Ottawa, Jan.14\u2014In the correspondence laid upon the table of the House this afternoon by Premier Borden, the Hon.Mr.Monk gave the reasons for his resignation.Mr.Monk resigned on October 18 He stated in his letter that he could not concur in the decision arrived at to place an emergency contribution of $35,000,000 at the disposal! of the British government without giving the Canadian people an opportunity to express its approval before.Such a policy would be ' at variance, he stated, with his pledges.He believed that the act went beyond the scope of the constitutional act of 1867.He concluded with an expression of regret on account of his agreeable relations at all times with Mr.Borden.ACCEPTED WITH REGRET.Tire Premier in_ his reply accepted the resignation with regret, but stated Prat he information, which had been placed before the cabinet by His Majesty's Government disclosed so grave a situation that in the judgment of the Premier the granting of immediate and effective aid was necessary in the interest of the Dominion as part of the British Empire.Such a step was, however, of a temporary character and absolutely distinct from a permanent policy of co-operation, in imperial defense, which, when formulated, ought to be placed before the people for this consideration and approval.The letter concluded with an expression of regret at the resignation of Mr.Monk, as the Premier recognized and appreciated the very earnest devotion which Mr.Monk had given to the deputies of his office and also the very great assistance and kindly consideration which the Premier had always received at the hands of Mr.Monk.BLAIS ELECTED MAYOR OF ISLAND OF ORLEANS At a meeting of the Municipal Council of St.Petronille, Island of Orleans, held yesterday, Mr.Joseph

Ottawa when the company goes there and probably not in Torontolt is also understood that \u201cHerodiade\u201d will not be produced in Quebec, at the definite request of thé Archbishop there.When questioned on this subject, the officials of the opera company said they had not yet decided whether or not to produce \u201cHerodiade\u201d in Quebec., Lt-Col.Robt.Meighen.in speaking to a Star representative, stated that any difficulty that might have arisen regarding the production of \u201cZaza\u201d by the Montreal Opera Co.was of a private nature, and would not deny of confirm that Archhishop Bruchesi had requested that the opera be cancelled from the list: Regatding the cancellation of the opera, Lt.-Col.Meighen said the management had not arrived at a definite decision.:

PREBBYTERIAN MINISTER DIES AT TORONTO Toronto, Jan.14\u2014After a two months illness, Rev.Henry M- Persons, pastor emeritus of Knox Presbyterian Church, died this morning, in the 75th year of his age.He was one of the oldest and best known Presbyterian ministers in Toronto.Death was due to general debility, brought on by old age.Dr.Parsons was born at East Hoddam, Mass., Nov, 13, 1838, the son of a Presbyterian minister there.He received his education at Yale University, and at the Yale Theological Seminary.His first charge was at Springfield, where he remained for years.Then moved to Boston and Buffalo.In 1880 he was called to Knox Church, Toronto, to succeed the late Dr.Topp.and for twenty years was active in the pastorate there, In 1900 Dr.Parsons retired from the active

Boy made up their minds to take up arms a second time.The Turks last week ware threatening to leave London and let matters take whatever: course they might.Now the Balkan delegates are convinced that the Turks are merely drifting without a fixed policy, and they have decided to end the seemingly fruitless debates and wire pulling and begin the battles anew where they left off more than a month ago.TURKS ARE EVASIVE.The Ottoman government failed to convene the Grand Council to-day and apparently has no intention of meeting the allies\u2019 ultimatum on Adrianople.The allies do nat believe in the efficacy of the note which the powers will present at Constantinople because it is couched ic too mild terms and simply advises Turkey to submit to the fate of war and abandon Adrianople for fear of complications in other parts of the enrpire at a time when Turkey could not find moral! or financial support in Europe.The Turkish government knows that this means nothing, hecause it is aware that the powers will be unable to agree upon any coercive measures.Thus the presentation by the powers of the note, it is pointed out, might mean simply the opening of a new chapter in the already wearisome diplomatic parleying and the shifting of the debates trem one between the hel- ligerents to one between Tuskay and the powers.Balkans Want Relief.The Balkan kingdoms, moreover, are anxious to obtain relief from the heavy burdens of keeping their armies on a war footing indefinitely.Wishing.however, to observe all the diplomatie courtesies, they have given the powers a reasonable time to agree on the note, frame it and present it to Turkey.But this once done, if Turkey.as is probable, fails to yield, they are determined to act.Their govern ments have agreed to call another sitting of the conference through Sir Edward Grey and Rechad Pasha, who, according to rotaticn, would be the next presiding officer.They will then simply announce their decision definitely to break the negotiations and also thank England for the hospitality extended, and the conditions of fair play under which the discussions occurred.Immediately afterward, Sofia, Belgrade and Cettinje will denounce the armistice.and the Servian, Bulgarian and Montenegrin commanders will notify the Turkish headquarters that hostilities will be resumed within 96 hours.Toronto, Jan, 14\u2014Temperature has risen

U.8.SECRETARY OF BTATE AGREES WITH PRESIDENT TAFT IN REPLY: New York, January 14\u2014A despatch from Washington to the New York World says :\u2014 Secretary of State Knox will reply to Great Britain on the canal tolls question in a few days Throughout his reply to Sir Edward Grey, Mr.Knox hag confined himself to an argument that under the Hay- Pauncefote treaty the American Government asg the right to exclude from the payment of tolls any of its shipe which do not compete with those of Great Britain.AGREES WITH TAFT.Secretary Knox follows out closely the argument used by President Taft in his memorandum when he signed the Panama Canal Bill, around which the protest of England is built.He holds as did the President, that Article 3 of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty was adopted by the United States for a specific purpose, namely, as the basis of the neutralization of the canal.Secreta¥y Knox's interpretation of the words, \u201cThe canal shall be free and open to the vessels of commerce and of war of all nations observing these rules on terms of entire neutrality, so that there shall be no discrimination against any such nation, of its citizens or subjects, in respect of conditions or charges or traffic or otheÿwise,\u201d is that all nations will be treated alike and no discrimination made by the United States against any one of them observing the rules adopted by the United States.He takes a view contrary entirely to that held by Sir Edward Grey.Surrendered No Rights.Secretary Knox denies that there is anything in the treaty which can be interpreted as meaning that the United States, when it agreed to the Greaty, surrendered its rights to regulate its own coffmeree through the canal.He contends that Great Britain is trying to read into the tresty the question whether the United States has surrendered the right to regulate its own shipping through the canal.Secretary Knox has answered the other objections raised by Great Bpitain, one of which was the expressed fear that if the protest against the granting of free passage through the canal to coastwise ships was not passed and insisted upon.the subsidy granted to the coastwise trade would in time be extended to all American shipping, and consequently come in direct conflict with British shipping.Further Exchange of Notes.Secretary Knox holds in his argument that the p:emises assumed by Cireat Britain are not sound: He closes his argument by asking for the further exchange of notes on the question, and expressing the willingness of the administration to do everything to adjust the dispute.YACOVCLOFF HANGS ON FRIDAY NEXT CABINET DECIDES LAW MUST TAKE COURSk\u2014MAN IS SANE.\u2014 Montreal, Jan.14\u2014Yacovoloff will be hanged on Friday.The Cabinet Council has decided that the

Units in Canada -Not Taken Seriously.3 (Special to the Chronicle.) Ottawa, Jan, 14\u2014If the Liberals intend to obstruct the Naval bill, or to attempt to force an election, there were no signg of it today.On the contrary, Hugh Guthrie, one of the recognized Ontario Liberal leaders, held out the olive branch and suggested that the bulf between the two parties be bridged and that a compromise .policy .be .adopted.As Mr.Guthrie's idea of compormise consisted to a very large extent of an acceptance by the government of the Laurier proposals, the suggestion is not taken seriously.The Liberal opposition has apparently come to an end.The prediction ig made tonight that the bill will pass in less than a couple of weeks.GENERAL APATHY SHOWN.General apathy was shown in the debate today.While the government benches were well represented when Speaker Sproul opened the House, there was barely a bakers\u2019 dozen of the Liberal members present.Mr.Guthrie got little encouragement from his own side in the way of applause and his whole speech as well as the general attitude of his fellow members was in striking contrast to the spirit of, defiance shown before the House adjourned for Christmas recess.Mr.Guthrie's compromise proposal was that the government reduce the number of its dreadnoughts from three to two, to correspond with the two which were to head the Laurier feet units.He proposed that they be built in England \u2019nstead of Canada.as the Liberals had suggested.The balance of the ships in the two units would be built in Canada.This plan he thought would apen up no conslitutional difficulties, while the question of the appointment of a Canadian minister in London should be held over for later consideration.Praise for Mr.Borden.Mr.Guthrie warmly congratulated Premier Borden on the manner in which he had presented to the House à measure of such vital importance.He had used language of simplicity and dignity, in keeping with his position as first minister of the land.However, while he congratulated, he could neither agree with him as to the facts or to the remedy.Mr.Borden, had he presumed, based his proposals entirely upon the memorandum of the Admiralty.The memorandam did not support the contention of the Prime Minister that there was an emergency.Mr.Guth::e said that Premier Asquith was in a position to possess the largest amount of political knowledge of anyone in he Empire, for he was in daily t such with the whole situation.« Premier Asquith had stated that Britain\u2019s power was overwhelming, superior to that of any foreign fleet.Bonar Law, Mr.Ralfosr and Lord Crowe had ali taken very much the same position.(Continued On Page Six.) SEEK HELPLESS STEAMER ADRIFT ON BROAD OCEAN THE ABESSINIA RUDDERLESS, WITH BROKEN SHAFT, HAS A CREW OF 4.New York, Jan.14.\u2014~The Hamburg- American Line freighter Abessinia, crippled by the great storm of January 3 and 3, may still be adrift in mid.Atlantic, Wireless from the steamship Cedric yesterday gave grounds for the belief that the Abessinia had been picked up by the freighter Armenian, and was being towed to port; but when the Cedric arrived to-day her captain said the disabled vessel and the rescue ship might have missed each other in the ing.LAND CALL FOR AID.The Cedric sighted the German freighter on the night of January il to find that she had lest her rudder and broken her shaft.\u2018she Cedric's sommander decided that because the Cedric had passengers and msil he would

miles and her offer was accepted.The Cedric stood by until the Armenian signalled that she could see the lights of the drifting Abessinia Then the Cedric, helieving the digabled ship was safely

radius, the Armenian was still groping in the fog and the crippled steamer was still adrift.* The steamer Pisa, of thme Ham- burg-American Line, is the likeliest vessel to give prompt assistance to the Abessinia, according to advices received by the line late this afternoon.The Pisa left here Jan.2 bound for Hamburg and is apparently near the position of the disabled vessel, for a wireless from the Minnetonka of the Atlantic Transport Line, said that the Pisa was proceeding to the Abessinia to render assistance.The Abessinia is a freighter and catries no passengers.She has à crew of about

supremacy, and, therefore, that even in this sense there exists an cmergency justifying the prompt action of Premier Borden.The confidential information imparted to the Government by the Lords of the Admiralty tends to strengthen the conviction that contributory aid is our best and mest effective policy at the moment.Ultimately, of course.we shall have a permanent policy.It may be granted that the principle of the Laurier navy was good.But it was never developed.Niggard hands held the purse strings and there was no earnest effort to make the Canadian force efficient.The Liberal Government was half-hearted and sluggish on defence questions and the Liberal leaders were trying to quiet a public opinion which they affected to think should not materially, ir much greater while the rural routes have been increms- ed as the needs of the country demand.In the matter of efficiency, too, much improvement is shown.Yet, in spite of the extra cost and the abandonment of the old suplus-or-die policy the surplus has been increased very For all this Mr.Pelletier merits much credit, and, as the Citizen remarks, \u201cit is only hoped that he will speedily make the crowning climax of his excellent administration the establishment of a parcels post system.\u201d OBSTRUCTION.Judging from the general disgust aroused by the announcement of blocking tactics made by the Liberal press snd a few of the ex-Ministers whose utter inability to interpret the feeling of the Canadian electorate led to their being swept out of existence two years ago, it will not be very long before the leaders of the Liberal party are compelled to renounce their obstructive ideas.Tt will easily be seen that few of these Liberal journals have as yet dared to counsel opposition in their editorial columns and we are sure that none of the local organs of the Opposition will enter upon such a course without a good many searchings of heart.They well know that the public will not be slow 10 voice its disgust at such unworthy tactics, \u2014\u2014 A Wall Street paper calculates that during the past exist, A Canadian navy of obsolete vessels is utterly useless.In the long run provision may be made on each coast for a full naval unit.But this cannot be yet.And as to i mes, any permanent policy must consider the possibility of obtaining recruits.In a new and prosperous country that task must of necespity be a difficult one.The man ! who cas make $60 a month on shore will not exchange his freedom for ship discipline when the naval pay may be only about half.But the militia idea might be applied te saval as well as to military service.The Toronto News suggests that we might utilize the natural patriotism of the citizen by establishing training basges in the ocean and lake ports where volunteers might be instructed in the essentials of gunnery, the care of equipment, the muchanics of engineering and electricity as applied to modern naval practice and in the countless other requisites.Instructors for these barges might be borrowed from the British navy until such time as men from our own ~ermanent forces were competent for the task and annual cruises of two or three weeks\u2019 duration for each company of naval militia would assist int ereating all over the country a reserve force that might be used in time of trouble.The tendency of some Liberal papers to talk about manning our three Dreadnonghts with Canadians is based os a misconception.The sayy.man does not happen.He is a person of training.Even a merchant scaman of 8 battieship would be a lubber for a long while.THE BOTHA DISPUTE.Fuller details with regard to the recent resignation df Premier Botha of South Africa show that this action on his part was due entirely to friction between himself snd General Hertzog, the South African Bourassa, over the question of British connection.Since the event of the South African Union General Hertzæog has been the leader of the Boer extremists.Almost from the beginning his narrow and bigoted views caused trouble in the administration and matters came to @ crisis last month, In a bye-election contest the question of South African participatiof im Imperial defence came up.General Botha afirmeé the readiness of his government to do its share, and, speaking at Grahamstown early in the month, he said that wherever he had spoken he had said only -one thing.He knew the Dutch people and he knew they wotrld stand by him.and neither he nor they would stand back before any man in loyalty to the Empire.\u201d Also, while asking for time for the education of his people and for consultation with the Admiralty, General Botha declared that \u201cthe Cabinet recognized their responsibility to undertake the naval defence of South Africa as they had done on land.\u201d But next General Hertzog at Rustenberg declared that \u201cImperialism was important to him only when it was vseful to South Africa: and, when it was not serviceable, he had respect for it from a distance, but.as a South African, he had little to do with it; and.when it was con- i trary to the interests of South Africa, he was a distinct | enemy to Imperialism.\u201d Regarding the navy he intimated that all the talk about it was fomented by \u201cthe great capitalists.\u201d The only choice aiter this was whether Botha would dismiss Hertzog from his Cabinet or resign himself.Botha chose the latter.This was probably a wise move, Over an ordinary political issue, the only sensible thing to do would be for a Premier to eject an insubordinate minister But in a grave racial issue.something is to be gained by allowing the people to see that mere racial champions can only get along as kickers.Botha having resigned it became manifest that General Hertzog could rot even form a Government, let alone carry it on.After 8 week's interregnum, General Botha was invited to form ® new government, which he is doing, Fe episode must show how high is the estimation fa which General Botha has come to be held throughout the Empire.There will be a general hope that he will overcome the difticulties of the political situation in South Africs, which remain great.POSTAL EFFICIENCY.The Ottawa Citizen gives a measure of well-deserved pralee to Hon.L.P.Pelletier for the recent improvements fa Canada\u2019s post office department which, it says, has several times recently come nto the limelight.each time showing gratifying progress.In this connection it says: \"The declared intention of the postmaster-general to consider favorably the establishment of the parcels post in the Dominion is the latest evidence of a progressiveness whieh can hardly receive too much praise at the hands of the people whom it would eo splendidly serve\u201d Reviewing the history of the department for the past Sweaty years the Citisen goes on to say that when the Liberals came into power in 1896 there was a deficit in the department, this being due rather to the growing needs of the country than to inefficient management.When fie William Mulock became Postmaster-General his aim, perhaps, naturally enough, was te turn the deficit into a swples, Unfortunately, however, he failed to realize that efficiency of service is more desirable than sony surplus ond he therefore sacrificed the former to the latter.Hoa Rodolphe Lemieux followed practically the Es course and everyone will remember how in his time the employees of the department clamored In vain for the intense Ja salaries which the rising cost of living ren.dated aimost imperative, Since Mr.Pelletier took over the office he has done Justice 10 the employees and.extended the service as seven years there has been an exodus from the United States, mainly from the north-western border States, to Canada, of not less than 676,305 souls Statistics are available to show that the capital taken in by these people has averaged $800 to $1,500 per head, furnishing a total sum of $775350,000 (155 millions sterling) for the up- building of Canada.It seems to us, says the journal in question, that this addition to the working capital of Canada requires to be borne in mind by the economist when he deals with the so-called adverse balance of trade against Canada at the present time Will it keep up?With such a copious reservoir as the United States to draw upon it is hard to see how the movement can very well cease until Canada is relatively filled up.Comment of The Press Lord Hardinge is the second viceroy of India to be struck by an assassin.In 1872 Lord Mayo was killed by a vicious convict while on a yisit to the Andamans.The position of the head of the government of India is probably as perilous as any in the service of Great Britam.The masses of the people are satisfied and many are carnestly loyal in their adhesion to British rule, There are many {fanatics among them, however, and of late political agitators, sometimes encouraged from Great Britain, have worked to create and spread dissatisfaction.In this latest case the intended victims happily escaped.It will be necessary in the future, however, to have a greater care over the viceroy.\u2014Vancouver Sun, One important reason given for public ownership has been the fact that municipalities have been able te borrow money at a lower rate than companies, This has been true, and is now toa certain extent, but the rates for municipal lcans and publie utility bonds have been steadily ap- rroaching one another, and this process is likely to continue.The enormous municipal debts which American and English cities are running up are tending to render capital \u201ccautious, and although not only the property of the municipality, but that of every individual citizen, stands as security for the municipal loans, still the difficulties which would arise if a municipality should go into bankruptcy\u2014not an unthinkable proposition\u2014does not al- lute the investor.This may seem an exaggerated statement, but the United States Census Bureau reports show that between 1902 and 1908 the sixteen largest cities in the United States increased their gross debts by $646,000,- 000, or 71.6 per cent, while during the same time their population increased only 15.5 per cent, This means that the gross debt of these cities for each man woman and child living in them rose from $75.47 to $112.50.Such an increase cannot continue without a demand from investors for a higher rate of interest to compensate for the risk.\u2014 Walter S.Allen in the North American Review, During the years that the Laurier Government dallied with the Hudson Bay railway question Eastern critics of that proposed grain route did not hesitate to express scepticism as to its feasibility, Tales about the shortness of the navigation season, about the immense floes of ice in the bay and harbors, about the impossibility of obtaining insurance for vessels on such a hazardous route, were spread with some gusto even by leading supporters of those supposedly staunch friends of the Western farmers \u2014the Laurier Ministers, The halting steps taken by the late Government towards the fulfilment of its pledge to build the road, and the lack of real investigation of the water route possibilities showed its heart was not in the undertaking.When Mr.Borden came into office his Government was charged with the duty of carrying out his clection promise to proceed at once to open the route.That duty became doubly pressing because of the inadequacy of the existing Canadian outlets for the Western grain.The delay in the construction of the Western half of the National Transcontinental had left the West with only a single rail outlet to the Fast.It was imperative that as the Borden Government proposed a development of Canadian trade with Canadian channels, in contradistinction to finding relief from the difficulties of the transportation situation by making general use of United States grain exporting terminals, Canadian railway

MINISTER OF MARINE AND FISHERIES TAKES ACTION TO IMPROVE PILOTAGE.Following on representations made to the Hon.J.D.Hazen, Minister of Marine and Fisheries, by representative shipping men, it has been decided to appoint a commission to be known as the Pilotage Commission to inquire into the whole system of the appointment of pilots in Canada.The Commission will direct its energies more particularly to the method of appointment and to the workings of the pilot organizations as seen on the Atlantic coast and the River St.Lawrence.This prompt action on the part of the Minister will meet with the approval of not only the shipping men of the country but of all those who have to travel by water.The action has been precipitated by the number of marine accidents, which have taken place on the St.Lawrence within the past six months.Pilots Blamed.At one point four months ago near the City of Quebec two large ocean Going steamers went aground almost at the same spot.After a thorough investigation it was found that in both instances tie pilots were to blame.This led shipping people to look into tke question of the appointment .of pilots and it was alleged that there existed a

Washington, Jan.14\u2014The meta! schedule of the tariff law was again under fire before the House Committee on Ways and Means to-day, several steel manufaeturing interests contending for retention of the present duties in the schedule.S.P.Kerr, of Sharon, Pa.president of the Sharon Steel Hoop Com- 1 pany, advocated changes in the phraseolugy of the law to avoid im- ! porters taking advantage of its terms.Mr.Kerr expressed optimism of the future of the steel industry regardless of any action the Democratic administration might take.He said the i steel manufacturipg industry was ! practically limitless in its possibilities and he urged protection against invasion from abroad.He added that if the industry was disturbed, the capi.ltal would remain and the companies would reduce labor to the point of meeting with the competition.RE.Jennings, representing the , Carpenter Steel Company of Penni sylvania, urging the present tariff law, testified that the labor cost of production in the crucible steel industry was about 40 to 50 per cent of the total cost, which he said, in response to Chairman Underwood.was much greater than in the Bessemer or open hearth steel business.Wants a Dumping Clause.E.P.Reichelm, of New York, wanted the present tariff retained on the products of the file and tool industry.During the discussion Mr.Kerr advocated a dumping elause to prevent the sending of goods into this country at prices lower than in the country of production.\u201cif we had a dumping clause in this metal schedule,\u201d asked Chairman Underwood, \u201cdon\u2019t you think that the rates fixed in our metal bill last session would be sufficient?\u201d \u201cI don't think that is so.We don't know as to that yet.\u201d Mr.Underwood asked as to the reasons for the United States Steel Corporation's proposed increase of wages.Mr.Kerr said he thought \u201cthat the corporation was taking time by the forelock to hold its labor.\u201d Affairs of the Waltham Watch Company of Waltham, Mass, also were taken up by the committee, which continued its session far into the night.Silk, Regular Price $6.75 C.A.Keene, of New York, a watch retailer, whom E.C.Fitch, of the Waltham Watch Company, criticized for violating the company's price standard, urged the committee to fix a tariff of 30 per cent advalorem on watch movements of all grades, and with regard to watches brought back from abroad 20 per cent to apply on the improvements only.He-said he found several years ago it was quite profitable to go abroad to buy American watches to sell here.Other purchases included 3 Waltham movement, $9.90 here, foreign list price, $9.98, which he bought abroad for $8.He asserted the Waltham company now seeks to prevent the reshipment to America of their watches by adding dials to these watches after the latter get sbroad, thus making them dutiable.As one familiar with watches, he said, he could not see where there was any improvement, but it put up a customs barrier in the interest of their lower foreign price list policy.He said the Waltham Company had tried to force him to sell only at their prices, and that he couldn't get their watches to handle now.Company Fixes Prices.\u201cIi a dealer undersells their price he can\u2019t buy any more.\u201d suggested Representative Palmer of Pennsylvania.\u201cPrecisely,\u201d replied the witness.Mr.Keene said the specific rates on various grades of watches under the present tariff were what the watch companies wanted and he favored an advalorem tariff, which he believed would result in more importations.\u201cHaven't you imported watches and sold them for less than they cost you?\" asked Reperesentative Fordney of Michigan.\u201cMay be so, they might be mixed up in the stock sometimes.\u201d Mr.Keene was asked about the Waltham Company selling him watches in London on the expectaticn he would sell them in Egypt.\u201cOh, yes,\" he said, \u201cI put up that job, and by the way, those watches went to Aden, Arabia.We put on a new label there and then re-shipped them to this country and I made about 30 per cent profit.\u201d He said further that India, Ceylon and other foreign places figured in similar transactions.He told of being enjoined by the Waltham interests and how at last, before the injunction, he \u201ctried very hard to keep on getting the goods.\u201d | \u201cSome years ago,\u201d said the witness, explaining the source of his troubles, \u201cthe Waltham Company had trouble in selling the watches, one johber in Illinois, for instance, being short 8;

point, Mummery: cover-point, Crawford: centre, Joe Malone; right wing, Madks; left Wing, T.Smith ; spares, Jeff Malone, Joe Savard, Billy Creighton and Delaney.It is very probable that Joe Labrecque.who !s in Montreal at the present time, will be tried out on the defence if the occasion arises As for the eriticisms of La Presse concerning the game here last week, several of the French Canadian supporters of the club say that the paper in question can only look at the game from a racial viewpoint and that some of its representatives have reproached them for favoring the Quebec club against the Canadiens.As To Disputed Game.Referring to the statement that the equalizing goal scored by Quebec was an offside one, Mr.Chas.I).MacNa- mara, who assisted Melville, says that the puck was put onside by coming in contact with Dubeau's skate when Smith passed it to Marks.Another goal which Quebec put through was not allowed as it went right through the net.Hundreds, Hundreds, however, saw it go tho however, saw it go through.Another thing that is not generally known is that ve Liorval and others who are making all kinds of accusations against the Quebec club tried to prevent Tom Melville from boarding the same train as they left here, and to all appearances mobbed him on the way up to Montreal.Several of the Canadiens were crying like children after the match.Joe Hall received 2 good offer from Halifax to put in the rest of the season with them, but said last night that he would stay with Quebec.It is known that Halifax thinks they have got him.SOME HEALTHY ADVICE Our advice to Joe Hall is to speak kindly and the office boy has taken another spasm over this hockey fuss.This time it is & poem to Joe addressed as follows : \u201cSpeak kindly to a grizzly bear; He is a quiet cuss, But, though he wears a quiet air, He is cantankeruss, Speak ki to the healthy mule; His temper may be quick, And he is hasty as » rule To register à kick Speak kindly, Joe, to beasts and men.)

Each home club shall furnish you: with such report, with the names of the players, prior to the starting of ; the match.Kindly see that the goals are changed at the end of each 20-minute period, including any overtime play.With regard to the fouls, it seems to be the general impression amongst : the playecs that in some cases they have been penalized for a mere infraction of the rules, and if such is the case the rules have been wrongly iu- terpreted.! The rules expressly define the! classes of fouls, as follows: Major,\u2019 minor, and match.A minor foul shall consist of deliberately holding an opponent or his stick, tripping when a goal is not in danger, loafing offside, A major foul shall consist of throwing a stick to prevent à score, tripping an opponent when the latter is attempting to score, cross-checking, charging from behind, kicking, collaring, hooking, loafing off side after having been fined for same offence as 8 minor foul.The stopping of a goal by a goalkeeper deliberately lying or kneeling on the ice.Using foul or abusive language to any official.: A match foul shall consist in de- lieberately injuring or disabling an opponent.Clean body checking is permissible at all times.' Kicking the puck with the skate, batting same with the hand or stick.raising the stick over the shoulder to stop the puck, are only infractions of the rules of hockey, and merely call for a face, without any foul, .in other words, anything not defined in tite three classes - above mentioned arc only infractions.Do not depend upon the recorder to get your penalties, after you signal to the public the class of foul by raising the recorder himself of the class of foul committed and thereby insuring the proper recording of same.In case of loafing off side be sure to state same to the recorder as a third offences constitutes a major foul.When the puck goes off the ice behind the goals see that same is taken midway between the goal posts and outside edge of the rink, on the side that it went out of bounds, and faced five yards at right angles from the goal line.Do not give 2 goal keeper a major foul for falling on the ice after he has stopped the puck, the rule states he must not deliberately lie or knee! on the ice to stop the puck.A rebound off any part of the goalkeeper, including his skates, but excepting his stick, shall be considered on side, In conclusion, permit me to remind you that the players are human like yourself: a little friendly advice on your part during a game will help considerably to keep the game clean, and from past experiences I know that you will find that they are only too anxious to make your duties light.Co-operate with them and I fell positive that they will endeavor to the best of their ability to uphold the .principle of giving the public clean hockey.The public demand that it should be such, the rules call for it, and I look to the officials to see that we yet it.Trusting that this letter will be received in the same spirit in which it is written, and that in future your duties shall he lighter, F remain, yours respectfully, T.EMMETT QUINN, HOCKEY RESULT AT THE CHATEAU TONIGHT The results of all three matches in the N.H.A.tonight wil be given in full detail at the Chateau Frontenac Cafe.| NEW YORK TRACK GETS THE READVILLE DATES | Pittsburg, Jan.14\u2014The stewards of the Grand Circuit this afternoon admitted the Empire track of New York City to the circuit and assigned the week of Aug.25 for the meet sur.| rendered by Readville, PP CHANCE INTENDS TO PLAY FIRST BASE Los Anegels, Jan.14.\u2014 Frank Chance, the new manager of the New York American League team, returned to his orange ranch at Glendora to-day.He said he would leave home February 4 for New York.\u201cWill you be a hench manager?\u201d he was asked.\u201cNo,\u201d was the reply.\u201cI expect to play first hase some of the time, Chase and 1 will alternate, probably,\u201d tional Hockey Association, so as to rule an umpires decision and remove \u2018 is started at the scheduled time of | a , WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 1§, 1913, 4 ANDREW CARNEGIE SAYS \u201cBUY LAND\u201d This great Steel Magnate - whom we have all-read about - is a self made man and a shrewd Financiernot only a big land owner himself but his constant advice to others is to \u201cBUY LAND\u201d - Suburban Properties.He is Sy THE % City and Suburban Real Estate Aun investigation will show that most of the big fortunes of this would, if not founded on the ownership of land, rely on realty for their maintenance and strength.The enormous ASTOR ESTATE of New York City is the most prominent example and proof of this statement.This fortune is essentially 8a REAL ESTATE FORTUNE.The policy laid down by shrewd old John Jacob Astor and always followed by his successors, was to buy Manhattan Real Estate, never sell it, but to invest its earnings in other Manhattan property a little out from the centre; until now in Greater New York, from the heart of old downtown New York to the furthermoat limits of the Greater City, and a little beyond, the map is dotted with Astor holidays, all paying a revenue to the Astor Coffers, larger and larger as the City expands.REAL ESTATE is now.and always has been the measure of wealth and importance.The old feudal system was based cn the ownership of \u201cBROAD ACRES\u201d.And the money earners of to-day count the bulk of their wealth in realty holdings.The ownership of a piece of property, no matter how modest, at once stamps the possessor as a person of consideration und means.It is a basis of credit.It is a passport to the guild of influential citizens.ie\u2019 i others is \u201cBUY LAND.\u201d CN de acid et re ot experience\u2014to you today is the sume.WE SAY\u2014\u201cBUY LAND IN MONTREAL, AT MONTREAL PARK.\u201d SOMETHING THAT WILL INTEREST YOU IN OUR NEXT AD.is the best of all possible good investments\u2014this has been proven conclusively.\u2019 00.LIMITED.«.Office 99 St.John Street .MDE.LEMIEUX'S STAND.R.H.JENNINGS, QUEBEC REPRESENTATIVE.PES ET eet my The D.J] McA\u2019Nulty Dear Sirs.\u2014 Send me\u2014without obligation on Montreal Park and descriptive lit- epture.DANIEL J.McANULTY REALTY Realty Co, Limited part\u2014illustrated booklet of Name .\u2026.2.esses sean, Street Les ees essences City JOHNSON STOPPED AT THE BORDER PUGILIST ON WAY TO ARRANGE PARIS FIGHT WITH PALZER.abROnNDAQOQOOQC COMING FOR GOOD.Toronto, Jan.14.\u2014It is stated that permanent residence had been arranged here for Jack Johason, who had become disgusted at what he terms his persecution by United States authorities.QOVVVVUVB OVD o Q © Q © a e 2 9 Q ° Q GénaALANHOARGONGA Battle Creek, Mich, Jan.14\u2014Jack !

lamp explosion, after lingering five days, finally succumbed to her injuries.The particulars of the explosion are as follows: Last Thursday Mr.Hickone of the engineers working for Messrs.Price Brothers at Jonquiere, on returning home, found that a seri- ous accident had occurred.The maid, an clderly woman named Mrs.Lilas burn, had evidently used coal oil t@ light the fire for supper, and

of the children were badly burned about the head and hands, and both were left in a critical condition, The baby was also burned, but not se badly as the others, and the house singed from top to bottom, but di not take fire.Dr.Pouliot, of Jonquiere, gave the greatest attention and care to the sufe ferers, but it was all in vain in the case of Mrs.Hick, and, according te latest advices, the

A detailed report upon this property has been made by Mr.Fritz Cirkel, the well- known geologist and mineralogist, author of an important monograph on \u201cGraphite, its Properties, Occurrence, Refining and Uses,\u201d which has been published by the Department of Mines of the Dominion of Canada and which is regarded as an authoritative hand-book on the subject DESCRIPTIVE REPORT In this report Mr.Cirkel states that lots 15 and 16, four sections of the deposits gave a total graphite width of 143 inches, or approximately 36 inches per section of eight feet width, or in other words, out of 8 feet of rock surface, as an average three feet were occupied by graphite of the crude and disseminated variety, the greater portion of which is flake graphite of the highest grader.Cirkel states that all of the graphite as exposed in these veins and pockets is of a high grade quality, and if properly treated and refined would yield an article similar to the best of the Ceylon Product.Remarking upon pit No.3, Mr.Cirkel states that fully fifty per cent of a width of z8 feet is taken up by Graphite.The Graphite belt crosses the country in a north-easterly direction for a dis:ance of two miles.As to Lot 16, owned by the Company, Mr.Cirkel states that the work so far done shows conclusively that this belt has a width of at least 200 feet, and contains for a length of at least 1400 feet, graphite deposits of workable extent and of a quality which ranks with the best in the market.As to the quality of the Ore which has been discovered on lots 15 and 16 in ten places, it must be stated that the crude ore, which may be seen in any of the present outcrop, is of excellent pure quality, and resembles in its physical aspects entirely that of Cevfon.CARBON CONTENTS OF ORE.- Numerous asseys have been made, and a majority of these have given carbon contents (pure graphite) to a degree exceeding 9o per cent while one sample, designated as large scales, gave an assey, certified by Mr.Milton L.Hersey, Provincial Analyst, of the extraordinary percentage of 97.98 pure.Messrs.Krupp, the world renowned ordnance manufacturers of Essen, Germany, recently tested 3000 pounds of graphite from the Amherst mine and they reported that the first quality gave 90.5% and the second quality 57.5% carbon.USES OF GRAPHITE.The uses of Graphite are many and various, but it is by far most commonly and widely known as a component of that most popular of misnomers \u2014the ever familiar \u2018dead\u2019 pencil.2 And yet out of the world's total consumption (in 1903) of 75,000 tons of graphite.it is estimated that no more than four per cent was consumed in the manufacture of lead pencils.Refractory articles such as crucibles, stoppers, nozzles, etc., accounted for thirty-five per cent of the consumption, stove polish for 30%, and lubricating graphite and reases 16%.; Foundry facings, graphite packing and graphite paint, consumed fourteen per cent of the product, and the last Famed item alone, when effeciently exploited.may be regarded as capable of taking the leading place in the world's demand for graphite products.; PLANT ; The Plant consists of Engines, Boilers, Air Compressor Drills, and a complete Mill for refining the Ore.PROSPECTUS This mine was, for a period of three years, systematically tested and developed under expert management.hen it was found that the ore supply gave promise of long and rich continuity a high-class, up-to-date mill was erected, having a capacity of one hundred tons in twenty-four hours.The amount expended to date, in development and installations, exceeds one hundred and thirty-five thousand dollars, and the production of the refined graphite, for which a world wide demand exists, is expected to commence on a profitable basis on the first of February, 1913.; Mr.G.N.Brewer, one of the best known experts in refining graphite, under whose direction the milling plant has been installed, will conduct its operations, and Mr.J.M.Cohen, the eminent mining engineer, is in charge of the mining department.The Company now has about fifteen hundred tons of highclass mining ore on the dump, and about six thousand tons blocked out in the mine.Samples of the ore and certified assays, also enginers\u2019 reports can be seen at our office.This is the first public offering made of this stock and we strongly recommend it to our clients.The directors expect that the mine will be on a permanent dividend paying basis and the stock listed at the exchange before the end of the present year.GEORGES HAARDT & COMPANY, ALEX.HARDY, 50 Commercial Union Building, or Hochelaga Bank Building, Montreal.= Quebec.Montreal | HOR FOR PAC | CLAIM IW.W.LEADER MADE REMARK ENDANGERING THE PUBLIC PEACE.New York, Jan.14\u2014Demand for \u2018the proseeution of Joseph J.Etter, the labor leader, under the section of the penal code relating to acts \u201cendangering the public peace\u201d was made 10-day upon Distrlet Atierney White man by Charles J.Canipbell, counsel for the New York Iloielimen\u2019s Arpos clation.Campbell complained that Ettor's quoted remarks before the striking hotel waiters last weck was in violation of the penal eode.Eiior has dee nled making the statement complain.| fcers.The largest number, 1,201, are yed of, advising the waiters that if they were forced to go back on unacceptable terms to go hack with thelr minds made up \u201cthat it is the unsafest thing in the world for the capitalist to eat food prepared by members of your union.\u201d 1 District Attorney Whitman, accord.Ing to Mr.Campbell, promised to in- 1 vestigate the matter.WEEKS\u201d ELECTE.JUNIOR SENATOR WILL SUCCEED W.MURRAY CRANE FROM STATE OF MASBACHUSE1TS.day chose Congressman John Wingate Weeks, of Newton, à graduate of the Naval Academy, the successor of Winthrop Murray Crane as the junior senator from Massachusetts.Congressman Weeks polled the full Republican strength in the Senate and obtained all but five of the party votes in the House.The Democratic opposition was split up among sixteen candidates.The vote in the Senate was: Weeks 26: Sherman L.Whipple (Dem).11;

No decision has been given by the judges, and it is probable that the race will have to be run over.There were two races on the programme; a local two-mile race, for which five entries had been made, and the matoh race between Messrs.Lortie and l*.Giroux, nf Beauport, on which, \u2018t is stated, $2,000 had been wagered.In the two-mile trotting, the result : was as follows: { 1\u2014Major B.O.Career nca ne t 2\u2014Thorlo B.8\u2014Peari Patch 4\u2014Texas N.NEL Time, 5.08;

overwhelming security why not let the people decide?\u201d Mr, Middleboro Replies.Mr.W.S.Middleboro (North Grey) in replying, said that while it was to be regretted that both parties did not see eye to eye on the naval question, especially in view of the tremendous and salutory moral effect such an agreement would produce in Europe \u2014nevertheless the most gratifying and outstanding feature of the whole debate was that whatever differences there might be as to its application, all were united and agreed that a sum of $35,000,000 should now be granted for naval defence.This being the one point upon which the parties were agreed he had made an analysis of the speeches delivered by the members of the Opposition in order to learn the main differences, and he had found that the argument had been directed to showing as trite the following propositions, which the government denied.1.The denial of an emergency or need of immediate and effective aid.2.That the grant of $35,000,000 was but the beginning of a permanent contribution plan, 3.That this Rift endangered the principles of autonomy and free constitutional government.4.That the Admiralty memorandum does not show an emergency.S.That Canada can best contribute to the naval defence of itself and the Empire by the construction of a separate and independent navy along the lines of the act of 1910, The German Peril, These propositions, Mr, Middleboro took up in turn and analysed.Dealing with the question of the existence of on emergency, he traced the tremendous growth of the .Germany navy, in 16 years coming from a practical nonentity to become the second most powerful navy in the world.\u201cCan there be any doubt.\u201d he asked, \u201cof the ultimate object of that policy, and when you find that they have ap.and strengthening that navy one is irrisistibly forced to the conclusion that it is not for defensive purposes only.\u201d The Liberal Government in Canada utterly ignored the crisis that had arisen in 1910 and brought down instead their naval service act as the permanent naval policy of Canada.It was then that the Conservative Opposition moved an amendment that Canada should grant $25000000 for the building of two Dreadnoughts for Britain.\u201cThat was the psychological moment,\u201d said Mr.Middleboro.\u201cHad we sent the Dreadnoughts the moral effect would have been much greater than the material.The policy which the government adopted is now, after three years, of absolutely no assistance to the Motherland in her present crisis.The German navy bill of 1912 alone constitutes such an emergency as ta justify the present grant of three Dreadnaughts.\u201d Constitutional Aspects, Mr.Middleboro discussed the constitutional aspect at some length.Who, he asked, had ever heard of a free, spontaneous and untramelled gift in any way effecting Canadian autonomy or the constitutional relationships except to preserve both by helping to preserve the Empire.There had at no period been a demand from Brit- 2in as to what action the colonies should take, yet there was an evident desire on the part of the Opposition to make it appear that the government as proposing something in the nature of a tax, the beginning of a permanent involuntary contribution.In this there was absolutely no truth, Is Not Permanent Policy.\u201cThis Borden bill,\u201d \u2018said Mr.Middieboro, \u201cdoes not pretend to affect the perman.at naval policy of Canada.The frank admission by Hon.Frank Oliver of an emergency, the statements of Mr.Borden, the confidential statement give to him by the Admiralty, supplemented by the Admiralty report, all these justify the introduction of the present bill.\u201d Mr.Middleboro closed with an appeal to Sir Wilirid Laurier to join hands and pass the bill unanimously.If he did so, he would be grasping the opportunity of à lifetime and the effect of it in the chancellories of Europe would equal the monetary assistance proposed by the bill.Mr.E.W.Nesbitt (North Oxford) more for the purpose of increasing || propriated more than $500,000,000 | argued that if Russia and Japan could ISDE BAC Pogue PHYSICIANS and BUGEONS Ex-Pupily

a delay of two months in the handing out of the judgment of Judge Leet.of Montreal, regarding charges made against officials of La Banque Internationale.and heard by him in private.The journal states that its correspondence with the Department of Finance, the Department of Justice and with Judge Leet, has as yet failed to penetrate the lengthy silence.It says that the Minister of Finance, in a letter to the paper, lightly dismisses the matter by stating he has no authentic information.While almose unanimous silence persists regarding the charges, KOs3ip as to what might have occurred at the bank is heard day by day.That Canadian banking and credit are injured by this continued silence is asserted by the Monetary Times, which asks \u201cwhat did really happen at the bank, and what is the
