children are made the slaves of their captors.\u201cThe indifference ther to human life and human suffering is something the people of the \u2018United States or England would hardly eredit.On a certain Bolivian river a small trader angered a: the illness of five of his Indians had them put on a rock in a rapids to be eaten by alligators.Another Bolivian employer punished a native workman by tying his hands behind his bark with fine cords and keeping him thus until the circulation stopped and mortification set in, As a result the Indian lost one arm and part of the cther.\u201cPractically the whole of the rubber product of the three countries in got by slave labor.The proprietor or director of a great estate appoints managers at various points and expects each station to maintain at all times its record output.Production must he kept up and ses kept down.The proprietor rately visits the stations but keeps cose track of the returns.\u2019 The manager to fails to deliver the goods has to go.The results of this system may readily be imagined when it is considered that the local rubber manager is the only law in his district.\u201d BIG CONTRACT AWARDED, Winnipeg, Jan.2\u2014O\u2019Brien, Fowler and McDougall Brothers of Ottawa were today awarded the frst big contract for the Greater Winnipeg water scheme, They will supply 400,000 ties for the railway to be built \u2018from Witnipeg to Skus!

furiously the entire \u2018ength of the board walk and the groups of bath houses, no great damage had been done up to a late hour.Long Island Endangered.On Long Island, as well as on the Jersey Coast, the situation in many places was regarded tonight as critical.Many of the temporary bulkheads erected after the storm on Christmas night have been swept out to sea.At Far Rockaway and Rockaway Beach, many small cottages have been washed out to sea and for a time several of the large summer hotels were in danger.Hasty rein- Edgemere's entire wateriront is in peril, huge seas washing over the 18- foot bulkheads which protect the place.In what is known as the Ham mells section every breakwater has been thrown:down and many buildings are in danger of collapsing due to a weakening of their foundations by the inroshing water.As had been feared the rising of the tide after midnight brought new ruin to Seabright.The water swept across railroad tracks in the heart of the town to Oceap

SOUGHT NEW RELIGION FROM CON- * STANTINOPLE \u2019 \u2014\u2014 From the very beginning of Russian history a close connection oftes hostile, sometimes friendly, has always existed between that empire and the City of Constantinople.That great capital of the Roman Empire of the East seems to have exercised a powerful fascination upon the minds of princes and people from the time of Rurlik the Northman, the first leader of the tribe of Russians, whose name comes to us out of the misty chronicles of the ninth century down to modern times.The barbarian chieftain saw in that wonderful city something beyond price, worthy of capture for itself alone.Later princes and czars bave seen in it a centre for extended commerce and wider rule.But it was not with the thought of conquest that Viadimir, called the Great, in the latter part of the tenth century sent messengers to Constantinople.It was rather to inquire into its religion, to see if it was to be preferred to any of those whose representatives had been to him when it was reported that he was seeking « new religion in the place of the pagan worship of the god Perune.And then, so the story, partly true and partly legandry, comes to us of the adoption of the religion of the Greek Church by this warrior-chief, whose rule extended over only a small part of what we now call Russia, and whose capital was the City of Kief, on the banks of the old Borysthenes, the modern Dnieper.To command his subjects to be Christians was enough.So the priests brought from Constantineple stood on the high bank of the river and read the baptismal service while the people jumped into the water and were baptized by wholesale.Then they lashed with many stripes the wooden image of their old god and sent it floating down the stream toward the sea.From that day to this the church of Russia has continued as a branch of the Eastern, or Greek Church, The Russians soon had the Scriptures in the Slavonic tongue, a dignity unknown at that time to any of the dialects of Western Europe.The religion thus enjoined upon them was, of course, mixed with their old pagan forms of worship and exercised but little influence upon the daily lives of rulers or people; and yet some names in the long list of princes of the house of Ruri will always be remembered, suggestive as they are of love of justice and right living, The early church of Russia boasts of many prelates notable for their piety and patriotism.None.however is more celebrated than Nikon, born in 1613 and consecrated patriarch of Russia in 1652.He may be called the greatest character in the Russian hierarchy.Priests and patriarchs before him had done much for their country.More than once were the princes of Moscow encouraged by the words and blessings of a Sergius or tt rt RY examination of the boy and learned that a \u201cpal,\u201d Alfred Brain, aged il, war hiding on a verandsh at 220 Dovercourt Road.and was watching the houte while another lad, Malcolm Dodson,

they state | thay \u2018they had entered a poolrcom on Du.idas strect and stolen the goods.eT « Philaret to go forth against the Tartars.Dut \u2018Nikon may be called a statesman as well a9 an ecclesipstic.By some he bas been called the Russian Chrystom.Again he has been styled the Russian Wolsey and the Russian Luther.He was the first Russian reformer.He fiunded hospitals and almshouses for orphans, widows and the aged.The Oriental seclusion af women was infringed by bis com- niand to the empress to ia church publicly by day, instead of by night, as heretofore.The baptism of the Western Church were recognized as valid by him.Boiks were multiplied.Greek and Latin were taught in the schools.Nikon himself preached in the churches, an astonishing thing in a land where preaching in any living, practical manner had not been heard for centuries.Reforms in doctrine were not so necessary ner se natural as in the West Purifics the Priests.The work of Nikon, therefore, was turned towards purifying the lives of the priests, He was severe, and at.times barbarous, ae became the nature of the man and the character of his church and country.Priests found in a state of intoxication were stripped and scourged.Those persisting in dissolute lives were sent to Siberia.Sensitive to the last degree in regard to the obsérvance of the ritual and the ceremonies of the Russian Church, his heart was open to the church and the empire of Constantinople.\u201cI am a Russian.\u201d said he, \u201csnd the son of a Russian; but my faith and my religion are Grecian.\u201d At last the hostility of the priests and the alienation of the czar, Alexis, formerly his friend,.brought about his downfall \u2018and he was deposed from all his ecclesiastical functions and banished to a distant monastery.Nikon is the central Igure of the period in which he lived; of for more importance than any of the Romanoff emperors before Peter the Great.He towers mentally and spiritually above the minds of his time as he did with his majestic body, 7 feet in height, above the men around him, who shrunk into pigmies by his side.He was a resolute, active onward leader; a rough reformer; the proper forerunner of that still greater reformer who was yet in his boyhood when the struggle of Nikon with his world was ended, and his gigantic form was laid to rest in the Chapel of Melchisedeck in the Convent of the New Jerusalem.Russia, as the Rusian poet sings, was the hard snvil and Peter was its terrible hammer.The blows fell upon the State, church and social customs.Passing over at this time the political and social reforins of this strange man, brief mention must be made of the changes which he introduced into the church.Everywhere when on his teavels he madeé most careful inquiries about the different forms of religion.He heard discussions of doctrine.He attended church worship.He talked over the English Church with Bishop Burnet and Archbishop Tenison.He attended a Quaker meeting.At Dantzic he listened attentively to a Lutheran sermon.He looked at the drinking cup of Luther in Wittemberg and asked that he might cary it away, and when this was refused, dashed the cup to pieces in his anger.He sent home two vessels loaded with books on Dutch theology.He sent envoys to Rome to make inquiries about the Latin Church.As the representatives of the different faiths appeared to Vladimir of old and each hoped to win him, so the Pope, the Sorbonne, the Episcopalians of Scotland, the English nonjurors, tried to secure his ecclesiastical alliance.As regards matters of faith, however, Burnet was no doubt entirely correct when he said: \u201cHe was desirous to understand our doctrine, but he did not seem disposed to mend matters in Me +y.\" He had no small amount of superstition.Upon the blade of the sword that he wore at Pultava is inscribed a prayer and Her\u2019es to You and Me some and satisfying, Postum is made of clean, hard wheat and a small percent of New

every effort, in gonjunction with the Dominion and Provincial Governments to attract settlers and capitalists to Canads.Every city, town and hamlet is thoroughly alive to the possibilities of making à grest sation North of the forty-nine parallef and is, therefore, offering its induce- nents to the seteler and to the manufacturer to make Canads their home.The Canadian Pacific Railway has @ very well organized Industrial Department which makes 3 specialty of offering inducements to the American \u2018as well as to the British or Continental Europesn manufacturer to coms to Canada.Cheap industrial sites.\u2014 in many cases, at but little mors than nominal figures\u2014together with good.rallway location, cheap power, satisfactory labor conditions and suitable markets are some of the offerings made.Some cities offer free factory sites.With a Government fully sympathetic with the railwey,.industriel and sgricultural development, Canada is making steady progress.Nowhere in the world have cities and towns sprung into existence so quickly as im Western Canada.This is not a spasmodic br unstable growth\u2014it ls rea! and lasting, fog the majority of these cities which Jive sprung up so Quickly are today growing almost as Fapidly as they did in Yhe begin, ning, ' .American capital has found.in the Weat a fertile soil, for its extensions.The American Consul claims that cighty per cent of the population in Calgary, fo.example, ia American.American factories, institutions.and stores are to be found at almost every tutn.No very sceurate record hag bean kept of amy of these.All the data which is presented to the public on this scare is that furnished by the Railway, whieh hes a record of all the American Eastern and Western firms\u2014se well as othere\u2014which have located industries on its lines.Ja the past two years, over fifty million dollars worth of such factories have een established.This is exclusive of the mining and lumber interests which, & the West alone, amount to as much more.» United States Government reports bear out the statement that all over the United States the tendency among tie principal manufacturing interests is toward tie establishment of plants in Canada, and that.the movement has been going on far many years.It le estimated at the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce of tha Department of Commerce that, Amesi- :an capitel invested ia.Canads now aggregated $600,000,000.Dig Increase In Savestments There het bien remarkable in.trense im American \u2019 ~ qu opment of water power, There has | ; | their Saished investments 3 thromghont the Bimision within the vast Tew pears \u2018Accotding to figures collected fdr the five years\u2019 period, 1905-9, inclusive, the amount of American investments was $905,000.an Mad, 1911, it- was estimated that These.investments were aproximately $437,143.21.Sinte thel,'scaording to the belief of elficers of the Govern: ment who, have made a study of the subject, there has been an additiznel investment in the neighborhood of 080,800.eens repocty.on the subject from American cononls aoû other sources of information in.Consds, have net beta collected reqently, but.officials are sptisfied the estimate of half a billion.dollars of capital invested is oot far out of the way.While many of the investments ere in lumber mines farms sand ostein] resources of the Dominion, & vesy large amount of American capital kas beed sent into Canada, in récert years ta entablish hranches of inéaatries already in operation in the United Siates or to develop new lines of \u2018manufacture, \u2018Ansliyels of the Capits) luwvestnd, \u201cIn May, 191%, FW.Meld, the sub- agent \u2018of the British Board of Trade at Totonto, made\u2019 tile aproximate estimate of $417,148.22.* He bad prey- iously estimated\u201d thilt the American capital Invested ir Chhada was uh 000,000 and thé Sigher amount répre- sents 8 reconsideration of that es timate baged on mdre \u2018complete information.Sbefygéin\u2019 Field gave | these\u201d detailed eptiñiatez- of Ameñ: can invéstments: 200 companies with an sver- -

The rock that split the negotiations and shattered hopes of was the Qauestion of recognition of the union.\u201cIma nutshell the question is whether the union men should go back tn work with or without discrimination.The companies refused to do anything but discriminate agsinst siembers\u2019 of the union,\u201d said Mr.Densmore.\u2019 \u201cIt meang 3 struggle to the bitter end!\u2019 said Q.N, Hiltos, chief of toun- oc) for the Western Federation of Miners, who has repiesented President C.H.Moyef here since the lat- ters on.\u201cThe outcome is due entirely to the attitude of the companies, They wanted everything and would concede nothing.\u201d The union's last word was an offer tn withdraw the Western Federation from the field, its place to be taken by a union affiliated With the Michigan .{State Federation of Labor, the United Mine Workers or some similar body.This was rejected abselutely by the companies, The employing interest suggested to Mr Densmore that a secret vote of the men on strike, if properly safeguarded, would show a majority of them in favor of returning to work outside the union fold.When this was broached to the Fcderation men there was an immediate declination to submit the case to any such test.BURGLARS TAKE REVOLVERS.Winnipeg, Jan, Considerable un- 000 | easiness has been aroused in police circles over the robbery of the Hingston Smith Sporting Goods establish.mient in Main street, of a dozen automatic revolvers and enough ammu- nitiod to keep a small army supplied, by burglars who entered the store late Friday night.\u2019 OYSTERS.You can procure extra fine Blue Point Oysters : Pet barrel .£.\u2026.910.00 Per 109 count .\u2026\u2026\u2026.i1 > 200 Per dozen %.i05.u.\u2026 025 \u201cAH selectéd, , \u2018At the old stand, Montcalm Market (east end corner.) \u2018 M.HOGAN.ITALJAN BOARDER SHOOTS HIS LANDLORD Montreal, Jan.4\u2014With a bullet in his abdomen, Adolpho Braziano, 3! years of age, proprietor of an.Italian boarding house in Letourneau street, Maisonneuve, is in a critical condition at the Notre Dame Hospital while\" \"thé \u2018Maisonneuve police are searchiag \u2018for, Guiseppi Falconero, 40 years of age, a boarder at the house, who is alleged to have fired the shot during ap ajtercation in the victim's house early yesterday morning.CILIATION FALL \u2014 STRUG- À conciliation failed tonight, John B_| THE FASHIONABLE STORE THOS.DONOHUE .T.D.DUBUC, Successor.\u201cNEW Y Discount off all the Toys Disesunt off Embroidered Cushion Tops and Embreidered Crash Table Cantres.Discount off Dressed and Undressed Dolls-=.- SPECIAL ===.Colored Linen Cushion Tops in Pretty Worth 850.Special 490.THOS.DONOHUE T.D.DUBUG Successor, ° When thirst for a ASK FOR A WOLFE\u2019S and yeu have the world's best combisa- tion refresher and health tonic, tuning you up to & pitch of suprising fitness Welfe' i ing tosic for the a doy Beard old , activity by freeing thom.fram the clogging influence waste meiters.But that à is Wolfe's Sepa meen B diferent ae chalk from cheese from what you know as \u201c Hollands.\u201d Wolfe's Schnappe is the purest.ment whelssoms sad.Every def ie à drangie drone I ci Foe Obisinable ai all Hotels end Retail Stores.NEW YEAR'S GIFTS-Jàeger Pute- Wool LADIES\u2019 WEAR.!

New York, Jan, 3.\u2014Stocks were depressed abruptly today, after a quiet opening, which gave no hint of the impending decline.Although various adverse influences were brought to bear upon the market, they were not of sufficient importance to explain the sudden unloading of stocks in the first .! hour, during which leading issues were sold in blocks of several thousand professional origin.Towardithe close a partial recovery was made, and a few important stocks scored net gains.The point of interest to the professional trader was the increased susceptibility of the market to bearish pressure.Such a sharp setback had not occurred since the recent advance began.The readiness with which the list responded to pressure measured the diminution in buying at the higher level, and the weakening effect on the market of a reduction in the outstanding short interest.Activities on the long side were cure tailed Ly the tightness of money at the year end period, although the bank statement gave promise of an improvement.An actual cash gain of $11,788 000 was shown, and although there was an increase in loans of over $16.000,000, reficcting operations in connection with January | payments, a gain of nearly $3,000000 in surplus was reported.A large increase in business failures and further railroad reposts for November which showed severe declines in earnings, influenced sentiment unfavorably.Bears sought to make capital from the withdrawal of the Morgan firm from various directorates, on the ground that this step, with simi- { lar action to come on the part of other large tinancial itercats, indicated a period of transition which would bring unse\u2018tlement in the securities- market.- The Street was inclined, however, to take the opposite view, holding that such changes were in line with the trend of the times, and ultimately would improve the position of the financial community.Bonds were under pressure.Total sales, par value, $i .United States 3's were unchanged on call on the week.All other government bonds and the.Panama issues advanced % to %.Lo OIL& Savannah, Jan.3-Turpentine, firm, ; shipments, 26; stocks, 30,632.\u2018 Rosin, firm; sales, 2220; receipts, 2969; shipments, 877; stocks, 171,125.shares.The selling apparensly was of | NEW VORE STÜCK MARKET.Quotations on the New York Stock Exchange, as reported through Breseau & Dupuis, by Chas, Head & Co.Telephone 1596.- - Open, High.Low.Close.Analg Cop .73 - 73 72 72% Atchison .93% .\u2014 \u2014 934 Amloco .31% ~ \u2014 3K Am S & Ref.6344 63% 63% 63% Am Sug Ref.107% 107% 100% 107% Am T & T .11774,41834 11744 118% Ana Cop .33% M4 3% M4 Balt 80 .92° \"92% 92 92% Brook RT .8714.8714 87% 9% Can Pac Ry.208% 209% 207% 208% Ches & Ohio.60 60 594 sé Can .29% 2 28% 2 Erie .« 27% 27%.27% dost .#4 44 434 BL Gas Con .120% \u2014 \u2014 1294 Gt No pfd .126-#26 125% 12535 Inter.Met .HWO\u2014 \u2014 14% dopld.60 60 SOK 50% Lehigh V .148% 149 \u2018148 148% National Lead 44 + \u2014 4 Norfk & W .1024 ;- \u2014 104 No.Pacific *.10934 109% 109% 109% N.Y.Cent.90%.91 29% 90% New Haven .76 .77 75% 76% Pennsy .109 109% 108% 109% People\u2019s Cas.10% \u2014 \u2014 120% Reading .168% 168% 1664 167% Rock Tsld .13 .134 12% 134 do pfd .20% 20% 19% 204 Soo Com .1254 \u2014 \u2014 12544 Se Paul .9944 99% 94 99% So Pacific .80% 88% 88% 88% South Ry .23% 3% 23 23 dopid .76 \u2014 \u2014 76 Third Ave .44° 44 43% 43% Union Pac .155 188° 153% 154 US Steel .58% 58% 574 57% MEW YORK CLOSING LETTER.Received over the private wire of McDougall & Cow:n, Stock Brokers, 91 St.Peter St.Queber .Tuk 246 New York, Jan.3\u2014Under influence of N.Y.Central, Penna and other representatives of railway earnings for November, the market this morning suffered a chill.1 =, The liquidation was accompanied by heavy selling said to be for Boston bear account.: The whole market declined rapidly during first hour, Third Avenue and C.P.R.showing considerable resistance to general declining tendency.Rock Island collateral 4 per.cent bonds were notanly weak, selling down to 47%, 2 decline of 134 per cent.in the second hour tRere was cessation in selling pressure anid market rallied, and near last fight's close, with some ekceptions.a \u2019 N.Y.Central was \u2018considerably pressed for sale in early dealings but {losed about 1 point higher than the OW.or Sales; 200,000.amenant > = 7.Bank Statement.Reserve Decrease .:.$ 761,750 Loans, increase .«.10,130,000 Specie, increase .2,666,000 L.Tenders, Increase .1406000 Deposits, increase .21,481,000 \u201863 AT.PETER STRE BREEN & GOURDEAU STOCK AND BOND BROKERS.\u201cTelephone 188, .Private: wire connections: New York, Chicago, Montreal and Torofito Exchanges.Correspondents: Jenks, Gwynne & Co.mem!

that the public will understand both these questions in their true light Anenzation of Lietie River.This annexation was umsnimously considered necessary by the members of the City Council, owing te the construction of workshops at St.Malo, ard the buildings which the Federal Government have commeiiced on the Hunt property, along the Ste Claire.The contracts which are passed wif «He Federal Government for the cos- struction of the workshops at St Malo, placed us under the cbligation of annexing, not only a portion of the municipality, but the whole municipality.Besides, during the discussion on this question the Municipal Council of Little River declared that it was willing to annex, not only a portion of tte municipality, but the whole.We met about ten times, snecially for that purpose, and a bylaw, which was presented before the Quebec Council, was vigorously discussed on the first and second readings.While this work, which was published and seen by everyone, was gnirg on, no criticism ever arose, no Yiscordant voice was heard in the public with the exception of one newspaper, which.we knew in advance, was opposed to the construction of the workshops at St.Malo.If the city has for several years past revived from its apathy and if it has advanced in the path of progress, I think, that well-thinking citizens should study the question calmly.Everybody knows what St.Malo, St.Sauveur and St.Valier was ten yrars ago, and if one will cast his eves around today he will see that on all the lots vacant at that time are now built on.i Nohody need be a prophet to see that the city is bound to extend in that direction , owing to the con- stryction of the workshops at St.Malo and the other building, which the Federal Government are putting up on the Ste Claire route, and it is BC NT A intention Is to success, which in reall guished patronage.We Request You to Wait for Our January Sale which wili be the most Important we ever had.We will prove to you by the

the biggest expense is the keeping of the roads ini: order and the lighting.As regards the introduction of the waterworks, evurybody knows that |' the city by-laws exact that the water can only be istroduced when there is at least a revestue of $ per cent.interest.It is preferable for the city tv allow that municipality to indebt itself from chree to five hundred thoy- sand dollars, as happened in the case of Limoilou and the town of Montalu, and then be obliged to annex that municipality and begin over, all the work already extended, which we bad to do in Limoilou and which we will be
