NELSON. B. C. FRIDAY MORNING. MARCH 20. 1914 50c PER MONTH. .290 [MISSION TO VISIT MEXICO [To Investigate Conditions on ' .Behalf of President iwil80n not Hostile to huerta ■Forfeiture of Canadian Com- | pany's Franchise Is International Question. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) WASHINGTON, March lfi.—The ■United States government will wel- Icqme a reopening of negotiations with ■the Huerta government, or the con- Istltutionallsts, and will be glad to con- Isider any proposal that will tend to Idriaw the various factions together in |a plan for the restoration of peace. This Is the attitude of President ■Wilson as it was revealed today after ■reports reached here saying Senor ■Portillo y Rojas, minister of foreign ■affairs in the Huerta cabinet, had gone fto meet John Llnd, Mr. Wilson's pergonal representative, to seek a resumption of the peace parleys, Senor ■Rojas has been mentioned as the man ■who, .would succeed Huerta if tbe halter retired, and the object of the visit ■to Iyind, it has been reported, was Ito acquaint him with his personality. ■Incidentally, the president today, ■while remarking that he had no hopes "\>f any new parleys, spoke in compli Imentary terms of the Mexican min lister of foreign affairs as a man r,l |hlgh character. Not Antagonistic to Huerta. What the president emphasizes in ■his Informal discussions on the Mex- Ilcan situation is that he, us president lof the United 'States, has never sought Ito approve or disapprove of Individ- Inula who may aspire to the presidency [of Mexico, and that he has no list of ■men whom he holds under the so- icalled ban because of alleged compile* Ilty in the assassination of Madero. ■His refusal to recognise Huerta, it ■may be stated oh the highest author- Ilty, was not based on any personal ■antagonism to Huerta, but on the ■ground that the constitutionalists Wwould never be reconciled to the man ■who had overthrown Madero and ■Suarez, an-j that governments Het up ■by arbitrary force and not reflecting ■the popular will should not he dealt ■with by the United States. s I In considering peace proposals from ■the Huerta government the United ■states, it is known now, will do all ■that It can to forward a peaceful set Itlement, but the conviction is as ■ strong with the president today as it ■was when he sent his instructions to ■John Llnd last summer that peace in ■Mexico in the last analysis is dependent upon terms that will be acceptable alike to the constitutionalists land the Huerta administration. He ■recognizes that the value of all pro- Iposnls depends upon how far such ■plans Beek to draw the Mexican fac- ■tlons together in common agreement ■on a provisional president. V U May Send Commission. J ' Gle of the suggestions made to ■ President Wilson lately contemplates ■the sending of a commission of Americans of [prominence to investigate [conditions in Mexico. Unofficial re- Iports -have had It that both Carranza land Huerta would receive such a com- Imlsslon. President Wilson is care- IfuIIy considering the suggestion said ■to have been made originally by Os- Icare Strauss, former ambassador to ■ Turkey and prominent In the cause lof world peace. The president, it Is ■known, would be glad to send such a ■commission, if it could assist the M-ex- ■lean factions in arriving at an .agree- Iment, but -it is believed ne feels that ■actual .peace proposals must neces- Isarlly originate with the Mexican fac- itions, and that, unless the commission ■were invited to go to Mexico its er- irand would be fruitless, mediation of Ithe .same .sort having .previously been [rejected .by both Mexican factions. Canadian .Company'* Franchise. fBy Dnlly News Leased Wire* MEXICO .CITY, March 19.-The government's Implied threat to dispossess Ithe Mexican Light & Power company Bof the franchise under which the sub- ■urban street car lines are operated ■has been the subject of reports to Ithplr respective governments by the ■diplomatic representatives of Great ■Britain, France and Belgium. The ■Mexican government's contention that ■the franchise has expired has been de- Jnled by the company. The question ■arose late In 1013 and again in the ■present year, when Sir Lionel Carden ' Ithe British minister, took a .hand in ■the controyertiy, aB the company is 8 ■British cqncei'n, with headquarters in ■ Montreal. The principal stockholder lis Dr. P. S. Pearson. I The diplomats here attach consider- labie significance to the Mexioan government's attitude toward this cotti- l-pany, as possibly Indicative of an in- Itention to raise money through for- leign Invest6rs.

EYEWITNESS TELLS OF SHOOTING Bank Burglar Stopped to Pick Up Money From Around Pros- trate Manager. fBy Daily News Leased Wire* MORDEN, Man., March 19.—Evidence of witnesses who were placed on the'stand today by the crown prosecutor, W. H. Hastings, in the case of John Krafehenko, charged with the murder of H. M. Arnold and the robbery of the Bank of Montreal at Plum Cotdee, was heard. After disposing of the photographer and surveyor, who respectively identified photographs and plans bearin/ on the Plum Coulee affair, the crown called John Welbe of Plum Coulee, a Mennonite. According to his evidence, Wetbe had been on the point of entering the bank at the time of the crime, and through the doorway had seen the back of a man who was facing Arnold, Weibe could Bee Arnold with two hands above his head. Arnold said something that Wetbe did not ae&r, but interpreted to mean that he \ not wanted in the bank, and iicwM- ingly went on down the street. He had proceeded but a few yards when h0 turned and saw a man wearing dark overcoat dash out of the biiuk and walk quickly around the corner, followed instantly by the hanker. As the fugitive fled around the corner Welbe noticed something like a revolver in his left hand. The witness turned toward the hank a$n\n and heard the shot. He crossed -he road and saw Arnold lying on the ash- plle. The other man stepped .>ver Arnold's prostrnte form and stoo.ied to''gather «P some money he had dropped in his flight. He then turned and ran to the automobile which awaited him about a block away. J, D. Suffield, counsel for Krafehenko, cross-examined Welbe, but both cross-examination and the preceding examination by Mr. Hastings were much delayed by the court interpreter being unfamiliar with tbe dialect Welbe used. Another interpreter experienced the same difficulty, and fin- ally Dr. McLavls, a witness who will later appear, was sworn in, his residence in Plum Coulee having familiar- (zed him with dialects such as Weibe's. Welbe's cross-examination concluded, Cornelius Thiesen was then^called. Thlesen had seen the bank manager chase the man in tbe dark overcoat who came out of the hank; hnd seen the manager suddenly fall and then heard a crack, which he believed -vas the firing of a Bhot. The man In black, he said, had turned back and from around the prostrate body of the stricken banker had gathered up paper money which was scattered on the ground, resting one bund on Arnold. The manager had called "help" once. The man had then run down the lane, and he had seen that his face was masked. Asked why he sa\A masked, the witness stated that he was masked "from below up to his nose. ABked as to the material of the mask, Thiesen said: "It. looked hairy." Referring hack, Thiesen Bald the banker caught hold of the man from behind, putting liis arms around the man's body. At this time he did not see if either Arnold or the man had anything in their hands. "He did not notice quickly enough," The court then adjourned.

OTTAWA, March 19.—Consideration of the estimates of the department of the interior were a cause of an animated sitting today. Trouble came into the debate in the evening when western members, particularly W. E. Knowles, Moose .law, complained of the conduct of government homestead inspectors and land agents in the west. The member for Moose Jaw asserted tbat tbe records of the department as tabled show that in 1912, preceding the Saskatchewan election, several homestead inspectors had done practically no work because they bad been engaged in political work for the Conservative party. Hon, Robert Rogers, in reply, declared that those men, who included Inspectors Shields, Miller, McLaren and Smyth, had not done much because in the time complained of they were wrongfully under arrest at the instance of the Scott government. He declared thnt charges against them were trumped up, nnd that the whole proceedings demonstrated tbat justice and fair play do not exist in Saskatchewan under the Scott government. W. E. Knowles, in reply, said that the arrests, which were justified, occurred in July. The records showed that the inspectors were otherwise engaged than in connection with their duties In June. Hon. W. J. Roche produced a number of affidavits to refute an allegation made against Mr. -Campbell by D. B. Neely on the affidavit of a half- breed, Hon. Arthur Meighen called upon Dr. Neely to apologize, hut the latter declined to do so. He said that, having received BUch an affidavit, lie waa quite justified In bringing the matter, up in the house. The debate continued until after midnight, when the mouse rose without much progress having been made. Exhibition Dances Prohibited. An act to amend the Indian act was introduced hy Hon. W. J. Roche at the opening of the house this afternoon. One amendment deals with industrial schools and provides that where there are n0 regular industrial schools the minister can appoint a public Bchool in this .capacity. A further amendment prohibits the attendance of IndianB at dances or potlatohes outside their own reserve. Employment Agencies. Alphonse Vervllle .asked whether the government had any jurisdiction over private employment bureaus. Dr. Roche replied that any employment bureau with Immigrants must flrBt receive «• Hoense from the department of immigration and tbat that license was granted only on the certificate of the local immigration agent and the chief of police as to the good character of the applicant. The-inspector of the province of Quebec resides in Montreal, said, the minister, and bo far as possible prevents immigrants from being swindled. The department, he added, had no jurisdiction over the dealings of employment agencies with non-immigrnnts. Hon. George P. Graham asked whether the shops being erected by the Transcontinental Railway company at Quebec are located on the line of the National Transcontinental railway. Dr. Reid answered that the .shops would be on the line, of the National Transcontinental railway when it was completed. W. B.

Various names were mentioned in the lobby of the chamber for the post of minister of marine, hut Premier Doumergue has decided to take no action for the present. While some kind of a demonstration by the anti-Republicans is certain to be attempted at the funeral of M. Calmette tomorrow, the police authorities do not anticipate serious trouble.

(By Dally News Leased Wire.l OTTAWA, March 19.—The Citizen says: "The situation in respect to •■he Canadian Northern railroad bond guarantee application has cleared little in the light of Wednesday's ministerial caucus. The question has long be-in under consideration and it will be considered more. Before anything by way of explanation is brought down there will likely be another caucus. "The principal demand Ib for a complete statement of the company's affairs. Those who call for such a showdown are not necessarily-hostile to the Canadian Northerrt railroad, but are insistent that before anything !s done there must be not only a proper, guarantee of security, hut the clearing up of the Canadian Northern railroad's financing methods and a statement of where all the assistance received in the past, bas gone. There is a growing belief that the Canadian Northern application is not the last word lh the railway situation, but that if it succeeds, the Grand Tiumk- Pacific also will come forward for a loan, bond guarantee or assistance of some sort in finishing the mountain section of its line." SAYS COCHRANE GUILTY OF TREASON Senator Objects to His Presence at Function in Honor of Sir Edward Carson (By Dally News Leased Wlre.> OTTAWA, March 19.—In the upper house this afternoon, Senator Choquette read a press report stating that Hon. Frank Cochrane had been among those who recently attended a function In London at which Sir Edward C: son w presented with an infantry fighting sword in a silver scabbard. Senator Choquette said he was surprised to learn that a member of the Canadian government had gone to demonstration against the home rule proposals of the British government. Especially was he surprised when it was reported that Hon. Mr. Cochrane was sick. Senator Choquette asked If the Canadian government was against home rule, and if Hon. Mr. Cochrane was in England representing that view of the government. He wanted to know if the government favored tin views of those who proposed to fight against the British constitution. Sena tor "Choquette tonight said that Canadians generally were loyal and would be displeased with their minister who had gone to England and had asso elated himself with those who proposed to fight against tho soldiers of the King. Hon. J. A. Lougheed—The government has no official information as to the movements of the Hon. Frank Cochrane, who has gone abroad in search of health, but the government Is confident in the loyalty of tho Hon. Frank Cochrane and believes that the loyalty of Mr. Cochrane would bo equal to that of tho senator from Grandmere (Choquette). "The government amy have confidence in the Hon. Frank Cochrane, but we, In the senate, the country aud the empire have no confidence In the Hon. Frank Cochrane, who left Canada on the pretence of ill health and crossed the Atlantic to join the rebellious movement," said Senator Cloran. He added that Mr. Cochrane should bo recalled by cable and disciplined. Sena tor Cloran said Sir Edward Carson did not represent the views of the peopli of Ulster, but merely tho view of i fow students in Dublin. He held that It was vexatious to Canadians to find a leading Canadian minister joining hands with a man of that sort and joining hands with him across a sword. He wanted tbo government to declare that it did not approve of tho action of Mr. Cochrane. "I maintain that under the present circumstances the action of Hon. Mr. Cochrane is a crime and an act of treason." It was tho government' duty to investigate, and If the facts wero found to bo true as reported, Mr. Cochrane should be asked for his resignation.

(By Daily News Leased Wire) LONDON, March 20.—Grave events are impending in Ulster, according to the Unionist newspapers, and a rumor is current that the government is preparing for the military occupation of the province. There are various,indications that a criflis has heen reached. The vote of censure on .the British government, which was moved in the commons yesterday by Bonar Law, leader of the opposition, was rejected 345 to 252. Arthur J. Balfour, summoned hy Bonar Law, made a hurried return from the Riviera and arrived at London in time to participate in the division. There were reports also of the threatened arrest of Sir Edwar-d, Carson and other Ulster Unionist leaders, but it was officially declared that there waa no truth in the statement that warrants had been signed for such arrests. Sir Edward Carson, however, made a dramatic exit from the house before the debate was concluded to catch a train for Belfast. Austen Chamberlain declared last night that Sir Edward Carson had been called away in response to sudden developments in Ireland. Other Unionists asserted that the- Ulster men can no longer be restrained from au outbreak nnd that Sir Edward's mission Is to endeavor to hold them in check. Blood Will Flow. Tho Dally Telegraph's lobbyist say: Unless all omens are false blood will he split fn Ulster before the house of commons sees Sir Edward ■ Carson again." The Marquis of Londonderry and other prominent Ulsterites are now on their way to Belfast and their action ls regarded as a challenge to the government if, as asserted, an intention exists to lssue warrants for their Hires t. The view of both Liberal and Unionist morning papers Is that after yesterday's debate all chances of settlement by consent are ended and the home ruin bill will be passed in its original form. It is said tbe government has assured the Nationalist leaders that Bonar Law's referendum offer will not ho accepted. Emergency Force. 'I-1 '■ id -i-M H Leased Wire.l BELFAST, March 19.—An emergency force of picked men from the Ulster volunteers was hastily summoned to headquarters tonight. The motive for tbe sudden call has been kept secret, but rumors persist of military action on the part of the government and projected arrests. Says Hope of Peace Gone (Western Associated Press Special Cable.) LONDON, March 20.—The Ulster situation remains electrical. Indeed, It seems now apparent that no settlement Is possible while the home rule bill is passing through the commons. Foster Fraser, writing In -the Standard, even asserts that politicians will not settle the trouble and all hope of peace has evaporated. An opinion Is prevalent, however, that a final supreme effort to secure parliamentary settlement will coincide with the appearance nf the" bill in the house of lords, optimists urging that the tone of Bonar Law's speech loaves a hope that an arrangement may yet bo reached. The concensus of opinion on the referendum proposal put forward by Bonar Law is that it is entirely unacceptable. Tho Liberal press views the proposal to resort to a referendum us a mere device to annihilate tho opera-' tlon of the Parliament act, the Dally Chronicle pointing out that the application of the referendum to home rule entails Its incorporation as a permanent part of thc political institutions of tho country, involving a revolution of British principles of government and opening up the possibility of a demand for a referendum ou every biff Issue before parliament. Move Toward Catastrophe Tho Standard says this morning: "We are moving fast toward a catastrophe and tho government Is making no real effort to arrest the ruinous process now In operation." The Morning Post asserts that the only result of yesterday's debate will be an aggravation of tho already serious crisis. Non-partisan observers, however, discount Sir Edward Carson's fierceness as intended purely for Belfast consumption, and attribute pacific rather than bolllgerent intentions In connection with his visit to Belfast. ,It Is notable in this connection that the Unionist press unanimously counsels restraint In Ulster, which the Express describes as "a magazine of high ex- .(Coutlnued on 1'ago Three.).

The final contest at the Arena tonight resulted in a score of two to one In the local team's favor.' It was something of a slugging match and rough play was the rule from start to finish. ThiB, the third meeting of Torontos and Victoria in the Stanley eup' series in Toronto, was under the National Hockey association rules, with the western penalty system. Both 'teams used crudo methods to break up their opponents' attack and the man with the puck wns generally sent sprawling before he had a chance to shoot. While the rough play was evenly divided, Poulin stirred up most of the trouble Right from thc start he hooked, tripped and stashed. Tor ontos did not take kindly to his rough play and retaliated. Before the game was over the players on both teams, with the exception of the goaltenders, let hockey go, and contented themselves with waiting a chance to give and take with an opponent. Victoria played much better tonight than in their former games, and had ortsily as much of tbe play as Torontos. their entire forward line, with the exception of Poulin, displayed more speed and better judgment in handling the puck when close in on the nets, and Holmes was given, plenty to do. As in the other games, his work was good throughout, but he did not over shadow Lindsay, who played his best game of tho series. The Victoria forwards checked bach well, and with ■the rough work close In on thc goal prevented the light Toronto attack from shooting ns much as usual. Foyston and Wilson wore tireless workers, but bad little chance against the heavy work of the husky Victoria defence. Davidson, who was unable to -play on Tuesday, on account of Illness, replaced Wilson several times tonight, and when he wns not roughing It with his opponents, did some good rushing. Cameron gave Poulin a nasty crack on the head near the end of thc game, when ho swung his stick after being relieved of tho puck. The visitors had been doing this throughout the entire game, so he received his own modi cine. McGiffen was only on for a few minutes, but the. short while be' was on was filled with thrills,. Geiige tried to get McGiffen several times nnd once succeeded, when he charged the little fellow, but without any damaging r< suits. First period—No scoro.

FRIDAY, MARCH 20 SENATOR BOSTOCK HAS HIS CHANCE. The election of Senator Hewitt Rostock to the position of Liberal leader in the senate will be received w^th gratification by his many friends ln British Columbia, and he has them among both political parties, and with a very great measure of interest by the people of the province general! As leader of his party in the upper house, Mr. Rostock will be the spokesman of a very large section of the Canadian people on all public questions. The duties of senate leader are, of course, not nearly so strenuous as are those of a party leader in the house of commons. They' are, however, Important, sb that the position is regarded not only as an honorable one, but one which it requires tact and ability to properly fill. In saying this sight is not lost of the fact that the Canadian senate as at present constituted is an anomaly a country which is supposed to enjoy a democratic form of government. Appointed for life, generally in return for party services; of moro or less meritorious character, a majority in the senate may indefinitely defeat the will of the people as expressed at the polls by refusing to pass legislation sent up by the house of commons. This has happened on several occasions. This is the way Premier Borden's propose-] contribution of J36,- 000,000 to the British navy was prevented, and In the same session a grant or $10,000,000 for tlic Improvement of highways throughout the provinces was killed in the same way.

Doherty said the appointment would be made "within a reasonable time." A third reading was given to the bill to amend the Merchants Shipping act. Fisheries Treaty. Consideration of the act to amend the Fisheries act was then resumed in committee. Hon. J, D. Hazen, in reply to opposition questions, made a statement In regard to tbe fisheries treaty which still awaits action on the part of the United States congress be fore It can become effective. He re ferred to the fact that the Dominion parliament in 1909 without discussion had passed a bill making the treaty framed by the joint commission ef- fectlve in so far as Canada wus concerned. He said that when tho treaty was first presented to the American senate lobbyists arrived in Washington to protest against its approval. This, he considered, was a most Improper course, but probably the president had no power to prevent the American fishing interests taking such action. As a result of representations made, Canada was requested to consent to some modifications of the treaty. Consent was given to changes in certain regulations. Mr. Hazen went on to say that in 1912 the president of the United States had explained that it had been impossible to give effect to the treaty at the 1911 session because it was devoted entirely to tariff legislation. The necessary legislation was finally passed by the American senate, but when the matter came up before the house the lobbyists again appeared at Washiagtori and asked for further concessions. These Canada refused to grant, and it was decided to notify the American government If the arrangement was not adhered to by March 1, 1914 the treaty must lapse. In view of the fact that tiie bill t0 give effect to the treaty Is still hefore congress, the government had decided not to abide strictly by this notification. Word was expected from Washington in the near future and If favorable action Is not taken the treaty is dead. Mr. Hazen pointed out that under existing conditions Canadian fishermen complain because they are subject to restrictive regulations In International waters which are not binding on American fishermen. In the event of the expiry of the treaty the government will have t0 decide whether or not these regulations aro to be continued. In answer to u ouestlon put by Mr. Carroll, lion. .LU. Kcltf said that he was struggling with the question oE Improving Uie fisheries protective service of Inland waters. Ho trusted that before a,fiOther year was passed, they would bave an improved service. His view was that it was better to have fewer officers and the men better paid.

There was also an affidavit from Dr. William Ha.ll who attended Pollra's injuries. The doctor declared in this that Poitra bad only sustained a slight frost bite on one toe. Dr. Neely said he would) accept Campbell's statement but did not think the minister had gone far enough with his investigation.

Rexail Orderlies enable you to take less physic, and all without griping, purging or excessive looseness. Salts and harsh physics usually give only temporary a-Iicf and often leave the bowels worse off than before. Rexail Orderlies move the bowels promptly, and soothe, tone and strengthen t!ie intestinal muscles, leaving them healthy and regular in action. They taste like candy, and the movement they cause is as easy and natural asthough your bowels were in perfect health and you never had to take any physic at all.

Then add one ounce tincture cadomene compound, (not cardamom) and one ounce compound essence cardial. Mix. Shake well und take a teaspoon- ful after each meal and one when retiring. The above ingredients, except the syrup are rare concentrations of purest drugs without opiates and are used for various prescriptions. ■ THE ELECTRIC FURNACE It has been generally supposed that British Jsmelters and refiners have shown considerable reluctance to adopt the electrio furnace, but statistics go to show that after all they have not lagged very much behind other countries.

Another version would seem to indicate that the controversy on quotas Is no nearer settlement, that the representatives have practically reached a deadlock and that sudden adjournment Is probable.

LIMITS INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE May Not Exceed Thirty-Five Per Cent of Companies' Capital—Responsibility of Directors (By Daily New8 Leased Wire) OTTAWA, March 19.—A discussion as to what amount of Its funds a trust company should be allowed to invest In real estate and as to whether regulations in this regard should become retroactive, was the most important feature of the discussion of the new trust companies bill before the commerce and banking committee today. It was finally decided that in the committee's opinion the amount of paid-up capital to bo invested in real estate should be limited to 35 per cent. The original limitation was 40 per cent., and an amendment had been proposed bringing this down to 30, but it was compromised to meet the new com panles with little or no reserve. As regards making this provision retro active, so as to affect companies at ready incorporated. It was decided after some discussion to leave this Im port'ant amendment over for further consideration.1- The first amendment whicb came up was that proposed by tbe finance min ister, providing that trust companies should have not less than five and not more than 21 directors. The bill as originally drawn set forth that shareholders should be eligible for election j,s a trust company director unless holding ln his own name 30 paid-up shares of capital stock of the company. E. W. Nesbitt, North Oxford, favored cutting this to 20 shares, stating that poor men often made the best directors. J. Webster, Brockville, favored 25 shares and on a vote being taken this was carried. There was also some debate over a proposed amendment that every shareholder should, until the whole amount of his stock was paid up, be Individually liable to the company for an amount equal to that paid theron. This amendment proposed to take the place of the original bill, by which shareholders would bo responsible to creditors of tbe company. The amendment was held over. The next clause considered was one holding directors of a company who paid a dividend when It was insolvent liable for that amount. An amendment was proposed to make them liable only when they actually knew the company was insolvent when they paid the dividend, und the clause was finally sent back to the finance minister. A provision to the effect that directors shall be jointly, and severally liable to clerks and employes for a year's salary was amended, on motion of Mr. White, by . making It only three months' salary. The clause In the new bill restrict ing the investment of the paid-up capital of trust companies in real estate, to 40 per cent and an amendment reducing this to 30 per cent., wore then considered. Mr. Prlngle instanced the case of ono of the largest existing trust companies which held real estate worth ¥540.000 and had let contracts for new office buildings—one'of them n $200,000 building In Montreal—$812,000 in all.

Run-down, debilitated people, those who need- strength, or who suffer from chronic coughs, colds or bronchitis may find help In theBe letters. Dr. C. L. Drecse, Goshen, N. Y., says: "In cases where the curative influence of cod liver oil Is needed, " prescribe Vlnol, which I find to far more palatable and efficacious than other cod liver preparations, is a worthy cod liver preparation in which a physician may have every confidence." Dr, L. B. Bouchelle, of Thomasviile. da., says: "I have used Vinol In my family an-} In my general practice with the most satisfactory results. It Is exceedingly beneficial to those afflicted with bronchial or pulmonary troubles, and to create strength." Dr. W. St. Rand of Evans Mills, N. Y„ says: "I want to say that I have used and prescribed Vlnol In my practice and it will do all you claim for it and more." We return your money if Vlnol falls to heln vou. Wm. Rutherford, Druggist, Neison, B. C, If the provision remained at 40 per cent, it would give such a company sufficient leeway when doing a coast to coast business, to erect suitable offices for itself, said Mr. Prlngle. Hon. Mr. White said companies could. If they wished, apply surplus profits to such an end or increase their capital. He thought $812,000 was "• pretty fair amount in real estate." Mr. Prlngle suggested 35 per cent, but Mr. Nesbitt said that If a com pany were going to increase its building It should increase its capital and stood out', for 30 per cent. On a showing of honds, 30 per cent, had it, but this decision was rescinded when Mr. White pointed, out that companies Just starting would have at first no reserve and If cut down to 30 per cent, would be laboring under an injustice. It was finally agreed to fix the limit at 35 per cent, of unimpaired paid-up capital or reserve. Amendments were then carried limiting thc amount to be loaned on the stock or bonds of any company to one-fifth of such stock or bonds, ani providing that no trust company shall make loans to its directors or more than 10 per cent, of Its paid-up capital to its shareholders. The amendment proposed by E. N. Rhodes, Cumberland, making the real eatnte limitation retroactive, then came up. Hon. Mr. White pointed out that an existing compnny might have acquired large buildings and placed three-quarters of Its existing capital therein, and that this provision would thus be somewhat Inequitable. The amendment was finally allowed to stand, however. BURY AT COAST (Bv Dally Newa Leased Wire.' VANCOUVER, B. C, March 19.— Vice-President G. J. Bury of the Canadian Pacific railway arrived her© tonight. En route he stopped over at Rogers pass, where the long tunnel is being constructed. Asked if he had anything to say regarding construction work, Mr, Bury replied In the negative. Tablets are, we honestly believe, the best remedy made for Indigestion, Dyspepsia and all other Stomach Ills We Know They're Good Delays Are Dangerous You Risk No Money Rexiill Dyspepsia Tablets, in addition to other ingredient tf, contain Pepsin and Bismuth, two great digestive aids used by the entire medical profession. They soothe the inflamed stomach, check the heartburn and distress, stimulate a healthy secretion of the gastric juice, aid in rapid and comfortable digestion of the food and help to quickly convert it into rich red blood, and thereby into flesh, bone and rouscte. Tbey relieve stomach distress promptly, and, used regularly for a Bhort time, tend to restore the stomach to a comfortable, easy-acting, healthy state. They aid greatly to promote regular bowel action. Don't neglect indigestion, for it frequently leads tb all sorts of ills and complications. Thc pain and discomfort is not the most unfortunate part The fact that when the stomach is not acting right, the material needed to repair the wastes that arc constantly taking place in the body is not being given to the blood either in thc proper condition or fast enough is far more serious. Nothing will cause more trouble than an unhealthy stomach. The blues, debility, lack of strength and energy, constipation, biliousness, headaches and scores of other serious ailments result from the failure of the stomach to properly do its work.

ADVOCATES NEED FOR EGG MARKS ACT Provincial Poultry Instructor Says Great Strides Are Being Made in Industry—Buy Stock at Home. An "egg marks act" w*-ilch "would protect consumer and rancher against the sale of eggs of uncertain age under the guise of those of the -strictly fresh grade, government regulations to prevent the shipment into Canada from the United States of diseased- poultry which in many cases is later sold as stock to thc detriment of the British Columbia poultry Industry, and steps to educate poultry raisers of this province to a realization of the fact that they can buy just as good stock on this side of the line as in the states and at lower prices, were advocated by J. K. Terry of Victoria, provincial poultry instructor, who waa at the Hume last night. Eloquent of. the great strides which are being token by the poultry raising Industry in this orovince, said N.r, Terry, wa$ the attendance at the 'Farmers' institute meetings which he has been .addressing on poultry raising in various parts of the province. The attendance this year, he said, has ' een probably twice as great as on any previous tour. Within 10 years the province will lie an exporter of eggs to the prairie market, he predicted. Regarding tbe shipment Into British Columbia of diseased birds, of which many were sold for stock purposes, Mi*. Terry explained that produce men at the coast were buying poultry in carload lots for the table and had Sound that they could pick out the better looking of the fowl and sell them for breeding purposes. Many of these birds were seriously diseased und the government had arrange,! t0 have an enquiry made into the matter, lie said. , He hopes that legislation will he brought down at Ottawa as soon possible to provide for the marking nf boxes containing eggs In order that the purchaser may know what he is buying. Efforts are being made by the Kov- ei nment and the Hritish Columbia Poultry association, of which Mr. Terry is secretary, to educate poultry raisers into buying stock in British Columbia, and with that object a directory of fanciers had been issued. "It makes nie sore to see poultry raisers send out large sums of money to the United States for stock birds which they could secure for lesB money within a few miles of their own yards,' he remarked. "Another point upon which poultry raisers should he advised," said Mr. Terry, "Is that it is inadvisable to keep roosters running with flocks hens after the breeding season wben the eggs are being produced for eating purposes only. Infertile eggs will keep much longer than those Unequalled for General Uae. W, P. TIEpNEY, General Sales Agent, Nelson, B. C. ' Cars shipped to all railway points.
