The vessel sank five minutes after being torpedoed. The London P. & O. office today has received word that eleven more survivors of the Persia have been landed, including Lorn Montague. The company authorized no statement, but there is no reason to doubt that the liner carried a 4.7-inch gun astern for defensive purposes. The Japanese liner Kenkou aru, of 2,100 tons, has also been torpedoed. Her crew was saved. The British steamer Stoswald, of 3,810 tons, has also suffered Ihe same fate.

Charles Tisdale might be expected to visit Prince Rupert shortly, when he would look Into the subject of the shipbuilding possibilities in the city. It was decided' by the Council of the Board to invite Mr. Tisdale to pay a visit here. Accordingly, Mr. Man- son telegraphed the Minister of Works last evening. The conference held yesterday, was for ilie purpose of considering the shipbuilding proposals of (he Govern- •nieiit. President, <!. \v. Nlckerson, presided and asked Mr. Mansnn fni any information relative to the subject. Mr. Hanson explained that the matter was one that the Government was considering. The plans were not i fully laid, and he thought it might i be well for the Board to get any in formation possible together, for pre- sentation to the Government, looking to this city's interests in this respect, j After discussion, in an informal way, it was decided to place the mat-' ter in the hands of a committee, con-1 sisting of Messrs.

This is the proposition of the local city council, in a 'resolution introduced a few weeks ago by Aid. Casey, and which has since been put in exact form by the city solicitor, who added the per centages of taxes that it was proposed should be asked. The resolution as prepared by Mr. Peters and was presented last evening to the council read as follows: RESOLUTION. WHEREAS the cost of the great war has rendered enormous taxation necessary, the burden of which falls heavily upon citizens of Canada as a whole, who are also, in many ways, put to great loss; all of which it is believed has been and will be cheerfully born: BUT WHEREAS there are certain classes of industries in Canada which are making enormous profits on account of the war, this being particularly the case with regard to certain firms, who are engaged in the manufacturing and supplying of war munitions and supplies, who, it is alleged', are making exhorbitant profits from their contracts; and to certain products of our mines, such as ! copper, which have greatly increased I in value owing to the conditions created by the war: I AND WHEREAS it is proper that industries w'hich are so specially benefited by the war should bear a share of the Increased burden somewhat proportionate to the advantage reaped by such industries: AND WHEREAS Ihe Canadian people will have to pay their share, not only of the actual cost of the war whilst li lasts, but also, in pro- (Continued OH Page Three.!

Russian Frontier But Little Change Elsewhere The city will purchase twenty water meters at a cost of $320. These will be located in the places where the larger amounts of water are used, and will be used to test out the proposition. It was explained that at present the water department was falling short in the amount that should be raised from it. This would afford a check upon the matter and test the meter system out. Aid. Maitland said the water returns were not up to what was expected. If this were tried they would find out how it would work. Aid. Montgomery was opposed to the system being introduced by the council. This should be left to next year's council. This city had plenty of water. The Mayor said the hotels were the ones who were asking for this. They were objecting to paying the rates they were called upon to pay. The apartment houses also complained. Aid. Casey said that this explana- (Continued on Page Four.) London, Jan. 3.—Heavy lighting continues along the Russian front, from the Pripet Marshes to the| Buko- wina frontier, where the Russians are on tile offensive at several places. The Russians have captured important heights In Bukowina, taking 870 prisoners. The army is abundantly supplied with munitions and is fully equipped. The Russian campaign, through Bessarabia, extends along a front of three hundred miles from the Pripet Marshes to Rumania. The Russians have an army of a million and a halt. The movement is regarded as an ambitious strategic step to break the back-bone of the Germanic line across the Balkans. In the Balkans there has been no change in the situation. At Other Fronts.

School Notice To meet requirements necessitated by new pupils being received Into the Primer Classes, by certain promotions, particularly in the Junior Grade and consequent congestion in the Borden Street and the Seal Cove School, it has been found necessary to transfer the Junior Fourth Class from the Borden Street School, Div.

A careful consideration of conditions obtaining in the various schools, divisions and classes has led to the belief that the transfers, as announced, will attain the desired end with the minimum change or disturbance of classes for the current school year. According to figures on hand, the class-rooms in the city will be filled almost to their full seating capacity when school re-opens next Monday. TIMBER SALE X 547.

THOMAS TROTIER HAD OBJECTION THE ASSESSMENT FOR BORDEN STREET SEWER WILL BE LOOKED INTO so. In several cases this has lately been done. While there may be many of us in British Columbia who would prefer the Saskatchewan system as more moderate, in the plebiscite to be submitted to our people, there should be no confusing of the main issue. Details should be left for future consideration. No matter how great the personal sacrifice may be for the sake of the public good, in these days of stress ami' strain, hearing in mind that:— Salus populi suprema les—, let us ris" up throughout this Province in overwhelming numbers and "Banish the Bar.'' Yours faithfully, F. TT. DU VERNET. Bishop of Caledonia and Metropolitan of British Columbia. SYNOPSIS OF COAL REGULATIONS. MINING Coal mining rights of the Dominion in Manitoba.

IKMAN I | Eye Specialist Thomas Trotier raised an objection before the city council last night, to what he held was an unfair appropriation for the Borden Street sewer. The city solicitor explained that already one assessment had been paid. It would be a very dangerous move to allow anyone to come forward and open up a grievance, when It had been duly passed upon by the Court of Revision. Aid'. Montgomery was surprised at the argument raised by the city solicitor. If there had been a mistake made, it should be righted. He thought the assessor should look into it. The man should not have to pay more than he was entitled to. Aid. Beveridge seconded the motion to have this referred to the city assessor. '*i"n;- : »> . ^ * Aid. Dybhavn felt that the discussion was out of order, as they did not know what they were talking about. He moved to refer this to the city solicitor, the assessor and the engineer. -•• m |..» Aid. Maitland did not blame Mr. Trotier in the matter. If he were paying more than others, it should be adjusted. He moved that it go to the Board of Works for investigation. The matter was referred to the city assessor. o Barred lioiii Canada. Two more pro-German papers published in the United States have been banned from Canada.

Open Day and Night ft awwatyatitxittiati&tH To the Editor, Sir,—As many are inquiring about the Alberta Liquor Act, in view of the j coming Plebiscite in this Province, 1 should like to explain that this Act does not prohibit the sale of liquor for medicinal , mechanical, scientific and sacramental purposes, but allows Governmenl vendors, who receive a fixed salary, with no profits or commissions, In '-''II liquor for such pur- poset under definite restrictions, such as doctor's prescription! nor docs it prohibit an Individual householder in have In his own house, and for prl- vale use, a limited amount of liquor; but it ii'oife prohibit, within the Province, all sale of intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes, and so abolish"* the bar-room and does away with Ihe treating system. The ch'ef point of difference between the Alberta Liquor Act and the Saskatchewan Liquor Act is this: in Saskatchewan, to bring about a great reform more gradually, a certain number of dispensaries, under strict Government control, are allowed to sell liquor as a beverage in the larger centres, but the people of these municipalities are given the local option to close these Government dispensaries by vote.
