hiA . Pilot of the plane which carried the alleged $10.000 cargo of fur from Peterâ€" bell to Rouyn, B. A. Paget, commercial pllot for General Airways, Rouyn, told of meetinz Glick at Timmins, June 22. "Glick asked me to take him three miles north of Peterbell," declared the witness, "George Lortie, of the Quebec provincial police, was with me." "We left Timmins with Glick in a 7â€" "Did Glick have an export license on June 22?" ‘No, he did not." All royvalties are paid to North Bay or the deputy minister‘s office, Mr. Park explained, also stressing there was no open season on beaver this year. Mr. Miller did not Ccrossâ€"examine the witness. Examined by Mr. Common, explained that in order to from the province, it was fi sary to secure an export pc pay the government royalty from 5¢ to $5, herewith as from The Sudbury Star:â€" Game Supervisor G. M. Parks was the first witness called in the _ chargs against Glick that he did. on or about June 22, transport 444 beaver skins without first having obtained a permit or without paying royalty on the sams, from the district of Cochrane to Rouyn. At the request of Acting Crown Attorâ€" ney DeDiana, all witnesses, both for the crown and defence, were excluded from the courtroom. Glick, however, was duped into beâ€" lieving the plane had to land at Rouyn to refuel before proceeding to Montreal, and it was when the landing was mads at Rouyn that Slubâ€"Inspector Matte inâ€" spected the cargo. Finding it was fur and not gold, he communicated with Game Warden D. Gervais, who immeâ€" diately â€"seirzed the contraband fur and placed Glick under arrest. Some of the evidence is of particular interest here, and extracts arse given Evidence at the trial at Sudbury on Monday showed the unpremeditated find of furs was made at Rcoluyn, June 22, as a sevenâ€"passenger Bellanca plane sat down at the Rouyn air harbor, only to taxi into the waiting arms of the @uebec provincial police, who sought the stolen gold concentrates. Investiâ€" gation revealed 16 packages of the "myst:rious" cargo. But they all conâ€" tained fur, not gold. Had gent on Plane How the agent was placed aboard the plane was told by Subâ€"Inspector J. A. Matte, of the Abitibi division, Rouyn. who appeared as on» of the chief crown witnesses against Glick this morning, as he faced 14 charges of transporting and having raw fur pelts without the necessary permit from the Ontario Deâ€" partment of Game and Fisheries. The agent, George Lortie, made the trip. from Rouyn to Psterbel] aboard the plane disguised as a mechanic, and helped Glick and Pilot B. A. Paget load the furs into the freighter plane for a trip to Montreal. At the trial of J. I. Glick, Sudbury fur draler, convicted this week on charges of having illegal possession of raw fur pelts, mostly beaver, it was shown in dramatic way that the search for the $41,000 worth of gold concenâ€" trates stolen recently from the Dome Mine really led to the discovery of the illicit furs.

Glick asked if woe ccluldn‘t go right through to Montreal and I told him I didn‘t think I could." Constab‘e Lortie, of Rouyn, told of aczcompanying Glick from Rouyn to Timmins and how he acted as mechanic during the trip. j "Why did you stop at Rouyn?" ask>d Mr. DeDiana.

Mr. Common. "A game warden came down with Inspector of Detectives Maitte and seized the plane, putting Glick under arrest. "Some of the packages were opened in the plane and I saw that they conâ€" tained breaver," testified Paget. Reading from the company log book, the pilot showed an entry covering the trip from Timmins to Peterbell and freocm Peterbell to Rouyn. The pilot also pointed out on a map where they landed near in the tnwnchin passenger Bellanca. On the way over Glick told me to keep clear of the railâ€" way tracks." "How did you know where to land?" asked Mr. Common. "Glick pointed out the spot on the map. Glick just said that he was pickâ€" ing up a load of freight to be taken to Rouyn and then to Montreal." The pilot told of landing near Peterâ€" bell and taxiing down the river. ‘"We met a man in a disappearing prepellor boat. There was one man in the boaat whom Glick called Lacroix. The only other conversation was when Lacroix asked ‘Can you pay off the men?‘ Glick replied: ‘I can‘t this trip, but will be back‘." ‘ Cartons of freight were brought out of the tush nearby, claimed Pagot. I ‘"‘There were about 18 packages in a canvas bag, concealed behind a big rock. We then taxied up the river and picked up three other packages. These! were brought to the plane by We all helped to load it." Promised Good Time On the way back, Glick promised to| show him a good time in Montreal when they arrived that night, Pilot Pazet recalled. Glick also warned him to keep away from Timmins, he said. | "What happened at Rouyn?" asked Mr. Common. "A game wardeon came down with Inspector of Detectives| goin l Mr. MUler in crossâ€"rxamâ€" had some information and in my capacity as a conâ€" Noaortbhla nd In the valleys streams of red water, turbid with the tin sand from the | mires, flow northward to the sea. Tall |chimneyâ€"stacks trail their faint haze |of smoke across the sky. ' Adventuring Down a Mine , The descent of a Cornish mine is something of an adventure. Being wet â€"and often hotâ€"it is necessary to \ change to the skin beforse going down. The miner‘s dress consists of a flanâ€" nel ,shirt, trousers and coat of redâ€" stained canvas, heavy boots, and a hard hat which is something of a mixtur2 tbetween a tin helmet and an oldâ€" ;fashioned bowler. Nowadays most of i the men use small acetylene lamps, though a few of the older ones still proefer candles, which they fasten on to the front of their hats with a lump of | clay. Toward the ond of the shift a silence shicceeds the shattering roar of the drills. The holes are charged with glasting gelatin and the miners retire from the workings, the last man setâ€" ting light to the fuses as he goes. A br‘ef silence, followed by a thunderinz roar, with others coming in quick sucâ€" cession, show that the charges have done their work. As soon as the smoke has cleared the trammers return to the foot of the stope, where tons of loose rock, torn from the lode, now lies waiting transport.

Between Redruth and Camborne; and again at St. Just, eviâ€" dence of presentâ€"day mining appears. | (From Manchester Guardian) The visitor to Cornwall is apt to hurry past the mininâ€" arcas, yet even so ’he will hardly fail to recognize tha.t | the Duchy was an important ecentre of iindust-ry. Shortly after crossing the Rier Tamar by Gunnislake Bridge i there appears by the roadside a group of tall, gaunt buildings whose castellatâ€" ed form might seem to have been deâ€" [signed for the guiardianship of trmasure. Built of the local "moorstone" and roofed with Cornish slate, these desertâ€" ed mine engine houses form a veritâ€" ab‘> part of the granite countryside in which they stand, writes a correspondâ€" ent of the Manchester Guardian. "Did you tell anyone you were lookin:g for the Dome gold?" "I may have told the pilot." _ "Did you place ick under arrest 'at Rouyn?" "No, Mr. Gervais, the game warden, did that." "One package was opened in the plane, the others in the provincial poâ€" lice office," stated witness. "Do you know what happened to the skins?" ‘"They were checked, but 1 don‘t know what happened to them." Constable Lortie claimed Glick had been arrested at Rouyn for illegal posâ€" enpssion of furs. Subâ€"Inspector J. A. Matte, of the: district of Abitibi, said that they were looking for the stolen gold. "Do you get information on the flight of all planes?" asked Mr. Miller. ' Objected to Answering "Do I have to answer that?" ask?d, Mr. Matte. . | "Inadmissable," declared Magistrate !Coop.er. "I don‘t see what it has to do with the case." l "I think the public should know if our airways are under the supervision of police," countered Mr. Miller. _ "How long were the furs in your ofâ€" fice at Noranda?" asked Mr. Miller. "One night and on» day, before bzeing !Laken to Ville Marie." Leslie A.

They got nothing and. conâ€" sider their speculation a total loss. The speculation has no market value and never had. However, they received last wsek an assessment notice of $23,.217.50, which means that the government bills them $3,482 taxes for the $60,000 bet which didn‘t make good.

Of course the prospectâ€" ing business will be killed, but what does that matter! (From Northern Miner) The sagacity of the incom» tax psople at Ottawa is beyond praise. Notinz that claim staking has fallsn off to abciut half in Canada in the last year, and calculating that tax revenue from prospecting and exploration winnings may be slim, they are starting in to imâ€" pose taxes upon prospecting losses. In the ordinary run of things, prospecting losses are more numerous than prosâ€" pecting gains, and present a very ferâ€" tile field for the wily hand of the tax gatherer. We congratulate the income tax department at Ottawa; this idea of taxing losses can be spread over a lot of ground.
