MAY CAUSE "A SPLIT.
Joseph Martin. Liberal Leader of
British Columbia, Resigns.

Vancouver. B. c., June 4.--Joseph
Martin, for four years head of the Lib
eral party in British Columbia, has re-
signed his leadership. His action
cansed a big political sensation here.
and it looks as if it would cause de-
cided split IN the liberal ranks.
Yesterday morning a meeting of the
executive OF the British Columbia Lib
eral association was held at Vancouver.
"Fighting Joe" Martin was present. A
demand had come from thirteen Liberal
associations throughout the province
for holding the convention, at which it
was planned to appoint new leader
for the party. Martin has opposed
the convention plan, and yesterday, to
avoid convention, he agreed to re-
sign, allowing the party to go leader
less to the next election, and then have
new leader chosen from the elected
members of the legislature. The exec
utive accepted Martins resignation,
and he returned to Victoria in high
fettle, having avoided the possibility OF
choosing a new leader.
loud complaint went up IRON the anti
Martin Liberals in Vancouver. They
threaten to compel the executive to
call new convention and allow the
latter gathering to accept the liberal
leadership. AS the matter stands Mar
tin will virtually lead all of the Liberal
party he wants to have anything to do
with, and the action he secured yester-
day will put the remainder without any
leader out of business. so far az the
coming election is concerned.
1t is regarded as practically certain
here that the proposed new Liberal
leader will be Mr.. Smith, of Nanaimo.
He is at the present time member of
the Ottawa house of Commons, and he
commands not only large liberal fol-
lowing in this province, but he is recog
nized as the labor leader of the West.
He was for many wears secretary of the
miners union at Nanaimo.

Seattle, jane 3.-Wiliam NJ. AL
berti, Of New York, who is terested
in miniog on Pennell creek, north of

us, or species of giant mammoth many
thousands of years extinct. He is COM
missioned to prepare the skeleton for

parts of the world. lies embedded in a
gravel bank on the Hanum river, a
tributary OF the Imnetchuck liver, not
far from Nome.
1t was discovered last year by some
miners and reported to Mr.. Albert.
While he was East during the winter
he reported the find to the Smithsonian
institution and received his commission
to have the skeleton shipped out, with
the view to putting the members to-
gether and exhibiting the whole at the
st. Louis fair.
When Mr. Alberti left the North last
fall the specimen was in perfect condi-
ton, with not a tusk or bone missing.
Since he has been in Seattle he has
been informed by persons who lett the
district after him that vandals have
dug out one of the tusks, which meas
nred eight feet in lnegth. and that the
skull has been broken in and some of
the teeth extracted.
While regretting this very much,
Mr.. Albert will nevertheless 90 to the
spot, and unless the spe linen has been
destroyed he will remove it and try to
secure from the persons taking the
parts their return.

HELD TO BE A POOL.
California Railroads Declared to Be
Violating Laws.

Los Angeles, June 3.-.]udge Olin
Wellborn, of the United States circuit
court, handed down decision in which
he practically finds that the railroad
companies having lines in Southern
California have been violating the rout-
ing order of the interstate commerce
commission, which WAS to have taken
effect June 20, 1902.
The decision is an overruling of the
demurrer OF the Southern Pacific and
Santa Fe railroad companies to the suit
filed against them some time ago by the
Consolidated Forwarding company and
the Southern California Fruit Ex-
change, alleging that the order of the
supreme court had been violated. An
appeal will probably be taken. Thirty
days time is allowed the companies to
make answer.
In his decision Judge Wellborn holds
that the shipper of fruit has the right
to choose his own route to Eastern
points, and that each must have equal
rights under the railroad rates, which,
however, must be constantly open for
the use of the public. The court is of
the opinion that there is in existence A
pool between the railroads and their
connecting lines and that some of the
shippers have been Disseminated
against to the advantage of others; that
the Judgment of the interstate com
merce commission, prior to the issuance
OF the order, was an adjudication OF
fact, the finding being conclusive, as
against the demurrer, and that the
routing rule. as established by the rail-
roads, was for the purpose OF operating
a pool.
