The existing\nrates, now being attacked, are tfcitfl\nupon Canadian National mileage from\nEdmonton to Vancouver; and, as this\nmileage Is 124 miles greater than\nthe distance from Calgary to Vancouver, and the Calgary and Kdmonton rates are equal, 12t miles\nhnve been added to the ***&ajnfl employed in fixing westbound rates from\nC.P.R stations east of Calgary.\nA brief reply to the criticism of\nthese rates was made by A.

The whole machinery of the league had been held\nup; partly for the entrance of Germany. He laid stress on this point,\nbecause much of what had been said\nand written was due to a misunderstanding that this problem had been\npostponed until Germany's entry and\nhad unavoidably to be discussed whei\n^ny, alteration was made In the composition   of   the   council.\nThe minister would discuss no Individual claim, but desired to submit a\nview which bad received too little attention.

Salaries at Essondale\nhospital ranged from $2000 for assistants up\" to |<500 for a superintending\nphys'clan per year, it was pointed out\nH\u00bblson   Controversy   Quoted\nThe recent controversy ln Nelson between the health officer and the school\nboard was alluded to ln reference to\nthe wide powers Invested in the medical health officer. He could issue mandates and enforce sanitary measures\nthat a nurse could not deal with.\nPrior to the meeting of the civic\nbodies, delegates from the I.O.D.E. prevented arguments favoring a nurse,\nadvancing the need for education in\nhygiene in the homes, and for adolescent children. They believed a nurse\nWould follow up school reports on a\nchild's health and physical defects with\ninformation and advice, to the parents.\nA nurse with or without a doctor was\ntheir ultimately Implied desire.\nMen Favor  Officer\nDelegates from the workmen's committee of the smelter, representing\nroughly 2000 men and their families,\ndeclared the men supported appointment of a full-time medical health officer after getting'the men's opinion\non  It.\nDelegates from East Trail Ratepayers' association also favored a full-time\nhealth officer. They declared services\nof a man were needed to enforce sanitation In East Trail. They were opposed to a half-time officer as being\nunsatisfactory and little improvement\non  the present system.\nAt no stage was the Idea of employing a nurse discredited, however.\nIt ^as supported by eomft members of\nthn civic bodies In addition to a doctor.

FEBRUARY 24, J020\nNelson's Disgrace\nNelson's so-called \"isolation\nTwpital,\" a dilapidated bungalow of jail antecedents, sandwiched in between a blacksmith\nshop and a tinsmith shop, on a\nttreet of heavy traffic, having\nno open-air facilities, and capable of use for only one children's malady, is no more of a\ndisgrace in 1926 than it was\nin 1920, say, or any other year.\nBut it was a disgrace, and is\na disgrace, and has been a disgrace to the city of Nelson all\nthe time.'\nThe wretched \"shack,\" for\nthe purpose for which it is compelled to do duty, has no ad-\n\"nirer, hasn't even a defender,\nprobably in the whole city.\nNelson, undoubtedly the best\nsituated financially of any municipality in British Columbia,\nproportionately, can coop up\nunhappy scarlet fever kiddies\nin this sunless and viewless\nplace.\nBut it hasn't any provision\nfor isolating children with\nmeasles, except by the method\nof quarantining homes.\nIt hasn't any provision for\ntreatment of diphtheria cases,\nshould there be an outbreak.\nNow, at last, as the present\ncity medical health officer for\nyears has warned, the city's\nimmunity from smallpox has\nbeen infringed, and again there\nis no provision, except home\nQuarantine, for treatment.\nIn a couple of weeks, whether\nthere are to be more smallpox\nrases or not from the various\nLnown exposures will be apparent. Should there be more\n''ases, the city has no facilities\nfor collective treatment.\nThere has never been any\ngood excuse for the kind of\n\"isolation\" accommodation N3I-\nson has had to put up with.\nThere is not the shred of an\nexcuse now.\nThe city council of 1926 is\nexpected by the citizens to solve\nthe problem of giving proper\nand reasonable isolation accommodation. Conflict of views, if\nthere should be a conflict, isn't\ngoing to excuse lack of action.\nSome reasonable consensus of\nopinion must be reached, and\ncome progressive action taken.\nThis is a matter which the 1926\ncouncil ha3 inherited from its\npredecessors. It is doubtless\ngoing to have the honor of solv-\ni'i<? it. It is either that, or the\nodium of not solving it, that it\nwJU earn.\nAUNT HET\n\"I ain't Kneakln' as a rule, but\none nlKht when it wa. awful\ncold I kept my underclothes on.\"\nThe hard part Is to be good mannered while putting over the idea\nthat you're Important.\nIn those wicked old saloon dsyt,\nyou never heard of a reapectable\ngirl   getting   drunk.\nIt might help some if Billy Sunday\nhad some advance information about\nthe kind of coat used  clown there.\nLife is that way, too.

H\nis not difficult lo make lender, crisp\npastry. Only two things are essential\nfor pe feet remits: a good recipe and\na very hot oven. If you Use a fahien-\nhelt oven thermometer, have its mer-\n\u2022ui y at j.'.t) deg; ees when you put\nthe pastry Into t (no ma tier won\nkind of pe or dumpling you are\nmaking). Then, after Ibid intense\nheat lias \"yet tbe crust\" so that the\nfilling will not sink Into it. reduce\n-he oven temp^ratute according to the\nkind of filling. Egg filling, for instance, requires a medium oven tso\nthat It will nol bubble up and\n\"whey\"); fruit filling will stand a\n500 oven throughout the baking period.\nTo mike the dumpling; pastry dough\nsift one and one-third cups of pastry\nflour with one-fourth teaspoon of sait.\nMany women add a pinch (perhaps\none-fourth teaspoon) of baking powder to their pastry, \u00a3ind there is no\nloubt about its making pie crust\nlighter. You may add a pinch of\nIt to this recipe if you wish, although\nIt is not absolutely necessary. Cut\n'nto this flour-mixture one-third cup\nof leaf lard. To do this, use two\nknives held together so that the flat\nif the blades are touching, and work\n'Ik* a pair of scissors. Do not try\nfo cut every tiny crumb of lard into\n'he   flour.\nNext, add one-half cup of cold\nwater, mix to a stiff dough, and turn\n'bis put onto u lightly-floured bread\nboard If you have one of the en-\nunel-lopped kitchen tables, you may\nif course use this In place of a bread\nboard. W'th a rolling pin slightly\n'Inured, roll to one-third inch in\nthickness., Now dot with on?-third\n\"up of butte\" broken In smalt bits.\nSprinkle over with one-fourth cup\nit flour. Fold in from either side.\n\u00bbn as to form a long roll. Double\n'his roll in the middle. With 8\nlharp knife, cut it into three equal\nparts. Each of these three parts\nshould be rolled out into as nearly a\nj oarfect square as possible. On each\n| square place a very large pared and\ncored apple. PUl , the cavity; with\nfranulated sugar, sprinkle with ground\ncinnamon, and draw up the four\ncorners of the pastry-square. Press\ntight together and put the three\nlumplfnga (with gathered corners\nlownwardt on a pie pan. Slip the\noan Into a very hot oven, reduce\nkntnperature slightly, and let bake 30\n\u2022nlnutes.

Mathews\nw4s herself Shot), who had\nt*f*-tt the deceased Lyonnais alive at\nabout tf:*9 p.m. and whose statements show that she' had  left them\nable   by   Miss 'Younge   was   on   the\nTuesday following the  Inquest.\nDr. Mackenxie, the coroner, Informed me that whilst the jury waa\nout considering its verdict, Mr. Cameron StDenis came to him and informed him that ,Mjss Younge had\nstated that Mrs. Mathews had made\ncertain statements to her. on her\ndeathbed, which might, to Borne extent, contradict previous statements\nmade by the deceased Mrs. Mathews.\nHer Evidence Confirms\nHere, again, I am satisfied thnt\nhad the coroner deemed it advisable\nto place Miss Younge in the box, her\nevidence, together with the evidence\not the Rev. Mr. Larmonth, would\nhave still further convinced the jury\nthat the Case was a clear cut one\npf \"murder and suicide.\" (See statements of Miss Younge and Rev. Mr.\nLarmonth, attached).\nTo my mind, any statements made\nby Mrs, Mathews immediately prior\nto death would have to be treated\nwith a great deal of caution as, undoubtedly, the patient had an extremely high temperatu*^ nnd. judging from Miss Younge'a statement,\ndrugs and stimulants were frequently administered; so that I think lt\nIs Bate to assume that the patient\nwas in a semi-delirious state at the\ntime.\nMrs. Mailiew'n Mode ot Life\nQuestion       No.       6.\u2014Was       Mrs.\nMathews run out of town before?\nAnswer No. 6.\u2014Chief of Police Long informs me that Mrs.\nMathews was. in hb. opinion, a very\nloose character and he had, therefore, cautioned her several times regarding her mode of life. The chief\nwas unable to secure sufficient evidence to have criminal proceedings\nInstituted and would, consequently,\nnot be In a position to order her out\nof town.\nQuestion No. 7.\u2014Why was\nthe rifle disturbed and also the body\nof  the   deceased   Lyonnais?\nMoved Klflc from Dolph'e Reach\n\u25a0 Answer No. 7.\u2014Sergt. Stewart's statement on this point Is\nthat after his arrival he noticed the\nhead and arm of the deceased Lyonnais move. The rifle was lying\nbetween the arm and the body and\nthe sergeant, ln view of the worn\nan's statement that Lyonnais shot\nher, deemed it advisable to take the\nrifle out of hia reach, fearing that\nLyonnais might still be ln a condition to do  harm.\nFrom the nature of the wounds,\nIt would appear that Lyonnais must\nhave died Instantly, but the statement that the head and arm moved,\nin ail probability is correct, but the\nmovement only represented a reflex\nof   the    muscles.\nThe sergeant gives a further reason that, as the body Was lying ln\nthe doorway between the kitchen\nand the sitting room and as he\nwished to enter the kitchen, he was\nunable to do so without tramping\neither on the body or on the rifle.\nThis is a further reason for having\npicked   up   the   weapon.\nHad there been no direct evidence\nthe sergeant would, in all probability, have exercised more care In\ndisturbing either the body or the\nweapon.\nl'iulwtakcr  Burned  CTothefl\nQuestion      No.      8.\u2014Why      were\nnot the clothes of the deceased Lyonnais   preserved,   Instead   of   being\nburned  by the  undertaker?\nAnswer No. 8.\u2014During an\ninterview with Mr. Matkln, who had\nforwarded the petition, the latter informed me that it had been reported to him on reliable authority that\nChief Long had ordered the destruction of the clothes, after the inquest.\nIf this were true, then it was quite\nobvious that the chief of police was\ndeceiving me In my investigation, as\nhe had already informed me that\nthe .undertaker had burned the\nclothes   without   his   knowledge.\nI had the undertaker come to my\noffice and, in the presence of Mr.\nMatkln, he made the statement that\nnot only did the chief of police not\ninstruct him to destroy the clothing\nbut, immediately after the inquest,\nhad rung him up to tell him to\npreserve them; hl\u00a7 reply to the chief\nbeing that he was too late as the\nclothes had already been destroyed,\nbeing in such a mesa of blood and\nfilth that he did not like to have\nthem around the premises. -\nPowder Marks\nRome comment exists owing to the\nfact that powder marks were found\non the body of the woman, whilst\napparently none appeared on the\nbody of the deceased Lyonnais. To\nmy mind, this condition of affairs\ndoes not reVeal anything inconsistent with the verdict brought ln by\nthe jury. I am not an expert on\nthese matters, but it seems feasible\nto me that powder marks would\nappear on the body ot the woman as,\naccording to the evidence, she was\nfired at at close range. It may\nwelt be that in turning the gun\non himself, the deceased. Lyonnais^\nwaa forced to press the muzzle of .the\ngun haid up against his chest in\norder to reach the trigger and this\nmay account fur the tact that no\npowder marks were found on him.\nU,r. McKay, Who performed the\npost mortem, states that the wound\nat the point of entry had the np-\npearanc? of being seared, and, furthermore, powder marks may have\nappealed on the shirt, but tiiese, to\na great extent, In my opinion, would\npe obliterated by the_ pinnn-ive flow\nof blood from the 'wound, which\nhad severed at) large arteries.\n'\"Oraring; Jtpiiuy\"\nQuestion a\\o. ]\u00bb.\u2014What possible explanation can be given for the\nstatement attributed to Mis. Mathews\nby Miiis lounge that \"1 could clear\nDunn>. but\u2014\" and who does \"Dun-\nny''   refer  to?\nAnswer No, I.\u2014It Is quite appar.\nent that the name \"Dunny\" referred\nto Dolphin Lyonnais, the deceased,\n1 have already  referred  to the pus-\nMr.\nment should be taken In conjunction!\nwith the other statements made to\nNurse Younge and Rev. Mr. Lar- \\\nmonth, embodied In their statements.\nTraveler Didn't Take Her Home\nQuestion No. 10.\u2014Was the press\nreport of February 1, stating that\none of the travelers had taken Mm.,\nMathews home at 11:30 p.m. investigated, In view of the previous\nstatement in press report, that Mis.\nMathews had been taken home by\nLyonnais.\nAnswer No. 10.\u2014Neither jot the\nstatements appearing in Tno Daily\nNewa of February l, are correct. Investigation Clearly shows that Mrs.\nMathews went home In company\nwith Miss Newell, In Douglas Oum-\nmlnB' car.1 at about 6:00 p.m. Nor\nis there any evidence forthcoming\nthat Mrs. Mathews was ever again\ndown town. It ls clearly proved\nthat the gentlemen from Spokane,\nreferred to. left the Hume hotel ht\nabout 10:00 p.m., going to the boat.\nOfricers of the boat will prove that\nneither of these men left their roonw\nuntil taken off early on Su ndny\nmorning by Chief of Police Long.\nNo Car Left House\nQuestion No. 11.\u2014Was the report\nInvestigated regarding the alleged\nleaving the house where the tragedy\noccurred of a car, between the time\nof' the reported shooting and th^\narrival   of   the   police?\nAnswer No. 11\u2014Investigation\nshows that cars were seen in the\nFairview district that night, but had\nno connection with the crime, as\nIndependent evidence of two persons\nls forthcoming proving that the house\nwas under close observation by\nneighbors from the time the shooting occurred until Sergt. Stewart was\nseen bursting in the door, and\nneither car nor person left the\npremises during  that time. ,\nQuestion No. 12.\u2014What did Mrs.\nMathews say to Rev. Mr. Larmonth\njust prior to her death?\nAnswer    No.    12.\u2014Please    bc6\nLarmonth's statement, attached.\nHouse  Unguarded  but  Locked\nQuestion    No.    IS.\u2014Is    there    any\ntruth   in   the   report  that  the   house\nwas left unguarded after the tragedy\nand previous to  inquest?\nAnswer No. 18.\u2014The premises were\nIn charge of the police until 8:00\nduring which time a careful\nexamination of the scene was made.\nThe chief of police himself locked the\npremises carefully, and on returning\nat 11:80 ft. m., with the coroner's\njury, found the premises still carefully locked. He also state* that\nthe premises were carefully locked\nuntil the time of rijy investigation\non Wednesday, February .18. S\n.The evidence of one person, produced by Mr. Matkln, stating that he\nwas tn the premises on Monday, \\t\\\nentitled to very little credence, as\nwhen questioned In the presence of\nMr. Matkln, he stated that the blood\nwas all in the slttingroom and thaf\nthe kitchen was in an orderly condition; whilst, as a matter of fact,\nthe kitchen-at the time of my. jh?\nvestlgation was like a shambles and\nonly a few isolated spots of blood,\nwhich had been apparently carried\nby the feet of some person walking\nthrough the blood in the kitchen.\nwere  In  the Bittlngroom.\nProbably Only Three Shots\nQuestion No. 14. \u2014 Has it been\nclearly explained why, in view of the\nreported four bullet holes in the\nhouse, only three empty shells were\nfound?\nAnswer No. 14.\u2014Sergeant Stewart\nwas with me on tbe premises when\nInvestigating and illustrated the position which Mrs. Mathews said she\nwns In when shot. Corresponding\nwith,the direction the shot took, were\ntwo apparent bullet holes an inch\napart,, on the window casing, three\nfeet seven inches from the floor.\nCareful examination of these holes,\nhowever, discloses the tact that only\none bullet had struck, going through\nthe wall and Its course being traced\nto where it had struck a branch of a\ntree In the ftarden. I was satisfied\nthat the second hole In the window\ncasing was made by the steel Jacket\nof the bullet becoming separated in\npassing through the woman's abdomen\nand this making the other hole In the\nwindow casing. My assumption, I\nthink, was proved correct by the fact\nthat this steel jacket had been found\nby the coroner In the second hole in\nthe window casing nt the time of the\nlntter's investigation.    - i\n\"Damned Business\" an Error\nQuestion No. IB. \u2014 Does Nurse\nYoungp's statement bear out the statement in The Nelaon Daily-News attributed to Mrs. Mathews, when the\nlatter is alleged to have told the\nnursp that she did not tell the police\nall thnt she knew, did not have to\ntel), and that lt was none of their\ndamned business. -\nAnswer No. 15.\u2014Please again refer\nto Nurfft Younge'a statement on this\npoint.\nIn my opinion, The Nelson Daily\nNews reporter, when reporting the\nmatter, had.attributed a statement to\nMrs. Mathews, which was. in* reality,\nthe nurse's own expression.' -.In-this\nI am referring particularly to the\nlatter part of the statement, where\nit is alleged that Mrs. Mathews\nhad said thai \"It was none ot their\ndamned business.\" I am of the\nopinion that the newspaper^ in using\nfhe words \"none of their damned\nbusiness.\" was ouoting a comment of\nMiss    Younge    herself.\nAlleged Party\nQuestion No. 16.\u2014In whnt condl\ntlon W'18 the room in the Hume\nhotel\" on January 30. In which the\nnarty had taken place, and was thlr\nInvestigated?\nAnswer No. W,\u2014Investigation\nshows that nothing untoward hap-\noened In the room on January 30, and\nf anything of a disorderly nature\noccurred, this happened on the previous Friday, when there was no\nconnection between the deceased and\nthe Hume  hotel.\nNe Need to Guard Dying Woman\nQuestion    No.   17.\u2014Was   Mrs.    Ma-\nthnws placed under arrest and. If so.\nwhv was she left unguarded at the\nhospital?\nAnswer No. 17.\u2014T do not think the\noollce had any reason whatever to\nMace Mrs. Mathews under arrest,\nnor.

B.C., and\nstaying .with the late (Mrs.) Agnes\nJane Mathews, who resided in a house\nat Gordon road, Fairview, Nelson. I\nspent practically all the day of Janu\nary 30, 1926. in Mrs. Mathews' com\npany. We had our supper at hohift\n(Mrs. Mathews and myself) at about\n6 p.m. I went alone to a dance at ths\nMarket hall, leaving Mrs. Mathews at\nhome. This was the las! time I saw\nMrs. Mathews alive. During the afternoon of January 30 Mrs. Mathews and\nmyself spent two hours with two men\nwho came from Spokane, Wash., U.S.\nA. I had'met both these men before\nat a dance in the Market hall on Friday night, January 29, 1926. We went\nup to a room and we all drank some\nbeer there. Mrs. Mathews, myself and\nthe younger man went into another\nroom, and I stayed about five minutea,\nand then left to have my hair cuL\nThis all happened ia the Hume hotel.\nNelson.\n_X>lph oame ta After tapper\nI Went back to the hotel after having my hair cut and they were still\nin the room alone. I could see that\nthey had been drinking liquor. I was\naway for about one hour. We then\nwent home to subper. Afterl Supper,\nat about 6:30 p.m., Adolph Lyonnais\ncame- In. He talked to both Mrs.\nMathews and myself. There was no\nquarreling or arguments of any sort.\njust general conversation. LyonnaU'\nmanner was the same as lt always\nwas. This was the last time I saw\nAdolph Lyonnais alive. Then I left\nMrs. Mathews and he alone together\nwhen I went to the dance. I have\nknown the late Mrs. Mathews since\nlast September and Adolph Lyonnais\nfor about two months and since I have\nknown them I have never known them\nto quarrel. I am 17 years of age.\n.

I then\nsaid, \"Oh, he hadn't threatened tc\nshoot you,\" and she replied, \"He hadn t\nthreatened to shoot me, but he threatened me.\" The Way she spoke gave me\nto understand she was afraid of him.\nAfter that I left her for about iO\nminutes.

Roofing\ncosts ure high, and the builder cannot\nafford to overlook this item when\nplanning his home.\nIn the second place, the bungalow\neats up land an cuts down on back\nand front yard Space. A larger lot is\nnecessary for its construction than in\nthe case  of the two-story house.\nAnother Important en ii si deration is\nthe fact that the resale value of ii\nbungalow Is lower than that of a regular bouse of the same building cost.\nThe two-story structure looks like \"il\nwhole lot more for the money\" and\ntho seller may meet difficulty when\nho tries   to dispose of bis bungalow.\nThrough advertising, however, this\ntype of house ban been popularized. It\nis built and bought largely lo avoid\nrunning up and down stairs.\nCalifornia bungalows, it must be\nsaid, have been so well worked out\nand adapted to the needs oT the people\nthat thev 'ire largely free from the\nabove disadvantages, but the ordinary\nsuburban bungalow Is often overestimated as to its value.\nDECLINES NOTED\nIN MONTREAL TRADE\nBrazilian   Sells    to   Hi#h   but\nLoses   Out;   Smelters,\nBreweries Down\nNTRKAI*   Feb.   23.\u2014A   shar)\nvalues   took   plat\nlast   limit\nhange   tod\nder,   soi,i   ..,\nB6H ex-dfvldend\nf   trading   on   the   loca\nBrazilian,   the   active\nthe   new   high   of\n\"\"      - \"      .-.'\u25a0.      inn      ii ip. ii     t.i\nlik1 j ex-dhUIeml. but at the eluse liail\nsaKKe(l oft' to 97 ex-ilivljlenil for a net\nloss of H.

I\n THE NELSON DAILY NEWS,   WEDNESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 24, 1926^\nPage Ninf\nBACK FROM THE GOLD RUSH\nPROPOSED ROAD\nSTILL DEBATED\nIN THE HOUSE\n\u2022 * (Controlled from  page  l)\nunity  in  the  Liberal  party  to  hold\nthis country together.\nOn the other hand, confidence in\nthe Conservative party and In the\nleader of that party had been expressed by the return of Conservatives as the largest group in the\nhouse. If there was one thing that\nwas undermining the confidence of\nthe electors of Canada, it was tho\ngrowing belief that public men were\ninsincere. The prime minister In\nhis manifesto at Richmond Hill had\ndeclared against group government.\nAfter the election he had immediately sought to make an alliance with\none of the groups ln the house in\norder to carry on government.\nAdmission of Weakness\nMr. Cotnam argued that it was\nan admission of weakness by tho\ngovernment that Premier Dunning,\nInstead of one of the Liberal members of the house of commons had\nbeen selected as minister of railways and canals. He wondered it'\ntho branch line program of the\nCanadian National railways, which\nprovided for large construction in\nSaskatchewan was designated to assist the new minister of railways\nand canals ln his Regina campaign.\nMr. Cotnam criticised the government for not having brought down a\nconcrete proposal on the Hudson Bay\nrailway. It had promised at the\noutset that the railway should be\ncompleted, but had not revealed the\nsteps It would take to solve that\nold problem. He wondered If the\ngovernment was delaying any discussion of that subject in the bouse\nln case tt had to appeal in eastern\nCanada for the election of cabinet\nministers in this part of the country.\nQ. R, Qeary, Conservative, Toronto\nSouth, said that lt had been shown\nfrom parliamentary authorities early\nIn the session that a ministry must\nhave effective control over tha proceedings of the house of commons.\nWhv t^en did the government not\nundertake to stop what it callt I\n\"obstruction.\" The government simply\ncould not \"screw up the courage to\naot.\"\nTurning to the railway situation, Mr.\nGeary stated that in the past provision hod been made by separate\nbill for every branch line constructed\non the Canadian National  system.\nThe introduction of these separaf\nMils gave all members of the house\nef commons and the senate an opportunity to consider and discuss the\nmerits or demerits of the proposed\nline. But a most outrageous violation\nhad recently been perpetuated by the\ngovernment. It had been suggested\nthat a line bo constructed from the\nRouyn area.\nAn Outrageous Breach\n' ''The government entered Into a\nScheme which enabled it to do something by order-fneouncil, when it\nknew It had no right to do anything\nat' aH,\" said Mr. Geary. Why had\nthe government not coma to the\nhouse for authorization to build thia\nroad, as in the case of every other\nbranch line. \"Because it wanted to\nbuild the road and it knew it had\nno authority to do so,\" he declared,\n[ It was \"an outrageous breach nf\nfaith.\" It had been put through an\nunderground method. Last year\nbranch lines of only four miles in\nlength had been solemnly discussed\nin the house, while the government\nsat with tongue in cheek, contemplating the Rouyn railway.\nCf. B. Nicholson, Conservative, Al-\ngoma East,, also discussed the Rouyn\nrailway. The company formed to\nconstruct this railway, he said, might\nbetter have been called \"Tho Campaign Funds Company of 1W5.'V.\nHe criticised the action of the government in authorizing n bond issue\nof $5,000,000 when one of Its ministers was ready to admit that the\ncost of construction would bo $2,-\n600.000.\nHon. Charles Stewart asked that\nIf there was ,not a provision in the\ncontract whereby the engineers of tho\nC.N.St would supervise costs.\nMf. Nicholson retorted that It was\n\"trustee of the bondholders\" that was\nauthorized to exercise such \u25a0 supervision, and there \u25a0 was no protection\nfor ,the  national  roads.\nRt. Hon. Arthur Melghen Interrupted to ask If there was anything\nIn the contract to prevent the government Issuing bonds for more than\nthe actual costs of construction.\nMr. Nicholson said there was not,\nand Mr. Stewart interjected \"that\nts a very adroit question. Provision ls made for' proper supervision of cost.\"\nMr. Nicholson concluded! his speech\nat 9 o'clock.\nJake Davidson and his partner.

As a result of some influence unknown to astronomers, Ihe\nsun apparently is entering upon th\"\nmaximum phase of its 11-year cycle\nof activity ahead of schedule and its\nincandescent atmosphere is developing more of ihe huge whirls and\neddies known as sunspots.\nMariners .-ire blaming tho largo sun-\nspots for t he t crri fie st orms that\nhave been swam nlng ocean vessels.\nThis the experts deny, or if there is\nany direct connection between tho\nspots and the storms, they at lenst\nare not aware of it.\nWill   Increase\nA single spot lin,ono miles by 35,000\nmiles recently was photographed hy\nthe United States naval observatory,\nas well as a group of spots extending\n175,000 miles, or almost 22 times the\ndiameter of the earth. Astronomers\nsay the number ct spots will increase for a l lenst another year, possibly two, until th\" maximum of activity is reached sometime between\nlate 1928 and  11*28.\nWhat will ho their effect on earth?\nWill they cause groat disturbances\nIn the weather, earthquakes, electrical\nstorms? Several scientists have given\ncorroborative but reassuring answers.\nNone expresses any anxiety.\nDr. William J. Humphreys of the\nweather bureau here says that sun-\nspots will have some effect upon the\nweather\u2014probably slightly cooler- -\nwhen the spots reach their maximum\nactivity. But as to an offset on day-\nto-day or weok-to-week weather, the\nbureau was skeptical. The opinion\nwas that no general law would apply.\nDr. Louis A. Bauer, director of tho\nterrestrial magnetlRm , laboratory of\nCarnegie Institution; declares that\nwhile sunspots and magnetic storms\nare closely associated. If fairly long\nperiods were taken for comparison\nthe .correspondence ls not close\nenough to be used an n? basis of pro-\ndiction from day to day.\nMesne   More   Heat\n\"Sunspots may not be the direct\ncauso of magnetic storms,\" ho adds.\n\"It seems more proba bis that both\nare caused by a stirring tip of tho\nsolar activity from a cause, probably\nelectrical in Its nature, of whieh we\nreally know nothing.

It is this\nincreased activity that probably\ncauses both the sunspots and tho\nmagnetic storms.\"\nPolar activity means heat and when\nthere are the most spots the sun\nusually is hotter, asserts Dr. F. K.\nFowle .Ir., of the astro-physical observatory of the Smithsonian institution. This does not mean a hotter\nearth, he explains, recalling the Humphrey statement. Reasons for this\nparadox ore long and complicated,\nbut Dr. Fowle gives a hint as to\nhow  this  might happen;\n\"If the sun got hot enough to\ncause more evaporation from tho\noceans there would be more cloudiness and more rain on land and cooler\nweather.\"\nSmithsonian officials believe that\nsmall changes In solar heat have a\nfairly ' close relation to ensuing\nweather on earth, but do not think it\npossible for advance weather pro-\ndictions.\nThat there is a definite, although\nas yet not clearly defined relationship between sunspots and weather, Is\nthought likely hy Dr. Robert de C.\nWard, professor of climatology ;u\nHarvard university.\n\"The discovery of an 11-year sun-\nspot periodicity tn the magnetic\nphenomena Of tho earth,'' he says,\n\"naturally has led to investigations\nof similar periods in weather. Numerous studies havo been made back\neven into the 17th century, but the\nproblem is difficult and obscure he-\ncause weather Itself is n complex.\"\n\"Predicting   sunspots   is   something\nlike predicting snowstorms on earth.\" |\ndeclares   I'rof.
