Begins to Evict Strikers, Local Praitlent of U.M. W. Arrest- ed on Charge of Intimidation. Ottawa, July 20. -The report of the Beard of kernelRation cud. Investiga- tion, to which was d. (erred the dispute between the Nova Seotia Steel Ceal Company and the members of the kcal' anion of the United Mine Work- ers' Union of America at Sydney Minese was made public by the Minis- ter of Labor tu-day. The maim ques- tion at issue WA4 the same as the issue underlying the strike at Glace Bay, namely, the reeognition of the interne - as OlipOeett to the Provineiel, union. The eiejorityof tee board, viz., Judge Ohipmen. chairmen, and Judge elcGillivray„ the company's representa- tive on the hoard, find in favor vi the eompany'e contention thae there should be no official recognition of the interne - time union, whose headquarters and heed officials are in a foreign country, and whose influence and authority in Canada constitute a serious menace to industrial peace ane stability in this country. De the main their report is in accord with the report of the board which reported last spring on the issue in dispute between the Dominion Goal Company and the U. el. W., and is a significant pronouncement in favor of having Canadian labor interests subject only to the ceetrol of Canadian labor organizations, A minorite report eeesented by Mr. Daniel Mebousease the eepresentative of the U. M. W. on the beard, dissents from the majority view, and urges that since the members of the international union compose about ninety-five per cent. of the employees of the Coal Omit- pany as compared with only five per cent, members of the Provincial Work. men's Assockition, and since the U. M W. is a joint organization of Canadian and United States workmen, it would be in the interests of industriel peace eo give this strong central orenumiztition a recognized status and authority to speak for the miners in the company's em ploy. On the general question of recog- nition of the union the boned says: "The growing sentiment in Me coun- ry. Is strongly in favor: of Managing our industrial nee commercial interests with. net being subjece to the dictation or eon • troI of our neighbors across the line. and new would seem tcebe an •ouportene time for a movement to be made for the establishment of a labor union for Can- ada alone,which shall be incorporated on the lines 'best calculated to create harmony and pence. and the prevention of strikes, so suicidal and detrimental te• both employer. and employees, and the Province of Nova Scotia, as well, "In the meantime the two societies now -warring with each other should get together and endeavor to work out the problems before them .in a spirit eif loyalty to the country in which they eive and are earning their daily bread."

WERE EASY. How Two Lone Girls Held Up Auto Party. Looks Like a Joke But They Got the Money. New York, July 20. -According to a spec:ial despatch from Denver, Clark M. Babbitt, of Buffalo; N. Y., who is taking part in the Glidden automobile tour, tells how he was held up and robbed by two girl bandits. With him were Richard Radley, a lawyer, of Peoria, Ile, A. Y. Bertholomew'driver, and le L. leupel, meehanician. Here is Mr. Babbitt's story in his owe words'as quoted in the spp- chit despatch: Our ear left Sterling alma 8 o'clock on Saturday morning, awl. when we had driven about thirty miles across the prairie we encountered two young women on horseback. They were some distance away when we first noticed them ane we supposed they were a couple of the wild west cowgirls ive had often read about. The girls kept galloping in our direction and as we were proceeding slowly it was not long before they were whiting hailing dis- tance. They waved to us first, and tak- ing it for a friendly salutation of the. road, we all waved back. Some few werds of greeting were exchanged, when one of the girls called out, 'Hold ou there a minute, I want to tell you some- thing.' "'Better stop,' I told Bartholomew, and he came to a halt. Then while one girl kept us covered with her revolver the other rode up beside the machine and held out her hand. I handed over my money, $03, and Bartholomew pro- duced his watchseind pocketbook con- taining $100. Without waiting for any- thing more the girls wheeled and rode away. "Beth girls were young, wore wide - brimmed bats and brown khaki suits. They rode astride and were dandy rid- ers. eThe hold-up occurred. at about 11 o'clock in the morning. There was no way to get any one to chase the girls, and all ere could do was to ride on to Denver." TOO MUCH. Woman Shoots Husband Who Insist- ed on Running Graphaphoue.

The famous aviator is find- ing hero worship much more trying to endure than the strain of navigating the air. Remarkable scenes were again wit- nessed at Dover this morning, when X. Bleriot returned there to attend a civie reception in his honor. The Frenchman was mobbed by the enormous crowds and the police had to come to his protection so eager were the enthusiasts to great him at close quarters. A similar ovation awaited the aviator in London,. his compatriots having ga- thered, at Victoria station in huge num- bers, and M. Bloriot must have narrow- ly escaped suffocation froni‘ their em- braces. With the help of tete police he finally succeeded in getting away mid reached his hotdl. where he was ,pre- sented with the cheque 'at a luncheon party. • "Bleriot fever" seems to have seized a large part of the populace of London. Those unable to see the flyer himself have been besieging the store where the compact little monoplane es installed in a department among other traveling requisites, the machine being so 'small, It looks like a large toy raeheretlian the -practical flyer which enabled its daring manipulator to carry' out his epochal feat. Numerous honors and medals are awaiting M. Bleriot on this side of the channel, the principal prize being a gold eup offered by Capt. Wyndham for the first flight across the English channel. It will be presented to the Frenchman at the Aeroplane Club dinner, Aug. 9th. Aeronautical experts here regard M. Bleriot's feat as a vindication for the monoplane type of machine over the bi- plane, The Frenchman's machine carries a greater weight in proportion to its plane surface than any other type, which is considered a great advantage.

The defection of the Labor party and the Radicals is not likely to be serious, and the general effect of. having a larg- er naval programme will be helpful in the attempt to carry the budget through the Lords. The four new battleships, which will complete the quota of eight, 'ill outclass the original Dreadnought, since- their armament will include ten 13 -inch guns in place of 12 -inch, and their displacement will exceed. 25,000 tons. They will oleo cost cqnsiderably more, for coestruction and armament. They will increase the radius of gun fire and the concentration of • engine power required for maximum speed, and, es- tablish Britain's supremacy in sea power so coMpletely that the eoloniale dele- gates to the Imperial Naval Conference may clamor for the privilege of con- tributing to tha, cost of construction; yet they will beThighly destructive war- ships for the Admiralty, since they will knock out the Dreadnoughts' and send them prematurely to the scrap heap as obsolete floating batteries. The Orders for these four more ships will follow the week's pageant in the lower Thames, and there 'is a chorus of congratulation from the press over the convincing proof that the mastery of the sea is retained. • - - • -..

John' Lambert, aged. eight. Annie Lambert, aged five, Samuel Lambert, aged three. Atherley had 'been living with the wo- rmy Lambert for six years. He is him- self a married man separated from his wife. The Woman and three children were apparently all murdered in their tine sleep beedvirtohomg a rarz,ewas Wfound in Atherley has been out of work for some months, but ie generally said to. be hard working and steady. Nine weeks ago the woman left Mherley and wort to reside in Robinson's yere, quadrangle off the main street, In which there are three or four two -room terse' ments. A fortnight ago Atherley followed up the woman, and the • eeighboes . say that he talked her round again, At any rate, the couple, with the three eldIeren, occupied one house, and beyond MA. niOnAt tiffs nothing out of the ordinary occurred. The discovery was mule a few min- utes after ten o'clock. A man named Marriott saw the face of his neighbor, Samuel Atherley, ghastly white, but all streaked with blood, peering from out of a broken window. while from a gash across his throat, blood was pouring on to his already saturated clothing. He presented a horrible picture, but Mar- riott cried to him to come down and open the door, which was locked. Ath- erley staggered downstairs and obeyed. Ife fell swooning into the arms of Mar- riott, but still had sufficient life to in- dicate that' an even more terrible condi- tier of things existed inside the cottage. Marriott left the man and rushed up- stairs. The sight which met his eyes was one to thrill the strongest nerves. Lying about the room were four corpses. A wo- man her head almost severed from the teak, lay on the bed. In. other parts of the little room, similarly mutilated, were three little children. The youngest, which bad been it pretty baby of three years, secured to have received. the creelest treatment of them all, for the knife missed through its tender neck. The place had the aspect of a slaugh- ter house. Everything was splashed. or saturated with blood. So awful was the scene that when Marriott emerged flow the house he broke down complete- ly, and sobbed like a hysterical woman. In the meantime an alarm had been given, and as the news spread like wild- fire along the street, people flocked in hundreds to the scene. .Atherley thefiebseein err almost uncoil- seious condition, but- there Was still lids, and to him wisely the police turned their ettention. It was very obvious that the four unfortunate creatures pp - stairs were beyond. all earthly aid. A neighbor named Ryan declares Alt Atherley told -her of his s intentions. Aeherley, she said, came to her and asked her about a strange man and his woman. Mrs. Ryan vowed. there had beer. no strange man about, but Ather- ley was obdurate. "I shall do her in," he said, with an oath, and turned. upon his heel. Mee. Ryan apparently did not pay much beca to the threats; at all events she did not give any dem, treating the matter as an idle boast.. Lambert and Atherley were. both na- tives of Arnold, but the latter had i been abroad n service with the 7th We rwieks. Jealousy is undoubtedly the cause of the crime. sr • • BUILDING WRECKED.

Alleged Bank Forger Arrested Try- ing to Pan Cheque. His "Accepted" Stamp Didn't Go at That Bank. Cashed Cheques in Europe and the United States. Vancouver, B. C., July 20, -John Al- fred Graham Anderson, former ledger - keeper at the branch of the Bank of Montreal at the earner of Portland and queen street. Toronto, was ar- rested at the Hotel Vanceuver, in this city, this morning. He attempted, it -is said, to pass a -fraudulently mark- ed eel -until° at the hotel here and was reported to the bank, He is being held pending instructions from the East. Andere,en!s recent movements have puzzled the Toronto po- lice. Only two days ago they said that they had not tho slightest' intimation as to where the fugitive was. The last they heard of him was' in Gananoque, Ont., two weeks ago, rind after that he eluded them. After they had located him at that place he apparently managed to get back through Toronto, on his Way to the coast, without detection. All the police departments from coast to coast, and, in fact, in Europe had been notified, but he remained' un- detected 'until the finish at the, coast hotel. Following are some of the places where Anderson cashed cheques: Banque de Paris, Paris, France -$250 Branch of same bank at Chicago., 200 Branch of same bank at Los An, geles. . . ... 300 Canadian Bankof dommerce, San Francisco .' .......750 ,T.

Montreal ... 15 Besides' these there have been 'num- erous complaints against Anderson. The method employed by Anderson was to mark cheques "accepted." He would then go to a 'dealer, a bank, or most any place, and realize op the paper. Detective Murray leaves to -day for Vancouver to bring the man back, and he will be tried in Toronto first. The Vancouver corresOndent tele- graphs that Anderson arrived in, Van- eouver on Wednesday, registered at the Hotel Vancouver under the name of John Anderson, Toronto. Running short of funds last night he attempted to induce Manager Derouville to cash a cheque' for $1,900. The cheque bore across its face the rubber stamped im- print "accepted." Derouville refused to pay. After saying he had cashed several at Seattle, and volunteering to have the paper vouched for at the local branch bank, Anderson left. Manager Derouville 'notified the man- agement of the bank that the young man was sitting in the porch of the hotel. Anderson was arrested short- ly afterwards. At the police station he admitted his identity. The charges on which Anderson will be tried here will be for 'passing cheques with forged acceptances on local business houses. MANAGER .JAILED.
