The crime for which Mulvihill was on trial was the murder of "Denver Ed" Kelly, at Burns Lake, on July 29. A week after the killing, Mulvihill was given a preliminary hearing before T. J. Thorp, J. P., at Aldermere, was committed for trial and taken to New Westminster to await arraignment. The date set for the execution is just five months from the day of the murder. Back From Groundhog T. H. Taylor, the provincial government surveyor, with John Ellis, his assistant, returned on Tuesday from the Groundhog district, where their party, in conjunction with that of D. 0. Wing, has been engaged in surveying a network of meridian and base lines. While ibwill take several seasons to complete the work, a good deal has already been accomplished. Mr. Taylor's T>arty ran seventy miles of line, mostly through timber. All work has been tied to the astronomical station established by Astronomer McDiarmid at Sixth Cabin. Mr. Taylor returned to Victoria on Thursday, Mr. Ellis remaining here pending the arrival of the pack train.

Mexico Prepares To Break with U. S. New York, Oct. 15:���A despatch received from Mexico City today says the relations between Mexico and the United States are rapidly nearing the breaking point. It is believed that President Huerta is drafting a stinging reply to the representations of President Wilson that the United States would look with displeasure on any injury to the deputies who were placed under arrest after the arbitrary dissolution of the Mexican congress by Huerta. The minister of the interior announces that the coup d'etat will not prevent the holding of a general election this month, declaring that the only effect will be to cause the election of new senators and deputies to replace those put out of office by Hue?ta. Rich Ore On Skeena Vancouver, Oct. 16:���Edward Vallee and A. W.

HOME RULE DISPUTE MAY BE ARRANGED Progress at Smithers * Although only won from the forest within a few weeks, Smithers has already taken its rightful place as the chief town of the Northern Interior, and the busiest point on the Grand Trunk Pacific western division. Business men of standing have flocked here to join in the building up of a coming city, while trains from east and west are bringing crowds that tax the accommodation of lodging houses and restaurants.���Review. London, Oct. 13:���The chances are still in favor of a settlement of the home rule difficulty by arrangement between the Unionists and the government. The four Orange counties of Ulster may be excluded from the operation of the act by amendment during the third passage of the measure. How far Ulster is prepared to go to resist the establishment of a Home Rule Parliament in Dublin, is indicated by the appointment of a Provincial government containing a House of Peers and a Lower Chamber. The articles of government have been finally approved and completed: (1)���For repudiating and resisting the decrees of a National Parliament. (2)���For taking over the government of the Province in trust for the British nation. The date upon which the Provincial government will become operative, together with the necessary instructions to Unionists, will be made public on the i date upon which the Home Rule j Bill is placed upon the statute book, or such other day as may be determined on, and when it shall be deemed expedient. All power as to central author- ity��has been delegated to a standing committee of the Ulster Unionist Council. E. J. Hill is transacting business in Hazelton this week. GREAT MARINE DISASTER SUSPECTED WORK OF RIVALS Burning of Volturno in Mid-Atlantic, with Loss of 136 Lives, Believed to Have Been Planned by Competitors ���Steamer Belonged to Canadian Northern Railway London, Oct. 12:���Not since' the Titanic sank has Europe been thrilled as by a wireless message telling of the burning of the steamship Volturno in mid-Atlantic with a loss, so far as known, of 136 lives and the rescue of 521. The survivors were taken aboard a fleet of steamers summoned by the Volturno's call for help. The Volturno sailed from Rotterdam on October 2 for New York, and, according to the official statement, she carried twenty-two first cabin passengers, 539 steerage and a crew numbering ninety-six. The rescue ships reached the scene of the disaster in plenty of time to save all, but for hours stood by the blazing vessel, impotent because of the storm to reach the agonized men, women and children crowding the after, part of the ship and within a stone's throw of them. All Thursday night the rescuing boats made desperate efforts to' get alongside the doomed ship, but were beaten back by the waves until daylight on Friday, when oil from one of the steamers smoothed the sea sufficiently for the survivors to be taken off. The Volturno carried enough lifeboats to take 1000 people, but the gale prevented their successful use. Survivors generally agree that all lives that were lost were sacrificed in the endeavor to launch boats. Had the captain known that so many vessels were near, all might have been saved. Liverpool, Oct. 15:���Owners of the Uranium line, to which the burned Volturno belonged, believe the disaster to their vessel was deliberately planned by German and Dutch immigrant-carrying rival lines. Letters threatening that the vessel would be burned had been received. The fire started in the cargo, which included cottonseed oil. The chief credit for the rescue is given to the oil-carrying steamer Narragansett, which poured hei cargo into the sea, greatly subduing the waves. Warships have been despatched to destroy the floating hulk of the Volturno, which might become a danger to navigation. The steamer was owned by the Canadian Northern and leased to the Uranium line.

On a charge of obtaining money under false pretences, W. J. Klimpel appeared before Magistrate Hoskins on Thursday. It appears that the prisoner had done some building for Isadore Anger, had secured money to pay for labor and material, and had converted the cash to his own use. He was arrested while about to board a train at South Hazelton. For carrying a revolver-he wassentented to ten days in jail. On the more serious charge he was committed for trial.

McNicholl Promoted, Todd Superintendent With the announcement of the promotion of District Superintendent George A. McNicholl to the position of commissioner of the colonization and industrial department of the G. T. P., comes the news that J. H. Todd, the capable official who has been acting superintendent in the absence of Mr. McNicholl, has been appointed district superintendent, with headquarters at Smithers. Commenting on the appointment8 one of the papers published in Prince Rupert, where Mr. Todd is popular, says: "Mr. Todd is well known here" where, in the capacity of train despatcher and later acting superintendent, he has been closely identified with the railway line. He has served in the various parts of the continent in the capacity of train despatcher and other offices in the gift of railway companies and is admirably adapted for the position that he now attains. He is a very exact official, as his long training as a despatch - er would qualify him to be. The railway is practically his one thought and he is never off duty. His appointment to this position will bring Smithers into a more important position in a railway way. Located there, Mr. Todd will be in a position to look better after the enlarged service thai there is on this western part of the system."���Review. LIBERAL STRONGHOLD CARRIED FOR DORDEN Ottawa, Oct. 13:-The by-election in Chateauguay, Que., for the house of commons, was held on Saturday, resulting in a notable victory for James Morris, the Conservative candidate, who defeated Hon. Sidney Fisher, Liberal, by 135 majority. This isthefirsttimesinceConfdeeration that the constituency has returned a Conservative, and, as the naval policy was the issue, the result is taken to mean that even the people of the old Liberal strongholds refuse to support Sir Wilfred Laurier in his opposition to the Borden policy. The election is regarded as thc most significant event in political circles since 1911, and as Sir Wilfred Laurier had made it a per sonal fight, there are many whc believe that his retirement raaj come shortly.

HOSPITAL EQUIPMENT FUND IS GROWING The contention of the Conservatives that Canada would gain without sacrifice on her part the concessions sought under the late lamented reciprocity proposals seems to be borne out by the passing of the Democratic tariff measure. British Columbia especially should benefit by our neighbors' new tariff law. Meat and cattle, lumber, fish, coal ancl wood pulp are among the products of the province favorably affected by the reductions. In the cattle industry especially, the new law should be conducive to development. The conditions in large areas of British Columbia are ideal for stock-raising, and, with a favorable tariff opening the United States markets to our meat and cattle, there is no reason why the industry should not develop to a notable extent in the immediate future. A Dominion government animal inspector who has just made a tour of the province says: "In this country of yours you have all the natural conditions for the development of a great cattle-breeding industry, and while it may be argued that the competition of the United States has been heavy in this respect, I believe that the time has now come when you will be given a better showing, and it is up to you to take advantage of it. The cattle-breeding industry is a very considerable national asset, and if it could be started in British Columbia I am sure not only that it could be made a tremendous <uc- ce.-is, but also that, other provinces would lake up the work and so help to give to Canada an industry that is hers by all the laws of nature." In our recent resume of the took out records before the pre-emption laws ofthe province,! new act came into operation are the accidental omission of a line required to pay for the land, made it appear that pre-emptors : Those pre-empting lands under under the new regulations were i the prese.nt law have no pay- required to pay $1 an acre for, merits to make except the inci- their land.

It is the last publication compiled by the late Frank I. Clarke, of whose work in this class we have so often spoken in terms of commendation. It contains fifty-two pages and a number of illustrations. It gives "the latest information concerning the resources and industries of the Province." We find on the first page the following interesting statement, namely, that "all the great rivers flowing into the Pacific, except the Colorado, have their sources within the boundaries of British Columbia." Doubtless, few people have ever realized this, a geographical fact of very considerable importance, because it has much to do with determining the physical character of the Province and the climatic conditions of Alberta. We also read that the lake area of the Province aggregates 1,560,000 acres. The following resume of its resources is very excellent: With the exception of nickel (which has not yet been discovered in quantity), all that the other provinces of Canada boast of possessing in the way of raw material is here in abundance. British Columbia's coal measures are sufficient to supply the world for centuries; it possesses the greatest compact area of merchantable timber in North America; the mines have produced over $400,000,000, and may be said to be only in the early stages of development; the fisheries produce an average annual value of over $10,000,000, and, apart from salmon fishing, their importance is only beginning to be realized. There are immense deposits of magnetic and hematite iron of the finest quality, which still remain undeveloped. The agricultural and fruit lands produced approximately$21,000,000in 1912. and less than one-tenth of the available land is settled upon, much less cultivated. The Province has millions of acres of pulp wood as yet unexploited; petroleum deposits, but recently discovered, are among the most extensive in the world, and much of the territory is unexplored, its potential value being unknown. With all this undeveloped wealth within its borders, can it be wondered at that British Columbians are sanguine of the future ? Bestowed by prodigal Nature with all the essentials for the foundation and maintenance of an Empire, blessed with a healthful, temperate climate, a commanding position on the shores of the Pacific, and encompassed with inspiring grandeur and beauty, British Columbia is destined to occupy a position second to none in the world's commerce and industry.���Colonist.

They represent the sum total of all typewriter achievement���past and present. They contain every merit that the Remington has always had and every merit that any writing machine has ever had. They contain, in addition, new and fundamental improvements that no typewriter has ever had; among them the First Column Selector, the First Built-in Tabulator and the First Key-Set Tabulator. The Model 11 with Wahl Mechanism is also the First Adding and Subtracting Typewriter. These improvements are the latest contributions to typewriter progress, and they are Remington contributions���every one.

Sherwin Williams PAINTS ���> VARNISHES An appeal to the pride of the owner of a home Everyone who owes a home is anxious that that home shall make the best appearance possible. Two things are necessary to produce satisfactory results in painting and varnishing a home: First���A satisfactory color scheme. Second���Paints, varnishes, stains and enamels of such good quality that they not only give the exact color effect required, but are sufficiently durable to keep up the attractive appearance of the house in spite of the wear and tear of living in it. These are offered by the Sherwin- Williams Paints and Varnishes. The Sherwin-Williams Co. not only make every kind of paint and varnish used for a house and the best quality of that kind, but they make suggestions for the selection of colors, varnishes, stains and enamels, so that any given .idea can be carried out, and carried out with the best materials. Vou should see to it that when you buy paints and varnishes fcr your house, or any part of it, or when you give an order to your painter fur any painting and varnishing you want done, that Sherwin-Williams Paints and Varnishes are purchased. In large work it is always best to have a practical painter; but there are many little things about the house that you can readily finish yourself by using Sherwin-Williams ready-to- apply paints. Come in and have a little paint talk with us. Now is the time to "brighten up" your home for the long winter months. We can tell you the best product to use for any purpose you may have in mind and secure complete finishing specifications for you from The Sherwin- Williams Co., if you desire them, for special work.

The latest gold strike is reported on Wilson creek, running into a Yukon slough 200 miles above St. Michael. Gold ore assaying $50,000 a ton has been found in a new lead on the Crackerjack group, Texada Island, B. C. Twenty-three cases, five of which are murder charges, are on the docket at Vancouver assizes this week. It is stated that Colombia, backed by foreign capital, will build a canal to compete with the Panama enterprise. The vigilant watch kept by Dominion fisheries cruisers has practically done away with fish poaching off the British Columbia coast. . It is expected the White Pass and Yukon railway will operate a line of steamers from Seattle and Vancouver to Skagway next year. Russian naval officers have discovered a new uninhabited mountainous land, possibly as large as Greenland, 500 miles north of Asia. Authorities say the discovery will prove to be the last great discovery of lands. Jack Johnson, the notorious negro pugilist, who forfeited $30,000 bonds in a white slavery case, has become a citizen of France.

Not one building of any sort in the settlement, which had a population of 300, remained standing after the gale. It is reported all the inhabitants escaped with their lives. Naval authorities deny Sir Wilfred Laurier's statement, in a political speech, that the British navy, "collected in home waters at the time Mr. Borden brought in his naval bill, has now scattered to the ends of the Empire." The ex-premier used the statement as an argument against the existence of an emergency. Despite the recent roundup of Italians suspected of complicity in recent bomb outrages in New York, the east side was disturbed on Monday by one of the most terrific bomb explosions in recent years. An entire block was shaken, and although no one was seriously injured, 250 persons were driven from their homes. Vancouver is making plans for the 1915 convention of the American Mining Congress, and in connection with it a great mining exhibition at Hastings park during three months of that year is being discussed. This will be a splendid advertisement of British Columbia's mining resources. Mining experts on the continent would be shown every mineral from salt to platinurn, all produced in this province. The Royal Wedding London, Oct, 15:���The wedding of Prince Arthur of Connaught and the Duchess of Fife, which was solemnized today, occasioned the greatest gathering of notables since the King's coronation. Militant suffragettes followed the procession and threw literature into the Royal carriage. The women were hissed by the crowd. Several were arrested. The Duke and Duchess of Connaught will sail for Canada on Saturday. It is the general belief that Prince Arthur will soon be his father's successor as governor-general of Canada. Fire at Treadwell Juneau, Oct. 11:���The shaft house of the Treadwell mine was destroyed by fire today and the loss is estimated at $40,000. The blaze was discovered at 3 o'clock in the morning, and it was an hour before the firemen, working with eleven streams of water under a pressure of 200 pounds, were able to get the fire under control. Their efforts confined the blaze to the shaft house and saved much valuable machinery housed in adjoining buildings. The company announced today it would not rebuild the burned structure. The fire has not affected the stamp mills, as rock is being delivered to them through another shaft. Dated at Hazelton, B. C, September 4th, 1913. H. WELCH, Assessor and Collector, Omineca Assessment District. Shipyards for B. C. London, Oct. 15:���Sir Richard McBride and Laurence McRae, his secretary, sailed for Canada on the Olympic today. A passenger on the same steamer is Yarrow, the noted constructor of torpedo destroyers, who contemplates establishing shipbuilding works at Vancouver and Esquimalt. He believes the Borden naval policy will be carried, and that as a consequence many smaller war vessels will be built in Canada. Men's and ladies'sweater coats adapted for life at Sargent's.

X James Cronin, the well-known mining man, spent a few Jays at his ranch near Smithers, leaving this morning for Spokane. Chas. Chapman, manager of the ranch, showed Mr. Cronin the big crops of the season, and the latter was more than ever pleased with his property and with the Valley in general. It is understood that mining will be resumed on the Dibble group, the big silver-lead property in the Babine range owned by Mr. Cronin, as soon as supplies can be taken in next spring. The completion of the railway to Smithers gives the owner an opportunity to develop this pro nising property at much less cost than formerly.-- Smithers Review.

Smithers Notes (From Thursday's Revelw) King's survey party has moved camp to Seymour lake. Jack McNeil, of Aldermere, returned yestereday from a trip to Seattle. The Oyster Bay cafe opened this week and is doing good business. Although not yet completed, James Girling's big rooming house is full every night. C. E. Bailey, inspector of preemptions, returned this morning from a trip to the railhead. Angus McDonald, of Cunningham's Hazelton staff, wa's an interested visitor in Smithers this week. Jack Goodwill came from Aldermere yesterday to meet Mrs. Goodwill, who has been visiting the coast. Dr. Stone passed through today, on his way to Hazelton, after an inspection of the camps on this section. The Review is having a temporary office built, for use during the construction of its large quarters at Main and First. A. M. Tod, the electrician, is engaged in wiring new buildings. He is having astoreand dwelling erected at Second and King. Road Superintendent Williscroft was here last evening, to meet Mrs. Williscroft, who returned from a visit to Victoria. F. D. Eason has let a contract for a large store building on Main, near Third. He is also building a bungalow on one of his lots. On the Hudson Bay ranch, near Smithers, R. J. McDonell has harvested one hundred tons of fine potatoes from ten acres of land. C. W. Teetzel, the Singer sewing machine man, interviewed the ladies of the town during the week and sold a number of machines. Smithers poolroom, on Alfred street, is a favorite resort with townspeople and visitors. The proprietors are installing three h'rst-class tables. Additional temporary buildings have been erected for station purposes. Work on the big station is expected to begin within a few days. A. Chisholm, the hardware merchant, is making all possible speed in building his Main street store, carrying on business in the meantime in a large tent. The mill of the Seymour Lake Lumber Co., near the railway yard, is turning out ten thousand feet of lumber every day, and is selling every foot of its product. F. G. Heal and family returned last evening from an extended tour. Mr. Heal is one of the pioneer ranchers of the Valley and has prospered in this district. R. H. Gerow, who is engaged in the lumber and transportation business at Burns lake, came down yesterday. He reports business good in his part of the district. Chris Peterson, one of the progressive ranchers of the adjacent district, has brought in a car of fine cattle, including a thoroughbred Jersey bull of the highest class, and fourteen Holstein cows. Chris is going into the dairying business in earnest. Rev. F. L. Stephenson of Ladysmith, the popular clergyman who for some years represented the Anglican church in the Bulk- ley Valley, was here this week, I visiting his Valley land and renewing his acquaintances. He left for the west this morning. Fifty buildings are in course of erection, while contractsforothers are being let daily. It is only six weeks since building operations began, and finishing material has only begun to arrive since the inauguration of the regular train service two weeks ago, so that it has not been possible to complete any of the permanent buildings. Many of these are far enough advanced, however, to show that the business men who are locating in Smithers have perfect confidence in the stability of the town. Large and handsome structures will be the general rule on Main street. Not content to await the completion of their buildings, many merchants and other business men have begun operations in their uncompleted premises or in tents, and there is little that cannot be obtained in Smithers today. Within a few days the sidewalks will be completed and the streets placed in better condition, which will much facilitate building and general business. The first store building erected on Main street was that of R. S. Sargent. The store proper is a two-story building, 24x53, which will later be moved to the rear of the lots, while a much larger building will take its place. The store fixtures are not yet in place, and J. A. Macdonald, local manager of the business, is using the large warehouse in the rear as a temporary store. Freight for the establishment is arriving on every train, and a complete stock of general merchandise will be in place as soon as the carpenters are through.
