Miners" President Appoints Com- mittees for Purpose. A Wilkesbarre, Pa.., des'patCh says: The operators are still able to fill the places of these that desert, or are forced to quit. Most of the companies have exhausted their form of company employes and are now using non~union men .more freely. It was their policy not to enlist the services of strangers until it was absolutely necessary. Nonâ€"union men from the large citâ€" ies are still coming in, most of them being brought here under cover of darkness. The sheriff called on President Mitchell on Friday to enlist his aid to prevent any further overt acts by idle men and boys. Mr. Mitchell asâ€" sured the sheriff that he would do all in his power to have the men keep the peace, and that strikers would be asked to help guard comâ€" pany property from damage. All the local unions, at the ne- quest of President Mitchell, appointâ€" ed "guard" committees, whose duty it will be, during the strike, to pre- vent persons from destroying proâ€" perty, and more especially to keep children away from the collieries. The strike situation in the Lykens Valley region is becoming more seriâ€" ous. There have been many atâ€" tempts at arson. Hundreds of yards of fencing surrounding collieries have been burned by boys and young men. ___._+__ CONSOLS HIGHER. Britain Congratulated on Econo- mic Stamina. A London despatch says: to the second reading of the Loan Bill in the House of Lords on Friâ€" day, Lord Goschen (Liberal and a former Chancellor of the Exchequer) announced that he desired to say a few words on the financial position of the country. Consols, which were now paying only 2-.1. per cent, stood Prior at 97. Before the convention of 1888, 3 per cent. consols stood at 101. If they had been converted then they would have been worth on- ly 82, so that now the stock was really 15 points higher, and that af- ter a costly war and the borrowing of $159,000,000, the country might well congratulate itself on a situaâ€" tion which showed such an economic stamina, he said. The Premier, Lord Salisbury, said such words, coming from such a high authority, were very gratifying, and would be widely read. â€"â€"¢ POPULATION INCREASED. 65,000 Immigrants for First Half of the Year. An Ottawa despatch says: The immigration returns prepared by the department here shows that there will be at the end of June 65.000 arrivals for the year as compared with 49,149 last year. For the eleven months ending May 31 last the arrivals are as follows: British 14,200 as against 11,810 for the twelve months last: year. From the continent of Europe there were 18,248 for the eleven months as against 19,352 for the twelve months of 1901. From the United States there were 21,377 for the 11 months, as against 17,987 for the 12 months of the preâ€" vious fiscal year. The arrivals for May were over 11,000. In this connection it may be point- ed out that the entries for free lands in Manitoba and the Northwest Terâ€" ritories were over 10,000, as comâ€" pared with 8,167 for the 12 months in 1001. The returns also for 1901 showed a, large increase over 1900. changed, but inferior stuff was fi‘onilFAST The Cunard, Allan and Beaver Lines Unite. A Li\erpool dcspatcli says zâ€"The report is fully confirmed that the Cunard Steamship Company has commcnced the formation of a Brit- fish shibl‘ing combination. The Ilea- \01' Line, of which Sir Alfred L. Jones if: the llt‘.l(l, will join forces with the Cunard Line. Sir Alfred is the most energetic organizer of Britâ€" ish stripping. lie is the head of the lzldcrâ€"llcuipstcr Line, and the initia- tor of the recent line of steamcis to the llritish West Indies. The Allan Line wi.l support the new combinaâ€" tion, which meets with the warm upâ€" proval of the Colonial Oflice. The OlflClt/S of the scheme are twofold, firstly to meet the Morgan combinaâ€" tion on American ground, and secâ€" ondly, to arrange a new and fast sctwice to Canada, which will be largely subsioted by both the Britâ€" ish and (‘anadian Governments, but trotting will be done regarding the subsidy question until the meeting of the colonial Premiers on the ocâ€" casion of the coronation. The leadâ€" es of the new scheme say they re- cognim that the tight for freight will be sexere. The British combina- tion will not be hampered so much by Mr. Morgan’s control of the Ainâ€" erican railways as by the fact that the principal freight steamers are in the hands of its opponents. It is dcnied that Mr. Morgan offered the Cunards $11,000,000 for the comâ€" [‘uny. The offers did not approach that figure. A Hamburg correspondent teleâ€" graphs that shipping men there be- lieve that the Cunard Company will come to a working arrangement with the Union and Castle Lincs in order to secure a monopoly of the African trade, and that the rtsult will he the establishment of new lines from the United States to Africa. ...._ -+_ THEIR OCCUPATION GONE. Boer Agents Will Ask Iritain to Send Them Home. Washington dcspatch says ‘â€" Gen. Samuel Pearson, the Boer re- presentatiie in this country, who made the protest about the British shipments of mulcs from New Or- leans, says that he intends to call at the British Embassy and ask for transportation to South Africa, "Under the peace terms," said Gen. Pearson. "Great Britain agrees to send the burghch back home, whereâ€" evcr they may be. I have been ruinâ€" ed by the war, and I have not a six- pence to my name." Mr. Charles D. Pierce, who for the past few years has been Consulâ€" General at New York for the Orange Free State, and who has had charge of the circulation of pro-Boer literaâ€" ture, when asked if the Boer refugees in this country would return to South Africa, replied : "They will all return and take back their pro-- perty. One of the best known of them, W. 1). Snyman, is now at the Union Square Hotel." Concerning his own status, Mr. Pierce said he supposed his office was a ,thing of the past. “At any ratefl/he added, “I shall not make any claim to the title.” __.__‘..___.. FATHER SHOT BY CHILD. Nine-Year-Old Boy Kills Him With a Rifle. An Ottawa despatch says zâ€"News comes from the Eastern Townships that a farmer from Whitton, in the Lake Megantic region, named H. A. Matheson, was killed on Monday by his nineâ€"yearâ€"old son, with a Win- chester rifle. The report says that Mailieson ill-treated his children, and that the boy in selfâ€"defence dcL liberater aimed at his father with the rifle, at a distance of ten feet, and that the bullet went through the heart, causing immediate death. The coroner’s jury, after hearing the evidence, and considering the circumâ€" stances, returned a verdict to the effect that the deceased, Hugh Mathe- son, had come to his death by gunâ€" shot wounds inflicted by his nineâ€" ycar-old son, in selfâ€"defence. _______.+.._â€"â€".. THROUGH A CULVERT. Freight Train Wrecked on the C. P. R. Near Calgary. A Calgary, N. W. ’l‘., despatch Says: A serious accident occurred on the C. P. R. five miles east of here at halfâ€"past (3 Wednesday morn- ing. Owing to the recent heavy rains, a culvert had been undermin< ed, and a freight train dashed into the culvert, which gave way, preâ€" cipitating the engine into the stream. Engineer Chas. Dorm, brakeman Dunn and car inspector J. Corsey were thrown under the Hen- glue, and are pinned there in eight feet of water. The train was tcleâ€" scoped, and six freight cars piled on top of the engine. The wreCking crews from east and west went to work removing the debris and trafâ€" fic was resumed before midnight. The passenger train was fortunately late, or a lunch more frightful loss of life would have occurred. .___¢_.~___ FOR SOLDIERS’ GRAVES. C c ntribution of I High Commissioner in London.

A Durban, Natal, dcspatch says: Mr. Schallzburger, formerly Acting President. of the Transvaal, visited a large Boer camp here on Saturday. He made a. speech, informing his hearers of the tcrms of peace, and urging contcuilerl submission to llriâ€" tish rule. The Boers, he said, should forgive and forget, and with the British form one great brother- hood, working together for the bette- fit of South Africa. The Boer leadâ€" ers, he said, in conclusion, had con- cluded that it would be criminal to further continue the struggle. the speech the Women wch without. restraint Afterward the Dutch I'nL sident spoke, tendering grateful thanks for the kindly trcatmcnt the Boers had rccoived. Le said the news of peace was the best that could have been received. His speech was punctuated with sobs. As Mr. Schalkburger was leaving to visit other camps, he was besiegâ€" ed by the Boers, who shook hands with him and plied him with ques- tions regarding relatives. lle prom- ised to return Monday. Thousands of throats voiced their thanks and burst into a song of thanksgiving as Mr. Schalkburger drove away. Sevâ€" eral of his relatives are in the camp here. ______+__.___ TORONTO PAVILION. Totally Destroyed by Fire on Fri- ..lay Morning. A Toronto despatch says: About 2.30 on Friday morning, fire broke out in the pavilion in the Allan (Horticultural) (iardcns, and the flames spread so rapidly that all efâ€" forts to saVc the building from deâ€" struction were unavailing. The banquet of the visiting Board of Trade delegates had been held ’in the structure earlier in the evening, and it is supposed that the fire originat- ed in the culinary department. A few moments after the fire was disâ€" covered the entire structure was in .fluis. The heat from the burning building was terrific, and the flames shot up fifty feet in the air, the old woodwork with its inflammable decâ€" orations inside burning like tinder. The firemen endeavored to confine the flames to the main building, but the effort was unsuccessful, and at 3 o’clock the palm building was doomâ€" ed. The Jarvis Street Collegiate Institute, immediately in the rear of the building, was at one time in danger, but the firemen turned sev- eral streams on to it, and it was saved. The loss will reach from 75,000 to $100,000. The palm house was built for the magnificent collection of palms presented to the city by the late Str David Macpher- son, which was valued at the time of presentation at $40,000, and has since been added to. F4.“ WERE FOES, NOW FRIENDS. Rejoicing Among the Boer Prison- ers in the Bermudas. A Hamilton, Bermuda, despatch says: The prisoners here were deâ€" lighted, and received the peace news with great enthusiasm, shouting, singing and hurrahing. Some of them rushed wildly about, embraced every English soldier they met and said: “Yesterday we were foes, to- day we are friends.” Drinks were served out to the Boers on Hawâ€" kin’s Island, and the rejoicing there continued until a. late hour. The Boers on Tucker Island also received the news with great joy. When the fact of peace was communiâ€" cated to them the prisoners went fairly wild, shouting and singing volkslied and hymns until one o'clock in the morning. ' At reveille the band of the “arâ€" wick Regiment, moved up to the Tucker Island enclosure and played “Auld Lang Syne," “Old Hun- dred,” and “God Save the King,” and in all of these airs the prisonâ€" ers joined most heartily. I The peace news was received by the Boer prisoners on the other isâ€" 1ands here with similar manifesta- tions of joy. ___.__+_._ RUINS OF ST. PIERRE. Will Remain the Cemetery of the Victims. A Paris despaich says: Dr. Lidin, after visiting St. Pierre in an ofli- cial capacity, reports that it would be useless to remove the bodies buried in the ruins of the city, since the isolation of the site where once the city stood prevents danger to the public health. He thinks that the \illage of Carbet can be rcin- habith without risk of infection. He adds that the prolonged work of recovering the remains would be dangerous to the health of all. MUD VOLCAN 0.
