become confined and inadequate.The construction is of tapestry and Ascot brick combined, plain hut solid, with a frontage of 42 feet, and in every respect is admirably adapted to its purpose.Granite steps lead from the sidewalk to the wide plate grass door, protected by brass rods and with massive, shining brass handles.The first view of the rotunda is very pleasing and further examination shows that all the arrangements have been carried out to facilitate business, and also with a view to the convenience and comfort of the customers and the working staff.Floods of light are admitted by large plate glass windows placed in pairs on three sides, with deep sills of polished oak, and all the woodwork, counters, desks, etc., are of the same material, substantial and suitable to a marked degree.The walls are finished by a new process in pale green, separated from the darker green dado py an oak rail.The high panelled ceiling shows a still fainter tint, and the cork carpet, which covprs the hardwood floor and renders every footstep noiseless, carries out the color scheme and is particularly restful to the eye.On the right is the manager's room, railed off from the rotunda, and fitted up with rug, large table and the usual appliances, and on the right again, but at the rear, is a large vault floored and lined with steel, where are the safety deposit boxes.In the roomy basement is another vault for storage, together with boiler room, furnace room, etc.The hot water heating and the electric lighting are of the most modern and up-to-date description, and the system of ventilation has been carefullv planned.Throughout the entire building there is a sense of the fitness of things which does credit to the contractors, Messrs.Loomis & Dak-in.On the second floor are four tight, airy offices, to which access Is gained by a separate entrance, enclosed vestibule and easy staircase, of polished birch, lighted, heated and furnished with lavatories, etc.The manager of the Upper Town branch is Mr.N.Fergus Dinning, with a competent staff of assistants.TO-MOR.RO w Saturday and Sunday His Majesty\u2019s Theatre Present AMERICA\u2019S SWEETHEART MARY PICKFORD In a

chief of the General Staff, of a char-' acter more precise and practical while the conduct of the actual operation.-:! | will remain in the hands o the Conor mandteMn-chief.\" Ooncerning the extent of losses from submarines, M.Gambon b-aicl .\u2019There is no occasion to be pessimistic over the submarine menace, which is now receiving attention from the .Americans.It is foreseen that Ameri can energy and precision will again aid effectively in that and in the settlement of the question of feeding and of freight.It is not doubted that the end of the submarines is in sight.The effect, of the means of destruction 4 26 ts .Erie \t\t26 $4\t26% 82\t.Granby \t\t\t 106\t.G.M.0\t\t105\t105 37 % .Inter.Paper\t37H\t37% Set*.Inap.Cop.\t56\t65% 2774 .Marine Com.\t27\t26% 79A4.Marine Pfd.\t78 H\t78(4 89 *4 .Mexican Pet.\t8914\t89 48 .Maxwell .\t\t 93%.Reading \t\t92 >4\t92% 87 .Studebaker .\t86\t86 78% .St.Paul\t\t78\t78*4 941%.Sou.Parific .\t93%\t93% 114ts.Utah Cop.\t113%\t114(4 116\t.U.S.Ind.Alco.115\t\t115% 136H.Un.Pacific .\t135 %\t135% 1151*.U.S.Steel .\t114 hi\t114% 48(4 \u2022 .Westinghouse\t47 %\t47% GRAEN.\t\t 269(4 May Wheat .\t275\t275 220 (4 \u2022 .Julv \t\t224\t223 iseti .Sept\t\t190\t187% 160\t.May Com .\t151\t151 143\t.July \t\t144 4s\t143% 135 \u2019-4 .Sept\t\t136\t135% COTTON.\t\t 20.08.Mav \t\t20.10\t19.81 19.97.July \t\t.19.97\t19.02 19.31.Oct.\t\t\t.19.25\t19.88 19.35.Dec.\t\t\t.19.30\t18.91 MYSTIC FARM SOLD FOR $3,000.MYSTIC, May 3\u2014(Special) \u2014 Mr.Geo.Henry Miller, has sold his farm to Mr.Geo.Proctor, for $4,000.Mr.Proctor took possession last week.SALE OF BOLTON GLEN FARM BOLTON GLEN, May 3\u2014Mr.Goddard has sold his farm here, known as the McLaughlin farm, to Mr.Henry Calvey, of Dunham, for $2,000.FARM SOLD FOR $5,000.KEITH, May 3.\u2014(Special) \u2014 Mr.E.K.McLeod has sold his farm, situated in Lingwick.on the Bury line, to Mr.D.Matheson, of Megan-tic.The price paid was $5,000.GERMAN LIARS WRITE BUSILY FOR MOSLEMS MONTREAL.Y esterday\u2019s (Bid) Opening.11 a.sn.MONTREAL MARKET ^ MONTREAL, May 3.\u2014Butter \u2014 Fresh made finest creamery.44c to 4414c per lb.; storage butter, 42c to 43l*c per lb.Eggs\u2014Strictly new laid, per dozen.38c.to 40c.Dressed hogs\u2014Fresh killed abattoir, per 100 lbs.S23.50 to $24.Shortening\u20141914c per lb.Dressed poultry\u2014Turkeys, per lb., 32c to 38c; chickens, 28c to 30c ; ducks, 20c to 22c.Potatoes\u201480 lb.bags Green Mountain.$4: Quebec, $3.75.Mill feed, per ton\u2014Bran.$43; middlings.$50; shorts, $40; pure mouille, 856 to $57.Flour\u2014Winter wheat, $90 per cent patents, $12.30 to $12.60; in bags.$6 to $6.15.Spring wheat, first patents, $13.30; second patents, $12.80; strong bakers, in bags.$12.60.New maple syrup, gallon tins, $1.25 to $1.65.Sugar, 14c to 16c per lb.Beans, Canadian handpicked, $8.26; 3-lb.pickers, $7.75;\t5-lb.pickers.$7.50.38%.\t.Brazil \t\t 49% .\t.Brompton .\t 60 .\t.Cement \t 60\t60 92 .\t.Cement Pfd.92\t92 28% .\t\u2022 Can.Car.28\t28 \t.Car.Pfd.69%\t69% \t.Can.S.S.Com.\t 87%.\t.Can.S.S.Pfd.87\t86% .\t.Can.Gen.Elec.108\t108 79 .\t.Civic Inv.79 %\t79 28 .\t.Con.Mining .27\t27 60%.\t.Dom.Iron .60%\t59% 114\t.\t.Detroit .114\t114 126 .\t.Dom.Bridge .\t \t.Laurentide .\t \t.Maple Leaf .\t 69 -\t.Penmans' .\t 28% .\tQuebec Rv.28\t28 114\t.\t.Riordon \t\t 94 .\t.Scotia \t\t 59% .\t.Steel Canada .59\t58 ^2 16% .\t.Spanish River.\t 121% .\t\u2022 Shawinigan .\t 80 .\t.Toronto Rv.82\t82 73 V*.\t.Wayagamack .\t 35\t.Tram Power\t\t 97 .\t.War Loan 1925.97%\t97% 96\t.War Loan 1931.96\t96 95 % .\t.War Loan 1937.95%, Fully paid and flat.\t95% E.T.LIVE STOCK MONTREAL LIVE STOCK MARKET CATTLE PRICES ARE STEADY.Montreal, May 3.The offenngs at the Canadian Pacific cattle yards yesterday were 300 cattle, 170 hogs and 2200 calves.The trade was very good and prices as a rule w ere steady at last week\u2019s figures.Calves are still coming in in great quantities, but it does n .t seem to cheapen them, as the market (Continued on page 9.)

Can\u2019t Fool the Arabs The other Governments of the Entente are fairly steeped in outrages; the mere titles of some of the pamphlets prove this more than sufficient-.ly: \u201cThe Atrocities of the English;\u201d \u201cRussian Cruelties;\u201d \u201cFrench Lies;\u201d \u201cThe Barbarity of the French in Tunis and Alberfa;\u201d \u201cFrench Intrigues against Islam;\u201d and the texts are to match.On the other hand, all those i which deal with Germany have noth-J ing but praise for the prosperity and ! the greatness of Germany under Wilhelm II.Germany has foreseen everything.but forgotten to take account ®f one thing\u2014the intelligence of tho Arab!
