tbe close, or received at the Torcn+o office before the close of business to-day.The Finance Committee retired to consider the matter and on returning to the Council chamber, Aid.Tenches elated that as there were many conditions laid down which it was desirable the committee should study, they had decided to ask the representative for a little further delay.Mr.McLeod ultimately agreed to wait until to-night, and the Council afterwards adjourned until 8 o\u2019clock th's evening.The Finance Committee\u2019s report will come up as the first business.VALUATION COMPLAINTS The hearing of valuation protests was resumed at the Council meeting last night.In the case of the British American Land Co.the amount was \u2018reduced from $176,850 to $135,150.Mr.Cate, who appeared for the Co., agreed to this, which reduced the increase from 75 p.c.to 50 p.c.over the previous year.He pointed out, however, that the valuation of corresponding properties had not been proportionately increased and be should expect these things to be equalized next year, or a protest would be made.Resolutions were passed notifying Mr.Armitage and Mr.C.J.Brown to appear at a meeting on February 2nd., with reference to their properties, valued at $10,000 and $12,000 respectively.In the case of A.Cloutier, King He., the increase to $10,000 was sus tained.The objections of the Jenckes Machine Co., The Baton Mfg.Co., D.G.Loomis & Sons, and the Magog Woollen mills Co.were held over until the next meeting.The Finance Committee and the valuators reported that in connection with the protest of the Quebec Central Railway Co., they recommended that the valuaeion of the lands in the South Ward be maincaln-ed at $13,400, and that the new office building on Strathcona Square be valued \u201cfor this year only\u201d at $50,-000.Aid.Jenckes added that the whole Council appreciated the work of the Q.C.R., and the additions to their Newington shops, and hoped the concession would meet with their approval.Mr.j, h.Walsh, in reply, noted tbit ihe $50,08(1 was fixed \u201cfor this year only,\u2019\u2019 which seemed to he an Inclination for future Increase, and if a corporation like Q.C.R.which came to city and erected a building, which was an ornament to the place, were going to be mulcted like that, it was very poor encouragement for the future.Next year there would be other valuators, and the inclination o! human nature was to \u201cstick\" a company, and he asked in fair treatment that the valuation be fixed for a reasonable time\u2014five or tfn jcnrs.Aid.Jenckes pointed out that the Council could not legally fix the valuation for a term of years.Mr.Walsh thought a bye-law,should bo made, but the objection was overcome by the withdrawal of the words referred to upon motion, after which Mr.Walsh expressed his satisfaction and thanked tbe Council.WINNIPEG WILL MAKE BIG LOAN.Winnipeg, .Tannery 22.\u2014 Winnipeg will rnqulro to borrow $5,r>!)i6,666 to ojterate the affairs of the

10 BE BURIED RESIDE WIFE Suggestion Made That Service be Held in Westminster Abbey PASSING OF HIGH COMMISSIONER HAS COMMANDED WIDESPREAD ATTENTION.London, January 22.\u2014While the lun eral arrangements have not yet been definitely completed it is understood that Lord Strathcona will be buried on Monday at Highgate cemetery, where the late Lady Strathcona was buried in November lastf The suggestion has been made in certain quarters that a public funeral service be held in Westminister Abbey or St.Paul\u2019s Cathedral, and the body entombed in either one or other of the two famous crypts hut it.is believed that the Baroness Strathcona, following the known inclinations of her late father, would prefer to have him buried beside his wife and companion of seventy years.The Ohroncile, editorially, suggests burial at St.Paul's, citing the example of Sir George Grey, the great pro-consul of Australasia, who In the early days in the Southern Pacific had the same influence over the natives there as Lord ¦ Strathcona had over the.Indians and native races of Canada.Sir George Grey was buried in St.Paul\u2019s.The Daily Telegraph also thinks that the honor is deserved, referring to the fact that a momi-mentto Sir John Macdonald has been erected there.LEADING STATESMEN MOURN The passing of Lord Strathcona has commanded widespread attention, evokingfrom all quarters expressions of sympathy, coupled with lavish tributes to the great empire-builder.From the King in tbe Palace down to the man sweeping the street in Grosvenor Square who told he had heard what a wonderfully kind old Canadian lived there the tributes which were w\u2019ritten or uttered were peculiarly striking.STRATHCONA\u2019S WINNIPEG HOLDINGS OYER TW\u2019O MILLIONS.Winnipeg, Jan.22.\u2014It is estimated that the holdings of the late Lord Strathcona in Winnipeg will total over $2,000,000.In Sijver Heights he held over 800 acres of valuable property.He owned Fort Garry Court, at the corner of Main street, and the Broadway Block on Broadway, and several other valuable properties both in the -city and throughout the province.WORTH FROM $60,000,000 to $100,-000,000.Montreal, Jan.22.\u2014Local financiers who discussed the value of the estate of Lord Strathcona yesterday admitted it would be impossible to form an estimate that would not be several millions above or below what it may turn out to be worth eventually.Estimates made varied from $60,-000,000 to $100,000,000.Many put the estate around $75,000,000 to $80,-000,000.Lord Strathcona\u2019s holdings were scattered throughout many countries and it was considered a tribute to bis remarkable foresight that affairs were in such shape that the market was absolutely unaffected.It was stated on excellent authority that his mind was so clear on business affairs that only last Saturday he had instructions cabled to his New York agents respecting certain transactions which he desired to have put through.ONE OF LAST BENEFACTIONS.London, Ont., Jan.22.\u2014One of the last official acts of Lord Strathcona was to send to the Hon.Adam Beck for use in connection with the Alexandra Sanitarium here, a cheque for $15,000.Accompanying it was another for $5,000, from his wife.Ottawa, j&i).i'2.\u2014The Duke of Connaught liassent the following cablegram to the Secretary of State for the Colonies, Hon.Louis Harcourt, in reply to bis message of condolencelto the Canadian people : \u201cPlease except tbe expression of very deep sympathy from the Duchess of Connaught and myself, Lord Strathcona\u2019s lofty Ideals, his splendid patriotism, as well as his distinguished services ns High Commissioner have long been a source of pride and stimulus to bis native country.Among Lord Strathcona\u2019s many great qualities, his truly magnificent generosity was probably the most outstanding and his memory will ever be kept green in the Dominion as the generous man of Canada.\"(Signed), Arthur.\u201d CANADIAN REPRESENTATIVE Ottawa, Jan.22.\u2014Arrangements as re^rds representation of the Canadian Government at the obsequies of Lord Strathcona will be made as soon as word arrives from London in regard to certain details of tho latter.The matter was discussed by the Cabinet yesterday, but not decided.B.(\u2019.HOUSE ADJOURNS.Victoria, B.(\u2019., January 22.\u2014 The session of the Provincial Legislature was cut short yesterday by adjournment out of respect to the memory of the laite Lord Strathcona.A resolution of sympathy with the bereaved family

Connecticut Cotton Will Soon Bo Running EXPECTED THAT ITW ILL MEAN THE REPATRIATION OF MANY WEAVERS FROM THE STATES.The construction of the factory of the Canadian Connecticut Cotton ! Mills Ltd., Sherbrooke\u2019s new indus-Itry, has recently been completed.It ;is situated in the West Ward near Drummond Road.The main building measures 113 feet x 236 feet, with two and three storeys; the Picker Building is 60 x 61, three storeys; the boiler house |52 x 40, one storey, and the storehouse 10\u20180 x 100, one storey.The .height of the chimney is 80 feet.The buildings are all brick built, [slow burning construction, except the storehouse, which has wood sides I with three brick fire walls.About 270 men were employed in the erection, and although the contractors had considerable trouble at u,c co^imeucement to secure sufficient ; skilled and unskilled labor, these obstacles were overcome, the local Unions assisting in the matter.The batter boards were set and the ground was broken on September 4'th., and the task of the contractors which included grading, sewering had all work ready for occupancy, cxeent heating and electric fittings, on 28th.The whole of the work, therefore, was finished in less than four months.The interior walls of the main building are painted white down to j within five feet of the floor, the low-! er part being a green dado.Teo elevators have been installed, in the north and south ends respectively.A | glass petition runs across the first floor, dividing the card room from the weaving department.PRECAUTION AGAINST FIRE ' [ Every precaution has been taken against fire.Heavy automatic fire doors have been fixed in every room, and ruby glasses which act as a good exit sign have been fitted in all transoms opening out on to fire escapes.Sanitation has received every attention.The toilet rooms have teraz-zo floors with enamelled brick wails, and the latest drinking fountains arc in use.WELL LIGHTED.One important feature is the jnaxl-mum amount of light obtained, 85 p.c.The Architect, Charles W.Pra-ray of New Bedford, Mass., is one of the leading mill engineers of new England, and is noted for procuring as much light as can possibly be acquired.In the storeroom a room has been divided off and made Sre proof, which will be used for an opening room.A conveyor will deliver the cotton to tbe picker room.The staircases are wide and convenient and the heating, lighting and ventilation of the whole of the premises have been adequately provided for.A railway siding runs within a tew feet of the mill door.COMPANY OWNS SIX ACRES.Six acres of ground are altogether owned by the Company, and it is confidently anticipated that within a short time additions will have to be made to the new buildings.The windows, doors and finish were furnished by the Tobin Manfg.Co., of Bromptonville and all cast iron was furnished by the Jenckes Machine Co.J.S.Mitchell & Co., supplied nails, cement and hardware.WEATHER HELPED.Mr.McKenna, Supt., of the construction, in speaking to the \u201cRecord\u201d remarked upon the excellent weather which enabled them to finish ahead of contract time.He also stated they had been very fortunate in receiving materials without unnecessary delays.LOCAL HELP EMPLOYED.Mr.Obadiah Butler, the local manager, has been in Sherbrooke for some time.Local help has been employed In setting up the machinery, and\" the mill is starting up with bright prospects for the future.The contractors for the buildings were the J.W.Bishop Co., Inc., of Providence, R.I., who also have offices in New York, Boston and Wor-\u2019 eester, Mass.Their work is a combination of model workmanship and good materials.REPATRIATION OF WEAVERS.It is interesting to note that this is the first mill of its kind to be built in Sherbrooke, and will most probably lead to the repatriation of many young weavers of both sexes who have at various times left the city to follow their vocation in the States.Indeed there is no doubt that a large number will grasp the opportunity to return to their homes.CONFESSION HIDE BY CONSME BENI Plot For.\u2019s Escape Planned In Office of Attorney Hagel

newspaper in question might reach the House during the afternoon.If so, the matter might be proceeded with at once.Premier Gouin\u2014\u201cI want to read tbe article and then will decide what to do.I want to see how this thing originated and we will go to the bottom of it.\u201d THE CHARGES.The charges were made in an article published in the Montreal Mail yesterday.The paper charges that

caught by a cleverly timed trick, in which professional detectives figured.The Mail says : \u201cMr.David W.Hyland, who figures as one of the incorporators of tbe \u201cMontreal Fair Association\u201d is none other than Mr.G.B.\tBiddinger, Assistant General Manager of the Burns Agency, and next in authority to William J.Burns himself.Mr.Biddinger has conducted many investigations into corrupt

comprising D.W.Hyland and his associates of three men and a lascinating woman, according to gill accounts, were a clever crowd and they played the game for all it was worth, say the Government supporters.They were at the Chateau Frontenac for practically the whole session, and according to rumor around the hotel, they were supplied not only with funds, but with everything requisite to carry out their plnns.Another part of the plan, according to the story in circulation, was to Inveigle members to their rooms, and while making them offers record the convPrsatlon with concealed dictaphones and microphones.The hotel maids noticed that tbe rooms of the New York detectives were never left alone and that there was always one of the four men present with the typewritten papers.They usually had their meals served in their rooms and usually dined together.BY OyN WATiR Lost Vessel Was Found at a Depth of 136 Feet in Sea Off Plymouth DISAPPEARED DURING MANOEUVRES OFF PLYMOUTH, ENGLAND, LAST

new campaign is to include raids on the homes of the members of the Cabinet, and violent disturbances at society functions and sporting events.EXPECTED TENDERS WILL BE CALLED FOR EARLY IN MONTH OF MARCH.Present indications point to active work on the Sherbrooke to Boundary Road next spring and it.would appear that the Government has deckled definitely upon the straight trunk line.It is understood that Mr.A.J.Bissonnette, M.L.A.for Stanstead, after an interview with Quebec authorities has informed some of his inquiring constituents that this decision is final and absolute.The Record learns, however, that there is a strong probability that North Hatky and Ayer\u2019s Cliff, the important and attractive summer resorts on Lake Massawippi, will be linked up with tbe main trunk road.That the Government proposes to go ahead with the work is still further supported by information obtained by Mr.O.E.Thérrien, M.L.A.for Sherbrooke.Mr.Therrien in reply to an inquiry from the Sherbrooke Board of Trade, writes : \u201cI received your letter with copies of resolutions passed by your Board concerning the Sherbrooke & fi*¦?-?.-stead road and Mr.Bissonnette, member for Stanstead, and myself, had a long interview with the Honorable J.E.Caron, Minister of Roads.He toll us that this road would certainly be built next summer and they are working on the plans and specifications at the present moment, and by the first of March they will call for tenders to begin actual work in tbe Pnrin,r, and I feel certain that this will be carried out.\u201d The resolution referred to was passed by the Sherbrooke Board some weeks ago, urging that the work on this highway be not delayed.The Board did not urge any particular route but gave its support to the general project of a trunk line.ANOTHER STRIKE THREATENED.London, dan.22.\u2014 Despatches from \u2018 Johannesburg yesterday said that [ rumors\u2019 were current that tbs Rand [miners are attempting

That the automobile is as indispensable in the lives of civilized people as the telephone, telegraph, trolley car, steam engine and typewriter, is a fact that cannot be disputed.No reward or praise can be too great for the men who have put their in-I ventive power, genius, fortune and I\" transcending ambition into the making of the world\u2019s automobiles.These men are, in the highest.' sense, benefactors of their kind ; they see ahead and know that the age of the automobile is just beginning\u2014their great | work is just started.| The automobile means economy; it H doubles the efficiency of man, adds it hours to his day >; and this does not R only apply to the doctor with his S many visits, or to those who use it P merely for social pleasure\u2014it will do i| more for the grocer, the contractor i and the small business man than it will do for the richest citizen, for the poor man is the man who is in need of doubled efficiency\u2014for it is efficiency that produces wealth.The day is hero when the man of average means can own an automo-! bile economically.The automobile i manufacturers are to-day developing a field of sales by presenting a real usable value In their cars.This real usable value finds its development through the years of manufacturing and concentrating upon one ideal un-i til perfection is attained ; the basic principles upon which they build their product, aside from simplicity and accessibility, are to eliminate friction, guard against distortion, re-| ducc wear to a minimum, and to de-| liver the maximum power to the dri-! ving wheels.The world did not really begin to progress until the principle of the wheel was discovered.The wheel has no counterpart in nature.It is a man\u2019s invention, and! through it we get transmission ofi energy, rapid transit, and all that! makes for wealth and efficiency ; ! without the wheel there would he no wealth, for unaided, save by his ! bands and feet, man Is barely abloj to get food, and as for shelter, a cave or a log would have to suffice.The wheel is the fulcrum of motion.It multiplies power by ten and transmits it.Just how far back in history it dates we do not know.Pro-! hably not very many centuries, for the North American Indian knew nothing about it\u2014he pulled things by dead lift ; the stone boat wan his automobile, and ho certainly never \u201ccx-l ceoded the speed limit.\u2019\u2019 The time when the automobile! awakens feelings of envy and prcju-l dice is fast passing.The world cannot afford to stand in its own light, to do so is to hold back the era of Itlie mind.All these marvellous ma-1 I chines are the product of man's brain! and man's only hope for the future on this piauat, is his brain.The nu- ONTAtild\u2019S METAL MINES Mining is an Important Industry of the Province Metal mining has become a great industry in Ontario.Gold, silver, nickel and copper are produced in largo quantities.Fo some years the nickel-copper mines of the Sudbury district have been widely known as the world's chief source of nickel and important producers of copper.Since the original discovery in 1003 the sliver mines 'at Cohalt have placed Ontario in a prominent position as a producer of silver.The deposit* are remarkably rich and the profit has been unusually large, amounting to about one-half o!

Alaska\u2014comprehends six great physiographic units.Of these the greatest covers an area of over 2,000,000 square miles extending in a more or less U shape from Labrador on the east to Coronation Gulf on the west, bordering the great Hudson Bay Depression.This area, designated the Laurentian Peneplain or Plateau is a region of great potential importance as a producer of minerals of economic value.Within this region occur the phosphate deposits of me Ottawa Valley; the silver mines of Cobalt; the gold deposits of Porcupine; the nickel-copper deposits of Sudbury and the iron mines of the Michipicoton district.The importance, the department officials state\u2014already demonstrated as a source of such minerals as graphite, feldspar, mica, corundum, Iron ores\u2014both magnetites and hematites \u2014silver, cobalt, copper, nickel and gold\u2014will undoubtedly be greatly extended in the future.The second regional unit is the Hudson Bay basin, occupying a central depression in the Laurentian Plateau, of which the coastal plain is largely unexplored hut is known to contain deposits of rock salt and gypsum.Southeast of the Laurentian Plateau, including that part of Quebec south of the St.Lawrence and east of Sherbrooke, and the whole of the Maritime Provinces is the Acadian region.In its eastern section\u2014Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are found very important coal fields and other mineral products are copper, gold, sulphur, gypsum, oil, gas, sandstones, limestones, clays and building and ornamental stones of various kinds.Next of the regional units is the St.Lawrence plain, extending from Quebec to Lake Huron and including the lowland areas of Ontario.Although essentially an agricultural area it contains salt, gypsum, natural gas, petroleum, building stones, brick clays and the raw material of various cements, limes and mortars.Westward from Winnipeg is the Great Plains Area, extending to the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, a distance of 600 miles, and northward from the boundary to the Arctic Ocean.The southern parts produce natural gas, building stones and raw material for cements and mortars\u2014the northern part is only partially explored but is known to contain deposits of rock salt, gypsum, coal and tar sands.More important are the deposits of lignum coal.Next to this area is the mountain ranges with immense reserve of bituminous coal, while the Cordilleran belt has valuable deposits of economic minerals, and especially silver, gold and copper.This region when fully explored \u201cis destined to become one of the most important mining sections of the world.\u201d In the Superior Court The 17th day of January, 1914.Before MESSRS, GKNlüST & UKUD-ERICK, Dame Celinda y.Dougher, widow oi the late Josiah K.Boughcr ; Howard M.Bougher, manufacturer, and Samuel C.Bougher, manufacturer, ail of the city of Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsylvania, one of the United States oi America, in their quality of executors of the last will and testament and codicil thereto of the said late Josiah lv.Bougher, in his lifetime of the same place, manufacturer,and the said Dame Celinda S.Bougher, Howard M.BoUgrher, Samuel C.Bougher and Herbert J.Bougher, manufacturer ; Sherman Bougher, manufacturer, all of the city of Philadelphia, aforesaid ; Dame Margaret Estelle Bougher, wife separate as to property of William Hoffman, advertising agent oi Philadelphia, aforesaid', and the said William Hoffman for the purpose of authorizing his said wife to ester en justice ; Dame Bertha Luray Bougher, wife separate as to property of Charles B.Hetzell, contractor, of Philadelphia, and the said Charles U.Hetzell, for the pur-po»e of authorizing his said wife to ester cn justice ; the said Celinda S.Boughej, Howard M.Bougher, Samuel C.Bough-e:y Herbert J.Bougher, Sherman Bou gher, Margaret Estelle Bougher and Bertha Luray Bougher, in their quality of heirs and legatees under the said last will and testament and codicil thereto of the said late Josiah K.Bougher,\tPlaintiffs, vs.J.Warren Collision, of the city of Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsylvania, one of the United States of America, in his quality of sole executor of the last will and testament of his father, the late J.Warren Coulstou, senior, and the said J.Warren Coulstou, as being the sole surviving heir and legatee under the will of the said late J.Warren Collision, senior,\tDefendant, and r>ame Hannah M.Bailey, widow of the late Ebenczar Headley Bailey ; Dame Cora B.Bailey, wife separate as to property of Clarence J.Harper, and the said Clarence J.Harper for the purpose of authorizing his said wife to ester en justice, and Laura B.Bailey, wife separate as to property of Louis K.Gilroy, and the said Louis K.Gilroy for the purpose of authorizing his said wife to ester en justice, all of the city of Philadelphia!

A San Francisco school teacher, who had suffered much from eye troubles herself, at one of her visita to her oculist\u2019s office described an incorrigible child in her school who appeared to have some defect of sight, says the American medical association.This suspicion had bean repeatedly reported to his parents, but.ns they were poor as well as ignorant, nothing had hem accomplished so far.She decided, therefore, to make an independent effort in the hoy\u2019s behalf and solicited the the assistance of her oculist's aid.There were doubts cf any good accomplishments being possible, as the boy seemed both extraordinary dull and superlatively mean.His teacher said that at the age of 11 years he was the worst child in her experience of many years of school work.He frequently played \u201chooky,\u201d associated with the worst boys of all ages, smoked cigarettes, swore like a trooper and lied outrageously; besides, he seemed to take a stupid pride in learning nothing and thwarting all her effort\u2019s.The only physical defect noticed was that he held print unusually close to his eyes.Examination showed one eye had two-sevenths and the other one-fifth of normal vision.The boy was dumbly indifferent in the beginning to the eye test, but after much labor and ag-1 gravation, lenses were placed before his eyes giving practically perfect vision at once; then he showed symptoms of being almost human.The glasses were ordered and the case ; gladly dismissed.More than a year afterward the doctor saw the teacher again and inquiries were made with i misgivings.The report was jubilant and astounding.She said that after ! she procured the glasses and had i gained consent for his wearing them, jthe child's transformation was rapid and complete.He had become the willing s'ave of the teacher, where before he seemed to resent her every interest in him; he never missed a day in school, where formerly playing truant was chronic with him.He was the head of his class now, where previously he was too dull to he classed nt all; he had voluntarily stopped his numerous had habits and had become the marvel I of the neighborhood ns well ns the I joy of his parents, and so on.mmi ATTACKS JAW JUDGE Pressure May be Brought to Bear Through Federal Department of justice SAYS JUDGE ALDRICH IS ENDEAVORING TO FIND OUT MOTIVES AND PURPOSES, New York, Jan.21.\u2014Pressure may be brought to bear through the Federal department of Justice upon Judge Aldrich before he gives a hearing on Harry K.Thaw\u2019s habeas corpus petition, William Travers Jerome yesterday declared here.He said that at the conference, he.Governor Glynn and Attorney-General Carmody held to discuss the case, the possibility of appealing to the Department of Justice was taken up.The particular point upon which the Department of Justice would he asked to exert influence was the intimation of Judge Aldrich that he would take under consideration the question of the \u201cgood faith\u201d of New , York State in the Thaw extradition proceedings.\u201cIt looks to us as though Judge | Aldrich thinks he can arraign the I State of New York at the bar of his court and inquire into our motives and purposes in seeking the extradition of Thaw,\u201d said Jerome, i \u201cThe possibility of Judge Aldrich taking such a course was considered by Attorney-General Carmody and myself to involve a matter so grave that we have discussed the propriety I of submitting the whole matter to the Department of Justice at Wash-' ington for such action as may be deemed wise and proper.\u201d The Department of Justice will not investigate the extradition proceedings in the Thaw case according to Washington despatches to-day.A high official of the department declared the Federal government could not take a hand in proceedings of this character between two States.Should Jerome file an appeal with the department nothing will be) done unless it submits evidence sufficiently strong to warrant an investigation with a view to the impeachment of Judge Aldrich.MCCONNELL Arrivals and departures: Mr.and Mrs.Elmer Maxfield, of Saskatoon, called at Mr.Spendlovc\u2019s recently;
