EMPEROR FRANZ JOSEF OF AUSTRIA   WHOSE  ARMIES  ARE  NOW
ATTACKING SERBIA.
The North To Have
A Regiment Of Its
Own For The Front
The announcement is made that
the north is to have a regiment of
its own for overseas service. The
headquarters for the recruiting will
be Prince Rupert, and the force will
be recruted by Lieut.-Col. Warden,
who has just recently returned from
the front, where he was wounded in
service while holding the rank of
captain.
The announcement of this is contained in a press despatch from Ottawa, and is evidently correct, as a
movement along that line has for
sometime been on foot, backed up
by H. S. Clements, M. P., and others.
The intention is to have the force
representative of Northern B. C. and
the Yukon. Already many hundreds
of recruits have gone from the northern part to serve with different regiments. It has been felt that a distinctively northern battalion »hould
go out.
Efforts are being made also to have
the training of the regiment carried
out here during the winter months.
Unless it can be shown that there
are special reasons why such should
not be the case this will he pressed
still stronger upon tlie authorities.
WIRE TROUBLE
Owing to tlie storm last night *
there was trouble with the tele- *
graph lines and no press de- *
spatehes were received. *
Tlie announcement has been made
that the steamer Minnesota, soon to
sail for British ports from Seattle,
1b to be sold. The reasons given for
this move at the present time is that
which is prompting other American
bottoms to seek new registers and
quit the Pacific routes.
It has now been definitely announced that the vessels of the Pacific
Mall Steamship line have been sold
to the Atlantic Transport Company.
The ships will complete their present
voyages, and each vessel when she
arrives at San Francisco will be turned over to the Atlantic Company.
This means that the Far East will
lose the services of the steamers
Korea, Siberia, China, Manchuria,
and Mongolia, and that the company's flag will no longer be seen
in Chinese waters.
This decision is the outcome of
the passage of the new Seaman's
Act by the United States Congress,
which goes Into operation in November of this year. The following information in respect to the company
and their attitude with regard to the
present situation has been obtained
from a recent number of the American Exporter:
When the Seaman's Act becomes
operative, according to the company's
officials, it will be useless to try to
compete any longer with Japanese
Government -subsidized steamship
companies operating on the Pacific.
The company has based its conclus-

SERBIA  APPEALS
FOR SPEEDY AID
FROM   BRITAIN'
London, Oct. 27<—The Serbian
Premier, M. Pachite, has appealed to
Britain  for speedy aid.
The Marquis of Lansdowne, in a
speech delivered in the House of
Lords, .staled thai it is highly Improbable thai the Serbian army can
long withstand the pressure of the
Austro-Germans in tlie north of Serbia, with a "stab in the back" from
Bulgaria in tlie south.

ions on the reports of experts. These
reports, calculating the increased cost
to the Pacific Mail of manning their
trans-Pacific and coastwise steamers
so as to comply with the Seaman's
Act, show that it would be disastrous
to continue operations.
The Pacific Mail Steamship Company is a $2,000,000 corporation,
and control of the stock lies with the
Southern Pacific Railway, which has
shaped the steamship company's
policies. Whilst the volume of business has been increasing within the
last decade, the company had considerable deficits in four years out
of the last six. The last dividend
was paid in 1899, when 3 per cent,
was declared- It had been hoped
that the completion of the Panama
Canal would improve conditions, but
the exclusion of the Southern Pacific from the canal by the Panama
Canal Act wiped out that possibility.
The steamship company operates
thirteen ships of steel and iron. Five
of these ships are used in the trans-
Pacific trade, touching Philippine and
continental ports. The others are
used in the coast trade, touching
South and Central American ports.
The thirteen ships have a book value
of $11,298,000 gold.
All the ships operating in thq
trans-Pacific trade are officered by
citizens of the respective countries
whose flags they fly. The crews, however, consist for the greater part of

The effects of the rough weather
0n the fishing banks during the
month now nearlng a close, is shown
in the record of the industry at this
port for the thirty days ending yesterday.
These figures show that 1,358,700
pound? of halibut were brought here.
Taking 5 cents as an average price
for this fish, the value for the month
was $67,93.". This is a falling off as
compared with the month proceeding, but nothing elue could be expected, in view of the broken weatli-l
er for fishing. For the past few,
weeks on the coast there has been j
a very decided check in the industry.
Then the month just closed has i
seen the wiping out of the salmon
business to a very large extent. Only I
197,100 pounds of salmon was taken j
during the month. All of this was'
used either fresh or frozen. The can-,
ning industry was completely closed ,
down  during the month.
There     was     some     cod     passed
through the port during the month.'
Of this most was used fresh. Of Ihe
23.H0O   pounds,   21 ,ri00   was   frozen'
for   shipment,   while   1,000   pounds
went oat green salted,
In the crab business the trade lias
been allowed to fall Into disuse lo

of the local crab works on the Government wharf. Only l,t)00 pounds of

The total catch ni fish for October
was 1,580,300 pounds, valued at

(Continued from page one)
Chinese and East Indians. Two
Japanese lines touching American
ports make exception to these rules
by using only Japanese sailors. Another Japanese line uses Japanese
and Chinese.
According to tlie experts employed
by the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, the cost of its service, were it
to comply With the provisions of the
new Act, would include an additional
expenditure of $508,271 a year for
wages and $103,771 a year for feeding crews. This would be a total of
$802,042.
"It stands to reason that this added expense could not be borne," said
an official of the steamship company
recently. "Prior to 1913 we had an
annual deficit for a number of years.
In Jn18 the surplus was $20,000, and
in 1914 it was $300,000. Tt is apparent that our company cannot meet
the competition of the Japanese
lines."
The annual report, which gives
tlie earnings for the year ending
April 30, states that compared with
the operations of the preceding year,
operating revenues increased $177,-
432.19, operating expenses other
than depreciation decreased $204,85,
depreciation decreased $12,0.19.79,
and taxes decreased $1,029.74, making an Increase in water line operating income of $191,387.67, There
was a decrease in the net revenue
from auxiliary operations of $3,408-
75, leaving an increase in the total
operating income of $187,978.82, or
23.13 tier cent. The increase In
operating income is entirely attributable to the operations of tlie trans-
Pacific line, which with Hie same
number of voyages as last year,
shows an increase of $457,497.89,
whereas the operations of the Panama line show a decrease in revenue
of $280.07l.7ii.
The increase in operating revenue
of the trans-Pacific line, the report
states, is due to conditions brought
about by the European war. Many!
of ihe ships nf the belligerents have
bei ii 'aken el-: of the trans-Paclflc
service, anil of the Suez sel'vlci for
war purposes. As a resull of this
the Pai Iflc Mail was enabled to obtain a large pro] nrtlon of the traffic.

therefore, specially featured. Heavy
Douglas Fir limbers were also shown,
and the fact was emphasized that
Douglas Fir is not only equal, but is
superior to long-leaf pine, its only
competitor as a structural material,
because it gives somewhat greater
strength combined with 20 per cent.
less weight, and is much freer from
sap. This latter point Is Important
on account of the tendency of sappy
southern pine to dry rot. Proof of
the durability of British Columbia
red cedar poles were shown by sections of poles still sound which have
been in use near Vancouver for over
a quarter of a century, in fact, ever
since the completion of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The nine principal grades of British Columbia
shingles were shown in the form of
sections of roofs.
The effectiveness of the exhibit
was beyond question, and drew attention once more to the need of
continuous missionary work in the
east on behalf of the forest products
of British Columbia. A canvas of
the leading buyers, as well as the
remarks made by the thousands of
people who Inspected the display, revealed a general surprise at the
obvious superiority of Douglas Fir
over southern pine in beauty of appearance. Paint manufacturers were
impressed with the remarkable way
in which this wood sets off the various stains and varnishes, and were
anxious to obtain fir samples for
displaying their products. The showing of British Columbia doors and of
the thicker varieties of shingles was
also very effective.

Each application must be separate
and must be signed by the applicant.
Only  one  sample  of  grain   and   one |
of potatoes can be sent to each farm, j
If both samples are asked for in the j
same  letter only  one  will  be  sent.
Applications on any kind of printed
form cannot be accepted.
The destruction by lire of the
cereal building at Ottawa, which con.
taincd grain-cleaning machinery and
a large stock of seed grain for distribution, may make it necessary to
curtail the distribution lo a certain
extent. We shall fill as many as
possible of the applications which
conform to tlie rules; but requests
received af[er the end of December
will probably be too late. Samples
cannot be sent in response to applications (no matter when received)
which fail to state clearly the needs
of the applicant, his experiences in
crop-raising, and the character of the
soil on which he intends to sow the
seed.
All applications for grain (and applications from the provinces of Ontario and Quebec for potatoes) should
be addressed to the Dominion Cereal-
ist, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa. Such applications require no
postage. If otherwise addressed, delay and disappointment may occur.
Applications for potatoes from
farmers in any other province should
be addresed (postage prepaid) to tlie

HOW  ARMENIANS.

iron by a village blacksmith, at the
order of the Turks, how men of To-
kat, were tied together in groups of
four and taken out a hundred at a
time to the marshy districts for massacre, and how tlie declaration of
martial law at Zile included the confiscation of all Armenian property.
The accounts describe how women
were lied to the tails of ox carts and
exposed to hunger and rough weather until they accepted conversion to
Islam or death, how mothers were
bayonuetted before the eyes of their
children. How Armenian girls were
distributed as chattels among civil
and military officials.
The prisoner says that, as a soldier, he was compelled to assist in
many massacres, being on one occasion, a member of a party of forty
soldiers which superintended the
death of 800 Armenians. His account
closes as follows:
"There is reason to believe that
German advisers of the Turks have
urged upon them the undeslrability
of allowing a large alien and presumably unfriendly population to inhabit ports which lie open to Russian attack,"
