DUST EXPLODES; ELEVATOR BURNS One Man Killed and Eight Injured in Catastrophe in Montreal MONTREAL, Dec. 1,—James Rurke was Instantly killed, and eight others were injured in an explosion and fire in grain elevators here this morning.

TUBERCULIN HAS COST PROVINCE MILKERS GALORE Thousands of Safe Cows Were Slaughtered, State Ministers NOW PHYSICALLY EXAMINE HERDS Agriculture Estimates Pass; Barrow Weed Policy Criticized VICTORIA, Dec. 1 — "The tuberculin tent has been a failure," Hon, W. H. Sutherland informed the legislature today, when the question of voting funds for fighting tuberculosis among cattle came before the house. Hea as Imaller Appropriation Hon. K. D. Harrow, minister of agriculture, announced that new methods of testing cattle for tuberculosis were to be adopted, and that a reduced ap- piopriatIon was therefore possible. .T. W. Jones asked where the pro- rrsed new metiiod had even proven a success, and Dr. E, J. Rothwell. New Westminster, stated that lt had been i-sed in Australia, Holland, New York state, Denmark, and other dairying countries with great success. Mr. Barrow stated the new method vas to make a physical examination of tbe cow, instead of relying on the tuberculin test. "We have been IfvtnR In a. false par- udise," declared Dr. Sutherland. A ralve VamUa* "It has been discovered that cattle with a small touch of tuberculosis In onp gland which does not ln any way affect the milk producing organs, will react to the tuberculin test, whereas cattle that are completely covered with it do not react to that test at all. We have been slaughtering "Mrou sands of animals which were perfectly safe milk producers, and passing over ollrern that are a r*»sl menace. Wo isHUined that the tuberculin t<-8t was infallble, hut we now find that n physical examination of the animal Is more reliable. The same applies to human beings." The estimates of the department of agriculture were voted by the house with very little contentious discussion. Xniltntes' Grants Opposition members protested at re- dUOtlons of from $9000 to $5000, of the votes for aid to Farmers and Women's institutes, respectively, contending that most of the remaining Vote would be eaten up in overhead with officials salaries and expenses. The reduction, if any. sliou'd come in overhead, instead of in the grants to the institutes, it was contended. Mr. Barrow said that the Institutes wished to develope a greater degree of independence. Reginald Hayward and J. W. Jones criticised the minister for not having sent his vole for noxious weed control last year. Mr. Jones contending lhat the government was not doing its duty. Mr. Barrow contended that education was all that could be done, but Opposition members urged that the [ government should assume responsible j Ity for cutting down weeds alona public highways, which they claimed were the sourc of most of the trouble. •Ontario Girl Shot by T/IMI/C llCCn TO Man She Turned Down IMIlf\OUoLU IU BEATRICE THORPE Pretty 17-year-old girl slain by Thomas Collison, whom she had refused to marry.

Thev were all very' fine people, most of the women com- j plaeently righteous in the possession Of two or three young children whom they truly adored and who wero' proof of their unassailable virtue. ! "Sol" Norn Lee snapped to her Inner resentment. She Was not shocked at the drinking or tho familiar ty. She was hurt to the heart that Richard, whom she liked. knowing what was going on, had assumed that she was clfKible for such a "party." Jane, Tom Graham's attractive gttett, waa a telephone operator in one of the big hotels, but she sat at Tom's table with tbe s-erenlty of his wife. So Nora Lee was made nn accomjd'ca In Tom's infidelity; she shared in this tricking of Bess, who was her friend. She was ready to cry at the offensive vulgarity of .staging such an affair In such a place. .lane, looking up 'nto Turn's face, whispered loudly: "What's the matter with Dickie's friend? Tell them to kftH and make up." ftichiird heard and laughed and was about to execute tho order when the portieres were suddenly drawn • nl a small, Impish figure In blue flannel palamaa, a top-knot of curly brown hair and rascally black eyes entered. The little fellow shrugged one shoulder, then the other and suddenly am'led wilh Ingratiating charm: "I'm coming In! I'm here!"

' Bees hnd gone off and left lltflo Tommy with bis father. And .lane,, th* guesi of the even ng, hail grn-, olously put the child to bed. Well, Xora Lee thought, It's nice to be I hroadmlnded. 1 Jane was now coaxing: "Vou go right up to bed or .laney'll never, never tell you another story." "Not ever? You mean what you say? Not even if my Daddy tells you to?" "N<"(t even then." Tommy wrinkled up his chin: "Gtt«tto I better go, then, hub? Flnk ] I better go?"

On the verge of tearH, she whispered; "1 suppose he's deeply hurl!" •She felt us though her eyes were sticking out of her head. She kept them wide open and strained her cheeks against the cold glass because she found it distressingly hard to breathe. Presently «he sank back with a sick weariness nnd refused to think—-a damn world and that's all there was to it! Hhe went cautiously into the house to get the taxi man his fare. When »he~ returned the cab was gone. Richard was standing at the door. "I paid his," he said soberly. "I'm sorry, Nora Lee. I'm quite Bober and I'm very norry." He didn't look at her, but walked down the j steps. I She remained, limp and staring as Ptandlng of light and happ nests. And Instead, here it was—confused, messy, trifling—poor little human hehiRH with their pigmy imaginations; wealthy in leisure and money; bankrupt in capac ty for satisfying unci enduring joys. She wondered bow the world had gone on so lonu In this flat, commonplace routine—jlrinking; insincere, smug love- mak int*;. How was lt meant no on" marked out new, Inspiring, magnificent ways to live? Where were the dar ng joys; the glowing, vital pleasures one had a risht to expect? She went into her room and turned on the shaded light. On Saturday she shared the room with Sally. Sally was now asleep, her figure contorted so that sh" look up three- quarters of the bed. Her hands were clasped under her bright hair. But even in sleep tbere was the intense, eager expectance marking her aggressive features. Sally though c "liie was cheating ber! Poor Hal! But let her anticipate s nee there was nothing to enjoy. Have the expectation, anyway. The next afiernjon a great basket of lilies of the valley came from Nora Lee accepted them coldly.

She was capable of taking care of herself. He met her by a deliberate accident on his part a week later as she was having lunch alone. She assured him that she hud no hos- til ty. He smiled, the small, winning eyes sober: "I'd prefer hostility, Nora Lee, to contempt." "Well—you went there knowing what to expect. That's all right If you want lt. But you might at least have given me a chance to say it I wanted to be a member of such a party." "Yes, I should. I was la a reek- less mood. I wanted the moon, I suppose" She drew a tired sigh: "That's why I'm so disappo nted. 1 feel as though lire were turning stale under my very eyes. I had an idea that traveled people like you really did want moons and really could grab them from lire. But all you want is gooey Insipidity—-I guesa that's all there Is"— His cheeks redd-ned: "No. I don't want gooey insipid ty. And thal's not nil there is." She laughed: "You think 1' worth my while to stjek further? was about to—well, I don't just know what"— Richard kept his eye* down but tbe flush went staining to his temples.

DECEMBER 2. 1H2I Financial Institutions See Period of Prosperity United States financial 1b- r titutions are more than usually cptimistic concerning con- I'ition?. In a statement just issued, the National Bank of Commerce in New York, deal- Mg'with the American situa- lon which is bound to react favorably in Canada, says: "All signs point to a long period of activity ahead. Industry has been steadily picking un since midsummer but only lately has the psychological basis for prosperity been established. The factors underlying improvement have been rvident for some time—an exceptionally sound credit structure, easy money, satisfactory returns to agriculture generally ?nd the remarkable good fortune of the wheat belt in particular, a sustained construc- t'on program, a tremendous volume of goods moving on the railroads and increasing output from month to month in many lines of industry. Until now there has remained a spirit of hesitancy about the future which the clearing of the political atmosphere has served to remove. "The recent elections in the United States and Great Britain have assumed an importance to the course of business not ascribed to them before the event. In both countries a conservative victory bad been generally conceded. In neither had the sweeping gains actually made been regarded as among the possibilities. A long- prevailing and ineffective condition of divided power is now replaced by e'ear conservative control in both administrative and legislative branches of the governments of the two countries. Political events do not in themselves make good or bad business, but freedom from uncalled-for governmental interference is certainly a factor of great importance in pro- rioting business progress. Deferred business programs will now be put into execution. • "The railroads are a case in noint. For years their affairs have been subjected to legislative meddling in the alleged interest of the public. The mere prospect of not being hampered in working out their own salvation is more than could have been anticipated a few weeks ago. There is little doubt that the railroads will *ake advantage of the breathing space to consolidate their finances and to undertake deferred programs of physical betterment. Railroad expenditures will contribute heavily to sustained business activity." TOMORROWS MENU Breakfast urangea Broiled .s! l*op-Ov«ra Cenal ni Ham i'ulfV. IVaim COOkl!

TURN HAIR DARK WITH SAGE TEA that "business generally in Canada is unsatisfactory, but with some bright spots." "That general trade is dull, to put it mildly, is no delusion." Sir Frederick said. "Many of' our industries are running on half time, with diminishing profits or no profits at all. Taxation Is heavy to an extent which discourages new enterprises. The cost of living is high, and our population In point of mimbeVH *ls at a standstill or worse. These are the conditions as I see them, but I hope and believe will emerge from our difficulties presently." Sir Frederick referred to tbe acquisition of the Molson's bank by the Bank Of Montreal in enthusiastic terms. declaring that it would greatly facilitate banking has i news, particularly in Quebe**- and Ontario. The general manager announced that commercial loans in Canada, of Canadian banks, were $100.1)0(1,000 less than a year ttgo, and this, he said, was "(matter of national importance.

Sir Vincent said be was satisfied that general conditions were improving, and he prophesied bright things from a business point of View in ihe future.' He said- that lhe post year had shown a better demand for steel in various forms, especially from railroads, that other titles were gradually recovering- from tli- slump, and that dealings in hides and leather had broadened. Foreign Trade Growing Figures nf Canada's foreign trade, he remarked, were encouraging. In the twelve months prior to October 31, the aggregate value Of this commerce was 11*0,000,000 greater than in the previous year. This, said Sir Vincent, was attributable In no small degree ty the enormous grain crop of 1323. Flour products had always been the largest contribution to Canadian export trade. The other outstanding commodity of export trade wan forest products, In the seven months ending October II, shipments of wood and pulp products, including paper, declined in value about $18,000,000, as compared with the previous year, thla decrease occuring in lumber, nnd not in paper.

CANADIAN GIVEN MONTREAL BOUT New Yorker Claims Foul, but Physicians Do Not Sustain Claim MONTREAL, Doc. 1.—Clovls Durum, Canadian flyweight champion, waa awarded a techlnal knock-out Extra Period VANCOUVER, Dec. 1.—By a score ! of 5 bonis to 4. Kdmonton Eskimns tonight annexed first lienors In the Western Canada Hookey league rlumntmitiiD race by mntchlng victory from the 1o?al Maroonn In the opening game of the western hockey season here, before' a big crowd of fan**, und after nearly 20 minutes* overtime play. Two Second*-- to Sparer Only two wounds sp-pnialed Vancouver from an even break with the Eskimos, the offlc al time of the wlnn'ng coun'er being given ut J 9:58. Briden scored on a pasi* from Simpson following a. three- man rush. The score fairly Indicates the play. During the overtime period a heavy fog covered the Ice, and gave both goalies a f ne opportunity to show their wares. Edmonton opened the scoring lu the first, period in four minutes through Simpson, who was followed five minutes after by Sheppurd. The visiting Eskimos used their superior we ght to advantage during the period, and Vuncouver waa only able to register one counter when McFarlune scored, assisted by Duncan. The opening of the second period found the Maroons with a slight advantage, which they used in evening up the score. The visit org came back with a series of three-man rushe**, and scored two goals In rapid succession, both of the hockey var'ety, though the Vancouver goal-tender was rained with shots. Morrison's goal resulted from a bouncing puck giving Reed no chanco to save. Sub Goal-Tender Charlie Reed, substituting for Lehman, was badly off, but after allowing two shots to pass him he tightened up und played a sterling game. Stuart, in the visitors' net. was called upon to stop equally hard shots, but not so numerous. The third per'od opened with both teams using their weight to advantage, Vancouver opened up with a series of rushes, but the opening defence held them close to the blue line. Simp*son. for the visitors, time and again brought the 7000 people in attendance to their feel with his spectacular mie-man rushes, but fa led to find the net. Both loams then tried long range shooting, but without effect, and finally Arbour stick-handled his way right down the ice to tie the score. Fog Over tlte I«e In the overtime the Eskimos1 initiated a series of three-man rushes, only to be beaten at tho net by Reed in splendid form. The heavy fog prevented both goalies froti seeing the puck till it was nearly on them. Vancouver sharpshooters tested the visiting goalie time al'tc* time, but very often their nets WPre high or wide. Simpson m'ssed an open goal shortly before ths deciding score. Then came the Pinal rush, when Simpson passed to Briden on the left wing within 10 feet of the goal, nnd Reed was given no chance to save. Summary Flrst period—1, Edmonton, simp- aon, 4:45; 2, Edmonton, Shepherd, i»:27; 3, Vancouver, MeKarlune, from Duncan, 1.23.
