been transferred from the active to the reserve Hst.This is in pursuance of the policy of General Joffre, commander-in-chief of the French army.in placing only young and active men in responsible commands.Since the outbreak of the war this policy has resulted in reducing the average of French Generals from 61 to 51.the Danish Island of Saltholm was published yesterday.The Lieutenant- |

in the conflict.The relations between Italy and Rumania for years have been very intimate and the opinion is expressed here that it is probable, especially in view of the threatening attitude of the Germanic powers toward Rumania because of her refusal to allow ammunition to pass through her territory, that now Italy has broken relations with Turkey, Rumania will join the Quadruple Entente.Bulgaria is still waiting for the reply of Serbia to the suggestion of the Entente ministers that Serbia cede Macedonia to Bulgaria, while Greece is likely to declare her future policy when the Chamber meets this week.The opinion is expressed in diplomatic circles here that it is significant that M.Venizelos, who always has been friendly to the Entente, Bas decided.to take charge, in addition to the Grecian Premiership, of the office of Minister of Foreign Affairs.With the inclusion of Italy among Turkey's opponents in the war, and the former's well-known desire for expansion in the Near East, the Balkan states may consider that the time is ripe for them to enter the field and secure for themselves a share of what falls to the victorious group.It is for them to decide which side is likely to win.The continued retirement of the Russian armies seems to have little if any influence on the situation, the opinion being expressed by military critics that victory of the Entente Allies in the Dardanelles would more than offset this so far as the Near East is concerned, and the Franco-British forces are increasing their efforts to force the straits.There is little change in Poland and the Baltic provinces.A big battle is being fought along the Kovno-Vilna railway and the river Niemen.This, however, is of secondary importance to the movements against Brest-Litovsk.The Austro-German forces are across the rivers and roads both north and south of this fortress, which is invested from three sides, and curiosity is evinced as to whether Grand Duke Nicholas.intends to defend it or to fall further back.For the moment le is resisting the Austro-German advance, but this may be only with rearguards which have been detailed to inflict as much loss as possible on the invaders and delay the progress of the Teutons.Liveliness has prevailed at some points along the western front but the engagements have been of minor importance.The French claim to have repulsed German attacks in Artois and in the Vosges, while both sides are expending ammunition in artillery éngagements, bomb throwing and other artifices in many places.to annoy.their opponents.The Italians report slight progress on all their fronts.120000 SCORE SIENS IRSESESR0CSEO ASE NN0 ESS 20 ES TALIANS HAVE DECLARED WAR AGAINST TURKEY AMBASSADOR LEAVES CONSTANTINOPLE\u2014NEWS OF DECLARATION HAS

cotton contraband is effective froin today.A royal proclamation concerning the subject was published in a supplement of the London Gazette issued tonight.It is very brief.After a preamble citing previous proclamations concerning contraband, it says: \u201cNow.therefore, we do hereby declare by and with the advice of our Privy Council that during the continuance of the war or until we do give further public notice the following articles will be treated as absolute contraband in addition to those set out in our royal proclamations aforementioned.Raw cotton, cotton linters, cotton waste and cotton yarn.\u201cAnd we do hereby further declare that this.our royal proclamation, shall take effect from the date of its publication in the London Gazette.\u201d U.8.Will Protest.Washington, Aug.22\u2014Announce- ment that cotton had heen declared absolutd contraband of war by Great Britain, came as no surprise to officials here.Secretary Lansing was informally advised by th~ British Embassy some time ago that this action had been decided upon, and that formal announcement was delayed only pending the arrangement of details.This included, it is understnod, preparations to protect the market from the effect of the announcement and also an understanding between Great Britain and her Allies.While officials would not discuss the subject Saturday sight.it is certain the United States will protest against the British action, citing the previous consistent policy of Great Britain in holding cotton free of restraint.The result, it is expected, will be to draw out a full explanation nf the reasons behind the British change of policy.+ \u2014 DAMAGING FLOODS - CONTINUE THROUGH _ MISSOURI STATE MERAMIC RIVER OVERFLOWS ITS BANKS \u2014LOSS OF Lim REACHES 20.7 _ Sn \u2019 St.Louis, Mo., Aug.22.\u2014The Mux mic river, lined on either side with thousands of pleasure resorts, clubhouses and summer cottages, went several miles out of its banks today, swept away most of these buildings and increased to 20, it is reported, the number of lives lost in St.Louis county as a result of the flood which followed the recent rain storm here.The Meramic began rising a foot an hour this morning and the flood was so sudden that hundreds of pes- «ons had time only to climb to tree tops.Efforts to rescue these even with motor boats had been in vain early tonight.The siver passed toe vight a stage five feet higher than even before in its history, - The worst conditions prevail at de rivers mouth.Thousands of refugees from the flooded districts are being housed in churches, hotels and other public buildings nearby.Cots af food are being sent to the scene from St.Louis.Approximately nine thousand feet of the track on the St.Louis asd San Francisco ('Frisco) Railroad near Moselle, Mo., was washed out THE DOMINION OF CANADA.\u2014 That's the Official Title of England's North American Daughter The official title of Canada is tle Dominion of Canada.It embraces eleven provinces, viz: Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunse wick, Novo Scotia, Ontario.Prince Edward Island, Quebec Saskatchèe wan, North-west Territories and Yue yon Territory.The government is federal, centers ed at Ottawa, the capital of the Doe minion.while each of the provincét like our states.has its local legislature and capital.The head of the fee deral government is a governor gee neral.appointed by the king of Great Britain an?holding office dor five years.Each province has a lieute nant governor.appointed hy the fan deral government for a term of five years.The federal or Dominion pars ment consists of a senate, with cigh- ty-seven members, nominated by the governor general and appointed for tife by the king.and a house of cofie mons of 221 members.elected by the people of the several provinces for a term of five years, the right of suf The first direct effect of the British * frage being subject to a properfy announcement will he to simplify the qualification.2.;

Manoir Richelieu, completely destroying the laundry, the bell boys\u2019 dormitory, the ice house and the engine house.Owing to the strenyous efforts of the em- pluvees who ware very effectually aided by many of the guests the fire wa: confined to the western annex and the main building practically undamaged except by water.The best of disciplire was maintained.everyone was systematically warned to dress and pack their effects as it was expected the entire hotel would be destroyed.The greatest praise is given the manager and employees who left their own effects and did everything in their power to aid the guests and to prevent the fire from ryreading.I many cases they lost their cntire seasons earnings and personal property.As the heating plat was put out of commission and lausidry completely destroyed the guests were reluctantly compelled to seek other quarterd some going to wther Murray Bay resorts and others returning to their homes.Loss Js Serious.The fact that the Manoir Richelieu will have to close down for the remainder of the season will be a ser- jouz loss, not only to Murray Bay but to Quebec as.well.Most of the rueste of the hotel arrived in Quedec yesterday, many of them going right through while others stayed over a: the Chateau Frontenac.The boats which arrrived from Montreal Saturday and Sunday carried a large number of American tourists who were on their way to Murray Pay.All thes: remained over here, land last night the Chateau had probably « \u2018arger number of guests than at avy other time this summer.Befor: leaving Murray Bay the guests of the Manoir Richelieu made a collection for the Bell Boys who had lost their summer earnings in the fire.A sum of $40.00 was taken up and distributed amonst the boys.\u2014 Le mate !

between Quebec and La Tuque could not be brought to a decisive issue as rain prevented the playing of the last event which was to have taken place on the grounds of the Lieut-Governnr at Spencer Wood.This was a pityas the general opinion was that this event, a doubles in which Tessier and Jones of Quebec were to have met Brown and Bradley of La « Tuque, would have proved the most interesting contest of all.Five matches out of the six scheduled were played off, the result being that Quebec led with a score of three to two, the home team winning three singles and dosing one sirgle and a double.The singles between Tessier and Brown was responsible for some ot the best tennis of the afternoon and for a good while it was touch and go between the two.Brown's steady work and wonderful placmg won him the tirst set comparatively easily, but the visiting captain made the mistake of slowing up a little in the second and failed to press his advantage home.Tessier was not slow to notice this and gradually forged ahead.overcoming his opponent's lead and winning the match by taking the next two sets.It was a fine match and both men showed up well.A feature of the afternoon was the brilliant playing of Perodeau who ae- frated Higgins and made some of the prettiest shots of the afternoon.Higgins is always a strong antagonist.as his previous matches with Tones, the Quebec crack, have prowv- ed.and the fact that Perodeau beat him well justifies the latter's selec tion on the Quebec team.De Carteret of La Tuque again took COsborne's measure, being the only visitor to win a singles event.Bradley of La Tuque put up a hard zame against Jones and his uisual ag- æressiveness was the means of winning him the second set after the Quebec man had taken the first.However.Jones\u2018 characteristic steadiness again served him well and brought him out victor in the end.Only one of the two doubles on she programme was played and in this Higgins and de Cartgret beat Perodeau and Osborne.The match was prêtty even for a time and although the La Tuque men took the first set the Quehecers came back strong in the second.The effort, however, was in vain as La Tuque won the next two.BOXING TONIGHT.Three Ten Round Bouts Scheduled for Princess This Evening.Matchmakers Billy Benson and Doughney of the Quehec Sports s- sociation arrived in town yesterday
