They were issued to the\nheads of foreign missions only, and\nambassador Bryce, who had then only\njust returned from Canada, had important business lo transact at Washington,\nmaking it Impossible for him to absent\nhimself, especially as ho had to attend\nthe national arbitration and peace conference at New York the following\nweek. Continuing, Mr. Runclman\npointed out that neither the German,\nAustria-Hungarian, French nor Russian\nembassies were represented at Pittsburg.\n'Oxford and Cambridge universities were\nrepresented, and Mr. Runciman thought\nthat the presence of representatives of\nthe leading educational Institutions of\nthis country was the most suitable and\nmast convenient form of representation\n\u25a0on such an occasion.\nThe Pittsburg question also came up\nin the house of lords today, lord Keith\nlot* Fyfe, complaining of ambassador\n\u25a0Bryce'- absence, snld It might be alleged\n-thai Oreat Britain had stood aloof, ant\n\u201et would be most disappointing io see\n.the late lord, pauncefote's great work of\nre-establishing a good understanding\nbetween the United States and Great\nBritain, ended by nn act of indifference,\nwhich might be misconstrued liuo\n, something stronger.\nLord Fltzmaurlce, under secretary for\nforeign affairs, repeated the explanation made by Mr. Runclman tn the\nhouse of commons, adding that there\nwas no man In the whole diplomatic\nservice to whom a great education occasion like one of this kind would more\nappeal to, than Mr. Bryce, who deeply\nregretted that the had been unable U)\n; attend the ceremony at Pittsburg.\nINEWSCH00LLO4NBYLAW\nFINAL ADOPTION HELD OVER UNTIL\nMAY G\nCHANGES   PROPOSED   IN   STAFF   OF\nELECTRICIANS\nThero wns n lengthy moetlng of the city\ncouncil last night, lu-tlntf for oyer three\nhours. th<* principal subjects discussed be*\ning ihe school bylaw ami a change in the\n\u25a0_*!.<\u25a0 trfpjtl  stuff of  the  city.\nDr. Rose wan the only nbsenteo from tho\nsrm-tltiR.

April _2.\u2014-On Saturday at a\nmass meeting a requisition signed by\ndome _0U0 electors of the city and\ncounty of St .John, was presented to\nHou. William Pugsley, premier of New\nBrunswick, asking him to he the liberal\ncandidate tor lhe seat in the house ot\ncommons made vacant by the death of\nA. a. Stockton.\nMr. Pugsley accepted amid enthusiastic cheers, ami said if ihe nomination\nwere tendered lilm he would accept.\nln the course of his speech he said:\n\"I am one of those who hope and believe that the charge- brought against\nHon. H. R. Emmerson will be proved\nfalse. 1 have heard It said thut this\nmovement is hostile to him. It is not\nso.

Chief Jarvls said ne\nwas in receipt of numerous complaints\ntrom various people of tlie unruly conduct or some of the boye of the city,\nwho are apparently allowed to run\nwithout restraint on the streets at all\nhours of the day and night and In this\nway learned evil ways. He had mado It\na point to lake up some of these offenders and now brought up live boys, William Boyes, Roy Miller, Jack Grant,\nWilliam Hoskin and Lloyd Negbourn\nfor being out at night after the ringing\nof the curfew. Mr. Crease read the\nboys, who promised amendment, a severe lecture and fined them $l and costs,\n|3.2!i in all or In default. 10 days Imprisonment, warning them that the next\nboys appearing before him on a like\ncharge would be moro severely handled.\nThe worst rase, however, was that of\nP. Oglnsky, who was charged with deliberately breaking windows in a house\noh Carbonate street, owned by W. W.\nBeer, in company wilh another boy\nnamed W. McBrlde, who will be charged at a later dnte. The parents of the\nboy offered to pay the damage done\nwhich amounted to |4, but the court u*d\nnot take this view, of the ease and\nordered the boy to pay $2. half of Uie\ncost of tbe damage, $10 for a fine and\n$2.25'' costs, or in default one month's\nImprisonment. The linos were paid In\nall cases.\n(Spi-cf-l lo The Dully News)\nVancouver, April 22,-A. H. B Mac-\nGowan, M.P.P., interviewed here llilR\nmorning, gave his opinion of the work\not the session at Victoria.\n\"It has been the inosi barren oi* j-ort.r\nto Lhe country that could noss'lbly be\nImagined.\" said MacGowan. \"n is disgusting to think ihat 42 white men\nshould be called upon to lose some seven\nweeks in doing nothing. Estimates were\npassed; they ran from excess to disiricts\nrepresented by conservatives, wno\nmight have been expected to show independence down to the reverse in districts represented by opponents of tiio\ngovernment; there was the usual unlimited amount of amending laws hearing on professional work, particularly\nin legal lines, really making statutes\neven more difficult of Interpretai-ou.\nWhere before, you would need one or\ntwo lawyers to Interprets them, now\nyou need many more. The timber bill\nwas pushed upon the house much In opposition to the best element of the conservative party and practically had 'o\nbe withdrawn.\"\n\"What about the University bill?\"\nasked the reporter.\n\"The University bill, which would\nnever have appeared but for pr-e-flection\npromises made to opponents of iho\nRoyal institution, should have been\nknocked out and could readily havi*\nbeen, if Vancouver men had willed It,\nWhen tt was hastily presented. I was deceived Into the boiler that it wns in\nline with the work being done In Vancouver and agreeable to our board of\nschool control as well as to McG111.\nLater, I found my mistake, and hastened to impress ray -Olleagues with tlio*\nTact, but to no avail. Thoy were all\ngood party men and seemed anxious !\u25a0>\ndo homage to tho member from Atlin,\nwho had charge or the bill, In preference to joining mo against the bill.\nwhich I tried to explain was being forced through by the opponents of Vancouver's interests, Including the minister of education, who has always been\nopposed to the city's odurational advancement. He showed It -particularly\nwhen the Royal institute was coming\nhere.\n\"It was a peculiar thins to see the\nman who had been elected by some\nhundreds of votes, or less, and pitchforked into office by the premier, occupying a position against the wishes\nof nine-tenths of the conservative party,\npushing through a t*ill granting what\nmay mean ton million dollars worth, or\neven much more, of the people's property for clnss education. There Is a\nfurther blow to our Roynl institute in\ntho hill jusl presented by Thomson,\nM. P. for Victoria, which praetlonllv\npermits making all high schools equal\nio our college. There is no earthly\nnecessity for this as the earlier bill\nprovided for everything covered by if.\nbut tho deprecating of our schools.\nOur good party men will bob up on *f*\nmore against Vancouver. The minister\nof education would no doubt have introduced this bill If ho had not had such n\nhard time with his other Ill-considered\nlegislation.\n\"Apart from finance, iho legislation\nnresentcd by tho departments tn the\nhouse was miserably prepared and Into\nIn being presented, glvlna ample evidence of the fart that cabinet reconstruction Is absolutely necessary. Tbo\nfact that ono minister represents lands\nand works (whicli ought lo be two departments), tOROther with iho attorney\ngeneralship .explains in a measure why\nthe departmental work nt Victoria is\nbeing done as at present.\n\u25a0\u25a0'This year there should have heen\nintroduced and laid on the fahlo n proper timber bill, a civil sendee bill and\na new municipal hill; also there should\nhave been appointed a committee to ro-\nvise nnd consolidate our stnturos. with\nnower to hire tho best commercial and\nlegal ability In the country with a view\nor having our laws, particularly thoso\nbearing on commerce, mnde clear and\nworkable, brlnglnr** about less necessltv\nTor litigation. Thorp are many other\nmatters that nn active business legislature might readily have taken ' up.

It appears that Mr. Charles\nLlndmark, of Kevelstoke, a well known\nlumber man, who was one of the most\nactive workers for government candidates In the late campaign, made one of\na delegation to Victoria to protest\nagainst, the Increased royalty.

DAVIS' LONG\nSUMMING UP.\nS. S. TAYLOR FOLLOWS WITH CLOSE\nANALYSIS  OP EVIDENCK\n(Special Correspondence)\nVictoria, April 19.\u2014Would chief justice Hunter have decided the Star vs.\nWhite case as he did at the trial, dismissing Mr. Harris' company's action\nwith costs, If his lordahlp had known\nwhat the new work done since the\nJudgment would show up? One would\nnot think so after listening for a day\nand a half to counsel's argument on\nbehalf of the plaintiffs before the full\ncourt.\nMr. Davis closed his argument this\nmorning after speaking for a little\nmore than an hour and S. S. Taylor\nfollowed In the same interest, occupying\nthe attention of the court until 5 p.m.\nToday Mr. Davis contented himself with\nan analysis of Bochmer's evidence\nchiefly, and did not continue his pointed attack on Mr. Elmendorf s testimony,\nmade so pronouncedly all yesterday.\nDavis seized on points where lie claimed Bochmer differed from all the other\nexperts produced by the defendants,\nnotably Elmendorf and professor Parks,\nand taking up the Bochmer theory he\ncontrasted it with that advanced by the\nother experts in the same interest and\nclaiming that the only conclusion thai\ncould be reached upon perusal of'all the\ndefendants' testimony was that If\nBochmer's view was the correct one\nthen all the defendants' other witnesses\nwere mistaken upon vitally important\npoints. In concluding his address Mr.\nDavis laid great stress upon the fact\nthat the plaintiffs' three expert witnesses Fowler, Slzer and Atwater had\nstaked their reputations at the flrst trial\nby stating empnatlcally what would he\nfound If the new work then asked for\nwas done, had maintained one attitude\nthroughout all the long litigation, and\nwere now found to have heen conslsten-\nly correct while the reverse must truthfully be said or the defendants' experts\nand their testimony, leaving an Irrist-\nahle conclusion to be drawn by the court\non the question of reliability of the different seta of witnesses.\nMr. Taylor followed for tho rest of\nthe day and had not concluded when\nthe court rose this evening. He followed upon the broad lines laid out by Mr.\nDavis but going Into the conflict of evidence, and the analysis of tbe whole\ncase most minutely, giving chapter ami\nverse for all his statements and Incidentally showing that his careful aud\nable preparation and presentment of the\nplaintiffs' case must have entailed an\nenormous amount of hard steady work.\nHis address was mainly a collection ol\nthe various points of evidence takeu\nfrom the hundreds of pages of matter\nand connected up with brief argument\nIllustrating the points upon which he\nlaid special stress, as he went along.\nMr. Bodwell was in court today for\nthe first time since last Friday. He will\ncommence a lengthy summing up of the\ndefendants' case when Mr. Taylor-concludes tomorrow forenoon.\nBeyond a slight protest from Mr. Justice Morrison against, the reading of\nlong extracts from the evidence the\nproceedings today wero without any\nmarked Incident.\nContinuing Irom yestorday Mr. Davis commenced his part of the argument\ntoday by referring to Isaacson's evidence at the trial, Isaacson being a shift\nbass in the employ of defendants when\nNo. 5 level was run. He swore that the\nStar vein between well defined slate\nwalls turned around to the north at\nthe flrst turn shown in the plan.\nIsaacson was given as a practical miner's view, It agreeing with the experts\nas to the turn of the vein as against its\nbeing cut off. The evidence of Pox and\nDavis, two working miners, to the same\ntffeet as Isaacson, was also read by\ncounsel with some caustic comment is\nto vJl-0 a worn-to existence of walls\naroui-d the turn to the south walls\nwhich <hc ~ev7 W\u00b0rt* uliS Prove'l <\u25a0\u2022'* not\nand cotM not exist as there was a 28\nfoot flssu*- -there.\nMr. Boc.Hnwir's evidence given ln3t\nweek was ti'\"*** taken up. Mr, Bochmer,\n\u25a0-.aid Mr. DavN** -clearly differed from\nElmendorf and JParks on many material points as to .hs course of the Star\nvein, and as to UiV \u00bb\u00bbur8e of tho black\nfissure at the northern -extension of the\nblack fissure, Bochmer Hgr-Od that the\nfissure continued on north, \u00bbs proved\nby the new work thero, and lhat tbe\n\"main vein\" turns to the west. not.\nwhere Elmendorf and all the defendants' experts say it does, but at a point\nIn the black fissure over 120 feet further south. He said the ground -had\nnot heen opened up to show the course\nwest of the main vein, where aa all the\ndefendants' witnesses declared that the\nvein turned west at point B. and along\ntho workings as shown In the plan. Mr.\nBochmer's view supports the plaintiffs'\ncontention in a double way. He agrees\nas to the continuation to the north of\nthe black fissure and that there is no\nevidence of the alleged Star vein turning west into Silversmith ground at\nthe point where the other experts of\nthe defendants say it docs.\nTaking Mr. Bochmer's statement as\ncorrect that there Is a turning to the\nwest of the Star vein where he says, the\nStar vein must be 200 feet wide to the\nwest, the witness and Elmendorf admitted this without dispute, it was Impossible that Mr. Bochmer's \"main\nvein\" extending -to tho west through\n-unexplored country, could by any conceivable means be identified with El-\nmeudorf's course of the Star vein to the\nwest turning at point B. If Bochmer is\nright, Elmendorf is wrong, and when\nElmendorf snys the two views are reconcilable he shatters his own reputation\nas a reliable witness. Mr. Bochmer said\nsomething entirely new when he found\nanother turning point to the west of\nthe Star vein then the one sworn to\nto date by all the other defendants' wlt-\ntuma. The chief result is that the conrf\nmust find there Is no reliable evidence\nof thn continuation west of the Star\nvein at the point B, the northern turning point.\n.    Bochmer declared frequently that the\n1 geological conditions found iu the\nground under review could be accounted for In several possible ways and he\nHIT!\nIt's the long shot that shows up\nthe quality of both gun and shells.\nDOMINION AMMUNITION\nwill stand the severest test.\nAst your dealer for Crown Shells\nloRil-l with tlif- Hamilton Powder Co's\n\" Snap Shot\" Black Powder, or Sovereign\n(Nobel's Empire Hulk Smokeles-*.)

Mr. Bodwell to date\nhas always denied the existence of\ndrag ore, and has added that drag ore\nwas something that all mining men\nknow when they see it.\nMr. bodwell\u2014I did not mean hand\nsamples.   I mean't drag ore In the mine.\nMr, Davis continuing said the plaintiffs had been ridiculed time and again\ntor not producing samples of drag oro\nIn court at the first trial. When a\nilozen or more samples are now 'produced Bochmer declined to swear whether\nor not the samples were drag ore or\nnot. If tho plaintiffs prove drag ore ln\nthe black fissure it Is unquestionable\nevidence of a fault, that is that the\nMuck fissure, is a fault fissure and the\nplaintiff-' cut off theory ts confirmed on\n\u25a0 he one hand and the continuity of the\nStar vein is disproved on the olher,\nlence the importance of drag ore.\n'Jounsel took up Mr. Bochmer's seven\n\/easons for his explanations of the geological conditions found to exist in the\nmine workings and In them found much\nfound evidenco in plaintiffs' favor.\nRunning through this summary of\nBochmer's, counsel referred to eontra-\nllctlon by other expert evidence on such\npoints as no signs being found of\n\u25a0itrlntion Jn the workings, the vague\ntheoretical suggestions offered to prop\ntip others, and the want of any evidence\nu> support the rest.\nAs to the black fissure being a fault\nfissure Mr. Davis referred to Mr. 121-\nmemlorf's photographs* of tbe new\nwork In the southern extension, \"prepared with Mr. Elmendorf b well known\nskill,\" and declared that Clork's evidence disproved all that Mr. Elmendorf sought to prove, Mr, Clark was an\nIndependent witness. Ho swore tnat the\npiece of smooth faced rock with ore attacked to it produced to the court last\nweek was a part of the footwall, the\nsmooth surface showing movement.\nElmendorf wdinlts he made a nil-take\nabout the extension of a fissure to ...e\nsouth. Fowler, fllwr -and Atwater uid\nuot make a mistake. That Is the effect\nif the new work. Mr. Bochmer must be\ntaken to further discredit Elmendorf.\nHis, Bo_-mer's evidence can be read In\nno other w*f.     As to the continuation\n(Continued on Flftn Page.)\nH. C. BLACK\nB. C.

One sei of experts against\nthe other. On an equally important\npoint, the extension or non-extension\nto the south of the black fissure, 'the\nopinion of the first set of experts has\nbeen found correct by the new work,\nand the second set of experts have admittedly been found to have been wrong.\nAs to drag ore then, the plaintiffs\nshould have the benefit of the doubt\nunder these circumstances, remembering that the onuB of satisfying the court\non the points uuder consideration was\nupon the defendants.\nIn -concluding his address Mr. Davis\npressed upon the court the careful consideration of the effect, of 'the new work.\nMr. justice Morrison\u2014\"Of which we\nhave heard so little, now that it has\nbeen done.\"\nMr. Davis continuing, said he based\nmuch of his argument upon what was\nshown -by the new work tracing the effect of It back through the evidence given at Ihe original trial. The new work\nshowed exactly whnt the plaintiffs told\nthe court, would be found if the work\nwere done. Tbe court fully understood\nwhat It was hoped would bc proved or\ndisproved by tbe new work. Now that\nthe work wus done and the plaintiffs'\n(intention fully demonstrated there was\nan end of the defendants' contention, as\nurged along many lines, p08_i-l_ before\nthe new work was done, but now uo\nlonger argueable.\nS. S. Taylor. K.C, followed Mr. Davis\nfor the plaintiffs' going minutely Into\nall the evidence touched generally upon\nby Mr. Davis. He urged that tbe present hearing wus an appeal on the whole\ncase and must be so considered. He\nstated the two contentions, of the\nplaintiffs' on tne one hand and of the\ndefendants on tlio other and then proceeded to take up the sections of the\nevidence supporting tbe plaintiffs' invariable contention from tbe first up to\ntbe present time.\nReferring to one of the drifts,run off\nNo, 6 level just to the north of the flrst\nturn, counsel said that according to expert testimony crosscuts in the work-\n' ings were Invariably interrogation\nmarks, being run out to ascertain the\nmake up of the surrounding country.\nPractical miners, when in doubt as to\nthe course of the vein, run out crosscuts to test whoro they were going.\nWhere they knew well what tbey were\nfollowing they did not run crosscuts. At\nthe point flrst Indicated, lhe crosscut\nshowed that tho miners did not know\nthe courso of tbe vein, although the defendants' now claim the course of tbe\nI vein wjis 'perfectly clear. Turning to\nMr. Slzer's original evidence counsel\nread extracts touching on what wns\nsttown In the workings at tbe alleged\nturn In the Star vein and where the witness declared the vein was ended, terminated, cutoff by the black Assure and\n\u25a0vi.'enc**, t-ihnwlnr the black fissure extending to the south. The -continuation\nto the north, not being the Star veto on\n,-A bi'in -iiitmiul .course, but tho black fis\nsure only. At the flrst bend beforei and\nduring the flrst trial, only a portiotn of\nthe working, could be seen owing to* the\nlagging being in place there. Mr. Slzer\nthen explained what would be found' to\nthe south if further work were done.\nCounsel followed the original evidence\ngiven by the plaintiffs' wltuesses at tbe\nfirst trial showing where the Star vein\nat the different levels came up at right\nangles to the black Assure, was terminated by a fault fissure, that Ib toy the\nblack Assure so designated\u2014and that a\nthrow of several hundred feet to the\nnorth occurred, along the Hue of which\ndrag ore was found ln the vein filling\nof the black fissure.\nMr. justice Morrison objected to counsel deliberately and coolly reading long\nextracts from the evidence. \"We have\nheard it once, will have to read it\nagain. Reading It now was of no' assistance.\"\n\u25a0Mr. Taylor replied that counsel desired to connect up sections of the evidence with the theory supported and\nproceeded with his analysis. Concerning the make up of the vein Ailing in\nthe black fissure what the plaintiffs' always contended for was that the black\nslickenslded material was the dominating material of the black fissure, the\nsmooth sides Indicating motion, but 't\nwas always admitted that at points in\nthe admitted Star vein some black\nsllckensides could be found, but only\noccasionally, as contrasted wltb that\nfound along the whole length of the\nblack flssni _, the change from the vein\nto the fissure In the rock toeing always\nclearly discernible wherever contact was\nhad. The make up of the black fissure\nns described by Sizer was dwolt on, tbe\ndistinguishing points, as contracted\nwith the admitted Star vein, being barren, only ore found \u25a0being clearly drag\nore and not ore in place, the vein filling containing caclte, but not spathic\nIron or anything that, came up from the\ndepths, crushed slates and ten times the\namount of black sllckensides, as is\nfound In the Star vein.\nWhat Slzer told the chief justice wat\"\nvisible to the eye In the workings\nwhen the learned chief justice visited\nthe mine, was dwelt ou In passing, and\nthe evidence of expert Atwater was referred to as fully confirming expert\nSlzer on all points and absolutely without contradiction. The evidence of S,\nS. Fowler, more particularly upon the\ngeological -conditions at the apparent\nflrst turn of the Star vein, was referred\nto at some length as confirming and\nadding to Sizor's story. Fowler said\nthe vein turning was apparent but not\nreal. Fowler was willing to test his\nopinion by the new work then asked fot*\nat the end of the second trial at Nelson.\nThe, work since done had proved that\nMr. .Fowler was wholly right In the first\nInstance.\nThe occurrences of ore In tbe 5th level and In the levels above and below\naround and near tbe alleged turning\npoint as described by the workmen of\nthe defendants' original evidence, was\nreferred to at length, Mr. Taylor claiming that much of this class of evidence\nnow turned out In the plaintiffs' favor.\nThe meaning of the long barren stretch\nalong No. 5 level where the hlnck Assure is encountered and mn along, as\nthe plaintiffs' contend, was gone into\nvery fully, counsel reading voluminous\nextracts from tho evidence and from\naffidavits made by Byron N. White nnd\nOscar White made tn August, 1901.\nwhen this litigation first started, showing little or no ore along this stretch.\nLater, at the trial, the defendants' ex\nperts say the ore is \"practically continuous, the contrast being -harp and not\nexplainable under ordinary circumstances.\nMr. Harris always believed In the existence of the fault Assure, the black\nfissure, but at first -he thought the fault\nwas a small one and that the vein would\nbe found nearby, extending on the west\non the other side of the' fissure. At the\ntrial, however, this last contention was\nnever advanced by thej>laintiffs. For\nmonths tbe plain tiffs ,$rere unable to\noibtaln a view of the mine workings,\nuntil at last the court ordered it. When\na view was obtained the facts as alleged now by tlie plaintiffs were found to\nexist.\nTurning to the meaning of what was\ndiscovered by Fowler recently In the\n\"hidden drift,\" Mr. Taylor said that it\nwas not known that the mass of superincumbent porphyry said by the defendants to overhang the barren stretcn\nand to account for Its non-mineraliza-\ntlon, did not exist in the position maintained for it, and this being so, the defendants' theory on this point was\nswept out of court.\nA dissection of Elmendorf's views ou\ndrag ore, what drag ore really is, and\nthe fact that Elmendorf found no drag\nore in any part of tbe workings occupied about half an hour of the court's\ntime.\nThe plaintiffs' experts during the case\nwere obliged to make out. what would\nbe found to be the case if new work\nwere done, wholly from observed facts.\nThey risked their reputations on what\nwould be found. The new work was\ndone and the plaintiffs' experts have\nbeen justified in every statement they\nmade originally and this must have\ngreat weight with the court in weighing the value of the respective expert\ntestimony, taking Into account the\nBtand taken by the defendants' experts\nwhen leave was asked to do the new\nwork, and their efforts now to \"explain\"\nwhat has been found to exist.\nThe balance of counsel's address was\na masterly analysis of other parts of\nthe evidence than those referred to and\nat 5 o'clock the court adjourned for the\nday.\nThe Bilean Way to\nHealth\nStomach' and liver complaints and their\nsymptoms\u2014headache, Indlgsollon, constipation, piles, blood Impurities, etc.\u2014 cannot tie cured by taking rirugsw blob oyer-\ntjrive these organs, Yet that is what mere\npurgatives do.
