learnt here last night, the stories which have appeared in Montreal papers with regard to the treatment received hy a number of Russian immigrants who have been in the city and district for some time and many of whom have now taken .the road to Montieal are grossly ex- sggerated.According to a Montreal story some sixty of these men reached there yesterday with heart-rending tales of misfortunes alleged to have been enceuntered here and between Quebec and Montreal.It was said that they had been robbed of whatever money they had when they arrived here: that they were half starving and that many of (hem had in- œufficient clothing.Also that four of them had committed suicide on the road after leaving here.Yet another charge was that those men, numbering sbowt two hundred, had been here without work since May.The bulk of these men arrived here on May l4th, and 19th.That they were overcharged by the employment bureaus is admitted.The burean which\u2019 seems to bave been the chers offender is said to be run by a man] named A.Damovrs.These bureaus, which are licensed, are only allowed to charge a fee of one dollar, but it seems that they charged the Russians from $3.50 up.on the ground that they required something for expenses such as tickets for sending the men to railway construction, etc.A number of these men were employed for some six weeks or so by Mr.M.Connolly, who is the contractor engaged in the construction of the Quebec aqueduct at Loretteville.At the most, it is said, that the employment bureau could only claim the sum of $1.60, the details being a fee of one dollar, fifty cents for sleeping accommodation for two nights, and ten cents for train fare to Lorrttevilie.But the contractor stopped lour dollars of their wages.Whether a sum of two dollars was included on this and cabrged up as having been due to the sub-contractor is not quite clear.Mr.Charles Smith, who is acting lor the Russians, said over the telephone last night that he had sscceed- ed in getting a refund of the excess money charged in the case of the Russians who had remained ower, and that he hoped to be able to do the same for the others who had gone from here to Montreal.It had been rendered difficult, however, as the Rustians spoke neither French nos English and there was the pusmbility that some of them might get paid twice over.He had received a letter from Montreal today from Mr.Alexander, a Russian {rom Ontario, who has heen hedping the Russians, asking him to act for the rest.While here the imniigrants were looked af- ger to a certain extent hy a man from East Angus, and Mr.Smith does not credit sensational stories from Montreal, though he adniits overcharging on the part of the bureau and says the Russians became disgusted, posibly because of their comparative helpless ness.ONE MAN ONE VOTE WINNING IN ENGLAND Londan, July 14\u2014 The hill to abal- ish plural voting at elections in the British Isles passed its third reading in the House of

seems the only hope that Sir Edward Grey, the British Foreign Secretary, is able to hold out.In a statement in the House of Commong tonight he said that mere words were not likely to affect the situation jand that it would be most difficult for the European Powers to resort to force to impose peace, RUSSIA DISREGARDED.Neither Servia nor Greece has paid any attention to Russia\u2019s proposal that they cease hostilities.They appear determined to negotiate peace with Bulgaria ouly on the field, without intervention by any third party, land, unless Bulgaria proves amendable «it is believed that an advance will be {made upon Sofia to enforce acceptance of the Servo-Greek terms.Serious fighting for the time being is suspended, but the advance of the Turkish and Roumanian troops continues without opposition.A Belgrade report says that the Servians on Sunday captured an important posr- tion eight miles west of Kustendil.According to the Athens correspondent of the Daily Telegraph, Greece and Servia signed a secret treaty last May, binding them to prosecute a war, which was then foreseen, with Bu gari until the Bulgarians acquiesced in the territorial arrangements laid down in the treaty.By these arrangements the eastern boundaries of Greece would be extended to the Mesta River, considerably to the east of Drama, and Servia would have access to the Aegean Sea at two points.LUNATIC LIVES ON CHURCH WINE HIDDEN UNDER ALTAR IN LONDON, ONT, ANGLICAN CHURCH TWO WEEKS.Loadun, Ont, July 14\u2014Mary Connor, aged 30, who escaped from the London Asylum.two weeks ago, and was supposed tn have made her way to Pontiac, Michigan, was found hiding under the altar in St.David's Anglican Church.She declared she had lived on the communion wine ever since wandering into the church, when she found the door open.The woman had taken ~f her clothes and was using them for a pil- luw.She declared she stayed beneath the altar during church services, and also during an Orangemen\u2019s meeting, and that when she moved.the Orangemen, alarmed by the sound, made a search of the hall, fearing that a spy was in.* The police all over the country had been searching for Miss O'Connor, and a large reward has been offered for her return.ROCHFORT'S CAT DIES FROM GRIEF.Paris, July 14\u2014Henri Rochefort's famous cat, Kroumir, who accompanied him everywhere, did not

Pankhurst, the leader of the suffragettes, and Miss Annis Kennedy, one of the most ardent of the militants, are again in the hands of the authorities.Against the orders of the court they appeared at a meeting of the Women's Soeial and Political Union this afternoon, where Mra, Pankhurst announced that she would die rather than submit to the government.STARTS FREE FIGHT.The police undertook to arrest both women.Mrs.Pankhurst fled frum the building and attempted to make her escape in a taxicab.She was pursued by a detective who eventually captured her.The arrest of Miss Kennedy precipitated a free fight in which weil dressed men and women engaged in hand to hand fighting with the police.Umbrellas and sticks were freely used The police succeeded in forcing Miss Kennedy into anautomobile and drove her to Holloway jail Several other arrests were made.Sylvia Pankhurst, who was released last night from Holleway jail because of her hunger strike, courted re-arrest by addressing an enthusiastic meeting of militants at Bromley tonight.She said she intended to disregard the terms of \u2018the license and openly defy the government on every possible occasion.Much surprise was occasioned among the suffragettes that no attempt was made to arrest her, NORTH GREY ELECTS.A CONSERVATIVE MR.CAMERON 18 CHOSEN FOR ONTARIO LEGISLATURE BY 278 MAJORITY, Owen Sound, Ont., July 14\u2014By a majority of 278 North Grey today elected Colin S.Cameron to represent it in the iegislature.It was the vote in the town of Owen Sound that defeated Mr.John MeQuaker, the Liberal candidate, as the town gave Mr.Cameron a majority of 290, while in the rural parts Mr.MeOuglisc bad a majority of 12.SIR JAMES SPEAKS, Toronto, July 14\u2014On hearing the veturns from North Grey tonight Sir James Whitney said: \u2014\u201cIt is a magnificent victory and a very far-rcach- ing one, indeed.\u201d Hon.W.J.Hanna (over the long distance telephone from his home in Sarnia):\u2014\"The electors of North Grey did what anyone would have expected.They were fully acquainted with the issues and the work of the government, and the hypocrisy of the leaders of the Liberal party, who went into North Grey to agitate the elcet- ors.There was no mistaking, from the time the electors got busy, what they were going to do.\u201d Mr.N.W.Rowell made this statement on the result: \u201cMy information convinces me that the result in North Grey was due to open combination between the Whitney government and the liquor interests, with unlimited financial resources at their disposal.For the sake of Mr McQuaker, who was an exceptionally fine type of candidate, and the workers whe stood so valiantly by him, I regret the result.The loss of the seat, however, will have its compensations if it helps to awaken the peaple of the province to the | undoubted fact of an offensive and defensive alliance between the Whitney government and the liquor interests.When the

Lower Town, wheu-e sresk thiéfentered the office and saatched.à bag containing $320 in French goid and notes from the counter of the brokerage office of Mr.James Macnider, corner of St.Peter and Antoine streets, and succeeded in getting away with his plunder undiscovered.Neverthelss, hz was shortly afterwards arrested and $309 of the amonut stolen recovered.Mr.Macnider had previously exchanged the French money for Canadian currency, and after he had accommodated the parties with the exchange, wen into his back office to put away some of the money in his safe, leaving a small bag on the outer office counter containing $320 in French gold and paper money.He had hardly turned his back when a sneak thief entered his office and seing the bag on the conuter made off with it unobserved.Mr.Macnider on returing to the office from the back room, was surprised to discover the money gone, and was at a loss to know how it could have disappeared:i, as ne saw no person enter or les ce, or even hear a footstep in the office.He immediately telephoned for Detective Walsh, who hastened to the scene, and was informed of the tob bery, but not even the least clew could be given to guide him in apprehending the thief.Whiskey Led to Capture of Thief.Detective Walsh, devining that the thief might be addicted to liquor drinking, immediately started in to hung his game.and after visiting sev- cral saloons in the Lower Town with- aut success, proceeded along St.Paul street, and on entering one saloon on that street learned that u stranger had been there offering French gold in payment for a drink.The man did not stay lung, however, but from there cntered Mr.Gooduess' store, where he bought a hat, for which he paid a with 20-franc gold piece.But even here Detective Walsh failed to get his man, but by dint of inquiry found that he had made inquiries abuut the departure of C.P.R.trains, which caused the detective to rush to the Palais Station, place two police officers at the ticket office wicket, and arrange with the ticket clerk that saculd any persons offer a French gold coin in payment for a ticket, to give him in charge of the police.He then rc- turned to the St.l'aul street saloon to try and obtain à xood description of the man he was after.and had fhardiy tank his deparcue, when the individual accompanied by a hobo companion, in a happy frame of mind, sauntered up from the docks and re-entered the saloon.\u201che properit> vil vated ty hail Detective Walsn without sucecss; telephined the nearest police station, and two constables arriving in answering to the summons, were tnld to place the man under arrest, as Detective wanted him for robbery, The police arrested the man, who was later with his companion, con- veved to No.Police Station, and on being searched.$309 of the stolen money was found in his possession.In the meantime Detective Walsh recogtized the prisoner as Jack Reilly, an individual who was arrested some 19 months ago in Quebec for robbery, and condemned tO serve two years in the penitentary.Reilly\u2019 made no attempt to hide his identity, inform- (Continued on Page Eight) mt eme DETECTIVES ARE IN QUARANTINE, THEIR MAN FREE FOLLOWED HIM ACROSS THE ATLANTIC, ONLY TO LAND AT GROSSE ISLE.\u2019 \u2014 After a chase from St.Petersburg to Hamburg, and across the ocean un the Canada liner Witsekind, two Russian detectives who were ia pursuit of Jan Zukligi, a Secislist auspect, are chafing today in the.quarantine at Grosse Isle, whers 335 of the Wittekind\u2019s passengers are detained for smallpox which broke out on the trip across.The rest of the passengers, which include the man shadowed by the detectives were landed at this port Sunday and the vessel proceeded to Montreal to land her cargo.FOLLOWED ACROSS OCEAN.It is said that Zuldigi, who had been a political prisoner, and who was pardoned about a year ago, was suspected of being once more in league with the Socialists, and several traps were set for his capture.It soon became necessary for him to flee the country, and he escaped across the German border, with two government agents always at his heels.Booking passage on the Wittekiad only the day before she started, Zukligi thought himself secure, as he was 1th over twelve hundred steerage immigrants.The two detectives boarded the boat just before she left Notre Dame, Holland, which is her last European port of call.It was of course impossible for them to arrest the man once he had escaped the boundaries of the Russian Empire, as he was wanted for a political offence, but the sleuths had been detailed to shadow him wherever he should go after reaching Canada.On the trip out, a little boy contracted a disease which the medical examiner at Grosse Isle pronouneed smallpox, and -the entire section of the steerage in which the child was, : was put into quarantine for an in- defirrite length of time.The man wanted was lodged in the opposite end of the ship and thus escaped.FOURTEEN KILLED AT LOS ANGELES SEVERAL TORONTO PERSONS ARE KILLED WHEN ELEC-' TRIC TRAINS COLLIDE.1 Los.Angeles, July 14\u2014Fourteen | persons are dead as the result of the

VIEW.In an amusing artiele written for the London National Review Professor Stephen Leacock of McGill University discusses the situation produced by the Senate\u2019s rejection \u2018of the Borden Naval Bill.\u201cA group of eighty-geven elderly gentlemen, the most vigorous of whom can jüst nicely get into his motor without help from the chauffeur, have smashed their walking sticks through the windows of the constitution.After which the Senate, like a coon, has retired up its tree ssarling.For the huntér below the problem mow is whether to shoot it und stuff jt for its skin, or to find some means of stuffing it without shooting it; the disappointing thing being that it was supposed 10 have been stuffed already.\u201d Mer.Leacock thinks that at first sight the situation with regard to the ships is very dispiriting and it appears quite wrongly ss if the advance of Imperial Unity had received à serious check.He continues: \u2018On our side of the water the patriotic Canadian hangs his head to blush.He recalls with shame the plaudits of the British Press six months ago.He remembers Canada enthusiastically depicted as a Viking 's daughter, a sea-lion, as # sea-horse, as 4 sea- anything.Now it turns out that the Dominion is not a sealion but a mud turtle and has crawled back onto its back.The sea-lion has a cub that cen\u2019t swim.The Viking's daughter is scea-sick.[t appears that she came from Alberta and has never been off the ranch in her life.\u201d After reviewing the consultations with the British Admiralty and subsequent events, Mr.Leacock says that last **midwinter found us busy in oue Par- It is not pleasant to know that when this chip steams away she will be carrying with her Cinada\u2019s contribution to Imperial defence in the shape of this piece of silver, and that men will be able to point to it and say, *\u2018 That is all which Canada has given.\u201d\u201d It will fit ia with the words uttered by the captain of a liner the other day to a Canadian who was talking of the Empire.He said, \u2018\u2018 You cannot talk of the Empire.You have refused to dé your share in defending it.\u201d The situstion is summed up by the Standard in the following words :\u2014 - \u2018Pieces of silver have played important parts in the history of the world.Our Lord was sold for thirty pieces of silver.Canada's desire, and wishes, and expressed intentions have been sold for the pieces of silver which the Laurier Liberals hoped to gain by forcing an election and regaining power, when they could again dip their hands into the silver bags of the country.The sale has taken place; the world has seen it and the result; but it fails to appreciate that the mile and the result are both repudiated by the people of Canada.And the Laurier Liberals are as far off from the silver bags us ever.They must feel inclined, like Judas, to go out and hang themselves in mortification.1f they don\u2019t the people of Canada will do it for them, metaphorically, at the next election.\u201d THE TRAGEDY OF BULGARIA.Rage and disappointment among the Bulgarians at their loss of practically all of the fruits of their victorious war against Turkey could be and was foreseen at the time of the armistice and the conference of the ambassadors in London.Bulgaria had becn up to that time, and was again after hostilities had been renewed, hearing the brunt of the fighting aguinst the common enemy.The other ailied forces were doing well whatever fell to them in the division of the campaign work, and the Greeks were operating on ses as well as on land.But the geographical as well as the military necessities of the case had thrown upon the Bulgarians the greater part of the heat and burden of the day.And their preparedness for the liament, sitting up all night on our beaches, still saving the Empire, with hot water bottles at our feet and pneumatic cushions at our back.The gun.room of our new men of war was nothing to it for hardship.Then came the extreme agony of the parliamentary closure, announced as the last awful act demanded by Imperial interests, and once again the Empire was saved.Then quite unexpectedly the British observer heard of the existence of the Canadian Senate and learned that the emergrney vote would not be voted at all: so that the final result of the whole affair, consultations and delegations, obstructions and closures and all the rest of it appears as nothing.a hig circular.round nothing.\u201d But, in spite of all this, the writer does not think | that the broad current of the Imperial movement is arrested in its flow.These above-mentioned events\u2019 are but the impression on the surface.In his opinion the whole problem of naval defence and linperial or- | ganization is but a relatively new thing.British! visitors are apt to judge Canada from gubernatorial | circles at Ottawa and the consecrated plutoeracy of Montreal snd the large cities.Among the merchant princes who fill the foreground nf Canadian secnery the Empire has for many years past been very much a la mode.Imperialism seemed to he vaguely synonymous with tariff protection against the manufactures of the United States.with the flotation of loans ia the London market and the distribution of birthday honors from the hands of a grateful sovereign.These were things of a noturious righteousness.The delighted visitor, who had expected lug cabins and snowshoes, found himself among Botticelli pictures and directoire dresses and a strained and anxious atmosphere of Imperial discussion.\u2019 \u2018But in quieter and lowlier cireles, let us say among the farmsteads of Western Ontario, the lumber shanties of the Georgian Bay.the barbershops of Toronto, the \u2018Empire\u2019 meant at best a brand of ¢igar, a hotel or « new form of celluloid collar.Among the great mass of the people of Canads nobudy thought about the Imperial problem because nobody knew there was one.(\u2018ertain great underlying in- stinets there were, it is true: race memories, uncon- struggle, which they had evidently anticipated for soine years, was shown in their fine equipment and in the mobility and training of their troops.The tactics, as well as the fine soldierly qualities displayed by the army in its victorious attacks commanded the admiration of the world.With that fine army largely decimated Bulgaria found herself at the close of the war practically where she was at the beginning.In the division of the spoil she got nothing which anybody capable of appraising values could think would compensate her for her expenditure of blood and treasure.And she must have found, what it had also been possible to foresee, that sume of her allies were capable of playing into the hands of the great powers of Europe for their own advantage and for the purpose of depriving Bulgaria lof a primacy among the states of the Balkan country.The time was surely one for coolness and patience and for the diplomacy which knows how to wateh and wait.But Bulgaria, smarting under a sense of loss aud injustice, was \u2018incapable of these qualities.Whether her king and her statesmen really hoped to conduct a victorious campaign against the other Balkan states or whether the impetuosity of a still primi- i tive people forced them into another war before their troops had recovered from the previous hard campaign is not known.The results of such a campaign as the latter one could have been foreseen as they are now being told.Out of the mass of conflicting despatches of the past fortnight it is possible to see that Bulgaria has been steadily getting the worst of it.And the end, even if she could have overwhelmed ail of her late allies, would have been the same in the last analysis.Clearly it is not the policy of the great European states to let Bulgaria take and hold a primacy in the Balkan region.Her whirlwind campaign against the Turk proved her too formidable for that.Bulgaria may be charged with a madness of war.But it is a sublime madness which will earn her respect in various quarters.Comment of The Press | séious but not forgotten, ready to be called to the sur.| face again.But these things were typified, lot us sey, only by an ancient musket that hung here and there over a stone fireplace: by a fainily legend that\u2018 recalled the long trail of the loyalist through unhrok.' en woods and silver lakes, carrving a flag into the\u2018 wilderness: or hy the memories of the immigrani who eould still hear in fancy.ax be litted his head a mo.\u2019 ment from his labor in the golden harvest, the long, thunder of the sea upon the broken shores of Britain.| Here are things that, when you conjure them up he! fore the lighted eves of the Canadian people, wiil show you that the passion of the unforgotten islands is still burning in the blood.\u201d ! But these things did not enter into the political arena where politics was fast becoming a mere trade.Now there is a change.Empire and Imperial problems are becoming.or have already became, things of real meaning and vital interest in this country-\u2014 that is for the ordinary citizwn.Even though the game was played as a party matter in the House and the \u2018\u2018aged and forgotten'' partizan Senate came out of its cupboard \u2018\u2018like the bad old witch in the fairy tale\u2019 to work its evil will, yet the debate has not been without effect.As for the Senate, Mr.Leacock eoncludes by saying that its action \u2018is the Nemesia of our own political aim.It is poetic justice visited on our evil-doing.Liberals and Conservatives combined, we made our Senate, not a superior council of the nation, but a refuge of place-hunting politiciaus and à reward of partizan adherence.\u2019 PIECES OF SILVER.The Kingston Standard calls attention to the rac that the Dreadnought given by New

liberally plastered.But when next day nearly all the \u2018hundred or more dope fiends in the prison were groaning and limping with pains in the back, and all those already reaed had relapsed seriously, were still firm in their faith in belladonna plasters, Dr.Brackett and Jailer Woodall began to scratch their heads dubiously.When they also noticed that none of the prisoners that had been plastered with the belladonna cared to eat his breakfast that morning, they khew that somehow they had been fooled.No dope fiend wastes time in eating when he can get \u201chop.\u201d A little investigation disclosed that the first prisoner who obtsined x belladonna plaster had taken it off his back and steeped it in water, thus mixing a cocktail which, containing as it did, quite a quantity of atro- phine, gave him what the \u201chop head\u201d loves to feel, namely a \u201ckick\"\u2014a thrill for his jangled nerves, The other \"hypos\u201d discovered his E.W.GILLETT COMPANY

picture presents itsels te the mind\u2014the picture of the Jews, in exile in Babslon, far from home! \u2018and cherished friends\u2014among the tyrant and the stranger.In the 13h Psalm oi David\u2014the | Royal Singer tells us in language pa- thette of how the remembrance of | their native country stirred the hearts nf those captive people nf Israel.Let Sermon at Grosse Isle the chosen people of God.languishing | depth of so many fover-stricken sons \u2018and daughters of Erin.That Cross is the symbol of another Cross, rough and coarse ané weoden, which wit- nes our Redemption by Christ's wcred blood.Through the lips of this great Granite Cross that first holy Cross speaks vo us today and telle of the deep red drops of saving Blood that trickled down its sacred side.It tells us oi the sanctity that immortalized that Cross which felt the touch of Christ's sacred members as He lay thereon in agony.It tells us of the consecration that Cross received from the imprint of the hands and feet and secred thorn-crowned Head that were pressed so close to its favored wood for three long hours.By all the treasured memories of that first world-re- deeming Cross, this great Memorial Cross cries out to us today and bids us, for the sake of Christ and His eternal love, be mindful of our dead.Those that lie here are, sn to say, sanctiôeé in their death, for their sufferings were intense.and their torments of soul and body deep and lasting.Ia Christ's abiding Faith had they ever fived.For His dear sake, and His alone, they endured here sui- jrormén unparalleled.The bitterest Eloquent : Erin\u2014sweetest spot this earth's vast domsin\u2014the spot they called their home.Oh, how those fever-strickes sufferers must have sat here and wept and gazed with eyes all tear-flooded and hearts all torn with grief\u2014gazed.gazed.out across the broad track of this mighty river, back over the path that had brought them here, to catch, perchance, one glimpse more of Erin's green-clad, eun-kissed shores, one glance more before they bowed their heads and died.1f Memory could but recall to us the plaintive cries that went up from the fever-polluted lips of Erin's stricken children who died upon this Island, and now rests beneath its sod, would we not hear once again, with but little change, the heart-gripping words of the Psalm of David portraying the lamentations of the ex- Hed sons and daughters of Juda upon Babylon's banks.Listen.and perhaps, Memory will touch once again with Fancy's fairy fingers the long neglected chords of bygone sorrows.and, from out the silent, cloistered halls of the mystic Past will resound ; again the saddening dirge of the | stricken pilgrims of Erin as they lay dying on the St.Lawrence's couse- crated shores.\u201cUpon the banks of the St.Lawrence.there we sat and wept; when we remcbreded thee, fair Erin: Upon the shores of this land we lay down our instruments.for they that met us in our exile required of us the words of song: and they that met us, said: Sing ve to us a hymn of the songs | NO!
