TEN MILLIONS IN
-FOUR HOURS SALE
Prince Rupert Townsite Changes
Hands Rapidly and Corners Re-
Gently but Wilderness, Reach
High Figures.

CHICAGO, June 2.-Ten million
dollars in four days was the record
made in the Prince Rupert townsite
sale according to dispatches today to
officials of the Canadian government
and Grand Trunk Pacific which COM
bined in the gigantic project of making
a complete new city, paved, piped,
parked and sidewalked before popula-
ton came. AS soon as the townsite
sale is ended the tents and shacks of
the construction crew will be displaced
by brick blocks and handsome houses.
During the first two days the sales
netted 100000 and $50 lots were sold
at prices from 25 to so per cent above
ing $4,000 for one lot On one side Of
the townsite engineers have been fin
ishing streets and drainage, on the
other are new wharves with shipping,
with the waters of the bay beyond as
a safe outlet to the Pacific. On a hill
are offices of the harbor and railway
officials. Two banks and two general
stores have been the first outposts of
the coming city.
Thwo thousand acres or only frac-
square miles owned by the company,
constitute the toWnsite. Those three
square miles are on the wafer front
Three sides are bordered widely by
company land, which is reserved for
the future development of the port,
and is not to be opened for sale. Out
side speculation is thus shut off in
advance. This made-to- order city. Gre
ated by enormous labor and expendi-
lures, is on a site chosen Cor its I'M
usual harbor which IS counted upon
by the Dominion to make Prince Ru-
pert rival Vancouver and Seattle as
shipping point at the terminus of the
Grand Trunk Pacific.
There has been none of the romance
of the disorder of a new town in
Prince Rupert; the border bar-room
and dance house were not in the big
for a model city. No liquor is
sold. The company's authority ex-
tends far beyond the limits, and this
rule is rigid. A man with thirst
must carry it 10 Port Essington, on the
Skeena, some hours away by boat and
wide open.

ST. LOUIS, June 2.-Claude Ros-
man, who has been playing first sack
for the Detroit Tigers for the last two
wears. is now a member Of the 81.
Louis Americans. The Detroit CLUB
recently asked waivers on the first
baseman and the ST. Louis manage
ment put in a claim for him. 1t is said
Rossman has not been on the best OF
terms with Jennings since the world
championship series of 1907, when ne
got in bad with the manager of the
Tigers by giving out an interview In
which he said a first baseman did not
need a head. Rossman contended that
all he needed was ability to eaten
thrown balls and stand at the plate and
WALTON out clouts that send runs over
the plate" Rossnan's throwing IN
recent games has been very poor.

taxed to their limit. There are more
than enough horses now at the track
to conduct successful meeting. and
in fact no more animals are wanted.
Ten Stakes for Meeting.
The ten stakes to be decided during
the meeting filed far better than ex-
pected, there being on an average of
forty-five nominations for each stake
The principal events to be decided at
the meeting are the Victoria Derby and
the Dominion day handicap each with
guaranteed value of $1,000. /. H
Wheatcroft, the British Columbia mil
lionaire, who has the largest stable at
the track, is the most liberal nominal
tor to the stakes. Barney Schneider,
who has a large string here in charge
of T. E Crist, has also been liberal in
his nominations.
The quality of the thoroughbreds
that will compete during the meeting
is probably as good as that at The
Meadows track last summer. Fern L.
the grand little mare which established
new mile record at Seattle last sum-
mer, is on the grounds and will be
seen in action frequently.
Barney Oldfield, the horse that es-
tablished a record at The Meadows,
last season, when he Won five straight
races, is here, fit and ready to race.
Fantastic, Edwin T. Fryer, Roalto,
French Cook, Aemaceo and Redondo,
all cracks that have never raced out
side of the larger tracks, are here for
the first time. There are dozens of
ather good horses here, proving con-
clusively, that the meeting will not be
lacking in horses of class.
Good Jockeys On Ground.
There are over 25 jockeys here who
are but waiting for the bugle call on
opening day, many of whom with rep
utations as riders as wide as the con-
tinent. Among the number is Jockey
Carroll Shilling, who was the star of
the past Santa Anita meeting, and

CHICAGO, June 2.-Arthur Holman
center fielder of the Chicago Nationals,
sometimes called Circus Solly'' on
account of his prediction for doing
the seemingly impossible on the ball
field is now playing the greatest game
of his career. Hoffman is hitting harder
than ever before and Is leading the
Cubs in batting with a percentage OF
$40. He is also playing a star fielding
game. 1t was his sensational playing
that materially aided the Cubs in
winning the three recent games from
Brooklyn. Holman is versatile
player. The infield and the outfield
are alike to him. No matter where the
call comes from he can fill any posi-
ton with credit. For several years
he had been utility man for the Cubs
and it was not until this season that
Manager Chance gave him regular
berth.

Sheedy's hobby, strangely enough, is

London in 1876 and returned to it's

FISHING BILL
COULDN'T Be ENFORCED

Although the Senate has passed a
bill that is intended to prevent shore
fishing by japanese and Chinese, the
measure would be practically ineffee-
tive even should it become a law. By
organizing corporation under the laws
of the Territory of Hawaii the alien
fishermen could continue with their
work without being subjected to inter
ference by the operation of law such
as is included in the provisions of
Coelho s bill
A corporation formed of aliens would
possess all the rights and privileges of
citizen, and could not be Disseminated
against in any manner Its agents
would enjoy the same rights and in this
way the embarrassments from such dis
criminatory measures as Coelho IS can be
easily avoided.
g A law of this kind would be prae-
tically without effect said a leading
attorney yesterday, in discussing the
legal aspect of the Coelho bill. f'While
it is aimed at individuals, it can be
circumvented with the greatest ease by
the fishermen affected forming a cor
poration. A Hawaiian corporation is a
citizen of the United States as far as
the law is concerned and can do about
everything citizen can do except vote

fault which caused the transport Logan
to be run on the coral reef last Satur-
day night. Captain Sanders, the pilot,
and Captain Stinson, skipper of the
Logan, gave their testimony informally
to the examining board, and this was
taken down by stenographer. The
report of the examiners will be made
to Marston Campbell today. It is I'M

favorable to the men in charge of the
big transport at the time she went
ashore, but this information has not
been confirmed
Commander Moses and the other
members of the board would say moth
ing yesterday until their report had
first been turned over to Superintend-
emit Campbell. One theory which has
been advanced is to the effect that the
steering gear of the Logan refused to
work at the crucial moment, and anoth-
er is that the man at the wheel turned
the wheel to port when the order had
been to starboard. The Board of Elk
