\nnumbers of Germans took advantage of\nthe opportunity and ln a short time 200,-\n000 of the race settled in the south. The\nBrazilians, however, became afraid that\na racial homogeneity might cause mischief and so they proceeded to leaven the\nlump by bringing in other foreigners.\nIn two years 100,000 Italians and Poles\ncamo over, and since then, it is reported,\nthe additions made to the existing population have been very great, varying\nfrom 107,000 in 1890 to 170,000 ln 1895.\nTen years ago the inhabitants of foreign birth or foreign ancestry In the\nthree states most favored by European\ncolonists amounted ln round numbers to\nsomething like 1,000,000. It is estimated that these figures are now doubled. But Dr. Wlegand ln the pamphlet\nreferred to, says that the Germans rap-\nIdly absorb the others and the race feeling on tho part of the people being\nalmost Indelible it may be seen that If\nthe kaiser has political designs In southern Brazil he has good material with\nwhich to operate. The commercial supremacy of Germany ln the region In a\nfew years cannot be regarded as an improbability any longer. And the United\nStates could but look on.\nEDITORIAL NOTES.\nReferring to the Inconvenience caused\nto the general public by the C. P. R.\nstrike now in progress, the Toronto\nNews (Independent) says editorially: \"It\ndoes not matter which Bide is right. It\ndoes not matter whether our sympathies\nare with company or strikers. The general public is injured in a quarrel with\nwhich it is only indirectly concerned.\nSooner or latod the practice of forcing\nthe innocent users of great public services into quarrels of the management\nmust cease. The service must be maintained. An equitable method must he\nfound of adjusting differences between\nemployers and employees\u2014a method\nwhich will protect the interests of that\nlittlo considered third party, the public,\nWe are not sure but the remedy has\nbeen found in the arbitration bill which\nsir William Mulock will submit to parliament at the coming session.\"\nThe solidarity of tho British ministry\nhas in no instance been more strikingly\nexemplified than by the recent visit of\nMr. Chamberlain to South Africa. The\n\"Let the GOLD DUST twins do your work'\nexperiment is unique. He dirt not go on\nthat mission as a special minister or\nplenlpotentiary, he was not bound by instructions or rules for his guidance, but\nwent there with a free hand as the government, and every act of his there is\nthe act of tho whole ministry, who accept all and every responsibility for\nwhatever he said or did there. How very\nand admirably different is that from the\ncondition we have so often seen in both j\ndominion and provincial affairs. It is\nno rare experience to find one minister j\ndeolaring for one policy and another i\nrepudiating it and asserting another in\nits Btead. The example afforded by this\nmission to South Africa should lead\nother governments to profit by It. The\nperfect trust that one minister can have\nin another and in the whole, comes of\na knowledge tbat each is bound by certain definite lines, nnd when special conditions are present, the action of the one\nto whose lot the treatment called for by\nthose conditions is accepted in good\nfaith, for better or for worse, by all\nother members of the ministry. There\nis no reason why we should not expect\nand obtain a similar state of affairs ln\nthis province, but it cannot be brought\nabout so long as the control of public\naffairs is left to the tender mercies and\nerratic vagaries of the nondescript form\nof government with which the province\nis and has been afflicted since confederation, It may not be quite fair to saddle\nparty line government with every virtue\nbut It would at least tend to bring about\nthat solidarity that Is an essential feature of responsible government.\nREDUCED RATES.\nThe Postmaster-General Brings About a\nMuch-Needed Change.\nThe last issue of the Dominion Gazette\ncontains the official announcement of\nthe reduction in the postage rate on\nnewspapers and periodicals posted ln\nCanada for transmission ito Great Britain. It reads as follows: \"The undersigned in virtue of the power conferred\nupon him by section 29 of the postofflce\nact, hereby gives notice that on and\nafter this date newspapers and periodicals posted in any postofflce In Canada\nfor .transmission to the United Kingdom\nof Great Britain and Ireland may pass\nat the same rates of postage and under\nthe same regulations as if such matter\nwere addressed to any postofflce In Canada   W. Mulock, postmaster-general.\"\nFor several years sfr William Mulock\nhas been endeavoring to secure the consent of the English postofflce authorities\nto a reduction in the rate of postage\nupon newspapers and periodicals passing between the two countries. The\nmatter was brought to the attention of\nthe Imperial conference last summer,\nand a motion favoring reduction was\ncarried, but up to the present the English postal authorities did not see their\nway to agreeing to such a proposition.\nAmongst other things, it was represented that loss of revenue would be occasioned, and, moreover, they did not feel\nat liberty to make an exception in favor\nof Canada alone of all the British possessions. Upon the appointment of the\nright honorable Austen Chamberlain as\nhis majesty's postmaster-general', Bir\nWilliam Mulock presed the subject upon\nhis attention, and also informed Mr.\nChamberlain that without waiting for\nEngland to reduce her rate Canada was\nprepared at once to reduce the rate of\npostage on her outgoing mail matter.\nUnder the terms of the universal postal\nconvention the consent of two countries\nis necessary before any reduction of\npostage on mail matter between them\ncan be made, and therefore so long as\nthe imperial government's consent was\nwithheld Canada could not reduce her\noutgoing rate. This consent has now\nbeen received and gazetted. Doubtless\nthis Important concession will lead to a\nvery considerable increase in the circulation of Canadian newspapers in Great\nBritain.\nDOMINION FINANCES.\nReturns   Show   Decided   Improvement\nOver Position a Year Ago.\nIn round numbers Canada's financial\nposition shows an improvement of\n$7,000,000 on February 28th last, compared with what Is was a year ago. The\neight months of the present fiscal year,\nwhich terminated on February 28th, give\nan increase of $4,636,689 of revenue, as\nagainst the same period of the previous\nfiscal year, while the capital expenditure\nwas lessened by $2,894,966. On the other\nhand, the ordinary revenue increased by\nonly |466,019. If the growth of revenue\ncontinues for the rest of the year at the\nsame rate, and the expenditure Is kept\ndown to the same extent, the finance\nminister will have his heart gladdened\nwith a large surplus. Taking the last\neight months*, tbe receipts on account of\nconsolidated fund were $41,103,486. The\nordinary expenditures aggregated $29,-\n523,086, and the capital expenditures\n$5,459,916, giving a surplus of receipts\nover ordinary expenditure of $11,580,400,\nand over all expenditure of $6,120,484.\nTho receipts for the eight monthB\nwere:\n1902. 1903.\nCustoms   $20,627,982   $23,410,062\nExcise      7,476,996      7,943,340\nPostofflce       2,400,833      2,779,455\nPublic works ....   4,087,871      4,636,412\nMiscellaneous   ...   2,073,114      2,334,216\nTolal  $36,666,797   $41,103,486\nThe capital expenditure includes\n$1,076,864 for railway subsidies, and\n$779,177 for iron and steel bounties. For\nthe same period of tbe year previous,\n$1,972,547 wns expended in railway subsidies, and $364,000 for iron and stoel\nbounties.\nTHE SMALL ADVERTISER.\n(Hy J. Troy, in The Canadian Grocer.)\nThere scorns to be an Idea prevalent that\nadvertliing to for large dealers only. This\nbelief Tint kept   many a small  mernhant\nfrom improving his opportunities in this\ndirect f on.\nNearly, if not all, the large retail merchants of tlie present day have become so\nby   extensive  advertising:.\nThe advertising which they have done\nmay not be the sole cause of their success,\nbut It lias beon tho greatest contributing\ncause. Nearly all large enterprises, Which\nare now meeting with well-deserved success, have begun on u small scale. Their\nadvertising was done in a small way, but\nit has been kept up' duy after day and year\nafter   year.\nGood business methods, untiring industry nnd good advertising are the factors\nwhich bring success In business.\nDo not be afraid of being overshadowed\nby the big advertiser. The big advertiser\nof the present perhaps may have been a\nsmall advertiser only a few years ago.\nMany times the well-worded reader of\nonly a few lines, or the .small display advertisement will reach the eyes of moro\nreaders than the pretentious display of tlie\nlarger store, it tells the people you have\ngoods to sell and what you will sell them\nfor.   That is all the big store can say.\nNino times out of ten it is the price that\nsells the goods, so don't be afraid to tell\nyour story to the public. If you toll it in\ntho right way and practice no deception it\nwill only bo a question of a very little\ntime until you will begin to receive adequate returns on your investment in ad*\nvertislng space. The dealer, be be tho\ncorner grocer or the largest denier in general merchandise in the city, who will sell\nstaple or special articles, quality considered, for tbe least money, and lets the\npeople know it, will receive the patronage.\nIf the small dealer buys Ills goods right\nhe can sell them nt right prices. Subscribe\nfor a reliable trade paper scrutinize the\nmarket reports carefully, therein you will\nAnd nil tlie necessary information to enable you to buy your goods right.\nEvery city has plenty of examples\nshowing how small dealers ln all kinds\nof merchandise have made their business\na success by wise and Judicious advertising, Tako what space you can afford, contract by the year, watch it, change the\nmntter very frequently, ond you soon will\nneed moro room for your store and more\nspace In the papers. This advice is tendered the wholesaler, manufacturer nnd\njobber as well as the smnll retailer. They\ncan attrnct attention by a liberal use of\nadvertising space In an honest trade newspaper, just the same ns the small retailer\ncan by taking space in the daily or weekly\nnewspaper.\nJudicious advertising will develop any\nmercantile business that has n right to\nexist.\nCOAL AND COKE TO BE SUPPLIED.\nWhat tho Investor wants nowadays Is\nplain fnctB that can bo substantiated, and\nthese are fncts: Our smelters are certainly In need of coal and coke.

C\u201e THURSDAY, MARCH 12,1808.\nCANADIAN LOSSES BY\nBRITISH DIPLOMACY\nThomas Hodglns, K. C, master in ordinary, and recently appointed judge of\nthe Ontario admiralty court, has attacked certain statements made in the Mail-\nEmpire concerning the English management of the Alaskan boundary\nmatter. Judge Hodglns, who is a well\nknown authority on constitutional law,\nwriting to the editor ol the Mail-Empire\nsays:\n\"Few will agree with you that iraiwr-\nial ministers in the past 'havo asserted\nour rights and have secured lor Canada\nterritory, which, but for them, would\nhave been incorporated in the republic.'\nIn this you reverse the facts of history;\nyou reverse the declarations of sir John\nA. Macdonald, who in 1871 had to -vrlte:\n'I am greatly disappointed at the course\ntaken by the British commissioners.\nThey have only one thing in their minds,\nthat Is to go to England with a treaty\nin their pockets, no matter at what loss\nto Canada;' and you reverse sir Charles\nW. Dllke, who in 1890 wrote; !t is a\nfact that British diplomacy has tost\nCanada dear,'\n\"1. The imperial ministers of 1783\nceded to the United States about 300,000\nsquare miles of that portion of Canada\nnow the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,\nMichigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota,\nwhich had been ceded by France to Grea'\nBritain in 1763, which Mr. Oswald, then\nplenipotentiary, described as 'the back\nlands of Canada,' and a 'country woi'th\nnothing and of no importance' He\nurged them to 'cede the whole of Canada\nand Nova Scotia;' he actually agreed to\nii draft treaty ceding from St. John\nriver and along the then supposed\nMaine boundary to tne St. Lawrence,\ncrossing to Cornwall, thence to lake\nNtplssfng, and thence to the sources of\nthe Mississippi, ceding the best of what\nIs now Ontario to the United States.\n\"2. The same Imperial ministers also\nceded to the United States the so-called\n'Indian Territory,' now the states of\nKentucky, Tennessee and Alabama,\nabout 135,000 square miles.\n\"As said by a French minister\u2014'The\nEnglish have bought peace, not made\none. Their concessions have exceeded\nanything we believed possible.'\n\"3. And Mr. Wharton, in his Digest of\nUnited States International Law, says;\n'It has been frequently said that of all\ntreaties executed by Great Britain this\ntreaty was the one in which she gave\nmost and took least. And in view of\nthe fact that she then held New York.\nCharleston and Penobscot, and had\nalmost unchecked control of American\nwaters, her surrender, not merely of tbe\nentire territory claimed by the colonists\nbut of the Indians whom she had hold\nunder her allegiance; of the rights of\nthe refugees she had pledged herself to\nprotect, and of the fisheries. In which\nshe conceded to the United States n\nJoint ownership\u2014presents an instance of\nsacrifice of territory,, of sovereignty, and\nof political prestige, which Is unparalleled ln the history of diplomacy.'\n\"4. The imperial ministers of 1818\nceded to the United States further Canadian territory. As Mr. Dent says in hi*\nCanada Since the Union: 'About 4,000,-\n000 acres to tho west of lake Superior\nbeing a tract which had always been\nclaimed by Great Britain, went to satisfy the thrifty appetite of the republic;'\nand also an Isolated promontory of 10.-\n000 acres ln the northwestern portion\nof the Lake of the Woods, 26 miles north\nof the boundary line of 49 degrees.\n\"6. The imperial ministers of 1842\nunder the guidance of lord Ashburton\nceded 4,489,000 acres which the concealed Franklin red-line map would have\nproved to have been Canadian lands.\nAnd of this map Greviile says in his\nMemoirs: 'Lord Ashburton told me It\nwas very fortunate that this map did not\nturn up in the course of his negotiation\nfor if It had there would have been no\ntreaty at all. Nothing, he said, would\nhave induced the Americans to accept\nthat line, and admit our claim; and with\n' that evidence in our favor, it would\nhave been impossible Tor us to concede\nwhat we did, or anything like it.'\n\"6. The imperial ministers of 1846\nceded Oregon to the United States, although Great Britain had rights by occupation, and by the Nootka Sound treaty\nof 1790 with Spain; perhaps guided by\nlord Ashburton, who declared In the\nhouse of lords that Great Britain's right\nwas 'a question worthless in itself, and\nthat It would be madness to go to war\nfor nothing but a mere question of\nhonor.'\n\"7. The imperial ministers of 1871,\nwhen the Fenian raid claims were rejected by the high commissioner of the\nUnited States because 'the claims did not\ncommend themselves to their favor,'\nwould 'not further urge that these claims\nshould be Included in the treaty.' And\nto Canada's protest against this denial\nof International Justice lord Klmberley\nsays: 'Canada could not reasonably expect that Great Britain should, for an\nIndefinite period, incur the constant risk\nof a serious misunderstanding with the\nUnited States.' And commenting on\nthese claims, Hall's International Law\nsays: 'It would be difficult to find more\ntypical instances of national responsibility assumed by a-state for such open\nand notorious acts as tho Fenian raids\ninto Canada, and by way of complicity\nafter such acta. Of course, In gross cases\nlike these, a right of war accrues to the\nInjured nation.' The money cost of these\nFenian raids into Canada was over\n11,600,000.\n\"8. And the same ministers, by agreeing to the United States' request to\nlimit tbe reference to the German emperor of the Vancouver channels to only\ntwo\u2014an eastern and a western\u2014Instead\nof the treaty 'ro\/ddle channel,' Canada\nwas arbitrated oat of the Island of San\nJuan. Mr. Blake, ln a state paper on tho\ntreaty, truly remarked that the United\nStates 'gave nothing and got everything.'\n\"9. Such are the historic facts respecting the dealings of imperial ministers\nwith Canadian rights and territory.\n\"10.\u2014'The new Alaskan treaty has not\nas yet been published ln full. But It\nimposes no similar conditions as to\n'towns and settlements located by the\nUnited Slates on British-Canadian terri\ntory,' as the high commissioners for the\nUnited States sought to force on the\nBritish commissioners in 1899, as a condition of their agreeing to an arbitration\ntreaty. It provides for the submission\nof seven questions to 'an arbitration tribunal,' and that: 'The tribunal shall consist of six impartial Jurists of repute,\nwho shall consider judicially the questions submitted to them\u2014each of whom\nshall first subscribe on oath that he will\nImpartially consider the arguments and\nevidence presented to the tribunal, and\nwill decide thereupon according to Mb\ntrue judgment.'\n\"11. The treaty practically adopts de\nnovo the Anglo-Russian treaty of 1825,\nand can be claimed under the conclusive\ndoctrine of estoppel to operate as the\ndiplomatic entombment of all the contentions made by the United States as to\nwaiver of the original treaty line, on the\npart of Great Britain or Canada And If I\njustices of the supreme court of the\nUnited States are appointed (as has been\nusual in former international disputes),\nthey will in the truest sense, be 'impartial jurists of repute, who shall consider\njudicially the questions submitted to\nthem,' and Canada may be content, and\nplacidly accept the decision of the proposed tribunal.\n\"12. Lord Salisbury in 1890 furnlBhed a\nprecedent for a reference to an even\nnumber of commissioners by proposing\nIn the Venezuelan case that 'a commission should be created by agreement between Great Britain and the United\nStates; consisting of four members,\nnamely two British subjects and two\ncitizens of tbe United States.\"\nand interesting picture beforo It.\nWhen the Plaza Publico, or oity hall is\nraielK'il, the men take places on a stand\nfor tholr use, while tne llOi'ses are taken\naway tn bt* relieve!] of their gorgeous trappings and to bo got ready for the event of\nthe day. Three times around tills circular plaza is the required distance for the\nrace, and almost before one Is aware of\nIt the goto is raised and all the horses\nfly as If shot out of a cannon.\nWhen tho great race Is over, the winner\nIs at once surrounded by police who protect him from the 'Infuriated mob of\nopposite factions.\nIS FIVE JCENTURfflOLD\nMOST   PICTURESQUE\nTHE  WORLD.\nMORSES ARE BLESSED BEFORE CONTEST  BEGINS.\nFor thc past 500 years Siena, In Central\nItaly, lias annually been the scene of the\nmost picturesque horse race In the world.\nWith all the beauty of the surrounding\nhills as a background, with the quaint\nstreets and houses of the city for a setants\nto add the needful touch to the scene, thc\nfourteen wards Into which Siena Is divided strive for the honors of the turf,\nBut what Is strangest of all this strange\nrace, It is recognized by the church, and\nwith all the pomp of the most Important\nreligious ceremonies, each horse Is blessed\nand sunctliled before the contest begins.\nAbout four In the uftcrnoon the horHes\nare taken to Ihe parish churches, each\nwith his nine attendants, all arrayed In\ntheir gorgeous costumes.\nThe riders have llrst a little service for\nthemselves, then the horses are taken in\nthe church and up to thc chapel.\nThe horse is always as composed as if\nit wero a daily occurrence and walks proud\nly ont of the church as If nothing unusual\nhad  happened.\nHo is richly caparisoned In velvet and\nsatin to correspond with the costumes of\nlil.s nlno attendants. All the materials\nused nre of tho very richest and handsomest and each tiguro looks ns if he had\nstepped   from some modineval  circus.\nIn the centre of the town is the picturesque Plaza del Campo.\nIt Is situated at the union of the three\nhills upon which Siena Is built, and sits\nIn the centre resembling an ancient\ntheatre.\nOn one side of this square rises the\nrather Imposing Plaxa Publico, or city hall.\na structure of brick, with pointed windows.\nIt Is in this square that the 11 Pallo, as the\nhorso races are called, have taken placo\nevery July 2nd and August 15tli for thc last\nfive centuries.\nThe town of Siena Is divided into fourteen sections or wards, and each one has\nIts own. horse. On July 2nd only ten\nwards sent their horses to compete for the\nprize, the full number runii.ig oily on\nAugust 15th.\nThe race track Itself Is as picturesque as\nany other feature of this unique country.\nInstead of having a track In a broad expanse of open country, they have It In\nthe very heart of the city.\nThe center of the public square is fenced off for the use of the spectators who\nare unable to pay for a seat on the stands,\nwhich are erected around the entire\nsquare but those who are fortunate In pro-\nourlng balconies havo still better and\nsafer positions.\nEach balcony Is draped with cloth or\nvelvet of a brilliant color, trimmed wWii\ngold fringe. Some of these look as If\nthey might have been heirloom?, yet thc\nwhole effect is most pleasing to the eye.\nTho race course around tho while s-tvare\nIs well fenced off, and all precautions arc\ntaken to avoid accidents of any klni\nTho central portion of the square !s filled\nwith on enthusiastic crowd of onlookers,\neach ono anxious for his favorite horse\nto win.\nMany an old farmer drives his pair of\nlong horned white oxen to his two wheeled basket wagon miles to tMtaMs tUfl\npicturesque and exciting tiyi nnd the\nwomen and children wlio accompany him\nadd much to the picturesquesn^s nt the\nwhole scene by the wearing of th\" r graceful, brood-brimmed Leghorn hnts.\nEvery seat is occupied early and e\\ try\nbalcony taken by an expectant throng; of\npeople, nil anxiously awaiting th* g'ent\nevent of the yenr.\nAs tho hour approaches every one is\nsilent, and soon the sound of a ougb tells\nthat the procession Is about to begin. It\nis the custom for each horse to be shown\nto the public before tho race, and this\nbrilliant parade gives the followers of\nthe different wards a chance to choir their\nfavorite horse.\nFrom a side street lending Into one of\ntho plaza the musicians lead the way,\nclosely followed by the first horse and Ms\nattendants, nil attired In their gorgeous\ncostumes.\nSeveral of those carry magnificent silken\nbanners, which they sway to and 'ro\nkeeping time with the music.\nAs soon as tho whole procession Is In\nthe ring the audience has a most unique\nLEGAL STATUS OF UNIONS.\nThe recent decision of the Ontario Divisional court at Toronto, setting uslde a\nservice on tho agent of the local union No,\n30 Amalgamated Sheet Metal Workers' international Association, Is a mattor of considerable importance to trades' unions. J.\nH. Kennedy, vico-presldent of the International association, was served In an action by the Metallic Roofing Company,\nand the master In chambers on appeal\nrefused to set the service aside. An appeal\nfrom tills decision was dismissed by chief\njustice Meredith, but a further appeal by\nthe union to the divisional court hns been\nsuccessful, and the service hns been set\naside. The court holds that the law with\nregard to the serving of processes applies\nto corporations, firms and Individuals, and\nthat a trades union which is a voluntary\nassociation not Incorporated does not come\nunder any of these heads. The question\nas to whether a trades union may bo sued\nIs still undecided, nnd has been left for\nfuture argument. The point decided Is-\nthat tho serving of the writ, a necessnry\npreliminary process In such a suit cannot\nbe performed. In England tho celebrated\nTaff Vale decision has affirmed the principle that unions registered under the\ntrades union act of 1871 can be sued.\nAfter use of the second bottle I ejtper-\nlicnccd a happy change. 1 could see and\nfeel that your wonderful medicine was\ndoing its work well.

Tlie prisoner was\nbrought up yesterday before police magistrate Crease on the charge of stealing\nfirewood from attackers along the lake\nfront, and while admitting that he took\nthe wood, Indignantly denied that it was\nstealing, because he said; It hud been given\nby God.\nAn investigation Drought to light a most\nremarkable story in connection. Klench\ncame to thc city from Itossluno oter a\nyear ago. Finding n furnished shack\nvacant on the water front lie took possession and has lived there since. A\nnumber of shaekers having moved out last\nfall and winter, Klench took possession of\nthe vacant buildings and rented, and sold\nthem, when possible. Complaints having\nreached the police department that Klench\nwas stealing wood, chief Jarvis went down\non. Tuesday to Investigate. He knocked\nat the door of Klench's shack, but was\ndenied admission. Thc occupant slated\nthat he was in bed and had no wish to see\nthe chief. His replies to other questions\nresulted in a warrant being Issued and\nhis Inter appearance at the police court.\nAfter he had beon taken, back to the cells\nhe was visited by Dr. Rose and a reporter, and the story ho told was decidedly\nunique.\n\"No,\" ho said, \"I never stole anything\nfrom anybody. Everything belongs to God,\nand I only took what He gave me. Before\nT knew that I was His son I was living\nin, Rossland. I wns out of work and\nprayed much for a job. I got It and bore\ntestimony in the Salvation army there to\nthe benefits of prayer. But Satan did not\nlike It, and the Lord told me that he was\nstirring up trouble for me. Well, I worked hard, but the foreman of the mine he\nfired me, or he thought he did, but it was\ntho devil did it. Then I came to Nelson.\nTho Lord told me I need not work, thnt\nHe would keep me, but my faith was not\nstrong enough and not having any money\nI took a job Shovelling* conl. Thnt night\nafter finishing ft I felt that tho Lord hnd\nbeen right and decided not to work any\nmore. He told me to go nnd take a cabin\nand others near It, and I did. Then the\nLord sent the devil to buy a cabin and I\nsold one to him for seven dollnrs. I sold\nhim others, too, but he kept coming and\nthen he took one of the cabins that had\nbeen given to me nnd said It was his, and\nwould) not give ft up. Then \"he started to\ncut It up for firewood. I did not like this\nbut the Lord told me it was all right,\nand that after the wood was all cut I\ncould have it. I took some, and now the\ndevil has got me arrested.\"\nIn answer to questions on other subjects Klench gave perfectly rational replies. Tho police havo known for some\ntlmo about Klench's peculiar belief, but\naa ho had not previously Interfered with\nany ono and seemed perfectly harmless\nho wns left alone. It hod been thought\nthat the cabins In question renlly belonged to him.

The present\nreport would show tbat these prognostications bave proved correct.\nThe importance of this strike, should\nit be officially confirmed, can hardly be\noverestimated. The failure to find pay\nore in the first portion of the vein encountered at the 1,000-foot level was a\nblow not only to this mining district,\nbut to the province as a whole, as up\nto that time the Ymlr mine was considered in London as the representative\nBritish Columbia mine, and any doubts\nas to the persistence of its ore body to\ndepth was a blow to the credit of the\nprovince as a mining field. Up to the\npresent the great bulk of the ore mined\nhas come from the upper three levels, a\nfurther portion has been taken from the\nfourth and fifth levels, where tbe greater\nportion of the ore blocked out now lies,\nand a very little only from the sixth\nlevel. Below the fifth level the ore was\nfound to have materially decreased ln\nits gold tenure, and the supposition was\nthat the shift had at this level passed\nout of, and to the west of, the pay ore,\nwhich would ultimately be found to\nhave nevertheless persisted to this\ndepth, though further to the east. The\nlong drift to the east from the foot of\nthe upraise in the 1,000-foot level Is now\nreported to have tapped the pay ore\nagain.\n' From this it will be seen that an immense body of almost virgin ore has\nbeen demonstrated between the fifth and\ntenth levels, equal in extent to the whole\nof the ore hitherto mined during the last\nthree years added to the reserves now\nblocked out. The present low price of\nthe shares Is based on ore in sight above\nthe fifth level, and if the present report\nshould meet with confirmation, there\ncan be little doubt that the price of the\nshares will rapidly regain its old standing. Between the fifth and tenth levels\nalone there is ore sufficient to run the\nfull equipment of stamps for several\nyears, while there is no reason to doubt\nthat the ore will persist to even much\ngreater depth than 1,000 feet.\nApart from this later report, the last\nofficial returns published indicate a decided improvement in the output The\ntotal receipts for January figure out at\n$8.60 per ton of ore crushed, a figure\nwhich is less than the actual by the\nvalue of the concentrates made but not\nshipped. Of this figure \u00a54.85 was saved\non the plates and $1.60 in the cyanide,\nwhile the concentrates shipped showed a\nnet value of $34 per ton. From these\nfigures It would appear that the actual\ngross value of the ore handled during\nthe month was slightly in excess of $10\nper ton.\nA PERILOUS TRIP.\nTwo Mariners Who Trudged Over Ninety\nMiles Across Snow Fields.\nSt. Johns, Nfld.

Graves, general manager of the Granby Company, nfter spending several days ln the camp,\nduring whicli nn Inspection of the company's properties was made, has left .for\nSpokane, nnd thenco to Montreal In a\nfew days.\nAsked In regard to tho shipments of\ncoko for the company's smelter at Grand\nForks, Mr. Graves said that t*ne shipments\nof coke from Vancouver Island were not\ncoming In very regularly or satisfactorily,\nand thnt until they did, there was no\nthought ot running moro than two furnaces at the reduction works. The C. P.\nR. strike, of course, is affecting thc handling of tlie coast coke shipments, but a\nlittle is coming In. Mr. Graves seemed to\nthink that there were excellent chances\nof the Crow's Nest coal miners* strike be-'\ning satisfactorily settled by the commission appointed by the Provincial Mining\nAssociation for fiin-t purpose, which is\nnow in session nt Fernle. If not so settled\nit would probably menn the nlmost entire\ncurtnilment of the mining operations In\nthe quartz mining districts.\nYesterday was tho monthly pay day at\nthe Granby mines, when over $80,000 was\ndistributed In wages alone, being the Inrg-\nest in several months.\nMadden\u2014M.
