FOR CONFEREACE Mine Owners Give President Mitchell Litile En- couragement. o ——— PHILADELPHIA, March 22 —Answers have been received by President Mitchell from some of the presidents of the anthracite coal carrying railroads, to the letter sent from Scranton, under date of March 19, by himself and the presidents of the three United Mine Workers dis- tricts, asking them to meet the United Mine Workers' officlals in & conference prior to April 1, so that a strike of the anthracite miners may be avoided. President Mitchell "declines to state what the character of the replles so far received is, but if they are of the same tenor as the reply of one of the presidents he cannot feel much encouraged at his efforts to bring about a conference with the operators. In the reply of the anthracite president referred to President Mitchell is advised that the company he represents reiterates what has been stated in former commun!- catlons, that the company cannot and will not recognize those not in its service, but ihat it is willing and ready at all times to hear those In its actual employ upon any grievance that they may have. A dispatch from Scranton says: “President Mitchell when seen to-day appeared to be dejected and refused to make any statement for publication. The direct question was asked: ‘Have any an- swers been received from the operators? The miners’ leader hesitated several mo- ments before he answered. He finally re- plied: ‘We have received letters from sev- eral of the operators in response to the communications we sent them, but fur- ther than that I have nothing to say.’ " Semse—e— COTTON AND CHURCH DESTROYED BY FIRE Blaze in a Mississippi City Causes a Loss of One Hundred Thou- sand Dollars.

In Many Aristocrztic Households in England Will the Former Los Angeles Man’s Sad De- mise Be Mourned. — Special Dispatch to The Call. NANAIMO, B. C., March 22.—Arthur Bullock, formerly interested in a bank in Los Angeles, who was found dead on his knees beside his bed in his room in the Victoria Crescent here several days ago, was one of the ploneers of British Colum- bla and had attained his sixty-fifth year. | He was quietly burled here to-day. Arthur Bullock was 4 member of a well- known and wealthy family of Sydenham, London, and in the course of his wander- ings had amassed no fewer than four for- | tunes, one of them a very large one. His passion for social enjoyment helped him to go through them all and die a compara- | tively poor man. He came to this prov- |inee thirty vears ago and went into the | trading business at New Westminster, on | the Fraser River. Here he did very well, | selling his interest in' the business for a |large sum. He then went to Vletoria | and there made a fortune. From his first appearance in the province he was noted as a lavish entertainer, a man who would glve a dance, a card party or a symposium 1 0f choice spirits on the slightest provoce- | tlonjand spend money recklessly to make his guests happy. From Victoria he came | {5, Yanaimo and opened the first really | big business nouse then .n existence nortd | of Victoria in the dry goods line. He made | money “hand over fist,” as the saying is, {and at the end of a few years sold ou’ | and revisited his aristocratic relatives in England, spending there a year or two. { _He went Into the banking business in Los Angeles and lived there in princely | style, entertaining like a lord. He had a | beautiful place and his soclal functions | were famed throughout that part of the | State. From Los Angeles he went to Mexico on learning thai there was a good | opening in the silver mining industry in that country. This venture also prospered s. Everything he touched | seemed to turn to gold, though his friends knew well that behind all the seeming | good fortune there was a brain of raie | shrewdness, which, on matters of busi- ness, was seldom deceived. Atier carrying the Mexican venture to a successful issue he returned to the north | and plunged heavily In real estate specu- | lation. It was here that the tide of his | fortune turned and up to the time of his | death he had not recovered from several indiscreet “buys” into which he had been led. He was the holder of an_enormous | amount of real estate in North Vancouver City and this, with an unlucky invest- ment here brought him Into shoal water. Bullock was never married, but, like a good many other old bachelors, he pos- Sessed charming manners that won the favor of the fair sex. He was well bred and of more than ordinary accomplish- | ments and reading and he had been all over the world. One of Bullock's sisters, Lady Gooch. was presented the last drawing room held by the late Queen Victoria. All his broth- ers are famed in the commercial and financial world of the metropolis of ‘he British empire and in more than one aris- tocratic household his deadh will be mourned. A dozen of his old friends hers | followed’ the humble coffin to its resting place in the graveyard. ATIrORNEY ACQUIRES AN OPIUM “JOINT” Attaches the Place to Satisfy a $20 Judgment Against a Chinese Client. SAN JOSE, March 22.—James J.

Suit was brought and in Justice Rosenthal's court he obtained Judsmest against Leon Fat to-day. A writ of at- tachment was placed in Constable Haley's hands, and all ‘he could find to levy on was the opium joint. This was swooped | down upon. The place, which has becmgatmnlzed by e gorgeously many whites, was found to fitted up. There were couches, soft pil- lows, expensive rugs and mattings and some handsome and costly furniture. A half dozen complete outfits for smoking opium—pipes, trays, lamps, needles, pills, | etc.—were levied upon. Smith has locked | up the place, but as a strict watch is now kept on Chinatown and times are dull there it is believed the attorney will be obliged to keep the outfit. s e Sl PERILS ENCOUNTERED BY NOME PROSPECTORS Men Carried to Sea on an Ice Floe Are Blown Back to Land by a Gale.
