ATHENS, March 2.\u2014The Greek government has formally released the steamship Espoir, which was captured by a Greek torpedo boat, destroyer off the const of Asia Minor on February 12.The Espoir sailed from the port of Piraeus after her cargo had been discharged.France\u2019s decision to insist upon immediate restitution of the Espoir\u2019s cargo was communicated to the foreign office yesterday by the French Minister.* * *\tTHE WEATHER +; Lined for the army ________ _ J.\t, ._ ., Kernel Pasha, Turkish Nationalist ?\t?\u2022J\"******** *!\u2022 + \u2022*> leader, with whom the Greeks are at Seizure of the Espoir was the subject for two notes to Greece from the French Government, the first demanding release of the vessel and cargo and the second threatening retaliatory measures if the request was not granted.The Greek Government, in an answer to the first note, said it would release the ship but not the enrgo, which it contended was contraband of war des-of Mustapha SNOW TODAY, FRIDAY FAIR (Special to The Record.) QUEBEC, Mar.2.\u2014Not for a long time has the legislative assembly witnessed such a stormy scene as during the sitting yesterday afternoon, when Mr.Sauve, Hon.J.L.Caron, Minister of Agriculture; Hon.Mr.Galipeault, Dr.Lemieux, Chairman of the House in committee, and the Liberal membership generally staged a battle that, while short, threatened to necessitate the intervention of the seargeant-at arms.The confusion was great, the Liberal members shouting \u201cÔrder\u201d at Mr.Sauve with great gusto, while he told them to rattle their chains of slavery.The opposition was in fine fighting form, making up in vigor, what it so sadly lacks in numbers, and the Minister of Agriculture finally called up the reserve in the shape of half a dozen rural members to say what a fine measure was before the House.The bill was one providing that rural municipalities may advance money to farmers for the purpose of buying '.seed.C.E.Gault.St.George, Montreal, and General Smart, Westmount, fought, the bill on its financial basis.Mr.Sauve joined in, and, contrary to usual custom, fell full on the Minister of Agriculture.Jos.Renaud, of La val, took a hand on the general prin ciple of aiding his leader, Mr.Sauve.It was not until adjournment that the excitement calmed down.The bill provides that the council of any rural municipality or any county council governing a terri-tory> not yet erected into a local municipality, or whose council is not yet organized, may by resolution passed by the majority of the members, not otherwise appropriated, or borrow the sums necessary for the purchase of seeds of seed grain intended to be sold to such of the rate payers who may need the same, or the sums required for grantingioansrt.\" such of the fatepay-ers as desire to purchase for themselves, The money loaned by a municipality can be collected in the same way as taxes up to the amount of $100.Money raised for these purposes will not affect the borrowing power of such municipalities.Hon.Mr.Caron explained that last year had been an exceedingly difficult one for the farmers in Quebec, and unless some provision was made many of them would be without seed for the 1922 planting.This bill was finally put through third reading.NO MORE POWER FOR MAYOR MARTIN.No attempt was made to obtain any additional powers for Mayor Mederick Martin, of Montreal, when the bill of the city was being put through the final stages in the private bills committee today.\u201cHas anyone a motion as to the powers of the Mayor?\u201d asked Dr.Poulin, of Laurier, Montreal, who has been most active in Montreal affairs before the committee.\u201cWe arc all unanimous that the powers of the Mayor should not he extended,\u201d said Aid.Leon Trepan-ier, and the matter ended there.There has been a havy slump in mayoralty \u2022stock this season, judging by indications.Hon.Mr.Martin, when asked whether he intended to make an effort for the restoration of his old powers when the hill is before the Legislative council, failed to show any enthusiasm, and contented himself with the cryptic phrase \u201cTime will tell.\u201d There will be various motions in the Legislative Assembly when the bill is being considered to restore some of the clauses struck out, and notable will be the fight of Dr, Poulin, of Laurier, on the Montreal Water & Power Company, he wants it, expropriated.MARY PICKF0RD WINS AN INTERESTING CASE LADY WILL TAKE SEAT IN HOUSE OF LORDS.(Associated Press Despatch.)

TORONTO, Mar.2.\u2014A statement on the farming situation by Hon.Manning Doherty, Minister of Agriculture, featured yesterday afternoon\u2019s session of the Ontario Legislature, when the debate on the reply to the speech from the throne was continued.The Minister said that although the prices of farm products had during the past year fallen to an extent far in excess of what had been anticipated and greatly out of proportion to price reductions in other commodities, yet the farmers of Ontario had met the situation bravely and with a confidence that was inspiring.While their condition is such as to give serious thought, yet he believed that they were better off than those farmers of any other part of the North American continent.Sam Clarke, M.L.À.for North-¦imberland East, Liberal, thought the O.T.A.was wrong in its inception being too drastic and he believed he time would come when a more ane, a more rational and a more mman measure would be put in force.He favored giving magistrates more discretion and not force them to put a fine of two hundred dollars for first offenders.If the government was maintaining liquor dispensaries to supply the needs of the sick then $5.60 a bottle was too much to charge for liquor.\u201cIf you are selling it as a beverage then put on the price,\u201d he said, \u201cbut don\u2019t take it out of the sick and afflicted.\u201d The member of Northumberland questioned the fairness of the go\\r-ernment opening banks to solicit savings at four per cent with the credit of the province as a guarantee.\u201cWho is going to deposit his money at three per cent in a charter bank with the government bank giving four per cent?\u201d he asked.If it were all to be devoted to farming where was the money coming from for other industries which are financed by the banks.U.S.CHAÏRMAN IS OPPOSED TO RECIPROCITY States Canada Refused Definite Offer in 1911.ST.LAWRENCE WATERWAY PROJECT FRANCE SEEKS ONLY PEACE WITH SECURITY, DECLARES PRESIDENT TO THE ANGLO-AMERICAN PRESS People of Michigan Are Solidly Behind It, Says Governor.(Associated Press Despatch) LANSING, Mich, Mar.2.\u2014The people of Michigan are solidly behind the proposed St.Lawrence! ?e hind the proposed Great Lakes-St.Lawrence waterway project.Governor Goresback declared yesterday in a telegram to the National Rivers and Harbors Congress at Washington.\u201cThe lakes to the ocean project,\" the Governor\u2019s telegram said, \u201cmeans much to our agricultural and industrial developments.If New York could afford to spend $165,-000,000 on its present canal, it would seem that the United States could afford to double this expenditure in the development of a real lakes to the ocean waterway.We, of the middle west, would like to see some such action as was taken by Roosevelt when the Panama Canal was begun.I trust no selfish, specious or sectional plea will be allowed to prevail against ultimate success of this national enterprise.\u201d PROTESTS ARE SENT TO QUEBEC K BY AUTO CLUB Proposed Increase in Fees Bitter- !
