night, made a clean Pret of the matter to Chief of Detectives Carpenter this evening and confessed that he had done the deed.In the ceil which he is occupying at the Central police station he detailed to the chief all his movements after 4 o'clock yesterday afternoan up to the time when the fatal act had been committed and he fled, after himself lay- ing his wife down on the pavement and hearing her reproachful words: \u201cOh, John, what have you done?\u201d \u2018This confession was a complete somersault in relatÿpn to the man\u2019s at- Jitade in the morning, just following is arrest in the restaurant in which he was employed when, in the presence of a band of newspapermen, he categorically denied any knowldegs of the murder and otherwise accounted for his movements.Not once during his confession did Cummings show amy -frace of e-gotion and he told df the murder as 5 it had deen piled or- wife quarreled and separated, following the arrival of the wiie\u2019s mother, aho declared that he (Cummings) + hed been married in Scotland before marrying the murdered girl and that hé had a wife and child living on the ofliér side.Cummings denied this, bof stated that he was & ven out of his house and estranged from his wife on account of the mother-in-law\u2019s story.He said that since then he had been boarding at different places and doing odd jobs at different times.Yesterday he was working in a St.James street restaurant and had a room there.On leaving work he went to a house on Torrance street, where he had been boarding previously, to get some clothes.He found the people out and passed the time visiting several bars.Returning an hour later the people were still out and he had several more drinks.Then he thought he would go\u2018to the home of his wif¢ and mother-in-law on Chatesuguay street to get some things be had left there after the quarrel With his wife.Passing Centre street he saw his wife walling with a young man, and mad with jealousy, he followed the couple, and, drawing his revolver, fired two bullets into the woman.She fell towards him, while the young man fied.He caught her and laid her on the pavement, and then, seeing that she was dead, took to his heels.He returned to the restaurant but the police traced him and - affected his arrest this morning.C.N.R.BUSY.Toronto, Nav, 22.\u2014Steel is laid to a point 61 miles west of Sudbury on the Sudbury-Post Arthur division of \u20ac.N.R.and a daily passenger service is being run to this point, with freight service three times a week Thirty-five hundred men will be en- paged on

stumbled and fell under a train which was under way for Quebec.Dr.Morrissette attended to his injaries and he was brought to Levis and placed in the Hotel Dieu, It was found necessary to amputate the leg below the knee, the operation being performed by Doctors Roy and Ladricre.The unfortunate man also received injuries about the head, but he was reported yesterday to be much improved PREPARING TO MEET HS FATE Youthful Wife Murderer\u2019s Career Nearing an End\u2014Dis- plays Wonderful Nerve.Richmond, Va, Nov.22\u2014Henry Clay Beattie, jr., the youthful wife murderer, to-day received the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper.He professed religion and tuld his spiritual advisers that he faced the unknown with equanimity.Although Beattie is subdued in demeanor, the wonderful nerve that thus far has sustained the condemned man has not deserted him.The Sacrament was administered with all due solemnity in the death cell in the penitentiary this afternoon.Rev.John I.Fix, the Presbyterian minister, who has labored with Beattie since his condemnation, officiated, assisted by Rev.Benj.Bennis, of South Richmond.The only other person present was the prisoner's aged and broken-hearted father.The vigilance of the death watch was not relaxed during the ceremony, \u2018 although the guards withdrew to the corridor.Reports that Beattie\u2019s iron nerve had brokén have been disproved.During the desperate effort made for a new trial and for a reprieve at the hands of the Governor of the State, the high tension under which ees lingey how same | i eiche wed in ou the i he and his the.eonviesed wap labored sir 4 his nerves as taut as piano wires.Naturally he was irasiable and given to sudden fits uf anger.But these have disappeared.The elder Beattie within the past few hours paid a short visit to the Governor in a final despairing effort to gmin the Governor's interference.It was unavailing.Governor Mann will let the law exact its toll, unless within the few hours before the younger Beattie is led to the death chair he should express a change of mind.This is regarded as almost outside the range of possibility.Invitations have been sent to the twelve witnesses who will compose the jury in the death chamber Friday morning.Under the law the witnesses must present themselves at the prison before 7 o'clock on that morning.Shortly thereafter Beattie will be led from his cell to the chair.Within ten minutes at the most, the jury will be teooping from the chamber of death.The same mails that bore the invitations to the witnesses brought more than one hundred letters to Governor.Mann.Some of the writers commended his policy of non-interference with the mandate of the: law.Others hysterically called upon him to intervene.To none of them was any attention paid.BEES ARE NOT GAME.Albany, N.Y.Nov.22\u2014Bees have never been considered \u201cgame\u201d and no license is required to hunt them says G.V.S.Williams, counsel to the State Conservation Commission, in replying to a letter from a resident of Orleans County asking for infor- |- mation regarding the cutting down of \u201cbee trees\u201d or the taking of honey from them.\u201cBut,\u201d he says, \u201cif you find a \u2018bee tree\u2019 on the lands of your neighbor you must get his\u2019 consent beore cutting down the tree, otherwise you might get \u2018stung\u2019 in an action for

ARMS \u2014\u2014\u2014mm rer a] In the House of Commons-It Was Not Conclud d When the House Adjourned \u2018at 6.00 P.M, Yesterday.From The Chronicle's Staff Correspondent.Orrawa, Ont, Nov.22.\u2014The one real event today in the House of Common was Mr.Monk's getting to his feet.He did not, however, get down to business.Adjowrnment comes automatically at 6 o'clock on Wednesday, and the Minister of Public Works had only begun to feel for his subject when time was up.He paused, indeed, in the very act of a smart interchange with Sir Wilfrid Laurier.! For the rest, there was a desperately wearisome speech by D.D.McKenzie, of Cape Breton, a remarkably promising speech by Mr.A.De.Foster, the member who defeated Sir Frederick Borden, and a very clever speech by Mr.Michael Clarke, of Red Deer.Mr.MecKenzie\u2019s speech fell into three parts\u2014reciprocity, tariff commission and navy.On the first of these he merely re- yreated such Liberal arguments as had taken his fancy in the campaigh.As for the tariff commission, he feared that it would dominate the Government, and, in turn, be deminated by the \u201cbig interests.\u201d Mr.Foster was amusing, pointed and brief.He rallied Mr.McKenzie on his rapid changes on the tariff issue.He rapped Mr.E.M.Macdonald for his unblushing use of bribery by public works.He protested against the blue ruin cry now being raised in Nova Scotia, incidentally speaking generously of the West.He dwelt to some extent on the reciprocity issue.Dr.Clarke spoke cleverly, ascribing the whole prosperity of Canada to the Liberals, and talking free trade.Mr.Monk's earlier passages were marked by a fresh proof of Liberal anger.He passed some of the usnal compliments with his adversaries, his remarks not passing the bounds of parliamentary speech, and some of the Liberals hissed.This very usual demonstration has occurred twice this session.The Minister of Public Works adverted to the peevishness, a man reaches a certain age, leads him to think he alone is right.He denied that Canadfans in rejecting reciprocity had been moved by sentiment alone.There also had been a calm and judicial weighing of all the conditions of the agreement.Any prejudice which had existed had been due to the leader of the Opposition, who had seen a diminution of his power in his own province.Sir Wilfrid Laurier had started long ago a campaign in Quebec that he alone was in a position to protect his compa triots against the encroachments of the Conservatives.Mr.Monk traced the decrease of Sir Wilfrid Laurier's influence from his failure to keep his promises to enact remedial legislation for the Roman Catholics of Manitoba.The next shock was in connection with the Autonomy Acts of 1905, when Sir Wilfrid Laurier had once more abandoned the minority.Mr.Monk was proceeding to deal with Sir Wilfrid Laurier\u2019s naval policy when the House adjourned.In 1902, he said, Sir Wilfrid Laurier\u2019s attitude at the conference had been loudly applauded.So had his attitude in 1907, when he refused to co: operate in Imperial naval defence.Yet he inaugurated a naval policy before the people had an opportunity of expressing their views.Sir Wilfrid Laurier insisted that in 1902 he had declared that Canada was willing to take up naval, as well as land defence, and he and Mr.Monk disputed the point until the adjournment occurred.DEBATE A.uRESS FINISHED IN THE FEDERAL SENATE (By Canadian Associated Press.) OTTAWA, Ont, Nov.22.\u2014The Senate beat the Commons to the finish in the debate address by winding it up this afternoon.Five Senators spoke, Tour of them being Liberals, and all had a little to say about the recent election.The only man who expressed satisfaction with the result was Senator Poirier.Senator William Ross of Halifax regretted that there was neither Presbyterian nor Scotchman in the present Government.Senator Poirier advocated some attention being given to the valance of trade.The national policy had steadily reduced the size of the adverse trade balance until i in 1895 the trade balance became favorable, exports exceeding imports.The Liberals, he said, came in and the adverse trade balance came with them and has grown to immense size.This was a dangerous condition.It meant that money was being sent out of the country which should be kept in Canada.Two poor crops would stop depositing in banks, start withdrawals and shake the banking and financial system of the country.The government should speedily take measures to advert this danger by restoring trade to a favorable balance.The proposal to give more generous aid to encourage agriculture was commendable.The Government should give some aid to intellectual development, as did other countries.Literature, arts and sciences were promoted by all the countries of the world by money grants.The Canadian Government could | make a beginning by paying the travelling expenses of members of the Royal Society of Canada attending the annual meetings.Senator Clouin discussed the elections exclusively and Senator Campbell was not in favor of the appointment of & tariff commission.Choquette deplored the absence of a portfolio holding Minister from the Senate, who thought there should be two, one held by sn Englishman, and the other by a Frenchman.After Senator Choquette's address the Senate adjourned.s TH i THE KANSAS TAR PARTY % Nearing End\u2014Case nd\u2014Case May Go to Jury Today \u2014 Only Two More Speeches\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 Lincoln Center, Kas, Nov.22.\u2014 With only two more closing argu ments to be delivered, it seemed probable to-night that the \u201ctar party\u201d case would go to thé jury to-morrow.The testimony was completed shortly after noon to-day.A recess of two hours was then taken while the judge prepared his instructions.Prosecutor McCanless completed his address before adjournment.At a night session, Col.Donald Ritchie and Z.C.Milliken spoke for the defence.J.J.McCurdy and A.N.Hawkes, representing the defence and the State, respectively, will speak \u2018to-morrow.Attorneys for the defence regard the judge's instrue- tions were that the defendants might be found guilty of aiding and abetting in the crime, even though they were not present.But the mere fact that the defendants had talked with the assailants of Miss Chamberlain regarding the contemplated attack was not in itself sufficient ground on which to base a conviction.The court room, which was half filled this morning, was crowded when Prosecutor McCanless began to speak.Many persons brought their dinners with them in baskets and remained in their seats during the recess prior to the night session.Miss Chamberlain occupied a seat near the jury box where she had a full view of all the jurors.Her mother was with her.The three defendants, A.N.Simms, Sherrill Clark and John Schmidt, also switched their chairs about so they faced the jury.Simms\u2019 wife sat by his side.The other two men were unaccompanied.When County Attorney McCanless began speaking Ricord, who roams the interior of the jail in the court house, because he is the only occupant, threw a shovel full of coal in the stove and went over to the front door to listen.As the speaker's voice became louder, Ricord said : \u201c1'll het he\u2019s giving it to rover mo echo sas cn ludo.Optio PSS date A .x, .io.SPhgs-wPeheatetend- tion.Surely, he said, he was developing the.vanity which, when ants, Jom Schmidt and Sherritt Clark, were the chief witnesses today.Both of them corroborated the statement of Simms that the three defendants never intended to be parties to the \u201ctarring.\u201d made an attempt to reach the scene of the crime.Clark explained that he was at the mill, from which party started, because business called him there.Schmidt said he \u201cjust dropped down to the mill to see the boys,\u201d as was his nightly custom.Schmidt recalled having heard Simms warn the tarrers against painting the school teacher.RAILWAY DECLARES EXTRA DIVIDEND New York.Nov.22\u2014The Cineinnati, New Orleans & Texas Pacific Railway Company declared today an extra dividend of 2% per cent on the common stock.The company also declared a semi-annual dividend of 3 per cent.on the common.which is an increase of one-half of 1 per cent, semi-annually, over the dividend rate, which has ruled since 1906.The usual quarterly dividend of 114 per cent.on the preferred stock was declared.a WILL VOTE ON

that tbe Mayor in- : tends to submit two nodes of assessment at a plebiscite to be taken simultaneously with the nexe elections.It may be confidently aserted, as we foreshadowed some weeks ago, that one of the alternative schemes pro- : vides for the continnation of the present system of taxation with the change that the rate will de reduced from 1734 to 15 per cent.The other contemplates the assessment of real value at a rate of or below one per cent.of the same.This, no doubt, is one way of settling the matter, Lut it seems to us ; that there should Be plenty of time i in the interval between now and the elections for a man with the business reputstion of the Mayor to decide ! which of the two policies he will stand , for and pronounce himseli boldly in | favor of it.We are not saying that such a pronouncement would not re- : quire mature and careful deliberation, | but two or three weeks, or a month at the outside, should be ample time for any man to make wp his mind on a question of this sort.If we remember aright, the {tem of reduced taxation was one of the chief Mayor was elected to office.Yet.until recently, very little has been done in this respect, and even if the pleb- iseite were taken, a considerable time might elapse before action was taken upon it.For one thing, it might be fairly equally divided and, for an- } other, the Aldermen, or some of them } at least, might not consider it at all binding upon them.This question should be thoroughly debated, and passed upon before the elections.and every Alderman should pledge himself to one system or the other before he is elected.It is the issue which is likely to be most important in the coming struggle for municipal honors and its settlement should not be continually deferred, as ; in the past.ANNEXATION DICK.1t is quite evident from Sir Richard Cartwright's little explosion that he would be much more at bome in Washington than Ottawa.What Canada thinks and does is of little importance in his eyes when compared with what may be said by a few disgruntled papess, such as the New York Herald or Mr.Hearst's yellow literature.risimas Presents FOR | DISTANT FRIENDS Christmas

the United States over the rejection of reciprocity, but Americans who know are much more likely to take the view of | the New York Evening Post and ad- | mire the Canadian people for their determination to work out their own destiny independent of any entangling aliances with the States.There is no objection to a certain amount of trade with them, but there is a strong objection to any policy that wrests { from us the control of our own fiscal affairs.The truth of the matter is that Sir Richard has always had this idee fixe of Americanizing Canada in his head.In 1891, when he and Laurier were the chief apostles of what Sir John Macdonald called \u201cveiled treason,\u201d he went {down to Boston and expatriated on the possible effects of reciprocity tin the following words: \u201cA line drawn from the southeast corner of Maine to the Saulte Ste.Marie or to Duluth, would pass full 200 miles north of Toronto and Monreal and nearly double that distance i north of the southern portion of Onj tario; or, in other words not only is a large part of Canada absolutely imbedded in the United States, but the shortest and best routes from important portions of your territory and growing sestions, is directly across ours.The advantages of your (Boston's) position for securing a very large part of our trade are great.You own much of our mineral wealth.Many of our chief trade routes centre here.You are the natural shipping port\u2014especially in winter\u2014for very large sections of our territory.You | lie within very easy distance of our ! cities, and \u2018of the populous portions | of our Dominion.Tn one word, given | | free trade with Canada, and you rise at one stride from the position, if some respects, of 8 frontier city, with no great extent of trade territory secured to you, to that of a central en- trepot, with the practical monopoly of a great region behind you, whose | commerce no man can take from you.! BrieBy, sir, if this project is carried | out, it will mean for you the addition ! of half a continent for commercial pur.| poses, and the creation of a complete new tier of Northern States, with an enormous, ares of unoccupied land | with very great mineral resources, ! with a present population of 5,000,000, {but with the capacity of maintaining $0,000,000.\u201d O== would have thought that the planks in the platform on which the ing snnexatiomists received in 1891 would have disabused them of their folly.But, no, Sir Richard and Laurier resurrect their old corpse from the grave once more in 1911 and attempt te Égist it on the Canadian people with amother veil over the unsightly side of it.And still, even after September 21, they canuot keep quiet about it.ANTI-TYPHOID VACCINATION.In spite of the rather frantic efforts of the anti-vaccinationists, who, with glib asgument and heatéd assertion, unfounded in fact, have tried to make the world believe that vaccination is not a preventive of small-pox, the .| fact remains, that the practice is still bravely on the increase.The difference is that, instead of small-pox being the only diseisc treated by in- aculation, the list has been largely increased.Vaccination against typhoid is becoming a well-established practice in the American army, and it is because of the practical demonstration of its efficacy in this direction that the practice may be expected to grow in civil life.There is no.greater scourge than typhoid, which is a filth disease communicated often through milk and water supplies and against which many Aare helpless.In 1910 there were 14,000 American soldiers inoculated against this disease and among them that year there.were only six cases of typhoid and no deaths.In the rest of the army thet was unvac- cinated there were 418 cases and 32 deaths.How great the progress has been can be estimated by remembering what.happened to the United States Seventh Army Corps when it was encamped at Jacksonville in 1898.In that year out of a membership of 10,759, no less than 2,693 cases were developed, with 248 deaths.In spite of all sanitary measures.good water and inspected milk, typh- old will continue to spread, especially among the children that have not beert taught the need of care.Its great enemy is to be found in the blood of healthy humanity, which, by inoculation, may Be strengthened to resist and overcome the germs.Slowly, but surely, these facts are becoming known and appreciated, and, when the efficacy of vaccination has been thoroughly recognized, the scourge of typhoid may be banished from among us.A BRITISH VIEW OF AMBRICAN PRESS The London Times \u2018has been indulging in some pertinent criticism of the American newspaper, from which it is evident that the Thunderer is not greatly impressed with the journalism of the Western Hemisphere as an educative medium.The article is written under the caption, \u201cAmerican Journalism and the Influence of Joseph Pulitzer,\u201d and constitutes a comparison between the principal journals of the United States and Great Britain.The Times describes the American press as a whole as being extremely local in character and color.National affairs are sacrified to the country\u2019s daily budget of crime and catastrophe.with which the American journal has to contend is, in the opinion of the Times, the dlethors of so-called news.The Associated Press furnishes each paper with an average of 80,000 words a day.The result & a bewildering flood of news through which it is difficult for the newspapers to lay an intelligible course, and in such a multitude of matters, all approximately of equal importance sr insignificanse, any systematic gradation, according to values, seemed sé hopeless that the attempt has been practically abandoned.The writer goes o> to reproduce what he calls an analysis of the front page of # typical New York paper.In this he urges that news values are made subservient to sensation, saying it is difficult to believe that this lack of perspective, this daily presentment of the most trivial and often the most privately personal matters, as if they were part of the chief news of the world, could contribute to earnestness of purpose in the general public or help them to take a wholesome view of the true value of things.The conclusions to which the writer comes are as follows: \u201cMost of the London dailies deliberately address themselves to the educated, thinking classes of the country, whereas the large American papers, with exceptions, the fewness of which makes them the more honorable, address themselves to an imaginary speci men of the plaiu people.They serup- ulouwsly avoid talking a language which demands any messure of polite education for its comprehension, and the tastes to which they appeal sre what they suppose to be the tastes of the greater number of the democratic mass.\u201cThe huge circulation of Mr.Pulitxer's World and other papers seem to show that in their guess at thoes One of the greatest difficulties | tastes they do not go far amiss, but no onc is better awure than the editors of some, et least, of the great dailies that they won their circulation at the cost of ceasing to be a moral or guiding force in the community.\u201cThe public no longer expects its paper to have an intellectual personality or to siand in the relation of meator to its readers.The editorial function ha: become overlaid by the reportorial, and the reporter has grown to be a highly specialized expert lm imaginative short story writing.The arrangement, or make-up, is tike the window dressing of a shop, which appeals to the cheap clentèle by placing, not its best, but its gaud- jest wares in front.So far as intrinsic values are concerned, the ingredients which go to make up the front page of an American paper are about as fortuitous as vuddingstone.\u201d MICROBES.It really seems as though the doctors, if they were able to do it, would tent with harping on the adulteration of foed and drink, or with warning us about the awful germs that await us everywhere, they have now inaugurated & campaign against that most delectable pastime, to wit, kissing.Over inMassachusetts the other day they presented a youth on his twenty-first birthday with a gold medal, simply for the reason that he had \u201cnever kissed a girl outside of his own family.\u201d As if that were a merit! We imagine that most people who read of the awarding of the medal felt nothing but pity for the poor, unsophisticated numbskull who had wilfully missed so much in life And it is his example that the experts tell us we should follow.- The voice of the bactesiologist is solemnly raised against the kiss.If we are to heed the chill warning of science, nothing is more deadly.The Dietetic and Hygienic Gazette tells us with solmen unction that \u201cmost, if not all, of the contagious diseases have been transmitted by lip contact, and are always liable to be transmitted in that manner.\u201d Of course, atl this and much more is very dreadful and most people would not wilfully fly in the face of science, but\u2014what is to be done about it?Theimpulse for young people of opposite sexes to kiss each other is, so we are told, something as irresistible as the impulse to breathe.And the worst\u2014 os the best\u2014of it is that the kiss at its best is so spontaneous.a thing that poor humanity has never yet found time to sterilize it.Let Science frighten people as it may, we refuse to believe that kissing as an art will ever be lost to the world.LADIES' MUSICAL CLUB OF LEVIS.The

DEBTS Money to Be Deposited in Foreign Banks to the Credit of Her Creditors, Washington, Nov.22\u2014Determined to avoid giving any pretext for foreign intervention for financial \u2018 reasons, the Chinese Government has ordered all receipts from maritime customs, including the 1901 Boxer indemnities, to be deposited with-the foreign banks to the credit of China\u2019s foreign creditors.The official explanation of the purpose of the Chinese Government to live up to its foreign obligations came to the State Department to-day from the Chinese legation, which reported it to the State Department.It read : \u201cOn account of the disturbances throughout China, the postponement of the date for the November payment of these (the Boxer) indemnities has become necessary.Immediately upon the formation of the new cabinet by the Premier, Yuan Shi Kai, he gave special attention to the indemnity matter, The Inspect- or-General of the imperial maritime customs of China, who is an Englishman, has heen directed by the Cl nese Government to issue general instructions to the commissionerss at the various treaty ports to deposit ail the receipts from the maritime\u201d customs with the foreign banks located in those ports, the moneys so received to be used for the service of China's foreign debts, including the 1901 (Boxer) indemnities.\u201d The military authorities are ready to meet any reasonable demand for troops to be used in China and whether the organization selected shall be the 15th infantry, now en route from Guam to Manila.or the 7th or the 20th infantry, will depend entirely upon the time the order is received from the President for the despatch of troops.It'is estimated at the State Department that it will be for the council of foreign ministers in Peking to determine whether troops are nceded at all and if so.when and in vrhat proportion they shall be furnished by the powers interested in China.It is understood.as to this latter point, that some such agree- ment\u2014removing one threatened cause of friction\u2014has been reached as the result of the State Department's inquiry to the various foreign offices about two weks ago.Both the Chinese Government and the revolutionary leaders are desperately alarmed at the possibility of foreign intervention \u2018in their struggle.Probably it is owing to the appeals reaching minisiers from these sources, to keep foreigh troops out of China to avoid precipitating a possible massacre of all foreigners at unprotected points, that the foreign ministers are hesitating to give the word for the landing of their troops, Advances of the rebel forces, both naval and land, toward Nanking, where, it is expected, the decisive battle of the present rebellion will be fought, were reported to the Navy Department to-day by Rear-Admiral Murdock, commander-in-chief of the United States Asiatic fleet, which is looking after foreign interests in Chinese territory, Several of the rebel gunboats, which have been lying at Chinkiang, he reported, sailed today toward Nanking, doubtiess to assist in the operations against the imperial forces there.Ahout 20,000 troops are how marching toward the scene of the expected battle.The majority of these rebel troops are declared to be well drilled.The reports state that the city probably will bs defended.Great Britain, Germany and Japan each have a vessel at Nanking, and these, together with the American ships, are deemed sufficient to give adequate protection to foreign interests.POST OFFICE INSPECTOR CANXD.Toronto, Nov.22\u2014James Henderson,

Royal Rifles Meets With Deserved Recognition.- (Special to the Chronicle.) Ottawa, Nov.22~The militia conference of last week is already bearing fruit.There is reason to believe that before long steps will be taken for the active encouragement of the cadet movement by the Militia Department.It is expected that Lieut.- Colonel R.I.Gwynne, of Greniell, Sask., commanding officer of the 16th Light Horse, will be appointed to superintend the movement in the Western Provinces.Col.Gwynne, who is the organizer of the famous mounted cadets, made a great impression at the conference by his zeal and efficiency.Captain S.H.Hill.8th Royal Rifles, Quebec, who has been remarkably successful with the movement in that city, will probably receive temporary epmloyment in connection with the work in the Province of Quebec.At the conference Col.Gwynne remarked that one effect of the forcing of militia officers to pay duty on their uniforms had been that the vendors of uniform have been supplying officers with cheap German-made swords.Colonel Hughes, acting on the hint, set an investigation on foot, and discovered that the swords for troopers bought by the department have been procured from continental Europe.They are nominally made in Great Britain, but in reality are only put together there.The Minister has cancelled the orders pending and has ordered that none but swords of genuine British make be purchased.J.A.Lemay of Ottawa is a guest at the King Edward Hotel.Major T.S.Hethrington returned from Toronto yesterday.Hon.L.A.Taschereau returned from Beauce yesterday.L.R.Pelletier of Boston, Mass, is registered at the King Edward Hotel.Gaston Vermeulen de Marelacre.of Brussels, Relgium.is stopping at the King Edward Hotel.The law students of Laval University will hold their annual banquet at the Victoria Hotel this evening.Montrealers at the King Edward Hotel: S.Wears, L.Lamoureaux, L.Pageau, B.Bencit, J.Joseph, G.Gregoire, M.Binet, G.Corriveau.Arrivals at the King Edward Hotel \u2014F.Larouche, Lae St.Jean: Pau!

grand larceny case.\u201cTo be sworn on the Bible means nothing to me,\u201d declared the witness, and court attendants searched high and low for a copy of the volume sacred to the Turk.When the book of Mohammed could not be found, Ali was allowed to take oath after the fashion of those of his creed Holding up the index finger of his right hand he said: \u201cI swear by the great Allah and by the beard of his only phophet, Mohammed, to tell the truth, the whole trutl.and nothing but the truth.In failing.may I be swept off the face of the earth\u201d Ali was then permitted to give testimony

American market by Russian poultrymen, combined with an advance in the cost of poultry food here, housewives have heen enabled to cut living expenses in at least one respect by buying ducks and chickens in the local downtown markets at prices anywhere from six to ten cents.a pound cheaper than they were last year.Half a dozen big shinloads of duck have arrived here recently from Russia and sold at the wholesale rate of 14 cents a pound as against quotations of two or three cents more for the domestic bird.This cut has had a sym- ket which has also had a drooping tendency because of the apparent disinclination of poultry raisers to keep on feeding their stock on corn at $1.80 a bag.Turkeys are also lower than last year but possibly because of the near advent of Thanksgiving, the decrease in their price is not 20 marked as that in other varieties of poultry.Cook's Cotton Root Compound \"ce Dr at Vie dis FE RACY Ouox Mens On, Yoneuts, CL, pathetic influence on the chicken mar-

Building Up the Dominion of Canada\u2014Figures That Tell Great Talea Montreal, Nov.22\u2014That the Canadian Pacific Railway is doing all important work towards the building up of the Dominion pf Canads is shown by the figures with regard to the colonization operations of the rail way for this year.According to statements made yesterday the Canadian Pacific Railway since the first of the year have carried from Great Britain to this country over 150,000 new settlers, the actual figures for the ten months from Jan.1 to Oct.31 are 146,119.Putting the number of new settlers brought nto Canada during November at the conservative estimate of 5000, the figures for the year up to date climb up to over 150,000.This represents only the actual paid transportation.If the number of children carried free is taken into consideration, it is not too much to add \u201820 per cent to the figures\u2019 given, which would increase the C.P.R's colonization figures for the year to the astounding total of over 175,000.These figures are unprecedented.Never before in the history of the C.P.R.have they carried such a traffic.Not only has a new record been set, but the best previous record, that of last year, has been beaten by nearly 25000 people.Compared with the record of 1909, the difference is still greater, the increase this year being nearly 65,000, Of the 175000 new settlers brought into Canada by the Canadian Pacific Mr.R.Miller, assistant superintendent of terminals of the railway at Montreal, statts that fully Æ per cent went straight through to western Canada, 20 per cent of the rest settled in Ontario and Quebec, and the rest drifted across the border.Most of the newcomers were fairly well supplied with cash.In fact it is estimated that in ready money and personal effects, the newcomers would average $300 each, in which case they have brought into Canada with them over $40,000,000.The work involved in the transportation of these new settlers has been enormous.Since the big rush started there has hardly been 2 day when at least one special train was not despatched from St.Lawrence ports carrying the late arrivals to their destination.As a matter of fact nearly 500 special trains have been despatched from the east in connection with this traffic by the C.P.R.this year.Allowing ten cars to the train, this means that it would take a train 75 miles long to transport all of the new settlers brought into Canada by the C.P.R.this year.SPECIAL REDUCTION Misses\u2019 and Children\u2019s Blanket Coats in Blue and Grey at 25 per cent off regular price.son's
