OF VOTE.London, July 15\u2014With the exception of two small collieries\u201d in the Rhondda district, employing about 800 men, all the coal mimes n Soutn \u2018Wales, from which comes the coal for the navy, were idle today, and the miners, despite the action of the government in bringing the industry under the Munitions and War Act, and the entreaties of the responsible labor leaders and their executive council, decided by a, vote of 180 to 113 mot to accept the recommendations to continue work day by day until an arrangement could be concluded.The delegates voting for the strike represented 88950 men, and those against the strike 41,500.Thus, ai- though opinion is divided, the extremists are in the large majority.The eanference, omc to meet the.president of the of Trade, Mr, Walter Runsimas, tomorrow, to discuss the situation.; General business on the Cardiff Coal Exchange bas ceased owing oo - Gov \"requisition for - ratty et à avaitite\u2019 cout\u201d sure plies, while shippisg.and railways which depend on the mines also had mage to.say today.There is a gen- 1 impression, however, that the strike will not last long but that the men, after a short holiday, perhaps over the week-end, will return to work.All the responsible labor leaders of the country are opposed to the strike, and while it is hard to see how the government can enforce the penalties of the Munitions Act, it is believed the men will be influenced by the fact that they are opposing an act which was passed for the safety of the country.The strike has been forced by the men of the Aberdere valley, who are strong Syndicalists, and have decided that the present was a good time to force the government to take over the mines.This policy has been advocated by the Independent labor party, which is more extreme than the regular labor party, and one of the ltaders of which is J.Keir.Hardy, whose parliamentary constituency in- eludes the Aberdare valley.Asked in the House of Commons today what steps, if any, had been ken to suppress the organs of the independent labor party, Premier Asquith replied that the question of increasing the powers conferred by the defence of the Realm Act was being considered.Tribunal Appointed.London, July 15\u2014An official announcement made this evening, says: \u201cThe Minister of Munitions has appointed a general munitions Aribunal for Wales and Monmouthshire, as vfollows: Chairman Robert Wallace, King's Counsel Counsel, assessors, Sir Griffith Thomas, representative of the employers, and Councillor Griffiths, representative of the work people.\u201d \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 PORT ARTHUR MEN ACCUSED OF TREASON Pot Arthur, Ont, July 15.\u2014Baraey Bell, Fred Volkman and Benjamin Remshaw, who were arrested yesterday on a charge of treason, in that they assisted alien Canada, were remanded to July 23 whep they appeared before Magistrate Doble this morning.Bail was refus- | ed.No evidence was taken, enemies to leave! \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 BRITAIN TO LIMIT EXPORT OF COTTON GOVERNMENT IS AVERSE TO PLACING IT ON CONTRA | BAND LIST.> London, July 15.\u2014The British government hopes very shortly to\u2019 limi the export of cotton to neutral countries to the precise amount of actua! need.The Marquis of Crewe, Lord Presi: dent of the Council and Liberal Leader in the House of Lords, made an an nouncement to.this effect in the Upper House this afternoon.The was made in reply to a serieg of ques tions by Baron Charnwood Yegarding the supply of cotton and other mates: ial through neittral countries to Germany, and whether the government had found that the measures taken since March last were effective.9 \u2018The real question, he thought, was whether it was advisable to add cotton to the contraband list.On that question there had been a number of misunderstandings and misapprehen sions and some of them, the speaker said, undoubtedly obtained not only in this country but in neutral countries.So far as could be ascertained, the Lord President of the Counéil continued, the naval measure taken to prevent fresh supplies of cotton from reaching Germany had been successful.The government hoped by continual friendly negotiations to improve the position progressing toward what must be their main purpose; namely, to limit the exports to those neutral countries to the precise am- count of their actual needs calculated on the average imports which they had employed at home during the last few years.\u201cIn the United States,\u201d said the Marquis, \u201cthe placing of cotton on the contraband list would cause no small amount of alarm.At present we stand better in instructed public opinion in the United States than our enemies, and therefore, unless it is clear that a change of this kind is absolutely necessary, the government is averse to taking action which would be regarded by a particular interest in the southern states of America as being unfriendly.\u201d ENDEAVORED TO POISON HIS THREE CHILDREN.Chatham, Ont, July 15.\u2014George Winters, aged 55, the proprietor of a grist mill at Bothwell was arrested today charged with attempting to murder three of his children, girls aged seven, five and two, by giving them strychnine.The man, it is alleged, afterward tried to take his own life by poisoning.He is in a critical eondi- tion and all three children are also seriously ill.The man was arrested at 2 o'clock this afternoon in a bush | near Bothwell, where he had sought i refuge.The only explanation aug- gested is that the man was in financial | difficulty.(UNSWEETENED) CORDON\u2019S OLD TOM CIN GORDON\u2019S SLOE GIN GORDON\u2019S LONDON DRY GIN eo PV 411 100 Che Qu chee Chronicleis.of Csawe\u2019s.stmement: HUNS - London, July 16, 4.14 a.m.\u2014The Financial News today displays with great prominence reports \u201cfrom quarters in close touch with German sources of information\u201d that Germany is making \u201ctentative peace proposals\u201d through the United States.Abandoning for the moment their attempt to outflank Warsaw from the south, the Germans, probably under Field Marshal Von Hindenburg, who is reported to have said a few days ago that he would shortly astonish the world, have renewed their attack on the Polish cs)ital from the north.They have not only captured a large number of prisoners south of Kolno, according to the report issued by Berlin today, but have occupied Przasynsz, a fortified town fifty miles north of Warsaw, which was taken by Von Hindenburg in his great drive from East Prussia last winter, but was retaken by the Russians in their counter offensive.à - This claim is partly confirmed by the Russian ici report issued yesterday, which stated that the Russians in the face of strong German forces withdrew to their second line of entrenchments.This move on the part of the Germans has taken the military critics completely by surprise.It was generally supposed that General Von Mackensen would, after being strengthened, continue his attempt to reach the Lublin-Cholm Railway, thus forcing the evacuation of Warsaw.But, as in all their operations, the Germans have done the unexpected.The new offensive will probably be general and extend from the Baltic around the East Prussian border to the Vistula, west of Warsaw, for all the Russian troops in this section must be kept busy to prevent them from concentrating at the point where the Germans hope to break through.This is the second time Field Marshal Von Hindenburg has tried this.His last effort, while it freed East Prussia of the Russians, cost the Germans an immense number of men and very nearly involved them in disaster owing to the muddy condition gf the ground.Now, however, there are only bag-spads or tack 6 joùds to-contend with, but it is possible that the Germans have built railways to their northern front, as they have done in Central Poland.In Frante the Argonne continues to be the scene of the hard- + est fighting, but of the operations here, as elsewhere in the west, the official accounts are as contradictory as usual.At any rate, no great rovement has been undertaken and no change in the line that could be recognized on an ordinary map has occurred.Confirmation was received tonight from General Sir lan Hamilton, of the success for which some days the Allies were reported to have achieved on the Gallipoli Peninsula.According to this report two lines of Turkish trenches were captured together with 400 prisoners.The Turks, on the other hand, claim to have repulsed the Allies\u2019 attacks.As anticipated, progress against the Turks is very.slow owing to the natural and strongly fortified positions which they hold.But British military authorities express satisfaction with the gain of an occasional line of trenches, relying on breaking the morale of the Turks and the exhaustion\u2019 of their supply of ammunition.Germany's eagerness to have Rumania allow the passage of ammunition through that country to Turkey is taken to mean that the supply is running short.MOTHER GER SAME SCOTCHED TRIED TO OBTAIN INFORMATION CONCERNING BRITISH NAVAL

CAPITAL FROM NORTHERN SIDE a other German spy fas been put to death in England, after having been convicted by court martial.He was Robert Rosenthal, who was arrested in London early in June and confesses, it is alleged, to the officials of Scotland Yard that he had been sent to England by the German Admiralty to obtain information concerning British naval matters.The official announcement of the execution of the sentence of the court martial, given out here tonight says: \u201cRobert Rosenthal, who on the court martial charge of espionage, sixth of July was tried by a general was found guilty and sentenced to death.The sentence was duly confirmed and was carried ou this morning.\u201d Rosenthal, when arrested in London early in June had a passport which had been issued at the American, Embassy in Berlin.He admitted, however, that he was not an American citizen, and secured the passport by swearing falsely.Ambassador Page at London, in reporting the case to the Stete Department at Washington.said stories were current in London to the effect that Rosenthal in his confession had charged that Captain Von Prieger of the German Admiralty office, had a complete equipment for lssuing frau Zurich Switz: July 15\u2014It is becoming clearer that Germany has called up her last reserves and that every available man is being sent to the fighting line.Germans forty-five years old residing in Switzerland have now been called to the colors.A typical case is that of a German 42 years old, living in Basel, Who had never been a soldier, but was called a month ago.A few days ago his family received a letter from the Russian front, where he had been sent after à fortnight's military training.The doctors refuse hardiy anyone.A German in Zurich who had lost four toes on one foot was declared fit for service.Such men are used to guard the lines of communication, which liberates more robust men for service at the front.Germany has every available man in uniform and can no longer make good the wastage.Every thing now depends on the last desperate effort to burst through the Allies lines.That attempt is now being prepared and is expected to take place before the end: of the month.\u2018 ' The man makes the circembtances and is spiritually as well us economically ot artifcer of his own fortune.* Dawson «ev see creas unsettled with showers or

depositors in the Dominion Trust Company, numbering five thousand, and covering amounts totalling a million dollars, bave been thrown out by liquidator Andrew Stewart, who is now in charge at the former Dominion Trust headquarters in this city.Me.Stewart has segregated the depositors in, three, groups, and objects to paying any of them.\u2018He declines, on the advice of his counsel, to admit that any of them rank as creditcss of the company in any sense, and to prove otherwise the depositors case will have to be taken to the courts.For this purpose, E.P.Davis, K.C., who was retained some months ago by the provincial government in the matter, will at once appeal to the supreme Court, Test cases, for the purpose of determining the rights of depositors, will probably be carried to the Privy Couacil.Many of the depositors are penniless, and the gov- tion.The total amount of depostors claims in British Cclumbia is $675,000.The balance is chiefly owing to persons in eastern Canada.The liquidators, in refusing the claims, relies on the Birkbeck Bank case in London, where for many yeats a concern which finally went to the well received deposits without any legal right to do so.During

In England Whey use rum and the French resort bo absiæthe.Ia other words, therefore, ia the terrible bayonet charges they speak of with dread, the men mast be doped before they start.\u201d In this war the French or English poldier who has been killed in a bayonet charge gave his life to protect his tome and country.For his supreme exit he had prepared himself by months of discipline.Through the Winter in the trenches he has endus- ed sheils, disease, snow, and ice.For months he had been separated from Ms.wife, children, friends\u2014 all those be most loved.When the order to sharge came it was for them he gave his Me, that against those who des- proyod Belgium thay might preserve pbir home, might have to enjoy ce.Mies ams denies him the trodit of his sacrifice.She strips him of.hesor and courage.She tells h:s * Your father did not die for f ot for Ragland, or for you;

but, onmoved by his ill fortune, he conducted the first performance of \u2018Iolanthe\u2019 that night.\"\u2014London News.OILS.ETC London, July 15\u2014Calcutta linseed, July-August, 53s 94.Linseed oil, 26s.Sperm oil, £28, ;

Britain is concerned, and the campaign in the Gallipoli Peninsula is waged more against Germany than against Turkey, for if the straits are forced Russia will be able to import munitions with which to disable Austria, and after that Germany.The chants of hate against England are merely one proof that the two great antagonists are Britain and Germany.Proof of German hatred of Britain and of the plan of the Kaiser to deprive her of possessions before the war began is suppli ed in a recently published book, \u201cThe Near Fast From Within,\u201d the author of which remains anonymous, He was apparently a confidental agent of the German Foreign Office, who is vouched for by Cassel and Co.According to his statement, the Kaiser made a proposal to the Czar of Russis more than a year before the present war began, which advocated an alliance between Russia and Germany against Great Britain, the immediate object being the neutralization of the Buez Canal.he Ctar tefused to enter into the plot, and showed himself not only & loyal admirer of the British Empire, but a ruler who would not for the.sake of # new empire disturb the peace of Europe.Flattering the Csar.When the Kaiser's daughter became the wife of the present Duke of Brunswick the Czar was à guest of the German Emperor, and was made to feel that he was the most valued and honored of all the rulers who apeared on this occasion.In bidding him farewell, the Kaiser rose to great histrionic heights, and, it is said convinced the Czar of his undying friendship, According to the author, the Czar was nervous, as he \u2018s at all publie functions, and thus un- conscionsly gave the Kaiser the impression that he was a man of weak and timid character.He calculated that he might make him a pawn in the game againat Britain, and so a month or two later he sent him a letter in which he began by appealing to the Czar as a lover of peace.He assured him that the tranquility of Europe was disturbed by British ine trigne, and that it remained for the Czar in association with the Kaiser to take action that would remove the cause of trouble, and usher Europe into a century of peace.The Kaiser's Scheme.He said that England was only waiting for an opportunity to annex Egypt, and in the meantime was doing her best to entangle the Sultan of Turkey, whom she suported because of the old enmity between Russia and Turkey.England was also said to be secretly supporting Bulgaria, and to be encouraging Ferdinand in the hope that some day he would become Eastern Emperor, with Byzantium as his capital.The Kaiser pointed out that if the British plot should succeed, it would speil the ruin of Russia, and would deprive her forever of à southern outlet on the sea, Therefcre the Kaiser suz- gested that Germany and Turkey should take joint action against Britain in Egypt.aml that Russia should remain quiescent, her reward being polsesion of the Strait of Bosphorous and the Dardanelles.Thus would the age-lang deeam of a Russian por: on the south be secured, and her future prosperity guaranteed.The Plot Thickens.(Now, should Russia see her own interest and consent to enter into an alliance with fhe Sultan, co-operating with him and with Germany in an action tending to neutralize the Suez Canal, and to hand it over to a European commission, which would be entrusted with the task of preventing it from ever becoming a military base for any other than the Turkish army, she might obtain in exchange | the neutralization of the strait for all owers with the exception of herself.en these desirable consummations were attained, continued the astonishing dcument, Constantinople would remain the residence of the Sultan, but de placed also under European control, while the capital of Turkey would be tranelerred to Prusa, on the Asiatic side of the Dardanelles.Thus Russia would become the sole mistress of the Black Sea, and find herself able to control entirely the policy of the Balkan States.She might in time annex Bulgaria, and she would hold Serbia in check.At the same time, England being put out of the running, the establishmen: of a permanent peace in the Balkan Peninsula, which was next to impossible as things stood, would be in a fair way to become accomplished.Rebuked by the Czar.Before making this proposal to the Czar, the Kaiser had hade arrangements with Turkey to the effect that while the Suez Canal would be put nominally under a European commission, it would be really under.German control; and the author of the book tells us that Wilhelm had gone so far as to have secured German plans for the refortifications of the canal.If his infamous suggestions had been accepted by the Czar, the present war would have burst forth a year earlier, and the allies woulg not have been the same.The Czar however, told the Kaiser he would be no party to any action against Britain, and he said that he trusted absolutely to the good faith of the British Empire.However much Russta might desire the Straits that were offered her, she would never take then as the price of her dishonor; he said that the proposal, instead of bringing peace to the Balkans, would bring a sword, The letter closed with a dignified rebuke to the Kaiser.Because of the Crar's action, Germany had to wait for another year: to make her tiger spring.Toronto Mail, A BOTANICAL PARADISE.\u201c \u2014

Anglo-French forces on the Gallipoli Peninsula, according to an announcement given out this evening by the British Official Press Bureau, The announcement is as follows: General Sir lan Hamilton, commander of the Allied forces at the Dardanelles, reports that on the 12th instant the forces under him made an attack at daybreak with their right and center, After heavy and confused fighting, lasting all day, the troops engaged, including a French corps, succeeded in carrying two strongly held and strongly fortified lines of Turkish trenches opposite to them, the ground covered by the adyance varying in depth from 200 to 400 yards.\u201cThe second phase of the operation was then undertaken, and the right section of the enemy's lines was ats tacked.As in the former phase, the first line of trenches was easily carried, a preliminary bombardment having been very successful.Following up this success our -troops took the second line of trenches, capturing some eighty prisoners, and by nightfall the line was consolidated some 400 yards in advance of our original position.\u201cIn this part of the field in the course of the noght of July 12-13, two heavy counter attacks were successfully repulsed.During the hours of darkness, however, it was found that the British right had pressed too far, and the Turks made a successful bomb attack and caglured a section of the trenches.k.\u201cThis positior being vital to the safety of life a further attack was organized, and a brigade of the Royal Naval division, supported by French artillery, was sent forward, and with

without difficui- ty.\u201cDuring the night of the 13th-14th, as oo the previous night, the enemy counter attacked, but without success.\u201cThus in these successful operations -the whole of the

is controlied\u2014is on the left side of the brain and that in left- handed people it is on the right side there has existed a suspicion that if a person became ambidextrous, or able trusc both hands equally well, the speech center might he doubled.and consequently talking ability might be improved.Very claborate tests have shattered this hope.A German specialist obtained the assistance of the school authorities and tried it on nearly 3.000 school children.After a careful record was taken of each child's hand preference, seeech ability and general capability sil she children were told to try to use both hands.For many months an effort was made to have all the children become ambidextrous.< iAt the end of the test all the teachers and other otservers agreed that, though some of the children had succeeded in becoming ambidextrous, the effort had worried them all and had shown no advantages manually or in speech that in any way recompensed for the trouble taken.\u2018Consequently the scientist has decided that nature is doing pretty well with her own system af left sid: speech and right hand preference.~Saturday Evening Post.| SSN SNR ! A SAMPLE OF STORIES GERMANY - SENDS ABROAD THE FOLLOWING STORY ILLUSTRATES EXTENT OF A GERMAN FABRICATION.(Correspondence.) Goettingen, Germany, July 1\u2014Late in February, the Fifth Royal, one of the crack Canadian regiments, eleven hundred strong, left Montreal, en route for England and the great European war.Less than four montis later, after w\u20acekd in the trenches at Ypres, only thirty-seven of those eleven hundred men were known to remain alive and they are prisoners in the great military camp here.Overpowered by the gai waîted toward their positions, deserted by colored troops supposed to come to their support, all but decimated by the deadly German fire, the little band of four npn-commissioned officers and thorty-three privates were very easy prey.Before they regained consciousness they were in captivity.They thirty-seven at Goeltingen hope that some of their brave regiment may have escaped and may stil be fighting, but they do not believe it.They were on the outskirts of the gas columns that swept over the \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 \u2014 THE WRECKAGE 0 \u201cGod! trenches, and they escaped with their lives because they did not have to breathe the noxious fumes in their full strength.Many of them have as yet not been able to establish communication with their families in far-off Canada, and are not sure whether mothers, wives and sisters known that they have escaped death.Here is the little roll of survivors.Except where otherwise indicated, the men are privates: J.Trainer, C.M.S.; A.F.Lee, Corporal; A.Sullivan.Lanc:-Corpot- al; C.S.Ogilvie, Lance Corporat; J.Anderson; Harry Anting; J.Beg: go: F.J.Binoy; G.C.Bolan; S.Campbell; S.Cameron; W.Cowek; W.Cuin; J.H.Car; G.Davidson; Evans; W.Grant; C.D.Goodsmith; C.F.Green; C.Holdway: H.Harker; W.Holden; C.Hare; M.Knight: S.Matheson; A.McGregor; G.McEldownie; J.O'Keefe; L.Patterson: J.Rankin;; \u2014.Snowdon; A.Strefford; Wynnas one of indescribable horror; tney chafe at confinement and the lack of assurance -that England is winning; they expréss in varying degrees surprise that the Germans are not the \u201cbarbarians\u201d they had believed them to be.Harry Anding, a Montreal of the little group to descrive their feelings as they now loaf about in captivity.\u201cThere isn't any question.\u201d he said, \u201cbut that we all have had to revise our opinion of the \u2018Jermans, though not all of us were prepared to believe all we heard and read abou: them.The worst thing about being in a pri- pon camp is the isactivity, and for , that the Germans naturally are not { resnonsible.\u201cThe food is fair, though as a masz ter of course, monotonous.I for one.haven't any complaint, thougt I manage to get a good many extra things from England to piece sut with.| I imagine that the man who hasn't any friends and who doesn\u2019t «get any extras does à certain amount of suffering.\u201cBut mail.money and packages come regularly and reasonably quick.We all have to admire the thoroughness of the German system in vogue here.Those of us who are able to take matters philosophically.appreciate that, though being prisoners oi war is far froin being a joke, we are all well treated on the whole.ones wha are able to sit back, confident that England is going to win and that this cannot last forever.\u201d Another member of the Fifth Royal regiment.gave à brie! glimpse into the relations among the Allies.He said.\u201cLet me tell you that the French as fighters have proved a big disappointment to us.have been together\u2014French and English and Canadians\u2014i* has been the latter two who have had to bear the brunt of the work.\u201cThe Belgians, on the other hand, have proved the finest little fighters in the world.If the French were anywhere near as good, with their numbers, the war would he over.\u201d \u201cWhat do you people think of the colored troops?\u201d the Canadian was asked, as two oddly cl black as ebony, and speaking a horrible jargon of French, sauntered by the barracks.\u201cThey're cowards.\u201d \u201cAt Ypres, they sent up a lot of those so-called soldiers to relieve us, and they promptly turned and r ourselves to prevent demorslisation.Aside from the Fifth Royale, the Canadian troops now imprisoned at Goettingen belong to the 48th Highlanders of Toronto.and the second Buffs.There are 138 of the former left out of the original 1,100, and less than that number of the Buffs.Th members of the Second Buffs | at Gosttingen include she follow ing The mes pp privates ualess } J.Dunn; L.Dewar; P.Ducie; R.H.Templeman; I.The men portray the fight #t Ypres boy.\u2018 serves as well as any other members.Those | who are the least unhappy are the!

sense that specialties, chiefly those in the war contract class, manifested grecter strength, while railways deonated increased selling pressure.Iu the final hour this condition underwent a sharp reversal, all the former speculative favorites coming rapidly to the front, with grins of one to over two points.\u2018The change was coincident with the announcement that the Standard Oil Company had disposed of various of its pipe lines to meet the wishes of the Inter-State Commerce Commission, and the declaration of an increased dividend by the Amalgamated Copper Company, which disbursed one dollar instead of the usual fifty cents.Thert was also an awakening of speculative interest as a result of Germany's explanation of the Nebraskan incident which was accepted as an evident desire to maintain friendly negotiations with Washington.Confirmation of increasing activity at leading centres of the steel industry.gave an added fill up to the very strong close.Record breaking quotations were made by Bethlehem Steel at 181 1-2, American Can at 5$2 1-8, Baldwin Locomotive at 71 3-4 and Willy Overland at 138 1-2, United States Steel changed hands in enormous quantities towards the close, rising to 63 3-8, its best quotations since the early part of June, when the Federal Court absolved the corporation from any infraction of the Sherman law.Southen Pacific was weakest and most
