Evidence Given Yesterday By Pres.Of Bedford Construction Co.Halifax.N.8, Jan, 18-(By Can.Press)\u2014\u201cGes whiz, Chief We have à fat chance of building this road for from $480,000 to $800,000\", was the remark made hy F.M.Clarke, As- sistant-Chief Engineer of the Provincial Highways Board, to the Chief Engineer, John Rowland, before the work had fairly commenced on the Bt.Margaret's Bay Road, the estimated cost of which was $216,000, according to V.J.Cavicchi, President of the Bedford Construction Company, the contractors, who was on the witness stand throughout this afternoon's semsion of the Royal Conrmission investigating the admin- Istration of the Higbways Act in Nova Scotia.An another stage of the procesd- ings, Mr.Cavicchl was telling of an inspection made of the road by Col Thomas Cantley, & former member of the Highways Board, and himself, ard quoted Col.Cantley as ha said, when the two parted for the day: \u201cWell, Caviccht, it's a fine piece of road, but the quantities are too great\u201d.At this point the witness caught the eye of Col.Cant.\u2018ey who was sitting in the court room and appealed to him for veri- flfontion of the remark.\u201cI didn\u2019t hear you\u201d, was Col.Cantley\u2019s re- foinder.Earlier evidence adduced | Lbetore the Commission had tended to show that tha Bedford Construction Company had am arrangement with the Chief Engineer of the Highways Board for performing work on the 8t.Margaret's Bay Road previous to the actual calling for tenders.The witness explained that this work was cf a preliminary nature, having to do with the clearing of the right of way and that the arrangement was that in the event of the Bedford Construction Company, not obtain.Ing this contract, they were to be paid by succenstul tenderers at the; rate of $280, per mile, which he regarded as & nominal figure It had been shown previousiy that a wide discrepancy existed between the tender for brush matting submitted by the unsuccesaful tender- ers and that submitted by the Bedford Construction Company at ten cents per yard.The witness ex- pained this discrepancy by stating that the nature of the work on the St.Margaret's Bay Road obviated the need for brush matting and for, :his reason his company could have afforded to have underiaken the laying of brush matting wherever required for nothing at ail.\u201cA mere trick of the trade\", said Me.Cavicchi, He was aware that his company had heen permitted to alter its tender after the other tenders had been opened, hut his understanding was that this had heen done at the re- nuest of the Chie?Engineer, John Rowland.owing to the fact that a mistake had been made in estinm- tinæ the original tender.Rexarding the Port Joli-Seble River Road, the witness mid that he had not been on the work two wecks before reaching the conclusion that instead of the estimated cnmt of $91,000, the road would actually cost between $330,000 and $200,000, according to grade.He sald that he had pointed this out to the Chief Engineer and had informed him that uniese he reported the matter to the Provincisd Highways Board, he would.He raid he so reported to the Highways Board on July 31.AWARDED GRAND

query last evening sald that Quebec City Health Department had not as yet taken any steps to perfect an or- canization against the invasion of the contagious disease of small pox which was at the pregent prevailing to such a large extent in the city and district of Ottawa.He said that the matter of organization rested with the Superior Board of Health of the Province, of which Dr.Arthur Simurd of this city was president.He was awaiting instrue- tions from thistBoard, he asid, before taking active measures of precaution.In the meantime the Quevec City Health Department have ever ceaved to take precaution to combat tn disuse and nave, for wie few years past, used every means of prevention, with tbe result that no one case of spall pox bas been reported to the Department for many munths, as exst- ing in this city, and in the present there was no case tu his knowledge existing in this city.In the meantime Hon.Athanesc David, Provincial Becretary, ie alive to the situation, especially as it is under his direction all matters relating to the public health are controlled, and does not intenc that civic politicians in Ottawa shall piuce the Province of Quebec in danger of a small pox epidemic He has taken up the matter with the Quebec Superior Board of Health, with a view to find out what has already been done, and to decide on future action, should circumstances make stringent action necessary.Hon.Mr.David is kept in constant touch with the situation by the physicians of the Superior Board of Health and yesterday Dr.Simard President of the Board left\u2019 fo: alontreal to hoid à meeting of the soard and consult with Dr.Elzear Pelletier and the Chief Inspector of the Board.Dr.Simard sald if the situation demands, orders wil: be immediately issued an to action.What alarms the Provincial authorities Is the reported antagonism of Mayor Plant and other municipal withorities at Ottawa, toward vaccination, nothwithstanding ab school children in Ottawa wer ~ecently vaccinated, and the Superior Board of Health, after : \u2018onsuitation with Hon.Mr.David it was decided to communicate with ir.Amyot, the Federal Deputy Minister of Public Health, and re quest the possibility of having all Federal Civil Servants vaccinated immediately.The practice of vaccination ha: been generally carried out among school children in the city of Quesc, during the past two years without the least opposition or objection to the operations, directed by the Civic Health Department.BWA SECT.ON GRATUITIES Says Attempts To Diotate To Government \u201cLike Baying At Moon\u201d Ottawa, Ont.Jan.18\u2014The hope prevalent among & large section of ex-æervice men in Canada that the coming session of the Federal Par \u20184ament would sgein take up the question of a further cash gratulty to veterans is discouraged by C.Grant MacNeil, Dominion Secretary of the G.W.V.A,, In a letter published in the January issue of the \u2018\u2019Veteran\u201d.Mr.MacNeil writing in reply to a criticism of the editorial attitude of the \u201cVeteran on the subject, decared that it is not so much a question of what the returned men need as one of what they can decently get.Attempts to dictate to the Government, he declares, is mere \u201cbaying at the moon\u201d.While Mr.MacNell wrote the letter on his own Initiative, President Maxwell, of the Dominfon Command.G.W.V.A,, stated this morning that it was thoroughly in avcondance with his views, and he thought expressed the general opinion of the Executive.BOSTON FIRM 18 BANKRUPT Boston, Jan.13-~/The stock brokerage and investment

can comply with the request of Mr.Robileille and his associates who desire that the city should hsna over to them the Montcalm @ar- ket building fof conversion lato a Monument National.When the request was fret made by a group of citizens to give over the Montcalm Market buildings, the city authorl- Lies were anked if they had any legal right to do au in face of the (act that the land on which the arket building ie located, was or- igénaHy the property of the lm- perial Government and after cun- federation handcd over to the Federal Government of Canada in trust.which Government leased this land 10 the city for the express purpose of creating à city market.Mayor Gamson, the city clerk, and even the civic law department was unable to give any iniuvrmation, and since that time a search has been made by the city officials for any document that would establish the agreement between this city and the Jovernment in regard to the property, and until a record of the transaction ls found, the city au- «horities are not in a position to dis nose of the proposition.Prior to Confederation the property on which the Monteaim Mar- «et stands was part o£ the city fortifications and under the control ot the Ordinance Department.In the early 70's, Kent Gate was bullt at the expenses of the Federal Government, and by permission of the Department of Militia, Dauphine street was extended through :the gate to open wp a roadway to connect with St.Patrick street.At this time the Upper Town Market was located in the square opposite the Basilica, and the butchers\u2019 stalls In a long one storey wooden building running from the commer of Buade strect along Garden street up lo St, Anne street, in line with that portion of the Jesuit barracks.When it was decided to demolish these barracks, which also meant the disappearance of the Upper Town Market, the Clty commenced to look around for a site to locate a new Upper Town Market.Kenzie liberal City Hal.When Francois Langeler the was late sold one hai of the land to Christian Brothers, in which now stands the granted, hut as no record of transaction has as yet been found, by the eity authorities.It is sumed however, an now in progress will probably ver:- pre- alty for the express purpose of lo.not the legal right to dispose of it for any other purpose.Government could reciaim the land if at any time found necessary.In keeping with this deed of trust thc Canadian Government cannot sel! and give a deed of sale to any purchasing party in regard to Imperial property formerly controlled by the Imperial Ordinance department.In the meantime the Feodral Government can and has leased parts of these properties for commercial purposes for a term of 99 years, with the understanding thai said leases can he cancelled at any time in case of emergency.Theretore it is presumed that the Ordinance property on which the Montcalm ds ituated was leased for the special purpose of a market, and the city authorities have not tha legal right to dispose of it for any other object.IDEAL SERVICE FOR THE Trains from and to Quebec arrive and depart from Bonaventure Station.The most modern all-steel

The Educational Work Of The 1.0.0.E.Yesterday afternoon in their Heudquarters in the ¥.W.C.A.Building the Daughters pt the Empire of thie city Hateneé to an instructive and Inspiring address dy Miss Conmance Laing, National Educational Secretary, upon tho educational work of the Order.\u2018The speaker was introduced !n a few well chosen words by Mre Harry Morrel, Municipal Education al Secretary and when maine to apeak was presented with a beauti- tul bouquet of mauve orchids by Mra Finnies, Municipal Regent.Mie Laing explained (hat the scheme or the LO.D.E.War Memorlal was a very embitious one entailing a large expenditure, and that it had taken several months of constant organising work to com- plate.An Queber was the firm province to reach \u2018te objective of ths amount at first asked for, It was only fair and suitable that she should expinin to the Quebsners how their money is being spent.In the frst place the War Memorial is being used for two separate though similar purposes.The first these is the establishment of \u201cBuraarlen\u201d\u201c and the second the e- tablishment of the \u201cOverseas Scholarships.\u201d The memorial as a whole has Deen instituted as an appreciation of the services rendered by our brave soldiars during the lute war and as an effort in part to act as parent to the children of deceased soldiers, or of those totally: (eabled, dy proveding them win) the education of which death or disablement bad robbed them.The tendency today in al! classes Is to aspire to a higher education, an aspiration \u2018which the I.O.D.E felt it a 8uty te foster.There were plenty of people of bolshevistic tendencies to teil the children of dead snidiers that their fathers \u2018were fools to give their lives and to point out wih bitternoas the sacrifices entailed by their descandants.It \u2018was the haope of the 1.LO.D.B in the most prae- «al manner possible to combat these principles uy snowing that the largest end perhaps most powerful organisation of women in exisience agreed with thelr fathers and valued thelr macrifice and patriotism.The Bursaries have been established to provide a university education to children of deceased or totally disabled soldiers.A four year course is to be provided to one scholar from each province, and al- roady eight of these candidates have been chosen and started on their careers, Prince Edward Island having made no applination.$100,000 has Deen allocated for the purpose of carrying on this branch of the work, but enuch more will be needed En the future.This year there were only eight applicationa for bursaries, and consequemtiy all of them were accepted, all the candidates having filled the requirements Statistics show that the average age of the soldiers child is now ten years, Year by year therefore more children will become eligible for application, and it will be most disappointing through lack of funds to! be obliged to refuse to help worthy candidates In eighteen years\u2019 time the need for the bursaries will have, disappeared and also the fund for administeriog them at the present rate.The Overseas Bcholarship on the Sami Ieee fe ex of no 24 the Olimination

oats increased from $53,667,000 to $60.- 712,000: hay from $107.093,000 to $132,452,000.The dairy industry did not lag behind, the production of butter which in 1918 amounted to 36.767.287 pounds, valued at $16.- 364.950, was in 1919 37.681.366 pounds, valued at $20,851,523; cheese shows a decreases in quantity produced from 1918 to 1919, but the value Increased about $1,500,000 the yearly output is valued at about $10,000,000, shipments to the United States absorbing about $2,000,000 worth.The acreage planted in tobacco has increased from 22,404 acres in 1919 to 33.000 acres in 1920, yielding 26,400,000 pounds of tobacco;

is just as Important to buy took, equipment, and instruments of production \u2014 In other words, that we invest regularly and conservatively as that we buy coneu- mers goods regularly and conserve tively.People who do this are mne- 8 [ter of their pocket-hooks and not mastered by thelr pocketbooks.\u2019 OI, MUST BE PIPED TO PACIFIC COAST Vancouver, B.C., Jan, 18\u2014\"1t oll from the Fort Norman istrict is to be placed on the market economt- cally t must be brought either through Prince Rupert or Vancouver,\u201d stated (learge IF.Askew, official of whe Hudson's Bay company, in an inteview here.He has just rétarned from the Fort Norman dis.tréct, The oll must be piped practicaity the entire distance, he declared fer the raftway problem fe .auch that brivwing oil out through Edmonton would be @ poor investment nt mum be brought to the Pacific Coam a econcanically 68 possible end shipped to the markets of the world in Mr.Askew's opinon more ofl will he \u2018und \u2018- the Oreat Slave Late Mlatrict than at Fort Norman.A \u2018mample of teh ott which he brought back with him contained mare than eisty per cent gusoline.Intelligent buying on the part of) %: and one Wig NUNUBRBONENEN NONTREAL ERCRANGE 4 2 4 25 26 06 À 98 0 6 0 36 EN Montreal, Jan 18\u2014In e dull asd inactive market on the local Stock Exchauge today the features of prominence were the continued sdvance of Lyall, which, closing at the best at T6, moved up a further five points and gains of § aad à points raspes- tively in Ames-Holden Commis and Canadian Car.\u2018The most active stock was Quebsc Railway, which oa trading ia 90 shares showed à met gain of point at 39%.Bell Telephone showed a substantial advance of 3 pointe at 1034.The paper issues were duli.Rlordon moved up a point to 139, while Spanish Common lost 134 points at 81 and the preferred remained une!
