Ottawa, Mar.31.\u2014\"In regard to degrading of the road ! have the highest authority.that of Mr.E.J.Chamberlain, president of the Grand Trunk Pacific, that we took the right position.We could take the grades out for less than half what the old commission paid\u201d was the answer of Hon.Frank Cochrane today to the oft-repeated charges of the Liberals that the present government had degraded the N.T.R.This statement was made in the course of the debate on the government resolution for power to lease or otherwise acquire that section of the G.T.P.between Fort William and Lake Superior Junction, or in other words the outlet to the Great Lakes.Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Hon.George P.Graham appeared in their usual role as special pleaders for the G.T.P.They argued that the N.T.R.way still incomplete and therefore it was necessary for the G.T.P.to acede to the goyermment's demands that they fulfil the original contract by taking over the road and operating it.They went still further, and stated that the changes made at Quebec without the chmpany's consent and the degradation of the road had relieved the company from carrying out its agreement to take over the road at any time.Hon.Arthur Meighen pointed out the necessity of the Lake Superior section to the operation of the N.T.R.This bill was purely a precautionary measure in event of the refusal nf the G.T.P.to carry aut its enntract or any extended delay in carrying it out.If such happened the government must operate the nad and they had to have running rights over this section for this purpose.If they had to take this section over.it would give them a powerful factor in any future negotiations with the G.7\".P.If necessary they would alsn take over the company's elevators and termin- de at Fort William.The whole trouble, he said, lay in the agreement formulazed by the old government with the G.T.P.There was nothing in the contract to deter: mine win the road was completed.The eastern sections had been completed for four years and there was nothing to force the GG.T.P.to operate this.Chief-engineer Grant had served notice on G.T.I» (hat the road was complete for operating purposes.The G, T.P.refused to ac cept this decision.The onty tribunal (Continued on Page Two) KILMARNOCK SCOTCH WHISKY |, | A.GRENIER.Grocer and Wine Merchant, Established 1882.94-96 St.John

WILL BE ENLISTED INTO REGIMENT FOR HOME SERVICE, + Liverpool, March 31\u2014Lord Derby announced today that the Guvernmeni was planning to organize the dock! works of Liverpool, under the name of First Dock Battalion ot the Liverpool regiment.The men are to be dressed in kbaki uveralls.This plau is to be adopted to prevent further delays in handling war supplies.Labor troubles among the workers on the Mersey recently has caused * serious embarrasment.The battalion will be made up of about 24X00 union men, who will hel enlisted under the military law with army pay, in addition to a guarantecd wage of 35 shillings weekly.It is said that both ship owners and | union officials favor the plan.The! men are to enlist voluntarily, with the stipulation that the battalion will he for home service only.Lord Derby will be in command of the reg:- ment.Guarantees will be given that the organization will not be used for strike breaking.Public Puzzled.The question of drink and its effe-t on the work which is considered necessary for the successiul prosecution of the war overshadows the present moment everything else in publie interest.The press and the public fa-, vor some drastic measures, a majos ity of the newspapers expressing the helief that tetal prohibition.which would apply to all classes, is necessary.The Governme:it.however, has: nnt, yet reached a decision on the question, although if Mr, Lloyd George and Lord Kitchener have their way it is helieved there will be total prohibition.To bring this about the Government must have an act of par- Gament passed.Tt is pointed out that to prohibit the sale of liquor only in the localities! where men are engaged in the manufacture of munitions would cause a great outcry, and that a./de from total prohibition apparently.the anly way of dealing with the matter is à further curtailment in the hours of | sale.Same persons favor prohibiting the sale of spirite but allowing | the sale of beer and wine.It is ua.1 derstood, however.that the feader: | in this matter would not he satisfied except with the most stringent ro strictions.The matter will require long enn.sideration, for there are the questions employment for the thousands of men and women who would be thrown nut of work.A4 à meeting of the Glasgow Liqua: dealers it was decided to ask Me Lloyd-George to receive a deputation from them which will suggest a dras- tie reduction in the hours fre the sate of liquor.The same deputation will confer with the Labor leaders.NATIONAL CASH ANTI-TRUST CASE Washington, March 31 \u2014Attorney- General

German submarines, the U28 and another, the number of which has not been ascertained, which have been operating off the west coast of England during the past few days, have added two more British steamers, the Flaminian and Crown of Castile, to their list of victims, totalling \u2018five since Saturday evening, : There was no loss of life on the Flaminian and Crown of Castile, the crews of each being given barely time in which to get in their boats.In the case of the latter vessel, however, the submarine fired before the crew left the stcamer and shells pass.cd along the bridge on which the captain and an apprentice were standing.The Crown of Castile was sunk by shell fire, but this did not prove sufficient to send the Flaminian to the bottom, and a torpedo had to be used.As an offset to this, a French destroyer rammed, and it is believed, sank a German submarine off Dieppe.As the destroyers have been unable to round up the submarines operating on the British coast, ship owners Rave petitioned the government to be allowed to arm their ships.This has not been permitted heretofore, as steamers could then be considered ships of war and be sunk without notice.The heavy loss of life in the sinking of the Falaba and Aguila has aroused a storm of indignztion throughout the country, and the demand is made that the =rews of submarines be treated as pirates, if captured.This question and that relating to drink, which is alleged t> be causing delay in the delivery of munitions of war, absorb public interest.The King, through his secretary, has sent a letter to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, emphasizing the necessity of taking some action to stop excessive drinking, and has oftered, if it is considered advisable, personally to give up the use of alcoholic liquor and prohibit the use of it in the royal household.The government has not yet reached any decisipn in the matter.\u2019 In order to prevent further delay at the Liverpool docks, caused by the men refusing to work weck-ends, it has been decided to incorporate the dockers in the army voluntarily, in which case they will receive both army and their regular pay.So far as actual fighting is concerned, the official reports contain little news.The big effort in the west, which has been so long awaited, seems to be still far off, and the operations are confined to an occasional attack and counter-attack, while the airmen on both sides are kept busy watching the opposing force and dropping bombs where they might be expected to do the most damage.In the east the Russians are holding the Germans in north and central Poland and they are putting forth all their strength tu force their way through Uzsok and Lupkow Passes, with the result that some of the heaviest and most continuous fighting of the war is in progress in the Carpathians, both sides laying claim to success.The Russians who have already forced Dukla Pass, are slowly making their way down the southern slopes of the Carpathians into Hungary, and, according to British critics, must soon compel the Austrians and Germans defending the two other passes to fall back or be threatened with interference with their communications.Australia, which has already sent two contingents to fight for the Empire, has offered a third, which probably will be accepted.In all cases the dominions have sent more men than was originally expected.eee CF PRINZ EITEL FRIEDRICH FINISHES COALING TODAY COMMANDER THIERICHENS TAKES ON ENOUGH COAL TO REACH NEAREST GERMAN PORT\u2014 WASHINGTON KNOWS HIS INTENTIONS.e\u2014 fendants

Canadian jorces have rrossed the channel and are now upon the soil of that land where their forefathers in the days of old foughe many a bout and won the famous vice tories at Crecy , Poitiers and \\gin rourt.Vive hundred years have passed since the latter victory was gained.and now the British cross those sante dividing waters once again and land their troops upon the coasts of Francethis time not to tight their ancient foes, but, allied with them, to fore: bark a common enemy.; Though now amid the historie scenes of France the Canadians will not forget the spots in old England whieh they visited while at Salishury Plain.There is old Sarum, which, il it enuld speak.would tell of Druids, Britons and Normans.They will not forget the old cathedral that looks out actoss those vast plains where for four long months the Canadians lay encamped.| Ti< grandeur has Wied them with awe and they have ben estrangely iingresse hy the quaint oid places that nestle beneath its lofty spir\u20ac , : The site of Old Sarum is at present under a thorough excavation, unders taken by the Society of Antiquariee.11 contained the dwellings of the principal people, of the bishap snd ciergy, and also contained tae carhedral church, which is now in process of excavation.There are two gates to the outer hailey, ane on the east and a smaller one on the west.The former must have had a very imposing appearance, for above it was built the Church of the Holy Cross.The inner bailey constituted the Plante, Brother-Im-igw.Published OUT TODAY castle and the principal building nf this was the Great Tower, or Doajon.It is known [romestatistics that it contained royal apartments where the Norman Kings and probably the Plantaginets frequently resided In the hase of the Great Tower Was à enrrider, probably pecupied by the priests who attended the Chapel of St.Nicholas, which was situated in the touthwest angle of the towe-.At the sontheast of the inner bailey are the ruins of a large rough building, in which were found four ovens, thus leading to the supposition that it wae a bakery or a store.In this same arca was found a partly dug well.The little information that exists concerning the early history of Old Sarum is chiefly derived from pe rolls and liberate rolls of the times and from a few other documents.Among them eccur orders for repairs to certain builditxs, which are men tioned by name.also accounts for the supply of various articles.From appear.nces noticed during the excavation, constant alterations and rebuildings must have tak~a place formerly, but when the casti- ceased to exist cannot be very clearly shown.As early as 1276 King Edward 1 granted permission for the removal of stone for building acer- tain part of Salishury Cathedral, likewise King Edward JIf.aitowed stone to be taken from the old cathedral to repair the new.În 1338 royal permission was again granted for the semoval of stone On à very large scale.From this it may be inferred that from the dates Oid Sarum became practically a stone quarry to supply the new city.The excavations have afforded many interesting subjects, such 1s some fine specimens of glazed jugs, a piece of gold lace, dice, draughts.+ with their flat Tam-o\u2019-Shanter caps men, keys.knife blades, tools, ,and rings.One ring was a line, nearly pure gold episcopal ring with an em- eral setting.+ As was stated above, material was brought from the cathedral of ON Sarum toyaid in the construction au] repair of the present Salisbury Cathedral.The foundations of this noble pile were laid in 1220 by Bishop Richard Poore, The style is that of the First Pointed, or Ferly English, ani the ground plan i« that of a double cross.The building was not completed till 1258.The tower and spire were not added till the 144th century.The point of the spire is 400 feet above the ground.THE MOUNTAINEERS.France's Chesssurs-Alpins Are a Remarkable Corps or Fighters\u2014 The famous Chasseurs-Alping of France, the

THEY MAD A STOCK OF 350,000.AVAILABLE.London, March 31\u2014845 pan.\u2014 The official Eye Witness in a summary of \u2018minor, events occurring on the Brite ish front last week, sounds a note o?warning against placing importance on the capture of machine guns from the Germans, reports pf which so of ten appear in the official statements: \u201cIt must he remembered,\u201d he says, \u201cthat to the Germans the loss of one or several machine guns does not represent what at the beginning of the operations it would have meant to us, with our then vastly inferisr total and proportional number o: these weapons.\u201cIt is believed that before the wa: commenced they had available aita* gether a stock of 50,000 such guus apart from any that may have since been turned out by their arsenals.Their employment of them.therefore, i has in a certain sense been prodigoi and carried out with a disregard to loss, which is only cumprehensit:le when the large reserves of these w pon.in their possession is borne in mind.\u201cTo the Germans the machine gun represents merely a piece of machin: ery of immense killing and stopping power, which has cost a certain sum of money, but it is less vulnerable and less valuable in every way than a number of men and rifles of equivalent killing power.\u201cThe one principle guiding its employment, theretore, is that, provided the gunshas earned its keep or paid for its cost by the number of the ene- \u2018 my slaughtered, its loss ar destruction ! does not count.For them it has a : matter of the exchange of mechanic.| ism costing a few pounds, which cur be replaced at ounce, for a number =* | lives, which cannot be replaced withi:.a generation.This, of course, ap- | plies to the gun alone.and not to the | highly trained specialists who hand'c Lie, \u201cIt may be of some interest t~ point out to those who are not acquainted with the weapon, that a machine gun at the ordinary rate fires 500 rounds a minute.From the sector of the defences at Neuve Chapelle.where the Germans had fifteen riachine guns within the length of a front of 23¢ yards, 7.500 bullets could have been discharged in one minu.e.in addition to those from the rifles of the infantry manning the parapets.\u201cWhat effect this stream of lead would have against assaulting infau- try, either held hy obstacles or advancing over «lear ground at a slow pace, which is alone possible £, heavily weighed soidiers, is obvious.\u201d ALVARO OBREGON Mexico's Newest Leader Described by a Friend.From the New York Times, The tragedy of Mexicc has a new leading man, the seventh in a period of a little more than four years.He is Alvaro Obregon, the Sonora farmer, who has had a chief place in the news from Mexico for the past few weeks, the man who.by: his capture of the ancient City of Puebla and his subsequent dictatorship in the dis- aressed City of Mexico has compelled a world, weary Mexican revolutions to turn on him, and not Villa, the limelight of notoriety, Of the leading men uf the Mexican tragedy.Porfirio Diaz was the first.Then came Madero, then Pascual Orozen.then Victoriano Huerta, then Carranza, then Villa, and now comes Obregon, educated and apparently one of the ablest nf the scores of guerella fighters wha have appeared mm Mexican history in the past hali century.The Carranzistas admit that their hopes are in this man from Sonora.They call him the \u201cNapoleon of the West,\u201d the \u201cright hand of Carranza,\u201d and * the generil who can read as well as write.\u201d Obregon, like Villa, Orozen and Carranza, is a northern Mexican.He comes from the great state nf Sonora, which touches the American border west of El Paso.Sonara is a Yaqu Indian stronghold, and Obregon is proud of the fact that the blood of the Yaquis.among the best of Mexican fighters, is in his veins, However, he is not a full-blooded Yaqui, and the fairness of his complexion is due to a liberal mixture of
