Oet. 22. Sensational evidence was given yesterday in the Fernie Lumber Co. suits for damage against the Crows Nest Southern Kailway, through fire originating on th right of way of the railway. Inspector Martin for the Government testified that royalty had been collected on 900,000 feet of timber only, whereas accounts of the company produced showed more than double this cut.

GoverrPnent officials say that the books produced in court were not those inspected by him at the mill. The mill accountant said he had never seen the inspector examine the books. He knew nothing of the books required by the statutory enactment. An enquiry is probable into the whole matter. The court has adjourned and will examine ground at Fernie to-day.

Maclaren Pulled the First Trigger Were the Strikers on Public Property? Right of Private Detectives to Act and Carry Firearms? Buckingham, Oct. 22. The jury returned an open verdict Saturday afternoon after the inquest on the death of Detective Warner of Montreal, who was mortally wounded in the battle between the local lumbermen strikers and the special constables, aided by the brothers Maclaren. The evidence taken yesterday went heavily against the Maclaren side of the case. One witness stated that Alexander Maclaren had fired the first shot, which opened the fight.

First, in the case of a navigable river, is there any public property on the banks such as the foreshore of the sea border? On the bank of the Lievre River the police stopped the strikers. Second, can proprietors employ armed men as watchmen even though they are sworn in as private constables? Third, is it not the duty of persons who suspect trouble to notify the provincial or Dominion authorities, as it the case in England, where there is no such individual as the private armed detective authorities? These are some of the points which will he threshed out and will probably form a precedent in Canadian law. RE. ONTARIO BANK. Justice Mabee Declines to Grant a Winding-Up Order.

Justice Mabee concurred In this view and adjourned the motion sine die, giving either party the privilege of reviving it on 24 hours' notice. FREEDOM FOR RUSS PEASANTS.
