National Head of the St.Lawrence, by European Shipping Interests.WHITE STAR CO.BUILDING BIG SHIPS.\u2018A well known shipping agent interested in ocean steamships, discussing the enlargement and general improve ment of the Allan Steamship Company\u2019s Quebec property to accommodate the company\u2019s new 18000 ton passenger steamers, the: Algerian and Calgarian, informed a Chronicle representative yesterday that this was not the end but the beginning of large vessels in the St.Lawrence trade tha will make the port of Quebec thesr terminus.The gentleman spoken to did not wigh his namé quoted, and went on to state : \u2014Besides the two large new dt ik by the Allans for es FUME company, capped for insuffidént vosséit, had in miad the building of more steamers which would be of a large type and would not proceed past Quebee.The company.were also in negotiation for two additional big steamers to be added to their Canadian London line that were also likely to make this port their terminal, and the same might safely be said of the additional ships the Allans desired for their Ca- nadian-Glasgow-Havre line.The White Star Steamship Co.were also building two large type of ocean steamers for the St.Lawrence trade that will have a probable thirty feet draught, and make the port of Quebec their terminus.Next year will be the beginning of she turning point for Quebec that will inaugurate a new era of prosperity for the port and city, and the general wish of all steamship men is to sec the new railway terminals will properly get ready to accommodate the future shipping business of the port as soon as possible.In the meantime the Allans and White Star Interests are Bound to come to Quebec, the formeh company have their own dock property that will be improved and got ready, but so far the White Star Company have come to no fixed decision on this hekd.The genera! tendency, however, of all the steamship companies engaged in the passenger business is to have dockage accommodation along the St.Lawrence tiver front in line with Champlain street.The Government is well aware of this fact, and I am in a position to state that experienced elevator engineers are now working on plans for ince Sor ing of elevators to West cationd that will Yive the best and most convenient service to shipping that will make the port of Quebec the head of the St.Lawrence.In the meantime the port of Montreal will have no reason to complaig as the smaller class of steamers will continue up the channel to that port, and Montreal have all the trade she can handle.To-day she is not able to adequately handle the shipping seeking that port, and in a few years hence Quebec will boom with a shipping trade she did not even dream of a few years ago.It is therefore absolutely essential that the port should be immediately got ready as the eye of the principal shipping men in Europe to-day is centred on Canada of the future, and Canadian ports in particular, in so far as it regards their equipment, The dry dock should also be built, The fact that none exists to accommodate the larger type of vessel in case of need is a great drawback to shipping.TERMINALS The Government Expects Soon to Initiate Work of Construction Along Deep Water Front \u2014.The Chronicle is informed from a reliable source that comes direct from Ottawa that the Government expect to shortly initiate the work of construction in connection with the Quebec railway terminals.It is said that after a thorough examination of conditions by competent engineers from Ottawa, a conclusion has been arrived at to commence the building of adequate docks and elevators to meet our requirements.Though nothing definite could be learned respecting the location of the station, the gentleman spoken to said there was a probability that the station would be as originally intended, built at the site of the Champlain market.This might not take the form of a union station, nevertheless, would be a paswiiger terminus, or sub-station to serve the travelling public until such the interests of not lost sight of Quebec as some people would like the public to understand, but on the contrary were using every endeavor to bring on the commencement of the work as soon as possible.It was a work of great magnitude and involved the expenditure of many millions of dollars, Consequentty, the utmost precaution was necessary in preparing and supervising the plans before the order to start could be given.But once the work wa commenced it would be rushed to completion.NO AMALGAMATION OF D.L.A.and N.L.U.Montreal, July 15\u2014A story emanating from Ottawa to the effect that there is to be an amalgamation between the D.L.A.and the 'N.L.U.1» denied by local D.L.A.men to-day and N.L.U.men profess ignorance of any such scheme.FARMER WAS ACQUITTED OF CHARGE Regina, July 15\u2014Samuel Sydney, a farmer near Biggar, convicted in a lower court of manslaughter for permitting his wife and 10-year-old

AUSTRALIA GAINING ON CANADA Reason Why Antipodes Is Rapidly Getting on Even Terms with the Dominion.Montreal, July 15~Thar emigration from Great Britain to Australia was rapidly gaining on emigration to Canada from the same source and thav this could be to à certain extent, attributed to the fact that the immigration policy of Canada was confined largely to certain classes, was the opinion given to-day by G.McL Brown, European Traffic Manager of the Canadian Pacific Railway, who 1s at present in Montreal on his annual visit to confer, with headquarters officials.Mr.Brown declares that the trouble with Canadian immigration is that the government is confining it largely to the agricultural and domestic servant class, whereas there are also any amount of fine English people anxious to enter business, not farming, in this country.They receive more encour- sgement from Australia and other colonies than they do from Canada and are consequently lost to the Dominion.Speaking of emigrants from Greas Britain carried on Canadian Pacific lines he stated that the campaign being carried on by Ontario in that country is resulting in greatly increased immigration to that province, while the Maritime Provinces campaign is proving successful, especially in attracting settlers to New Brunswick.Few English people can be persuaded to come to Quebec, which 1s ively French, but many setplers from Belgium are coming to this province and a few from France.He also said that in the exbibits at the various big shows in the Ole Country, which were great advertisements for the colonies, Canada was far behind Australia, both in the size and the attractiveness of its exhibits, He endorsed the opinion given hy Sir Edmund Osler that the British appetite for Canadian securities was pretty well g 06 eral \u201cvery qllestionable propositions had been floated.SOMEWHAT TIRED BUT DELIGHTED Briuæn Manufacturers Get Back to Montreal After Coast to Coast Trip.Montreal, July 15\u2014The party of British manufacturers arrived in Montreal this evening after a 40-day coast- to-coast tour of the Dominion.Their trip, which was made with the co-op- eration of the Dominion government, for the purpose of investigating covered approximately 10,000 miles, and all the principal cities from the Atlantic to the Pacific were visited.While the tour has been a continuous round of sight-seeing and entertainment since their arrival in Quebec on June 8, the visitors stood the strain well and all return to Montreal in excellent health and spirits.\u201cSomewhat tired, but delighted,\u201d was the expression heard from many of the Britishers.The party will sail from this city on the Allan liner Victorian Friday morning.Tomorrow they will visit the Canadian Pacific Angus shops; on Wednesday they will be entertained by the Board of Trade, ending up by a visit to Maisonneuve factories, while on Thursday they will visit the chief manufacturing plants of the city.INQUIRY INTO FARMERS BANK CASE Toronto, Ont, July 15\u2014The inquiry into the Farmers\u2019 Bank, which resumes to-morrow at 11 o'clock before Commissioner Sir William Meredith, is called several weeks ahead of the expected date.Whether this is merely due to the wisa of the commissioner to expedite the conclusion of the evidence or whether it is significant of new and important developments is not clearly known.Peter Ryan has been instrumental in having the session resumed, as he hopes that the evidence forthcommg will clear his name from any connection with the affairs of the defunct bank.The vacation of Frank Hodgins, K.C.was curtailed by the arrangement, and he arrived this morning from Virginia.He stated that Messrs.Atlas, Ryan and Travers would likely appear before the commissioner tomorrow.Of the first of these, however, he was not sure, as Atlas has been subjected to recent bereavement through the death of his wife.Attas is expected to testity to a converss- tion in which Travers mentioned the recipient of the mysterious $3,000 check.MILITARY MAN KILLED + BY AEROPLANE FALL Sebastopol, June 18-~Lieut.Zekutski fell from a military aeroplane to- day and was killed, still thought to be

forty people, ad- s inquest here to- Coraing, N.ŸY., Ju! der, engineer of th press, which crash the passenger trail costing the lives ol block signal se?at warning fuse placed beside the track by the flagman.Schroeder testified in defence of this that trouble with the injectors which sent the water into the boilers forced him to turn his atten- for signals to the injectors and that in this moment his tfhin shot past the stretch of 2000 feet im which were said to be located: both the caution signal and the flagman.Schroeder made an excellent witness and although he was pn the stand for more than three hours and was cross- examiued at ev: point his testimony .hess a gr de fons | that he hadashen two drinks of denied that ke was intoxicated, He asserted that his emergency injector did not work right because the rod which operated it caught on the cab of the engine which was loose and swaying.He said that he had reported this fact at the Lackawanna repair shop in Buffalo, but that the fault had not been remedied.Schroeder said that his fireman noted that he was having trouble with the injectors and came forward.The engineer asserted that he got down from his seat to listen to the fireman and that he thought that while he was attempting to hear what the fireman said that he passed the caution signal arg the flagman.Schroeder said that he saw the rear of No.9 ahead just after the fireman left, He applied the emergency brake and although he closed the throttle the crash followed.He had no time to reverse his engine, he declared.Several witnesses were called to testify as to whether they believed Schroeder was intoxicated in Elmira, where he lives, the nighe before the wreck.Four Elmira saloonmen bore out Schroeder's contention that he was sober that night, and three of them testified that he took mineral water while in their places of business.Chas.Klapporth, a life-long friend of Schroeder, testified last week that within three hours of the time when Schroeder was «alled to take out his train he saw Schroeder staggering as if intoxicated.Schroeder's testimony this afternoon was largely subdtantiated by other witnesses.An Elmira lunch wagon clerk named Janskowski, however, testified ac the fast witness of the day that Schroeder and another man were in his wagon at 1 o'clock the morning of the wreck.Schroeder had testified that he got home at 12.10 o'clock and had not again left, HUNGER STRIKE IN RUSSIA St.Petersburg, July 15.\u2014A hunger strike has been going on for the past weeks among the 200 political prisoners in Pskoff prison.AUSTRALIA

would be called upon to settle the issue finally, if the United States passed the hill with the free provisions, which he characterized as \u201cunjustifiable discrimination against other nations.\u201d A decision against the United States by The Hague court, he R.ROWLEY, Lake Edward, P.Qsaid, would undoubtedly involve this country in the repayment of millions of dollars to the owners of foreign ships, which might have been taken in as tolls at the canal.It was expected by the State Department officials to-day that the de.the canal legislation would arrive in New York within the next forty-eight hours.When it will reach Washington will depend upon whether Mr.Innes, the British Charge, meets the mail steamer in New York and comes to Washington with his message, or whether it will be necessary for it to come to Secretiry Knox by the way of Kineo, Maine, the summer home of the British embassy.The British argumentative statement probably will be submitted by President Taft to Congress.perhaps accompanied by a special message.GREAT BRITAIN SINCERE IN ITS PROTEST London, July 15.\u2014The Times ae- votes an editorial this morning to an endeavor to remove the idea

POLICY OF ISOLATION.The isolation of the Province of Quebec, which Sir Wilfrid Laurier has so persistently engineered during his lifetime for the secuting of votés, and which possibly he and the political party led by him say not yet be done with, is a question which has reached such an acute bearing that it is almost dangerous for any one to deal with it.For the Province of Quebec itself such a policy is simply ruinous to its best interests.And what is wanted is a movément set on foot whereby our province may know what is best for it as an intrinsic part of the Dominion of Canada, and incidentally an integral part of the British Empire.There are racial and language reasons, perhaps, for this {sols tion, the seeds of which were sown in the past; but, now that the world is becoming more and more of a unit in an altrual sense\u2014in the way its peoples west their clothes and build their homes, and éultivaté a universal \u201cbonhomie\u201d in their manners and eus- toms\u2014surély there is nothing in a difference of origin or tongue to prevent united action in the building up of a great eommonwealth, such as Canada is, within the limits of the greatest empire on earth.And yet it may be looked upan by many as if the Chronicle were taking up with a mistakeg advocacy In saying this mueh, in thé hearing of those of our Provincé, few or many as they may be, who have had a dream that the Dominion of Canada may be made to become a kind of Province of Quebec by and by, with only what have been called French-Canadian influences dominant, The public men of our province who have fostered this dream into « kind of reality\u2014with thé collecting of votes in their own behalf as 2 sole object\u2014 have had nothing but disappointment as 2 harvest.Through their deceptive eloquence and misguided canvass, neither Quebec as a province nor Quebec zs à capital city has kept pace with the other provinces or capital cities of the Dominion.And this has been brought about, not from outside antagonistic influences, but from the influences within that makes the craving for isolation more or less suicidal to the province's best interests, And now it may be said the point iu our history as a province of the Canadian federacy has been reached when our public men have to be called upon to drop all this child's play about providing the most important provinees in Canada with a political playground of its own, wherein the main game to be indulged in will have a racial bias such as Sir Wilfrid Lautier has been delighted to give it all during his parliamentary career.There are so few English speaking citizens nov left in either the Provinee of Quebec or in Îts capital city that it becomes all but ridiculous for the French-speaking eiti- zens to be told by ahy publie man that they ought to be afraid of the influence of such, either in politics or ethics.Such advice has simply come to be the folly of a pleading that no English-speaking resident should be given a living in the province or capital, so that complete isolation from ; all other provinces may be secured.And it is this policy of isolation that every French-Speaking citizen should fight against, if history tells us true how such lsoaltion has even been ruinous elsewhere.Ireland has had its many patriots who preached isolation for Ireland, and it is only now that there is any prospect of Ireland being given even a provincial status, with its population reduced shout one-half and its industries in a languishing condition.And this is what isolation means for Quebec in time, if some of its statesmen do not arise\u2014speaking both French and English as fluently as Sie Wilfrid Laurier\u2014to tell us all that isolation spells ruin for all of us, who look on the Province of Quebee as being out own prévince.WHERE WE ARE AT.When chickens come home to roost to find the perch on which they would take their rest as unstable as it was once represented to he, the cackling becontes all but deafening and rasping to the nerves.When the Liberals were in power at Ottawa and were told again and again that the building of the Transcontinental Railway from ocean to ocean was more or less of a ruinous thing.they laughed all warning to scorn; and now, with over two hundred and fifty millions of the people's money in jeopardy, and with the eastern end of the road still to be built as an opposition road to the Intercolonial, the country\u2019s own road, they have at last become uneasy over the scheme and would now give fits to the present government for not providing a remedy.It will take longer than even the full term of à government to gut the sabame ! .THE QUEBEC CHRONICLE, où a business basis, if it ever can be.Ttié Grand Truok Pacific Railway Cottipany knew too well the unbust- ness kind of railway builders they had to deal with whem tht Transosatinental was first mooted, and undertook to build the part of the road which would suit theit business the most, and leg the Laurier gbvern- ment build for themselves the section of the road which was to run through | our city to the seabdard of the Maritime Provinces.This in itself, one would think, might have brought the Laurié¢r government to see wherein the weakness of their scheme lay.But no, the blindness of their administrative faculties would hear of no obstacle, and now that their lack of foresight Kan left their scheme only half under way and in a shaky condition, their poor chickens who supported them are flapping their wings and cackling angrily, for all they are worth, at the Borden government for not atendylhg the rickety roost reared under fheit own auspices.As we have already said, the Borden gov- ernmest enhnôt possidly set things to righes-in a night's timp, And ie Is the community of Quebec that comes in for the largest share of trepidation \u2014Quebee, that stood by the Laurier government up to the mometit of its demise.The delays in the building of the | Quebec teaminals are not all lying at the door of the Horden government.But for all that, these delays are as dangerous to the best interests of Quebec now as they ever were; and the sooner their are brought to an end the better it will be for the interests of Quebec.The way the city may ote against the Borden government at the next eléction, Just as it set aside Mr.William Price's prospects of being one of the Borden ministry at the last eléction, does not enter in any way into the plea in favor of the city's intérésts being again imperilled by a continuance of the aforesaid delays which began when the Railway Commission was being presided over by the Hon.Mr.Parent, Sir Wilfrid Laurler's right-hand man.The three eléctoral divisions of Quebec may return, again and again, candidates opposed to the Borden interest.\u2018That Is one thing; the eréction of Quebec into a gredt national seaport is quite another.And it is this latter which the Chronicle has always stoo dby, and intends to stand by till the thing is accomplished; and it is our purpose to return to our pleading from day to day until the injurious delays inaugurated under a Liberal regime are put an end to.A PEOPLE'S VERY OWN PROBLEM.That the price of coal in Quebec should be higher than it is in Montreal and other places is the coal-burn- er's very own business to look after, snd fook after it they ought to do of their own initiative at once and with due concern for their household interests.The coal merchants maintain that the commodity is searcer to get than it has beer for some years back.But is it any scarcer to get here in Quebec than it is in other places?The whole matter can easily be settled by the coal merchants of Quebec taking united action towards convincing the people of Quebec that they\u2014the coal merchants-\u2014are getting their supplies at the centre of the market, with no percentage of a combine to pay as a tax for being permitted to sel either in the city or out of it.As we said the other day, the price of « commodity is regufated for the most part, where the demand is steady, as it is in the case of eoal and the conditions of our climate, by the conditions of supply.And if coal is scarcer to get this year than #t has been before, the price cannot but be higher.Still it will be interesting to watch what the citizens ate going to do to be better informed about the state of the market, even if they be powerless to lower the price of what they necessarily must have.Can the statement that coal is dearer in Quebec than it is in Montreal und other places be upheld by the fact that it costs more to bring coal to Quebec than to Montreal?A meeting such as was held the other night\u201d in the Victoria Hotel by the men of our city of French birth carries its lenson with it.The men of our city of English birth, Scottish birth and Irish birth can have an en- Joyable time-\u2014a most enjoyable time with no harm to the broad-minded Canadianism that runs in onr common citizenship, no matter how often they meet to recall the scenes and songs and foli-lore of the land wherein they of their fathers Ars saw the light, On the other side of the line the men of Canadian birth have established thelr Canadian societies; but no one bas ever been so foolish as to suggest that the politics of the United States or of anywhere eles shéuld have a place in the co-relationshly Uf, ibise | sub-nationallsts in our midst - \\ Now that Msjor-Oeneral Strahas given Quebec greeting again lias had a \u201clast Ward\" about the little brass gun which stands ia the parade ground of the Citadel, we may a!l feel assured that the best place for the œun is where it 1s.As a visiting American once said to the military attendant who was showing him round the Citadel one day, with not a little of the alt of one in command in his manner: \u201cWell, friend, you are quite welcome to keep the gun, while we make the most of Bunker Hill and its vietory.\u201d And so the gun remains and will remain, even if some of our visitors would rather \u201cit w'ernt thar.\u201d It is a little too far-fetched of a surmise that the moths of last night have taken up a defence of the common house Ay by showing us what a blessing one nuisance may look like when a grester nuisance is brought alongside of it.Quebec can now understand what some of the Plagues of Egypt looked like in their earlier stages to the everydsy man, But what hes the entomologist of Laval to say abont this very late visitation of the moth to our hereabouts, and what are these a same annoyances after, as they préss through the millions of their fellows, tr, witness the brilliancy of our electric street lamps?It was certainly a good thing for Canada that the members of the British Manufacturers\u2019 Association should see with their own eyes what the National Policy is doing for us.Canada is no longer \u201ca hewer of wood or a mere drawer of water.\u201d We have a prosperity which we have made ourselves, as well as a prosperity arising from our manifold resources of nature\u2019s own bestowing\u2014in the shape of lumbér limits, mineral veins, wheat lands and fisheries.And the story which the British manufacturers carry back with them tothe Motherland cannot but help out the good problem of Empire Consolidation.Now that we have the Citadel's band in active service again on the Dufferin Terrace.dispensing to us the choicest of musical numbers and with everybody in good humor, there is no need to prolong the controversy over the \u201clate unpleasantness.\u201d Thé band is not likely to be any the worse for being talked about, or having its relationship with the public more clearly defiged.Indeed, its Inspirating programmes of choice selections are going to be none the less appreciated, nay, perhaps all the more appreciated, now that a pleasant \u201cmodus vi- vend!\u201d has heen agreed upon.When a controversialist cannot get the better of his friend in atgument he generally selects a brickbat with which to knock him over.He cannot tell hig opponent that he is an ignoramus and keep within the prope rlimits of friendly discourse.But he is never afraid to call him an Optimist or a Pessimist, as the term appeals to him as the right dink of \u201cshillelagh\u201d to use.Anothér name for the poor pessimist is the \u2018\u2019knocket-gnat,\u201d if you will; but what an optimist is may be read in these choice and kindiy writ- pen stanzas: There was once a man who smiled, Because the day was bright, Because he slept at night, Because God gave him sight To gaze upon his child; Because his little one Could leap and laugh and run, Because the distant sun Smited on the earth, he smiled.He amiled because the sky Was high above hig head, Because the rose was red, Because the past was dead: He never wondered why The Lord had blundered so That all things have to go The wrong way here below The ovet-arching sby.He toiled and still was glad Because the ait was free, Because he loved.and she, That claimed his love, ad he Shared all the joys they had! Because the grasses grew, Because the sweet winds blew, Because that he coul § hew And hammer, he was glad.Because he lived and smiled And did not look ahead With bitterness and dread.But nightly sought his bed As calmly as a child, And people called him mad For always being glad With such things as he had.And shook their heads and smiled.\u2014 Merchant\u2014Our salesmen must show tact.Now, for instance, If a lady came in the store and asked to gee some false hair what would you say to her} Bright Boy\u20141'd ask her what shade her\u2014her friend preferred, an'\u2014 \u201cEnough.\u201d sald the merchant; \"name your own salary.\u201d CASTORIA Por Infants and Children, The Kind You Have Always Bought Boars the Slgaatare of TUESDAY.JULY 16, 1912, THESE OL PEOPLE OWE THEI HEALTH To The Wondorivi Powers Of \u201cFroll-a-tres\u201d\u2019 Mr.N.Joubert of Grande Ligne, PQ.says: À \u201cFor more than 10 years I suffered with Constipation and Piles.I tried many remedies, but none did me good.After taking four boxes of \u201cFruit-atives,\u201d I am well, 1 am now over 80 years of age.\u201d .Mr.Wm.Pitt, general store-keeper of Shanly, Ont, writes:\u2014\u201cI am 67 years of age and long suffered tortures from Headaches, due to Stomach troubles.I was advised to try \u201cFruit-a-tives.\u201d 1 did so and they completely cured me.\u201d Mr.Wm.Parsons of Otterville, Ont, says: \u201cI am 79 years old and a great believer in \u201cFruit-a-tives.\u201d 50e a box, 6 for $2.50, trial size, 25c.At all dealers or from Fruit-a-tived Limited, Ottawa, nom mens se, LADIES\u2019 EMPORIUM Saturday Bargains.Big Sale now on.Goods still further reduced.Blouses, size 34, 36, 38.Price 55e, 7% and .osc Blouses, size 38, 40, 42 and 44.Price 756.and .8c Childten\u2019s and Misses\u2019 White and Colored Dresses, all sizes.Price SSc., 65e.75c., 85e.up to.82.28 Ladies\u2019 Fine Serge, Broad Cloth, and Cheviot Costumes and Dresses.Regular value $20.00 to $50.00, All guaranteed this season's style.Sale Ptice .ses 400 vuescens $10.00 Misses\u2019 Fine Serge, Cheviot and Grey Hair Line Suits.Regular value $17.75 to $25.00.Sale Price 4 $5.00 For Saturday Bargains, try :- ++ -D.R.MURPHY'S, 46 Fabrique Street.Phone 22.tues.sat, Hours of Consultation :\u20149.00 am.to noon, 200 p.m.to 5.00 p.m., and 7.30 p.m.to 8.30 p.m.Telephone : Office, 4978 ; Ÿ Residence, 1234.DR.RENE TURCOT, Ex-House Surgeon of Notre § Dame Hospital, Montreal, ex- pupil of Paris and New York hospitals.SPECIALTY\u2014Diseases of the eyes, ears, nose and throat.§ Office : Corner St.John and B St.Angele streets, opposite the § BR Bell Telephone Co., Quebec.junelSx2m CROTEAU & GRENIER tard Burrs/ére Plans for Subdivisions 81 St.Peter St.Quo'yss Mira Asairaess Batigine Tel 2713 .[e1if:1.1.3 W.MARTIN & CO.2, 4 and 6 D'Youville Street.PHONE 3020, Furniture repaired, recovered polished, packed and shipped.Estimates free.Repairing old furniture a specialty.Mattrasses remade.Cartage done.NOTICE Is hereby given that the Pier at the mouth of Cap Rouge River is submerged as well as the other deep water Pier that was there up to last winter at the end of the long wharf.The position of the pier at the mouth of the Cap Rouge river is as heretofore shown by a flat buoy by day and 8 white light by night, and the position of the deep water pier recently taken at the end of the long wharf is in a straight line with the said flat buoy and about 600 feet to the west.W.A.KINGSLAND, Agent.INPERIAL BANK OF CANADA DIVIDEND NO, 88 Notice is hereby given that a dividend at the rate of twelve per cent (12 per cent) per annum upon the paid-up capital stock of this institution has been declared for the three months ending 31st July, 1912, and that the same will be payable at the head office and branches on and after Thursday, the ist day of August next.The transfer books will be closed from the 17th to the 3Ist July, 1912, both days.inclusive.By order of the Board.D.R.Wilkie, General Manager.Toronto, June 26th, 1912, Joncas, Trembley & Maloula CHR Englasors & Land Servoyers Benk Nationale Building St.Roch.Phone 2773 - QUEBEC.GARDEN HOSE AND\u2019 REELS Lawn Mowers \u2019 Grass Shears Agricultural Tools of all descriptions Poultry Netting ana Fencing General & Heavy 4 Hardware, .w= AT THE GANG HARDMARE G0 MEGNATIC TWO DOLLAR SAFETY RAZOR À Black Csrdboard Box with Mirror and Shaving Brush and Soap and !/ doz.Blades To be hai at S.J.SHAW & CO.A LEOFRED (Grad.Laval snd McGilL) CIVIL ENGINEER SPECIALTY WATER WORKS 19 St.John £e, Quebec.Phone 545, INVENTORS 0 ah Seay ray FETHERSTONHAUGE & SON LOWS ALPHONSE POULIOT, LL, Legal Rorlear FANK OF NOVA SCOTIA BUILDING \u2014s = \u2014_\u2014 Ladies\u2019 Trimmed Hats Half Price Children\u2019s Straw Hats 33!

Building in New York, Including Tower, 750 Feet High.New York, July 15.\u2014The Woolworth Building has stopped climbing at last.At noon on July 1 the last steel girder was riveted into place on the pinnacle above the fifty-fifth story.Simultaneously an American flag was unfurled on a8 3-foot steel mast projecting skyward from the summit, there to fly until replaced by a permanent banner when the building is ready for tenants.It will be the loftiest flag raising ever seen on an office building.The only structure higher than the Woolworth Building is the Eiffel Tower.There was no ceremony when the steel skeleton was articulated up thers where the heat of Broadway is unfelt.The same workmen whom New York has been squinting at for months as they stood nonchalantly on bits of steel while cables lifted them from the street, thirty stories, swung the final fragment into its niche and directed the electric hammer that fastens the bolts.They stepped the mast and let loose the flag, 24x12 feet, that signifies completion.The Woolworth Building, it is stated, will begin admitting tenants about the last of October, but it will be February before construction is entirely completed.It was said also that about one-half of the space of the main building, which is thirty stories high, has been rented.Mr.Woolworth expects that the rent roll will be about $2.500,000 a year.When completed the building will have cost approximately $13,500,000\u2014for the land, $4.500.000; for foundation digging, $1,000,000, and for construction, $8,000,000.To House 10,000 People.About $8,000.000 of the money re- Quired was obtained in France, so that the French people may claim an interest in the world\u2019s two tallest buildings \u2014the Eiffel Tower and the Wonlworth Building.More than $48,000 worth of glass will he required to fill in the windows to about 2000 offtees.The daily population of the building should be about 10,000.The man for whom the building is being erected is F.W.Woolworth, who was born poor in Watertown, N.Y.; started » § and 10 cent store in the middle 70s, and spread hls venture over the country until\u2014the Woolworth Building.Work on the foundation of the steel and terra cotta mountain that has \u2014 arisen on a 200-foot plot at Broadway, Barclay street and Park place, opposite the Federal Building, was begun on November 4, 1910.The caissons went down to solid rock 115 feet.They were completed on August 24 of last year.The foundations are sixty-six piers of re-enforced concrete.The rapid rise of the Woolworth Building has made even those persons blink who have seen it every day.The area that it covers is considerably larger than was originally contemplated.After some of the foundation work was already under way the site at Broadway and Park place was expanded until it covered the whole block front on Broadway between Park place and Barclay srteet.The architect, Cass Gilbert, had to alter the situation of the tower on his plains.The tower is 366 feet higher than the main part of the building.From the street the tower looks as if two men would be cramped in it.In reality it is 86 feet long and B84 feet wide.On its top, beneath the flag, is to be placed an electric searchlight.The fifty-fourth floor is to be used as an observatory.A luncheon club is to have the twenty-eighth floor.In the basement there will be a swimming pool, a restaurant and a rathskeller, There are to be thirty-four passenger elevators, twenty-four of them grouped near the Broadway entrance.In addition there will be four fireproof and smokeproof stairways.The Waolworth Building will weigh about 250,- 000 tons.HAPPY OLD-TIME PICNIC.Remember the Biscuit Insisting on Kicking to the Chicken?Who has not stored in the memory of his youthful days a picnic in the woods lacks one of the joys of life.It may be a school picnic or any kind of § picnic where they all come with baskets of chicken, beef, mutton, pork, potato salad, baked

cheese, etc, etc, and then spread tablecloths on the grass and put all these fascinations on them, so that the pie nudges the chicken.and the pound cake leans on the cottage cheese, and the jelly

of the Review of Reviews: Otto M.Willard, President of the Baltimore & QOhle Railroad, and P.H.Morrissey, former President of the Brotherhoou of Railway Trainmen.It was decided that witnesses callee by the two sides need not be sworn, but that any statements made or facts presented could be challenged if their accuracy was questioned.Warren S.Stone, chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, occupied the whole afternoon presenting the case of the men.He reviewed the differences between the railroads and the engineers.Mr.Stone said the men based thete claims chiefly upon two grounds, the responsibility of the engineers while on duty and the skill required of an engineer.He said that no matter how well a railroad is built and equipped or how perfectly it is f.tted with modern devices, it is upon the engineer that the responsibility for the safety of trains fall.He pointed out that the engineer must pass a rigid examination and be pronounced physically perfect before he is given charge oi an engine, Insurance statistics showed, Mr.Stone continued, that the average working life of a locomative engineer is only IÏ years and 7 days, and he added that if a man has only that much labor to sell he should be paid more than a living wage.Mr.Stone was interrupted by a running fire of questions from members of the commission.He answered them ail and submitted reports

tour in the West, sid today that there was 3 shertage of labar, but the construction work qf the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway between Winnipeg and the coast was being pushed forward.however, questionable whether the company would be able to link up the line before next year.My.Chamberlin, who was very confident as to the prespecis of a good harvest, remarked that during the years that he had been in the West he did not remember seeing the crops took so promising as at the present time.That the questien of rates through the Panama canal has little interest for Canadian railways was the rather surprising view expressed by the president of the Grand Trunk.\u201cI don't think the Canadian railways have had anything to do with the protest made hy the British gavern- ment against discriminatory rates through the Panama canal in favor of American ships,\u201d he sald, \u201cbecause in my opinion very little Canadian traffic will go by that route.My belief is that the life-blood of the Canadian Pacific is the traffic east and west, and it wilt be the same with the Grand Trunk Pacific.\u201d Asked if the Grand Trunk Pacific bad ever contemplated running à line of steamships from Prinee Rupert to Furope via the Panama canal, Mr.Chamberlain replied in the negative, adding that he did not believe that any other Canadian railway had contemplated such a move either.As regards the transportation of grain, he remarked that the whole of the Canadian crop of last year would have had to be dried before it could be transported by such a hot route as the Panama canal.The present route, he said, was much colder and therefore more desirable, and the trans-shipping of the rain at Fort William, Georgian Bay, Montreal or other ontlets all had the effect of drying it.It must he remembered that the Canadian farmer wanted to markét his grain as soon as it was thrashed; he could not wait to dry and stere it.FARMER WAS KILLED BY LIGHTNING Guelph, Ont.July 15.\u2014John

that a murder and a suicide bad been committed in the County of Beauce and that the provincial police and Coroner Cantin were on the scene, and that the latter had begun an inquest on the body of one of the victjms, the young wife of the supposed suicide.The news, as received, was to the effect that a young couple, married about 15 months ago, had had some trouble, and that the husband in a fit of jealousy ha dcut his wife's throat with a razor and had subsequently thrown himself into a pond known in that locality as \u201cJimmy's Pond.\u201d As a matter of fact, the unfortunate young woman was brutally murdered, but from all appearances and from news received from Beauce yesterday, it is most likely that the husband has skipped the country.It is true that he left his clothing, boots and socks on the border of the pond, which was dragged for several days last week, but no body was recovered.The name of the husband is not yet known, but from the latest information he married an English immigrant girl about a year ago last spring, taking her to his shanty, situated in a bush on the sixth range of the Township of Cumberg.This township is in the parith of St.George, Beauce, which is the furthest parish in that county and quite near the Ameircan boundry line.The young husband also had a couple of brothers, who also occupy log cabins in the bush a short distance from that of the murderer's, and it is said the trouble came out of the suspicions of the latter that one of the brothers was too friendly with his wife.However, after committing the deed the murderer immediately went to one of his brothers and told him that he had murgered his wife and then disappeared and has not since been seen.The spot where the deed was committed is far from civilization and it was only at the end of last week that the authorities were informed of what had occurred and despatched the provincial police.The inquest has been adjourned for a few days.QUEBEC HARBOR COMMISSION Held Special Mesting to Consider Improvements on Grain Elevator, ; ee rp\u2014\u2014 =.The Quebec Harbor Commission held a special meeting yesterday.which was presided over by the President, Mr, V.Chateauvert.\u2018The business discussed was the improvement of the grain elevator formerly owned by the C.P.R.and later purchased by the Commission.This elevator has been leased for some few years past to Mr.Richardson, of Kingston, who has done considerable locai business.Last winter Mr.Richardson pointed out to the Harbor Commission that owing to the ineffiziency of the elevator he was placed at a disadvantage in the intake and outlet of grain from the elevator.To commence with the cereals had to be landed on the Louise Embankment by means of a floating elevator, and from there carted into the elevator coffers, which was not only a slow process but expensive hauling.The Quebec Harbor Commission a month ago took the request of Mr.Richardson under advisement and decided to expend $25,000 on the needed improvements provided the lessee would conform to certain conditions of meeting the expenditure.These conditions have been agreed to, and Mr.Jameson, the expert grain elevator builder, instructed to make the necessary plans for the improvements, which will include a marine leg which will be finished fu two weeks hence, and the construction work proeeeded with, No other business was

RECORD Giants of Present and Past Hold 19 Victories \u2014 Records Give Luby and Radbourne 18.History that was supposed to have been accurate history in baseball has been proved to be faulty.John Luby does not hold the major league record for consecutive victories as a pitcher, \u2018The record is held conjointly by Timothy Keefe, formerly a pitcher of the Giants, and Richard Marquis, or \u201cRube\u201d Marquard, as he le better known, now a member of the Giants.Since 1890 it had been presumed that Luby held the pitching record.In that year Luby was a member of the Chicago Cubs, then known as the Colts.Anson was captain of the team and the fight was on between the Brotherhood League and the National League.The record for Luby was claimed by a Chicago writer.He went so far as to give the dates on which Luby won, and so specific were his figures that it was generally accepted that he must be right, and the record was placed in record books.The games which were accredited to Luby, and which have supposed to comprise his consecutive record, began on July 8 and finished October 3.Supposed Records.The games are as follows: \u2014 July 8.\u2014Luby 3, New York 2, Welsh.July

box, The game of July 29, accredited to him, is one in which he never pitched.Luby's record began August 6 and followed steadily until the finish of the season.The writer has been through volumes of files to try to obtain accurate information.The editor or Sporting Life in Philadelphia has thoroughly reviewed his files.The editor of Sporting Life gives Luny seventeen victories in succession.The writer finds eighteen games In succession for the Chicago pitcher.He won a game on August 13 against Cincinnati, which seems to have been overlooked by the editor of Sporting Life.The score was 6 to 4 in favor of Chicago, and Luby pitched against Mullane.Correct Record, Luby's correct record is, therefore, as follows: John Luby, Chicago, N.L., 1800.50 Feet, 5 1-2x4 Box.High or Low Ball

pitched nine full innings, except that on April 11, the first day of the season, darkness set in and the game was called at the end of the sixth inning.On May 1 the Giants were so far in the lead that Marquard was taken out at the end of the seventh inning to give him a rest.On June 17, against Pittsburg, he was compelled to go eleven innings.In the game in which he was taken out of the box to permit another player to bat for him some small minded and pusiilanimous individuals undertook ta belittle his record on the ground that he was not entitled to the game because he had been sent to the bench.He was entitled to the game, and all of the rulings which have been made in baseball for the last five years have been made on exactly the same ground.The only trouble with the other fellows was thar they were nog up to date and did not realize that there is no fixed set of rules by which pitchers are rated.The question has been argued often enough by this time for everybody to be familiar with it.No exception way made in Marquard's case, for every pitcher hes been \u2018rated on the same | } QUEBEC CH ee + PT RONICLA, Made in Canada Wm.Wrigley Jr.Co, L(d.7 Scott Street, Toronto,

a season and push right through until July 8 without a defeat seems the finest performance in the history of the national game, Marquard and Keefe are the kings, and many a day is likely to elapse before their records are equalled or surpassed.MR.CARNEGIE'S QUARTER.The thought that Andrew Carnegie, steel matser and the man who made Pittsburg famous, should ever be reduced to having to borrow smal change from an acquaintance,\u201d said the veteran ship news reporter, \u201cseems preposterous.That he was, however, and that when he was about to occupy one of the most expensive staterooms in a steamship about to steam for Europe, is a fact that any of the reporters who saw him borrow twenty-five cents from another reporter can ver.fy, \u201cOne day not many years ago Mr.Carnegie, followed by a porter heavity laden with travelling bag, steamer rug and other impedimenta ascended the gangway to the deck of the ship, where he was ferociously set upon by a group of reporters hungry for an interview.\u201cAndrew called a steward, who took the bags from the porter.Then he felt in one pocket and then in another.An expression of surprise came over his face and he hesitated as if not knowing what to do.\u201cAt this time one of the newer ship news reporters, who had not been present at the interview, came up and spoke to Mr.Carnegie, but before the reporter could think of a suitable question Mr.Carnegie said:\u2014 \u201cYoung man, can you lend me a quarter?I want to give it to this porter.\u2019 \u201cThe reporter did have a quarter and gave it to Mr.Carnegie, who in turn handed it to the porter.Then the reporter obtained his interview and the ship steamed away, \u201cAbout a year later Mr.Carnegie was again about to leave for Europe, and the same reporter was at the pier.\u201c\u201cMr.Carnegie\u2019 he said, \u2018do you have a quarter to spare?\u201cQuarter?Quarter?I don't know anything about a quarter,\u2019 the steel master answered.\u201c'Why,\u2019 replied the reporter, \u2018that quarter I lent you a year ago,\u2019 Then he explained.\u201cAh, well) said Mr.Carnegie, tak- 171-178 Notre Dame des Anges St., You find that the necessity tc work
