AUDACIOUS IS NOW REPAIRED AGAIN Damage Done to Her by Striking a -Mine Has Been Righted. London, Feb. ill. II appears that the rumors last fall of damages done H. M. S. Audacious were correct; nt least Insofar as her being hit by a mine. That she has aol been sunk is now assured by unofficial reports that tell of her being expected to join the rojal navy next week, after repairs at lho Ha'latid-Wolff works In Belfast. What apparently happened on October 27 was that she struck a mine, which blew a hole through her. The hole was plugged, however, wit collision mats, and she was kept, afloat until she was towed into the drydock.

Petrograd, Feb. 16.—On the front from the Niemen to the Vistula some encounters took place on February 13, On the loft bank of the Vistula the customary cannonading occurred. In the Carpathians we repulsed a stubborn attack by the Austrians, and made some progress on the left bank of the upper San, capturing more than a thousand prisoners, five machine guns and cannon. The German attack on the heights of Mytokoziourka were repulsed, and they suffered heavy losses. FURNISHED ROUSE FOR RENT. A pretty little furnished house on the Hill for ront.

The chief source and the mainstay of our revenue is the tariff and it is to this we must look principally for relief of our present financial condition. Taxation Imposed by increases in the customs duties bears on all classes because all are consumers and in paying additional taxation each member of the community will feel that he is to that extent contributing to the cost of the war and the defence of his country. As an auxiliary means of rais- i ing revenue we shall resort to certain special taxes, the burden of which will fall more particularly upon those members of the community who are best able to sustain it. To supplement our revenues to the minimum amount regarded by the government as necessary I shall later introduce to the House a bill entitled The War Revenue Act of 11115. Supplementary Taxes, lis provisions "ill cover a levy of special and general taxation as follows: Upon all banks to which Ihe Bank Act applies a yearly sum equal In one per cent, upon the note circulation to be computed and paid quarterly. From this taxtion we shall realize approximately one million dollars. Upon every trust and loan company Incorporated under any legislative authority and carrying on business in Canada, a yearly sum equal to one per cent, of its gross income derived in Canada payable quarterly. Upon every insurance corporation, society, association, firm or partnership, carrying on the business of insurance, other than life, fraternal benefit and marine insurance, a sum of one per cent, upon all net premiums received by it in Canada. Payments to be made quarterly. The provisions of the bill will apply to business of the respective banks, trust and loan and insurance companies transacted after January 1, 1915, and the first receipts therefrom will roach consolidated revenue fund about May 1. Tuxes on Cables. In addition the following taxa- Iion will be provided for: Upon every cable and telegraph company using telegraphic cables or wires within tlie Jurisdiction of Canada a sum equal to one cent upon each despatch or message originating in Canada for which a charge of fifteen cents or more is imposed Returns to be made quarterly.

The News, believing that an election may be in sight, is wracking Us brain to find fault with the Conservative party, which the Liberals hope to hoodwink the electorate Into defeating. Its latest trouble is thai H. S. Clements has not accomplished what he sought in connection with making this port a belter centre for the halibut trade than it has been under existing conditions. The News now comes forward with the statement thai Mr. Clements is steadily fighting for something in the fishing line that he stood for and fought for at Ottawa long before the News took any interest in the subject. Those Who know Mr. Clements know that he will slay with his fight to the last. He has strong hopes of winning his points, and the chronic harpings of the News will in nowise influence either the course of Mr. Clements or the actions of the Government. As an evidence that Mr. Clements is able to get from the Department what is of benefit to tho fishing industry we have fishermen getting good catches of herring where It was formerly prohibited grounds. In the requests which the Member is making iu Ihe interests of the halibut business there are international points involved which the Government is slow lo act upon. The Government realizes the force of the argumenl put up by Mr. Clements and Ii le possible that the difficulties will be overcome.

Within a few feet in front of the German trenches were two big wheat stacks. Four men volunteered to burn them—two Russians, one French, one Englishman. About 2 a.m. orders passed along our line for none to fire till ordered. Looking through the loophole I saw tlie blaze, and knowing nothing of the raid I woke the sergeant and reported it How that fire grew! It seemed that the four, each with a bottle of paraffin, had successfully fired two stacks. What a sight! The whole landscape illuminated as by day, and it was 30 hours before tlie last embers died out, and the four got back unhurt through a tornado of bullets. The icaptain shook hands with each. "I shall not forget our return in silence through the long trenches nor the dawn, as we got well away, red sky, slight snow on the ground, all trees a lacework of frost, and our dark column in the highroad, now in column of four, strangely altered, nearly every man wearing a wool helmet or 'passe montagne,' as they call them, and multi-colored mufflers, some with ruffs over their shoulders and knapsacks, marching In loose order, all dead fatigued, and looking back in tlie columns on that white ground how like it seemed tc pictures of the retreat from Moscow, for strange carts and tumbrils completed the picture.

The tariff upon the articles exempted from the increased duties will remain as at present. So far as concerns the duty upon raw materials, It is to be pointed out that in WAR TAXFS lft!P0SFDia""1(h""c' wlth reBulatlons n,aiie I under the provisions of the Customs Act, manufacturers are entitled to a drawback of 99 per cent, upon all duties paid upon imported materials used, wrought Into or attached io articles manufactured In Canada and exported therefrom, Additions to Free List. In addition to making the increases mentioned for-ihc purpose of increasing revenue wo propose to alter the existing tariff by adding Bquid and nicotine sulphate lo the free list. Squid is used as bail by the fishermen, while nicotine sulphate is a spraying material used by fruit growers for destroying insect pests. These two items have for some time been noted for change. The revenue obtained from tlie proposed tariff changes will be separately shown in the trade and navigation returns of the Department of Customs. By this we shall know the precise amount collected through the customs under the provisions of tiie war revenue. Upon the basis of importations for the current year and having regard to conditions which I have described as likely to prevail during the coining year, we expect to realize from our proposed customs tariff legislation from twenty to twenty-live million dollars. These, Mr. Speaker, are the proposals of the government having as their object the raising of additional revenue rendered necessary by the war and our participation therein as a belligerent. We are not unmindful that they will entail a considerable financial burden upon the community. We believe, however, that to adopt measures less comprehensive In their scope would be but to temporize the situation with which it is our duly to adequately cope. That the people will cheerfully respond to the demands made upon tlieir patriotism goes without saying. At tho outbreak of war it would have been premature to have brought forward measures which today have been long foreseen by public opinion to be necessary and indeed inevitable, it would also have boon most inopportune and inexpedient by reason of tlie profound dislocation or disorganization of business caused by the war .and Ihe shock to financial stability which the Dominion was so suddenly called uimn to withstand. Relieve Unemployment. We believe tlie tariff increases which we propose will be not only effectual in producing greater revenue, but will be strongly efficacious In stimulating Canadian industry and agriculture and in relieving unemployment. would involve a heavy expense as compared with Ihe amount which would be realized. Taking the income tax of the United States as a basis, it would appear that Canada could hardly expect to derive from a similar tax a sum in excess of two million dollars from which wc would have to deduct the heavy expenses connected with its administration. My chic! objection, however, to an income tax is the fact that the several provinces arc also likely io be obliged lo resort to measures for raising additional revenue, and 1 am of the view that the Dominion should not enter upon the domain to which they are confined to a greater degree than is necessary in the national interest. There is another feature of income tax which makes it unsatisfactory for the purpose of Dominion finance. 1 refer to the length of period whicli must elapse before it becomes productive.

BOX 515 TELEPHONE 313 source. With us this is not thc case. Increase iii Customs Duties. As our main revenue measures we propose with certain exceptions a general horizontal increase in tlie customs duties upon all goods and commodities imported into or taken out of bonded warehouses in Canada. The list includes all articles hitherto dutiable or on the free list and whether raw material or finished or partly finished products, The Increase we propose is seven and a half per cent, ad valorem to the general and intermedial" tariffs and five per cent, ad valorem to the British preferential. In the case of iron ores 1 shall give In committee the added duly as specilic and not ad valorem. In determining the list of exceptions regard has been had to our trade conventions with France and the obligations of our agreement with certain of the British Wesi India colonies. By reason of the former, tlie increased customs duties will not apply to silk fabrics, velvets, ribbons, embroideries and certain other goods. '!':.-:■ exce; tions to tlie tariff increases 1 have mentioned include wheal, Hour, tea, anthracite coal, fish from Newfoundland, salt for curing fish, lines, twines, nets and books for tlie fisheries, reapers, mowers, binders, harvesters, binder twine, traction ditching NAVIGABLE WATERS PROTECTION AOT.
