The Quebec chronicle
Sous un titre qui a varié (Morning Chronicle, Quebec Morning Chronicle, Quebec Chronicle), un journal de langue anglaise publié à Québec qui met notamment l'accent sur l'actualité commerciale et maritime. [...]
Fondé en 1847 par Robert Middleton et Charles Saint-Michel, ce journal est d'abord connu sous le nom de Morning Chronicle. Son programme éditorial est tourné vers les intérêts britanniques, ce qui plaît aux conservateurs et aux impérialistes. Toutefois, cela n'en fait pas une publication politique pour autant puisque l'on y évite les longs éditoriaux et les sujets polémiques, probablement pour se différencier du Quebec Gazette, ancien employeur de Middleton et féroce concurrent. Le contenu est plutôt centré sur l'actualité (majoritairement en provenance d'autres journaux anglais et américains), sur la vie commerciale et maritime, ainsi que sur la littérature (peu présente pendant les premières années). La ligne éditoriale du journal est définie comme suit : « [.] in the management of The Morning Chronicle we shall, therefore, begin by simply declaring, that, as we glory in our connexion with the British Empire, it will be our undeviating aim and unremitting endeavour, to create and foster a cordial attachment to those time-honoured institutions which have made her so illustrious in the annals of the world ». (May 18, 1847, p. 2)

[Traduction]
« [...] la direction de The Morning Chronicle, par conséquent, débute en déclarant simplement que, comme nous sommes très fiers de notre relation avec l'Empire Britannique, notre but sera sans détour de créer et d'entretenir un attachement aux honorables institutions britanniques, qui se sont grandement illustrées à travers l'histoire mondiale ». Sous Charles Saint-Michel (1849-1860), le journal devient le porte-parole des aspirations de la bourgeoisie commerciale anglaise et les sujets politiques prennent une part plus importante. L'esprit protectionniste, rattaché au torysme, teinte la rédaction. Durant la période de la Confédération, le Morning est utilisé comme tribune pour faire la promotion des idées de John A. Macdonald. Toutefois, l'attrait premier du journal reste avant tout la vie relative au commerce. En 1874, une fusion avec The Quebec Gazette met fin à une concurrence jugée ruineuse. Fondé en juin 1764, c'est l'un des plus vieux journaux d'Amérique du Nord. Une nouvelle entente survient en 1924. Pour mettre fin à une concurrence qui les affaiblit, le journal alors connu sous le nom de Quebec Chronicle and Quebec Gazette et le Quebec Daily Telegraph (fondé en 1875 par James Carrel, il défend les idées populaires et est reconnu comme étant libéral) s'associent et deviennent le Chronicle Telegraph. Les nouvelles prennent une place prépondérante dans les colonnes de la « nouvelle » publication. À partir de 1934, le journal est connu sous le nom The Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph. Il paraît toujours aujourd'hui. Voici les différents titres que le Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph a connus depuis ses débuts : Disponibles en ligne : The Morning Chronicle (Jan. 1847 - Nov. 1850) The Morning Chronicle and Commercial and Shipping, 1850-1888 The Morning Chronicle (Feb. 1888 - May 1888) The Quebec Morning Chronicle, 1888-1898 The Quebec Chronicle, 1898-1924 Non disponible en ligne : The Chronicle Telegraph (1925-1934) The Québec Chronicle-Telegraph (1934 à ce jour)

was again op the stand.and ar this sitting it | was decided «to.have all the witness- | es as well as the three accused, Hon.- Messrs, Berard and \u2018Bergevin, and Mr.J.O.Mousseau, appear before the.cenmmittee at its next sitting, on -Mondiy night -a1-8:30.0'clask.Safety of conduct has now been guaranteed the witnesses by a motion presented by Sir Lomer Gouin in the Assembly yesterday afternoon and a somewhat similar motion by Hon.Mr.Perndeau in the Upper House last night.Both Hon.Messrs.Perodeau and ! Chapais gave emphatic denials to the alleged statemerts of Mr.J.O, Mousseau, in the Montreal Daily Mail, that ie had secured their -upport for the Montreal Fair Association Bill, A new member has been added to the Investigaion Committee of the Assembly, Mr.A, Bernier, of Levis, withdrawing, and Mr.Lavergne taking his place, MORNING SITTING.Mr.Beck Examined Before Special Investigation Committee.For over two hours yesterday morning Mr.Fdward Beck, former president of the Montreai Herali Publishing Company and editor in chief vf the Montreal Herald unfold- cd before the members vf the Special Ingestgation Committee of the Legislative Assembly how detectives from the Burns agency came to be employed to uncover corruption in the Legislature.The journalist told of how he had overheatd through the detec- taphone, a twenty minute conversation between Mr.J.O.Mousscau, ex-Chairman of the Private Hills Committee in-the office of Mr.Sampson in the Duluth Building.Montreal.Mr.J.L.Perron, chief counsel and Mr.A.EF Rôbert, president of the Montreal Tramways Company, who are members of the investigation committee were watching his every move as he told of how the sleuths had been employed to frustrate Tramways and other legislation which it.had been reported would be presented.The proceedings were sensational in their interest and were marked by occasional clashes between Mr.Marechal, counsel for Messrs.Macnab and Nichols and Mr.Perron.8afe Conduct Question.At the commencement of tie session Mr.Marechal explained that owing to indisposition, Mr.Macnab was unable to appear before the committee as ordered.\u2018The lawyer wanted a postponement of the sitting as he explained they would -not- send - word to their witnesses in New York to \u2018come to Quebec nntil.the.question nf safe conduct had.ben disposed of.Mr.Beck took a avat insidé the railing of the Private Rills.Commistee at 10:50 and until after 1 pon.was aub- lect to such a rapid fire of questions alternately from Messrs.Marechal, Perron and Chairman Taccherean that even the expert shorthand men reporting the proceedings were.compelled to work in short relays.{Reference was made by Mr.Beek te the employme:ff of a Burns operative to cover the City Hall in Montreal to watch for municipal legislation, inimical to the public interest, the detective whose name was J.H.Randall being employed on the Mont.i - me cam gere agree a 1 McGihbon was a [ + QUEBEC, SATURDAY, JANUARY 31, 1914 Motion of Sir: Lomer Couin ta This Unanimously \u2014They Will Appear Monday- \"Lorne McCibbon Fyrmished Money For The Operators real Herald \"as a refforter at the \u2018express request of Mr.Sampson of the firm of Martin and 89.in the Duluth building.DEA After Mr.Boek hasbeen sworn and had given his name; age and oocupa- tion, he was closely, gtestioned as to his first acquaitancedhip with Mr.Mousseau the ex-meltiber for Soulanges whose regigRétion: was, on Thursday, handed to the Prime Minister as a result of the charges of corruption launched against him.Mr.Beck explained that he had first met M+, Mousseau, the ex-Chaie man of the Private Bills Committee when as editor of the Montreal Herald, he had heen conducting a campaign against lagdiord and tenant laws.This was four or five vears gao, and Mr.Mousseau had been instrumental in introducing legislation to improve the tenant laws.Mr.Perron sought to nail Mr.Beck down to a\u201cdefinite statement that the detectives-had been employed to watch Tramways Legislation only, but the witness steadfastly declared that the Burns men had been sent for as a result of rumors he, Mr.Beck had heard that legislation inimical to the public interest was likely to be put through the Legislature at the present acsston.McGibbon Financed It.One of the nanst startling facts disclosed by Mr.Beck was that the financial costs of the whole investigation carried on both in Montreal and Quebec had been syuaranteed by Mr.D.Lorne McGjbbon.former owner ni the Montreak rlerald.who, on being approached $y Mr.Beck told him that if such ingestigation was to be in the public irdercst and if .he, Mrout of it as witness, He could go shead and take what steps he liked to investigate.In the course of his general ex- antination, Mr.Beck stated that when it was \u2018decided to put Burns detectives to witch legislation in Quebec and Montreal.he sent to the Burns agent in New York, asking that a representative be sent up to look into the situation.A day or so later, a representative of Mr.Eurns reported to Mr, Beck.Witness said he could not recollect his name, but he left for New York about 24 hours after he had arrived in Montral and a few days later was followed hy Mr.Sampson who reported to him.at the Herald office.\u201cWhen did you first meet Mr, Mousseau, that is recently,\u201d Mr, Marechal asked.In reply.witness said that it was en November 24th last.about 4 o'clock in\" the afternoon after the Burns men had been\u2018 operating for some time that he reccived a telephone message from Mr.Sampson to meet the latter.at his office in the Duluth building, Montreal.Watching The Game.\u201cT went over to the Duluth building and when I met Mr.Sampson he told me that he had sent for me as he expected a visitor in a few mins- tes.He wanted me to hear his conversation.* Witness explained that there were three nffices in Mr.Sampson\u2019s suite.One was occupied as à general office, Mr.Sampson used a second for his private office, while there was a third office with a door opening into it from the general cffice.Witness said that he was shown into the third office and a few minutes later a young man named Kelly came in.He carried a case with him and when he had opened it, he took out an instrument.explaining to him that it was a detectaphone.Meanwhile witness said he had heard someone come into the outside office.He had previously asked that the door be left open that he might see who might be Mr.Sampson's visitor.He saw Mr.J.O.Mousseau enter and heard him pass into Mr.Samp;

will be introduced at an early date.This bill will set forth the number of members for each province, but will not state in any way how the ridings are to be constituted, this probably being left to a committee of the House, as in 1903.The unit \u2018of representation obtained by dividing the population of Quebec by 65 will be 30811, This means that the members to be allotted to each province will be as fol- \u2018lows: Ontario, 82; Quebec, 65; Nova Scotia, 16; New Brunswick, 11; Manitoba, 15; British Columbia, 13; Saskatchewan, 16; Alberta, 12; Prince Edward Island, 3; Yukon Territory, 1; total, 234.In the redistribution Ontario loses four members, Nova Scotia two, New Brunswick two, and Prince Edward Island one, while Manitoba will gain five, Saskatchewan six, Alberta five, and British Columbia six.It is expected thät the unit of representation in the larger cities will be considerably larger than the unit in the less congested.It is likely to be in the neighborhood of 40,000, \u2014\u2014\u2014 ACQUITTED, Joseph Cote, the young man at- rested at Levis, and accused by Mr.Fradette, of that town, of theft, was acquitted yesterday in the Police Court by Judge

Mr.Hebert, Assistant General Passenger Agent.to meet the Council.At last.eveening\u2019s meeting of the City Council, His Worship Mayor ' A meeting; to which English people were especially invited, was held yesterday at the Gity Hall to discuss the proposed- coasttuction of the Hospital for tuberculdus patients.Amongst those present were: Messrs J.T.Ross, Dobell, Evans, Seifert, Stuart, Wiggs, Whitehad, M.Tessir, Sirois, Dr.Rousseau, Sir Adplphe Routhier and Mr.F.Roy.Sir Adolphe Routhier was elected chairman of the committee, and in 8 few well chosen words, said: \u201cThis construction was an absolute .neces sity, that nobody denied that; that he and all his French-Canadian friends were determined to carry the project through at all costs, the only question now being, whether English people were ready to help in the great work.To find out this was the \u2018ob- \u2018ject of the present meeting.\u201d Sir Adolphe ordered that it was well understood the Hospital would be opened to all, regardless of race, creed, and denomination; and he ended by saying that the erection of the Hospital for tuberculous patients is a work of preservation for English as well as for French people, and that suggestions from all interested would be welcomed.Mr.G, Stuart regretted the absence of many of hir.friends who were ont of town at present.He approved entirely of the project in question and considered it a necessity to isolate our tuberculous patients; whether it would be better for English people to build themselves: a small hospital for their sick, of to join the promoters of the work already started, was the thing which had to be considered.That his friends were all willing to help in some way he was positive; it only remains to decide by what means.Mr.Ferdinand Roy, who has, acted as secretary of the first committee of the Hospital, explained its constitution, and stated that nothing has been definitely settied about the general organization.It was argued from the begitining that \u2018a board of directors would be elected.which would comprise several English people.Me.Dobell dgubted if the estimates already furnished for the construction and maintenance of the Hospltal were high enough, judging from the cost of the Lake Edward Sanitarium.Dr.Rousseau.who is the chief organizer of the hospital work, deciar- ed that his information on the subject proved that each bed in such an hospital costs $1000.The codt of the construction as proposed, would \u2018be about $120,000.Nr.G.E.Amyot had enquired from the director of the New Haven Hospital for tuberculosis about the maintenance of the institution, according to their report, it would not exceed $20,000 yearly.The subscriptions so far have reached $60,000.The annual allowance of the Government and that of the City would be for the present, $7,000, but it is thought that the Government will raise this sum, as it is very favorably disposed towards an institution which would not only be a work of benev- lence or charity, but scientific training Dr.Rousseau did not question the possibility of finding means to build and maintain the said hospital, he believed that the Catholics could do it and if an appeal were made to English people it was not a case of helplessness, but a great wish to as- sociste with them in this important social work.YOUNG MAN ARRESTED, On « Charge of Stealing From His Employer.\u2018 Raoul Perreault, aged 1B years, who.managed a tobacco store on Mountain Hill, for Mr.Joseph Cota, was arrested on Thursday night last on the charge of stealing, by detective Defoy of the City police, and yesterday brought to the Police Court, where he was remanded to gaol pending Investigation, Mr, Joseph Cote conducts six cigar and tobacco stores in different sections of the city, and haa had considerable unfortunate experience with clerks in his employ, whom he detected in dishonesty, and heretofore simply discharged them without pro- sécuting, Raoul Perreault twas one of his brilliasmt and trusied- clerks, and some time ago when the lad managed No.2 store, he promoted him to the position of city salesman, but recently placed him in charge of No.4 store, located on Mountain Hill, Mr.Cote having reason to investigate his stock in No.2 store, found that he had been a victim of pil- tesing, suspecting Perreault, whom he placed such confidence in, be also investigated No.4 store, and discovered stock missing, aud later caused the arrest of the young accused.Mz.Cote places bis loss at $600 in goods and cash, and says, that though he je reluctant to Drobecute voung Perréault, he feels that for his own protection, aud the protection of society, it id his duty to make an example.PS of again being a candidate for the office of Mayor for another, term.In the course of h's remarks His Worship said that in consequence of the many insinuations and rumors concerning the administration of the city\u2019s affairs, and how the different works were carried out, particularly with regard to the laying of the new water main, he determined to seek re-election, and he hoped all the Aldermen would do the same.He wished to see all the works undertaken during his administration carried to completion, not only those under control of the city, but those under the Dominion Goyernment and Transcontinental Railway, about which he had been in negotiations with the Government and others on behalf of the city.With regard to the new water main it was his desire to be Mayor when it was handed over to and accepted by the city, and he would assume the whole responsibility fot the work.Certain people were asking for an investigation of municipal affairs, said His Worship.It does not require a grest deal of effort to have such an investigation.- He was pres pared to deposit $2,000, provided the parties talking investigation would do the same, or give bonds for that amount, and let the proceedings commence as soon as possible, and if there was any mal-administration proven against him or the Council during his term of ofice, he would personally pay all the cost of the investigation.On the other hand, if the accusers failed in their charges, they to pay the costs.The Mayor says he will fiold a public meeting in St.Peter's Hall.St, Sauveur, on Sunday afternoon, Ist February, at 2 o'clock, to which all electors are cordially invited.His Worship will then announce his program for the next two years.Several Aldermen and others will also address the e meeting.FACTS FOR THE WELL-DRESSED MAN Every man who wears Fash- ion-Craft Clothes

football was played as early as the-third century, in commemoration of a victory ovet the Roman legion at Chester, The first football used in the annual game, still played each Easter, is said to have been the head of a Danish invader.In the isle of Purbeck, too, says the London Chronicle, the quarrymen from time immemorial have perpetrated their claim to a grant of land, by kicking a football across it.In the fourteenth century the game was so popular as to call forth an edict forbidding it, on the ground that it interfered with the practice of more martial exercise.In the later times, Shakespeare referred contemptuously to the game, but perhaps few would be able to turn up readily the passage in King Lear describing \u201ca base football player.\u201d 10% Discount Off P.C.CORSETS

three tiorses in the Lincoln handicap were Nb, Dean Swift and Roseate Dawn.A press agent in London, wired the result to an Australian paper as foi- lows: \u201cLincoln Ob Dean Swift Roseate Dawe.\u201d The subæditor who was in charge had never heard of the Lincoln handicap, and for some time puzzled vainly over the mysterious message.Finaly be came to the conclusion that \u201cOb\u201d must stand for obit, the Latin word cxpressing a dedth votice.He accordingly turned out the following paragra h, which duly appested in print: \u201cWa deeply t to announce the death at Lincoln, of

President Wilson's appeal, made at the White House conference last Monday night, the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations today ordered favorable reports on a large number of arbitration treaties between the United States and the leading countries of the world.These were laid before the Senate later in executive session and will come up for ratification in the near future.This action will rehabilitate that extensive structure or arbitration which had been gradually falling to pieces by the expiration of the time limit of one treaty after another, un- tit all of them had either expired or wage about to expire, he far-reaching character of this group of treatics is shown by the which they are made, including most of the great powers of Europe, South America and the Orient.On the list are Great Britain, Japan, Italy, Spain, Norway, Sweden, Portugal, Switzerland and France, the pact with the latter having been ratified last February.A treaty of the same kind with Mexico expired last June and was not refiewed.The Senate committee considered today those treaties soon to expire and agreed, inasmuch as they are identical with the eight recommended for extension, that they should be | approved for extension as rapidly \u2018as they expire.Aside from the impbrtance of the treaties in the cause of arbitration, some of them have a larger significance in affecting the political and international relations between the United States and other countries.It is waderstood to have been the purpose of President Wilson and Secretary Bryan in urging prompt ratification to establish a Pacific bulwark which would fyrther lessen the possibility of complications on any of the existing foreign problems, including those growing out of the Mexican revolution, the Panama tolls question with Great Britain and the issues with Japan in respect to naturalization, land tenure, etc, STOMACH MISERY 0, INEESTON \u201cPAPER'S DIAPEPSIN® FIXES SICK, BOUR, GASSY STOMACHS IN FIVE

tonight by H.B.Walker, president aod general manager of the Old Dominion Steamship Line, through James Leyland, superintendent of the line, In his statement Mr.Walker says that Captain KE.E.Johnston, master of the Monroe, launched lifeboat No.7, with the aid of eight volunteers sad\u2019 then picked up 27 persona who had jumped into the water just before the liner went under, making the total saved by this boat 35.\" Equally good work was done by First Officer Guy: Horsley who, after launching bost No.3 with ten passengers, rescued 24 persons who jumped from the deck of the steamer.Lifeboat No.1 was smashed as she landed in the water and No, 3 capsized.\" - Fourteen persons were saved by two boats from the Nantucket, One of the life rafts of the Monro proved the means of saving the lives § six, while another caved leur persons.Second Officer J.KE.Gately went below immediately after the collision to ascertain the extent of the damage done.He found most of the pas- scngers on the promenade deck.He tried to get them on the bost deck but did not succeed.When the Monroe went down he floated off on a ladder and was later picked up.The law of the ses, that women amd children must be sived firat, cost \u2018the chief\u201d wireless operator of the Monroe his life, He was standing by boat No.3 when he saw a woman without 8 life belt, and promptly gave her

and B, B, Vernon.Due to the fact that they were unconscious from shock when picked \u2018 up, the names of thess passengers could not be learned earlier, When the preseace of anether vessel was suspectad by the officers of the Monroe, the statement adds, she vessel was immediately stopped and the whistle was blows once.This signal was answered by the Nantuck.In reply to this the Monsoe whistled twice, being answered in the same manner by the Nantucket, The Monroe then kept her whistle going, dut received ne further oi , seconds later the vasa] was rammed by the Nantacket abeft Na 1

PORMER WAS \u201cGLORIOUS DRUNK\" Cee Indianapolis, Ind, Jan, 30\u2014Scenss of the wildest disorder marked today\u2019s session of the convention of the United Mine Workers of America, which heard Duncan McDonald, sec- retary-treasurer of the Illinois miners declare that Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, was \u201cglorious drunk\u201d during the Sesttle convention and on other oceasion, Gompers\u2019 denial and the reiteration by Chatles H, Moyer, president of the Western Federation of Miners, that if the copper strike in Michigan were to fail, it would be due to the lack of financial assistance given by the American Federation of Labor.The delegates showed little sympathy for Gompers and he declared he was being tried \u201cbefore à jury whose minds were already poisoned,\u201d but ¢very point made by Moyer ind Mc- Donald was wildly applauded.After McDonald had concluded, the tumult was so great that Gompers, despairing of a hearing, put on his overcoat, and hat and started to leave.The delegates were silenced, however by an appeal from Moyer, and Gompers returned.Gompers sat within four feet of McDonald and, during the applause which greeted the statement that the head of the Federation was \u201cglorious drunk\u201d at Seattle, charges of \u201clar,\u201d \u201cslanderer,\u201d and the like were hurled back and forth by the two.In addition to the Seattle occasion, Mc- Donald ssid Gompers was under the inf'uence of liquor at the Atlanta convention.\u201cGompers had a snoot-full at Atlanta,\u201d asserted McDonald.\u201cHe has told you what a great friend he is of John Walker, our former president in Illinois.I saw Gompers in Atlanta after he had been celebrating and he tottered up to Delegate Groce Lawrence and threw his arms around his neck, saying: \u2018Johnny Walker, I love you like a\u2019 brother\u2019 \u201d In speaking further of the Seattle occasion, MeDonald said: \u201cAbove the obscene language and maudlin song, I recognized the voice of Gompers, who seemed to be trying to sing a solo and keep time by pounding on the table with a beer bottle, ge tell you Ahiey dida\u2019t have any glasses: there, (Mey had a tub, filled with bottled beer \u201cand eracked ice and on the table were half gallon decanters of whiskey.\u201d In congluding the Illinois = miner made:a plea that the delegates give close jttention to Gompers.SE fesent the hypocritical plea of McDonald for a hearing for me.\u201d | Gompers said, when the cheers had died down so that he could be heard.\u201cThe worst criminal in the land has a bettor show than I have here.\u201d \u201cOn the unsupported testimony of IN MISERY .AT MEAL TIME Indigestion Can Be Cured by the Use of Dr.Williams Pink Pills, If your digestion is weak you cannot derive proper nourishment from your food.The pain and distress you suffer is a protest from your stomach that it is unable to do its work.It is then that you lose all appetite, have dull headaches, acute pains in the chest and abdomen, heart-burn and other distressing, symptoms.; - You cannot cure indigestion by the use of laxatives, and pre-digested foods only make the stomach more sluggish.Indigestion can only be cured by giving tone to and strengthening the nerves that control the stomach.Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills have cured indigestion times without number, because they purify and enrich the blood.In this way they improve the appetite, dispel the torments of indigestion and enable you to derive benefit from the food you take.The following iss proof of these statements: Mrs.George Brien.Great Shemaogue, N.B., says: \u201cA few years ago ! was taken down with à fever which left me suffering from nervous stomach trouble.I apparently got over it, but the trouble could not have been wholly eradicated.as during the summer of 1912 I was taken down with it again.1 took many medicines, and was attended by two different doctors, but instead of getting well, seemed to be growing worse.I could not eat without suffering the most intense pains; even a drink of inilk seemed to upset me.1 glept prorly and at last dreaded to see night come.In this condition 1 saw in a newspaper the story of a woman who had similarly suffered and was cured through the ue of Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills, I decided to try the Pills ard found by the time I had taken three boxes that they were helping me.1 continued using the Pills until T had had disappeared, and I have to thank Dr.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills for restoring my health after 1 had practieaîly given up hope of ever be- ng well again.\u201d r.Williams\u2019 Pink Pills are sold by Ml medicine dealers or will be sent by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50, hy writing The Dr.Williams\u2019 Medicine Co, Brockville, Ont \u2014 taken eight boxes, when the trouble ; C -

pers and sesmship owners to make their transhipwent at Quebec.-To our tery great surprise, Major Leonard tells us, as yon will see by the enclosed.that he is unable to say what will be the probable cost of carrying wheat to Quebec by this road, and that he, does not know what it costs to send it to Montres! by the rail and water route.Nor can he say whether the figures we subsequently sent him showing a probable saving of one-quarter to hal the cost, are correct or even approximately so.Although, Major Leonard admits that the Transcontinental is 214 miles shorter from Winnipeg to Quebec than -the Canadien Pacific, and although its trains will, by his figures, be able to haut 1,780 tons as compared with 940 tons on the C.P.R., he is still of opinion that a large portion of the grain.will continue to be shipped by the C.P.R.to Montreal for export, and he adds that he considers that the harbor facilities and elevator capacity mow uader construction by the Harbor fision at Quebec will probably take care of all the traffic to be expected.When.Major Leonard makes this, statement he must, of course, be aware that the facilities he speaks of see not resched by the Transcontinental Railway tracks, that the elevator in gyestion is half a mile from them, ané-only of one million bushels capacig whereas, as Mr.Leonard doubtiegs.knows, the elevator capacity st1Fort Wiliam and other points on the Great Lakes necessary to handle the grain traffic of the C.P.R.alone\u2014with which the Transcontinental 4s supposed to com- pete\u2014amounts 40 38 million bushels.This question is of such vital importance, not oly to the port of Quebec, but to the ports of St.Joho and Halifax, and to\u2018 the farmers of the | Northwest, who have been calculating !

SEANTOR EHOQUETTE MO THE NEW HA ACCUSES MAYOR DROUIN OF DECEPTION IN THE MAT.TRA-WERE ENGINEERS DB- CEIVED?_ - Quebec, Jan.30, 1914.To Editor Morning Chronicle, Quebec.Sir,\u2014~I was amazed and somewhat amused this morning when I read the letter published in the \u201cChronicle,\u201d bearing the signature of Messrs.Gallagher and Forrester, of the Municipal Waterworks Department, in connection with the new 40-inch water main.I say 1 was curprised, because I recall several interviews given on different occasions by Mayor Drouin, and published in the Quebec press.Interviews that were endorsed by the same Messrs.Gallagher and Forrester that must cause the intelligent citizens to think that the public have been grossiy deceived by the Mayor, and- his too mentioned subservient City.Officials, who must have forgotten all they have said and written in the past, or they are themselves the victims of deception.Like a large number of citizens, and taxpayers of Quebec, interested in the new 40-nch water main, especially to secure a reduction of insurance rates I bave followed the work done on the construction of the new main, and like others, I have from time to time heard rumors bout the work that was to some extent alarming.However, 1 hesitated to express an opinian or to make vse of certain information that had teen communicated to me, in regard to broken pipes and defective work in general.From the fact that I was in the running for the office of Mayor, I thought it my duty to investigate conditions, and while recently in Ottawa, | wrote a letter to the contractor, Mr.Connolly, and the following is a copy: \u201cM.Connolly, Esq., Contractor, 91 Crescent st., Montreal.Sir,\u2014As a contractor for the new waterwork at Quebec, will you please tell me, if the rumors circulated around the streets, that you have much difficulty in putting water in the pipes, because they cannot resist the pressure, and, is well founded or not?As a candidate for the Mayoralty of Quebec, ! intend to attack the Drouin administration in regard to the water works contract, and the way the pipes were tested; according to my information, they were not properly tested although the City bas to pay a large sum for that kind of work Will you please give me, if you can do so, all the information on these important matters and accept my thanks in advance, .Yours truly, P, A.CHOQUETTE.N.B.\u2014Can Mr.Forrester give me any information on these maters?Please wire me answer, collect, to Quebec.1 did not receive an answer from Mr.Connolly prior to the meeting held in my interest on Sunday afternoon last, but on the same evening 1 received the following teelgram: \u201cMontreal, Jan.25, 1914.\u201cHon.P.A.Choquette, \u201cQuebec.\u201cOnly returned here this morning, regret I am not in a position to give you information adked for in your letter of the 20th.Mr, Forrester, consulting engineer for the City, cau give you all information you desire on subject.\u201c(Signed) M.CONNOLLY.\u201d The next day I communicated with Mr.Forrester, requesting him to please comé and see me at my house, at that time I communicated to him the contents of Mr.Conoolly's telegram, He graciously called on me, when I placed my views before him and requested him, without any indiscretion on his part, as an employee of the City, if he could answer the letter I wrote to Mr.Connolly, as suggested by the latter in his answer.Mr.Forrester manifested the greatest caution and was very non-committal in his answers in regard to the work of testing the pipes, the introduction of the water, etc.Finally, he made the following answer which 1 requested him, and he consented to put down in writing: \u201cMr.Forrester states that there has been the usual delays, in & contract of this magnitude, but everything will be perfectly satisfactory in due time.\u201d It is not my intention, to seek to make political capital out of the new 40-inch water main.! simply referred to it on account of the various interviews given from time to time by the Mayor, which bear the earmarks of contradiction, and 1 would like to ask the public if this latest statement of Mr.Forrester is in accord with the letter he signed with Mr.Gallagher.Moreover, of the words \u201cin dus time,\u201d are not rather vague, and a confession that he can give no hope, that the City will have its water by means of the new pipe within any specified time, notwithstanding the million dollars the City has disbursed for this new main, It would be interesting to know when that \u201cdue time\u201d shall arrive.Would it be in a month?or within the period of one year?\u2018 In the meantime the insurance underwriters are lying low.Takieg in the situation, snd not one word men- will Bad & relist, by « decréase je sATORD) oo ?exorbitant rate of insurance they âge called upon to pay.I do mot wish to raise the cry of slarm, but I do think it would be the correct thing ir.the intereat of the public, and as à guarantee to secure lower rates of insurance from the Fire Underwriters, that sa indepes- dent board of \u2018hydraulic engineers should be agpointed to investigate the new main and give their expert opinion.I made this suggestion, because with the number of citizens, 1 am sorry to say sre not satisfied, especially on account of information they have received from parties in a position to know, that the new main is | not, what it should be: Besides the responsibility, if any should exist, rests with the Mayor.My \u2018reason for ascertaining that the public bave been deceived is founded on previous declarations made by the mayor, and the engineers of the Municipal Waterworks Department.In proof of my contention, I \u201cwish to point out that cn the Sth of July last, Mayor Drouin in an interview with the \u201cL\u2019Evenment,\u201d which was endorsed by Messrs, Gallagher and Forrester, said: \u201cI am glad to announce that the water will be put into the pipe by the month of November next, and I am supported in this statement by Messrs.Gallagher and Forrester.\u201d In asnwer to an article published in the \u201cChronicle,\u201d on the 7th of November last, criticizing Mayor Drouin\u2019s administration, he said: \u201cthe new administration to .satisfy - the public, has undertaken to improve the water work, and in a few days, the 40-inch pipe will be completed, etc.\u201d On the 2nd of December last, Mayor Drouin bad published a letter in the Quebec press, headed \u201cThe Waterworks,\u201d and boasted of what he had done, over his own signature and again endorsed by the signature of Mr.J.Gallagher, waterworks engineer.In this letter Mayor Drouin said that out of 41,500 feet of pipes, would be in operation in a few days.Now, Mr.Editor,\u2014Is it not reasonable, that any citizen would be suspicious o fthe present condition of the new 40-inch water main, taking into consideration the various declarations heretofore given by the Mayor and corroborated by Messrs.Gallas gher and Forrester, which have not as yet ben verified.Does it not strike you, that there are good grounds for doubting any statement that Mayor Drouin and his engineers, may make at this stage of the game, on the eve of a municipal election, and it does seem that they measure the citizens of Quebec on a par with imbeciles.Tomorrow afternoon, at 2 o'clock, [ will hold a public meeting in St.Roch, to discuss the municipal situs- tion, and I have invited Mayor Dronin to be present and meet me in controversy; if he is again a candidate for the office of Mayor.I say this, because he bas not as yet declared his candidature for re-election, notwithstanding that he has a number of his friends circulating bis papers for signatures in the different wards of the city, and have obtained some false representations.; If Mayor Drouin really intends to seek re-election, he cannot decline to meet me on the public platiqrm, and if he persists in shirkicg the public, fet him be à man and publically declare whether be is a candidate or not, in order that I will be in a position to criticize his administration.(¥, JANUARY 31, 1914, | OWE MY LIFE TO They Blé Ma Norv Good Tha AH Othyr Traaimenls Combined [IEF Mrs.H.8.Willams Palmerston, Ont, June 20th.1913 \u201cI really believe that I owe my life to \u201cFruit-a-tives\u201d.Ever since hood, I have been under the care physicians and bave been paying doctors\u2019 bills.I was so sick and wors out that people on the street often asked me if L thought I coud along without help.The same.ol stomach trouble and\u2019 distressing headaches nearly drove me.wild time ago I got a box of \u201cFruis-aand the first box did me good.My husband was delighted and advised a continuation of their mse.Fruit-ae tives\u201d completely cured me, Today, 1 am feeling fine, and a phys ind ir in rie replied, \u201cI !
