In dismissing the case. Magistrate Atkinson said he was not deciding whether there had been "salting" or not, but. simply dis- missing the case because it had not been laid under the Criminal Code The full text of Magistrate Atkinson's decision is as follows:-- "In this case Victor Barber is charged in part with having committed a fraud- ulent act, to wit. by cause of conduct to deceive the public and the purchas- er or purchasers of securities of the Lois Lake Gold Mine as to the true value ot such securities, in that he did make delivery of a sample of ore con- taining Valuable minerals stated to have. come from said Lois Lake Gold Mine, which minerals. were known by the defendant not, to have come from said mine.
