position that its case 15 nf a special character.The railways fur the past four years have been urging »trongly that the rate of compensat on be practically dmhled.but the principal factor in the

their increased demand, there is little doubt that the revenues of such concerns will be adversely affected by che inaugora- tion of the systers, The question ci compensation for carrying mails on

Eng.Nov.21.\u2014Vengeance was wrecked on the suffragettes who.early this morning set fire to a great lumber yard on the banks of the Thames, for while the place was still burning the offices of a suffragette society in this city were raided and wrecked.All the furniture and a large collection of suffrage literature were thrown into the streets.The damage done by the lumber yard's fre amounted

PARIS.Washington, Nov.21 \u2014 Three weeks of patient experimentation culminated in success last night when the United States naval observatory here heard the beats of the Paris bbservatory clock as transmitted by radio signals from the Eiffel tower to the great navy radio station at Arlington.The \u201cbeats\u201d were compared with thuse of the Washington clock for some minutes by the method of \u201ccoincidences.\u201d The American and French commissioners who are conducting these experiments to determine the difference sn longitude between Paris and Washington and the velocity of propogation of radio signals through space, were greatly encouraged by their success.They announced today that the season of the year when atmospheric conditions arc best for radio work is now coming on and that their work will proceed as planned.GUODOGISDOOSUOGCODADOSOODOODDONEOROIS GOOGOUOGUGGOGOCAULOGOGOODGGGODODODOLO STR.NEW ZEALAND NOW AT HALIFAX CIVIC ADDRESS WILL BE PRESENTED TO THE CAPTAIN

PRACTICE IN MEXICAN CONGRESS FOUND PULLING Deputy Speaker Declares That There Is No Quorum Present Although There Is.IS HUERTA BLUFFING?Order for British Squadron to Proceed to Vera Cruz is Countermanded Mexico City, Nov, 21-\u2014The bulk of the evidence at hand continues to indicate that Victoriano Huerta is un- | alterably determined not to accede to | the demands of the United States goverament for his elimination as President of Mexico; but there is some basis for the belief that he may at last give in, but iu such a manner as to leave the impression that he acted of his own free will, defying Washington to the last.The high handed parliamentary practice in the Chamber of Deputies this afternoon guve rise to considerable speculation.The roll of members was called and it was quite evident that the number necessary for à quorum was present, but Col.Vie-! tor Corral, presiding in the absence\u2019 of Eduardo Tamariz, the Speaker, who was ill, looked the deputies straight in the eye and declared | there was no quorum.Not a deputy | protested, and the chamber stood adjourned until tomorrow.It was suggested that this action might be part of a plañ to bring about the death of congress and thus split hairs with the.Washington government.which, through John Lind, President Wilson's personal represen- ative, had insisted that this new legislative body should not come into existence.Under the law should there be no quorum three times in succession, the House would be automatically dissolved.One Mexican, speculating on the motive for today's adjournment , suggested that it ws merely à time saving device, adding: \u201cTime for Huesta today is fine spun \u201cgold.\u201d - It became known today that Manual Aldape.prior to Ms expulsion consideration of the United States a erta, to the effect that congress should meet, merely for the transaction of three or four measures, namely, ratification of the decree of October 11, dissolving congress; declaring the eclctions of President and Vice-Pres- ident null and void, and calling for new elections, and, because « there might arise the question as to the legality of the new chamber and senate, calling an election for deputies and senators as well.It was under.been acted upon the new congress would adjourn and the nation again would await the results of elections.For this reason it is not believed that the no quorum rule will be carried out indefinitely, and that it was used today merely as a matter of sparring for time.| Government.officials are authority ! for the statement that there has been | inaugurated beween Nelson O'Shaugh nessy, the American Charge d'Affaires, and Mexico certain negotiations.Confirmation of this is not ob- tainahle at the embassy and in government circles all details are refused.That a British cruiser squadron was ordered from Barbados to Vera Cruz on representations made by Sir Lionel Carden, became known here today.It was also learned that a counter-order was made as the result of an encrgetic communication from Secretary of State Bryan to the British ambassador at Washington.Sir Lionel Carden is said to have represented to his government that conditions were becoming so bad that fresh uprisings would be no surprise, and should they occur, he doubted the ability of the American marines at Vera Cruz, even if so disposed, to afford proper protection.He then suggested sending a squadron, it is said, Secretary Bryan, according to the cablegrams reaching here, learned the tiews from press reports, and gave the British ambassador to understand | that the United States would regard the presence of a British squadron in Mexican waters as undesirable, snd as a result the order was changed to provide for one hoat to proceed to Tampico or some other gulf-port, AMERICAN OIL INTERESTS WILL BE PROTECTED Washington.Nov.21.\u2014Rear-Admi- ral Fletcher, commanding the American fleet on the edst coast of Mexico, late today cabled the Navy Department 3

trgweling 45 miles an hour, crashed ints gigantic boulder which had hurtleq down to the track from far up the Precipitous cliffside.The engine was ed from the steel into the chaam \u2018of waters beneath, carrying in its mangled mass to a watery grave, frémen Ernest O'Connor, of Schreibe.The engineer escaped miraculously as the train struck but his warning cry to his fellow- workman was gg late.Luckily the gine broke away from the rest of the train before it plunged over the cliff.Three cars only left the track and the train held the foremost from following the engine into the lake.No one else was injured.In any event, the death rate would not have been high as the train was composed only of transcontinental mail, express and baggage car, with a first-class passengertcoach at the rear, occupied by but ome man.There were, however, besides the engine crew, a ebnductor, two brakemen, a mail elerk and baggage and express agents on the train.BIG FIRE AT STE MARIE DE BEAUCE 30

yer cu t rig - REPORT OF THE LICENSE COMMISSION.The long-ewaited report of the License Commission on the liquor question in the Province of Quebec wes tabled in the House yesterday wd contains much that is instructive.The Commissioners have approached the matter with true judicial reason- wg and the result of their ndings should undoubtedly prove of much bamefit to thé Province.While recog sizing the evils due to alcoholism and not hesitating to paint them in their true colors, they point out that much harm can be done by over-zeal- ous persons who preach extreme doc- wines.\u201cWe may here,\u201d says the report, \u201crecall the words of Henry Ward Beecher: \u2018If you say to me that I ought not to drink, perhaps I would agree with you; but if you tell me 1 must gor drink, I will drink, because 1 have a natural right to do so\u2014to ériak what I please.\u201d \u201cThis.\u201d says the report, \u201cis the general feeling when we endeavor to impose our owa line of conduct upon: those who do not share ouf views.\u201d The main recommendations eome wader nine heads, these being: The education of the people, teaching in the schools, diminution of the res- murants, the bars, retail liquor shops, compensation, execution of the law, beer and wine, and the rehabilitation ef mebriates.It is pointed out that education is tite most effectual means to combat alcoholism.It is not merely a question \u2018of enacting temperance legislation but also of convincing the publie of their wisdom.And this work of education is not the work of a day or of a year.Time and patience are necessary and public opinion must not be the result of fear of force.The Commission also suggests that the question of temperance be dealt with in the schools, not by means of lensons to be learned by rote, but by object lessons to be given with charts end illustrations.But heré_also the executive should \u201cbe on its guard againet à teaching which would be seif-dextroying by reseon of its ex- aggtéations.The mord aspect shoulé -\u2014hs Jeée in the \u201cof the dmg, 9 the différent denombighions™ ¥ It is suggested that the sumber of Bcenses of hotels and restaurants in the city of Quebec be further reduc- cé tn 50 and that the number in Montread should be fixed at 350, while all so-calied restaurants that furnish liquor -without giving food should disappear.- The Commission considers that it is the bar-room which does the great-, est evil and that to ic therefore the attention of the Legislature should be especially directed.In fact.the gradual abolition of the bar is recommended to the government, in the interest of the rising generation.The bar is condemned on the ground that people encourage each other to drink there and this leads to excesses.It appeals to the gregarious -instinct sud physicians consider the mode of drinking at a bar is extremely prejudicial to health.The cafe system with chairs ani tables isto be substituted by d:grees as opportunity arises.As for the ~etail liquor shops, it is suggested thit the number of these should not e«ceed that of hotels and restaurants, this reform to be brought shout by gradual dimiaution and can- eslling of licenses for infractions of the law.And in every case where there is an application for new licenses, the applicant must separate the liquor business from the grocery stere.Although the principle of compen sation was admitted at the last session when the Legislature diminished the number of licenses in Quebec the ion now says \u201cit would per- bape be equitable to apply it to the eso of those hotel and restaurant Sitansees in Quebec and Montreal, the renewal of whose licenses will be refused, But ro compensation should be granted ir.future, As for the execution: of -the law, it is recommended that the Province be divided into two divisions, with two Seense tommissions, one in Montreal aad the other in Quebec, to supervise tbe execution of the law throughowt the entire province.With other extensive powers the Commission would have that of trying persons for drunkengess, while a licensee would ipoo facto and at once love his license when condemned for a second offence.The cost of the Commission would be borne by raising 3 tax om the [soos hotels snd restaurtats.Additional recommendations are to the Commissioners should have the right to cancel the licenses of theses whe keep uncleanly the effect that - es hotels; that in.future ac new estab- lishosent shall be licensed if the prem- \u2018ses are less thm 300 feet distant from any church, chapel, college, convent, public school, manufacture, factory, public market or shop or departmental store in which more than 25 persons are employed; that sample and commission licenses should be granted only in cities and towns; that no license should be granted at ex hibitions and races; that the third without a license should be imprisonment without the option of a fine; that no express company or trinspor- tation compasy shall transport intoxicating liquors under condition of payment therefor to the carrier or his agent or another; that druggists should not sell more than six ounces of alcohol at a time; that Labor Day and Confederation Day should be added to the days of closing; that the hour of opening in the morning should be half an hour later; .that there should be no baré où stears- boats; , that the delivery of liquor from retail liquor stores must be prohibited after seven o'clock on Saturday evenings; that the law be amended to prevent bottlers frie éfréulet- ing in the country amd selling\u2019 from house to house}.thas if be forbidden to advertise the sale of intoxicating; liquers by means of suggestive ad- verfsements teading to induce the.public, so believe that the use of ia- toxicants is beneficial to mind or trody.There are.no doubt, several of the suggestions made by she- Commission which it may not be well to, enforce ut this period.On the other hand, the report contains much that is iliuminat- ing and practical and will no doubt furnish the basis of excellent legislation in the near future.AUSTRALIA'S EXAMPLE.The British parliamentary party has reached South Africa in its tour around the world.It undertook to visit Cavads,.Australia - and, South Africa in three months.Now that it has reached the third stage of its journey, some of its members seem troubled with nostalgia.\u201cWe want to get home; that is what's the matter with us,\u201d said Mr.Will Crooks at Cape Town.Mr.Hamar Greenwood, it seems, went no farther than the second stage, and proceeded directly from Australia to England.Tn the London papers he is giving freely the impressions made upon him in Australia 4 As 8 mative of Canada, he is able to contrast affairs in Canada and Aus- And the principal thing he noticed was the perféet unanimity of the public men of Australia in all matters of defense.\u201cWhere Australia scores just now.\u201d he says, \u201cis in the imperial sense.The government and the opposition are one when questions military or naval arise.There is no public man in Australia who is not in favor of the cadet movement.* * There is a great deal of comment at the Antipodes and a general tone of regret that Canada cannot agree on a naval scheme.The Australian and New Zealand fleets were non-partisan questions from the date of the naval conference, and are still kept noa- partisan questions.\u201d It was the hope of most patriotic Canadians, when the naval question arose, that the statesmen of Canada woul! exhibit a like elevation of sentiment regarding it.They had hefore them the example of the mother country, where Unionists and Liberals never dream of centending over a matter of national safety, and where the opposition in parliament could invariably be relied upon to support the government proposels for huge expenditures on warship building, Certainly Mr, Borden did everything in his power to keep his naval proposals above the plans of party politics, He took the advice of the British admiralty, and simply propased doing what the admiralty advised him it would bc most helpful for Canada to do.At that juncture, Sir Wilfrid Laurier had the chance of his life to show himself a true Briton.His natural and proper course under the circumstances was to second the premier\u2019s motion, and settle the matter at once in a manner that would redound to Canada\u2019s credit all around the world.But he chose to be swayed by the picayune spirit of a ward heeler.At his instance the government measure became a football of party strife, amounting to pandemonium.Canada stood disgraced in the eyes of every other part of the empire, and an object of derision in the chancelleries of Europe.Mr.Greenwood says Austeslisns and New Zealanders are very keen for another naval conference, as they consider there has been à complete change in world policies since the last one.\u201cThe feeling is that it skould be held in London.\u201d From other sources we learn that there is some talk of the next naval conference being held in Vancouver, as s helf-way house in the worldwide sphere of naval operations.It is more likely, how penalty for selling intoxicating liquors a \"k ( : _ E QUEBEC CHRONICLE.| ever, to be held in Loadoa, owing to the necessity of consultation with the authorities of the admiralty.Anyway, who would want to see such à continues in thç unique and shameful position of having done absolutely mo- thing toward imperial defense?The less public our humiliation the better.EANANRARG GREER a

INSURANCE CANADIAN BODY CONSIDERS QUEBEC SYSTEM INCONSISTENT AND BURDENSOME.Waterloo, Ont, Nov.21\u2014The members of the Canadian Life Officers Association held their annual meeting at the home office of the Mutual Life, Waterloo, Ont., today.It had been the custom in the past to con- as a majority of the company\u2019s head offices are located there.This year, however, in response to an invitation of the retiring president, Mr.George Wegenast, the members agreed to gather in Waterloo.T) this Anglon town the phrase the \u201cHartford of Canada,\u201d has been applied.three fire and two life insurance corm- panies having originated here.The principal subject discussed was the taxation of life insurance premiums.The much discussed question of co-operative publicity was deferred and will probably go by default.In regard to the question o1 taxation of life companies premium income, the net result of the confer ence indicated an unanimous feeling that life insurance taxation, more particularly in the Province of Quebec, should be more consistent and uniform and less burdensome to pil- icy holders.It is beieved that the concerted effort which will be put forth on behalf of the relief of the policy holders will bear fruit.The awakened public sentiment has now shown that whatever be the burdens or exactions placed upon the companies, these in the end are transfer- ed to the policy holders and are, and their dependents.Taxation of all kinds, when levied oa the premiums in particular directly increases the cost of the policy or deducts the result under the policy.This in many cases becomes a great hardship to the insurer of small means, particularly of the laboring classes.The newly elected officers are: President, T.B.MacAulay.F.I.A.F.A.S.; first vice-president,

also rode the other two Sifton entries, Confidence and The Wasp, and while he was dissppointed in the failure of Confidence to equal his record made at Cttawa of 8 feet 1-2 inch, he was well pleased at Capturing the cup and the next two prizes.France won the America Cup, presented by \u20182.K.G.Billings for the jumps, over the course by teams of three horses, ridden by officers of the same

St Quebec.Tel.245.New York, Nov.21.\u2014A dull dragging market, with stocks going down under some slight dribbling liquidation and absence of support describes the dealings which have taken place today.Out side of one or two specialties like Alaska Gold, which sold st the lowest it has touched since it was listed in the exchange, and New Haven, which broke down close to its former low level, changes have been small and general inteFest entirely lacking.There was no further news from Mexieo where affairs seemingly are to be allowed to drift along in the present condition for some time yet, and the engagement of $1,500,000 gotd for Canada created but little interest in the present condition of the money market and in view of the fact that the banks continue to gain quite freely from the interior.Leading issues like Union, Redding, Steel and Amalgamated all closed at small fractional declines and while the general tone of the market was heavy during most of the day, it was at on time weak.In the last few minutes some covering by room shorts was sufficient to convert in many instances small fractional losses into correspondingly small fractional gains.Total sales, 109,486; bonds, $1,274,- 000.CLOSING MARKETS LETTERS.Received by Breen & Gourdeau, stock brokers, 63 St.Peter St and 6 Sault au Matelot.New York, Nov.21.\u2014The character of today's stock market was unchanged from that which has existed for some time, and transacticns, professional in nature, showed the smallest total for any full session since the middle of July.No news of important bearing developed, price changes were unimportant and no relief from the uncertainty that has so long characterized the stock market was suggest- .| ed.The tone, however, appears good, with indications pointing toward a sold-out condition existing.For the present, we believe the usual market leaders a purchase on setbacks for a turn.Boston, Nov.21.\u2014Scattered selling orders in copper stocks today.The changes in the metal prices did not bring in any substantial buying.Coppers are cheap, but the lack of confidence keeps buying down.Chicago, Nov.21.\u2014With wheat on an export basis in all directions there is little to be expected on the short side, but with everyone making every effort in our Northwest and Canada to push wheat into export position it takes the edge off of the buyer.The next move of any importance in value, however, we expect, will be on the tong side.Corn has long suffered a severe decline.Much of it was due to the prospect of heavy arrivals at Kansas City next week and continued

residing and doing business in streets through which the street cars pass, have come to feel that the Quebec Railway, Light, Heat and Power Company, should bear its share of the extra cost, by increasing the allowance the Company grants to the proprietors in connection with the removal of the snow.When the Q.R, L., H, & P.Coinaugurated its electric street car company in Quebec, the Company entered into an agreement with the proprietors residing along the streets through which the railway tracks lined, to pay a portion of the cost of the removal of the snow from ten to fifteen cents per lineal feet in front of each property.When this agreement was entered into, the cost of snow removal was from 50 to 75 per cent less than the rates now asked by the snow contractor, hence the demand of the proprietors.That the company should pay its share of the increase.The question having become acute, a Chronicle representative paid a visit to the City Hall yesterday, to take cognizance of the terms of the contract and agreement of the City with the Q.R.L., H, & P.Coin regard to the removal of snow from the streets wherein the street cars operate.He found that there was nothing in the agreement that binds the Company to remove the snow from the streets.The following is a copy of the clauses in the agreement with the City and the Q.R., L., H.& P.Coin conformity with the contract, th>< deals specially with the removal oY snow: Clause 16: \u201cThe Company shall remove the snow and ice from the | bute to the increased rate of remov- Miss Josephine Choquette, daughter of Senator

R.Campbell, of Torontoremoved all, or a portion of the snow and ice, between the two sidewalks, on the streets, or part of streets traversed by the cars of the said Company, including even the snow thrown or Ialling from the roofs of houses in the said streets, and on demand, the Company shall be bound to reimburse to the City, one-half the cost of the removal of such snow and ice.\u201d The officials of the City Engineers Department are of the opinion that the citizens of Quebec, comprising | the proprietors along the car lines, have no valid claim on the Q.R, L., H.& P.Co, to oblige them to contri- ing the snow.One of the officials recalled to mind a certain lessee of the Seminary property on the Grande Allee, took action in the Superior Court to compe] the Company to remove or pay the cost of removal of the snow om the frontage of the property he leased, and the Court decided against him.The by-law provides that all riparian proprietors must keep the road in front of their premises clear of snow above four inches of ice on the road, or streets.The Company some years ago entered into a friendly agreement with the householders to allow them a certain sum for cartage on the cost oi the removal of the snow and has kept its agreement.though it was not in anyway obligatory.City's Legs] Opinion, The Chronicle later called at the office of the City-Attorneys to discuss the question and obtain their legal opinion, Mr.Chouinard was seen, and is of opinion that the Q.R., L.H.& P.Co.cannot be compelled to pay any increase of the amount than JEALOUSY OVER INVITES TO WHITE HOUSE WEDDING Washington, Nov.21.\u2014Regardless of the fact that the White House is not the most commadious mansion on the carth, and that the East room can scarcely accommodate more than 500 or 600 guests at a time, the invitation list for the coming marriage of Miss Jessie Woodrow Wilson to Francis Sayre of New York is charged with the awful responsibility of having started a real social war.There are recriminations and heart burnings already.Everybody in Washington who considers herself, or more particularly herself and husband, as members of upper tendoin.has it now allows.He said that the agreement between the Company and the riparian proprietors was a private one, advanced by -the Company, and track between the rails of the said railway, and to the extent on the outside thereof.of two feet in breadth on each side.and it shall not use salt to melt the same except on the rail.over grades, curves and switches, and on the sidings.During the summer season the Company shall also keep the said track in good order, the same as in winter.Clause 17: \u201cShould the City Council deem it advisable, it may order, that the City Inspector shall cause to be any jurisdiction in the matter.\u201cSome years ago,\u201d said the City Attorney, \u201cthe corporation of Montreal took action against the Tramway Company in that city to pay a portion of the cost of the removal of

confirmed in the Company's favor.\u201cThe contract and agreement between the City of Quebec and the Montreal contract were identically the same, the clauses in the Quebec contract, being copied from the Montreal contract.The final judgment rendered in favor of the Montreal Tramway Company, was given by the Privy Council in 1907.\u201d Mr.Matthews Interviewed.Mr.H.E.Matthews, general man- sger of

the cost of removal of snow ; has increased, it is no fault of ours, it is more the fault of the people, who should get together and deal with one contractor for each street, instead of thirty or forty carters, One contractor would do the work for a much lower price, and everybody would be satisfied.\u201cI have a very good ides of what it should cost to remove the snow from the streets of Quebec As our Company have to do its own removal | from Maple Avenue, St, Foye and St.Louis toads, and we are prepared to remove the snow from all City streets in which out cars operate, if the City should desire, at a fair and reasonable cost.\u201cIn regard to the present agitation over the cost of snow removal.and the demand that we should be forced to psy more hy the Public Utilities Commission.All ! have to say it, the Public Utilities Commission have absolutely nn jurisdiction.This ques tion has already beer Hefore the courts.and we welcome wudther sult, confident of the

finished digesting his last meai at the moment of his death, countless centuries ago.This the savants are for the first time able to study accurately the nature of the flora of the far-distant epoch.They have simply to examine the contents of the mammoth's stomach.He was found in an absolutely complete condition in a strata of ice.The skin, which is without a scratch, is covered with reddish hair, thick and soft to the touch as that of a lap dog.The work of digging out the monster from his primeval cold storage and bringing him to Paris was one of extreme difficulty.The bedy was cut carefully into pieces, each one labeled, and then carried 1800 miles to railway line on dog sledges.PHONES 5630-5631.All kind of fresh cheese: Roquefort, Gruyere, Oka, Edam, Holland, Camembert,
