the progress in lahor legislation in the United States and the progress of the Whitley Councils system in England were all dealt with during the day's sesions.Premier Borden was absent owing to Hiness.though he had looped to preside, and his message was read by Senator Robertson, Minister of Labor, who is a vice-chairman of the Conference.In it he referred to the need of unity among all classes in striving to better conditions in Canada and said that while it was hoped that the peace treaty overseas was to bring peace to the entire world.the peace treaty of labor.in Canada should also be made secure by the results of the present gathering.Hon.W.L.Mackenzie King urged BUY BOSTON FERNS Now = 2 OTT AA OT AE among other htings, that the rights of four parties tu labor problems be recognized.These were labor, capital, management.and the public interest, represented by the co nmunity which provided the laws without which industry could not progress and which also provided the means of- transportation and communication so important to the development of every industry.The labor problems were too big for any party feelings to creep into efforts for their solution, said Mr.King, and he urged the delegates.in their deliberations, to get down to the human side of things.The human feelings were far more important than the dollar, he said, and they must remember that industry was created for humanity rather than humanity for industry.Hon.A.L.Sifton.Minister of Publie Works, and Hon.N.W.Rowell, President of the Privy.Codneil, aise spas\u201d briefly, the work of the Canadian delegates on the labor clauses of the treaty of peace.Mr.Rowell spoke of the pressing need of a permanent solution of Canada\u2019s labor unrest which had resulted in many strikes during the past year.However, Canada had been more f qte than many other countries and he felt that Canadian labor's record during the war years would in no way be blemished by its record during the reconstruction per- Ll Mr.Lauck outlined the progress made in war efforts and in recon- struetion work in the United States and told the delegstes that the na tion across the border would watch the proceedings here very closely more especially as a similar conference is to he held in Washington next month, when it is hoped that the results of this conference will guide the American employers and employees to a greater extent in solv ing their troubles.There were upwards of two hundred delegates in attendance when the meeting opened and these were representative of every branch of industry and labor, The speeches and proceedings are being followed with a close interest, and it is expected that the sessions will continue morning and afternoon until Saturday.Sr William Hearst was among those present at the opening sessions.and Ît is expected that more of the Provincial Premiers wili be on hand when the meetings are resumed tomorrow.have a splendid assortment of well grown, healthy plants, Priced from $1.00 upwards.Montreal and Quebec lower Phone 5535 9 SL John Street EDISON DIAMOND DISC PHONOGRAPH Known as the Phonograph with a SOUL DOHAN'S MUSIC SHOP 20 Palsco mn | i Place One in Your Home Phone 4748 À LA LL LL LL + 4 ° ¢ + The formar: told of | ! | Monday was PASSAGE-AT-ARMS BETWEEN PREMIER AND GEN, HERTZOS SMUTS DENIES SOUTH AFRICA HAS RIGHT TO SECEDE FROM EMPIRE Cope Town, S.A.September 15.\u2014 (Via Reuter\u2019s Agency).\u2014There was an interesting passsge-at-arms between Premier Smuts and General Hertzog on the question of separation from the Empire during the debate in the Assembly.When Gen.Hertzog said that the Nationalist Congress must decide on the secess- janist policy, General Smuts thrilled the House with his absolute and decisive statement: \u201cSouth Africe has not the right to secede from the Empire.Under clause 19 of the Constitution secession is impossible and unconstitutional.The Assembly cannot secede from the King.\" On this juncture General Hertzog shouted: \u201cCan it renounce the King?General Smuts: \u201cNo! It is not a question of status, but of the constitution.In the terms of the Constitution the King cannot give up the Assembly.\u201d General Hertzog interrupted: \u201cAt the request of the people.\u201d General Smuts replied: \u201cNo! Of course, by revolution it can be done, but you cannot do s0 by constitutional means.As regards the veto it exists, but where ordinary laws are concerned, it is obsolete.\u201d General Hertzog interrupted, saying: \u201cThere you are right, but you are wrong on the Constitational point.\u2019 .General Smuts: \u201cIt is the duty of the King to veto any law under which the Union would sscede from the Empire.\u201d The Premier concluded by uttering warning of the seriousness of not declaring openly to the people what the Nationalist palicy was and what it meant.STEEL WORKERS ARE ORDERED TO

intended to do.A fair price committes, based on tge system in use in the United States and to be used as à model for other Canadian cities will be established.Mr.O'Connor seemed to be rather dissppointed at the om attendance and be made it clear that there must be co-operation on the part of citl- zeus if \u2018resuite are to be obtained.This afternoon he will have a private conference with the Council's Food Committee.Some interesting developments are locked for when the inquiry is re- vwemed tomerrow, \u201cThe traders themselves are complaining today,\u201d ssid Mr.O'Connor,

Fisheries an- nouneg that.effective from today, the pilotage rates in the Montreal Dising trade and $4.00 per foot draught for all vessels engaged in the coasting trade and $4.00 per food draught for all sea-going vessels.The rates obtaining hitherto were $3.00 and $3.25, respectively.In the early days of the present season, s request was received from the pilots for en increase in these rates to $6.00 per foot draught.The shipping interests objected strongly to any increase in | the rates then existing.claiming that the increased business as the result (of the return to normal conditions would add very materially to the remuneration of the pilots.This con- \u2018tention is borne out by the fact that from the beginning of the season to August 15th ast, the earnings of Montreal pilots amounted to $63,283, as against $31 807 for the same period last year.cently appointed as General Superinada.with headquarters at Ottawa, has recommended the 75 cent increase after investigating conditions.His recommendation has been approved by the Deputy Minister and Minister of Marine.In the meantime, the representatives of the shipping interests frequenting the ports of Montreal and Quebec have sent a memorial to the Minister of Marine and Fisheries, requesting that action be taken forthwith to discontinue the compulsory payment of pilotage in both Montreal and Quebec districts.They represent that as a result of the improvement in the channel from Montreal to the sea, and of the very excellent marking both by day and night, the necessity for compulsory pilotage in these districts has largely dissppear- ed.They point out that owners of ships operating above Montres! are not subject to compulsory pilotage and also that as they are entirely responsible for their own property they should be free to make such arrangements as they deem best for bring- re their shipe to Montreal and Que- The Minister Is consideriug their representations, FIFTEEN GERMAN

it was a strange conglomeration of metor vehicles that General Hsu Shu-chen gathered the other day at Kalgan to transport kis Chinese'army across the Mongolian Desert.Here indeed was contrast, for Ksigan something over a hundred miles northwest from Peking, stands on the line of the Great Wall, and the miscellaneous motor cars that the general had hastily brought together fronted s ven of sand

cars were not exactly derelicts, but they had suffered from native chauffeurs, and the rough patching received at the hand of Chinese mechanics had not succeeded in restoring one to its original efficiency.Consequently the fleet, if ever it started out, was hound to be exposed to unusual delays and stoppages.Nevertheless it started: the Chinese Army packed itself into the cars, good and bad,

PROLONGED.Optawe, Ont.Sept.15\u2014Parlia- ment returned to the debate on the Address today.Colonel John A.Currie wag disposed to move the ad- fournment to discuss the question of gratuities in accordance with bis notice of Thursday last, but desisted when it was explained that Major- General Mewburn was unavoidebly absent.The discussion of this matter is almost certain to come on Tuesday.The debate dragged, but there being a disposition to get it over wttu as soon as possible, the House sat in the evening.In the corridors members discussed the possibility of the session lasting longer than the five or six weeks originally planned.They said that a number of bills left over from last session are likely to be taken up.The probabilities are that some of the conclusions to be reached at the Industrial Relations Conference will be crystallized into rliementsry enactments before the louse rises and in that event the session will be lengthened.Mr.Edmund Proulx in resuming the debate today complained of the high cost of living and argued that the Government should remove the duty on bacon.A.T.Leger, of Kent, N.B., made accusations against officers who are rounding up defaukers in New Brunswick.Mr.W.F.Maclean discussing his favorite theme of Nationalization af Railways had a tif with Dr.Cowan, of Regina.At the evening sitting H.E.Lavigueur who is Mayor

gretwities and showing comparisons with the gratuities and pensions paid by other countries are to be printed and distributed throughout the counttry.A motion authorising their jeinting was passed.Colonel John Currie, rising to move the adjournment of the House to discuse the question of gratuities, was told by the Speaker that the motion wes not debateable.Mrwoherty said that the Minister of Miiitia wes unavoidably absent and asked Colonel Currie to postpone the discussion.To this Colonel Currie agreed.The debate on the Address was then continued.Messrs.E.Proulx, A.T.Leger and W.F.MacLean discussing the high cost of living.Speaking on the question of transportation the latter argued that with a national system of railways there must also he national shipping.With the acquisition of the Grand Trunk and the full utilization of the telegraphs acquired with the C.N.R,, Canada would be one of the leaders of the world in nationalization.Mr.Devlin interrupted to ask how Mr.MacLean could exphain the deficits on Canadian National Raflways, \u201cThey have not had an opportunity to put savings into effect\u201d Mr.MacLean replied.With a national system there would be

given sufficient time to consider the peace treaty.There were, he said, many members of the Opposition who would have liked to express opinions on this important pact, but they were prevented from doing so by the hurry of the Government.He expressed his hearty approval of the Fielding amendment to the treaty which failed to carry.Mr.Lavigueur mid thet in his opinion the Government should have

hope tonight that à genera] strike in sympathy with the polices who quit their post last Tues day would be averted.These were found largely in the sentiment which favored recourse to the courts in an effort to have the strikers reinstated.Strike sentiment is known to be strong in certain union quarters, and , Frank H.McCarthy, New Egland organizer for the American Federation ; of Labor, and President Michael J.| justified the action of the police in striking and attributed to Police O'Donnell of the Central Labor Union.in a formal statement tonight Commissioner Curtis complete responsibility for the lawlessness that ensued.They also point out that he Commissioner's rule forbidding the affiliation of the police with the American Federation of Labor was not promulgated until after a charter had been sought, and that the Commissioner had been warned three weeks before the strike of what would happen if he attempted to enforce his new role.: Couneel for the Labor leaders conferred with their clients today and it was reported that the Supreme Court might be asked to grant a writ of mandamus compelling the Police Com:missioner to reinstate the strikers, There is known to be a difference of opinion ameng members of various unions affiliated with the former police officers, many believing that before drastic action is decided upon appeal should be made to the courts to determine whether the police acted illegally in abandoning their duties.The adjournment ves- terday without provision for another meeting before next Sunday of the Cnetral Labor Union was accepted as indicating that a general strike was not imminent.At the worst, this would not be declared until the Ontra] body had canvassed the votes now being taken by affiliated unions.| Meanwhile the recruiting of a new i police force is proceeding expeditions ly and the first of the new men now in training will appear on the streets next Monday.With the State Guerd and tbe volunteer police on duty until the new department is thoroughly organized, it is believed that the city | will not see a repetition of the disorders, at least unless a general strike is declared.In that event the .worst that might happen has Seen anticipated, The first attempt to disorganize the normal life of the city will be the | signal for the bringing in of winat- ever number of Federal troops that may be

NATION AND \u201cINTERVENTION\" WOULD ONLY AMOUNT TO CONQUEST.New York, Sept 15\u2014The chief strength of the campaign for intervention in Mexico, according to Prof.William R Shepherd of Columbia University, is that of certain vested interests, American and European, which do not wish to obey the existing Mexican Constitution, which, he says, apparently seeks to nationalize the properties concerned.In his introduction to Semuel Guy Inman's book, \u201cIntervention in Mexico.\u201d an argument against intervention, the first few chapters of which have been made available to this office in advance to publication, Professor Shepherd says that formerly the holders of these interests paid taxes and now they are asked to pay royalties or rentals.\u201cThe one means that they were the owners of the property; the other that the State owns i.\u201d says Professor Shepherd.\u201cAdmitting that, if actually carried into effect, a procedure of that kind on the part of the Mexican Government would amount to confiscation, does that justify ue in conquering Mexico, with gl the expenditure of blood and treasure which war involves?\u2019 Mexico a Sovereign Nation.Professor Shepherd states that in the world at large Mexico is recognized as an independent sovereign nation, and whatever the complaints raised against it because of the misconduct or misfortune of its rulers and people, the fact remains that it is not a colonial region inhabited by an altogether backward folk in sore need or correction.\u201cThat,\u201d he continues, \u201cmay be the popular view maintained by the outsider, but it is not the official one.It is quite true, however, that the attitude of our government during the last eight years of disorder and turmoil would seem to indicate that the country is neither \u201c48° independent sovereign state, nor yeb\u2014on the order of certain of its smaller sisters in and around the Caribbean Ses\u2014a ward of the United States.No, it is some anomalous thing that lies in between.\u201cI Mexico is an independent sovereign state, it has an abeotute right to adopt 8 constitution whenever it pleases, and to do so in Îts own way.That its way is not ours does not alter the right in the mutter.Even if the new Constitution does set aside laws, statutory or constitational, and replace them by others thet may violate privileges of private ownership conferred by such preexistent laws, even if the procedure under them ie held to be confiscatory by the persons and governments adversely affected.the Mexican people, nevertheless, are quite at liberty, should they so choose, and in their own fashion, to incur sll the imter- nations! risks that action of the sort may bring forth, but they cannot be denied the right to change their laws as they see fit.Intervention or Conquest, \u201cWar may be made upon them in consequence; they may be conquered and their country may be anmexed or converted into a protectorate.In that case they would suffer the fate that many à weak nation has emder- gone at the hands of a strong one.But if Mexico has iost the quality and distinction of being an independ- «nt sovereign nation or perhaps in reality has rever had them.and ail along has been subject to the operation of our \u2018domestic policy,\u2019 \u2018inter vention\u2019, doubtless, is technically mote or less of a suitable expression to use, though conquest is what would take place.\u201cWith a fine disregard for the plea that Mexico may cherish grievances against the United States on its own account for à variety of acts of interference in recent years, and with no effort to ascertain what the real gen- timents of Mexican leaders and people have been toward the war in Europe.it is asserted that Mexico has been \u2018pro-German\u2019 and hence must be punished.Is there not just a possibility that the Mexicans and their government have been \u2018pro- Mexican\u2019 instead?Is there a faint chance to believe the present administration of the country is the choice of his people?AMENITIES POR CABDMEN, Theat the tradition of wit ln the lower courts of Great Britain is not being allowed to languish is

and in part to propagande intended to bring about a crisis if there is none, or to accentuate it if there is.\"The present social discontent and economic danger of the United Kingdom woul be quite sufficient to undermine the popularity of any Government, other considerations apart, but there is no question In creating the inner War Cabinet Lloyd George formed as a single authority to take over

throughout the British Empire.No charges have therefore been made against the public funds.Arrangements having been made with the Ad.| miralty to take and exhibit naval filme, Sir Graham Greene, at

picture record of certain battles and phases of the great war, have now been delivered into the possess ion of the War Office, and certain sections to our whether it will have an absolute majority is less certain.i As for Lioyd George himeæelf.a number of oon- | flicting influences are at work and anything is liable | to happen according as ome or the other of them triumphs.Lord Northoliffe is the declared opponent of the Prime Minister and the steady battering | of his chain of papers cannot have heen withont ef- feet on the actual situation.The Little Welshman will not head another administration through the good offices of the Napoleon of Fleet Street.On the other hand Lord Leverhulme appears to be responsible for a campaign to extricate Lloyd George from trouble at the expense of his colleagues.The publie is invited to believe that Mr.Bonari{lew hss been virtually Premier for the past six months of a Conservative majority and that he and his followers have been really responsible for all Government sins of omission or commission while the nominal Premier has been engaged in saving the country at Paris and elsewhere.If any salvation.however.remains for Mrown Canadian Government.During October, 1917, the Committee entered into an agreement with Mr.David Wark Griffith, the wellknown film producer, for the production of s picture play known as \u2018\u2018 Hearts of the World'\u2019 which has been exhibited in all parte of the world with great success.The Committee\u2019s share of the net profits in the United Kingdom and the sale of rights for Canada, Australis and Egypt already amounts to over $63,000.This important war orgarisation is now in process of closing up but it is one in which | 1 Canadians can take à special pride, owing to its indebtedness to tte adurinistretive and creative genius of Lord Beaverbrookvont obgénoAnOGODOSNUSHD9OGO ® a .PRESS COMMENT.: TROON OVVVDORBOOT SONOS Lloyd George it is with the Labor Party.His old Liberal friends have never forgiven him for his treatment of Mr.Asquith and are distrustful of his Unionist Assneiations.He has nothing permanent in common with the Conservative element although capable of joining hands with them in a national emergency: while his name is anathema to the Trish who feel that he his betrayed them when success was within their grasp.Mr.Lloyd George is far too old and too astute a politician not ta have sized the situation up accurate\u2019s for himeelf and he may be depended upon to ingratiate himself with the working foroes if it «an be done.That he would be a brilliant accession to these farees goes without saying but we are doubt- | ful as to whether Labor would receive any material advantage tiereby or whether it would consent to adopt him as its titular leader.If reports emanating from the other side are to be relicd on the crisis cannot he long in coming to 8 head so that the next few weeks should be of exceptional interest.Whatever rise happens it will be unfortunate if no party can command a sufficient folfowing to ensure a stable government and there is some danger of this taking place.WARING WAR PAY.If there be anything in the Midas touch of class- teal myth then My Lord Beaverbronk\u2014or Max Aitken for short\u2014mus! te ita fortunate possossor since there are few if any ruterprines that he espouses which do not turn to gold.He it was in tireat Britain who realized both the present value of war pictures as means of propaganda .and their permanent value as historic records: to gether with the commercial possibilities latent in their exploitation: with the result that the Empire now possesses a truly marvellous collection of paintings, photographs and moving pictures to hand down to posterity and the British Government has made a handsome sum of money into the bargein, from which Cansda incidentally has profitted to the extent of some fifty thousand dollars so far.In October, 1916, representative firme in the moving picture industry were anxious to obtain the rights to take flims on the Western Front and to ex- hilt them in the British Empire.They formed a Committee for this purpose and the Military Authorities having no objection to the taking and exhibiting of such pictures subject to censorship, the necessary arrangements were accordingly made with the War Office on condition thet a royalty should be paid to Military Charities.In July, 1916, the Government of the Dominion of Cansds made 5 simiter arrange ment.These arrangements coased\u2019to be sstiufestory, THE INITATORS.{New York

It is an appropriate time to pay a deserved tri- | bute to the qualities of the average salaried man who has borne the burden of the high cost of living inci- ness, more than the farmer who has reaped a harvest of gold from his fields, more than the wage-carner who has found increase after increase awaiting him on demand.The average salaried man has kept on the job; he hes fed and clothed his family somehow; he hes done his full share in buying bonds and sticking away thrift stamps and in giving to all the war causes, he has pinched and economixed, taken on extra hours in the home garden ; he has done his duty in the main bravely, loyally, patiently, nobly.The biggest thing about him is that he hesn't kicked and howled ; he hasn't threstened and mensc- od; he hasn't bombed or bolsheviked ; he hasn't often complained.He bes, indeed, borne the middle of the big load and been a good citisen about it.He is not a whit less of 8 hero than some others whose work bes been move spettaculer and whose suffering han been more sanguine.He deserves & tribute! will be no more.He bases his optimism on the im.| dent to the war and who has suffered perhaps more | than the men who

of which are to be given to the liberated regions, amongst which three posthumous crosses are awarded to Decomyuck, Maertens, and Varhlustothe, the companions of Jacquet, who were shot with him by the Germans in the cèta- del of Lille for having tried to help certain French soldiers who were idden in the neighborhood to pass into Holland.The war has greatly increased the number of legionaries in France, and the symbolieal significance of the red ribbon hes been considerably ang- mented during the hast four years.Jean Bourguignon, the distinguished curator of Malmaison, has therefore been particularly well-inepired in deciding to organize an exhibition of the Legion of Honor, which will retrace the origin and the history of the institution crested by the first consul and established by Napoleon Creating the Order.For it was at the Malmaison, in the home of Josephine, in April, 1608, that Bonaparte, conversing with Duroc, Roederer, and Monge, first conceived the plam of creating 3 national order of the Legion of Honor.A few days later, Meneval, and Bonnevenue drew up at Maimmison the bill for the creation of the Legion of Honor, and the project was defended by Roederer before the Council of State, and on the 29th of the same month it became law.Tt is therefore specially interesting to visit the exhibition actually opened at the Malmaison, the place of origin of this great French decoration.AN the insignia are arranged in large glass cases, and it is interesting to_study the transformations of the order both under Napoleon I and under the different regimes which have succeeded each other in France since 1815.One sees the original white enamel star with its five double rays, the center of which is decorated with the effigy nf the Emperor.Next to this \u2018original model of heroic cross\u2014which is light and elegant\u2014one notices the different SILKS, I \u2014 models adopted between 1806 and 1814.An imperial crown surmounts the decorstion, end on the under side of the cross is an eagle, armed with a thunderbolt, over the inscription, \u201cHonneur et Patrie.\u201d After the fail of the empire, the Legion of Honor was maintained by the Restoration.It retained its motto, but changed both its form and ite attributes.The effigy of Honel IV replaced that of Napoleon, the fleur de lys danished the eagle, whilst, under Louis Philippe, tricolor flags replaced the fleur de lys.But, when the second republic was declared, the effigy of Napoleon was reinstated in the center of the cross, whilst with | the second empire the emblem was provided with a crown surmounted by eight eagles.The cross which so many heroes have so gloriously won on the battlefields of Europe is decorated with the effigy of the republic, whilst the star is completed by a crown of laurels.Famous Crosses.The interest of all the insignia exhibited at Malmaison i.greatly increased by the fact that most of the crosses collected by Jean Bourguignon have been worn by celebrated historical personages.The crosses and ribbons worn by the \u201cLittle Corporal\u201d in person are exhibited, and many brevets, letters of nomination, and boxes bear illustrious names, whilst a sketch by Debret represents solemn inauguration of the Legion of Honor on July 14th, 1804, to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of the fail of the Bastile.A gold¥ringed standard of the Legion of Honor occupied a special glass case, bearing the date of Ang, 1804, which reminds one of the imposing ceremony which took place at the camp of Boulonge where, seated on the chair of the good King Dagobert, Napoleon distributed the coveted \u201cstars\u201d for the first time to his valisnt troops.From his throme the Emperor, it is sald, eurveyed a vast semi-circle where, massed in 20 columns, the troops formed so many rays which all converged toward their leader.Napoleon read to his troops the pledge of the Legion of Honor, and every one answered: \u201cWe swear to it!\u201d amidst the roll of the drums and clarion calls.The banner belongs to the old moss-grown Museum of Boulogne, and is, with the Museum's unique maritime collection, its most treasured possession.When, a year ago, German air raids became a nightly occurrence and destroyed several houses in the Grande Rue in the immediate vicinity of the old Musee, it was deemed more prudent to send the glorious relic to Malmaison, where it has remained to preside over the exhibition, visited each day by a large numher of visitors, who were also attracted by the beautiful gardens in which the Empress Josephine used to wander.CITY OF QUEBEC CITY CLERK'S OFFICE CITY HALL Tenders for Firemen\u2019s Winter Uniforme and Caps Quebec, 9th September, 1018 PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby given that the Fire Department will

JANUARY, \u2014 The body of Joseph Dery, the loco- tive enginésr in the employ of the C.P.R.who lost his life last January By drowning was found on the beach at Boischatel, near Montmorency Falls, yesterday afternoon.The discovery was made by a hunter, who found the body tangled in the reeds where it was washed in by the tide.He immediately notified the Coroner and the body was removed to Moisan\u2019s Morgue where it was identified by relatives.An inquest will be held by Coroner Jolicoeur this morning and the temains will be interred at St.David, Levis County, this afternoon.; It will be recalled that Joseph Dery and two fellow trainmen met their death under rather peculiar circumstances.The accident happened at four o'clock on the morning of January 29th, when all three were in a locomotive which was shunting cars on the Pointea-Carcy wharf.In some unaccountable manaer the locomotive ran over the wharf and plunged into the river carrying the three men with jt.Attempts were made to recover the bodies, but proved unavailing and when the locomotive was salvaged this summer no trace of the bodies could be found.Towards the end of the month of June, however, the bod of Emile Beaudry, one of the victims, was picked up on the beach at Berthier; Joseph Dery\u2019s body was recovered yesterday, but the body of Joseph Lamontagne, the third victim, is still missing.The body of Joseph Dery, found yesterday, is decomposed beyond recognition, but the family identified the remain by the victim's watch and his keys.PERSONAL Mrs.J.R.McKernan left yesterday for Montreal, Boston
