famous frigate actions in the history of the Navy.
The "Canada" had an interesting
history. She practically decided the
Rodney's great battle in
April, 17>2, by dismasting the
French flagship Ville de Paris. The
vessel, which was commanded by the
lion. William Cornwallls, was a two-
decker of .74 guns. When the French

The city of Regina has accepted
the Bank of Montreal's offer to ne
gotiate treasury bonds to the extent
of $1,750,000, at a very favorable
price. The offer of the bank was
made to the city council on the first
day of the year but could not be accepted until the new council had
organized. The finance committee
has now gone into the matter thoroughly and has recommended the
acceptance of the offer.
WARSHIP CANADA
FIFTB[OF NAME

DOMINION'S   NAME.
First One of This Name Was Launch.
ed in Same Year as Nelson's
Victory.
Word came some time ago that
one of the new battleships to be
added to the navy in 1915 is to be
called "Canada," In recognition of
the'way in which the Dominion has
come to tlie help of the Empire,
There are to be fifteen new ships
added during the year.
According to the First Lord of the
Admiralty they are of the greatest
power of any vessels ever constructed
in naval history. He goes on to say
that it is no exaggeration that we
could afford to lose a super-Dreadnought every month for twelve
months without any loss occurring
to the enemy, and yet he in approximately as good a position of superior.
ity as we were at the declaration of
war.
Frigate Was Named .Montreal.
The new battleship "Canada" will
be the fifth ship In the British Navy
to hear that name. The first "Canada" was launched In tlie same year
as  the  fatuous old  Victory,  in   1705,
Jde Paris's broadside, he pounded the
French ship with every gun the
"Canada" could bring to bear, cutting away spars and' rigging and
holding the great vessel back until
other British ships came up to finish
tlie task. Admiral de Grasse, after
his surrender, said that he owed his
defeat to "that little red-sided ship,"
meaning the "Canada," which was
painted—for some reason or other—
with red stripes instead of yellow
like the other ships.
King on Fourth  "Canada/'
Two other "Canadas" were added j
successively to the Navy after the
first had been retired, but of them
there is no story to be told. The
fourth "Canada," one of the early
armored cruisers, built in 1880, was
the ship on board which King
George, when a midshipman, visited
the West Indies. The ship was
broken up In 1895.
After the Boer war, in which Canadian troops rendered great assistance, the "Dominion," which was
launched in 1902, was so named in
memory of their services. Also it
must be remembered that two of
our latest destroyers, the Laforey
and the Hallowell, are named after
two of Nelson's famous captains, vvlio
were Canadians, Sir Francis Laforey
and Admiral Hallowell. Laforey
commanded a ship at the Battle of
the Nile. He was promoted to be an
admiral, and two years before he
died an old lady named Carew, who
had admired his career, left him a
large fortune, and he took the name
of Hallowell-Carew. Speaking of this
legacy, Hallowell is reported to have
said: "If only she had done it fifty
years ago, what a time I should have
had!"
that whether the war terminates or
not drilling would be resumed by-
March 1, as the necessary financial
arrangements had been made. Up
to the date drilling operations were
stopped in September two wells had
been drilled to depths of 750 and
250   feet,  respectively,

VAN     Di IXKX,    A     HOLLANDE1
ARRESTED CHARGED WITH
CRLME,
He Has Been Committed for Trial at
the Next Assize
Court.
A grewsoine tragedy was brought
to light when the mutilated body of
Job Vermeulin, a Hollander, was
found in a creek about fifty yards
from his cabin, near Trout Lake,
on Tuesday last, by Chief of Police
Dunwoody and two constables of
Fort George, says the Tribune of
that place.
Friday Fritz von Duinen, also
a Hollander, and who occupied the
cabin with Vermeulin, was committed for trial by .Magistrate Heme ou
the charge of murdering his former
comrade.
Information leading to the discovery of the remains and the arrest
of accused was brought to Fort
George by Paul .Miicke on .Monday
last. The events leading up to the
arrest are as follows:
On Monday afternoon Paul Miicke,
a pre-emptor living about nine miles
out on the Chief Lake road, reported
to Chief Dunwoody that apparentl
sometmn; :'nuuudl bad happened at
the cabin occupied by two Hollanders, about three miles nortli of his
cabin. Acting upon this information
Van Duinen  was found and arrested
c bin the following day. The
party followed the trail of blood a
illtle farther, bul owing to the fact
that snow had fallen they did not
%\attempt to go very far. They decided
that something was wrong and
Miicke deckled to go to town and
report to the police.
On Tuesday Chief Dunwoody and
two constables went out to investigate. Picking up the several men,
tbe entire party went to Hartford's
cabin.
In his statement the-night before
Van Duinen bad told the police that
the body of his former comrade
would be found at the end or the
sleigh trail leading from the cabin
so that it was only a moment's work
to locate it, the corpse being found
only a few feet beyond where the
searchers  had  been   the  day  before.
Apparently the body had been
dumped hurriedly into the frozen
creek, as it was all doubled up, face
downward in the snow, frozen solid.
That the body had been carried out
almost at once after the killing was
evident from three separate pools of
frozen blood under the body, and
the odd circumstance that the body
was in a little cave of snow, the
warmth of it having melted the
snow around.
At the cabin a bullet mark' was
discovered on the edge of the table
near the wall. This mark showed
unmistakably that the bullet had
travelled In a downward direction
ancl the bullet was found embedded
in a log of the wall. It was a 38-55
calibre, and the riflo from which it
was evidently fired was In the cabin
without the empty shell in it, however.
The body was brought down to
in _ the Scandia House in Princejthe Chief Lake road, where the party
George   Monday  night,  and    accused I remained  until   the  next   day,  Wed-

made  a  statement  to  having   killed
bis partner accidentally.' (
On Saturday of last week Miicke
■decided to take a dog belonging to
him up to tbe deceased and his partner to be taken care of. On reaching the cabin, which belongs io
"Kicking Horse Bill" Hartford, he
found no one around. Stepping into'
the cabin he found everything in
wild confusion, dirty dishes on the
table, a pot of frozen food on the
stove, the door of which was open;
the bunks a tangle of twisted blankets; everything, in short, out of
place. On the floor by the table he
noticed splashes of blood, the trail
leading toward the door. Miicke.
stepped outside and followed the
trail of blood into the woods, lie
concluded that the two men had shot
some game and had dragged it to
the cabin on a sled which he found
by the hfiuse, tracks of which para-
lelled (he blood marks through the
snow. Miicke followed the trail a
shorl distance, and concluding that
the "game" had been- brought in
some distance he did not follow further. Upon returning to the bouse
he found a small black clog lying
dead near tbe door of tbe cabin.
Tbe clog bad been shot. This awakened his suspicions. He left the
cabin and went about (wo miles
north to enquire of some Russians
if they knew anything about Hie two
Hollanders.'
One of the Russians slated that
be had visited the cabin of the two
men on Thursdaj and found things
substantially as Miicke had found
.oin. He told Miicke thai the ini n
had evidently aliol their dog, as he
had seen a lot of blood. Miicke and

nesday,  reaching  Fort    George    the
same day.
The coroner's inquest showed that
food similar to that found on the
stove in the cabin wasjn the mouth
and stomach. The body appeared to
be well nourished, and the brain normal. There were several slight
bruises about the face ancl a deep cut
under one eye. The fact that this
cut had not. bled leads to belief that
these injuries were caused by the
hurried disposal of the still warm
corpse. The bullet wound which resulted, in death had entered the dead
man's back about two inches below
and to the left of the right armpit,
coming out over the left, breast, after
penetrating both lungs and the heart
Death was apparently instantaneous
From the evidence brought, out the
man was apparently shot at from
tbe bunk across the room while eating his meal.
Van Duinen must have left the
place almost at once, as he stopped
at a madhouse on the Chief Lake
road Wednesday night, changed all
his clothes for others which he had
left there some time previous and
came to town the next day. where
he  was  arrested.
At the preliminary trial held yesterday Van Duinen broke down when
Assistant Chief Mcduffie gave his
evidence, bul refused to say anything in bis defence other than what
he bad already said, namely, that he
was Innocenl of intentional wrongdoing.
The Ottawa Evening Citizen in a |
somewhat 'ldngtby article dealing
with the Increase in tbe price of
flour says that the Government
should enquire into the matter. The
Citizen  says:
"Flour has gone up, so the millers say, because wheat has gone
likewise, but for what reason wheat
has soared from 0 7 7-8 cents on
August 1 to $1.32 3-4 on Saturday
is, as one of the best known students of economy in Canada says, a
matter the Government should investigate. It is time, he says, that
the Government stepped ln and controlled the price of wheat. If this is
not clone the speculators and all those
allied with them will continue to
take advantage of the conditions
caused by the war, irrespective of
the suffering the high prices will j
cause to poor people.
"The millers say the reason flour *Wt*MWWMXttW^^
has risen to its present price—Incidentally the highest since the Franco-
Prussian war in 1870—is owing to
the great reduction in the reserve
supply of wheat ancl flour in Canada
and the United States, the great demand for these products in Europe,
the comparatively poor crop in the
Argentine last season, and—here is
the joker—the high freight rates ancl
insurance risks on cargoes to Great
Britain.
"If the freight rates and insurance risks to Britain are higher
now than before the war—which is
true—these factors should cause
wheat to be cheaper In Canada. It is
obvious that anything which interferes with the export of wheat and
flour from this country has the effect of increasing the home supply
and lowering the home price. This
excuse of the millers seems to be a
bad one.
"It is an open secret that several
millers in Canada made abnormal
profits by buying wheat from farmers who were hard pushed for money
in 1913, and perhaps they are playing the same game just now. The
Government could find out."

although it cannot with wisdom be
