The Ladysmith Daily Ledger was published in Ladysmith, in the Cowichan Valley region of Vancouver Island, and ran from July 1903 to December 1906. Ladysmith developed as a residential area for the employees of a large coal mine, and, in 1904, it had a population of approximately 4000. The Ledger was published by the Ladysmith Publishing Company, which also issued the paper under two variant titles: the Daily Ledger (April to July, 1905) and the Ladysmith Ledger (September to December, 1906).

P-RICEFIVE^SWr J UPRJS1 NG IN LODZ WILLIAM HANNAY IS TWO THOUSAND SENT UP FOR TRIAL Charge Was Heard at Council Chambers Last ��������� * * r Evening by Justices Matheson and Allen, Sev^ eral Newr Witnesses Were Called { - Prosecution Was Represented by Mr. C Barker, Messrs. Young and Simpson Appearing For the Defence ��������� KILLED ������> WOUNDED on The hearing of the charge brought Witness by Abner Snowdcn Thomas against Win. Hannay that he hail unlawfully taken fron* him ('riiomas) the sum of $31 on May 13Mi last, took place "before. Justices of tlie I-teace Allan and Matheson last evening in the city - council chambers. Tha room was crowded with i ntt-o.es ted citizens. Messrs. F. McB. Young and Russell Simpson appeared for - the defence and Mr. Charles Barker for the prosecution. The charge having been read hy Mr. Allan, Mr. Young entered an objection against this hearing. He contended that the preliminary hearing had already taken place and on the face - of evidence brought up the accused had been discharged " by the Justices, ll, was now out of order for the magistrates ^p again hear the charge. After a case had been once dismissed by Justices of the Peace and the prosecution ' afterwards finds more evidence, the case can again be brought up at the assizes. The counsel therefore asked lhat, their Worships hi ml this prosecution over to make the charge at thc assizes, and lo decline to hear the charges that evening. Mr, Young said he was making, this application against tlie express wish of his client, V&o wished t'he case to come up without delay. Mr. Marker, for the prosecution, contended that as their Worships had already come to a decision on this point, deciding' to hear the charges, there was nothing for them to do but proceed. The court agreed with this and "decided to go on with the hearing. ; Mr. Barker called Thomas, who gave evidence as follows: .-...,"I*,went',to" the office as near ,as. I can remember between 9.30 and 10 o'clock on the morning of Mp.y 13th, payday. I called my number for my duebill and it was handed to me through the wicket. After I received it I returned t-o the office and ordered a ton of coal. I came but from.'tho. -'office'arid-I was pursuing my way going into town to pay my -Jlls. 1 was beckoned --hack by a man who was raising subscriptions for a widow.' I gave hi in 50 cents, and then he took my name. I then lost control of myself. My money amounted to $31.91. After .I had given thc subscription I had left $31 and balance which was taken off ine. I paid out 50 cents, and $31.11 was left in my pocket. Then when I came to myself I found 1 was being led iby Hannay. I would .sometimes come, to my senses and sonic limes I would lose them. When we arrived at Bicklc's I said: 'let us go in an:l get a bottle of Dr. Chase's linseed of turpentine to stop my cojigh.' i Then when T felt for my money to purchase medicine I found my money was gone. I notified Mr. Hannay that my money was misplaced. It, was gone. I notified him.. He seemed to be unconcerned about (jigA 'I said to I-Tannay, 'You know I have lost my money,' and I asked him lo.get- it and return it to me. I thought f c-oiiUI not have lost, if without him' knowing it." In ans- wer to further -miestions by Mr. Marker: "I have asked him'about it several times.' -He, said, he would sec if aiTybody 'had found it "and would, try and recover it. I conveiseil with him about it se.eral times; both before 1 He rhe Hie thought he had the money did not accuse any body else, only.man hc ever suspected of having taken it wasTjIaiiiiay. He had never accused Bicklc of taking tho money. He had asked Bicklc if he had found any money that he had pulled out of his- pocket. Asked him ,on the same day.

Emperor .Wtlriams absence at Kiel, the foreign alike says, will cause no delay in the negotiations inasmuch as he is daily informed of all the points and bis decisions nre promptly given. As the study of Premier Roiivier's answer progresses, Ihe fact .becomes evident, thai lie jias left many points op- ei for discussion and on which further negotiations ,ean continue. Tho greatest dilliculty now seems to Lv* in agreeing on whether (lermany an,I France shall seek to leach a separate agreement before meeting of the con- fi rence thus eliminating many matters from international action. Cler- rmiiiy apparently holds the view that it _ wo'.rid be an -act of discourtesy to the powers which have already agreed, to at-tend the conference if she arranged aiiv matters beforehand with France. OOici.i.! circles here continue 1o foll"..w the alTair with keen interest, riiif without anything like excitement, much less bellicose incliiia- '1ions. They watch closely the move 3 .eats of public opinion in France, and while it is recognized that 'the ] rench people at large have grown much less <h uivinislie toward fler- ii-any in the past few years, corrcs- ponging with the waning influence of tne nitionalisl clerical military com- b nation in French politics. .Some ���������anxiety still prmails in Merlin lest the leaders ol' the opposition to the Piench governnic'iil again succeed in inPaming the passions of the people and arouse astoiiu whieh thc repu- bl can Iabois would be unable to Wi I Iks I a nil. o ERIC!
