D. McArthur Is Ready to Erect Mill With Capacity of 150,000 Feet. Start Will be Made on Right-of-Way as Soon as Necessary Bylaw Is Approved. The second special meeting of the city council, called to deal with th^ McArthur sawmill proposition, was held on Friday evening, when the bylaw was again put through the necessary stages and will be submitted to the ratepayers on Monday, August 9th. Alderman Patterson justified his action in taking exception to the special meeting held on Wednesday evening upon the ground that the re. quired notice had not been given of the meeting, and that exception might later be taken to it. He had no objection to offer to the submission of a bylaw to the ratepayers. Mayor Taylor informed the members of the council that since their meeting on Wednesday evening a further communication had been received from J. D. McArthur & Company. In this it was stated Mr. Me. Arthur was prepared to, commence t;ork upon the railway spur as soon as the bylaw is submitted to the people, and thatlthe mill he proposed to erect would have a cutting capacity of 150,000 board measure feet in ten hours. On the consideration of the bylaw Alderman Patterson called attention to the failure to provide for the requirement on the part of J. D. McArthur to leave a satisfactory cross, ing of the roadway leading to the Fraser river. If this roadway were crossed in the vicinity of First avenue it would mean a fill of eight feet, and provision for a crossing should be made. Alderman Guest informed the council he had been over the right-of-way as surveyed by F P. Burden and that the. crossing would come at the top""of the hill, and not in the vicinity of First avenue, the spur cuttng in to the railway track quite a distance west of the railway bridge and following up the west slope of the slough to the top of the hill. There was a provision in the bylaw for the granting of a right-of-way across the intersection of First avenue, but as this did not appear to be necessary it was deleted. The proposal that work should commence within five months from the date of final passage of the bylaw, and that a mill with a capacity of at least 50,000 daily capacity should be erected within seventeen months, was quite acceptable to Alderman Patterson. On motion of Alderman Moffat, seconded by Alderman Opie, the bylaw was given it.s three readings, and on motion of Alderman Opie, seconded by Alderman Griffith, it was decided to submit it to the ratepayers on Monday, August 9th. The vote will be taken at the city hall and the poll will remain open from 8 o'clock in the morning until 8 o'clock in the evening.

GEN. ANDREWS SECURES BRITISH AGREEMENT TO DISCOURAGE RUM-RUNNING London, July 28.—Although it is stated no details will be given out for the present with respect to the agreement which has been arrived at between General Andrews and the British government officials covering shipments of liquor to the United States, there is said to be good warrant for the statement that General Andrews has been successful to a very large extent in securing government co-oneration to prevent the export of liquors, the ultimate destination of which would be the United States. General Andrews is the head of prohibition enforcement in the United States, and if he has succeeded in securing the British government's co-operation in shutting off British liquor exports he will have materiallv lessened the cost of nfohibition enforcement and increased its effectiveness.
