The shock from the wounds inflicted upon him bj Leon F. Czol- gos seem to have been less than was anticipated and that is regarded as highly favorable of him. It is admitted that the crisis in his condition has not yet come and that there is the gravest danger until it has been safely passed. Several bulletins came from 'lie chambers of the wounded president during the night and early hours of the morning, and they all indicated a spirit of hopefulness. The president rested well during the night. There were no alarming conditions of temperature or pulse and the,spirits of the sufferer were strong and cheery.

WRIGHT'S LEROI CIRCULAR Some Extracts of Great Interest in Rossland. THE MANAGER AND THE UNIONS 'This Is the Time to Settle the Labor Agitation"-- "Please Have Patience; Strike Will Not Last Long"-What Macdonald Said Before.' The circular issued by Whitaker I land Great Western mines, Mr. Wright in defence of Bernard Mae- Macdonald, manager, Stated, June donald, with a few enconiums upon I 30th, 1900: Kiiouliing tlie I.arileau. That sad story, published in yesterday's Miner about a man, wdio lefl Rossland when the strike was declared With .81.00 and returned yesterday with typhoid fever and $11.00 should be a warning to other capitalists with $81.00 to avoid the Lardeau as a health resort or place for investments. Whitaker Wright and many stabs at those who asked him to resign, is referred to elsewhere. Portions interesting to the people of this community are Mr. Bernard Macdonald's letters and cables, reproduced in Mr. Wright's circular, with Mr. Wright's references: Mr. Macdonald's letter to Whitaker Wright, August 1st. "An important thing at this time is to settle this labor agitation once for all, and united action between our companies and the War Eagle and Centre Star at Rossland will have this effect. On the contrary, if the companies yield to the demands of the strikers, the outlook for future profits from mining operations will be gloomy indeed." A Calais to Whitaker Wright. "These deep workings will he completed about the time the Le Roi smelter, now being increased to 1250 tons daily capacity, is ready to smelt the ore. The entire present capacity of tho smelter is (150 tons daily, heing only sufficient to handle present output of Le Roi. The additional smeller machinery and furnaces will be ready about tbe middle of September, when mine will be prepared to begin shipments named." Mark well! At that time the eight-hour law was in full effect, yet he said: "The cost per ton for mining, development, smelting, refining, and realization expenses at the Le Roi mine, added together, does not exceed IfS per ton, and that the mine The following is an extract from !is earning more than sufficient to a cable received from Mr. Macdonald, dated August 12th: "Strike leaders announce change to take place in Le Roi board, and union demands will be granted. To recognize the union means that every employer of labor will be iniited and under the supervision and absolute control of union dele gates. Advanced wages and shorter hours, small matter compared to this. Public Bympathy now with companies. Please have patience, strike will not last long, the anticipated result will be quite satisfactory to the company. Mine promises exceedingly well for future; is well equipped with machinery, and can be operated with splendid profits if not hampered by means of union control." And Still Another. Mr. Wright adds: "It is well known that by imprudent legislation and the dictation ol labor, capital has been practically driven from British Columbia." In a recent letter Mr. Macdonald wrote: I "We are first handicapped by an eight-hour law, which increases mining costs about 19 per cent., then one per cent, tax on the gross output at the mine; then that tax is made two per cent. Then the contract existing between thc smelter in the State of Washington and the mine here is annulled by the judge, so that the provincial government can have greater returns to tax. Under these laws mining investments in British Columbia have ceased. Hence the absolute importance of fighting the the present light against the labor unions to a finish." Macdoiialri'M -Jvldenee Agatlifat Wright. Mr. Bernard Macdonald knew the eight-hour law waB in force in 1900; he knew that in a general circular he and other mine managers had admitted the contract system saved 30 per cent. He knew that taxes were levied on ore —but what did he^say when endeavoring lo enlighten the British investors? Let us see: Uciuaril vh. llernarcl. In the prospectus of the Ross- pay 25 per cent, on the capital of the company." Again on June 15th, 1900, the provincial statute being still in full force and effect, reporting upon the Le Roi No. 2, Mr. Macdonald said: "Upon the basis of tlie cost of mining and treating the Le Roi .ires should yield profits sufficient to return 25 per cent, per annum upon the capital of the company. At the same time there is no reason to doubt that the output maybe materially increased in the near future, and the profits correspondingly enhanced." Does Mr. Bernard Macdonald wish to proclaim himself a mere tool used for the purpose of booming prospectuses, or does he assume his present position merely for the purpose of promoting his intrigues against miner's unions?

In the second case against Al Geiser for violating the laws of the alien labor act commenced yester- noon, and concluded this morning. James II. Andrew said he was a citizen of the United States and was hired by Cliff Bowen in Baker City to work for Geiser as carman in the Rossland mines. Witness described his trip to Northport in the special car along with Treat, Stevenson and the other men and his arrival in Rossland later- . Blucher Weatherbee testified to being engaged in Baker City to work in the mines Lo Roi mines at Rossland as an engineer. "At Northport I asked Bowen," said the witness, "how he was going to get us into Canada, as I understood there was an act prohibiting it, and he replied: 'Wo ship you to Northport and if any of the fellows ask you, tell them you aro shipped to Northport; that's all you are supposed to know.'" For the defence Bowen was recalled, and swore he only hired the two previous witnesses to work at Northport. The witness admitted that he showed the Rossland scale to the men at Baker City who he employed for Northport, and that the Rossland scale called for eight and the Northport for ten hours' work. John A. Kellogg again testified as to the American law, and the Andrew case closed shortly before noon.

In Rossland, as throughout the British Empire, all good citizens will nnite today with the Great American Republic in fervently hoping that the useful life of President McKinley may yet bespared. It seems a pitiable thing that the only means available to punish Buch a wretch as Neiman is to hang him. If any means can be devised to prevent the re-occurrence of such a dastardly outrage as was attempted yesterday the law Bhould be amended and promptly put in force. Throughout the United States the practice of carrying firearms is far too general, and the enforcement of the law against the practice a farce. Here at least a needed change might be insisted on with good effect. Canadians sympathize deeply with their cousins over the border today, and will join with them in all sincerity in hoping for the complete recovery of the president. THE TRUTH OF IT. In a recent issue of the Miner Mr. Bernard Macdonald published a circular which he sent to those employed at the Le Roi and other properties. What was the date of it? July 10th. What was the purport of the document? An intimation that he was quite prepared to drop any misunderstandings with the men, hut that if they wished to avoid the consequences of a strike they must bow to him, his decision and his policy—or want of it. There is a further significance. The 10th of July was nearly two months after the lockout at the Northport smelter. For weeks preceding this, affidavits made by the score established the one potent fact, that a determined effort had been made by Mr.Kadish, his agents or parties representing him, to induce union men to forswear themselves, or at least violate their sacred obligations. Failing in this, Mr. Macdonald no doubt considered discretion the better part of valor, and put on record a bulging mouthful of conciliatory expressions, without any intention whatever of carrying them out, and yet he now calls it virulent abuse, when the flimsy character of this intrigue is exposed. jobber is his final circular to the fiO Roi shareholders. Manager Macdonald wired Whitaker Wright "An important thing at this time is to settle this labor agitation once for all," and again later, "Strike leaders announce change to take place in the Le Roi board and union demand s will be granted. To recognize the union means that every employer of labor will be limited and under the supervision and absolute control of the union delegates. Advanced wages and shorter hours small matter compared to this. Public sympathy now with company. Please have patience, strike will not last long." The real truth then, is not that Mr. Macdonald waB carrying out his instructions at all, but that he had adopted a policy and begged the London directors not to interfere with him and at the same time cabled them such a string of false statements that comment thereon is quite superfluous. Having originated the real troubles here and in Northport, as the public must now be thoroughly aware he did, Mr. Macdonald should at least be willing to bear in Bilence any blame that is forthcoming for his policy. He has denied every charge made against him since May last. He has charged the union men with every crime and mean motive imaginable, yet he has not proved a single allegation made in the columns of his paper, the Rossland Miner, or disproved one of the charges brought against him and his management. The newB from London proves beyond all question that the views contended for by the World in the pending struggle have been correct. Under all the cirenmstances as we now understand them, Mr. Macdonald's early retirement will surprise no one. COLONIAL HOUSE, MONTREAL. NEW CATALOGUED: 330 pages oi Illustrations and Prices.

The same paper also states that Mr. Macdonald has merely done what he has been obliged to do by his superiors in office—this is Most untrue.

"If you want to work for ub you must abandon your union." He did so, strictly under instructions from the general manager?

C, Sept. 5th, 1901. To the Citizens and Business Men of Rossland and Vicinity and to thc General Public 1 The Le Roi mine manager has been circulating ii report that the strike here is practically at an end and the mines are about to resume. This report has been taken up by their organ, the Morning Miner, and sent out over the country as a true report of the situation in Rossland. We have made a careful analysis of the situation here anil believe that no impartial reader can see much reason for the joyful enthusiasm which Mr. Bernard Macdonald and his paper profess to feel. For three and one-hall months the strike has been in force at Northport. The greatest claim Macdonald or Kadish have ever made during that time is that they have been able to operate twe of the five furnaces at the smelter. It is only a question of simple arithmetic to see that it it takes three and one-half months to start two furnaces, it will take eight and three-fourths months before they can have the smelter in operation. Now, if it takes eight and three fourths months to secure the 500 men necessary to start the smelter, it will take twice that many, or seventeen and one-half month-, to secure 1000 men. for'the mines in Rossland. Or, at the end of twenty-six and one-half months, if Macdonald has the same success he claims to have had'thus far at the smelter, he will be in a position to work the mines. No one can deny or dispute that Bernard Macdonald has left no stone unturned to secure men for the smelter at Northport. He has cast his drag net over the states of Minnesota, Colorado, California, Oregon, Missouri, Montana, or, practically, over the entire country west of the Mississippi river, and has been able to start but two of the live furnaces at the Northport smelter. This is the success he boasts. He claims the strike is at an end. It has only begun. So far we have taken as true his statements that he has two furnaces in operation at Northport. We wished to prove how futile are his statements by his own evidence. The real truth is he has never had two furnaces in successful operation at one time for 24 hours. They have produced no matte for shipment up till August 25. lie claims to have shipped one carload on August 21. That it was the highest in value of any shipment made. The records of the railroad at Northport fail to show any trace of matte shipments on or about August 21, If any shipment was made it was via the Columbia river route and rests at the bottom ot the river. , He also claims to be able to start the mines in Rossland. Apparently he does not realize there is an alien act in Canada, for of the 30 employes now at the mines all but two have been brought here in direct violation of this law and will be deported inside of two weeks. He has in eight weeks been able to secure but two scabs in Canada. Now, if the Canadian people should, to his surprise, enforce their laws, even if it does hurt the feelings of Bernard Macdonald, how long will it take to start the mines at the ratio of two everyi, eight weeks? And as yet there is not a miner in the lot. We are not deceiving the miners of Rossland by false promises. We have every reason to hope that by October 1, iqoi, Bernard Macdonald's name will only remain in Rossland as an unpleasant memory. We hope for an honorable settlement of the difficulties here. The sooner the better it will suit the union miners of Rossland. But if it is necessary to continue this fight to its final end the union miners and smeltermen will stand shoulder to shoulder for carrying on the fight. This war was forced on these unions. We entered the struggle full of a belief in the justice of our cause and confident of our ability to carry it successfully to an end. This belief has never been shaken for an instant, and certainly is not when we consider the almost unbroken line of successes which have thus far attended our efforts.

A Plain Dun lal. Leon Madore, of Spokane street and Fourth avenue, wishes to state that he is the person referred to in the Miner of yesterday, under the heading of "For Others Sake," and that the article is true in respect to his trip to the Lardeau with $11, and that the young man, who was his nephew, not his son, contracted typhoid fever and they were compelled to return to Rossland, as the Miner states, $3 poorer than when they left Rossland. He states that this was caused by his nephew's illness, and the Miner's statement that he is dissatisfied with the strike policy of the union is false in every particular. He was in favor of the strike and has been so from the beginning, and he and his family are perfectly able and willing to stay by the union until the strike comes to a successful conclusion. Mr. Madore is very indignant that any one should attribvte the sentiments in the article to him, and this denial is published at his personal r.ijuest.

Genuine Witch Hazel, Toilet Waters and Shaving Creams. The gross misrepresentations made by Mr. Bernard Macdonald to the board ol directors at London, with regard to the situation Rossland, are simply disgraceful, to use mildest possible term. 1—Mr. Macdonald imformed the board of directors in London that members of the union insisted on tho "supervision of the mines." We challenge Mr. Macdonald to prove t__fe; and we challenge Mr. Macdonald to disprove that ho signed a solemn agreement last year "not to place any obstacle in the way of the men becoming members of the miners union." Did he keep his word? 2.—Mr. Bernard Macdonald has allowed the directors to believe that the contract system was inimical to mine owners. We challenge him to prove the this. He and his own officials have admitted a saving of 30 per cent under the contract system! 3.—Mr. Macdonald caused the board of directors in London to believe that the Provincial tax has crushed the life out of profits, so far as the LeRoi mine is ..concerned. We challenge Mr. Macdonald to produce figures showing the amount of money paid by the Le Roi company to the provincia government. 4.—Mr. Macdonald represented to the board of directors in London, that the strike was brought about by tlie unions. We stale and slate emphatically, that tho! lockout at Norlh port was ordered by Bela Kadish, with the connivance and consent of Bernard Macdonald. The strike at Rossland naturally followed. More than this: Mr. Bernard Macdonald positively refused to meet the unions in a conciliatory spirit. We challenge him to disprove this. In conclusion, we assert that common British fair play lias been denied the miners of Rossland. We ask the public to remember this fact, that Bernard Macdonald was privately cabling to the London directors, without offering the unionsoiany member of theoflicials thereof any opportunity of saying any thing in their defence. They are prepared to meet hiin without in the least fearing the result.
