Mr. Frecheville has been at Northport all yesterday and today making a oomplete inquiry into the working of the plant with nonunion labor. With the knowledge of Mr. Frecheville's presence at the smelter the World's correspondent sends the following statement this afternoon: "Number five furnace—the old reliable—froze up at midnight and was out of use until 5:30 this morning, when the men managed to get it started again. Yesterday ten of the new men at work on the high line went out on strike and quit their jobs. They were bothered by the smoke from the newly fired roast heaps and demanded $3 for a ten-hour day. They _were working twelve hours and were offered $2.70 for ten hours, but refused and walked out. "Six men working on the roast heaps for $2.70 per twelve hours demanded $3 and, on being refused, they quit work and are out today. "In the feed room yesterday eight men went out on strike, making in all twenty-four men who have quit the smelter plant within the last twenty-four hours. "The smoke from the newly lighted roast heaps bothers the green hands greatly and there is a lot of grumbling and dissatisfaction among the whole of them. When pay day comes (Oct. 10) a lot more of the men brought up here will go south. They say they have had enough of the "easy job." OREGON LIBELLED Passengers Ask for $215,- 500 Damages-Bad Food and Overcrowding. Seattle. Oct. 4.—The passengers of the steamship Oregon on her last trip from Nome instituted a libel suit against the vessel yesterday in the federal court. The aggregate of the damages demanded iB $215,500, the first class passengers each asking $800 and the second class $500. There are 305 libelants and their petition 'covers 725 pages. It is said to be one of the most voluminous papers of the kind ever filled in the court. The chief causes alleged for the suit are: That the rudder of the vessel was in a defective condition when she sailed; that the supply of provisions was unsuflicient and that she carried more passengers than the number allowed by her license. BEAMISH TO GO Handcuffed and Led Along the Streets. AN ONNECESSARY HUMILIATION Judge Leamy* Upholds the Police Magistrate's Finding—A Petition Is Started. The Beamish appeal case from the findings of the police magistral. Boultbee in which Beamish was sentenced to two months imprisonment, in connection with Horn incident in August last, came up before county court Judge Leamy without a jury at 10o'clock this morning in the court house. The seatB reserved for the public on the floor of the corrt room and in the gallery were all occupied by an interested audience throughout the trial. Beamish retained the services of C. E. Gillan aB counsel and the prosecution was conducted by Hon. T. Mayne Daly as at the first trial. Horn went into the box as the first witness for the crown and retold his story, being subjected to a sharp cross examination by Mr. Gillan without eliciting anything particularly new. The other witness who had previously testified in the police court followed in due course, and the court adjourned at 12:30 for lunch, resuming at 2 u'clock. No evidence waB called for the defence but Mr. Gillan made a lengthy address to the court lasting over an hour. Judge Leamy said in delivering his judgment that he would not disturb the finding of the magistrate and he lectured Police Officer McDonald for his action in connection with the matter and also found fault with all the men who had been concerned in the affair. Beamish attempted to speak but the court refused to hear him and he was taken in charge by Chief ef Police Vaughn, hand-cuffed and led through the streets to the city jail. This last act has called out a number of remonstrances from those who witnessen it. The desire to humiliate Beamish seems to have been so strong that the step alluded to was taken. Horn swore in his evidence that Police Magistrate Boultbee pointed out Beamish to him in the crowd, and named him, otherwise he woulk not have known who Beamish was. Both Beamish and Colistro will be taken over to Nelson tomorrow. A petition to the minister of justice setting out the facts of both cases is being prepared this afternoon, and will be circulated for signature and sent on to Ottawa at once, asking for executive clemency.

Columbia won the yacht raoe today by a very narrow margin on time allowance, Shamrock II having crossed the winning line first. The wind was fresh at the start, but gradually failed, there being only sufficient breeze to allow the boats to cover the course within the time limit. The course was a fifteen mile beat to windward and return, and although the cup defender started first the Shamrock went around the turning buoy ahead of her rival, the time at the turn being Shamrock, 12.48.48; Columbia, 12.49.35. The British boat was never headed on the home run, and pass* ed over the winning line ahead of the Columbia, but the latter followed sufficiently close to win on time allowance. , This ends the series, Columbia winning the cup in three straight races.

Referring to the Colistro case the Nelson Trihune says editorially this morning: "The extreme penalty of the law has been meted out to a man name- oil Colistro for violating one of the sections of a law passed by the parliament of Canada. Another law passed by the same parliament lias been trampled underfoot repeatedly, yet, as far as heard from, noonehoe been punished for violating it. Is there one interpretation of the law for poor and uneducated men, like Colistro of Rossland, and another interpretation for the representatives of the rich and powerful, like Bernard Macdonald? If there is, it is time to make sweeping changes in the officials who are paid to enforce the laws without fear or without favor. Price Five Cents. Fatal Railway Collison.

SAN FRANCISCO Battle to Down the|Unlons Is Over. MEN HAVE WON THEIR FIGHT The Right to Organize Admitted— What the Unions Contended for —Message From Rossland. A mighty struggle in San Fran- cisco has been going on since May last between organized labor and organized capital. The fight is over and after many weary dayi, . labor has won and reluctantly wrung an admission of its rights from its opponents. Early in August the labor council of San Francisco issued a state ment selling out plainly what was contended for by the workmen. The statement stated among other facts the following: "A mighty struggle is going on in San Francisco and vicinity between organized labor and organized capital. The latter, organized in the Employers' association, haa through its spokesman, an attorney, announced that the trades unions must be disrupted. It has followed up that dictum by acts. It is a secret organization. Ita main weapon ia the refusal of aup- plies to union houses. Again ahd again employers desiring toemploy union men have been forced to discharge them or close their business. ... - Organized labor has declared that it will never surrender the right to organize. We could not do otherwise. Without our unions we would be an easy prey to the greed of our employers. Our trade union is our bulwark against greed, injustice and tyranny." From the outset it will be seen that a bold attempt was made to break up the unions and not only to prevent the employment of union men but to coerce all branches of business, which in any way gave employment to members of any union. In the settlement which has now been arrived at,this insane scheme has been dropped out of sight and the union has won a substantial victojy after a hard fight. The Hossland Trades and Labor council last night wired the following congratulatory message to their San Francisco brethern. RoBsland, B. C.Oot. 3rd, 1901. Ed. Rosenbery, Sec.

Thomas Lipton will not lift the coveted America'* cup this season, but he succeeded in making the holders of the trophy exceedingly uncomfortable for a while. In the race yesterday the Shamrock sailed under the conditions which her owner declared she required to really test her racing qualities and with these conditions in a perfectly fair race she was squarely beaten by the Colunv bia. The .Shamrock started first but her rival was over the line before the two minutes had elapsed and on the run home from the second turning buoy on the last leg of the triangular course she passed the British boat and crossed the line an easy winner. The only explanation possible is that the Columbia is the better and the faster boat of the two, and Sir Thomas, while pluckily standing by, and praising his captain and his splendid crew, sorrowfully admits the defeat. Of all the contests for the cup, the present one has been clearly the best. The best of good feeling has prevailed, the course haB been kept clear, and the best boat has won, but there has been no recurrence of some of the unpleasant features of former races and one result is certain, a prompt challenge for next year. Canada holds the championship yachting cup for the great lakes , and for the half raters, both fairly wrested from the big republic and ■ince the old country has failed to win back the blue ribbon of the seas we should have a try for the trophy. THE LAW. Judge Leamy has decided that he cannot interfere with the police magistrate's decision in the Colistro case, and the convicted man must serve out his sentence of two months in the Nelson jail. The law has been dealt out harshly in Colistro's case, and very naturally former cases here have been referred to, and the sentences given, compared. The most signal instance occurred about two years ago. An accident happened on Washington street, a laborer being killed by the cave-in of the sewer then in the course of construction on that thoroughfare, i Pending the inquest following the accident a well-known lawyer here who had been retained by the relatives of the deceased visited the scene of the killing, and while he was in the excavation with his head just on the level, the contractor who was constructing the sewer rushed at the lawyer and most brutally kicked him about the head until he dropped insensible and nearly killed. The assault, was a most brutal one, without the slightest provocation or imaginable excuse. At the trial which followed a judge of the supreme court of British Columbia first sentenced the contractor who had been found guilty of assault, with attempt to kill, to two years imprisonment, but owing to "representations" the learned judge reconsidered his judgment, and the contractor was allowed to go free on payment of $100 fine, or practically unpunished. All the facts in connection with the case in question are undisputed and are well remembered in Rossland. Is it to be wondered that people today are apt to reeall the circumstances in connection with the case ended yesterday? There are still some other aspects of the administration of the law here which calls for sharp comment. The prosecution of the Colistro case was carried on for the crown by the standing solicitor for the Le Roi Mining company. From the evidence already given in the Geiser case, and from men who have been recently employed by the Le Roi companies outside of Rossland, it is clear that the most gross" misrepresentations have all along been made of the real situation here in order to induce workingmen to come to the camp, and in addition ths plain terms of the Alien Labor Act have been openly and defiantly broken, and for the past two months workers have been run into Rossland against the law and without any concealment of the fact, the Geiser scheme being practically abandoned as useless for the purpose for which it was tried. If Colistro must serve his term out, shall the greater law breaker go free and unpunished, with liberty to continue to violate the Alien Labor,Act, or will the Dominion government fairly enforce one of its own enactments? NOTES AND COMMENTS. Sir Thomas Shaughnessy has now bo many letters to his name that he will soon talk of the Imperial favor as a subsidy of so many alphabetical characters to the mile. The- London B. C. Mining Review says: "We understand that Mr. Blackstock will probably remain in London until Mr. Mackintosh arrives from British Columbia." One the phenomena of the nineteenth century was the enormous increase in the European stock. When the century opened the population of European countries and people of European origin was 170,000,000. At the opening of the twentieth century it is 510,- 000,000. The danger of a yel low or black domination has thus passed. This city never before has seen so many feminine unionists in a parade. In some respects thiB was the most significant feature of the day. The increaS' ing tendency of women to organize may indicate increased efficiency on their part and a better opportunity to command as good pay as men for an equal amount of work. It is to be hoped ite promise in both respects will be fulfilled.—Chicago Tribune. Latterly corporations have been allowed to break the laws of the country with impunity when strikes have been in progress while the utmost severity has been practiced against those workmen, who, maddened by some sense of injustice and wrong, have stepped across the line that divides the law-abiding citizen from the criminal. If the Labor party had only this one object, of securing equal justice for all citizens alike, its existence would be amply justified.—Nanaimo Herald. Don't forget the prunes.

To the Citizens and Business Mm of Rossland and Vicinity and to the General Public: The Le Roi mine manager has been circulating a 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 and 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-half 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 two of the five furnaces at the smelter. It is only a question of simple arithmetic to see that if 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 the 500 men necessary to start the smelter it will take twice that many, or seventeen and one-half months* 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 five 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. He claims to have shipped one carload on August it. 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 every 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 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. EXECUTIVE BOARD ROSSLAND MINERS' UNION No. 38, W. F. M 1 HE EVENING WORLD, ROSSLAND, B. C, OCTOBER 4, 1901 PATHETIC INCIDENT Three Inseparable Dublin Lads Who Were Killed in the Boer War. London, Oct. 4,—A pathetic; incident of the Boer war iB narrated by tho parents of Trooper 01 iffe, of the 74th (Dublin) Company of Imperial Yeomanry. In childhood Oliffe and two comrades, Bonynge and McLean, attended the same Sunday school, and for twelve years the trio belonged to the Boys' Brigade attached to Trinity church, Dublin. So greatly were the three attached to each other that they vowed never to be separated in spite of all obstacles. Time only cemented their friendship, and when manhood was reached they were still inseparable. So, when the Imperial Yeomanry-were being recruited in Dublin the gallant trio determined to enlist and fight for their country in South Africa. Together they embarked, together they took part in the Bame engagements, and when the attack on the convoy was made at Roci- kooppies on August 24th together the three young Irishmen defended the convoy, fighting shoulder to shoulder, till at length they fell mortally wounded, and now all three share the same resting place under the same veldt.
