Question:\u2014\u201cDid Gedeon Bernard know what you wanted to do with the poison?\u201d Answer:\u2014\u201cI told him two or three times.\u201d Question:\u2014\u201cDid you use the poison you obtained both times?\u201d Answer:\u2014\u201cNo, only once.The second time, I threw it away.If I had known that it would have caused such suffering, I would not have given it to him the first time.I thought he would die immediately after taking it.\u2019 Question:\u2014\u201cDid you remember the date that you asked Gedeon for the second dose of poison?\u201d Answer:\u2014\u201cYes, Gedeon came to my home at East Angus after I gave some to Ludger and I asked him, Gedeon, to send me more.\u201d Question:\u2014\u201cDo you remember having sent a letter containing one dollar to Gedeon and asking him to come and see you?\u201d Answer:\u2014\u201cIt was on that occasion he came.\u201d Question:\u2014\u201cWhy did you ask him to come?\u201d Answer:\u2014\u201cTo ask him for poison.\u201d Question:\u2014\u201cHow did you administer poison to him?\u201d Answer:\u2014\u201cI tried first to dissolve it in water but it would not melt.I then put some in his beverage, either tea or coffee, I cannot remember which.\u201d i Question:\u2014\u201cDid he pass any remark while drinking it?\u201d Answer:\u2014\u201cHe said, he didn\u2019t know if the biscuits were not good or if it ivas the coffee.\u2018It is salty,\u2019 he said.\u201d Question:\u2014\u201cWhy did you do this.Mrs.Chapdelaine?\u201d Answer:\u2014\u201cBecause my husband ill-treated me a long time and even beat me.I calculated that it was the best way to get rid of him without scandal.I thought of taking some myself but I did not have the courage.I suffered much at his hands.\u201d Question:\u2014\u201cWhy are you making this confession?\u201d Answer:\u2014\u201cBecause I regret what I did, I regretted it even from the moment I gave it to him.\u201d Question:\u2014\u201cAre you ready to sign and swear to this confession after having read it and found that it conforms with what you have said?\u201d Answer:\u2014\u201cYes, sir.\u201d Sworn before me at Montreal\tSigned, Beatrice Chapdelaine.this fourth day of July, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-two.Signed, L.P.Caisse, Justice of the Peace.Apart from Being Acting Prime!

the official proposals of the Government.This week the cabinet meeting is being held on Friday instead of today, as the Prime Minsiter desired to remain in Quebec to attend the funeral of his brother-in-law, W.D.Baillarge, former chief engineer of the City of Quebec.He cannot make his usual visit to Montreal until Wednesday, and as Thursday is a legal holiday, the meeting had to be

or merely further arrangements with the banks is unknown.HON.ROBERT WEIR CELEBRATES FIFTIETH BIRTHDAY Ottawa, Dec.6.\u2014 Hon.Robert Weir, Minister of Agriculture, yesterday celebrated his fiftieth

hundred Lacking Six Votes of Required Two-Thirds Majority in Division Yesterday, United States Anti-Prohibition Forces Plan to Refer Repeal of Liquor Law to Judiciary Committee for Immediate Action\u2014Vote Yesterday Was 272 to 144 in Favor of Repeal of Eighteenth Amendment.Washington, Dec.6.\u2014Congressional anti - prohibitionists, stung by defeat in the United States House of Representatives, today pinned their hopes for repeal at tfiis session on the Senate, where early consideration was assured.Drys, jubilant over victory, narrow though it was, rallied for another stand, while others inclined to a less drastic repeal proposal than voted on yesterday sought to play a hand in shaping such legislation.As soon as the House vote of 272 to 144\u2014six less than the required two thirds\u2014was made known in the Senate, Democrats there grasped the lead of Speaker John N.Garner in attempting to carry out their party\u2019s pledge for outright effacement of prohibition with ratification by state conventions.With Senate consideration of this problem duo to begin on Monday in the judiciary committee, House leaders turned to another Democratic promise\u2014immediate legalization of beer.Garner was hope- ful of action by Christmas, the same time as a vote on repeal in the Senate was looked for.The House action was taken by many legislators as the forerunner of a special session next spring after the inauguration of President-| elect F.D.Roosevelt, but Demo-j cratic leaders on both sides nevertheless drove ahead with renewed vigor to make this unnecessary by i carrying out the campaign pledges 1 at the short session.Senator Robinson, the Demo-| cratic leader, speedily announced 1 that the House vote would not alter j plans for prompt consideration of j repeal legislation at his end of the i Capitol.\u201cWe hope to refer all resolutions ! and bills dealing with prohibition | to the judiciary committee for as j prompt action as possible,\u201d he said.Chairman Norris, of the judiciary committee, followed this up with a I statement that his group would expedite the legislation.He said procedure probably would be considered at the first meeting of the committee next Monday.A programme of proposed winter w'ork involving an expenditure of $567,380, drawn up by City Engineer Thomas Tremblay, was submitted to the City Council for consideration last evening.This programme, providing wwk in practically every section of the city, was made at the request of Aidermen E.H.Fortier and J.C Morin, who have been close allies during the past few weeks in advocating the'payment of direct relief to the city\u2019s unemployed.The Fortier-Morin combination voiced strong objection to the municipal kitchen and the present programme of unemployment relief.City Engineer Tremblay\u2019s proposals provide for an expenditure of $34.1,980 on sewer work; $20,000 for a retaining wall on the left side of the St.Francis river, adjoining the Lansdowne Market; $25,400 for the widening of the Brompton road near the city limits with the construction of a retaining wall; $265,000 for a filtration plant, a matter which has now long been under consideration and ofttimes discussed; and $60,000 for a new transmission line between the city\u2019s expensive power project at Westbury and the city proper.According to Mr.Tremblay\u2019s figuring, the proposed sewer work would be divided according to wards as follows: East Ward, $96,405; West Ward, $64,403; South Ward, $315, and North Ward $38,560, When the City Engineer\u2019s report was tabled at last evening\u2019s brief Council meeting there was no discussion or comment.Each aldermar, took home a copy of the proposal for study and consideration.-# The reading by the City Clerk of the instructions to be followed in the distribution of direct relief and administration of direct relief, as outlined by Ivan E.Vallee, Deputy Minister of the Provincial Department of Public Works and director of Unemployment Relief at Quebec, was listened to with keen interest by the aldermen, as well as by the small gathering of citizens present at the meeting.In his official announcement, Mr.Vallee says: \u201cFirst of all direct relief or the aid to the needy is simply another word for Christian charity, which has been practiced in our province since early history.Its sole object is to furnish the necessities of life in sufficient quantity to prevent undue distress.\u201cThe general definition given above being understood, it is evident that the question of the political allegiance or of the religious belief of a needy person cannot be raised, must not under any consideration be raised, and the undersigned wishes to formally notify, all interested parties that any organization carrying on distribution of relief functioning on a patronage basis will deprive the guilty parties of all government contribution.\u201cIn order that there may be no confusion between the recent laws for unemployment and the agreement for direct relyief, I must say that the direct relief must not be used for the payment of expenses incurred in the purchase of material, transportation, for administration and supervision, or for salaries of foremen or expert tradesmen not in need.All these expenses must be borne by the municipality itself.\u201cIn the case where said foremen and experts are really needy, they may be given a weekly allowance sufficient to furnish them with the necessities of life, said allowance being raised on the number of their dependents.\u201cIn return for the relief supplied, a work test can be exacted, except in the case of persons totally incapable of working.But there is absolutely no question of paying salaries, or of using direct relief for the payment of old debts, arrears in taxes, etc.\u201cOnly municipalities unable, through their sole resources, to meet the expenses of helping their unemployed should benefit by ihe grant.\u201cThe only pensions entitled to direct relief are those who arc entirely without resources, and as such relief is only for the necessities of life, the distribution in cash \u2022will only be allowed on written authority from the^ undersigned, because such distribution in cash would prevent effective eoNttrol and lead to all sorts of abuses.\u201cA request for grants must be made by a resolution of the municipal council and .must also _ include a certified list of destitute persons, giving names of the heads of families, the number of tboir dependents and the names of isolated cases.\u201cOn receipt of said list, an investigation will tage place,_ and, if the municipality\u2019s information conforms to facts, and if relief is justified, the request will then be taken in consideration and an amount set.No municipality must exceed the amount granted for direct relief, unless an authorization to that effect has been previously obtained.\u201cFurthermore, it is expressly understood that the municipality must contribute one-third of the total amount agreed to.the balance being paid by both governments, each paying its equal share.\u201cIt is not our intention to discourage private charity, so we insist on the fact that the municipality must pay its share in cash.In no case must the contributions in kind given through private charity be made part of the municipality\u2019s share.However.such private contributions in kind may help to relieve a few needy people in the meantime, and reduce proportionately the rate-payers\u2019 burden.\u201cConsequently, as soon as the municipality receives notice that (Continued on page 2) ashington, Dec.6.-A blanketing | manufacturers\u2019 sales tax covering virtually everything but food, and an additional eleven per cent, pay cut for federal employees was laid before a waiting United States Congress today by President Herbert Hoover.In his final message, which

Ministry preoared a preliminary report to the Emperor, today and ordered an investigation.Meanwhile the cause of the accident was not ascertained.The Sawarabi was a 820-ton craft with a speed of 31 1-2 knots.She was completed in 1923.No ex-olanation was offered in any competent source as to the strange turn-turtle action of the destroyer, pending additional reports.husband as out of work, and the payments had been augmented on the unemployment relief basis.The husband, it transpired, had been permanently employed over a long period of years and was still employed, so that the mother\u2019s pension will suffer deductions until the overpayment is satisfied.Jail: A place where they keep the victims of ufijust discrimination.Witness at Seabury Investigation, Said to Have Visited Winston-Salem Attorney, T; our mind the Royal Commission was remiss in not being outspoken.One had to read between the line- to find the verdict which they feared might cause a furore anv ng the politicians.We can ignore the politicians when of their pet football.The human element in a Tariff Board must be considered, as well as an understanding of commerce and trade in all its diversified branches.Men | we must deprive them 0j qUicjt] sound judgment in business commodities,: as well as in fiscal reactions, should be chosen to constitute the Board, and there are mighty few men | with these attributes who would he available fori government appointment.Without actual business! experience an appointee would be an encumbrance; - .\u201e Winston-Salem, N.C., Dec fi \u2014 : appearing for the first time were Russell T.Sherwood, missing wit-In a recent column, Colonel Clark ia;S?accorded their meed of praise Pess in the Seabury investigation iloj.-e «m.c Sir Robert Borden was : programme, dainty refreshments VValker, an accountant He chim -I Prime Minister.\tj were served by Mrs.Adams, who that Sherwood spent several davs \u201cThe late Dr.Michael Clarke,\" i lvas assisted by her pupils in her here last week on private business I he writes, \u201cone of the most court-; '0SP|tab.e duties.\t, in connection with the investigation ecus and entertaining public\tI ^eac^101?3\tal1(^ Rft for Canada froE1.where he will sail for Europe Missing for months, Sherwood QUEBEC NEED FEAR NO CRITICISM OF ITS EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM.The elders of the teaching profession, the men of «ide experience and understanding, pointedly and a liability, refuse to approve the recurrent proposals for placing in the elementary schools the classes and the subjects which are often called the \u201chigher education.\u201d Hon.Edgar Rhodes.Minister of Finance, points out that inflation of Canadian currency will be Where there are large schools, consolidated, disastrous.It is a grave danger, but it does schools, witli half-a-dozen or more grades or forms, ; emphasize the need for deflation of government each one in charge of a competent teacher, and (expenditures.But deflation must not affect those with a headmaster as executive, the proposals might energies of the government which are profitable and be considered were it not for the general belief that constructive.Recently a large mercantile house in' even in educational matters »e should not presently Sherbrooke decided to save by curtailing its adver-, add to the expenses incurred.\t! tising, and within a year it was out of business.AYe!
