SLOCUM COMPANY TO BE WOUND UP TORONTO,_Juno 13.—An order winding WILL NOT DISCLOSE COST OF PRODUCTION' Will Only Give Figures When Favorable to Their Cause- Mine Workers Retaliate "' (Special to The Dally News.) FRANK, Alta., June. 13—After the matter of publicity of certain .statements filed before the conciliation board had been settled this morning by the ruling of the board through the chairman, that any statement of fact bearing upon tbe matters in dispute between the operators and mine workers, was the property of the board and that such statements should be accessible to both parties, nothing contained in them being allowed to go to tbe public if either Bide objected, the board went into secret session and has been sitting behind closed doors ever since. The ruling of the chairman regarding secrecy Is in accordance with the provisions of the Conciliation act under which tbe board Is acting. A provision of the act states that if either party to a dispute objects to the publicity of any statement it shall be kept from publication. Miners Retaliate The refusal of the operators to allow the production of statements showing the cost of production when not" desired by them to be made public, caused the mine workers to refuse to grant Buch privilege where the contents might be considered detrimental to their contentions for an advance in wages. President Powell and other mine workers severely condemned the course taken saying that they were in favor of the utmost publicity,, ■but owing to the onesided manner in which publicity matter had been dealt with they were compelled to resort to the present course in self defence. The statement filed this morning by tbe management of the Frank Mines, which Manager Mueller said would show that these mines could not continue to operate under present conditions, and which he stated the company had no objection to being published, brought the publicity program to an end. The mine workers objected to having the statements like that of the Fernie management and tbat at Coleman going before the public unless all statements whether they favored one side or the other were treated in the same manner. The net results of this kind of tactics Is that the companies so far have succeeded in getting before the public two statements, which uncontro- verted, tend to prejudice the position of the miners before the public and the operators having by the course they have pursued shown that they will not allow any adverse statements to go beyond the precincts of the board, have at last driven the miners Into their present position, and not much evidence of any great value to the public Is likely to get into tbe press in tbe regular way. Behind Closed Doors During the remainder of the enquiry Superintendent Shone and Secretary Thompson of the Frank Mines were examined behind closed doors this afternoon regarding the facts contained in the suppressed statement, and Mr. Cnr- ruthers nnd a miner named Steen were on tho stand giving testimony regarding the wages earded in this camp. Mr. Carruthers explained how a few miners others could not do so. A night session is In progress and the board will visit, the Lille Mines tomorrow. up the Dr. T. A.

WELL8, Dlst, Psgr, Agent Value of Underhand Pitching Has Yet To Be Definitely Proved—Boston Is Experimenting. BROOKLYN, N." Y„ June 13.—The fact that Brooklyn in Schardt has a pitcher who uses a sort of underhand delivery has started the local fans discussing the merits of the overhand and underhand fling. Schardt has tried his delivery with varying success in his two games in the big league, and its value has yet to be proved. Only two pitchers in the American league, Willett of Detroit and Warhop of the New York- club, use. an underhand delivery to any extent. Batters will tell you that there is something about the underhand ball, with its gradual rise, that makes it hard td hit. Even at that, Willett and War- hop do not use the motion as much as one would think, and few other pitchers have tried to perfect it, Willett and -Warhop are regarded as successful twirlers," yet both have a reputation for being more or less erratic. The fact that Willett has always been more or less prone to have a bad Inning was the cause of Hughey Jennings not using blm in any of tbe world's series, ih which the Tigers took part. Warhop, despite his effectiveness, ls usually wild, and often gets himself in bad holes through hitting the batsman or Inability to get the ball over. In all probability, difficulty in acquiring control is the very beBt reason tbat can be advanced for the failure of more twirlers to use a delivery that is admitted, by the. best batsmen to be hard of solution. President Armour of the Toledo club la of the opinion that some of the best batters are weak on balls that split the plate waist high. A ball, over the fiddle of the plate would naturally seem easy to hit, but Armour says most batters hit better when the ball comes over the inside or outside corner. Says Armour: Long Swing Effective. Batters who take a Jong swing, like Lajoie and Stovall, are more likely to hit wide balls than balls that cut the plate. Larry isn't weak on balls over the middle of the plate, like hitters of his type. He can hit anything. Batters that step away from the plate are test on ballB over the inside corner. The hatters who hit the balls o//et the middle are the fellows who chop instead of swing. Willie Keeler -was the greatest chop hitter. He used a short bat, gripped it far up from the handle, and poked the ball. Chop hitters seldom make long drives. Fred Snod- grasB, tbe Giant outfielder, wbo led the National league batters for a long time last season, is weak on 'balls that split the plate. He bits beBt when the ball over tbe outside corner. Pitchers shoot for the middle with Snodgrass up. George Stovall has a style of his own. He is a stiff-arm hitter. AH his long hits are made on balls over the middle and close balls on the handle of his bat for Infield grounders. Players say over-confidence is responsible for weakness on halls over the middle of the plate. They look so easy the batter pays too much attention to getting strength into the swing, and not enough to meet the ball squarely. .A Blow ball over the middle of the plate, waist high, Is tbe hardest to hit of all foolers. Batters often fail to judge the speed of a slow ball."

The new ruling of the United States customs department, enforcing a collection of $30 or ad valorem tax of 20 <per cent on all horses brought Into the United States from (Canada, regardless of nativity, does not effect racehorses, either trotters or runners. A special act still enables racehorses to be bounded Into the) Dominion for a certain length of time, returning duty free. When the original announcement was'made to the effect that duty would be enforced on all American born horses returning from Canada, race promoters threw up both hands In dispair. The eastern lacrosse situation is evidently going to be controlled by one Jimmy Murphy, now of Toronto, but formerly of Cornwall. The same Jimmy is seemingly going to be a second President Diaz, as far as lacrosse ethics go. While a mere spectator at the game between the Nationals and Tecumseh, he bas since fined Fred Graydon, of the Tecumsehs ¥15 for his share in the mixup in the game just mentioned, while Petre and Lamoureux of the Nationals have been levied $10 each. These men had to pay the fine before they could participate In another game.

FOSTER Manager WEDNESDAY. JUNE 14 TEN YEARS AGO Dally Extracts From The Nelson Tribune of June 13, 1901 BRITISH COLUMBIA'S ATTITUDE. The Ottawa Journal, one of the most reliable papers ln Canada, recently sent out queries to correspondents In all the provinces of Canada on both Bides of -politics asking for a statement as to what would be the result in their respective parts of the Dominion were a Dominion general election brought on at once. Here are the answers received from British Columbia : (By a Liberal Correspondent.) Victoria, B. C, June 3.—It is a difficult matter to estimate the chances of the Liberal party In British Columbia at the next general election. As a matter of fact there is very little of a Liberal party here today, and In response to the request of The Journal would suggest that "Dick" McBrlde could give as much Information as fs required. (By a Conservative Corespondent.) Victoria, B. C„ June 3.—The Conservative party holds the bey of the situation in British Columbia. Premier McBrlde has seen to that. Since he became leader of the Conservatives in tbe province, the opposition to him has gradually been wiped out until there is no such thing as an organized Liberal party. It is true that the government has two supporters in the Federal house but since 1908 this Influence has declined and today reciprocity has put -them in such a position that they bave absolutely no hope of being re-elected. It is believed that with redistribution British Columbia will be given 15 seats. If that is so the Liberals have only the slightest-chance of gaining one of these seats. But there ia little hope tbat they will do even that. In the Yukon, Congdon will be defeated. He was elected last time, as the result of a four-cornered contest, but he cannot win In a straight election. k These two replies, it Is quite safe to A. M.

Once more I found myself afloat upon the sinuous Columbia river, but under very different condition to those of my previous trip made in 1909, and already recorded in Rod and Gun for June 1910. On this occasion I left Golden on the 21 of July at 7:00 o'clock in the morning after a practically sleepless night, for just as I had peacefully closed my eyes I was aroused by the prolonged whistle of the Columbia River Lumber company's mill. I knew that whlBtle should not' "be blowing at midnight unless there was trouble in Gulden's chief industry, so 1 jumped up to find tbe whole vicinity ablaze with reflected light to realize that either mill or yard a mile south of our cottage was on fire. Fortunately it was an absolutely still night and any wind there might he blew from the mill across the river, away from the town, so the fire was confined entirely to the mill Itself, and through the strenuous! exertions of the townspeople and fire brigade, did not spread to the various wooden buildings or to the piles of lumber tn the yard, though alas! $100,000 worth went up in smoke, not even a scrap of the fine and costly machinery being saved, so fierce and furious was the conflagration. The lumber company's new steamboat, on which I was to make my trip up the Columbia to its source in the lakes of the same name, was lying at Its wharf nearby, but her chief officer happened to be on board and quickly moved her out of danger down the river; I. waB, however, assured by some—who should have known—that she could not possibly start at her usual early hour, so I need not arise at 5:30 as prearranged. I accordingly re-sought repose, but no one reckoned with our energetic, enterprising navigator and fellow townsman, Captain Armstrong, who was always equal to every occasion, and was not to be moved from the even tenor of his way by a simple little hundred thousand dollar fire. The large double wagon run In connection with the boat from the town drove up to the cottage just as I was about to partake of a tempting breakfast, and the captain was duly installed beside the driver to stimulate lagging passengers. No breakfast for me that morning, and much Indignation on Armstrong's part at the Idea of his boat being delayed, bo I humbly drew a veil over my missing meal. I found daw-how-yah—Indian for "How are you?"—an Improvement upon the Isabel, her cabin accommodation being particularly artistic and charming. She is of higher draught and can make the trip from Golden to Windermere on the lower Columbia lake quicker than the former boat, doing It In a little over 12 hours at high water, thus obviating the night on hoard as well as the Iobs of time involved by tying up to the hank after dark while the river was unnavlgable. There had been no rain in the Columbia valley for three weeks, so the conditions were dry, smoky and dusty from the terrible forest fires that devastated the states bordering on British Columbia last summer. The smoke from the mill burnt the preceding night hung like a pall to the south and the valley of the Silver Blue was a valley of silver grey with mountains and forests blocked out In huge indistinct blurs of indigo without form, giving weird mysterious effects that were most Impressive. Immediate objects along the river hank were clearly defined through the grey gauze, but beyond was the Infinite. A Self-Willed Cow. I All passengers should have had breakfast before they started, for the boat did not supply that meal, so I bravely; concealed my aching void until Capt. j Armstrong asked me a! couple of hours later if I would like some .strawberries, and deposited a box on my knee. I understood afterwards thnt he was disappointed when he returned later to share them with me and found only the box left as his portion. I fear tbe odium of greediness bangs around me still. We Bteamed on up the river with the usual variations of pulling Into the bank to deposit freight and take on supplies of wood. At one stopping place we found a well-known rancher awaiting us with a very fine large black and white cow; he had his arm affectionately around the animals neck and had provided her wltb a large heap of clover which she was contentedly munching. Bossy was destined for another rancher on the boat who had purchased her at a tidy figure and was prepared rn receive the pet with open arms. The steamer swung alongside, the gang plank was put but for her ladyship to step upon, and she was induced to place her forefeet on it when the boat slewed with the force of the current lust enough to drop the end of the plank resting on Its lower deck, gently Into the water, producing ah Incline plfjne that ended in the river. Bossy shook her head as if to say: "Not for me today" and backed firmly away from the plank. Her master patted her sleek neck and adjusted the rope with a little pressure which did not please the lady. She looked at him reproachfuly, more in sorrow than in anger, and turned slowly but decidedly in the direction of home, proceeding at a rapid walk away from the Columbia. Her master had to follow her whether he would or not, and feeling the tug of the rope she became alarmed and started a trot, which made the gentleman trot, too, and suggested pursuit to her bovine mind. She gave a snort, twisted her tail, kicked up her heels, and was off like a shot, pulling the rope out of the rancher's hands, amid the shouts of the passengers and crew. He started after his pet, who had disappeared round, the corner of wood. Captain Armstrong, however, had no time to waste upon erring cattle, so ordered the .boat to push off from the bank, and then exchanged some forcible remarks with boBsy's new owner, who, being an old man on his homeward way, was nearly in tears over the incident, this being the second attempt he had made to capture his cow. After this excitement we proceeded on up the Columbia, the smoke lifting more and more as we approached the Lower lake. The houseboat Isabel, our destination for the night, was moored to the bank at Atbalmar juat at the junction of lake and river. She looked like an Importation from the Thames, with her gay flower boxes and creepers, hammocks, easy chairs and awnings. It was difficult to realize such pleasant facts In the heart of the mountains, 100 miles from the Canadian Pacific railway. They were nevertheless, fully appreciated by one wayfarer, who waB truly grateful for such pleasant accommodations. Early next morning, mine host of the Mountain Valley ranch arrived before I was up, with his horses and democrat to convey me over the 13 miles intervening between Athalmar and his borne. duly reached at the end of two hour? after a most interesting drive through benchlands and open park country over excellent roads. Up from tbe Columbia river we rose to the town of Wilmer. a mile back stopping there for mall and various commissions, then on by the house and extensive nurseries of the Calgary Irrigation company which is putting ln a ditch from HorBe Thief creek, for the benefit of adjacent land past a pretty little lake, through more park country and timber limits, away up Horse Thief valley till the Selkirk mountains closed in about us and the creek thundered below, and we were at Mountain Valley ranch. It Is beautifully situated on a terrace above the river, which is In no sense of the word a creek, though It winds and curves through the meadows below the house, dividing them Into irregular fields of oats and hay, broken by belts of trees and glowing lines of magenta fire weed, which makes brilliant ribbons of color amid the greens and browns of the various grasses. Straight up from the meadowB rpse the Selklrks. in [ rocky firclad, cliffs; and slopes' of bunch grass and woods away to the sky line, tbe range Increasing in height as lt extended westward from tbe ranch to the recesses of the valley that held lofty pinnacles, glaciers and snow capped peaks. An Ideal spot in which to" pass dayB or weeks, in the midst of a magnificent mountain region, with good roads made to lumber camps and mines and abundance of good horses to ride or drive over them. My only regret was the limitations of my visit—three clear days. One of these was devoted to climbing the range opposite the house to enjoy the panoramic vlvew. One could ride to the very top of the first ridge and command from there the Columbia river valley with the possibility of meeting both deer and bear on one's way. An American visitor at the ranch saw, and if 1 remember aright, subsequently shot a huge black bear In this locality after I left. On the second day I rode to the canyon of Horse Thief creek where our house party lunched amidst an environment of rock, mountain and water on a broad grassy ledge that overhung the creek, sheltered from the sun and cooled by the damp air from the cascade below. Imagine our suprise and-'delight when five mountain goat, their curiosity aroused presumably by the sound of our voices, came and gazed' upon us from the rocks above on the opposite side; they seemed only a few feet— not more than 30 or 40 at any rate- away, so wo suspended our proceedings and remained like wooden images. There was,an old Billy goat who stationed himself above the rest with a kid beside him, and three females'. They looked like ordinary white goats of the heavy Angora type with shorter heads and horns than the domestic animals. After satisfying themselves there was .nothing abnormal going on they quietly withdrew at the end of five minutes, leaving ua quite speechless and temporarily paralysed. My third and last day, I devoted to an expedition to Mount Farnham, 12 miles from the ranch lying back in the depths of McDonell creek. To reach it we left home on horseback at in o'clock ln the morning and rode out past the canyon of tbe Goat along the road to the Columbia Lumber company's summer camp, which runs for miles and miles np various valleys ln a way that made us long for time and leisure to explore them. When we reached a high point on thf road a mile or more from our picnic ground we turned off at right angle? and took the trail to Ptarmigan mine. This we followed- for several miles, ■rising by^ easy grades higher and higher, farther and farther Into the heart of the Selklrks, til at last we four' ourselves beneath a mighty mass of grey rock, that terminated in a curlou? tower on the right and on the left fell away from a rampart of cliff, glacier ana snowfleld, on to a perpendicular wall from ,whose base ar big area snow and ice extended away back on to another magnificent mountain of infinite possibilities.

We lunched and lingered as long as we could by McDonell creek with its Impressive background, and at last when time pressed, reluctantly mounted our horses and rode homewards, down the winding trail that revealed new •beauties and fresh points of view at every turn. On the morning of the fourth day I was obliged to bid a Bad farewell to Mountain Valley ranch and drive away down the valley to Athalmar, with its tempting boathouse, whence homeward to my summer cottage at Golden. I heard, with much interest before 1 left fo> Toronto In October, that the Grand Duke of Hesse, who visited the ranch In September for big game got a fine bag of deer, bear and goat during the week he spent at Mountain Valley.

FASHIONS AND FADS. Swagger and jaunty enough to please any taste are long satin and silk coats that slope sharply back from the bust, closing to a width at the hem at the back, not exceeding a foot. Adjustable collars, woven of colored beads In the form of a round yoke, with hanging, bead pendants in front, are a new form of rage for this .primitive adornment. Many hand embroidered French linen dresses have bhe body part of the waist and sleeves of eyelet embroidered cotton, while the yoke, front panel and sleeve band are of the embroidered linen. Color is the prevailing note of the latest gowns and hats. With the advent ot hot weather, it is likely that white will again assume prominence, but at present it is quite in the background.

A floor covering of good linoleum should hold its own for at least five" years. It needs no soap, ammonia or any strong cleansing agent. A simple wiping with a cloth, just moist with warm water Is all that Is needed. A box of skinned sardines, broken and mixed with a can of shrimps and and served on a bed of shredded leaves of lettuce with French dressing, to which has been added a tablespoonful of onion juice makes a delicious salad. To eradicate red ants from the kitchen cabinet scald it thoroughly, move the cabinet an Inch from the wall,,and wrap the legs with yarn saturated ifrlth turpentine. Fresh turpentine should be poured on the yarn two or three times a week. Skin Sufferer Tried Everything -Then O.D.D Cured This was the experience of Mrs. Geo. Newman, of Orangevlllo, Ont.

Tbe gun it-elf consists ot a long tube of great strength. Into this are admitted compressed air through a valVe near'the breech, and water, through another valve near the muzzle.' ' At about the point ot the vent in the ordinary breechload- ing cannon a' tube-like connection ts established with a hopper .. Dry cement and sand are thrown into this hopper by two men, and here, aside .from valve manipulation and directing tbe cement stream, the human element ends. Tbe hopper vibrates, mixing its contents he- fore It drops dowtt through the tube connection. Once in tbe gun barrel tbe mixture is shot forward by. the, compressed air fed through the valve. At the muzzle a stream, of water is encountered itbat mixes wltb the sand and cement, the whole driving out of the gun with sufficient force to carry it to the desired point. As a result of this rapid fire method or construction, building re- never before dreamed of may soon be established here. High Birth Rates. An analysis made by the civic health department shows that Infantile mortality In the city stands at about the same rate, as last year,- while the birth rate is on the Increase. It is In July -and August that the slaughter of the innocents takes place, and It Is in order to prepare a campoigm of salvation for that time tbat the board ot controll has ordered the medical health officer to devise some means which will, result in keeping down tbe death rate among children., "The best recommendation that I can give to mothers," said Dr. Laherge, "Is to nurse their babies. That is the: biggest and best assurance against heavy infantile morality*, and towards this end I would like to see a board of qualified nurses organized wbo would go into the homes and give instructions to poor mothers as to the'care they should take ot themselves and their newly born children.

PAGE SEVEN MARKETS SPECULATIVE ISSUES SUBJECT TO HEAVY PRESSURE NEW YORK, June 18.—A determined ef- iort was made today to demonstrate the strength of the bear portion In the stock market, and the speculative Issues, especially United States Steel, were subjected to heavy pressure. Prices declined rapidly ■during the early part of .the day and the, movement was accelerated by the clrcula- lattng of various disquieting reports, some of which were believed to have their only foundation In a desire to Influence the market. A number of leading Issues lost a point of more but the downward movement was checked almost before the day s trading was fairly under way, and a recovery set ln. Stocks showed the same reluctance to move that they have exhibited constantly of late, each movement whether toward higher or lower pries* belng followed quickly <by a ohange III the opposite direction. The tone became firmer and stocks gradually made up the losses. The speculative leaders over-topped yesterday's closing prices on the ■bound, finishing today with good fractional gains. .Reports of damage to the growing crops were used as bear arguments and found aome -bails In the government's weekly weather report whkih stated Intense heat, much sunshine and lack of rain had been the prevaHIilg conditions .over large sections; The report of agricultural exports for May showed a substantial Increase over April. The statement showed, as a- whole, still further growth ln the country's foreign trade.

There had been some showers, It Is said, but they were merely local. Another Influence was the fact that Chicago millers bought more cash wheat than for some time. In addition, crop advices from Europe were less reassuring and a substantial increase showed In the worlds available supply.

Quite a marked difference, isn't it ? No. 1 is from SEAL OF ALBERTA the Faultless Flour; No. 2 is from so-called high grade flour; No. 3 is from a second grade flour. The same weight of flour was used for each. SEAL OF ALBERTA flour makes a larger loaf bjecause the gluten in this flour is of better quality, and you know that determines the quality of the bread. Then it will absorb more water—there will be a greater expansion of the dough, hence a larger, lighter, richer, finer- flavored loaf—qualities you always seek, but sometimes miss in other brands. It's all in the flour. USE SEAL OF ALBERTA. Speak to your grocer about it. ' Read the next announcement—it will have something of interest. Trinity efiurch, Port Arthur.

AT THE THEATRES. •The Nelson opera house was -crowrfeirto the 'doors last evening to witness a :*teal musical comedy, "A winning Miss," with Max Bioom leading the fun, assisted foy a large and well balanced company. Mr. Bloom was cleverly funny all the. way through the two acts, and he -waB'-ably assisted by Hattie DeNon, who was a genuine sensation in the role of "Anas- tatla May," and J, E. Coglan as an old sen captain. The leading characters were well supported and the piece ran smoothly and satisfactorily from start to -finish. There were plenty of catchy songs and choruses and tlie'dancing was particularly good. Of the many musical numbers, "Different Ways of .Making Love," by Mr. Bloom and Miss Devon, and the love serenade were the best and elicited the most applause. The play was well put on, the scenery, costumes and electrical effects being original and artistic. Generally, tlio whole performance was a distinct advance along comic opera lines of anything hitherto produced here and fully justified the liberal patronage bestowed upon the performance. "The Cat and the Fiddle," as played at the opera house'last evening-was a series of delightful surprises, says the Vancouver News-Advertiser. The staging waa beauti- ful ln many.parts, the singing carried with It fine swing and spirit, and the humor and laughter was continuous. It is a musical extrtvvnganza ot the best kind. In many respects the piece is a grotesque mixture of the mortal and immortal, of the Fairy Queen and Dan Leno. Starting with a simple -farm scene in the Catskill mountains, It switches away rapidly to a magic cave, and then to a shipwreck which is a remarkable evidence nf stage skill. In the second -net there Is an enchanted castle. where handkerchiefs fly through the air, magic hands appear, and the drink flies away in a streak through the air from .the wrong end of the bottle. There are demons nnd Imps that gambol around, and there are three mortals whose antics turn everything to comedy, *hen In the third act there Is a wonderful palace of the genii, and a transformation scene and beautffiil golden fire shower at the close. Allis interpenetrated with fine music and lively -songs, of which "My Maid in the Moon" Ib a gem.
