TO
OF
BY
TRIPLE ALUANCE
LORD ASKWITH, WHO HAS HAD MUCH EXPERIENCE IN SETTLING
LABOR DISPUTES, HAS DENOUNCED THE PREMIER BITTERLY
AS BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR PRESENT SITUATION THROUGH
HIS POLICY OF "POLITICAL INTERFERENCE IN INDUSTRIAL
BUSINESS"; TAXPAYERS ARE FOOTING INDIRECT BILLS 'FROM
THE MINERS' STRIKE; WORKERS THROWN OUT OF EMPLOYMENT BY COAL SHORTAGE ARE RECEIVING THE "UNEMPLOYMENT DOLE," WHICH IN THE CASE OF FAMILY MEN AMOUNTS
TO MORE THAN $10 A WEEK
LONDON. .Inly 31 (The Associated
Vress),—The general Industrial unrest in Great Britain, which has been
seel hi ng ever since. Iho armistice,
seems at lhe present hour to have
reached a point which menaces the
commerce of the country with at
leant temporary disasler. It Is considered possible lhat It mny mean
llie downfall of the. Lloyd fieorge
government. The strikes of tlie past
month hiivo been serious enough, hut
Ihey are merely symptomatic of 'the
dissatisfaction which appears io prevail throughout the ranks of organized   labor.
4Half a. million Lancashire cotton
pperallves were idle for more than
three   weeks. r
Two hundred thousand Yorkshire
miners have been ou strike since
..lily   20.
The Liverpool dock workors havo
paralyzed shipping I hen1 for two
weeks, holding up hundreds of ships
nf all si7.es.
The bakers have decided io strike
on Saturday and now the London
police are about to go on their
second  strike.
"Direct Action" Threat
Tlio worst movement, of nil from
Ihe government standpoint is the
threat of "direct action" hy the triple
alliun'ce of rallwaymen, miners and
transport workers. These powerful
unions are talcing a secret ballot to
decide whelh^. .hey shall use the
weapon nf a. general strike to try
Ip enforce their political program of
the nationalisation of the mines and
railways and lo end Conscription and
withdrawal from all participation lu
all Russian affairs.
lu Ihesc circumslances words of
revolution ami bolshevisin crop up in
llie newspapers and are used by
rnnservn Live men 11 > describe the
present movement. Some of lhe
newspapers are asking where the
money comes from to finance all the
propaganda being put forth.
The government regards the police
strike us tbe most dangerous feature
of the prevalent unrest, it may
prove a critical test of the labor
campaign. The home secretary, K,
Shorlt, has declared lhat the government is firm and will consider no
compromise or yield to the policemen's demands to save the status of
an ordinary labor union.
Lord Askwith, formerly Sir George
Tlniiken Askwith, who has had more
experience than any man in Kngland
in settling labor disputes, has denounced tbe premier bitterly as being
responsible for the present condition
by his policy of "political interference in industrial business."
Lord Askwith, who has been chief
Industrial commissioner since 15)11,
says: "The premier has impressed
every trade, sometimes the employers,
more often the employed, with the
belief that they only had to push
hard enough to receive their demands
from lhe bottomless purse of the
nation,"
Tho taxpayers are footing the indirect hills from the miners' strike,
all tlie workers thrown out of employment through the coal shortage
are getting the "unemployed dole,"
which in lhe case of men with
families amounts to more than two
pounds a. week, and (the number of
these In the industrial centres oil the
Midlands is steadily increasing.
Direct action by the workers is
denounced hy many public men as
an attempt to usurp the powers of
parliament and govern the country
by a dictatorship of labor unions.
Labor's answer is thai lhe present
parliament does not represent Ibe
country and has gone hack on its
pledges io labor.
Election in Sight?
John Itndgo, former minister of
pensions,  said   in   parliament  tonight;
"It looks as if we are approaching
a general election."
lYomier Lloyd flcnrge's famous
policy of compromise, so long successful, appears to have reached tho
breaking point and certainly is undergoing Its severest test, No sooner
is one eruption cleared up than a
now one breaks out, Tho old leaders
of labor men nf the typo of .1. H.
Thomas. William A damson, spokesman of the Labor parly in lhe house
of commons, John Hodge and William Thorno ai'e preaching restraint
and patience while reconstruction
from the war is being arranged and
are warning ihe worUingmen lhat
Great Britain's future is Imperilled
unless she ean regain hor foreign
trade.
Mr. Thomas has held up the picture- of Unlled Stutos compel it ion
and United States enterprise, But
the old leaders seem to have lost
their influence. A new and younger
set, a majority of them outspoken
Socialist, some of them not even
v.orkingmon but Socialist Iheorlsts,
are in  tlie saddle.
WILL BE COAL FAMINE
SAYS RAILWAY BOARD
MONTREAL. July 31.—Immediate action is urged by the Canadian
railway war board in connection
with next winter's supply of coal

dian Railway war board this morning.
"We are satisfied on that point
and the railways' of Canada1 are

"Rumors tbat the coal famine in

the facts."

MOVE  DECIDED ON IN
SECRET BY EXECUTIVE
Bill   Before  Parliament to   Reorganize
Department Is Chief Grievance-
London  City  Force  Not
Affected,
London, August 1.—Earlyi this
morning very few policemen had. responded to tlte strike, call, The night
patrolmen start their shut at io o'qlo.ok
at. night and all but a small number
of tlicin, which the authorities describe
aw negligible, went on duty to remain
at. their posts throughout the night.
It seems that tho large majority of
the policemen wero not aware of the
Intention of the union to call them out
and many learned that the strike had
been ordered only through being asked
by newspaper reporters whether they
intended to join the movement. Some
ol the men refused to believe that a
slrlke had l.een ordered. Some of
these expressed disappointment at tho
action.
Made Secret Decision.
It.   appeared   evident  that  the   move
was decided upon secretly by tbe union
xeoutl.v
•Some doubt hus been expressed that
tho strike will not prove moro than
partial.. The men got a substantial
raise In pay ami other concessions
recently, ami it it* said lhat a large
part of the force disapproved of the
conduct of tbi' union's executives. The
assertion is made that some, of the
police were piirlieulaVly offended at
Secretary Hayes' publishing on behalf
of the union an apology to the riotous
crowd, Which the police soma (hue ago
dispersed outside the parliament buildings. Moreover, it is said that trouble
with tlle authorities was settled. The
polico wore told that any member'-ol
tho force who wen! on strike In the
future would bo Instantly dismissed
and not reinstated, and that he would
lose his pension.
On lhe other hand, the union ap-
pnrenlly has a strong hold on a section of the force, some of whom support its action and others who hesitate to act  on account ol the union's
rdi-i's, fearing pressure from Ihelr
comrades. The union's strongest influence is among Hie constables belonging to the Last End contingent,
and tonight's strikers nre chiefly
anion gtheso, ll remains to be seen
what will develop today when the action of the executive of the union is
fully canvassed.
City Police Not Affected.
The London Ci'y police, which is a
separate body controlled by tho city
council, and not by lhe government,
like the metropolitan police force, has
not been affected by the,strike up to
the present. A lale report said a
great majority nf tlle police in the
Hast End district quit afler they
learned of the call of the union. These
men number several hundred,
The total strength of ibe metropolitan   force  is  about  1!0,000.
General   Call   Issued.
LONDON, July lii.-An Immediate
strike of lhe London police was derided on tonight at mass meetings
held In various places. The grievance
of tho police Is the bill before parliament reorganising ihe department,
This provides for the organization of
a polico union, but prohibits it from
affiliating with labor unions and prohibits policemen from going out ou
jtrike under any circumstances with
heavy penalties.
Secretary Hayes of the National
Union of Police and Prison nffleers
has Issued an order in lhe name of the
executive committee calling nut nil
members in the kingdom at once, and
also an appeal to all organised workers "m move to our support at your
earliest convenience."    ,
The police and prison Officers union,
which is lhe policemen's union, regards the bill as aa attack nol only
upon the policemen themselves, but
upon the whole labor Interests, hence
Ihelr appeal to the workers, which begins, "The government, has dared to
persist in its efforts lo utilize the political machinery to destroy your undoubted right io organise for the legal
ttlon of your own Interests."
It. proceedd lo explain tlmt the preservation of the union Is the only means
Whereby (he men ean retain their
hard   Won   freedom   as   cltlxens,   and
continues!
"The passage of the police bill will
mean the complete destruction nr your
union, tlie existence of which was fully

One of three was shot today, though
a dozen or more members of both
races were wounded in thu scattered
disturbances, most of them of n minor
character.
Tbe negro area was comparatively
piiet tonight, The presence of troops
apparently had calmed the negroes'
fears and had a salutary effect on
disturbing elements among the whites
and blacks. The troops were well
distributed and the military machinery
wus  running smoothly.
Pood supplies were rushed into the
negro sertions by cooperation of tho
Wholesale grocers' association, tbe police and the troops. The black belt
remained a barred zone, where whiles
miKht not enter, and even the guarded trucks of groceries were driven
only in ibc deadline by while chauffeurs, who then were relieved by negro drivers  under police escort.
.Many of the poorer negroes were
reported lu dire need of food, and without funds. Today was pay day at the
stock yards, but negroes feared to go
there to diaw Ihelr wjiges. Thousands of negroes have not attempted
to go lo work at all,
Negro babies were worse sufferers.
They were withoui milk mull today,
when City Comptroller Harding sctii

DEAN OF ST. PAUL'S ISSUES
WARNING  TO   LABORITES
LONDON, July 31.—In a speech
tonifjht at a meeting of tbe people's league, which was instituted
for the protection of the unorganized classes, tbe Very Rev. William
Ralph Inge, dean of St, Paul's,
said:
"Wc arc making for national
bankruptcy,, which will result in
anarchy."
He declared he was not hostile
to trade unions, but tbat they had
become huge capitalistic concerns,
which wero engaged in financinfl
raids on  the  people.
"With them it is not a strugglo
between rich and poor," he continued. "It is open brigandago
against the community. They are
a privileged class determined that
these privileges shall not go outside themselves. Thoy are shutting down employment not only
against discharged soldiers, but
wounded men."
Francis M. B. Fishor, diroctor
of tho Imperial Association of
Commerce, said that if the labor
party continued its present tactics
it would ruin not only itself, but
the country,

arranged to confer late today with n
deputation of mine workers.
Leaders of both sides agreed that
it wns difficult to determine what
should be the next step towards settlement, the newspapers say In their
editorials today, commenting upon the
danger to industry.
"The best thing for us to do," says
Herbert Smith, head of the Yorkshire
Miners* federation, "is to sit tight and
say nothing; then we will not be mis-
presented or misunderstood."
Bakers' Demands.
The proposed bakers' strike is
threatened lo force Ihe demand of the
men for a. minimum wage nf $.0, a
44-hour week, nnd the abolition of

The master bakers refused to consider these demands, they said, unless

Therefore, you are driven to tho final

The appeal then announces thnt the
members of the union are to withdraw
their services immediately, such withdrawal to remain effective until the
"gross Injustice imposed by the provisions of the' police bill is remedied
and a. full and frank recognition of the

The appeal concludes: "The members oi your executive have already

Threaten   to   Use   Force   to   Prevent
Papers Containing Costello Articles
from  Entering Canada
WINDSOR, July 31.—The entry into Canada today at the port of Windsor of the Detroit Free Press, carrying another Costello article, has so
incensed the veterans thut the executive of the Walkervillc nnd Ford
commands got together In*a hurry
and passed a resolution to use force
if necessary to keep the papers from
landing ai  this  port.
The Border cities Liberty league,
learning tbat organized resistance no
longer is a possibility but a certainty,
dispatched tt telegram to Sir Robert
Borden, protesting the government's
delay In  taking action and slating:
"If publications containing further
Coslello articles or editorials alleg
ing drunkenness, cowardice and im
morality he allowed to pass we, as
returned soldiers of His Majesty the
KIpg, are determined to remove tbe
sheet by force from this part of the
Dominion."
Anti-British articles written over
the signature, "Costello," have for
some lime been appearing regularly
In ihe Free Press, a Detroit morning
paper.       '.
Costello claims to be a veteran of
the A.T2.F, thut served in Blberln, and
hiH_urlie.es teem with abuse of the
British command, which, he alleges,
counselled leaving Ihe wounded to
their fate. Further, he alleges had
the command of the forces been in
the hands of Americans there would
hnve  been  a  different  story  to  tell.
Great War Veterans along the border are angry, ndt so much with the
disgruntled soldier as with a newspaper len*l!iig ils columns to bis
rantlngs,
Costello is connected with the
Boman Catholic university In Detroit.

NBW YORK, July 31.—Operation*
on tho stock exchange today wero
governed almost wholly by the course
of the mon,cy market, rates for cull
loans of both classes rising to maximum quotations of many weeks. Call
money opened at 6 to 8H per cent, tin,
hlgh rate applying to the less desirable security, but just before the close
IR per cent was paid for loans on
mixed collateral and 20 per cent on nil
industrials.
The high rates of the date were
precipitated by the withdrawal of
funds to meet maturing obligations.
These include tho $100,000,000 Canadian loan and the American foreign
securities loan, both . falling due to-;
morrow.
With tlie exception of leather, paper
and food shnros, and a brief spurt iu
oils, the trend wns downward after tbe
first hour.
Selling was at its highest in the last
30 minutes, tbo reversal beginning
with steels and motors, where declines were from 2 to 6 points; rails
and   shippings   losing   2   to   3  points,

OPERATIONS TO START AT ONCE
TREATING WONDERFUL ORE
DEVELOPMENTS DUE IN SLOC
ON    BLUEBIRD — ALAMO    MILL
—SIDNEY   NORMAN   SAYS   GREAT
AN.
llcturnlng to Nelson yestorday from
a trip of several days through the
Slocan, Sidney Norman, editor of
Northwest Mining Truth, described an
important new ore body In the Silversmith mine al Sandon,'i.iinounced that
operations would be started on the
Bluebird, and referred to developments on the Ocean ami Sllverlte.
"On Monday night," said Mr. Norman, "li visited tlie Silversmith at
Sandon, and there saw tho best oro
body found in the mine since the sensational developments on No.' 8 level
over 12 years ago. At a point 30 feet
west of tho new raise from Xo. lo,
tho drift on No. S level showed 12
feet of ore, of which tour feet was
clean galena, and the balance the finest grade of milling ore. Since then.
I understand, the supposed footwall
has been broken through, and five feet
or oro exposed. If this ore shoot persists, us it gives promise of doing,
tlie mine should be able to produce
several carloads of erud oro during
AubuBt, besides a generous quantity
of concentrates.
Bluebird to Operate.
"Tuesday I visited the Bluebird
property, adjoining the lteco on Been
mountain, iu company with Eaiillyile,
representing Clarence Cunningham,
for whom 1 recently bonded the property, and In which 1 retain an Interest.
As a result ot this preliminary examination, operations will bo started
at oncc.and'l hope that another pro-
dticlng mine will be developed. Nothing of consequence has been done upon
tho ground for 13 years, owing to a
badly Involved title.
"Tlio Alamo mill, recently erected
by Mr. Cunningham, is doing splendid
work, running on Wonderful ore,Which

SCRU:iID   BY   SIDNEY   NORMA   N.
A new ore body in the famous
Rambler-Cariboo mine al. Three
Forks, with which the Jennie was
recently amalgamated, Is the big
feature in news coming in from tlie
Slocan. Word of the big strike has
been whispered around for several
days, but the first authentic statement was made yesterday by Sidney
Norman, editor of tbe Nortli west
Mining Truth, who has paid a visit
to the property, liming been tho representative of tlie Rambler interests
in the negotiations that brought
about the amalgamation.
"On Monday, in company with .Tas.
Anderson of Kaslo," said Mr. Norman, "I visited the TCamblor-Carilion
mine at Three Forks, and there
found one of the most interesting
developments at depth ever seen In
tho   country.     On   No.   9   level,   just
across the end line of the Jennie
Claim, which has just been • purchased
from George Alexander of England
thn -;h Mr. Anderson, a nine foot
vein has been exposed with four feet
of practically clean galena on tho
hanging wall, a two inch streak on
the foot wall and several smaller
slringers In between. No. 10 level lias
been carried along the side-line of
tho Jennie claim for ISO feet, showing an ore hotly from two to seven
feet wide. Sixty feet ahead of the face
of No. 10 a raise has been carried
up from No. 12 showing the same "fre*
hotly. Thus, lhe new ore body has
already been developed for a distance
of 220 feet on its strike and 150 feet
In  depth.
As is well known, the clean ore
bodies in tbe Slncrtn district are
'usually   found   at   tho   higher   levels
and I therefore have every confidence
tbat Rambler-Cariboo will develop a
splendid ore body, by development
work, whioh will now be carried on
in No. !t and No. 7 and levels above,
I might add that the ore body, aa
seen in the face of No. 12 and No,
10. gives every promise of perBibt*:

the boi Lorn of the sea by giant cut-
loflsh.
Neither can this be regarded as a
wild story, Monster cuttlefish abound
in tlie Southern seas. They rango
from nine to eighteen feet in length,
with arms or tentacles twenty to
thirty feet long, and one to two feet
in circumference. The power of these
monsters when aroused—for by nature they are timid and act on the defensive—is extraordinary, and cases
hitve been known of them rising out
of tlie water, winding their tentacles
around the hull and rigging of sailing
vessels and crushing them to matchwood.
In ilie ease of Ibc Cyclops, it is
potisiblo thai she may have been attacked by Several id' these mon-
Stera simultaneously and wrecked or
dragged to her doom. Or the disaster may have occurred through
the fish, with their powerful tentacles,
picking off the men, leaving tho vessel
lo drhe on the nicks of disaster.
WASTE FROM PAPER MILLS
MAY   BE   USED   IN   TANNERY
PHILADELPHIA.—Heretofore thero
has been no use for the bark which
is peeled from the logs preparatory
to making them into pulp, and as a
matter of fact the disposition of this
material has been a trial to the paper
manufacturer. Stored about the plant
it has been a fire menace, increasing
his insurance and consuming space
which might otherwise he made good
use of. The problem was taken in
hand by tbe officials of lh" forest
products laboratory, and, securing the
cooperation of a paper mill, a tannery
nnd the manufacturer of a drying machine, some elaborate experiments
were conducted witli ihe view of determining tlie tanning value of tills
material from 'he paper mill Which is
accumulating constantly at these establishments in all parts of the cniin-
try. The result wus thai it was definitely concluded that no great technical
difficulties stand in the way of utilizing paper mill hark for such purposes.
The product is satisfactory from tbo
tanners' standpoint, and it can be prepared at a cost which will allow il to
compete with leaf bark,
The use id paper mill bark for tanning means a source id' income for
tbi' paper mill from a material which
is now of little or no value. The tanner would be assured of a constant
supply of dried bark which would allow him to keep much less material
In stock, io reduce his firo hazard, and
to wipe out tin- depreciation ami In-
teresl charges which must be carried
against a yurd full of leaf bark. Tho
lumberman would avoid increasing
difficulties iu- obtaining satisfactory
labor foi Park peeling, and would do
away with the fire hazard and expenso
incidental lo lhe peeling and sisismi-
ing operations, all of *,vhlch combino
to make the production of leaf hark
an unsatisfactory business, even at

Mayor McDonald's announcement
t,1lhl Baker street Is to be paved With

Tt represents a big advance In the

Permanent streets will prove to be
a good investment for Nelson. They

fn spite of tho fact that it Is
getting late In the season for starting
now road construction, there is no
sign that tbe provincial government
proposes to tako advantage during
1919 of the Dominion government grant
for tho construction of highways.
The Dominion has offered a big
grant to this province to assist in
road construction, Ottawa pulling up
tho money on the basis of 40 per cent
to the province's (10 per cent.
Connecting links in the trans -provincial highway, roads to cornier t
Kaslo and tho Slocan wilh existing
highways, tbe Cascade road ann the
Ymlr road, could oil bo constructed
on this basis. A road costing JI0.00O,
for example, could be built with Dominion aid nt a cost to the province
of only |2-l,000.
Tbe specinl blanket appropriation
passed by the legislature last spring
would provide tho source for lhe funds.

To any one traveling from the western part of Cnilada to New York, for
instance, we would unhesitatingly
recommend the trip via Toronto and
Buffalo by the line of the Canada
Steamships, Ltd. The few hours' run
across Lnke Ontario makes a delightful change from rail travel, landing
one at Lowiston, New York—where the
eagle eyes of Uncle Sam's customs
officials are safely passed, If no attempt at smuggling Is made.

Niagara gorge and tho falls—justly
far-famed as one of the sights of tbe
continent—ha-h been commercial ^."cltr'
and capitalized to the fullest extent
by both Canadians and Americans.
This is shown by tho cheap hydroelectric energy distributed all through
that part of Ontario and New Vork
state—a blessing unmixed in Itself for
domestic, housewives, municipal and
Industrial purposes.
• ■ •   .•
Leaving the utilatarlan aside, however, and returning to the harmonious, the majestic and the beautiful,
tbo ride on the trolley, some 15 miles
from Lewiston to Niagara. N. Y., Is
to be long remembered. It was indeed
near to nature's heart. Tho double
track electric line was built for the
purpose of giving the sightseer the
most for his or her money, nnd tbe
fare, unlike many things one encounters in the east. Is not entirely a holdup. Frequently the train stope at
somo strategic point, with a vista of
the Whirlpool Rapids, or the Horseshoe Falls, tho "Mold of the Mist" or
or of the several great bridges spanning the swirling torrent.
They say that the trip Is a favorite one for bridal couples, and there
appeared to be several such on our
long train of electric ears. If they
did nut overlook anything in their
newly blissful state, they were witnesses to one of the grandeurs of nature that many travel thousands of
miles to wonder at. Unlike our visit
here of 24 years ago, one can now see
the "whole works" on both side of the
seething river from a comfortable electric car, tho lines having been built
with this purpose in view.

Buffalo, tho largest city in the
western part of New York state, Is
quickly reached hy high-speed trolley
from Niagara Falls, and like most
American cities was full of public
home-coming expressions to the thousands of boys tbat have been and arc
yet pouring back from France. The
refrain of "Put Me Off at Buffalo" Is
one that many have been only too
happy recently to echo.
• •   •
In Buffalo we began to note more
particularly—as we did to some extent
in Toronto—tbe Increasing use of the
one cent piece In merchandising establishments, showing that we had
fairly arrived In tbe eastern cent belt.
In the wild and woolly west the nickel
was until about war time the minimum
of financial exchange, even many
chartered bank branches not handling
pontiles to any great extent. With Increased living costs, however, brought
on by the sanguinary struggle there,
the humble cent gradually came further west for more common use and
thus Into Its own. Apparently it has
arrived to stay,

md could not resist comparing them
with those of the Kootenays and other
parls of British Columbia. Wo con
say, too. that the Kootenay apple orchards lost nothing hy the compar

seems to be that in the west tlie nils
lug of tipples has been reduced to an
exact science, while in tho oust thi
poinoluglcal output is more or less a
by-product of tbe average farmer.
Many farmers in Ontario and New

from the west and have taken more
care of their orchard.;, but they have
tbe cross continent freight haul from
thu Pacific orchards in their favor fa
vor and Ihey hnve a long way to go

orchards as one sees anywhere in the

bo well advised to continue tbe high
grade of fruit which they aro producing and shipping eastward.

that ovcry Influence would be utilized

Tho first parly, under Major Long,
left Cairo In December. The second
and third parties, owing to lhe dislocation of steamer traffic, bad to proceed via India, No. 2 party malting
for Mombasa and No. „ party for
Lourenco Marques (Captain Sbort-
rldge) and Cape Town. Tbe bases
wero reached about tho end ot December.
i\s far soulh as Khartum Major
Long's party had no difficulties; beforo the New Year the line to Khartum wns ready for use, and about
three weeks later Br.'gadlcr-Gcnoral
Herbert was flown thero In a Hand-
ley-Page machine. At Meroo an aerodrome was not cleared, that town being regarded merely as a flying boat,
stage. Aeroplanes would naturally follow tho railway, which cuts off the
loop of tho Nile, and proceed direct
from Wadi Haifa to Atbara.
South of Khartum, from nbout 13
degrees north lo Broken Hill, nbout
13 degree- south, lhe whole lino of
the country presents enormous difficulties. It was decided to form largo
permanent nerodromes at intervals of
from 100 to 000 miles and leave the
ntermedinto emergency landing
grounds until later, and the first big
station In this difficult country was
to bo, it possible, near Koiloli, 400
miles south ot Khartum. Kodok
(Pnshoda) is a native village on tlio
Nile, unhealthy and surrounded by a
huge swampy area. However, Mala-
kttl, somo 40 miles farther south, tbe
headquarters of the Upper Nile Provinces and a base ot the irrigation
department, offered facilities for nn
aerodrome on an open grassy plain
somo few miles to the east of tbe
river. This ispot tlle survey parly
adopted instead of Kodok.

distance of some 100 miles, the Nile

searched on suitable landing spot

building an elevated landing ground
wore made, but abandoned on account
of the cost. The only solution would
appear to lie In the use of the flying
boat, the river being of sufficient
width to allow of landing whatever direction of the wind.
By the Great Lakes.
Tho results of the expedition exploring Ibc country of the great lakes
is not yet to hand. About Zoka,
roughly midway between Qondokoro
and .liuja ,aro plains covered with
long elephant grass; lo the south it
Is more undulating, and covered witli
bushes, scrub and forest. In the rainy
season, from March to January, the
country is practically a swamp. In
tlio dry season if tlio grass were burnt,
it would become possible to land machines. About Jlnja Itself tbe country
Is swampy, broken nnd heavily wooded.
.'lying boats ean enslly mako the
Journey over Victoria Nyanza to
Mwanza. and Iher are plent of shot
tered Inlets niong the .coast which
cnnid be used as Intermediate sta
tlons. The chief drawback is the frc
quency und suddenness of severe
thunder storms, wilh gales and rough
water. The annual rainfall Is nbout
GO In. "Waterspouts frequently occur
durir.g ruin storms, and masses of
small lisccti sometimes rise out of
tho lake, having Iho nppeuralicc of
dense clouds.
Between Mwanza and L'jiji the country is good over a stretch of 300 miles,
UJIJI Itself Is in a swampy neighborhood, but a short distance awuy Is
open und grassy country. Hero un
aerodrome site can probably be found
without much dilflculty.
The country to the enst of Lake
Tanganyika is fairly suitable for aero
planes, but Kltuta, ut tho southern
end of the lake, was found by Capt.
shortridge's party to be unhealthy,
low-lying, swampy, and surrounded by
hills. It Is not suited us u stopping
place for aeroplanes, but Abcrcorn,
some 14 miles uway, Is a much better
locality, from Abcrcorn onwards the
country becomes impossible for fly
ing boats, and the host aeroplane
route is via Serenjc, across 410 miles
of country to the railway at Broken
Hill. This concludes tbo difficult por
ticu of tbe route.
It remains to ho seen what Major
Kiunion's party decides Is tho best
course, for all the alternatives arc to
be examined. A roundabout route,
east from Kisuinu to Nairobi and
thence over the rolling, open lands
west of lit. Kilimanjaro and south
along tho curt track to Dodoma is
over a diBtrict suited to ocrupianes
throughout. Tho cart track continues
through similar open country via lr-
lllga to Ncu L'tcngulc, Ikomba and
Al ercorn. This Involves a detour of
at least 400 miles, but It may make
possible tho uso of the aoroplano in
steud of tho flying bout.
Possible Flight in October,
Major Court-Treatt's parly, examining tbe southern sector, hud a rclu-
tively simple task allotted to them. It
appears thut the chlor difficultiesworo
tu chose aerodromes from the many
good sites which existed. In addition,
muny Smith African towns made requests that aerodromes Might be built
In their vicinity. This involved refer-
once to Cairo, and assent has generally
icon given to the proposal., An aerodrome hua been prepared nacr Juhan-
ncaburg.
A route in process of development
Is thut from Atbara to Trinkitut, on
the Itcd sea, und thence via the Kuril und Kumarun Islands to Pcrim
and Aden. This will probably be more
used fur militury than civil purpuscs,
but muy become u section of un ultor-
nativo route via Egypt and tho Arabian coast to India. Major Carr has
been responsible for tho survey nnd
preparation of Ibis route.
Until full reports of tho African
survey parties have been received one
cannot speak definitely about this
great air routo. It is probable that a
combination of flying boats and nero-
plunos will bo used at the start of tho
service. The rirst machine will probably be flown from Cairo to the Citpo
In October or November this year.
The first party, which bad the longest but ens'est stretch to cover, followed Iho courso of the Nile almost
throughout and were aided by that
river in tho transportation of men and
tores. Tho second party had a short
stretch over little known country! presenting Immense difficulties from
every point of view. The southern
party coverod a tremendous distance,
but followed the course of the railway nlmost throughout.
It\ wns intended thai each officer
should at once proceed to one or more
stations on tho route, and select an
aerodrome site. Ho was then to engage local native labor to elenr and
prepare the spot, advising the lender
of bis pnrty of the progress mudc.
Supplles of petrol and oil were carried so that the nerodromes might be
•cady lo receive aeroplanes as soon
as the sites1 were cleared. Each party
consisted of the leader, five lo eight i
olher officers, nnd less Hum 20 oilier
ranks, all chosen from tbe royal air
forco in the middle east.
The Route in Outline.
In tho orlglnnl Instructions tlie following were tho stations to bo Investigated. The route prepared [by
headquarters, middle east, has been
followed out und found very satisfactory.
No. 1 pnrty (commanded by Major
Long, D.S.O.)—Cairo. Asslut, Assuan,
Wadi Haifa,' Meroe. Atbara, Khartum, Kodok (Fashoda), Oondokoro,
Jinga, Port Victoria.
No. 2 party (commanded by Major
Kmmett)—Mwanza (south end ot Vic-1
torla Nynnzn), UJIJI, Kilnta. j
No. 3 party (commanded by Major
Court-Trcntt)— Abcrcorn (near Kit-1
uta), Broken. Hill, Livingstone. Salisbury, Buluwnyo, Palnchwe— Mafeklng
(or IClmborlcy-Prctorin), Bloemfon-
tcln, Beaufort West, Cape Town.
For convenience the southern party
was subdivided, Captnin Shortrldgc
being responsible for the route from
Abcrcorn to Buluwayol
The threo lenders of llie expedition
nre all acquainted with tbe work and
tho nature required. Major Kmmett
being a well known big game hunter
and Major Court-Trealt having shortly before tho war journeyed through
tlio Sahara to Timbuktu.
An alternative rout which was seriously contemplated, though for the
use of flying boats only, was the Nile
valley to Victoria Nyanza, nnd thence
by Tan_an.lHa._nd Nyansa to the Zambesi river and Quclimune. In I'urtu-
gucsc Unst Africa. Tbo voyage to
Cape Town would then have continued along the const. Kor various reasons this route wus abandoned. There
was nlso a suggested "Abyssinian"
route, already referred to In tbe Times,
and various minor alterations In the
main route.
Value  ef  the   Nile.
The reasons which led lu the adoption of the line so fur followed were;
(1) Tho vullcy ot tho Nile running
almost duo north and south forms an
excellent guide for the aerial navigation. It also provides means of
transportation, and nllows either
aeroplanes or flying boats to be used
as occasion may require. Also a rail
Way follows the Nile fur a great part
of 'the way. (2) The control portion
offers several almost equally bad a
ternatlvcs. Thut via. Luke Vivu is
the most direct, but the country between the chain uf great lakes is bush
and _wump, forming un Impossible
surface for either type of aircraft I"
use. The line cost uf Victoria Nyanza Is almost as bad, hut flying boats
could proccd dlroc' from Jlnja to
...wnnza. Thence ot UJIJI the country
consists of undulating grass-grown
plateaux, cultivation, forest and
swamp, hut a course over comparatively favorable country can probably
be drawn. (3) Tlie railway runs ulung
the greater part of tho southern section und the country is generally suitable for an aeroplane throughout.

guvrrnmout will In future submit all

This is the sort of cooperation that
is needed between Canada and tho
mother country. Until 1014 Canada
hnd exercised the same easy tolerance
lhat Britain bad toward those seeking
entrance to her shores. The war taught
us the unwisdom uf sueh luxness. Just
as it tnught the same thing to tho
United States and to Great Britain
hersolf. The "melting pot" Idea, In
Itself attractive enough, can be carried
too fur even in n nation of one hundred
millions. Tbe United iSlates found
this out wben the coming of war
aroused' deep-seated racial prejudices
wlilcb yield to "Americanization" hut
slowly, and tn a lesser degree the sumo
thing was true in Canada.
We are nniv expecting a great influx of immigration from across tho
Atlantic. AVe nre prepared lo welcome
these newcomers In proportion tn their
suitability to the country's requirements. Recent experiences have
shown the need of examining into this
,morc closely than we hnvo done In
the past. A grent Immigration la not,
In Itself, a desirable thing unless the
Individuals tlmt make lt up nro prepared to become good Canadian citizens. Some of those who have come
to Canada within Iho last (on yenrs
quite obviously were prepared for no
such Ihlng. A little more discretion

AN  INCIDENT IN  LONDON.
Tho   following   letter   to   Iho   editor
Stirt/niAfl
of   "Canada,"   London,   tolls   Its   own
story:
"Some days ago, while on leave In
London, f had an experience which
prompted the following letter to tbo
Editor of the Dally Hall:
Sir,—In-view of the number of
complaints mado regarding tbo
Incivility of London toxical) drivers, permit me, a stranger, to relate an astonishing experience
which befell me a few days ago.
I picked up a tnxleab in Chelsea and drove to tho Albert hall.
The driver wot*, unable to change
the ponnd I tendered in payment,
and I asked him to wait while I
got somo silver. To my amazement he lulled out, "Ob, that's all
right. Any time will do,' and,
putting up his flag, droVO away,
waving his hand genially as ho
went around lhe corner. The man
appeared lo be quite normal,

The sequel occurred yesterday, when
I received a letter of which the following is a copy:
Sir,™] read your letter in tho
Pally Mail today. When you havo
read this I think you will agree
tlmt. I am perfectly normal and
know exactly what I was doing
when I gav   you a free ride,
I wan In the H.15.F. from
March, 10l5, to September, 1918, j
and I came into contact with thousands of Canadian and Australian
officers during that time. Several
times they gavd mo cigars, cigarettes and—oh, tho superb joy!— i
on two or three occasions a drop '
of Scotch. Think of It, Sir, mo u
private—they were officers. I am
an Englishman with a memory.
I saw you were labelled "Canada";
my thoughts went back to tho \w?\
four years, and If you had wanted
me to drive you to Cnnada I would
have done so If 1 could afford it.
On my part it Is only Cidrt payment ou account for services rendered to mo by Canuck sand Aussie officers. So far as thi'.t furo Ih
concerned—welt,. "any old time

JELECTRICITY   IS   USED
TO  MEASURE  FLOW OF GAS
PHILADELPHIA.—Not  many   eleo-
(Jtric  central  station men  look on  tho
competing gas company as a possible'
,:prospective customer for electric heat-
ling service.    Nevertheless,  thoy  may
jwel) do so now that methods of nieus-^
"tiring filrg* quantities of gas olectr'i-
joglly havo been developed and proved
*"    over    lOo    practical   installations.
! These points waft* broughtout Recently by J. ('.'.''Wilsim, recently speaking
jofore a joints meeting of thu various
lectrieal engineering societies In Chicago.
The   meter   which   is   used   in   this
suring is built to tako advantage
ot  the   fact   that   the   heat-absorbing
apaclty of a standard unit of any industrial   gas   remains   essentially   the
same   throughout   all    the   variations
which may occur in practice.   In other
words, a given quantity of heat ap-
Ipjled    electrically    to    gas    flowing
(through a main will always raise the
.temperature of that gas to tho same
degree if the quantity of gas flowing
[la not varied.    The meter, however, i:
tworked   out  on   the  converse  of  this
^principle, so that the temperature rise
is always  two  degrees, and  hence  it
;Jis   only   necessary     to    measure   the
imount   of   electric,   current   used
cause this temperature riso to arrive

it a quantity which is measurable and
proportional to the gas flowing.
The apparatus that has been developed to carry out this .method consists
of the tfoljowing essential  parts:   (a)
heaW through  which  electric  current flows to warm the gas just two
degrees as it flows through tho meter
(b) thermometers on the entrance and
exit sides of the heater to Indicate the
rise  in  temperature;   (c)  a  regulator
to vary the heater current in accord
nice witli the variations in the rates
of gas flow so thnt it will always he
just enough to warm the gas two d.
grees, and (e) a meter lo measure tl
electrical  energy consumption   by  the
heater  in  warming  the  gas   two   de
grees.
The heater unit consists of splrnl
colls of niehrome resistance wire. In
stead of mercurial thermometers electrical resistance thermometers ar
used because they are extremely sons!
live and aeeunile . Automatic control
of the current which must continually
heat the gas two degrees as It passes
is accomplished through tho Use o
galvanometer connected in the thermometer circuit. This galvanometer
actuates a motor-driven rheostat wh'ch
controls the current. Tlie electrical
energy in the heater is measured continuously by a totalizing meter. This
is a watt-hour meter of standard construction, having a gear-train and dial
so arranged thnt the readings are direct in standard units uf gas.—-Philadelphia Enquirer.

THIN, FRAIL
FOLKS NEED
PHOSPHATE
Notlun(| Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate to
Put  on   Firm,   Healthy   Flesh   and
to   Increase  Strength,  Vigor
and Nerve Force
Judging from the countless preparations and treatments which aro cou-
tlimit!ty being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, U«-
veloplng arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by
ihe soft curved lines of health and
beauty, there are evidently thousands
of men and women who keenly feel
iheir excessive  thinness.
Thinness and weakness are imuaily
due to starved nerves. Our bodies
need more phosphate than is contained
in modern foods. Physicians claim
there Is nothing thai will supply this
deficiency so well as the organic phosphate known among druggists ns bitro-
phosphate, which is inexpensive and
Is soul by the Canada Drug & Book
Co. iu Nelson, and most atl druggists
under a guarantee of satisfactlou,/)r
money back. By feeding the nerves
directly and by supplying the body
cells with the necessary phosphoi lu
tood elements, hltro-phosphntc quickly produces a welcome transformation
In the appearance; tho Increase 'In
weight   frequently   being   .istonlshliig.
This increase In weight also carries
with it a general Improvement in th-)
health. Nervousness, sleeplessness
and lack of energy, which nearly always accompany excessive thinness,
soon disappear, dull eyes hecorno
bright, and pale cheeks glow with tlie
bloom of perfect health.
CAUTION;—Although bitro-phos-
pliate is unsurpassed for relieving
nervousness, sleeplessness and general
weakness, it should not, owing to Its
remarkable flesh-growing properties,
be used hy anyone who does not desire to put on flesh,

He stood on llie street,

today.
But they did not end
corns, and they do not now.

Modern scientists in the

In 48 hours, while the
corn is forgotten, Blue-jay

The way is sure. It is

s    Murray    After    Twelve    Years'
Professional Service, Praises

hnve   heen  a  trained  nurse   for
Ive  years,  and   huve  had a   great
I to do with medicines, but when
ernes to building a person up from
veak,   run-down   condition,  1  havo
r seen anything to equal Tanlac,"
Miss A.   i\l.   Murray,  who  lives
02 Warwick Block, Winnipeg, while.
Ing to a Tanlac representative the
Ir day.
Iss  Murray   sucessfully   practiced
profession In New York for eight
■s  before  coming  to  Canada  lour
■s ago.   She has been eipially
ilul   bore,   and   hor   services   are
lily In demand by lhe most wealthy
Influential people In tho city.
m   nursed  thirty-five  cases  of  In-
Wnza  last  winter,'1   continued   Miss
Irrny, "and 1 had to work night and
I almost, and  lhat  was too much
j me, and  pulled  me down  some-
^ig awful.   Finally 1 hud nn attack
, the ifi'u' myself, and after pulling
lough  tlmt, 1 was in an extremely
Ik, run-down condition.   1 was just
I'rly exhausted all the time, 1 wus
nervous, and  for the first lime
life, I was unable to sleep well,
would very often  lie in bed und
1 for hours,  trying to get sleepy.
1 was just so nervous and run-
n that I was actually irritable, and
most  trivial   things   would  upset.
My appetite left me entirely, and
were  many  days  when a  cup
l was all 1 could take at a meal
Jlno of my friends Induced me to
Tanlac, und ll certainly Is won-
IJ'ul  t..o way  lt  has  built me  up.
ly,   I   have  actually  gained  fifteen
'nds already, anil 1 have only taken
bottles so fnr. All that noi'VOUS-
i has left me and 1 sleep just like
Ihlld every night, and Hint tired,
Rusted reeling hus left me alto-
jler. In tact, 1 feel just line all the
ind 1 unhesitatingly recommend
I lo everybody. 1 never lose an
joilunily to advise people who ure
|k and run-down, like 1 was, to
Tanlac, for 1 believe It Is the
medicine they can get to build
In up. I. am sure that anybody who
'Tanlac a fair trial will feel Just
iht'nbout it—that it is a real medl-
| and can be relied upon to do Just
Jtt tlley say It will do."

BECOMING ACTIVE
May Be Several Fours on Water Shortly—May 'Hold Regatta Before
Season  Ends.
Thero is a movement on foot in
rowing club circles, state officials of
tho club, to get together as many
crews as possible among lhe younger
clement of the city who nro beginning
to show a keenness for that line
sport.
Owing to the lateness of tho season
for commencing active opcrutlons It
Is now Impossible, for the local clul
to accept the invitation of outside
clubs to lake part In their regattas
hut It is felt that here is somo ex
cellent material lo work on locally
if t,he boys will get out, and toward
the end of the season nn excellent
local regatta could he arranged.
T. D. Desbrisay, captain of the local
(larsnu-n, is expected tn take some of
the boys under his wing during the
coming week.
Several of the boys are practically
living down nt the club houso these
days and enjoying a run on the lake
morning and evening. Eddie Murphy
nnd Fred Grant are practicing steadily, while It Is expected that Capt.
George Paterson will he on the water
during his stay In town with his old
running mate, T. D. Desbrisay.
The local oarsmen had been invited
to take part in the Vancouver regatta
on August IB next, but It was found
impracticable and all plans will now
be laid with a vlow to an active part
In all regattas possible next year.
The boats nre all in splendid shape,
urordlng to those members of the club
who have been on the water this year.

LONDON.—In England the sensation of tho hour is the so-called
Walsh report, which is ono of tho
most damaglnb attacks upon Brltisli
rulo in Ireland that ever saw tho
light English officials and army
oftlcor- nro accused of most ot tho
serious crimes in the calendar from
murder >i, arson, the victims being
in all coses Sinn Feiners, men,
women e.i il children, Tho prisons
In which these unfortunates ure confined nre said to he unfit for caging
wild hensts. Trim by jury has been
abolished. Hundreds of men have
been In Jail for months without
knowing Ihe charges against them.
There Is an army of occupation
estimated at 100.00(1, and it Is treating Ireland worse than the Germans
treated Belgium. Tbe charges are.
ns a rule, of a wholesale character,
and lacking in details such as names
und  dates.
American Friends of Sinn Fein
The report wns written by Frank
1'. Walsh und Edward F. Dunne,
two prominent Irish-Americans who
were sent to Europe by a number of
Irish societies to further Irish Independence'. They tried to get tlie
cause of Ireland beforo tbe peace
conference, und sought in vain for
an interview with Lloyd George. Then
they nsked for passports tbat would
enable Ihem lo examine the Irish
question ul close quarters. Provided
with these they seem lo havo spent
most of their time in going from one
jull to another. Without passing an
opinion on the report, one might
suggest Hint if Ihe British government was willing lhat two such
avowed enemies us Dunne nnd Walsh
should inspect the Irish prisons il
did nol have u grent deal it was
ashamed to show.
Seventeen Grave Charges
The seventeen grave charges of tbe
report are us follows;
First—Within the lust few months
ut least ten citizens hnve heen killed
hy soldiers and constables under circumstances which, in a mnjorlty of
the cases, tbo coroner's juries found
to he wilful murder under the laws
of England. Ibe last tnan having been
murdered less than a month ago.
In nil these eases the perpetrators
of the crimes havo gone unpunished.
Second — Hundreds of men and
women have been confined for months
in the vilest prisons without nny
charges being preferred against them.
Third—At least five men have died
as n result of atrocities perpetrated
against them while in prison. Post
mortem examinations in some coses
disclosed marks of violence upon the
bodies.
Fourth—Prisoners were confined in
narrow cells with their hands handcuffed behind Ihem day and night.
In    Ibis    condition    Ihey    ore    fed    by
jull attendants, They ore permitted
no opportunity for answering the
calls of nnttlre and (ire compelled In
lie in their clothing, befouled by
human excrement fnr duys at a lime.
Fifth—Many persons aro confined
In cells which arc not large enough
fur one mnn. They are not. provided
with beds or honks of uny kind, but
are compelled lo sleep on hare floors.
There nre no toilet facilities, and
receptacles contain human offal which
lias necessarily accumulated upon tb
floors, where men ore compelled to
sleep  iii  filth  night ufter night.
Sixth—The food Is insufficient und
unwholesome, The prisoners, both
men and women, nre compelled to
live days upon waler and poorly
linked  sour,  stale   bread.
Seventh —Hundreds of men anil
women havo been discharged from
jail with Impaired constitutions, in
many _oases incurable invalids, as u
result uf their treatment.
Eighth—During part of the winter
and siiring streams or ice cold water
were poured over the men confined
In lhe Jails, und Ihey were compelled
lo lie all night on cold floors In unhealed cells In Ihelr wot clothing.
Many of them were afterwards removed to outside hospitals suffering
wiiii pneumonia.
Kidnapping  Children
Ninth — Policemen and soldiers
habitually are permitted to enter
cells where political prisoners are
confined anil heat them with Ihelr
clubs.
Tenth—Solitary confinement in ils
most horrible form has generally
been practised, Numbers of prisoners have been taken directly from
Jails to Insane asylums, rendered
maniacs  by  thoir treatment.
Eleventh—Large bodies of political
prisoners in certain Jails have been
kept without any food whatever for
duys nt a  time.
Twelfth—Tho right of privacy no
lunger exists in Ireland. Homes constantly are being invaded bv armed
men nnd the occupants, including
delicate Wornon und young children,
rnelly beaten and otherwise nml-
