C FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER^ 27, 1907 NO. 136 ARE CHEATED So Allege Deceived British Immigrants PRESIDENT BROOKS AGAIN REVEREND GENTLEMAN APPEARS IN THE SAME ROLE IN MARITIME PROVINCES WHERE A PARTY IS LANDED UNDER FALSE PRETENCES. Of the last batch of Immigrants who arrived ln Nelson under the auspice, of the British Emigration, Tourist and Colonization society of Liverpool, of which Rev. J. L. Brooks Is president, ten In number, all have had work found for them w th the exception of three who will probably fit in somewhere within the next few daya. Not any one of them had made any pur- •chaB- of land, but all had the idea that F. Hammond of this city would find them work Which would enable them to purchase .otne of tlie fruit land wliich he had for sale, Mr. Hnmmond Is Indignant over the matter and does not kno wwhat can be done, _xeept through the publicity of the press. He has cabled to Mr. Brooks and also to the tigont gcnernl ln London Imperatively demanding thnt no more emigrants be sent ■cross. That Rev. J. L. Brooks is conversant with the whole circumstances and li-. no longer acting under any misapprehension Is sufficiently clear through recent correspondence. He writes a letter to one of the emigrants before his departure from England and says be Is "worrying" over their chances of work on their arrival here, as he has sent so many mon over that the company cannot find tbem work in cleuring land on the home ranch but at the same time assures them that he la using every effort to find them employment on their arrival. Mr. Hammond says the only effort Mr. Brooks Is uslngs Is the Ink he Is squandering. Nelson is not the only Bcone of the working of this society wh'ch Is apparently nothing but a booking agenoy collecting their commission from the steamers on which they book passengers to Canada. Now Brunswick is the latest scene of their exploits as will be seen from the following * extract from the St. John Sun of Sept. 19 which sufficiently shows tho bad faith of this long named company on whose directorate appear the names of many Canadian and British clergymen. It was at one time thought that .V. Stark of Winnipeg, who is a Cnnnd'an director, was mainly responsible but this does not seem to be the case according to the New Brunswick paper In which bis name does not appear. There was a party of six Indignant Immigrants," Bays the Sun, "at the depot yesterday—AKred Coates of Yorksh re; H. Taylor, Worcestershire; G. Thomas, Wood- ridge; nnd three Scotsmen, James O. Brown W. Moulds and James Stewart, all of Ayrshire. The party comprised a marine engineer, who Is also an electrician; a locomotive engineer; a blacksmith.nnd three brass finishers. All arc qualified machinists. They were sent out by tlie' British Emigration, Tourist nnd Colonization society of Liverpool, with canls. ■ to 'George McAvity. president of the N.B. Southern fairway,' and say they wore assured by officers of the society that they would have no difficulty tn getting employment here at from 13 to $3.50 a day. They landed at Quebec on Monday and on arriving here found that Mr, McAvity was out of the olty. They saw his superintendent and were told that the highest wage paid was 92, They would not go. to work for that amount as they say it Is only io or 15 cents more than they were earning in the old country, and they found fro menqi_trles that the cost of living here would be about 12 more than In England and the work ng week here is two hours longer than there. They also say that when they landed in Quebec an employment agent met them and offered them $2.75 a dny to go to work In Montreal as steam fitters but they did not accept on account of having engaged to come on here. They were very Indignant because of tho misrepresentations of the society particularly pa the Rev. J. L. Brooks Is president and thero are a number of other clergymen connectnd with it and they intend to write to the English and Scotch papers about the matter. They are staying on until today in tbe hope of seeing Mr. McAvity personally and If they cannot get an offer of better wages some will go to the United States and mme to Montreal, wh'le one of tho Scotchmen, having only $10 left, win probably have to stay here and take whatever work he can get." A very similar story 1. told by tho immigrants to Neleon. The men here say that they were verbally assured by the officers of the society that they could have all tho work tbey liked nt the home ranch, working ns few or ns many days n month as they m'ght choose, while board nnnd lodging would be provided for them on their arrival.

Broughton of United Metals Company Anticipates Early Rise, London, Sept. 26.—The Times publishes the following cabled communication from Mr. Urban H. Broughton, general manager of the United Metals Selling company, on the copper situation, in response to an Inquiry of their American correspondent; "During two months of last year this company sold between 80,000 and 90X00 tons of copper below the price of twenty ceuts per pound in an endeavor to prevent the price exceeding that figure. "The demands of consumers continued to be bo urgent that the price was forced up until It reached 25^4 cents in March of this year. "At the time when the Wall street panic occurred, purchases ceased, consumers having bought all the future product of the mines represented hy this company to the end of June. A nominal price of 26^4 cents was meanwhile maintained to protect consumers who had bought for future delivery. After the end of June the price of the metal was reduced, there being no further obligation to consumers. This company has not been aggressive in either advancing or reducing the price of the metal. At the present moment the question of price is not of so much Importance as the restoration of confidence. ■ •'! 'Uf "The amount of refined copper ln the hands of the producer1; la much eyag- gerated, With the heavy demand n*»w in force the present stocks will soon be exhausted." Crown counsel would not he eager to convict but to bring out the facte. Cases should he fairly dealt with and if lt were necessary to impress on crown counsel these facts, Mr. Foy would have tt done. Crown counsel he said should defend as well as prosecute. DEMAND LARGE INCREASE. Toronto, Sept. 26.—Deputations from various branches of the inland revenue service waited upon the civil service commission to request a general Increase of 33 1-3 per cent in their salaries, also that superannuation he granted. The suggestion was nlso made that while under the present system of political appointments to the service friction might be avoided by consultation between those who have patronage and ttie collector who would have to deal with such officers after the appointments were made. IS COMMITTER FOR TRIAL AGGRAVATED ASSAULT CASE IN THE POLICE COURT AN EXPERIMENTAL FARM. MAN ILL IN BED IS BADLY BEATEN AND KICKED What at present looks like a very serious case of assault was heard yesterday morning at the police court before magistrate Crease. The charge was preferred by W. Wallace ngu.ii-t Fred Bullock of the 'Stiver Kfri'g mine.' Tho'prsoner, who was defendtfl by J. O'Shea, pleaded not guilty and reserved Ills defense. On the evidence given by the comp'alnant and a witness, .V. L. Brldgford, the defendant was committed for trial, electing to be tried under the Speedy Trials act. The story of the complainant, which was corroborated In several particulars by Mr. Brldgford, was that be had been visited just before the opening of tho late fa r by Bullock. Comp.'alnant had o room on Vernon street. Bullock could not get a room and In consequence complainant had shared his room and his bed with accused, giving him food which he couid cook. In fact thc two men were batching together hut there wns no charge being made by thc complainant. Shortly after the defendant's arrival in town he had loaned the complainant some money. This W-kj unsolicited. There had been no time mentioned as to the return of the money. Complainant was apparently to return It at his own convenience. Then, Bullock had proA'cded to have a good time. He came to complainant's room at all hours of the morning riotously drunk. This got so bad on one occasion that the intervention of tbe police had to be called upon. Still complainant hnd not tur.ied Bullock out. Bu.'- lock prestytly spent al. his money and demanded the return of his cash loaned complainant, but Wallace said he was not In a position to return it immediately but was expecting money and as soon as that arrived he would repay the loan. Defendant grumbled. In the meantime complain- nnt had fallen sick und Bullock then slept on tbe floor. Complalnnnt wa. confined to his bed for several duyB. Finally on Sept. 22 Bullock came In, mod drunk, and Insisted on his money at once. Complainant was in bed but promised to return It If possible in the morning. BnJ'nck held him down with one hand nnd struck him with the other and presently dragged him out of bed and wanted to fight. He then picked up a chunk of ore nnd struck the complainant wltb that, felling him, While upon the floor he kicked him sevprnl t'mes nnd threatened to kill bim If he called out for help. Final Ty be threw complainant back on the bed and covered h'm un and left the mom. the door of w'hlfh Wallace promptly spiked to prevent the return of lilt assailant. Wallace hnd n bad looking pur of eye. j»sterday and his face allowed evldenc. of hard usage. The cn-e w'll prniio he- fore Judge Forln, prnluiMy n.Jtt week. C. P. R.

If there are remaining any persons within the city ot Nelson who are still doubtful of the possibilities of this country In the growing of fruit they should take the first opportunity presenting itself of visiting the ranch of James Johnstone facing this city. September ts no month to visit a ranch In this district, since the length of the Indian summer and its consequent tendency to promote a late growth only to he winter killed, prevents the experienced rancher from cultivating the ground between his fruit trees. Indeed Mr. Johnstone haa gone so far in this direction as to sow wheat for his chickens between his rows. The general effect, is therefore somewhat unkempt. But a glance along the lanes of Mr. Johnstone's apples almost takes away lhe breath of the spectator. It is not ton much to say that pcrlnps nowhere else in Canada can be seen trees so .ad.ii wilh richly colored fiu't. D:spi*e pruning, the (rees are bent to the ground with boughs heavy with npples. There is not a tree in the whole place which Is more than a dozen years old but the yield is something that hns to be seen before It can he believed. Mr. Johnstone has now perhaps ten or mor_ acres under cultivation but of the older portion of his orchard there are not more than a couple to three acres. There the harvest is almost unbelievably rich. The trees have had to be bolted -O prevent splitting and there is not one of the many bearing but which is supported by props to keep up the burden of apples. The noteworthy feature of the or- ! chard ls the number of different va- ! rieties which are present.- Indeed, in , this regard the orchard Is really an experimental farm. The highest priced ; apple on the market is the Cox's Orange Pippin. This is growing luxuriantly and although Mr. Johnstone has as yet no trees in bearing, yet the possibility of the growing of this high priced apple, better colored and as delicately flavored as in the old country, has been demonstrated elsewhere on this lake. The orchard shows Spltzennergs as good as can be produced anywhere and Yellow Newton pippins as good as the best, showing ihat the three best npples of all can he grown right In the heart of the Nelson district, Even the Snow, tliat. apple, which thc easterner fondly thinks cannot be grown anywhere except In the fruit b°lt of Ontario, Is to be found in perfection on this ranch. What has heen done across the lake can be done elsewhere In the district. Mr. Johnstone has the advantage Just now. hecnuse. seeing earlier than did other people, the possibilities of apples in this country he has planted trees which are now coming to their full bearing whereas others have s'Ul to wait before they can show to visitors trees which have grown fruit heating the fruit of _h_»empire in open competition In the metropolis of the old country.

AMERICA CUP Stringent Conditions Imposed by Holders STAND ON DEED OE GIET SIR THOMAS LIPTON HAS SUBMITTED ANOTHER CHALLENGE WHICH MAY RESULT IN A FURTHER ATTEMPT TO CAPTURE THE TROPHY, New York, Sept. 26.—Prospects for a race for the American cup next year were greatly Improved today by the announcement ot Sir Thomas Upton that he will submit another challenge specifying a 90-foot boat as the representative of the Royai Irish yacht club. Members of the New York yacht club were reticent as to the action that would be taken by that organization in response to an amended challenge but it was pointed out that the deed of gift, by which the American cup was placed in the custody of the New Yoik yacht club in 1887 apparently makes it obligatory upon the New York yacht club to accept the challenge, provided the conditions are complied wtth. The deed of gift specifies that any foreign yacht club "shall always be entitled to the right of sailing a match for this (America's cup). It Is also set forth that tii. competing yachts, if one mast "shall not be less than (In fe;-t nor more than 90 feet on the load wa'.er line." Then It is further set forth that Hie challenge club shall 'give ten months' notice, that this notice must be accompanied hy a certificate of the name nml rig of the challenging vessel and the vessels length on load water line, beam at loadwater line, extreme beam and drnught of water. A further clause provides that the course for the rates shall be selected by the club holding the cup, "and these race3 shall be sailed subject to its rules anil sailing regulations so far as the same do not conflict with the provisions of the deed, but without any time allowance whatever." 0*44*0 4 f 4 ALL RED LINE ASSURED. ♦ 4 a 4 Ottawa, Sept. 20.—The dominion ♦ ♦ government is now certain of the 4 4 acceptance hy the British author!- ♦ ♦ ties of an All Red Line scheme, es ♦ ♦ outlined by sir Wilfrid I/aurler nt ♦ ♦ the recent Imperial conference.

MONGOLIAN-HURONA COLLISION. Mongo'ian's Bow Split to Water's Edge —Passengers Rescued In Safety. Quebec. Sept. 26.—The steamer Hurona arrived here at 4 o'clock this morning and is anchored In stream. The extent of her damage is not yet known. She had not a full cargo and it consists principally or iron, she had on obard all the passengers of the Mongolian who disembarked. The Mongolian arrived in port at 9:30. The collision occurred on Sunday night in the vllcnity of Point Amour, just at the entrance to the straits of Belle Isle. The Mongolian was struck on the port side forward. She Is leaking forward only and her pumps are able to keep It down. As a precautionary measure her passengers, thirty-eight in number, were transferred to the Hurona. As the water is only in the forepeak ihe cargo is not expected to have suffered any damage and if experts decide t'iflt she Is not. drawing too much water she wil! go to Montreal to be unloaded. From the appearance of the bow of tho Mongolian .the vessels collided at right angles. The Mongolian's how is split to the water's edge. How the accident occurred remains a mystery, but it is generally thought to have been due to the dense fog prevailing at the time. None of the officers of the Mongolian wlil speak of the oceurrance. Rev. C. R. Brulllette, n French Canadian Presbyterian clergyman, who is now a resident of Long Bench, California, was a passenger. He snys the collision occurred about seven o'clock Sunday night. He was informed by the officers of the ship that there was no immediate danger lo the passengers, but almost immediately afterwards orders were given to lower the bo^ts and passengers were transferred .o the Hurona. Great heroism was displayed by Mrs. Dohson stewardnss of the Mongolian, who refused to leave the ship until the third boat put out. In this, a man who was rowing, suddenly became 111 and Mrs. Dob-on look the oars herself a*u1 pulled the party to the Hurona. The Hurona left for Montreal at 7:30 a.m. of the telescoping yesterday at the mouth of the Breval tunnel near Mantes, of the rear coach of the special train from Paris for Cherbourg. Miss Haskell, who suffered greatly from the shock was taken on board the Ardi- atic on a stretcher and was placed in the care of the ship's surgeon. The extent of her injuries had' not been determined when the steamer sailed. G. N. R. MICHEL-FEBNIE BRANCH CANADA'S RAPID GROWTH. W.

[culture, In a paper at the meeting of ihe Canadian manufacturers a_-.jciuii-ti 11 Toronto, gave iliusiratiuus of the growth of Canada in thc twentieth c.n- uiry, Canada's foreign trade In the last year of the nineteenth century was $3-0,008,000, while in the sixth year of the twentieth century It had reached J-l-,300,000. The assets of chartered banks in the six years have nearly (.011- bled. The amount at the credit of depositors in the chartered savings banks was $.-7,8.0,000, or $309,590000 more than In .1900. The same expansion Is seen bolh in steam and electric railways. Dealing with the census of manufacturers of the dominion Mr. Blue stated that in fourteen cities and towns of the dominion there was an Increase of 58 per cent for the five years ending 1905. In conclusion Mr. Blue says while lt will not be claimed that the older provinces are growing at the same rate as the west, there Is no doubt that all parts of the country have prospered In their varied industries, and there Is no limit within sight to the greatness to which Canada may attain before the century ends. Demand for Houses In Michel—Much Bulling Under way (Special to Thc Dally News) Michel, Sept. 26—Rapid progress is being made on the grading of the Great Northern track between here and Fernle.

Vnncouver, Sept. 20.—It Is very Improbable that the Chinese government wlH make any claim for indemnity to thc British authorities as a result oC the recent anti-Oriental riots here, and the losses sustained by Chinese citizens. However, Great Britain, Canada, or the city ot Vancouver will be asked to pay a good round sum In settlement of the damage claims of individual Chinese sufferers, as well as for conseciuential dumai.es. A big item, $4,500, will be for. broken window panes. This was the substance of a statement made by Mr. liuyang King, tha Chinese vice-eounsul at San Francisco,, who has been here for a week on an official mission. Mr. King has also found time to study labor conditions. He is elate:!, he says, over the assur- anies made lo 1.1... by employe.-, of labor thai there is no general antipathy to the Chinese; that the anti-Oriental agitation will soon run Us course, and- that hi. people employed in tlio sawmills do not work at starvation wages, but on the contrary, he declares, havo superseded the whites owing tu their sobriety and efficiency. "I came to Vancouver upon Instructions from the Chinese legation at Washington, as our country hirs no of- llelal representative In Canada," said Mr. King, this morning. "My time since my arrival has been fully occupied In studying labor conditions, local sentiment, and in g-ttlng an estimate of the losses sustained by Chinese citizens during the recent riots. A white glazier engaged for the purpose haw been busy for a week figuring out th© bill for broken window glass. Thus far it amounts to $4,500.

Most of the sen.atloiml features nf the fi-st trial will be eliminated by Littleton.

It has not yet been prepared. The bill will em- brare Ihe losses sustained by Clilne.e as a result of the interruption to their business. "As soon as the items nro figured, out I shall s"tul the account and my report to the legation at Washington. What action my government will tako I am unable to state. I presume payment of the bill will be pressed through the ordinary diploma !:■ channels, China, certainly expects that full repiratloi- will bo made. I do not even know whether the account will bo settkd by the city, the dominion or tiie imperial authorities—time alone will tell," naively added Mr. King with just tho faint.st trace of a smile. "My investigation here respecting the labor question has proved a perfect revelation, a series of surprises. I came here expecting to fltirt tbe entire population aiTiigner. against my countrymen. On the contrary I was agreeably surprised to find that they are highly- regarded by the majority of your people, and that the recent riots, far from being a symptom of lll-feellng, were irresponsible hoodlums. The ordinary white laborer had no hand in the window smashing. "It has be.n Inueed highly gratifying to me to receive the assurances of scores of white men—large employers of labor that the Chinese are a sober, frugal and industrious race, and give perfect satisfaction. I have been disillusioned about the talk with tho Chinese work for lower wages than the whites, at least so far as various Industries are concerned. For instance » prominent sawmill owner told me that many of his Chinese cutters earn from $4 to $4.50 per dny, and that the lowest wages paid Chinese laborers was $1.50 a day. The majority of them earn $-.50 a day. "Hut most important of all wis the assurance that Chinese labor In the s .wmills had tlie preference because they could always be depended upon and 'turned tip for work every Monday morning,' as a large employer e- pressed it. If tho white man Ins been sup- fM'.oded. It is palpably owlnaj In '-Is inefficiency or luck of stability.

The second annual fruit fair held at Kaslo on Tuesday and Wednesday c. this week, was a marked- success -moan educational point of view, wha the result may have been financially. Kaslo ls handicapped In tlie ma' .. of exhibitions by lack of adequate accommodation, hut taking into consideration the enterprise of her people, if lt be decided to continue to hold annual fruit fairs, we may he sure that the difficulty of accommodation will be overcome. The question as to whether or not Kaslo should' continue these annual fruit fairs Is ono of more than local concern and if we undertake to express an opinion on the subject we trust our Kaslo friends will understand that what we have to say Is not prompted by any sectional feeling or any desire to unduly accentuate the claims of this good city of Nelson, The main objects of these fruit fairs may be said to be to educate those already engaged In the fruit growing industry and to encourage others to engage In this pursuit. Considering the limited acreage available for fruit growing in southern British Columbia and Its scattered nature, we are of the opinion that the above objects can best be obtained by one aftnual fruit fair held at the most convenient point, having regard to accommodation, both for exhibits and visitors.

The most enthusiastic workers for the Kaslo fruit fair acknowledge the advantage that would accrue from a union of forces. It is the same with representative fruit growers from other districts. All agree that the real interests of the fruit growing industry suffer from existing divisions. It will he useless for the directors of the Nelson Agricultural and Industrial association to attempt to bring about the suggested union of forces unless they be prepared to make generous concessions to the outlaying districts. There exists, unquestionably, a feeling in several localities that Nelson has not displayed a sufficiently generous spirit in the past. There may or may not be justification for the existence of this sentiment. The fact is that it does exist and has to be overcome. We should greatly like to see the Nelson directors take up this matter with a determination to win out. From all we have heard, we firmly believe that the object can be obtained and In the Interests of the fruit growers of southern British Columbia, we should like to see an earnest effort put forward to accomplish it. EDITORIAL NOTE. The new International stamp agreed upon at the Rome Postal Congress of 190.6 on the motion of Mr. Hennlker Hoaton. has now been prepared, and will he issued for use next month, says the London Daily Chronicle. Thcstamp Is really a coupon measuring approximately four inches by three. It has been designed by M. Eugene Grasset, and engraved by M. E. Florlan, both of Paris. The coupon Is really a kind of little postal order to breaer, to be exchanged for stamps so that anyone writing, say fro mEurope to America, and wishing to send a stamp for reply, can take advantage of It, Five million stamps have been printed, and each oountry will order several hundred thousands. The vignette on tho stamp represents the figure of a goddess as a messenger of peace from one hemisphere to the other. In the background are olive branches. The robw of the goddess are a bluish-grey fading In the background Into a yellowish-green. The olive branches are also of that color, making a soft, harmonious blend.

American club's action. In an Interview today sir Thomas said that he did not understand why h's challenge had not been accepted as ho had been led to believe that if he challenged under the universal rule, which prevails for races In the United States, there was every probability of his challenge being favorably received. He added, however, that he had not given up the hope of sending a yacht to Bandy Hook In 1908, and already had telegraphed to Wm. Fife, the designer, to come to London for a consultation. There waa but one thing that Bir Thomas waa emphatic about, and that was that ho would not challenge under the old rule. One reason for this is that there la no designer of note In Great Britain, and this Includes both Fife and Milne, who win design a boat similar to the previous Shamrocks. They say to do so would necessitate the production of even a greater frenk than those which have already gone to defeat. Besides the danger of sailing suoh a boat across tho Atlantic must be taken Into account and sir Thomas Is not prepared to ugnln risk the lives of men In suh a venture. Sir Thomas, stated today: "I was prepared to challenge with a, 90 foot boat under the New York yacht club rules In sending the chft._-.iBe. I conformed with the deed of gift of the America cup. which saya that sloops must be over 63 feet on the wntcr line and under 9T feet. I adhered In this respect to size, Inasmuch as the boat I challenged with would have been about 7*1 feet on the water line. This also conforms with tlie New York yacht club rules for the cln^s "J" boats. I am pre- pared now that they have declined to ac- GOOD PRINTING is essential to the success of very business house and if you would be supplied with a striking and effective line of Letter Heads Business Cards Envelopes Receipt Books Circulars Dodgers BOUND BOOKS OF ALL DESCRIP1 Account Forms Price Lists Catalogues IS, Etc, Etc., Etc. ~_0 Have them prin' by Tlr\e Daily {lews cept my challenge for this class oS boat to enter a 90 foot boat under their tyacht club rules. There is a "J" class expressly defining such a boat but tl-fc next class, "P,1 providing for boats of Si feet rating ls capable of producng a boat with about M feet on the water line.' In explanation of his action In challenging under the Now York yacht club's new •rxilea, sir 1-iomas sad: "The.international rule whicli applies to Great Britain, Spain, France nnd Portugal, is different from the rules existing in the United States, which is known ns the universal rule, and which lias been in use In America for three or four yenrs, and under whloh dozens of boats have been built. On the other hand a bont hns never been built In Great Britain under the uri'versftl rule, so that In my challenge I hnd no pu;l or was not asking nny advantage. It was quite the *#ther way. The American designers and builders with their exper'ence in buTdlng boats ■nder the universal rule, have a'.l the best of it. "Freaks, such ns the three Shnmrock- whlch we have been racing with for eight or nine years, were built under a measurement rule which now does not exist ln any part of the world, and to*prevent such freaks being raced In America, the universal rule was adopted. So, naturally, I concluded that by challenging under the universal rule, I was meeting a 1 the wishes of those Interested In sport. After the race win or low, a boat built .inder such a rule. Is of some use, the winning boat being an example to naval and marine arch'tects, whereas In the other case the boat was only built for the rubbish heap and the education of designers. "I was prepared to bul .1 two boats and take the faster of the two to the starting line, had thc New York yacht club accepted my challenge. I hnve always found thc members of the New York yacht club to he ready to meet my every request, and of oourae I am most sorry that they d'd not accept mjf challenge, the ri ason for ■which I am most nnxiousiy waling to know. "I certainly would not have sent a challenge had l thought for a moment that it would not have been accepted and I hope that any difficulty In the way of a race for 1908 will be overcome, as I wouid love once more to find myself off Sandy Hook righting over again the old battles for the yachting, supremacy."

It ia perhaps possible to over-estimate the significance of the return of two ministers by acclamation. It would not be wise to argue from the circuim- stance that there ls no conservative spirit left In St. John or in Brockville, for that would be obviously a mistake. "St. John already returns a conservative member to parliament, and tor the constituency ln which Mr. Pugsley has encountered no opposition the late Dr. Stockton has a majority of eleven hundred. The presumption ls, therefore, that a good conservative nominee could have rendered Mr. Pugsley's election very difficult, and he might have been beaten. And it will be remembered that it was at Brockville, only a few days ago, sir Charles Tupper ant^ the elite of the conservative party of that day decided to begin the onslaught upon the government by means ot which they were to come back to power. It will probably be not tar wide of the mark to assume that the conservatives quit in St. John and Brockville because they felt indisposed to enter upon contests in which the chances of success were, on the whole, against them, and still more because a general election Is believed to be less than a year away. No doubt, on the other hand, they will find themselves obliged to put candidates in the field in London, Northumberland, and perhaps Wellington. If they fail to follow up the advantage they gained by their attack upon Mr. Hyman they will stand convicted of something very like cowardice., and, whatever may be said of the conservatives of St. John, that charge has never properly lain against the conservatives of London. Wellington the liberals ought to hold, whatever the opposition, which ts, apparently, one strong argument with the present day directors of the conservative party why no opposition should be mad'?. Northumberland was held for the party for many years by the efforts of the late member, Mr. Cochrane, and there anything is possible, even a conservative surrender. What really Is significant about the two bye-electtons, however, Is the proof they give that the opposition have no real interest In any question but that of a possible success at the polls. Take the St. John case; Mr .Borden, Mr. Foster, and Mr. Fowler, with the local leaders, addressed the electors there only a few days ago, and while all of them spoke of the approaching trlump of the party, Mr. Borden made some show of propounding a policy for which he asked the support of the people, In St. John Mr. Borden had the right to count upon a majority of at least a thousand at any bye-election, if a candidate came forward in support of his programme, and if that programme was really accepted by the party he assumes to lead. And yet, in less than a month, the party lays down its arms, surrenders its majority, and tacitly declares that the programme enunciated by Its leader Is not worlli fighting for. The programme is nothing; the desire to ameliorate conditions in the country Is all buncombe; tlie change of success is everything; and as there is no chance now to get power, which alone counts for anything, they will not stir until the general election, when the chances are better, In all candor It must be said that the attitude adopted by the leader toward the electorate is infinitely more praiseworthy than the attitude adop'ed by his followers toward him. For by their action they put him clear out of court when he claims that he rests upon an approving public opinion. If his programme were in Issue, If an election could be taken as a test of adhesion to that programme, his friends in St. John ought-to he willing to go to the polls not once or twice fn a year, but a dozen times If need be. Every time they went they would do something to spread the gospel. But no. they will not budge. The programme is nothing to them. Power Is all they care for. And they prove themselves unfit for that, too, for no man is fit for power who will not fight for it. A capital chance at the ihotel business.

Tho same transportation rates were announced ln the official program nf the fair. The purser on the Kokanee collected the full return fare, $2.40 and gave a receipt therefor. When passengers (presented this receipt and asked for the return of itO cents at the C.P.R. ticket off ce here yesterday, they were Informed that no off'cinl advice bad yet been received from Winnipeg or Vnncouver confirming the one fare rate.

There are four prizes given, varying from $500 to $29) and In any case $300 ts allowed for expenses in getting up the exhibit. I#st yeiw the Nelson exhibit scored the .highest in point of fruit of any exhibit that was made, but Nelson fell down In the aggregate because ot its deficiency In vegetables and farm produce. Now, Kootenay has no fear as to its vegetables but the distance la great for the transportation of ouch things and Nelson ls thoreby handicapped. However, this year there Is being mado an attempt to take vegetables and other displays outside of fruit, to New Westminster. How difficult is the problem which Is presented for solution may be gathered from the following list of markings for the price winners in the district exhibit for which Nelson Is now entered: Fmilt, 3» points; preserves, 260; grains, 2G0; table vegetables, Wi; forage, 250; dairy produce, 250; stock vegetables, 200; arrangement, 200; total, 2000 po'nt-. It will be seen that whatever may prove to be the superiority of this district In fruit, a superiority which was amply demonstrated last year, yet the marks for fruit are not moro than 15 per cent of the whole. Therefore, under the circumstance.., although it Is impossible to hope to win the premier prize, yet stilt tho exhibitors have hopes of capturing one of the next following.

Plnkham's Vegetable Compound In tlie Case of Mrs. Fannie D. Fox. London, Sept. 26.—Further details have been obtained of the secret marriage of the divorced wife of the king of Saxony and a music master, which took plaee here yesterday at a registry office: "LouiBe An.onUt:.6 Marl?, c-iintess Montlgnoso, formerly Louise Antoniette Marie, arch duchess of Austria, spinster," was the name the counte.s entered on the register, while her hu.bind subscribed himself merely as "Enrico Toselli." The latter gave his age at 24 and the countess said she was 37 and described herself as "the divorced wife of Frederick Augustus, crown prince of Saxony, now king of Saxony and daughter of tbe arch duke of Austria and grand duke of Tuscany." Toselli gave his occupation as a professor of music and said he was the son of Alberto Toselli, ti professor of languages. The participants in the ceremony drove to the registry office In cabs. None of the reporters who for days had been trying to discover the whereabouts of the countess and Toselli were on the scene. The marriage ceremony was performed by the superintendent of the registry office and tbe witnesses who signed the marriage certificate were William Le Queux, the novelist, R. C. Witt and Mrs. Mary H. Witt. The countess who wore a plain cloth travelling dress laughed arid chat- led constantly. Toselli on the other hand seemed to be rather overcome with the importance of the occasion and was decidedly uneasy. He is short, wears a short black monstacne, has bushy black hair and dark eyes. Immediately after the marriage the party left the registry office, Toselli remarking "We Intend to leave England is quickly as possible." The' hotel where the countess stopped is the Norfolk, a small houee near the Thames, frequented mostly by provln- cftl merfhints and commer lal travellers and th? last phce which might have been expected to slte'ter a member of a royal family. The countess and Toselli gave their hostelry as their residence to the registry. The landlord who did not suspect the Identity of his guests until a crowd of reporters descended ttnon him. It is reoorted thM the couple first went to the hotel Ceril hut hastily shifted their quarters when the countess saw In th* dining room a waiter she had known it Italy. Mr. Le Quex has a residence in Italy and knew the countess and Toselli, When the countess left her villa at Florence some time ago she sent her faithful companion, the countess Fngger to Munich for a holiday and brought her ll'tle daughter, princess Anna Monica, the cutody of whom the royal family of Saxony is anxious to Becure, with her to England.

Word reached the city last night that Reginald Webb, some time proprietor of tlie Strathcona hotel, is very seriously 111 at the Hotel Vancouver. Mr. Webb went to the coast to consult a specialist and the first news sent here was of a very hopeful nature bupt a turn for the worse seems to have come about. There having grown up recently a practice on the lake of hiring launches, a protest has heen lodged. Tho-e who have launches for hire or lease must comply with the act requiring all such vessels to have certificates issued by the provlnc at bovemment by thc machinery Inspectors before taking any p'*_enijers. There waa a great deal of Interest taken In the open events of tlie doub.'e and single handed drilling con-test at the Spokane fair. Owing to bad management tho iblock of atone used for drilling was soft in spots and the first team drilled right through It, and struck the supporting timbers before the 15 minutes exp'red. The socond team did the same and then the contest was temporarily stopped. Both teams started drilling a second hole and the score stood: H. Haff and C. M. Peterson, chamlons of the Coeur d'Alenes, 60 B-8 inches; Fred Yockey and H. Johnson, from Goldfleld, 61 3-8 Inche*. The softness of the rock and the fact that the last few Inches drilled through was knocked out in solid chunks prevents any compnr'son with Kootenay records. A-Wfiw MoQUHvray and A.
