representatives of the New Eng land Fish Company, the most powerful halibut fishing corporation in the country are nov negotiating for ter minals in Seattle. Manager Hagar, of the Vancouver office. and A1r. Free man. q director of the company, re- siding at Boston. have approached some Of the prominent Seattle fishing and cold storage companies in regard to having their product handled here. says Seattle dispatch.
 These men state that the recent op- position Of the Canadian authorities may drive them out of Vancouver. This company has for years operated boats under both American and Cana dian registry. The fish caught by the American boats vas shipped from Vancouver in bond to Boston and other Eastern United States clties. The fish caught by the Canadion boats 8ss used to supply ths Canadian trade. For the past year Canadianb haze ob. jected to this procedure and the Can adian authorities have been asked to refuse admission to the fish caught by the American boats. unless the re ! gular duty was paid.
 The New England Fish Company officers state that fl they are compelled

to pay duty it will drive them from Vancouver. The present plan would be to have their boats dock at one of the Seattle fishing docks and have some Seattle company handle the pro- duct for them. Later they would pro- bably erect their own terminal pro- perty.
 So far the efforts of the New England company to have their product handled here has failed, as all the Seattle com panies report that they have no room or equipment for other than their own catches. The New England company's officers also intimated that they might establish curing establishment at ketchikan or some other Alaska port and ship their product in boxes to Seattle via regular liners to be sent East from here. This plan would not necessitate any plant here.

FOXY CANADA
Canadian Fish Monopoly Would Like 10 Freeze Out All
 Competition

Certain powerful influence aspiring to obtain dominating position in the < halibut industry of the North Pacific Coast are responsible for the sudden violent agitation now going on in British Columbia, and which has re- suited in attacks on American fishery interest. \ combination of enterprs- ing individuals has been formed, Can adian and English capital enlisted and a vigorous campaign inaugurated hav- ing for its object the elimination Of all competition. First of all these American concerns are to be disnused of. The New England Fish Co.,, the oldest and largest of the American companies, has been denied the privi- lege of lisposing of any part of its product in Canada, even though it may be willing to pay duty thereon. The Hecate Straits question has been revived and an effort will be made to close these grounds to Amer ican fishermen. The Dominion tisher- ieS cruisers are increasing their activ- ities and once seized there is little likelihood of an American vessel being released no matter what the testimony of it's true location at time of seizure may have been-as was exemplifed in the Francis Cutting case.
 The program so carefully prepared is being followed faithfully and seems to be working well so far. If success ful in driving out opposition the con- spirators calculate to have everything their own way and obtain complete control of these fine halibut fields. They will establish headquarters at Prince Rupert and ship via the Grand Trunk railway as soon as completed
 The next move will be to get the duty removed on Canadian halibut shipped into the United States. put ting them in very superior position as compared with any American con- pany.
 There are some exceedingly promi- nent men in this movement and they are able to enlist the power of the Canadian and Provincial governments in their behalf.
 They are adroitIy molding public sentiment and building up strong antagonistic feeling toward Amer- cans. which will greatly accelerate their efforts.
 In event Of their driving out the NEW Eb bzldDO I lcD OD.. N nICu ls tut first and most important feature of their campaign. the loss to Vancouver in annual disbursements of that con- pany will be approximately million dollars and some Puget Sound city will he just that much better off. Tie New England Fish Co. is not going to quit business as is evident by the large amount of money bsing eXpend- ed on their Ketchikan plant. On the other hand, this new Canadian con cern. in which several Grand Trunk officials are said to be largely inter- ested, will not benefit Vancouver by one single dollar. If the business men of Vancouver are wise they will do some tai thinking in an endeavor to figure out just what the removal of the New England plant will mean to them. Pacific Fisherman.

Denver Colo, May lS- A page in the last report of the United States Geological Survey, on the Mineral Re- sources of the United State $, contains l the surprising statement that uring the year 1790 the lives of 3,l25 men were sacrictied in the coal mines of the United States, while an additional l }. 316 men were more or less seriously injured, many of them perhaps result ing fatally. This was an average of If men killed and 23 injured for each day the mines were worked.
 West Virginia holds the inevitable record for greatest death rate, being 12 345 per thousand men employed. Then follow New Mexico with 11.25; Alabama with 20; Colorado with 6. 96; Washington with 606; and Mon- tana with 4.39 The average for the whole country was 4.s6 deaths per 1, 000'men employed. In the Western states, where natural conditions have always been considered the safest, the average death rate is much higher than in the Eastern states.
 One-third of the deaths result from explosions of coal dust and gas, the precise causes of which are not defin- itely known, and can hardly be pre- vented until after further investiga- tion are made. \ little more than one third result from falls of roof and coal. which, with the exercise for greater care, could perhaps be largely prevented. The remainder result from blownout shots and miscellaneous causes.
 h the early months of 1908 Conrgess appropriated sl5o o00.0o with which to carry on experiments and investi- gatoE for the purpose of ascertaining the causes of, and means to prevent, such terrible loss of life, but at best this can result only in lessening the number and extent of the fatalities.
 It has been proposed by the Ameri-
 
 can Mining Congress, which held its session at Pittsburg, Pa, last Decem- ber. where the subject of coal mine accidents was fully discussed, that in order to mitigate the disastrous re- suits, and to tighten the burden which sometimes falls heavily upon the dis tressed family of the dead or injured miner. that small tax be levied uEon all coal produced. to create fund which could be equitably disbursed among those distressed by the acci- dent A tax of one half cent per ton, it is thought, would be of great relief to the families of dependents of the unfortunate victims.
 Congressman ]. G. McHenry of Pennsglyanla. who was delegate to the Mining Congress, is the author of q resolution recommending that the legfslatures of the coal mining states pass appropriate laws putting this plan into effect. It has bzen endorsed by many of the large coal operators of Pennsylvania, Ohio, lIlionis and West Virginia; by John Mitchell, ex- president and by Thos. L.. Lewis, president of the United Mine Worker.
