INDUSTRY Fow Orders Placed at Leipsig Sample Fair\u2014Questionable Taotics.London, May 20.\u2014 Impressions gained by a visitor at the Leipzig Sample Fair was that oo far as German industry is concerned the amount of business transacted as a result of the fair will be very disap- various exhibits, but by \u2018conversations with various foreign buyers and particularly from an exchange of views which took place on the return journey between a Dutchman, & Dane, & German shipper and himselt.It appeared from this conversation that German industry was absolutely distrusted at the present time owing to the difficulties in connection with obtaining raw materials, the shortage of coal and the upward trend of production costs.Further the questionable tactics which German manufacturers are showing to foreign buyers, particularly as regards the system of accepting cons tracts with the proviso \u201cfreible.bend\u201d.that is, that the terms are not binding, has aroused the trust of foreign buyers.It is understood that many orders placed at the Frankfort Fair and the Leipzig Autumn Fair are still unfulfilled, and there is no prospect of them being carried out at anything like the prices agreed upon, nor can any satisfaction be man merchants.Some eight hundred prospective buyers from Denmark attended the fair but no contracts appagr to have \u2018been made, although it is stated that the intention of thess buyers was to purchase on an extensive scale, he outlook had, howaver, frightened oft all prospective buyers, \u201cPAPER SILK\" OF JAPAN Millions of yards of a new

0.D.Mackenzie Complains of Broken: Promises Regarding Tariff Commission\u2014H.M.Mowatt Declared Drayton Had Justified Country's Liberal Inconsistencies Quawa, Ont.May 20.\u2014The question whether the House should ait oh Victoria Day, was raised by Colome] Peck, V.C., shortly after open- Monday as usual, To this course ob- den egid it was intended to sit on Monday as usis.To this course ob- joctions were ralszd by Colonel Peck and by the Hon.W.8, Fielding who thought it mare fitting that the Mouse should adiourn on Victoria Day.Bir Robert Borden then submitted a motion to provide for adjournment from Friday evening to Tues- Jay afternoon.As no notice had been given of the motion it could only be consid- sred by unaimous consent and ob- fjections to It were raised In severa) quarters.H.A.MacKie, oi Edmonton protested that Western members were anxious to get through with the business of the session and returning to their homes.H.8.Hocken, Toronto-West, suggested tha: the House might sit on taturday and holiday on Monday.The Speaker however, mid that notice must be given If the member desired to move this.As there was objection to the awion for adjourn- dient over the holiday, it would have to stand.Mr.MacKie said that he did not wish to bu the only dissenting voice and therefore withdrew his objection.G.A.Gauvreau, of Temiscouata, protested against the Victoria Day udjournment so the motion was al- iowed to stand until tomorrow.When the Budget dedate was resumed, H.M.Mowatt (Parkdale), wail that Sir Henry Drayton had justified all the expectations which the country had had of his conduct of the national finances.The triff question was chiefly difficult because business differs in one part of Canada from the other part, and not one Man was conversant with &ll the requirements.Mr:\u2018Mowatt said it would be dan- werour to lift the tariff on agricultural implements because thers were many times when owing to fluctuation of business, United States firms could afford to divert an overstock in a Western agency to the Canadian Prairies and sll at a loss rather than pay freight charges back to Eastern Canada.It would be obviously bad policy to let strangers undersell our own manufacturers at their convenience.He pointed oui that Implements manufactured in his constituency were sold on the Prairies as far West as Medicine Hat at a lower price than United Siates machines were soid.The same was true that other products of Eastern Canadian factories, and interviewing one such manufacturer he was told that it was not neces- .sary to charge more than five percent over the United States factory price in order to meet American competition.The tariff of 32 1-2 percent explained the higher price un American roods, Enthusiaum Modified Mr.Mowatt sald that the Opposition had considerably modified its eniumiasl for frce trade mince last vear, Answering Mr.McMaster\u2019s critl- vism of the Milita estimales Mr.Mowat zu.d the later wanied them wu: down withou: any knowledge whatever of the cirrumsunces or what the money was for.Mr.Mcdiasier was trying tu assume the leadership of a gryup which would ha.e behind it ail ihe \u201csissies\u201d in the country, a group which was such a deterrent to Parllament fin Its efforts throughout the late war.The peuple of Lower Canada had de- tenued their land from invasion and would do s0 aguin if the necessiiy arose, even to the extent of com.puisory service.Mr.McMaster had snesred at Imperialism, but 8ir Wiitrid Laucier was cne uf the grentes\u2019 Empertalists that ever lived.More than any other person he fostered the feeling Letwren the Mothet Country and Canada which resuit- ed not oniy in friendship, but in the mata lal prosperity of Canade und Imusrial priterence despite the strong protests of protectioniets and strong nationat feeling.Mr.Mowatt hoped the mothers of the Country would not be led away by the argument of Mr.McMaster against military preparation which history had shown to be an absolutes necessity.D.D.McKensie (Cape Breton), wld that Mr.Mowalt belonged to the class of people who ne forgot anything and never learned any- Every Expeotation\u2014Strange \u2014\u2014 thing.He would remind Mr.Mowatt that on November 39, 1911, or eight years, ive months and 31 days ago, the Government promised a tarlf commission.The Commisson has not been appointed.\u201cLet me assure him,\u201d continued Mr, McMaster, \u201cthat he need have no fear of à downward revision of the tariff or of anything progressive so long as the Government re mains in power.\u201d ; Mr McKensie wanted to know why there had been so much delay in bringing down the Budget.Ii was only an array of old figures thai the most ordinary clerk could put together in lese than a day.The object of the Budget was to set, the financial \u2018situation of the country before the people.The Minister of Finance spoke for a couple of hours but the position of the country was not made clear.The Budget had brought no relief to anyone.Poor Man Tazed The poor man was taxed as much as the rich.The miiMonaires had song to the Minister and said: \u201cWhy should these gentiles of the lower and middle classes be permitted to be clothed in purple and fine linen, which by Divine right belongs to ua, our wives and our children?\u201d The idea of this (overnment doing anything for the poor people or to reduce the high cost of living was absurd.Bworn evidence, given by Sir Thomas White, before a special commission En the cost of living, showed that a total of $276,000,000 had been extracted from the pockets of the Canadian people to purchase Canadian produce for the relief of European countries during the war.\u2018The cost of living had been thereby increased, and Mr.McKenzie drew attention to the fact that this vast sum, constituting loans to other countries, was not even mentioned in the statement of assets read on Tuesday by the Minister of Finance.The Government's friends, the rich men of the country, had been virtually allowed to spend this sum «s they pleased, and to exploit Canadian produce to maintain high prices in Canada.Mr MoKensie accused the Government of being on unstable ground and of having received notice almost from the Atlantic to the Pacific to quit.He wenc,over nine by-election contests held within the last two years and In each case, he said the notice to quit had been emphatic.He was speaking of his own trip to Temiskaming when Sir George Foster Interrupted to say that he, Mr McKenzie had also re- cejevd notice to quit., As far back as 1393, the Liberal Party instituted a tariff policy and adhered to Jt main principles ever since.\u2018The Liberals were now telling the people that they hid had a trial of «heir Government for fifteen years prior to 1911 and that a good many of the men who had made that fic- \u2018een years one of Can sucess- fui eras were still with the party und: were willing to carry on again.«Unfair Criticisms H.H.Stevens, of Vancouver, res marked in opening, that Mr.McKen- sie had labored rather hard to jus.tity the course which he evidently ntended to ake, namely, voting (or the amgndment.The momber from North Cape Breton had offered « number of unfalr .criticismi oi ihe financial administration of the country during the past year.He hud, for instance, criticised advances made by ihe Canadian Govsrnment to the starving nations of Europe in order that they might purchase Canadian productions.Mrdtevens had nothing but praise for thi What could be wiser, he sald than fo supply these credits to Eucropean countries which were reasonably sound and would be In a position to repay them| It was a chancs to promota the foreign trad: of Canadas, while suppiying European countries which were in the greatest need.Mr.McKenzie while Leader of the Opposition, had been fond of announcing to members who had strayed from the Lideral camp to other parties that the light was in the window and the latch string up for their return, His present attitude, said Mr.Stevens, appeared to be one of con- clliation towards the members of th new farmers\u2019 party Mr, McKensis had tried In his speech to\" show the (armers and Labor men that the pol cy of the Liberal Purtly in regard to the tariff was practically one with their own.- Mr, Stevens drew the attention © the House to what he described as some strange contradictions in the views of Opposition members wha had spoken on the Budget.Hon.|W.8.Fielding, the chief Opposition critic had admitted that there might be conditions under which free trade could not be applied.A, R.McMaster, another of the chief cri.tio of the Opposition got up and declared that he etooû \u201cfour square\u201d tor free trade.Mr.Fislding not only wid that he favored a measure of protection, but he had declared his belie in the peculiar brand of protection known as bonuses.On the other hand, Mr.McMaster said that he considered great industries were those which could stand on thelr own feet without Government as sistance.In \u2018passing, Mr.Stevens remarked that in his estimates.mergers and ocombings ware wise CHICAGO BANKERS ARE SATISFIED Liquidation ot Stocks By the Merchants Will Bring Credit Back to Normal Chicago, Ill, May 30.\u2014While the continued spread of the price-cut.ting wave was noted in Ceatral and Far Western States today, Chicaæo bankers expressed satisfaction with the financial situation, one man declaring that the liquidation of stocks by merchants would greatly ald in bringing credit back to normal.The price lowenng movement, while not general in Chicago.was aided today by action of stores in Ottumwa, Iowa, and another San Francisco establishment In announcing cuts of from 20 to 50 per- tent.In connection with the reductions, Nebraska women were asked today by that State's fair price commissioner, to notity their merchants that they would not pay higher prices for clothing next fall.\u2018The Commissioner, who ls Mrs.Coryan, of Omaha, declared that the recent price-cutting developments had shown women their power.Action to-aid in the campaign sgainet the cost of living was taken at Bt.Louis in resolutions and by the convention of the International Association of Garment Manufacturers, pledging its members to manufaèture and sell garments at the lowest possible price.According to a survey taken by the Cleveland Manufacturers\u201d Association of the Cleveland garment industry, prices of women's wearing apparel will.go no higher unless, # was stated, labor and material costs are advanced.ELECTED MODERATOR Rev.Dr.Samuel Sterling Palmer, of Columbus, Ohio, was elected to- \u2018ay Moderator of the Presbyterian General Assembly at its opening session

with danage estimated at $25,000.Therd is very little Insurance.The origin of the fire is unknown.\u2014\u2014\u2014 CABARETS CUT PRICES.New York, May 20\u2014Ths price- reduction agitation tonight

under judicious control and did not abun thelr power.\u2018The Opposition had praised the British method of handl ing a budget.Did not the recen} Budget of Great Britain include taxes such as & stamp tax, business profits corporation tax and beer and liquor tax, all of which were included In Bir Henry Drayton's Budget proposals?Mr.McMaster had not male :! clear when ,he advocated the taxation of war wealth that no decision to do so had been reached by the British Government.And he hal overlooked the fact that war profita in Canada were not liquid assets as they were in England.They had been invested in plan: and extension of business and were not accessible tu taxation.Mr.McMaster had not thought about how he was going to tax war wealih.he had simply propounded the theory because of its popular appeal.Mr, Stevens mid that the Opposition amendment submitted by Mr Fielding almed to destroy all thd measures of the Government for taising current revenue.It repudi ated the Opposttion's principie ot direct taxation and left no aiterna- tive means for raising money.Tae Opposition knew that the country must have money to pay its way and to meet floailing loans maturing in the fall besides paying interest on its war debt, but not one of the Opposition speakers had suggested any means uf raising funds if its suggestions were adopted defeating the Jovernment's scheme bf ing them.While he was strongly in tavor of revision of the twrnt, he thought the Government would have been derelict in its duly had it pro.cceded with revision under present conditions.Mr.McKenzie had cri ticised the Government for nut pru- ceeding with tariff revision.Bul what would the Opposition have sal if the Government during the years of the war had proposed to revise the lari.The Opposition would nave sald that members of the Government were out of their minds Mr.Stevens criticised the Nationa: Progressives.before farmers undertook to criticize manufacturers he sald, they should come wits clean hands themselves.While attacking protection, the farmers insisted on control of wheat through the Wheat Board.In Alberta ani Garkatchewas, eievators had been kept full of wheat all winter\u2014 there had been no great efforts to move it\u2014because the Wheat Board paid storage on it.Had manufacturers done the things which had been done in the West, the country from end to end would have heard of them.The (Uraln Growers Company had even gone to the extent of gambling in futures, which farmers at one time had asked to have m à criminal offence, Mr, Stevens was still peaking

America or is ii Russia?\u2019 sir Winston Spencer Churchill, the War Minister, intervened.He stated that Great Britain had enormous obligations in Constantinople, Ireland, Mesopotamia, Palestine and Egypt Great Britain had only small army, he said and the field marshal In addressing the soldiers had pointed out how sorely they were needed.That did not mean, the War Minister asserted, that Great Britain was on the verge of & great explosion.PART OF WIDE PROPAGANDA Carson Connects Irish Disorders With Those in India and Egypt London, May 20\u2014There is ample evidence, declared Sir Edward Carson.the Unionist Leader.during the Irish bil! debate In the House today, that the Irish disorders are all a part of the propaganda being conducted in Egypt and India.\u201cThe chief offices are In

consequence of tlie English dockers having telegraphed that they had refused to load war munitions for Ireland and the Irish Transport Union having dec'ded not to unload munitions shou'd they reach

gver the discussion of the employment by the French of black Yroops in the oc- supled area.Adolph Koester, Min- Ister of Foreign Affairs, replying to interpellation complaining of acts of savage brutality by these troops towards women and children, only a tithe of whose horrors were known, eald that protests from Great Britain, the United States, Bweden and Norway had made as little impression on the French Government as the German protests and that Germany intended to appeal to the League of Nations so that the moral pressure of the whole world could be brought to bear.Frau Zeltz, Independent Socialist, then caused an uproar by reminding the interpeliators that they had said nothing about the acts of immoral brutality committed by German soldiers against women in Russia, Belgium and elsewhe Indignant shouts of \u201cunheard of baseness\u201d, prevented the speaker from continuing.Bhe waited unpetrturbed for the storm to pass; then resumed, only to meet with renewed interruptions.\u201cThis is only a racial fight against the blacks,\u201d declared Frau Zelts amid renewed shouts of \u201cleave the House.\u201d 8he retorted.\u201cIt Is the fault of all the capltalistic governments that the blacks have remained behind In civilization.The history of the German colonial police is one long story of German cruelty.\u201d After speeches by other members of

Bank of Montreal statement for the six months to April 30th is & particulariy reassuring document.During the past year the banks, along with the industries of the country have been readjusting thelr business from war to peace conditions On account of the strong position it has maintained, the Bank of Montreal has been able to take care of a very large proportion of the.expanding business of the Dominion and as a result it reports an Increase for the year of $70,000,000 in current loans to Canadian manufacturers and municipalities.The statement of the leading Bank of the country will attract special attention under preset cqn- ditions, as it will afford an opportunity of determining the financial position of the Dominion and the nbility of our banks to meet any ronditions which may arise in the country.As compared with & year ago thers is à marked expansion in all Aspartments and as a result total amets now stand at $371,150,138, agaînat $489,271,197 à year ago.Of the total assets liquid assets amount to $302,821,320, against $293,930, 108 last year, while total current foans and loans to cities, etc, have gained to $253.437,359, compared with $123,643,338, an increase of $69,908,421, Both clreses of Aeposits shown sirady advances durin, sent, and deposits not bears terest n~w stand at $187.7 against $124,736,000, à year while deposits bearing interest have now reached a total of $312,317,174 up from $288,167,111.This represents a gain in total deposits for the year of approximately $77,000,- 000.The Profit and Less Account shows a slight gain as compared with the corresponding period in the previous year.This is probably due to the very much larger busi.nese the Bank Is now handling.Net nrofite for the six months to April 30th amounted to $1,802,588, as compared with $1,751,237 in the corresponding period: last year, After the payment of dividends and making reservation for bank\u2019 premises and war tax, the balance car.riled forward totalled $2,090,440, against $1,661,614 at the end of April à year ago.Throughout the unprecedented ronditions of the war period the Bank of Montreal was reported to be following a very conservative policy, In order to prepare for any conditions which might arise during \u2018he period of readjustment.The country Is now reaping the advantage of this policy and at the same time the Bank is in a position to keep pace with the expanding business of the country.have MILK DRIVERS RETURN New York, May 30\u20148triking milk wagon drivers at & mass meeting today voted to return to work They immediately

extremely popular gure in the public lite of the Empire snd both ss à man and a soldier has won for himself an ablding place in Us affections 'Wo of this country in particular shall always remember with pleasure and appreciation the Duke of Connanght's term of office as Governor General which ovincided with the carlicat and perhaps the darkest days of the iste war, When he came to Canada, it was not without misgivings on both sides of the AUantic.5t wag feared thas as the result of the appointment of a Royal Duke, à regime of elaborate Comrt etiquette might be established as an unwelcome innovation.These fears, however,\u201d were dispelled by the human qualities of the pew Governor, whose unfailing tact and tireless interest fn all the problems and activities of the Dominion soon made him a genuine favorite.ln consenting to an extension of his term of office during the war, when his experience ae a soldier waa of much service to those who were engaged In the cn- rolent and

so added to the debt which Canada as well as the Mother Country already owed him.The great Interest of hin life has always been the Army.It has been sald with justice that from its guns to its galter-buttons, from the standpoint of a Woolwich cadet to that of a Fleld-Marshal, be knows it throngh and through.Itc has served in turn es Engiecr, Gunner, Rifleman.Dragoon, and usear.At

commanded the (roops at Aldershot, in Ireland.and in the Mediterranean, where he was also High Commissioner; from 1904 to 1907 he heid the post of Inspectors General of the Forces, and during the war was appointed Colonel-in-Chief of the Volunteers, and Inwpector of Oversea Troops.He would certainly have succeeded the Duke of Cambridge as Commander-in- Chief it thet dignified office had not been abolished.As it is, he remains a Fleld-Marshal, a real friend to the Army, and 8 practical and devoted soldier who for 32 years has worthily uyheld the militarg\u2014but pever militarist\u2014traditions of his godfather.the great Duke of Wellington.That, however, is only one side of his life and character.Ble is deeply interested in the social welfare of the people, as well as of the Army.and ts a gencrous supporter of charitable and benevolent schemes for the benefit of his fellow-citizens In the United Kingdom.As for the Empire, he has always shown himself its loyal and hard-working servant.lle in, above all, a man of unfailing energy, who always must be doing something.No sooner has one appointment or one journey come to an end than he has embarked on another.Not only during the war, when, like the whole of the Royal Family, from the King and Queen downwards, he set a fine example of unswere- ing and unselfish devotion to daty, dut throughout his life se has constantly been at the disposal of his countrymen.He still hes.as all Canadians will hope, many years of happy and useful life in front of him to continue what he has always been.a fine

perplexity as to the merits of the case.Many people may even be iniuced to believe that the conflict has been produced by militarist aggression on the part of the newly reconstructed State, which la far from being in accordance with the real facts On the contrary It may be snid that, if the Polish army should now be defeated the Republic will be quickly overtiwowa and, what is more serions from a world view-point, the Bolshovists will gain am open gateway into Western Europe.First and foremost, the Poles are fighting a battic for the defence of Western civilization, it is stated authoritatively.Next their object Is to create buffer regions which will protect their own Republic, and with it Western Europe, from fanture Bolshevist onslaughts.Finally, they seek to place themerives in « position to lay solidly the foundations of their resnsci- ated State, without being harassed by coastant fears for the safety of their eastern frontier.For the Polish! Republic this ta in present circumstances, a matter of! great moment.It had a choice between passive resist! ance to Bolshevism and to Bolshevist propaganda and rapid offensive action agains the imminent danger.It was a choice between two evils, The economic and Snancial position of Poland in bad, but she can endure an unfavorable exchange longer than most Continental countries.The food

chaos and their troops demorailsed.The Soviet Government thereupon proposed that peace should be concluded with Poland, bat the Warsaw Ministry believed that the ob.Ject of the Bolshevista was merely to galn time in order to reconstitute their armies.They were conlrmed in! this belief by a series of attacks made by the Bolshe.| vista, who had obviously misjudged streagth of Poland, Marshal Plisudski attacked In his tarn, and at the | reasons or other unworthy motives.But there ought beginning of March inflicted & severe defeat apon them at Moryr, on the River Pripet.at the enstern end of the Pinsk marshes.Tchicherin once more suggeated | peace negotiations, and Poland.in reply, offered a focal armistice at Borieow, on the River Beresing, for purposes of discussion.The answer of the Soviet Gove crmment was an audacious demand for a meeting af continued and Bolshevist attacks werd renewed.Marshal Pllsudski hae already issued n prociama- tion stating that as soon ns & National Government of the Ukraine can be formed, and as soom as it ta clear that the Ukrainians can hold thelr own, the Polish troops will retire within their own frontiers, He has struck a heavy blow at the Soviet Government He has further made it clear that Poland.as her friends always foresaw, may.if she fs wisely governed and directed, be Europe's most important bulwark againe Bolshevism, Tt Is to be hoped, however, that the Poles will not be icd astray by military success The great tasks be- foro them lie within their own boniers When their military operations are comcheded, they will put forward terms of peace.By the degree of statesmanship with which these terms are framed the lusting value of the Polish cnterprise will be judged.Some Things the Public Would Like to Know: (Portinont

the Clarendon Hotel, just opposite the Central Police Station, when Joseph Thabit, of Beauce, led Detestive | Laurett Lacasse to one of the rosms and directed him to arrest Frank Godin, alles Ernest Cyr on the charge of having robbed five thousand dollars.While the detective was taking Godin In charge, Lucien Dufour aliss Iaidger Quinn and M.Jullen alias Joseh Oroulz, Who Were In an adjoining room, jumped trom the window into the yard and sscaped through the adjoining bullding to Bt.Ann street and disappeared.Warrants had been issued In Montreal recently for the arrest of these thres men on a complaint lodged against them by Thabit who alleged that they had robbed him of five thousand dollars at the point of a revolver after an exciting card game in which he had won everything.The story told by Joweph Theblt is an interesting one.It appears that some time ago whilst in Quehec he was Invited to join Frank Godin, Lucien Dufour and M.Julien In a game of poker.Luck was with him in the game and he was winning as he wished.An \u201c pot\" was called an he caught the *\u201copeners\u201d after a number of hands had been dealt.By that time the \u201cpot\u201d contained a substantial amount and when cards were drawn Thabil caught a winner which he backed with his last cent and affirmed that he would wager five thousand dollars on the cards in his hand.His companions to show their good will and fair dealing said they would agree to place all the hands in separate envelopes and accompany Thabit to where he could raise the remainder of the five thousand dol- iars which he wagered.They took A motorcar and went to Beauce where Thabit approached Francois Berberi, & wealthy merchant by whom he was employed, and when he explained the situation to Berber! and told him the cards he held, the latter promptly furnished the required money.The party thea returned to Quebec and when the envelopes were opened Thabit's was the win- nr and he dréw in the \u201cpot\u201d, containing some eighteen thousand dollars, .A little while later as Thabit wanted to quit the game, his companions remonstrated with him and finally drew revolvers, he alleges, and took all the money from him.Hearing later that the men belonged tb Montreal he went thers and lodged complaints against them with the result that warrants were issued for their arrest.While in Quebec this afternoon Thabit saw Frank Godin walking on the street and following him up saw him enter the Clarendon Hotel, He immediately raced to the Police Station and told Detective Lacanse.Frank Godin was lodged In a cell at Central Police Btation and the Detectives and now on the tracks of Lucien Dufour and M.Jullen.BELLECHASSE FIRE UNDER CONTROL News Received Here Yesterday That Blaze Had Been Cheoked \u2014 A

a largely ate tended meeting In their Committes roofné on Bridge St.last evening, when about two hundred retail met- chants wers present.The meeting wad presided over by Mr.Alfred Savard, President of the Associa tion, and the principal object of the meeting was to discuss and con- wider the new luxufy tax which has been imposed by the Federal Government.A very interesting discussion took place, and about twenty five of the leading merchants spoke on the subject, A general concensus of opinion is that the retail merchants are not opposed to the tax Itwelt, but are strongly against the manner in which ict will be collected.A committes was appointed which wil} fully atudy the question and make suitable recommendation with a view to adjusting matters, A night letter was sent to Messrs.C.G.Power and Parent both of whom are in Ottawa at the present time, asking these two members for Quebec to mest the members of the committee appointed at last nights mecting at & very early date to discuss and consider this matter together, and it is hoped that the difficulty will be overcome by making some changes in the way of collecting the tax.Never in the history of the Association had there been so many members at any assembly, and it shows that the retail merchants of Quebec take the new tax very much to heart.NOW QUEBEC 13 BELITTLED Trade Commissioner Finds That Published

to establish, is doing good work in other directions.As already pointed out, Mr.Cote is using efforts to establish his office on a systematic and efficient basis, and complains that he is having some difficulty in obtaining aM the information he needs, on account of there being no Bureau of Information or of Statistics tn this clty that he can apply to.However, he is succeeding, ahd besides his eorreapond- ence with outside capitaliste and proprietors of industrial plants, is preparing plans of the city and other matters in connection with his work.that will, no doubt, lead in the end to tangible results.Mr.Cote is meeting with many surprises in Is work, not the least in the symtemwic ignorance of Quebec city.its resources and trade importance by publicity media.This refers not only to inaccuruey as to population, in rallway guides and other publicity channels supposed to furnish rellable information, hut the Intewt surprise given the Quebec Trade Commnissionet je from the \u201cCanadian Trade Index,\u201d published by the Cafadlan Manufacturers Association, which goes to show, gala Mr.Cote, that Quebec is syatematie- ally ignored and discriminated againet as u result of the small importance given to her Industries, her commerce and her standards of valuation.The Canadian Index only mentions fifteen out of thirty-one boot and shoe industries in Quebec, and though the Boswell Brewery Is one of the oldest and most important In Canada, it Is not mentioned.Only five lumber firms doing business in Quebec are mentioned In the Index: those include the Nesbitt, the Gignac, J.Samson, and W.& J.Sharples, while Price Bron, Dobell, Beckett & Co.John Rurstall & Co.and other prominent fitms in that speclal linc are ignoted.The Price Bros.Liddoes not appear among the

them, at one time, climbed ita steep sides, or \u2018crowned its summit, towering above the green vines which spread themselves over the spaces beneath, Here Paris was wont to store her grain, and it

every day growing louder.In those days, it was & common thing for grain to be taken away secretly from the mills of Montmartre, and carried as secretly to Havre, thence to return very openly by boat to Paris as grain newly arrived from Amerioa, the earnest of a great plenty which was to follow.All through the nineteenth century the mills wers steadily disappearing, as the vines had disappear- od years before.For a long time now, there have been only two, the Moulin Radet and its more notorious colleague the Moulin de la Galette: and now the Moulin Radet 16 threatened with demolition.A movement is on foot, however, to have the old mill removed to another site instead of being demoi- lshed.That would be something, even if it would not be quite the same thing.SPANISH SOCIALISM.Party is Growing Both in Numbers and Ideas One of the most interesting political developments in Spain, during the past twelve months, has certainly been the progress of Socialism.It le something over forty years since Soclaliom was first introduced into the country as an active political faith, but, until recently, it was peculiarly isolated.The Spanish Socialist had little intercourse with Socialists

favor of adherence to the Becond International tn preference to the Third, that Is to say, to the more moderate program adopted at the Herne meeting last year.Nevertheless, there Is a stead- ly growing impression that.before very long, this vote will be reversed, and that the majority of the Boclalist Party will follow the extremists into the camp of the Third, or the Moscow, International.A

the Nocialiet Party \u201ctu on its way alone,\u201d They favor an absolute rupture with all parties whether Liberal, Republican, or Reformieta, and a program completely revolutionary in

Public Selling Securities, But Insiders Are Buying Quietly (Mali And Empire) Not since February of last year has Wall Street seen such a small volume of business ns was done on the exchange today.The market was steady and efforts to break it were unavalling.The shorts are crowding one another so hard that any development of a favorable character wouid cause a wild rally.There seems nothing In sight at the moment, but when the market gaims in such a critical condition the unexpected always happens and stirs up activity.Therefore the market is extremely dangerous for margin traders on either side, but oldtimers think the greater danger is on the short side.The public has been liquidating steadily, but the sheets of leading commission houses show that the insiders and realy important operators have been buying quietly for the Jast week.The short interest seems to be made 19 of numeruus traders ranging from 10 shares to 300 or 300 each.The recognized matistical experts were all preaching panic so industriously that most traders are firmly convinced that the worst is yet to come.There js nothing in the statements coming out of Washington to reassure the public, \u2018for the Reserve Bank has apparently been confirmed by the conference of this week in its attitude toward business men.Gov.Harding thinks a satisfactory credit situation will be seen in the next month or six weeks.Liquidation of Credits Members of the conference lleve that another month will zeneral liquidation of commercial credits.If commercial credits are to he generally liquidated within a month.Wall Street will do well to \u201crace Itself for a shock.1t may be true.as the oldtimers assert, that technical conditions demand a slaughter of the bears, but a month is no time at all for the reduction nf the vast credits of the banks.Any great reduction of the commercial credits will cause serious trouble unless it comes about through à free movement of treight and a breaking up of the congestion on the railroads.The only way fust now to reduce credits is to sell investments.Business men are doing that with a vengeance.They put liberty bonds down today to new low records.and even de a new low price for Pennsylvania stock.\u2018The astonishing thing about the atock market was that it held se firm in the face of the Hquidation.It takes a remarkably 3004 stock to compete with United itates Government bonds selling on a & 3-4 per cent.basis as some did | OM Cr today.Preferred to Baliding loans The low price of liberty bonds is rausing savings banks and savings associations to buy them\u2019 In preference to making loans for home \u2018uilding.This is going to hurt rea) estate.Wall Street had a rumor that the flovernment might ask that Liberty honds be taken off the trading Met on the New York Stock Exchange.Aerious minded bankers could not \u201clieve that any such thing would be considered for to deprive bond holders of a market now would ecipitate very serious trouble and

LETTERS BY THE CANADIAN PRESS (By Canadien Press) New York, May 30.\u2014Another Impressive selling movement took place on the Stock Exchange today, * [the bulk of the enlarged dealings aesording to popular opinion, agsin vepresanting jovoluntary liquidation resulting from the increased tightening of credits Aside from this development which was strengthemed by advices from all sections of the country in- dieating an extension of the campaign against high commodity prices, there were no specific events in explanation of the further reaction.Standard shares suffered in equal measure with speculative issues, testitying to the insistent nature of the offerings.Thess | Were again traceable in large part to out-of- town sources, mainly Western and South-Western centers, although New England also was represented as à heavy seller of coppers.In the final hour, following another dip of prices to the day's lowest levels, a spirited rally set in, oils and sugars leading at extreme gaine of 2 to 7 points Bteels, equipments and motors also were carried upward by the rebound which effaced many of the more extensive losses of the session and contributed largely to the almost steady close.Sales amounted to $1.350,000 shares.Plenty of call money was avail- sable at six percent after the usual opening quotation of 7, but brok- ors represented no change in the long prvailing stringency of time morey, all loans of that character being limited to renewals The weekly statement of the Bank of England failed to confirm recent rumors of further gold exports from London, nor was there anything in the local sterling rate | to bear out such reports.The only noteworthy change in foreign remittances was the further strength ef German exchange.Liberty bonds kept pace with the stock market, rallying briskly from their now low records but te gen- their now low records but the gen- sales, par value, aggregated $31,- 760,000.Old United States 2's bonds lost 1-4 percent on call.Others of that soup remained unchanged.FA AS .NEW YORK MARKET \u201c .Cuusxauaxanuxxsi (By Brunes» & Dupuis) Open.31% 904 Close, ny 0% 103 Alls-Chalmers .Am Beet Sugar ¥.Am Bogch Magneto 103 Am
