Information Sent as to Reserves   In
Case of War.
James Killas of this cfty has received, through the channels of
Greek papers, information that tends
to the belief that Greece will not
long remain out of the war.
The Information is that Greek
consuls have all received word that
ln case hostilities break out any subjects of Greece who wish to return
to join the colors shall be aided in
so doing. I£ they have not the money

Petrograd, Feb. 9.—The Russian
Duma met today. The session opened
with the singing of the Russian National Anthem.
Premier Goremykin said that now
a successful issue of the war was becoming more than ever apparent.
There was profound confidence
among the Russian people in our
final triumph. It was becoming an
absolute conviction that the army,
notwithstanding all its losses, was
stronger than ever and its exploits
were valuable.
The services rendered by the Allies would serve to bring ever nearer
the desired goal.

Held When The Men Of Capt.
Clayton's Command Marched To
Wharf—About Sixty-Five Present
Last evening an extra parade of
"A" Company, 6Sth Battalion, was
held when advantage was taken of
the excellent weather for a march
out. Assembling at the Exhibition
Building the company to the number
of about sixty-five under the command of Capt. W. B. Clayton, with
Lieut. L. Bullock-Webster and Lieut.
Van der Byl, marched through the
streets in uniform to the G.T.P.
wharf, where for about an hour they
were drilled. Later they marched up
town again and were dismissed.
The men of the command made a
magnificent showing. They have
made wonderful progress in their
drill and are a credit to the officers
and to the city.
The company was headed by the
Scottish bagpipes, which provided inspiring marching airs. In addition to
this the Cadets turned out in force
and marched at the head of them
from the building to the wharf.
Gen. Supt. Mehan of the G. T. P.
showed his appreciation of the spirit
shown by the local regiment by clearing the wharf and having It fully
lighted  up  for the company.

Blew Up A Mine Gallery
Paris, Feb. 9.—An offlcialstatenient says there is nothing ot
material importance to report. During the afternoon of February
8 we blew up in front of Fay. southeast of Peronne, a mine gallery in which the enemy's soldiers were at work.

CITY SOLICITOR RELIEVES THAT
CITY HAS NO RIGHT TO

Cltitends Would Be Very
Nominal.

ON NEW RAILWAY
IT IS REPORTED THAT A START

Tiie Pacific, Peace River   and   Athabasca Railway  to
Commence.
The claim made by the Metlakatla
Indians for $500 a year for damage
done to the reserve at Shawatlans by
reason   of  the   city's  waterworks  is
held  by  the city sclicitor  to   be   a
ridiculous one. He recommends that
it be not allowed. He contends that
m
tlie amount that should be paid   if
any sum were so allowed would be a
very small one. «■
The solicitor states that the blasting of the falls has improved the
fishing grounds at the lake. This
contention, he says, is borne out by
the Fishery Department. There
should be nothing allowed on that
count therefore.
On the point of damage by the
construction of the road from the inlet to the lake, Mr.- Peters contended
that it was doubtful if this worked
any damage. At most it could only
be reckoned at the actual value of
the land occupied, which should not
be put higher than $5 an acre.
The report of the city solicitor
will be acted upon and the claim put
forward  will  be denied.

Arrangements have been made by
Mr. Charles F. Law, of Vancouver,
Canadian representative for Mr. D.
A. Thomas, the Welsh coal magnate
and one of the chief promoters of
the scheme for building the Pacific
Peace River & Athabasca Railway
and allied concerns, for a start on
the first stage of the extensive transportation and development projects
planned for the northern portions of
British Columbia, says report. Mr.
Law, who returned from Europe re
cently, stated that while no flotations
were being made on the London
markets, financial arrangements have
been made for'building one of the
tramways planned in connection with
the main navigation scheme, and for
placing one of the proposed steamers1
on the Peace River this year. The
promoters of the railway and inter-
lated projects plan to continue the
survey work started last year and to
have the route, located this season.
The first of the tramways is to be
built at Vermillion Chutes on the
Upper Peace River, thus affording
navigation facilities on that waterway to connect with the lower waters
of the Peace River, the Athabasca
River, the Slave rivers and the Slave
lakes. The steSmer will be built at
Peace River Crossing and will ply up
to Vermillion Chutes, 660 miles distant.
Mr. Law staled' thai the Pacific,

Company had filed an application at
Ottawa for a change of ocean terminal and a partial change of route.

LENDING  SIDNEY".
Thin the I'nited States is welcoming Canada's efforts to obtain funds
from them is indicated by the following comments from the New York
Commercial:
"We are lending money to Canada
on good security at fair rates of interest and are thus strengthening the
bonds of common interest that have
existed for a century. Political union
is not necessary to make tbe sentiment of North America above the
RIo Grande one ln spirit.
"Canada has been our best customer for several years. We have sold
more to the United Kingdom, and
most of the time to Germany, but we
have made more money out ot Canada because our exports across our
northern boundary line consisted so
largely of finished goods. We are
sure of this trade, because we have
gained ground year after year, in
spite of preferential duties and special treaty rights enjoyed by other
parts of the British Empire and
France. Every manufacturer and
wholesaler knows how to sell goods
in Canada as well as in the United
States. Conditions, trade customs and
banking facilities are all In our favor
"When a big'wholesale house finds
that one of its best and most reliable customers needs help the
house gives it if possible. That,!
should be our position towards Canada. It' the Dominion needs money
to keep going, and we have plenty to
lend, that is a good place to put it.
We can prove to people with long
memories that we are something
more than fair-weather friends."
HANDS  ACROSS* "THE    SEA.
Lord Fisher was asked by the
United Press of America to send a
Christmas message to the United
States. And in his short reply he
begged the whole 300,000,000 of Americans to read William Watson's
poem, "To America":
"Art  thou   her  child,   born    In   the
proud midday
Of her large soul's   abundance   and
excess:
Her    daughter    and    her    mightiest
heri tress,
Dowered  with   her thoughts,  and lit
on her great way
By her great lamps that shine   and
fail not?
Yes.
And   at    this    thunderous   hour   of
struggle and stress,
Hither  across  the  ocean   wilderness
What  word    comes    frozen   on   the
frozen   spray?
Neutrality;   The tiger from his deu
Springs at thy mother's throat,   and
canst  thou  now
Watch with a stranger's gaze? So be
it then!
•■"■'■,-  ■'• v   ■•V-.<:'#-.r»-*.
Thy loss   is, more   than   hers;    for
bruised and torn,
She shall yet live without thine aid,
and  thou
Without    the    crown     divine    thou
might'st have worn."
And by the hand of John Ernest
Warren, librarian of the Dramatists'
Club, New York, there comes this
noble answer:
"Thy noble scorn, thy sad Cassandra
sigh
I'So be it, then'), have struck us
to the  heart,
And flung the wide gates   of   our
souls apart
To let our eagles, screaming, to thee
fly
Upon tho day that thou shall to them
cry:
'Come!  help thy Mother, ere   barbaric art
Floods with blood our temples and
each mart,
And all our babes and virgins crucify!'
No traitor to Humanity can  make
Us traitors to Humanity and thee.
O  Mother   England!    cradle   of
our race!
God will not permit us to forsake
The great souls warring   for   our
liberty.
And  then  to  hope, one day,   to
see His face!"
Trust to the ringing note of   the
poet, the clear pipe of song,   before
the  greedy  maw  of commerce.

WAR HORSES SHOW

Interesting Facts About an   Import,

How are the war horses coming
through the terrible conflict? This
question presents itself when reading of the great battles, the cavalry
encounters or the artillery duels.
There has undoubtedly been a terrible waste, and the four corners of
the earth are being scoured for lit
animals. But the British gunners
and cavalry men are not unmindful
of tlieir best friends and, ambitious

too near its neighbor, the horse takes
the matter into his own hands with
an Olympian disregard of bit or
whip. They will not disobey the regulations for any one.
Beach Thomas writes also of the
system of base and clearing hospitals for the war horses, of the wonderful surgery, some of the old
stagers almost as-capable of telling
the 'vets' where to probe as of instructing young gunners in the geometries of gun emplacement, of how
wounded horses quickly recover with
their morale as (;ood, of how they
endure shell lire scornfully, but do
not stand pain well, as when   struck
by a bullet or shrapnel or shell, the
tlon  Mail,  to  bring  a  favorite  horsol ,   . _,,    .,       ,  . ,
»I unseen Injury fills the stricken animal with nameless terror, and his
restraint is apt to vanish in sheer
panic.   But the    hulk  of  the  horses
or two safe through the war and
home again, have been tending them
carefully, aud now after many
months of hard campaigning have
many as lit as when they started the
campaign and wonderfully more
Intelligent. These old horses, he says,
are as valuable as experienced soldiers. They have nothing to learn
about war, and can teach any new
driver a good deal.
Here is an example that he gives:
»
Many   of  these  animals   know    with
mathematical exactness the proper,
interval of one gun from another.
To swing the gun round at the due
distance is now ingrained as an instinct, and performed with regularity of a ploughing horse when he
turns  at  the  headland  of  the    field.

j terrors of the retreat and covered

I have learned war not less Intelligently than their masters.

given tha proper incentives market
leaders would come to the front. The
last few weeks have, I think, confirmed the claim. The market has
hud u rise since it reopened, as everybody knows. Has it lacked leadership? Neither as to men nor stocks.
The old manipulative tactics of former times have been absent. Leaders
have not. The rise in Reading, Bethlehem, American Can, Amalgamated
! Copper, not to mention other stocks
which have scored notable gains
shows that the Important initiative
needed to put prices up was only
waiting.
"I believe there is no foundation
for talk of a big combine at work
on the bull side. There has been no
necessity for it. The market reopened on a thoroughly liquidated position. Transformation in credit conditions and return of normality in
finance and commerce paved the way
for marked' improvement. Bernard
M. Baruch, Thomas F. Ryan, the
First National Bank interests,
Charles M. Schwab and his friends
bought and advanced tlieir favorite
stocks.
"That in brief is the story of the
movement of the past few weeks.
And the significant thing is that this
initiative has induced a following
which similar efforts prior to the
breaking out of the European war utterly failed to attract. The public is
disposed to buy. It realizes, no doubt,
that as a result of stock exchange reforms it is getting a square deal. I
said recently and repeat now that
million-share days will return. From
the present outlook, they will make
brokers happy, and Stock Exchange
seats considerably dearer, before
summer."
