B, St. Germain, now in progress\nin the court of King's bench here\nbids fair lo utaiu international fame,\nit is the first time in the history of\ntbe courts of Great Britain or Canada that hypnotism has been invoked\nas the defense ln a murder trial,\nand A. R. Phlllon, of this city, who\nhas put lib Mio defense for the accused, is making a strenuous fight\nToday he called as a witness B. A.\nFinn, -barrister of Prince Albert, who\nbelonged to a, society for physic\nsearch in England which made\nstudy of hypnotic phenomena.\nMr. Finn produced the authority of\nD. Allcenhead Stroud, as quoted In 'a\nlegal work, to show that practically\neverything that has been claimed by\nCarmel and SI. Germain ns to their\ncomplete .subjugation mentally liy\nGervi.is could be accounted for by\nhypnotism.\nIn the cross-examination, tho witness admitted that tbe general conclusions of Stroud were that even in\ntlio confirmed criminal and under\nthe influence of a criminal hypnotist\nthere would be sub-conscious revulsion to committing such a, crime\nas a murder because the mind of\nthe criminal would recollect thnt he\nwould bo likely to suffer death for\nthe crime and- this would deter him.\nIn tho average normal subject tinder\ntbe control of a hypnotist, tbe revulsion would come from his usual\nhabits of life audi general opposition\nto crime,\nMr! Phlllon, for the defense, called\nto the witness stand Jacques Rodri-'\nguez, a Spaniard, who claims to be\na graduate hynotlst of colleges at\nNow York, Philadelphia and of Mont*\nppler, Vormont, and had practised\nthe art for two years.\nThis witness deposed, that the hypnotist coald exercise his art for good\nor evil, that after the subject had\nbeen hypnotised several times the\ninfluence could be easily maintained\nby transition of thought and that\neven if the hyn'otist were playing the\nfool lie could maintain llie influence.\nHowever, if the subject were under\narrest and recognized that the law\nwas superior to any other influence,\nthe. hypnotist would not then be able\nto wield his spell over tbe subject,\nIf the hypnotist were under arrest\nfor a crime it would tend to lessen\nbis influence. Chief Justice Brown,\nat tbis stage of the proceedings, took\na band in the examination.\nTlio witness hud said that a, hypnotist under arrest would worry despite a successful effort to conceal\nbis agitation. St. Germain today\ngave the first example of a breakdown of any of tho Steep Creek trio\ncharged with the McKay murder. He\nstepped from the witness stand at\nthe conclusion of his examination\nwitii tears streaming from bis eyes\nand for a considerable timo aftor he\nwas placed back in the prisoner's\ndock be continued to hold his handkerchief to his eyes. The prisoner\nhad been subjected to a fierce cross-\nexamination by P. E, McKenzie, K.C.,\nfor the crown.\nWhen Mr. McKenzle had finished\nwith the witness, Mi*. Phlllon asked\nSt. Germain a few questions in reexamination. St. Germain, replying\nto a question as to how he knew\nthat the sinister influence of Dr.\nOervais had passed away, said that\nduring the last month and a half\nbe felt like a different man and had\nnow* conic to recognize the wrong\nhe had done. If be coutd ha,ve\nknown the terrible result that the\nhypnotism by Dr. Gervals was to load\nto he would never have consented\nto let himself be hypnotized in the\nfirst place. With his recognition of\nthe wrong done and even if it meant\nthe giving up of his life to atone\nfor it he would die willingly.\nHero the witness began weeping\nand ids concluding sentences were\nchoked with sobs. He took his hand\nkerchief from bis pocket and hid\nbis face In it ns Mr. Phlllon drama\ntlcally announced \u2022 that that would\nconclude tho examination.

The prefect of tho depart\nment. M.

Although\nstrict military regulations were en\nforced and the crowds of villagers\nbold back by sentries from the rail\nway station and the shady avenues\nthroughout which tho delegation was\nhurried to Its abiding place, such\nprecautions w'cre unnecessary for the\ncrowds displayed mild curiosity.\nrather than hostility.\nUnder official escort the correspondents and others were conducted\nceremoniously to the station through\nstreets from which other traffic was\nbeon burred. It seemed llko a fete\nday, unconnected with the war, and\nthe good spirits of the crowd awaiting the Austrians appeared to be\nshared by them, for they emerged\nsmiling from their special train.\nTt was a cosmopolitan crowd which\nawaited tlie delegation. French, English, Italian, Japanese, and United\nSlates journalists and officers.

The delegation wus\nheaded by Karl Renner, tlie chancellor. Ho appeared in tlie doorway of\nthe car with his hat In his hand and\nwith a contagious smile that put tho\nreception committee quickly at ease.\nDr. Renner, a plump, round-faced man\nwith a black beard and bald head,\nand with his eyes shining brightly behind a pair of gold-retimed spectacles,\nbowed courteously to tlie reception\ncommittee. There was no handshaking. The head of the Austrian delegation was followed by Dr. Franz\nKlein, Peter Eichotf and Dr. Richard\nSchulter. After them came the other\nmembers of the party, which numbered about GO. '\nM.

The\nlowest point touched by the mercury\nin tho thermoinetor Is at earnings less\nthan $550; the highest at $1250 and\nover. In the lowest group (earning\nless than $550) the death rate o\u00a3 babies\nis given at 162.6, or one in every six.\nlh tho highest group (earning $1250)\nit Is given at 62.5, dr one in every\n16.

On the outbreak of thc\ngreat war, Japan lent, her aid to tho\nallies and, after a short selge, took\npossession of Klao-chau, pending a\ngeneral settlement at the conclusion of\nthe war. In 1915 nn important agreement fas reached between China and\nJapan,! which, among other thingn;\nsettled, the rights of Japanese subjects\nin Soutli Manchuria, strengthened tho\nhold of Japan over the Han-Yeh-1'ing\ncompany and declared that if, after tho'\nwar, Japan was given full disposal ot\nKiuo-chau It would ho returned to\nChina, subject to its being opened as\na commercial port and to tho eBtoJbJ.\nllshmcnt of a Japanese concession in\nthe neighborhood.\n.Now whilo tho great war has been\ngoing on in Europe, the northern and\nsouthern division of the former Man-\n,*).e] empire, torn by civil war, have\nbeen borrowing freely from Japan, until, today China has mortgaged a large\npart of her resources to her neighbor.\nTho wur In Europe has left Japan\nutrongor than ever before in her history. She is relieved from the menacing jealousy of imperial Itussltt, possesses several strategically valuable\noutposts in the islands taken from\nGermany, has a full pocket book, a\ngreat army and a growing navy, while\nindustry has been increased many-Jold.\nJapan has solidified her sway over the\n\"Far East.\nCOMMERCE AND ITS VAST\njj) IMPORTANCE .*'\nUrging mutual co-operation. \u2022 between government and business,\nFrancis H.

There factors range\nfrom the annual gold supply of Africa\nto the conditions of thc roads in America. The complexity of thc latter factor Is evident when it Is considered\nthat the coBt of potatoes to thc peoplo\nof Ottawa depends not alone on the\ncost of transportation charges,\" but also on the quantity of potatoes that aro\nleft behind and that do not reach a\nmarket owing to tho condition of tho\nroads leading to Ottawa, says thc Ottawa Journal. Investigators into thc\ngroat spread of ten found between tho\nprice, of, say apples, as paid to tho\nconsumer, invariably run up against\nthe fact that the transportation charges account for tho bulk of it. Clearly,\nthen, to reduce thc cost of hauling,\ncarrying and carting is to reduce tho\ncost of any product to the consumer.\nA reduction in the cost of transportation for tho cijmmon road means two\nthings: First, thc farmer, the fruit\ngrower, and tho gardener are encouraged to grow to capacity, to load to\ncnpaclty, and to ship to capacity; second, waste, criminal at any time, particularly so when millions of people\nare near starvation, becomes unprofitable as woll.\nThe greatest stimulant to production,\nto conservation of food, to Its ready\nmarketing and Indeed to national self-\nsufficiency, is good roads. Thc past\ntwo or threo yearB have proven the Immense value ot our highways in con-\niunctlon with motor trucks In increasing production. In the United States\na movement, known as \"Farm to table\nparcel post\" has enlisted thc support\nof the Post Office department. Last\nyear the postal authorities Instituted\nin some of tho Eastern states a series\nof express motor truck poBtal routes,\nIhe effect of which was to make moro\ndirect and speedy the transit of food by\nUnited States parcel post from farm to\ncity market or to consumer, and tho;\nreturn of urban goods to thc producer.\nThis movement has proved eo bo a\ngreat success from a standpoint of the\ncity dweller, the country producer, and\nalso the postal authorities.\nAt a meeting, of the highway transport committee of the council of National defense, held ln September last,\nMr. Hoover, the well-known American\nfood administrator, pointed out lhat\nwith motor express lines the farmer\nneed not maintain as many draft animals and that horses that cat theji\ncrops of millions ot acres might be\nlargely dispensed with and tho land\nused to ralso food for the people.

One motor truck operator can\nin a single day save the time of a dozen farmers In going to a town to buy\nand sell.\nTho capacity of the average horse\non an earth road ln thc best of condition on a level is said to be about 3600\npounds, wiillc on a broken stone road\nIt is 6700 pounds. Thc difference is\n3100. pounds, almost another' earth\nroad load. The relation 'of llie earth\nroad as against brokon .stone road to\ntho cost of living is patent, because\ntoo often the second load over the\nearth road never reaches a market.\nThis view ls supported by thc conclusion of Mr. Hoover, who at thc meeting referred to above, made thc em-\nphatlo declaration that 50 per cent cf\nthe perishable produce'of Amerien is\nwasted, largely through Insufficient\nmethod of' transport. \u25a0 He expressed\nhis belief 'that a developed rural express system will lead to the establishment of public markets and give us the\nnecessary base of economical success\nwith roultant lower prices.\nIn regard to tho effect of the conditions of roads on haulage costtf, ihe\nfigures of, Professor Caughlari of thc\nAgricultural and Mechanical College\n;of Texas are of Interest. He gives the\nsaving in the cost of hauling effected\nhy the following classes of improved\nroads Ih'cetifs per ton miles as: h'arth\not- Sand clay roads, 7% cents; gravel\nroadB, 10 cents; bituminous macadam,\ncohcrete,.'6r other expensive pavement,\n15 cents. These figures do not take\nInto consideration the saving in wear\nand tear on Vehicles, harness, and ani-\nmalc, the undoubtedly great benefit to\na community frOm Improved social opportunities,'nor other benefits occurring to anyone. \u25a0\nThe. value of theso figures Is more\napparent in regard to the cost of living as affected by commodities other\nthan those consumed at the table, such\nas coal and lumber. However, the inter-relation of one object of daily commerce with all the others ls so intimate that all aro affected in some degree by the conditions controlling the\ncost of producing nnd marketing of a\nsingle commodity.\nA general .system of improved roads\ntn this country would go far towards\nsolving the problem in almost every\nhome today of ways and means. Obviously, tho establishment of rural motor express lines awaits tho building\nof satisfactory roads. \"First things\nfirst'* In thc federal government's reconstruction policy would brook no,delay in making a start. \u00ab\\\nCANINE CONSTABLES.\nWho has seen a dog-policeman?\nThere is, at any rate, one highly responsible post, which Ib held by a canine member of the force.

His leeat is nt the mint, nnd\nafter a certain hour he will not allow\nanyone within a certain distance, unless they are wearing police uniform.\nThe. service rendered by dogs during\nthe war Is most remarkable, both in\nhelping wounded and in .carrying messages.\n, On one occasion a lurcher belonging\nthe tho Black Watch carried a map\nshowing a new line and on Important\nmessage, arriving at Its destination in\ntwenty-flvo minutes, whereas it would\nhave taken a man three hours\u2014if he\narrived at all.\nAnother dog hero was taken to a new\nheadquarters the day before a British\nattack was to bo made.
