(By Dally News Leased Wire.) LONDON, June 2.—Summarizing the statements issued toy the Britisli admiralty, and collating them with the credible facts of tlie Berlin statement, the British cruiser squadron, consisting of six or perhaps eight battle cruisers, a. number of light cruisers and destroyers, supported by four fast dreadnauglit battleships, probably of the Queen Elizabeth class, curried out a reconnaissance in force off the coast of Jutland and there came into contact with the German high seas fleet. In tlie battle which followed, lasting a day and a night, under foggy and misty conditions, the losses on either side wore heavy, but it remained a tactical British victory. The enemy was forced to retreat, while German losses in super-dreadnaughts consisted of two Kaiser class battleships and one Derffllnger class battle cruiser wero sunk, while two more of the latter were sunk or seriously damaged, as against three British battle cruisers sunk. The enemy therefore Buffered considerably heavier actual and enormously greater relative loss in the all-Important capital ships. British losses further include three armored cruisers of an obsolete type. Loss of Life Heavy Unfortunately the loss of life in these vessels must have been heavy. Eight British destroyers were also lost. Against these British losses of Inferior craft tho enemy lost one light cruiser, six destroyers and one submarine, with two other light cruisers disabled, possibly lost. The loss of life may range anywhere from 12,000 to 15,000, perhaps fairly evenly distributed. The German high seas fleet, if as Berlin seems to state, in full force was greatly superior in offensive -armament to the opposing British force. After, rumors had been flying about all day that ti, naval battle had occurred In the North sea, the British public was given the first news by the admiralty this evening. The battle seems to have lasted throughout the afternoon and night. The German losses were stated to have been serious, but no definite information of these losses was afforded by the admiralty in early announcements. The news was flashed out in special editions of the evening papers and_ caused* greater consternation in tho west end of London than had been witnessed in any previous occasion since the declaration of war. The frankness of tho admiralty committee concerning the serious nature of the British losses led to the assumption in most minds that tbe British vessels must have been led Into a mine field. Following quickly on the admiralty announcement came the Gorman official version of the fight, which in general confirms the British account, but carrjes the claim that tlie battleship Warspitc was sunk and another British battleship was sunk. News Startles England. The official announcement of the sea fight was given out at the government's official press bureau at 7 o'clock yesterday evening and spread with almost unbelievable speed to the remotest corners of the kingdom. All the London evening newspapers rushed special editions into the streets and the presses were still turning out papers at 10 o'clock, although virtually noth- (Continued on Page Two.)

IN STATEMENT TO THE DAILY N EW8 HE .GIVES OUTLINE OF MEASURES GOVERNMENT HAS PUT INTO EFFECT FOR THE UPBUILDING OF THE PROVINCE AND COMMENTS ON FAILURE OF LIBERALS TO MAKE GOOD CHARGES WHILE ENGINEERING GREATEST ELECTION FRAUD IN CANADA'S HISTORY. Jk^ The Beer Without a Peer j BOLD AT ALL LEADING HOTELS Alberta's Pride MANUFACTURED IN THE MOST SANITARY AND MODERN BREWERY IN CANADA BY THB LETHBRIDGE BREWING AND MALTING CO. , ONCE USED ALWAYS USED HAIL ORDERS SHIPPED PROMPTLY CALL UP OUR REPRESENTATIVE-TELEPHONE 201 Nation W-arahouMi Poet of Stanley Btrott P.O. SOX Ml (By Staff Correspondent.) VICTORIA, June 2.—The constructive legislation for the upbuilding of the province and its industries which the government has put into effect this session, the failure of the Liberals to make good their charges of corruption against the government and the proved plugging frauds carried on by the Liberals in the election of M. A. Macdonald in Vancouver are 'dealt with -by Premier Bowser In a statement to The Daily News. The statement refers also to the good work of Hon. Lome A. Campbell and to the fact that every pledge made by Premier Bowser on assuming office has been fulfilled. Mr. Bowser says: "Now that the session Is over I wish to review some of the salient features of the 'business done and the legislation put on the statute books. It has been a strenuous one for me and for all the members and I think I can say without fear of challenge that in no session of the legislature since I have become a member or .since I have been associated with the government has there been so much important and far reaching business carried on. At the outset my friends expressed anxiety about my being able to stand the strain, but I am thankful to say that after months of exceedingly hard work I am physically much more fit than when I started In and am ready and lull of vim for the impending campaign. In this connection I must not forget to pay a compliment to the arduous work of the leader and members of the opposition. They have worked strenuously, morning, noon and night, and if they have not accomplished more. In their special mission of inquiry it is because of the lack of the Incriminating material they started out to find. Proves Conservative Retcord. I regret, of course, that the cities of Vancouver and Victoria should have returned opposition candidates, 'because the results might seem to have reflected public opinion in the prov ince. I am satisfied that the verdict of these two -byelections did reflect a strong feeling In these two cities, at least for an opposition. But I do not now regret the defeats sustained on that ground, because it has convinced me It was the most effective way of clearing the skirts of the government Of stain in respect of the many and serious charges made against it. "I kno-w, that personally I had noth ing to fear ana was satisfied that so far as other members of the government and members of the legislature wero concerned, they were in a slml tar position, "At the very-outset I courted the full est investigation. The government gave the fullest opportunity for en- cjuiry and placed every facility possl ble at the hands of the opposition. The usiii'l restriction in regard to the pub lie accounts, as to time, was done away wlt.i, and the committee had the doors opened to the men for six years back. After the most searching enquiry 'the net result Is that as a consequence of the enquiry one civil servant has resigned. The electorate, therefore, can judge how far the political opponents of the government were entitled to make the sweeping charges they did for months before the elections, slandering not only the government, but Injuring the credit of the province. "I might very well nt this point re,- fer to tile fact that while in Vancouver during the byeleetion campaign the government was .being slandered in this unparalleled manner* at that very time the infamous plot was Incubating whereby many hundreds of 'Piuggers' were imported from.Seattle to steal the franchise from electors of Vancouver m the interests of the Liberal candidate. I. shall, however, reserve what I have to say in that regard for other occasions and will content myself with remarking thnt no more barefaced frauds were ever perpetrated in the history of Canada than were those which have been revealed before the select commute which has been probing the circumstances attending the Vancouver byeleetion. Important New Measures. The business of the session outside of the political aspect was very Important and it is probable that never has a single session seen so many and so important enactments affecting the normal and industrial affairs of the province. The province was faced with many serious problems as the result of changed conditions and the government set itself to work to seek the best solution and I can safely say that success has crowned its efforts. I shall only refer briefly to the operations of the agricultural credits act. There was nothing, of course, in connection with that which required the sanction of the legislature was appraised, was taken. The commission has been organized, the money for the purpose of credit has been provided, and already 1000 applications have been received. I look with great expectations to the results in increased productions. I may here add that the act providing for a separate minister, of agriculture has been received with a great deal of satisfaction throughout the country. We shall have better results than ever before under the new regime. "The most serious situation which faced the government was that of the Hotel Touraine SPOKANE . a eontrally located hotel opposite Review Building, half block from new Monroe Street Bridge; a full view down Riverside Avenue from lobby. ,.

We had lumber of ship and a big market to supply, but no ships to carry the lumber to market It was riot only the case of lumber,. ;but anything else which had to go .by sea to rtiarket. The 'government of Canada is building an elevator at Vancouver with a vie;w to middle west wheat being carried this way through the Panama canal to Europe. Of what; use will an elevator be If there are no ships to carry wheat and flour abroad? The Need of Shipn. As it Is, the shipbuilding policy Is the natural and logical compliment of the railway policy. Ships'to carry the wheat of the middle west and the prod ucts of tho province to market means supplying the railways with traffic to earn interest on the investment. To throttle the shipbuilding proposition, which the opposition proposed, to do, means hampering the railways. To leave your railways and industries in the air because! you have to borrow money to relieve the situation would be the most suicidal and unbuslness like thing to think of. No business man, who found a link missing in his business facilities, in order to make his business pay, would hesltato to go to the bank and borrow the money necessary to supply the missing link, and no banker would refuse to lend the money for the purpose to the man whose credit was good. "The shipbuilding act is already bearing fruit. Already the government has leased a portion of the Songhees reserve to a Victoria company where two ships will be laid down at once and two other ships to follow are arranged, and a firm in Vancouver has a contract to build three ships, these to be supplied ■ with auxiliary engines, Just as soon as ships are ready to load lumber, mills everywhere on the coast will be working overtime In filling orders. "A similar course of reasoning as that outlined with regard to shipbuilding applies to the completion'of the Pacific Great Eastern railway. The government having invested so much of its credit in that enterprise could not afford ' In this connection too, we nave seen to it that in the Impending elections the soldiers,' ^herever, they are, in camp in British Columbia, In England, or at the front, shall not lose their franchise. While absent fighting they have still their home Interests and sympathies aiid views and they have, every right, indeed and Increased right oh account of the sacrifices they are. making, to vote as they feel.' The great difficulty was to devise a plan for re?' cording their votes, but that was sue cessfully overcome. Soldiers' Rights Guarded. "The government has by several acts and amendments protected the rights of soldiers in land, mineral claims, contracts and In every other way possible. "The referendum in respect of prohibition was provided for in view of the government's conviction that the people were entitled to an opportunity to express their attitude on this question. The act which is now law provides that should the majority of the electors favor this, effect will he given to their wAU\ "Another question of importance has heen brought to an issue in the bill for woman's suffrage which will become automatically effective if carried by the electors. "'My colleague, Lome Campbell, minister of mines, has done splendid work since he. assumed office. Mis fitness for the portfolio was obvious, but his clear insight into the mining conditions of ihe province and the problems connected therewith has enabled him to beat into shape several mcasres which will be ot Incalculable aid to the mining industr* "The encouragement to prospectors which he was able to offer and the assistance to claim owners in developing their prospects by building roads and trails, if reported upon favorably will put new life Into many camps and open up many more. There will be a much wider field of expert investigation than ever before. Mr. Campbell Is going carefully Into the possibilities of the iron and steel industry on this coast ahd of reviving the coal industry on the island of Vancouver by. the utilization of byproducts. He is also ac< quiring information in respect of water powers, particularly in respect of electrolytic smelting. We will be In a position, I hope, by the time the next legislature meets, to make some very interesting announcements. •''When I took office as premier In December last, when the late session opened and during the byelections, I made certain announcements and pro mlses, all of which have been fulfilled to the very letter and so long as I hold office i shall hold my pledged word as the very essence of every contract with the electorate." 27 VESSELS LOST fNKAVAL EIGHT (Continued from Page One.) ing was being printed -beyond the announcements. It may be stated that the news of the naval battle reached Cardiff and Edinburgh two minutes after it was given out at the presH bureau and the newspapers of the two cities were displaying it to the public a few minutes later. In London copies of the official statement appeared as if by magic in shop windows, clubs, theatre lobbies, hotels and restaurants, while huge posters put out by the evening papers stared the populace in the face at every street corner. It was remarkable how the feeling of confidence in the great British fleet kept Its hold on the people, despite the undeniably heavy losses chronicled in the official accounts of the fight. Every where the talk was not so much for the loss as of confidence in the future and a determination to carry on the struggle with increased force. Germans Retired The outstanding facts gathered from the German official statement on the naval fight is that the Germans were driven back to their base. The losses on both sides were apparently heavy but the Germans were defeated In what wns probably their main object —that of raiding the British east coast or an excursion in force into the Atlantic to capture or sink transports of Canadian troops. In some quarters' it is thought that the British fleet may have cleared a way into the Baltic by this action. Report from Fleet An addition British official statement says: "Since the foregoing communication was Issued a further report has been received from the commander-in- chief of the grand fleet, stating that it has now been ascertained that our total losses In destroyers amount to 14 boats in alt. "The commander-in-chief also reports that it Is now possible to form a closer estimate of the losses and the damage sustained by the enemy fleet.

German Admiralty Statement BERLIN, June 2.—The text of the German admiralty report on the North sea battle, which is dated June 1, is as follows: 'During an enterprise directed to the northward our high sea fleet May 31 encountered the main part of the English fighting fleet which was considered superior to ours. "During the afternoon between Skagerak and Hornrlff, a heavy engagement developed, which, was successful for ub, and which continued during the whole night.

BRITANNIA 8TILL RULES THE WAVE8 ' First reports of the great naval tattle in the North sea received yesterday gave the impression that the German navy had gained a victory over the British, but as usual the full extent of the damage to the British fleet was known several hours before the losses of the Oermans were reported fully, and, in fact, the latter are not known yet. It is apparent that six British battle cruisers and light cruisers havo been lost, as well as eight destroyers, or fourteen In all. On the other hand three German battleships, two battle cruisers, two German light cruisers and six destroyers are known to have heen sunk and other vessels of the fleet disabled. Honors, therefore, may be said to he even so far as the loss of ships is concerned and victory may well be claimed by the British navy'-from the fact that the German fleet was com-' pelled to return again to its haven in the Kiel canal. Britannia still rules the waves. J. J. HILL One of the most forceful personalities of the great railroad-building age of America has passed away by the death of James J. Hill, who was a native of Canada. If to build and manage her first transcontinental railway Canada brought Van Home from the United States, she gave an equivalent—and perhaps something more-r-in the person of Mr. Hill. In the early days of Western Canada Mr. Hill had an intimate connection in business and transportation with the ten frontier outpost of Winnipeg. He was a charte member of the present Canadian Pacific railway company; but did not lonfe continue his connection with the Canadian enterprise. The development of his own system in the empire of the northwestern States engrossed his enegtes; and although some ten years ago he created considerable stir by declaring an Intention to enter the Canadian West as an active competitor of the existing systems, nothing came of the large schemes then foreshadowed, except a few branch railways which projected themselves from his main system into Western Canada. ,' Mr. Hill, In his later days, became something of an oracle on business and finance, and bis views were eagerly sought whenever great movements were afoot. He always knew that the prosperity of his railway depended upon the development of the country which It served, and was a persistent advocate, by precept and example, of wealth-getting by the skilful cultivation of the soil. Manitoba is now on the water- wagon and hip pockets will bo made quart size in future. Are you fit for active service?

Fighting to the last under the leadership of the Prince Regent, she has saved the greater part of her army, and only awaits the opportunity to drive the invaders from her country. Through fire and sword, famine and pestilence, her spirit has proved indomitable. She is an example to us all, and she will surely have her reward.—Westminster Gazette. Germany's Latest Indications. Close on the heels of Germany's concessions to the United, States in the submarine controversy and the Sussex' case, come, first, admonitions to the German-Americans in this country to obey strictly the laws of this country and then news of Germany's desire to settle as soon as possible the Von Igle case. These things can indicate only that Germany has a real desire to eliminate all friction between the two nations and to maintain harmony 'between the countries in the future.—Rochester, N. Y„ Union and Advertiser. Ignorance No Pies. Those who are trying to block all efforts toward national preparedness will do well to consider that there are some errors which are crimes and for which no repentance will atone and which no effort can rectify. If through their work the nation some day meets disaster a plea of ignorance will be palliation of their sin and remorse will be vain. Bunyan in his "-pilgrim's Progress" pictures Ignorance dec-ending to hell by a special short route, and the fact that he brought his fate on himself by not knowing as much as he ought to know did not make the burning ono whit less -agonizing.—De troit Free Press. I GERMANY'S BLUNDERS. When the outbreak in Dublin occurred, a number of professional Irish herc\ clerical and lay, some of whom hava even visited Ireland, engaged in the congenial task of fighting England wltn their mouths. They were, in fact, the men behind the guns; indeed, as Mr. Dooley says, "three thousand miles behind the guns, and willing to be farther." They called the outbreak a "revolution," which Is the technical name for a successful rebellion. But the markets of the world did not call it anything so Impressive, British consols throughout the week fluctuated sluggishly between 57 3-lfi and 57 1-8. It is true that the treasury regulations arising out of the war restrict that market. But they do not affect the Anglo-French loan of $500, 000.000 floated here. American opinion is free, and can express Itself in the stock market. During the brief period of the "rebellion" the high price of this security was 95 1-4 and the low price 94 7-8. This is what Senator Spooner onco called "the bloodless verdict of the market place." Investors in securities are not concerned with what the grandfathers of the present English did to the grandfathers of the present Irish. ' But they are most particularly concerned in anything that really affects the British Em pira and the British Empire's' credit. They registered the opinion accord Ingly, in unmistakable figures. Germany, to use a popular colloquialism, has bought another gold brick. Intending to buy the Irish people she bought a small section of the wrong Irish. Intending to buy a revolt In India, she -bought a few over- educated talkative Balms, who have never fought with anything but words and speech, for centuries easy victims of the real fighting races In India, until the British protected them. The Germans bought the wrong Boer also, and the right Boer waded in and wiped out the German-African colonies. What is the next "gold brick?" It ought to be an invasion of Canada by the German-American reservists. Their line of supports and supplies is an interesting subject for conjecture. The thing is just thinkable, and it would emphasize afresh the desperate plights to which the Hohcnzol- lerns are reduced to save their tottering dynasty.—Wall Street Journal, I heard the Jilt of my young love's song, As he went down the lane; And I wonder'd as I heard him go, "Will he come back again" 'Tie he will dance with Indies gay, The finest man of all; And he'll forget the roadsldo dance, And Kerry in the fall. I heard the call of the lone wild goose, In her flight toward the sea. "Ah, take my love a thought of home. And -bring him back to me!" The mist rolls in from the silent hills, ,And the smell of the peat is strong; The kine are gathcr'd for tho night— The. twilight hour is long! The lights are lit; the stars are out; The evening air is cool; And far away, a dull, dark mass, The peak of Carintoul. "And yet, perchance, he'll not forget," Is what yon star would say. Ho will unlatch the garden gate— The years of yesterday. 'Tis then the mourning gulls shall scream And wheel, a flash of white, Up- up, towards the new-found sun, That bathes them in his light. Tho hilts will look a strip of green The bay a streak of blue; For when my love comes homo again, It will bo springtime, too, \ But now the night is come at last, The world Is dark arid cold, Ah, would my love were hy my side, When all the world grows old. —Norreys Jephson O'Connor. Things to worry about: Baromo- ters, "What Is tho shupe of the earth?" asked the teacher in a night school of an elderly •pupil, a man of most amiable tendencies. "Round," replied tho man. "How do you know it's round?" persisted the teacher. "All right," replied the man. "It's square then. I don't want to start any argument about it." "Her feet beneath her petticoat Like tittle mice stole in and out, As If they feared tho light." Thus wrote a bard of long ago; If he could see our fashion show, I woarier what he'd write! —Corihnp Rockwell Swain In Judge. The cross-examination did not seem to worry you. Have you had any previous experience? Client—Six children. Private Bates' aunt had, among dther dainties, sent her . ilephew a bottle of cherries preserved in brandy. "Very choice," thought tbe khakled one, and he straightway showed them to his fellow-soldiers. A few days later the old lady received the following -letter; "Dear Aunt—Thank you so much for your gift of cherries. My pals and I appreciate them immensely, not so much for themselves as for the spirit in which they were sent." jWHAT THE PRE88 18 8AYINQ 1 Patriotism snd Production. ■ A nation lives, and fights not on What its forefathers have produced or what Its sons will produce, but on What Its citizens, by the combined efforts of their capital and labor, produce from day to day. The bulk of .What a country produces in peace is (Consumed quickly enough; but war enormously accelerates the process. In normal periods- there is an excess of production and this a country adds to its capital stock or exchanges with other nations for things lt cannot produce itself but wants. If during war time this surplus production is increased—ae it can easily ibe, for as it is well known, In peace time a nation never produces its maximum— Whatever economic losses are due to .war can be soon resplaced—Vancouver .TYorld.

Servia, like Belgium, has made good her title to he ranked with the heroic nations, "twice she-drove into ignomt- . nous retreat the powerful force which Austria-Hungary had prepared former destruction, and In the end lt required -ft combination of two great powers NOTHING DOING. A Brantford lady was overheard an swering a complaint that the allies are doing nothing at the front, by saying: "But think what they-are preventing the Germans from doing." There is a world of common sense in this remark, If the French are keeping the Huns out of Verdun, are they doing nothing? If the British and French are keeping the Huns out of Salonikl, or from reaching Calais, are they doing nothing? If the British navy is keeping the German battleships locked up in the Kiel canal, and strangling German commerce in the seven seas, ts it doing nothing? If the British have blocked the invasion of Egypt by the Turks, have they been doing nothing? It Is true that, with the prevalent de sire to have the war brought to a close as speedily as possible with the utter rout of Germany, there is some uneas: iness that no rapid advance is being made, but it should not bo forgotten that meantime Germany is wasting hor troops and wasting her natural resources while the preponderating strength of the allies is being steadily increased. Those who complain about nothing doing seem to be looking for a short cut to end the world's greatest war, and fail to appreciate that this war Is not to be thus easily settled. —Brantford, Ont., Exporter. r STEAMER MOVEMENTS l *-*>* At New York—Celtic, Liverpool.

"Among others, the large battleship Marlborough was hit by a torpedo, This was confirmed liy prisoners. "Several of our whips rescued parts of tho crew of the sunken English ships, among them being two, the oniy survivors of the Indefatigable. "On our side, the small cruiser Weisbaden was sunk by hostile guns during the day engagement and H. M, S. Pommern was sent to the bottom during the night liy a torpedo. "The fate of the Frauenlob and some of our torpedo boats which have not returned is not known, "The remainder of the high seas fleet returned safely to the base." Admiral Hebbinghaus, director of the admiralty, told the relchstag this afternoon that the British torpedo boat losses were greater than had first been reported. At least three destroyer flotilla flagships, said the admiral, and nine or 10 other destroyers had been sunk Of these the battelshtp Wertfalen alone sank six. The German battleship Pommern was sunk by a torpedo, tho admiral continued, and the Weisbaden by artillery. The Frauenlob was last seen by a German destroyed in a night encounter with a heavy list and the admiral said it wka assumed it had been sunk. Zeppelins Also Engaged. NEW YORK, June 2.—A news agency depsatch from London says: "Latest unofficial reports of the na ^al battle received here claim that a zeppelin fleet cooperated with the German naval forces and worked heavy execution among the British vessels." 8trewed See With Mines.

NAVAL BAnLES NEWS HITS WHEAT MARKET Opening Weak and Prices Take Toboggan When Report of Engagement Is Received. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) CHICAGO, III., June 2.—Announcement of heavy losses by the British in a naval battle with the Germans caused a sharp break today In wheat. Prices closed weak, July ut %lMy> at % and September $1,05%. Outs % to % lower and provisions 10"to 30c lower. The market had been trending downward from the outset but It was not until news of the battle came that the prices begun to -descend In earnest. The hour 'before the selling had been of u scattering character, u general rush to the bear side now ensued. The popular theory was that one consequence of the buttle would be to bring about a renewal of peace talk and thus have at least temporarily a depressing effect on wheat prices whether peace was ultimately brought nearer or not. Under such conditions the market showed no power to rally, but with unabated liquidation, short selling and tack tot support finished ut ubout the lowest prices of the duy. Weakness of quo- tutions at Liverpool was confidently responsible for early declines in the market. The chief reasons given were that the arrival of supplies in Great Britain had been on a large scale and that abundant receipts were likely to WANT WESTERN UNION RETORT Wood Pipe and Tanks_ All Kinds and Sizes.

MONTREAL, June 2—Early strength in the local market today was follow ed by a set back In the afternoon when reports of a German naval -success brought out a moderate volume of sell ing, most of which converged on the steel group. Pronounced weakness was- in evidence, stocks meeting a fair demand on the decline, but the recent buoyancy disappeared from the market and there was evident unwillingness to enter *intd| new commitments. The close was quiet with a rather; uncertuin tone und a confused array1 of gains and losses, * ■*•-- Detroit and Steamship common were tho features in tho morning session advance, the former equaling its high record quotations on a rise of 2% points to 117% and the latter established a new high on a rise of 1% to 79%. Uoth fell 'back In the late decline. Detroit's gain was reduced to: y£ for the day at 111! and Steamships to 1% to^ 28 Ms. In Cement the decline went from 7014 to 0S*ft and closed at the lowest. Smelters fell off 1 to 41. In view of the large advances credited to the Steel stocks and Cement,, these declines were extremely moderate . extent and general steadiness was encouraged by the lack of selling pressure in high priced stocks like Power, Bridge and -Laurentide. These three were all credited with net gains for the day. Total business 14,210 shares, BOG mines and $131,700 bonds. J. 8. CARTER, D. P. A., Nelson, B. c. STERLING EXCHANGE 4.75.75.

WINNIPEG, June 2.—Arguments on the motion to quash the Kelly indictment were concluded in the assize court today and Judge prendergast announced thnt ho will give his decision Monday. Tho chief point dealt with hy the crown in the afternoon was the contention of the defense that one of the counts in the indictments charges Kelly with receiving money, which had been obtained by a conspiracy between hirmfclf and the ex-ministers.. It was improper, the defense maintained, to charge a man with theft and also with receiving at the same transac tion. in reply J. B. Coyne, K. C asserted that tho count did not charge Kelly with obtaining .by conspiracy the same money he was charged with re ceiving. The count simply mado i charge of receiving. That it mentioned the conspiracy was simply to show how the receiving had been possible, R. W. Craig, for the crown, argued that an allegation of conspiracy did not moan that acts in pursuance of the conspiracy hud necessarily been committed. In rebutting \he arguments of the crown, H. H. Dewart declared the crown counsel had virtually confessed that the motion to quash had valid basis. He *snid the crown's suggestion that the counts must not be amended, together with certain other remarks, had the air of being an apology for a loosely drawn indictment.

(3222) Horace Provis of Nelson Tells of Indifference to Death of Soldiers at the Front. The following letter has been received by a Nelson resident from Pte. Horace Provis of Nelson, who after six months at the front with the Canadian expeditionary forces, is still unwounded: "We have been having busy times over hero in ouf new position and no doubt you will have seen the number of casualties that our battalion has suffered. I haven't a scratch so far, but I've had some pretty narrow squeaks and have been shaken up a. bit I have lost a number of my mates and seen our company commander killed. One young lad I trained with at Shorncliffe can not be found at all —'blown to bits, I suppose. "We have put'in eight days so far this trip. Tho place where we are, I may tell you, has been the slaughter house of tho war. Can't stick a spade in the ground without disturbing something. "I got two bundles of reading master that you sent me in March. Many thanks. I expect to have a chance to read here for a few days, but we will be going up to the front line every night on work parties. When we do this We ihave to sleep during the day. I am beginning to think myself pretty lucky as I have been out hero over six months and haven't got a scratch—yet. "You would be surprised to know how little the loss of life among our mates affects us, but. we see so much fo death that It bothers us but little. Very few of the men think they are going*to get it until their, (time comes. Most of our fellows wero-knoeked out py shrapnel and rifle fire. The Germans sent over a big bunch of 'whiz- bangs,' meinewalfers and high explosive shrapnel, which sent everything flying and we only escaped by the skin of our teeth. "Wo wore warned a few days ago against writing to any strange women In caso I hey might be spies. I wrote as nice a letter as I could to that youii; lady you told mo of, but I haven't got an answer yet—dongast it! I hope the censor doesn't figure her out to be a spy. • It's hard lines when a fellow can't write to a young lady any more, I think they should havo pity on us." MR.
