JACKL|NC MAY HAVE TROUBLE
 SECURING ORE
British Columbia Wants Steel Plant to Be Built in That
 Province.

VICTORIA, Sept. IA. - William Sloan, minister of mines, is watch ing with keen interest the develop ments across the border, which bid fair to result in the development of an iron and steel plant near Lake Washington, near Seattle. Ground for this assumption is taken by the recent announcement of Col. D. C.. Jackling, the well-known mining op- orator, who is heavily interested in many Alaskan properties, in which he stated that as a consequence or complete investigations carried out on the Pacific coast and in various sections of British Columbia, such program was altogether likely.
 It will doubtless appeal to British Columbians that the prospect of the ore of the province being shipped across the border is not by any means the character of development looked for by many who are earnest l ly anticipating real mining revival within the borders of the province itself There would appear to be urgent necessity for revival Of in terest along the various influential bodies throughout British Columbia, directed solely either to show to the American coterie believed to be back ing the venture mentioned financial ly, that the logical location for such plant is British Columbia, or to develop energy among Canadian or British capitalists to achieve the de- sired result and retain to the pro vince the full benefits of her natur- | al resources.

Mile. Virubova and Others Taken Away on Special Train to Sweden to
 Be Released.
SHE GIVES INTERVIEW
Tells of Monks Power Over Czar; Denies She Connected with the
 Anarchist Plots.

PETROGRAD, Sept. 1.-The first exiles among the adhercnts of the old imperial regime have been sent under strong escort to the Swed- ish frontier, where they will be released.
 Extraordinary precautions were taken to guard the exiles and ac- cess to the railroad station where they boarded a train was forbidden At the head of the party with Sister of Mercy was the famous Mademoiselle Virubova, for 12 years the bosom friends and confidante of the former empress, and who has been called ''the female Rasputin of the revolution" With her were the intriguer Manseevich Ma nuilov, and the Asiatic Badmayeff, to whom the former Emperor Mi cholas gave a diploma as doctor of Tibetan medicine" in recogni- tion of his success in curing all i'm aginable diseases of the courtiers with a certain cordial.
 On the eve of her departure Mile Viruboya was interviewed by The Associated Press in the presence of detective. She is a strikingly handsome, somewhat stout, black haired woman, resembling the por- traits of Catherine the Great. She limps and uses crutch as the re- suit of railroad accident. There is scar on her forehead which she asserted was inflicted by the guards at the fortress of St. Peter and St. Paul from which she was recently released.
 Fascinating but Not Clever.
 Mademoiselle Virubova, who is personally fascinating but appar- ently not a clever woman, gave striking outline of the last years of the court of Emperor Nicholas, declaring that the memoirs which she intends to write will startle the world.
 My life story is this" she said: "I am daughter of M. Taneyeff, a former secretary of the emperor.
