British Columbia Notes.

Last weeks Boundary mines ore
year over the 800. 900 figure.
Despite the advances made by new
er mining camps in British Columbia,
Rossland produced 43 per cent of all
the metals mined in southern Koote-
nay and southern Yale in 1903.
The lie Roi company, operating the
big mine at Rossland, has been giving
attention lately to the problem of wa
ter concentration to cut out the excess
of silica which has been raising the
cost of smelling. Three furnaces are
in operation at the Northport smelter.
From official statements by the man.
agement of the Spitzee mine at Ross
land it is demonstrated that the prop
erty is in an exceedingly satisfactory
condition.
II. G.. PembertOn, business manager
for the Montreal & Boston Consoli-
dated, is arranging for resumption of
work at the company's plant. He re-
ports the deal for consolidation prac-
tica!ly completed, and that as rapidly
as possible a great smelling industry
will be developed. Two furnaces will
be put in commission as soon as stores
of ore and fuel can be assembled.
Just what the lie Roi company pur-
poses doing in the immediate future
is a puzzle to Rosslanders. Develop
ments expected ere this have not ma
terialized, the officials have not taken
the public into their confidence and
interest runs high as to the probable
immediate outcome of the present sit
uation. The smelter has four furnaces
in full blast, and the mine is shipping
$50 tons daily, but beyond this little
is known. The crew at the mine has
been further reduced and now num-
bers only 1875 men. Many rumors are
afoat, but nothing definite can be Sc
cured

TRADE REPORT.

R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review
of Trade says
Seasonable weather has restored
normal conditions in many branches
of retail trade, but the improvement
has not yet extended to wholesale
jObbing or manufacturing departments
except in special lines. 1t is difficult
to find evidences of increased activity
in any of the leading industries, and
there is more idle machinery. Traffic
conditions are little unchanged, rail
way earnings in the first week falling
rs per cent behind last year, and the
late opening of lake navigation was
further retarded by strike. While
many features of the business situa-
ton make poor comparisons with last
year, it is worthy of note that few
presidential years have made a better
exhibit.
Failures in the United States were
236.
