On the basis\nof Imports which actually entered Into\nconsumption, and Canadian produce only,\nexported, the trade for the year amounted\nto 1448,188,999, as compared with $398,811,368\nfor the previous year or an Increase of\n$49,377,641. On this basis our trade has\nmore than doubled In the last seven years,\nas appears from the following figures:\nTrade   of  1903    $488,188,999\n[Trade   of   1896   , ,220,602,817\nIt may bo Interesting to note at this\npoint that during the 18 years of the national policy the Increase was only $60,000,-\n000.

Since the Inception of the liberal policy the exports under this head\nhave more than doubled. In 1896 they amounted to only 99,365,384.\nTho free list, which largely comprises\nraw materials for manufacturers, shows a\nremarkable expansion In Imports, thereby\nIndicating groat activity In manufacturing circles, In 1903 the free goods Imported, less coin and bullion, amounted to\n$88,023,738, an Increase of $10,000,000 over\ntho previous year, and of $50,000,000 over\n1896. As an evidence of the Increase ln\nthe Importation of raw material the following Items may be cited:\nRaw cotton-Imported ln 1903, 67,652,145\npounds; whereas ln 1896 the Importations\namounted to only 33,479,358 pounds.\nThe value of the raw hides and skins\nimported for the use of tanners last year\nwas $5,661,331, as compared with $1,945,914\nln 1896.\nOver one millions tons more bituminous\ncoal wns Imported into the country last\nyear for manufactures than in 1896.\nCrude rubber was Imported lost year to\nthe amount of $1,562,998, as against $862,095\nln 1896.\nThe exports of Canadian products for\nlast year were $37 per hend.

But\nvery little work has been done as yet towards developing the new claims, nearly\nevery one being busily engaged ln looking\nfor new ledges.   He said that considerable\nmischief Is likely to ensue from the Indiscriminate   staking   being   done   everywhere In the vicinity of the richer strikes.\nIn some places clnlms have been staked\nhalf a dozen  times,  tho  locators having\njust put In their stakes nt the most con'\nvenlent point and then gone oh* to record.\nThis Is likely to lead later to many complications,  as  when  some  Innocent  purchaser of a claim goes up to examine It\nhe Is likely to find that all that is coming\nto him are the three location stakes.  Many\nspeculators have staked claims right and\nleft without any regard as to whether there\nfs any mineral tn the vicinity and  then\nheaded for some city to find a purchaser.\nOf the discoveries that havo been described Mr. Fletcher states that the surface showings are undoubtedly very good.\nOn the Gilbert and Marquis claim, where\ntho original strike was made, the lead has\nbeon exposed for a distance of twenty feet,\nand a shaft Is being sunk which Is now\ndown about nine feet.   So far as the shaft\nhas gone the ore continues rich, with' no\nsigns of change.   On  the other claims\npractically nothing has been done except\nstripping the leads hero and there to test\ntheir continuity on the surface.   Some of\nthe ones who are sceptical as to the rlch-\nnes of the new finds, which they have not\nexamined, have expressed tbe opinion that\nIt will prove to be a quartz capping over\nbeds of iron ore.   Mr. Fletcher does not\nconsider this theory as probable ln any\nway, as there are very few Indications of\nIron In any of tho ore.   Tho richest rock\nstruck  yet Is on  the claim  held by  O.\nHamilton nnd nssoclates.   They have exposed   some   extremely   handsome   white\nquartz In which the gold Is visible everywhere.\nAccommodations at Poplar creek aro still\nvery scarce for the traveller, but lumber\nIs now on the ground for a hotel and store,\nwhich will be run up as quickly as possible.\nThe American company which purchased a number of placer claims on tho\nLardeau river early In the Bprlng nre getting ln machinery to open up work, and\nhave a force of men engaged In cleaning\nout the wagon road running between\nPoplar creek and the second crossing of\nthe river, which skirts their property for\nsome distance.\nDEATH CHEATS HANGMAN.\n[Special to The Daily News.]\nOttawa, July 28,\u2014The Grand Trunk Paclflo contract will be signed at 8 o'clock\ntonight.

Gordon, the reported leader of the gang, who\nhad been sentenced to 46 years for robbery,\ndeserted his followers soon after they\nleft the prison. It Is not known where he\nwent. A negro convict named Seavls, who\nwas reported wounded, appears not to\nhave been Injured.\nThe outlaws who remain together are\nmaking for the Sierra Nevada mountains\nclosely pursued by the sheriffs of three\ncounties, backed by posses, and assisted\nby a company of mllltla. About twenty\nguards from the Folsom prison are also*\nengaged In the chase. A desperate battle\nIs anticipated. The work of the pursuing:\nposses has been rendered less difficult\nthan was anticipated by the unexpected\naction of the convicts who today released\nall of tho men they held as hostages.\nEleven convicts are now believed to be\nnear Placervllle, not far from the mountains where they evidently hope to And\nrefuge.\nThe fight at Pilot Hill last night between\nthe convicts and their pursuers seems to\nbe a more serious affair than at first reported. After they had looted a provision\nstore the convicts were practically surrounded by a strong posse. All four horses of the of convicts were shot and one or\nthe criminals was killed outright The\noutlaws raised a white flag and marched\nup the road with the guards and others\nwhom they had captured on each side of\nthem.

The\nparty Is moving towards Coloma, whero\nthe citizens have armed  themselves and\nare preparing to resist attack.   They havo\nbeon warned of the advance of the convicts and will old tho authorities to put\nan end to their existence.   It Is reported\nby tho driver of a stage which passed between Pilot Hill and Coloma that ho saw\nthe convIctB walking close together.   They\nall  woro citizen's clothing nnd  were accompanied   by  men   who  woro  evidently\nresidents of the vicinity, whom they had\nevidently forced to go with them as guides.\nA possce from  Placervllle,  under sheriff\nBostwlck,   was   reported   not   far  behind\nthem,   following  their   trail.    The  result\nof the fight between tho convicts and tho\nofficers at 7 o'clock last night near Pilot\nHill was the death of Fred Howard, a convict,   killed   outright   and   the   wounding\nof another convict, a negro nnmed Seavls.\nTho cororner at Placervllle, at the request!\nof the prison officials, will hold an Inquest\non tho dead convict.   When last seen the\nconvicts were In citlzen'B clothing, whllo\ntholr prisoners wore the stripes.   Tho latter appeared to be having a hard time of\nIt, as they were heavily laden with bundles and ammunition.   The latest information Is to the effect that another encounter\nhas taken place between the fleeing convicts and their pursuers, resulting In tho\ndeath of John Allison, a convict, and another whose name Is unknown.

Itaa-\ninSe       ,. -.    \u2014.  \u2022-..  _J ....     a\nCANADA'S   NATIONAL  PARK.\nThe programme outlined by Mr. hang-\nmulr, chairman of the Niagara Falls Park\ncommission Is of more than provincial interest. The world at large has come to\nregard Niagara Falls aa part of the common property of all and anything that\naffects that famous spot cannot but be of\nalmost world wide interest The Idea of\na Canadian national park at the falls took\ndefinite shape somo ten years ago. Marvels have been accomplished since that\ntime, but the work is not half done. The\nidea now entertained as to what the park\nshall bo Is far different to the original conception. It has increased In magnificence\nand even the establishing of power plants\nwill not prevent the result of the work\nthe commissioners have ln hand proving a\nsuccess and making the place a thing of\nbeauty and a joy forever. The history\nof the park is full of interest, and Mr.\nLangmuir reviewed it In his speech at the\nbanquet tendered to the delegates of the\nAmerican park at the falls recently. He\npointed out that although the United\nStates had taken action on their side, It\nwas not until 18S5 that three commissioners were appointed by the province, of\nwhom he regretted he was the only survivor, to select and apprise lands for a\nprovincial park. The area was consequently limited to the strip lying along\nthe river from the Clifton house, one mile\nsouth. Nature had, however, aennea a\nwider area for park purposes, and on the\ncommlsisoners' recommendation the strip\nwas widened to the bluff and lengthened\nto two and one-half miles, debentures for\n1600,000 being issued to pay the cost The\nwhole expenditure to be met by the commission then reached $40,000 per annum.\nTo meet this an admission fee was at first\nproposed, but fortunately abandoned. The\nalternative chosen was to grant franchises\nand against the objections raised he confidently asserted that no violence would\nbe done to the most advanced aesthetic\ntaste. First an electric railway was permitted, at a rental of $10,000 per annum.\nThis was a vital necessity to enable the\npublio to view the scenic grandeur. Another franchise for a similar amount was\ngranted for supplying meals and taking\nphotographs. The third class was franchises for the generation and transmission of electrical power, which now\nbrought in 5CG.0OO, and which would bo increased to about a quarter of a million\nwhen the various plants were completed*\nThe Americans gave their power privileges away. Ontario has made bargains\nby which the province, by way of the\ncommission, will receive ln time a quarter\nof a million, perhaps more, of revenue.\nBesides this, it is no longer possible, owing to the location of manufacturing Industries, of railways, and of civic communities, for the Americans to preserve or\nreclaim their river front beyond what they\nhave done ln the Immediate vicinity of the\nfalls. To Canada is left the providing of\na park and driveway along the whole\nlength of Niagara river which will be, ns\nwo have said, not only a provincial and\nCanadian national asset, but an International one as well. Indeed It will be a gift\nfrom Ontario to the world\u2014for Niagara\nfalls belongs to the tourists of the world\nas much as to the people of Ontario and\nNew York state.\nTHE BELT MURDER.\nPolice Claim to Have Proof Against\nCashel\u2014History of the Case.\nCalgary, Alberta, July 28,-Ernest Cashel,\nat present under sentence In Stoney Mountain penitentiary, Is now charged with the\nmurder of a farmer named Belt, who lived\non Troll creek, some miles east of Red\nDeer. Tho alleged murder was committed\nlast autumn. Cashel Is a young man not\nyet of age. He camo down from Ponoka,\nand while here passed a worthless cheque\non one of the merchants. Chief English\nwont north and arrested the young man\nnear his home. This side of Red Deer\nhe Jumped through a window while tho\ntrain was running at full speed and escaped. For some weeks there was a merry\nclmso, and from every quarter there were\nreports that Cashel had been seen, or\nthat ho had commltteel some desperate\nnet, but tt was Impossible for the authorities to lay their hands on him. At one\ntime he was settled at a breed camp out\nor Calgary. Finally he went a bit too far\nund  was gathered  In by  the authorities\nand was sentenced on charges of forgery\nand horse stealing and on another charge.\nAfter his sentence he created a scene in\nthe city driving to the barracks wrapped\nIn his mother's arms, both weeping audibly.\nShortly after the escape of Cashel, the\nman Belt disappeared. He went suddenly,\nand there was not the slightest Indication\nof his whereabouts. From the fact that\nCashel hod ben seen ln the district, and\nlater he had in his posesslon a horse and\nsaddle belonging to the missing man It is\nbelieved that he knew something of his\nwhereabouts. But nothing In the way of\na charge could be made until the man or\nhis body were found, The police then began to make a search, and a large reward\nwas offered for the recovery of the body.\nA very close search was made of Trail\ncreek from end to end. Until last week\nthere was no trace of the missing man.\nThen some people near the mouth came\nupon the dead body ot a man. An inquest\nwas held, and a relative of the missing\nman positively identified him as Belt. A\nbullet was found ln his shoulder. The\ncoroner's jury listened to some of the evidence which the police had secured and\nbrought in a verdict of wilful murder. The\npreliminary hearing will be held In Calgary or Red Deer as soon as Cashel can\nbe brought from the penitentiary. Cashel\noriginally came from Montana.\nGREAT BUSINESS.\nAll Railroads Are Looking For a Largo\nIncrease In Freights\u2014Rates Higher.\nChicago, July 28.\u2014In the opinion of well-\nposted traffic officials all lines of business\ncould not be In a much more healthy condition, Naturally, attention Ib concentrated upon western territory particularly\nthat ln which the great crop-growing areas\nwhich serve as a guide for future business operations. Careful Investigation has\nfailed to disclose anything ln the prospective conditions which would Justify anxiety\nin New York's financial district In the\nnorthwest railroad men are equally optimistic and fully as confident that not\nonly Is the crop outlook encouraging, but\nthe indications point to a greater volume\nof traffic for the railroads than was assured one year ago.\nIn the southwest traffic conditions are\nrapidly becoming such that officials say\nthey have difficulty In handling It promptly and are looking for a car Bhortage earlier than usual, although they claim to be\nbetter prepared for tonnage than ever\nbefore. There Is now a great volume of\nmerchandise going to the recently flooded\ndistricts and the railroads touching those\npoints are overburdened with traffic additional to that which has been pouring\nInto other parts of tho country for weekB,\nOfficials of the lines directly west from\nChicago say their reports from all distributing points could not be of a more encouraging nature.\nThe west Is consuming an increasing\ntonnage of everything manufactured and\nvast quantities of supplies are moving forward now that were held back by the cold\nspell In June. The southern lines also report a steadily Increasing business in both\ndirections and officials say that they have\nfew, if any Idle cars.\nMORE TROUBLE FOR TURKEY,\nSalonica, European Turkey, July 28.\u2014\nDespatches received here say that 18 Bulgarian officers have left Sofia for Salonica\nfor the purpose of renewing the dynamite\noutrages.\nDOWNES'   HOTEL.

In this they were successful. Nothing will add more to the permanency of\nthe silver-lead Industry than the plans\nlaid down at the meeting. The principal\npoint attained was to secure the sanction\nof the silver-lead producers to pool the output of their respective properties. By\ndoing this they present a united front in\ndisposing of their ores more advantageously, whereas by shipping the old way\u2014\npolling im^vidifally\u2014they were ^compjal-j\nled to accept the terms and rates ofTered\nby the smelters. To further facilitate tho\ndisposal of their ores, they appointed a\ncommittee  empowered to dispose of the\nores ln such a manner as they see fit and\nto the smelting concerns, whether In Canada or the United States, offering the most\nlucrative rates. For instance one smelter\nmay desire a grade of ore running high\nin lead, while another would prefer one\nwith a much lower percentage of tho same\nmetal. The same method will be applied\nto other metals of the camp. Ultimately\nthis process will provo the salvation of the\ncamp, while at the same time It will put\nthe silver-lead mines In an independent\nposition regarding tho troatmont of our\nores.\nAfter drawing up the preliminaries attending organization, the mlno owners\nadjourned their meeting until Tuesday,\nAugust 4th, when the proceedings of the\nmeeting will receive final ratification.\nDEFAULTER'S   BODY   FOUND.\nDabbled In tho Stock Market and Then ln\ntho River.\nMontreal, July 28.\u2014The body of Alfred\nFournier, tho defaulting cashier of the\nRecorder's court, who disappeared last\nFriday, was found this morning floating in\nthe river opposite this city.

Miner Says They Are in Sight\nIf Coke Is Available.\nIn an Interview given to the Montrenl\nGazette by S. H. C. Miner, president of\nthe Granby company, that gentleman, who\nhas Just returned from an extended visit\nto the company's mines and smelter in\nthe Boundary country, Is reported as follows:\n\"I said that If they would give us all the\ncoke required we would soon give a dividend,\" was the answer made by S. H. C.\nMiner, who had just reached the city from\ntho west, accompanied by his assistant,\nA. C. Flumerfelt. Barring the uncertainty\nof the coke supply, the president of the\nGranby Consolidated seems eminently satisfied with the present condition of affairs,\nboth at Grand Forks, where the Granby\nsmelter Is located, and at Phoenix, the site\nof the company's immense ore bodies.\nFour furnaces, he said, wero now running, and two more are well under way.\nIn fact, In six weeks' time, the president\nsays the Granby smelter will be In a position to treat from 2,000 to 2,500 tons of ore\nper day, while there will be sufficient\nequipment nt the mines to produce a dally\nsupply of rock equaling 6,000 tons.\nThen, he says, all construction work will\ncense, and people will understand the Im\nportance of this statement when It id\nknown that the Granby company have\nspent this year at tiie smelter and at tho\nmines no less than 1300,000, all of which\nhas been taken from the earnings of the\ncompany.\nBoing asked as to the prospects of a dividend In the near future, Mr. Miner repeated that as soon as the coke question\nwas solved, the dividend matter would be\nno longer a question of speculation, but of\ncalculation.\nTho president Is a man of action rather\nthan words, yet he evidently feols much\ngratified at the result of the recent vlBit\nto the scene of the Granby's operations\nby the American copper kings and at the\nverdict of these experts, which has so\nabundantly vindicated Mr. Miner's policy\nall along the line,\n\"Is there anything In the story,\" he was\nasked, \"that the Americans will probably\nsecure heavier holdings in the Granby?\"\n\"Of course there Ib,\" was the president's prompt reply, \"and they will probably secure control, as Canadians will\nnever fully realize, until It Is too late,\nthat It is the greatest proposition of the,\nkind on the continent.\"\nSOMEBODY WAS TALKING.\nColumbus,  Ohio, July 28,\u2014An  explosion\nof natural gas In the rear of Garden's\nsaloon today killed two women and injured half a dozen men.\nHOTEL ARRIVALS.\nHume\u2014Mrs. C. ir, Abercrombie, Silver-\nton; S.
