Some interesting cal ions may
be deduced from these figures.
During the year there were 109,500
shifts worked, equal to 300 years
for one man’s work. © At the above
ratio, if a man worked in the mine
for 300 years he would meet with
eleven accidents, or one every
twenty-seven years and three
months. If he stopped work a
week before his accident was due
and took a week or two off at the
Hot Springs or on the coast, he
might escape mishap for another
period of twenty-seven years and
three months. The figures at least
show that mining is not so hazar-
dous as is generally supposed, prob-
ably no more so than farming, where
men get kicked by mules or tangled
up in threshing machines.

Scott’s Secret Agreement Finally Dis-

posed of.

SUPREME COURT DECIDES

Former Mayor's Sale of $50,000 Debentures

Held Invalid on Appeal of the Purchasers—
A Long Fight Against the Dlegal Oon-
tract. :

The issue of debentures which”

caused a bitter fight against Mayor

Scott’s administration has’ at last

been declared invalid by the supreme
court of Ontario, and thus the citi-

zens win the contest which has been

carried on in the courts for sever:l-
years. The news was received in

the city this morning through a tele-

gram addressed to J. L. G. Abbott,

the city solicitor, from McCarthy,

Osler, Hoskin & Creelman, the bar-
ters in Toronto whom he had ap-
pointed to take charge of the case

for the city.

Under Mayor Scott’s administra-
tion two by-laws were passed for
the issue of $50,o00 debentures.
Mr. Scott went to Toronto ‘at “the
city’s expense and, without adver-
tising as the law. reauires, sold
them’ to the Trust & Guarantee
company of Toronto at a certain |
price, with a secret agreement
pels afterwards became notorious
A. This: ag
constituted the debentiires a ‘first
i mortgage prior to’ all” other issues
and gave the purchasers a practical
veto on any further i issues When

the-facts:be ‘public,
held an indignation meeting to pro-
test against the contract and, after
the Scott party had‘ been defeated
at the next election, the new coun-
cil refused to deliver the debentures.
The city had the by-law quashed by
order of the court in this province,
and passed a new one, under which
the debentures were advertised for
sale in the open ‘market and were
sold to the Bank of British North
America at a -much higher price
than that provided under the Scott
contract.

Proceedings were then begun in
the Ontario courts, the Trust &
Guarantee company suing the city
for di Fe for the livery
of the debentures, The decision-
was given in favor of the city and
the Trust & Guarantee company ap-
pealed to ‘the Ontario supreme
court. “This appeal has now been
decided in favor of the city and the
