LONDON, Oct.12.\u2014-Addressing a war-aims meeting at Liverpool last night former Premier Asquith referred to recent declarations by German statesmen and writers, and said that his previously expressed skepticism regarding the Reichstag\u2019s peace resolutions was justified by the event, for the German parties had been squab-ling ever since with infinite acrimony concerning its orthodox interpretation, and confusion had become worse confounded with the publication of the Chancellor\u2019s reply to the Papal note.Doubtless, said Mr.Asquith, in both Germany and Austria there was (Associated Press Despatch) \u201cThe British steam roller goes uphill very slowly, but it is now going downhill, and battles are following each other more and more rapidly,\u201d said Major-General Maurice, Director of Operations, at the Bhitish War Office yesterday.The truth of this assertion was driven home less than 24 hours after it was made, by the beginning this morning of another British attack in Flanders.Only three days had elapsed since the last attack, made on Tuesday.Tuesday\u2019s push was launched after a four-day pause, the last previous drive having been car- ried out the preceding Thursday.Previously, intervals of a week or more had elapsed between the British attaca*.Good progress was reported early by Field Marshal Haig along the six-mile front northeast of Ypres on which today\u2019s assault is being delivered.Apparently the objective is the remainder of the ridge commanding the Flanders plain, over the dominant points of which the British have already passed and are driving downward.Another remarkable fact in connection with the present series of drives is that each is now apparently being made regardless of weather conditions.BEEN FORMED AT OTTAWA Decision Reached Last Evenin g After Months of Negotiations.Nine Liberals Entei Cabinet.Portfolios Have Not Yet Been Settled.EAST ANGUS GIRL LOSES LIFE IN FIRE a widespread and genuine desire for | Miss Robidoux Overcome By naar*o nnn m thp KPir»hsTflcr irsph .1\tw Smoke When Attempting to Escape By Window.peace, and in the Reichstag itself, slender as were its powers and divided its counsels, there were indications of a growing spirit of revolt against the government methods.\u201cBut,\u201d continued Mr.Asquith, the dominant fact with which it has EAST ANGUS, Oct.12.\u2014(Special) ¦Miss Robidoux lost her life in a fire to deal has neither German public- wh;ch broke out about two o\u2019clock this G™ Go™™ \u201ct ; j that Government mean business?Is H.Thernen and in which are situated its desire for peace sincere?Depend the bakery and dwelling occupied by upon it, the world will never find the way to peace through a morass of equivocations and ambiguities.Plain Mr.Lan,y and a tenement occupied by Mr.Louis Robidoux and his cousin, the unfortunate victim of the fire.When the outbreak was discovered, Â.I BOYD AT SWEETSBURG OTTAWA, Oct.12.\u2014After several Hon.William Pugsley, New Bruns- months of negotiation between Sir wick ; Hon.Rodolphe Lemieux, Kr- Robert Borden and the leaders of the | nest Lapointe and Hon.Sydney Fish- War Liberals, a Union Government 1er, Quebec; Hon.Geo.P.Graham.F.was formed last night.While there F.Pardee, Archie McCoig, Duncan are a majority of Conservatives in the Ross and Hon.Charles Murphy, On- new Cabinet it is understood that the *ar\u2018° > Dr.Molloy, Manitoba ; Hon.new ^aDiner, it is unoerstoocl tnat tne Frank oliver Alberta, and W.W B Liberal members are satisfied with Mclnnes will be the British Columbia their representation as being very lieutenant.It is expected Hon.A.F.generous in proportion to the support^1- Turgeon, Attorney-General for which will be accorded the new a^_ ^aa,ociated Pre»» Despatch.)

LONDON, Oct.12\u2014Reuter\u2019s correspondent at British headouarters in France telegraphed yesterday : \u201cThe following interesting report is given as an example of how enemy troops are being used up : \u201cCase of the 234th Prussian Division\u2014This latter was raised in January.and sent to the west front in April, to the northwest of St.Quentin.They were immediately heavily attacked bv the British.These lads of the 1948 class, were badly shaken by a whirlwind bombardment, which inflicted heavy casualties, while one regiment lost many prisoners.The division appeared in September on the Ypres front, being thrown in to counter-attack us on September 20th and being repulsed.Again on September 26th some elements of the same division were completely shattered.The result is that the division exists only in name.Several of the.officers, who were not trusted by the non-coms., have been retired.This is interesting, because ot etainordludlu interesting because it is a reminder that the old German officer class has almost entirely been used up.FRENCH REPULSE GERMAN EFFORTS TO REGAIN GROUND * # #\tEVERYTHING GOING WELL #\tWITH BRITISH.\t# f\t.\t\"U\u2014\t* & (Associated Press Despatch.) iji #\t^ British Headquarters in & tfc France and Belgium, Oct.12.% #\t\u2014By 7.45 o\u2019clock this morning 7?#\treports were received that ev- ^ #\terything was going well with # today\u2019s British attack in Flan- # #\tders.The troops along a wide ® front had pushed forward to a Sf depth averaging eight hundred iff iff yards or more.\t$ iff Prisoners are beginning to # #\tcome in already, although iff #\tslowly, owing to the condition ^ #\tof the ground.\t# #\tjjjs sy Farm, enabled us to bring back prisoners.An enemy surprise attack west of Maisons De Champagne, and .three German efforts in the region of Auberive and Souain came to nothing.\u201cOn the right bank of the Meuse artillery fighting continues in the region of Bezonvaux.\u201d (Associated Press Despatch) PARIS, Oct.12.\u2014\u201cThe night was marked by great activity of the artillery and by a series of German efforts at varioua points on the front,\u201d says today\u2019s official statement., \u201cWest of Cerny we repulsed an enemy attack, while a detailed operation carried out by us north of Noi- OPTIMISTIC REVIEW OF PAST WEEK\u2019S WORK LONDON, October 12.\u2014Major General Frederick U.Maurice, chief director of military operations at the War (iftlee, in his weekly talk yesterday with the Associated Press, after an optimistic review of the past week\u2019s work on the llritish front in Flanders, said \u201cWe have every right to he confident when we see what our men have (Continued on page 10) ;

\u201cGerman diplomacy is not celebrated for definiteness, but even in its annals it will be difficult to find a more clumsy or more transparent manoeuvre than this maladroit to sow discord between ourselves and our French allies.Von Kuehlmann relegates the Belgian question to a secondary position.\u201cI have formerly asked whether Germany was ready to restore Belgium in the only real sense acceptable to the allies, but I have received no answer, and Von Kuehlmann, who can beboisterously definite and precise concerning Alsace-Lorraine, preserves, regarding Belgium, an unbroken, but significant silence.\u201d Concluding with an illusion to the general situation, Mr.Asquith said: \u201cIf it is to be a contest of endurance we have no reason to lose heart or hope.During the last fortnight our unconquerable troops have been do- v\t¦ ing great things both in Flanders and , fended them from the charge ot pro Mesopotamia.There is still need of fiteering, but added that he wanted economy and good organization in .t0 appeal to them to assist the Gov-I the consumption of necessary com-1 ernment in this very critical stage ot modities, but not the slightest danger\u201d the war, for they were fighting on one i of our being starved into submission.;

that Tetreault, a highly interested witness, had denied one, but that the other violation by the bai'keeper Ducharme had not been directly contradicted, the other witnesses merely stating that they had drunk no liquor there themselves, and that Charbonneau\u2019s evidence showed that he had been given gin with his ginger ale, having asked for that under the local designation of \u2018\"un rond.\u201d It is understood that Mr.Tetreault through his attorneys will seek a further hearing of the case.Y.M.C.A.NOTES MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN.The membership campaign is now on, and, the enthusiasm shown by the captains and lieutenants indicates that the different classes in the physical departments will not only be up to the standard, but will be ahead of lastyear The result so far brings the Commercials six ahead of the Industrials.All canvassers are reminded to bring cards tonight, or at latest Saturday night, so that comparisons may be made and other cards distributed.BILLIARD TOURNAMENT.A billiard tournament will be in charge of Mr.R.W.Scott.All those interested should make application at once.GYM.CLASS OPENING.Yesterday the business men\u2019s class met for the first time at 5 o\u2019clock, and although the number was not large ,the men were enthusiastic and the inciease in enrolment is looked for next week.The young men\u2019s evening class also held their first session at 8 o\u2019clock last evening when the physical director, Mr.Fletcher, put enough \u201czip\u201d into the exercises to make them anxious for more.The senior school boys\u2019 class will meet today at 4 p.m.and the business boys\u2019 at 8 o\u2019clock this evening.The schedule of the school boys' classes has not been definitely fixed but plans are being discussed to give the boys an extra half hour for gym and swimming.The business men have started the formation of their famous volley ball team.They have got the jump on the young men\u2019s class in this respect, but will have to be faithful in their work if they wish to hold their reputation as champions.CANADIANS IN Ü.S.LIABLE FOR SERVICE Proclamation to This Effect Will Be Issued From Ottawa on Saturday.OTTAWA, Oct.12\u2014Official notice will be published throughout the United States on Saturday, calling the attention of Canadians to the first call under the Military Service Act.All British subjects who have resided in Canada since the declaration of war, and are of military age, are liable to military service under the Act ;

tablets from which coffee or cocoa can be made quickly for the wounded ; insect powder, and many other essentials for trench efficiency.These comfort packages have saved many lives and much suffering.The Canadian Red Cross not only ministers to the needs of the men at the front and in hospitals, but devotes special attention to the rest camps, and provides comforts there that make the lot of the men easier and hasten the time for their recovery.French wounded are also cared for by the Canadian Red Cross,which is at present spending $200,000 on a model hospital in the rear, where a unit of the Canadian Army Medical Corps will be stationed.A branch storehouse assists in providing Canadian supplies to the French military hospitals all along the front.The Canadian people cannot find a better outlet for their sympathy and their voluntary contributions than to aid the Red Cross work under the flag of the Allied nations.MARRIAGES ys*+***+**^++*+*»*+*m&**M SHUFELT \u2014 SWEET KNOWLTON, Oct.12\u2014 (Special) \u2014A very quiet but interesting wedding took place on Wednesday afternoon.The contracting parties were Rupert H.Shufelt, of East Famham and Ella M.Sweet, at the home of the bride\u2019s father, Mr.R.B.Sweet, on Conference Heights.Only immediate relatives were present in conse-quenee of a recent bereavement.The marriage ceremony was conducted by Rev.E.M.Taylor, a long time friend of the family.The presents were numerous and appropriate.A wedding repast was enjoyed, after which the bridal couple motored to Cowansville, to take the train for Springfield, Mass., and other points in New England where they have relatives.Mr.Shufelt is engaged at Adams-ville, where he is held in high esteem.HAPPENINGS AT DANVILLE Council Makes Donations For Patriotic and Red Cross Work.ar\u2014 - - NOff RUSTABLE WATERVILLE RED CROSS GROUP.WATERVILLE, Oct.10.\u2014(Special)\u2014The Waterville Red Cross Group shipped for September to the Montreal branch, 80 T-bandages, 6 body binders, 16 sanitary covers, 10 kit bags, 16 personal property bags, 5 flannel shirts, 8 suits pyjamas.Anyone wishing to contribute to the 40 Christmas boxes that are being made up to send overseas may do so by leaving their gifts with Mrs.F.G.Gale, secretary, Mrs.F.H.Rowe, treasurer of the Patriotic Society, or to Mrs.S.Davenport, who has charge of packing and mailing the boxes.It is requested that all gifts be in before Oçt.20.FOWLER\u2014DOYLE.KIRKDALE, Oct.12\u2014(Special) \u2014A quiet but pretty wedding took place atJHoly Trinity Church on Wed-| nesday at 2 p.m., when Miss Hazel M.Doyle, eldest daughter of Mr.and Mrs.Newton Doyle, was united in marriage to Mr.Henry A.Fowler of Melbourne Ridge, the ceremony being performed by the Rev.J.S.Dickson.The bride who was unattended, was given away by her father and wore a navy blue suit and white silk crepe-de-chene blouse with hat to match.The Wedding March was played by Miss Gladys M.Mountain, friend of the bride.The ushers were Messrs.Dwight Fowler and Edwin Doyle, brothers of both bride and groom.The church was beautifully decorated for the occasion.A large arch was placed over the altar, covered with evergreens and flowers.After the ceremony a very sumptuous supper was served at the home of the bride\u2019s parents, by Miss Annie L.McCaig, cousin of the bride, assisted by Miss Grace Barton.The wedding gifts were costly and numerous.The groom\u2019s gift to the bride was a gold crescent brooch set with pearls, and to the organist, a set of gold beauty pins, with pearl setting.The happy couple left for Melbourne Ridge amid showers of good wishes from their many friends, where they will make their future home.HT!
