Montreal, Aug.13.\u2014The first arrests of the C.P.R.strike were made this sfteenoon, when two of the strikers wefe taken into custody for interfering with men returning from work at the Angus Shops.Since the strike started the men who stayed at work have been henught back to the city in tho evening on a special train which lets tham off at various points, stopping at the, Place Viger station.In this way the returning workers avoid thé pickets around the works.The strikers, however, have tried to meet the men me they get off the traineand this afternoon esveral of them gatherea at Hochelaga and started to argue with the mturning mechanics.They were ordered to move on by.special constables, and all dio so except a striking machinist named Max Giroux, wha became rather violent in his language and was promptly arrested, charged with intimidation and obstructing the street.He was Inter freed on 830 bail.Another striker, Max Bourreskv, invaded the Place Viger station for the same purpose, and was promptly arrested under a charge of trespassing on the C.P.R.property.He was later let out on £100 bail.The strikers are indignant over the arrests, claiming that there was no justice for them.The men come up for preliminary hearing to-morrow, Nothing is known hers of any pro- porition for a conference, befween Preeident O'Connell, of the Metal Workers Section of the American Pederation of Labor, who is on his way here trom Washington.It ie not likely that be will meet Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, as the Intter ie at his summer residence in New Brunswick and in any event the conduct of the strike is entirely in the hands of the local men, who are familiar with its details.\u201c TER LATE MRS.8.CONNOLLY.The funeral of the late Mrs.Stephen oly, which took place yesterday morning from the residence of her son, Mr.Martin P.Connolly, agent of the Richelieu & Ontario Navigation Co., was largely attended bv leading citi- zona of Quebec and Sillery.the chief mourners including the la sons, Mr.Martin P.Conuolly, Rev.Stephen Connolly, C.S8.R., and Mr.Thomas Connolly, of Philadelphia, her son-in- law, Mr.John Power, ber brother, Mr.; .Melyealv, of _Billeev.and her ws, Sit Chas.Fitepatrick, Lieut.John Fitzpatrick and son, and Mr.Wm.MNclnenly.The requiem service at St.Patrick's was most impreesive, the celebrant being her son.Rev.Ste- Connolly, assisted by the Revd.\u2018ather_ Hanlev.Rector of the church, and Father Diiargy, ax deacon and sub-deacon respecti , while the last prayers at the grave in St.Patrick's Cemetery were said hv Father Connolly, assisted bv Father Hanley.The great respect in which the deceased ladv was held wan attested to by the profusion of the floral and other offer- ngs, as well an the la: cortege which accompanied the remaige from the church to the cemetery.IMPORTED DEY GINGER ALE \" SODA WATER SCHWEPPES - » IN TEN ORIGINAL AND UNIVERSAL BRAND.FOR SALE BY ALL LEADING IMPORTERAS.QUEBEC MAN ~ WON AGGREGATE 8th Royal Rifles Wen the Martini Challenge Shield at P.Q.R.A.LH (Special to the Chronicle.)

them.The self anserted relatives had apparently carefully noted the style of neckties worn by the men they pick- | ed out, and the authorities came to the conclusion that the neckties were used as identification marks.Commissioner Kellogr ordered the ten Chinamen deported.\u2014 re ray NORTHWEST CROP Winnipeg, Man, | Aug.13,\u2014Steady rains, worth millions of dollars to western farmers, fell during the last twenty-four honrs throughout the ter part of Southern and Central shatchewan and Manitoba and should ve a factor in the oats trope which has been seriously affected by the continuous droughte, Probably the rain added two or three bushels to the acre to much of the spring wheat cro far advanced to belit.It in only on light lands where cultivation is peor that spring wheat wants the full of.fects of drought ty ripening in the straw before the ear was matured.Heavy precipitation will fatten out the berries in wheat not due for cutting for a week or more.Its most salutary effect will be op the oat crop, which in many parte looked like being the biggest factor in several years.Oats had not gnt sufficient start to sucosssfullv weather the drought and blistored heat, and consequently headed out with straw eo short as to make it difficult to cut, while the undeveloped and starved.The plentiful rain fall will give the crop another start and should bring the gen- oral oat average up to a respectable total, if not up to the average of the past decade.Without the rein the oat crop wig bave hos= à sud lel are | commerce; but a juncture bas been + \u2018 which was not too | FRIDAY, AUGU.T NEWFOUNBLEND MODUS VIVENDI Conclusion of an Agreemeut Between Great Britain and the United States, London, Aug.13\u2014The Foreign Office ia announcing to-night the conclusion of a modus vivendi regarding the Newfoundland fisheries, says: \u2018His Majesty's Government and the Govern.| ment of the United States united | concerning the notes recording this | proposal and its acceptance as constituting in iteelf a satisfactory agree ment for the season of 1908 without the Decessity of a more formal agre- ment.\u201d Sh / , Londea, Avg.14\u2014The Morni in an editori tacks the Government for consentin; to a modus vivendi with the Uni ; States regarding the Newfoundland | fisheries and reproaches Sir Edward ing to American pressure.Continuing the editorial says : \u201cThat while the modus vivendi is concluded for the third time arbitration is still osiling and will continue to be pend.| ing until the Americans have matured | their plans for securing a favorable | verdiet on an issue not of fact but of | reasonableness.Englishmen may well reflect whether the relief from the burden of armaments or from the worry.in~ problem: of Grey, the Forgign Secretary, for yield- | IR sacrifice of normal ideals.\u201d The Times, in an editorial comment- : # vie oR ing on the fact that the modus vendi was concluded with Newfound- | land's awsent al ate conflict between the Imperial Government and the colony hes been averted even in appearance.The present Government has not always | shown tact in dealing with the affairs of the self-governing colonies, but in this instance it a with dignity and in a conciliatory spirit and has now happily reaped the reward of its patience.\u201d 160 BUSHELS OF | OATS T0 ACRE.Wonderful Results of Experiments at Garton's Seed Grounds at Warrington, England, London, Aug.13.\u2014There in growing in Lancashire on Garton's seed grounds at Warrington a single oat plant which surpasses by several hundred points any cereal over produced in the 14, Post, | IZ to-day, strongly at § i Imperial partnership | À | | 1 approval, says :\u2014 , ¢ \u201cHappily, a renewal of the unfortun- | rs to have acted | J Quebet Chro 1908 NA world.Tha single head contains a few !

neglect of early action.(t is energetic onough at the last moment, but its enargy has born wasted bocatse it has.not been brought into play until the last moment, when it vuns fuseily About like a hen with a brood of ducklings, hunting up candidates without having time enough to consider their qualifics tions, glad, sometimes, to get hald of anybody, apd springing them on the eloctorate hy surprise, as the Local Government is in the habit of springing the elactions.The consequence is that the Conservative party in this city, and district has of late years found the politiesl Jordan \u201ca hard road to travel,\u201d and it is not at all to bs wondered at, but it has now an opportunity to turn the tables.It has a great causa to advocate, the cause of the people overtaxed and robbed through grait, and a great leader of whom the Toronto News says that four years ago he was unknown and untried, but during these four years \u201che has been the conspicuous figure of a great national party, and has led the Parliamentary Opposition with patience, wariness, courage and distinction.He has grown steadily stronger, and the Government steadily weaker.His party has shown increasing unity and aggressiveness; the Liberal party has as surely grown more restless, sullen, and dispirited.\u201d Let the party here wake up and get into vigorous action.A GENERAL ELECTION.The Toronto News says: \u201cItis a pretty safe assumption that we shall have the Federal general election during October or November.Sir Wiltrid Laurier is not likely to delay dissolution until the legal term of Parliament has expired.That is not bis method, and, moreover, there is no reason to think that delay will fm- prove the prospect for the Government.Public opinion is steadily turning against the Administration.Nit lost ground seriously during the last session of Parliament.The Opposition is gaining in spirit, in unity, in confidence and in the good-will of the country.It is found that Mr.Borden has very solid qualities.He is singularly trustworthy.He is a for midable critic, and he has capacity for constructive legislation.It is recognized also that he is a sagacious and capable party leader, that he chooses his ground with discretion, that he cannot be stampeded, and that he will not waste his blows over potty and irrelevant issues.\u201cIt takes time for a political leader to @row into the affection of a party and the confidence of a people.Four vears ago Mr.Borden was comparative ly unknown throughout the country.His authority in his own party was bardly established.| Even in Nova Scotia bis name was less familiar to the people than was that of Nr.Fielding, It was a new word in Quebec.He had still to securs a per sonal ascendancy in Ontario and in the Western Provinces.But four years have passed, during which he has been the conspicuous figure of « great national party, and during which he has led the Parliamentary Opposition with patience, wariness, courage and distinction.He has steadily grown stronger, and the Government steadily weaker.His party has shown increasing unity and aggressiveness.The Liberal party has as surely grown more restless, sullen and dispirited.re ree ree THE BOY AND THE ANTI-CIGARET TE ACT The last copy of the Canada Gazette contains the text of the act \u201cto re strain the use of tobacco by young persans,\u201d and, while the object aimed at may be very laudable, the statute itnelf is rather amusing in ite wording.For the purposes of the act a cigarette is described as \u2018any emall rigar made of tobacco rolled up in paper, tobacco lead or other material\u2019 It is open to a considerable amount of conjecture that the person who drafted that legal description of a cigarette had never been introduced to one.Among other drastic enactments, the act provides s fine of Irom 810 to $100 upon any person who directly or indirectly\u201d sells or gives 8 cigarette or cigarette papers or tobacco in any form to a boy under sixtgen.It alse provides that when the small boy is brought up in court he must tell who gave or sold him the rigarette or tobacco, and if he refuses to do so he shall be guilty ol contempt of court! What will bappen to the small boy then is a matter for mysterious and awesome conjecture.Also\u2019 under the act, when the small boy comes up in court he shall be deemed to be under sixteen unless it can be proven that he is over sixteen, Apparently, according to the wording of the act, smoking or chewing tobacco by a boy under rixteen only becomes an offence when he does it \u201cin the street or publie places,\u201d As most boys under sixteen go behind the barn or take to a vacant lot whem feel impelled to indulge in nicotine, this clause should limit the operation of what is otherwise an act vory wide reaching in its provisions.sm oe heme te QUERFC CLEARING HOUSE.Total for the week ending August 13th, 1968 : Clearances, Balances.Corresponding Clearances, Balance.Claire Fontaine .Ld A cup of BOVRIL will drive away that feeling of lassitude so : common in warm weather.BOVRIL p TE CNG HROVIRE 0, St.Peter Street, Lower Town Branch, Fabrique St., Upper Town SPORTING GOODS : Exim ERI Flies, Reels, Lines, Baîts Fumer da ae pas gives vigour and tone to the entire system.\u2014 General and Heavy Hardware S.J.Shaw & Co.13 SL.JOHN STREE! av tod Kolre Dame Streets IN A CHINESE DROUGHT.In many districts of China water bir comes very scarce d tha summer months, Some of the fearful results of the drouth are described thus by the Rev.John MacGowan : \u201cThe great sun blazes down from an unclouded sky and drinks up the water that is clinging to the roots of the rice.The soil now cracks with the fervent heat and every blade of rice seems to be making an apjeal to the heart-broken farmer for the water that alone will ermble it to live.He ia now at his wit's end to save his crop, for that, perbaps, is the only thing now that lies between him and poverty and despair.A failure of the crop means very likely that he will | have to sell his daughter or a son.haps, or even barter away his wile, f he would keep the homestead from slipping from his grasp.Some of the most pitecus scenes in tho many tragic ones that cast their shadow over the home in the experience of the Chinese husbandmen, can be witnessed during the summer months when thers has been a shortage in the fall of rain.Cor.Mouniois Kil FORREST & SONS Salmon Rods, Reels and Flies, Trout Rods and Reels, \u201cThe wells have become dry and the Lines and Flies and little ponds have been drained of every | Tents, Canoes and drop of water they contained.The Camp Outfitsrice in the fields bas lost the dark ete green color that with its rich sheen TELEPHONES: tells of health and vitality end fe turning into a rickly yellow that means decay and death.Water must UPPER TOWN,S73.LOWER TOWN, 44.be got mow, and at any price, for \u2014_\u2014 Tr t tr three davs more of this will we {he grain blasted in the fields.Electrical Supplies.They accordingly dig the ponds deeper Do not forget to call up 2737 to catch the tiniest rills that may or 1126 for your Electrical flow into them, and as the work in installations or repairs, as we the blazing sun might at once drink sre always dy to attend these up, the work ir carried on during the midnight heonra, so that not a drop of the precious fluid may be absorbed by the great thirsty dragon in the eky.\u201c(ten these most pathetic endeavors to anve their crops end in tragedy and death.Man are making a rupreme ef fort to avert disaster from\u2019 their homes and in the mad endeavor to gain the water for themselves the wildest par- sions of the heart ars aroused and neighbors will struggle with each other far the slowly trickling drone of water.The solemn air of night is broken with the soundn of conflict, and the stars looking down from the midnight sky see murder committed by men whose sole and controlling motive is the preservation of their homes.\u201d\u201d\u2014Chiea- Claire Fontaifie, > A, Xirouae ee eS FRASERS MONTREAL IMPROVED NUTMEG MELONS THE \u201cOUTREMONT BEAUTIES\u201d to your work.J.W.BARRETTE ELECTRICIAN 18 CROWN STREET, \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 The only Great Display of Toys in Quebec\u2014 Recelving Novelties Every Day at THE BEST VARIETY OF MUSK MELON IN THE WORLD OF LIONT OREEN FLESH, LARCESIZE AND MATOHLESS FLAVOUR We control the entire crop of the STANDARD BRAND3 and the BEST VINES on the Island, and are In a position to supply Consumers with the very finest fruit on the most favorable terms.Standing orders for regular shipments during the season policited.FRASER VIGER & CO, LIMITED, ITALIAN WAREHQUSE -
