LONDON, Nov. 30.—Owing to the .retreat of the greater part of the Servian army across the Albanian frontier, the slowness of the operations against Montenegro and in southern Servia owing to the wintry weather and the absence of any major operations In tbe west and east, interest in the military side of the war is now transferred to the Austro-Itaillan frontier, where King Victor Emmanuel's troops are canning on an energetic of. fensive against the Austrians. . The fighting on this front has provided the longest sustained and fiercest battle of the whole war. For weeks the Italians have heen attaokitig the 'ATistrian bridgeheads and mountain positions along the Isonzo river, and are slowly but, surely drawing their nets around Tolmino, Gorizia and Doberdo. Their attacks have been repeated time after time against positions which had been rmost carefully prepared, and, while the Austrians re-" port that most of these assaults have been repulsed, tlieir accounts are considered hore to have been so warded as to prepare the public for the retirement from Gorizia, at least. Tills, for the time being, is-Italy's contribution to the Balkan operations of the allies, for its keeps a large force of Austrians busy and makes It necessary for them to bring up reinforcement which CQuldbo,usefully employed against the MonTe'negrins and Servians.

"In the Carnia region a! lively artillery fire dfcpersed a column of the enemy troops on tho march toward Qlramondo pass, whll0k other enemy detachments were put to fight on Mon. te Lodin. "On the. upper Isonzo in the region of Monto Nero our troops have repulsed violently enemy attacks directed especially against our new positions on tho slopes of the Mrzli and Vodil mountains."

VIENNA, Nov. 30.—The following statement was issued today: "On the Italian front It becomes clearer that the enemy will at all costs force a victory near Gorizia if It Is at all possible to do so. Yesterday their attacks wej-e directed against the entire front from Tolmino to the Sea, and with special severity against iboth our bridgeheads on the northern part of the plateau of Doberdo.

GERMANY WILL TAX WAR PROFITS President- of Reichstag Is Optimistic IS TROUBLED, HE SAYS Have Crowned "Victors in the Balkans, Declares Speaker (By Daily News Leased Wire.) * BKRLIN, Dec. 1.—The opening of the reichstag today was marked by an address of welcome by the president, Dr. Kaempf, in which he complimented Germany on Iho highly satisfactory- condition in the east and west and the successful conclusion qf the Servian campaign, and a speech by the secretary of thc imperial treasury. Dr. K. Helfernich, introducing a bill arranging the preliminaries for the taxation of* war profits. He urged the speedy discussion of the bill so that no war profits could escape taxation and promised an actual measure of taxation ■ofwar profits for the ne^t" sitting of the reichstag in March. He intimated that the government would Impose a gradual scale of taxation based on the amount of the war profits and would also include a tax on incomes which had increased during the year, but he gave no intimation of the extent of the prospective taxation. In the president's remarks to the house ho said: "While in the west the enemy's attempt to break through, undertaken with strong forces, failed when con- frontedwith the contempt of death by our troops and their commsunders, while in the east the German and A astro-Hungarian armies bold with an iron grip what they, have won In battles which were boldly planned and heroically carried out; while on the Isonzo the Italians by force of arms are attempting to conquer the least part bf which before the wer-they could have got from Austria without striking a blow, in the Balkans feats of arms have been accomplished and events have occurred whith from both a military and diplomatic point of view have been carried througii with splendid and unsurpassed certainty, and which have enabled us, in combination with our allies and with the, Bulgarian army, to avenge tlie murder at Sarajevo and bring to an end, as we hope, for all time Servian intrigues which have proved to be so mischievous to Europe, "Proud England Is Troubled" "In close union of arms, with (he brave armies of the king of Bulgaria and the Bulgarian people wo have crowned our victory. We welcome this from the bottom of our hearts. "The Servian army has been defeated. The Turkish army has lived up to Its old reputation and has brought about the failure of the Dardanelles enterprise. "Proud England is troubled about the key to its supremacy. All our enemies havo recognized that we are invincible on the battlefield; so the more eagerly do they cling to their .hope to destroy us economically, to conquer us by hunger. , . "As they allow themselves to be deceived regarding our financial strength which has been proved by the astonishing result of our war loans, so they have also been deceived by their estimate of our economic strength. *. "We have corn for bread, potatoes, thc most important food of the people, are abundant. In other things there may be a scarcity, as cannot be die* puted, yet the hardships thus caused to a majority of the people or population will bo surmounted by the organization of the provision market. We, therefore, financially and economically, have every reason to contemplate the future with firm determination and unshaken confidence." The reichstag then adopted the final reading of thc bill, modifying certain features of the martial law, giving the option of a fine instead of imprison ment for minor- offenses. There was no debate, although the Socialist member Herr Scheidemann announced that the Socialists might take up the quos tlon of certain abuses later in the ses sion. Dr, Helfernich then introduced a bill requiring companies and corporations to set aside 50 per cent of their extra profits during the war to cover their ultimate taxation, NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS.

(By Daily News Leased Wire.) LONDON, Nov. 30.—Thc following official statement was issued today in regard to the sinking of the German steamer Germanla in the Baltic: "A German wireless communication of Nov. 11 "contained a report that a German steamship, the Germanla, was blown up 'by a dynamite bomb placed on it by a British submarine. The British government considers it well to record the true account of what took place: "The commanding officer of a British submarine states that at noon on Oct. 11, when between Utlangen and South Gothland, he sighted the Germanla and signaled lt ot stop. The Germanla, heading for the Swedish coast, disregarded the signal to stop and continued to steam In that direc- Iton. Shots were fired by the submarine to bring the vessel to and warn it that it was running bit a sandbank. "The Germanla paid no attention to these signals and ran ashore between Laud-brink and Outer Stengrund. "The submarine, which hltheHo liad remained outside of Swedish territorial waters, then proceeded alongside with the object of saving the erew and to salve the Ship, but the latter was found abandoned. An hour was spent ill an attempt to tow lt off but lt was found impossible to move it. As the water was by that time gaining in the engine room, the British officer and Ills hien returned to the submarine, taking With them the ship's impo'rs for safe custody aiid a quantity of fresh meat for the. use. of the submarine's crew, "The explosion referred to In the German message, which, is alleged to have taken place after the sailors had left the Germanla, .would appear to be the result of seawater coming into contact with the boilers. It certainly was,not due to aBy.attempt of the British sailors to destroy the vessel, whicli waa bou'td from Stettin with a cargo of 2750 tons of concentrated iron ore." The Germanla was one of several shipa reported from Stockholm to have been sunk'on.. Oct, 12 by British submarines in the' southern Baltic. It was afterward declared that the Germanla had made for shore and grounded, according to Swedish reports, in ISsvedlsh territorial waters, but that men from a -British submarine nevertheless had boarded tbe Germanla and tekw ftSW 'ts (J'WSi ..

BLAME IS PLACED SQUARELY ON BERLIN Managing Director of Hamburg-American Line Says. War Plan Was .Made in 1913. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—-fhe German government was revelled today as the mainspring of the movement to succor German cruisers at'sea with coal aiul supplies shipped on neutj'al vessels fro mAmerlcan ports early in tlie war, by.the testimony of Dr. Karl Buenz, managing director of the Hamburg- American line. Buenz took the witness stand late to. day in the trial of himself ahd other line officials and employees under Indictment for conspirarcy to defraud the United States. In the fall of-1913, Dr.'Bucnz testified, he received from the head office of the Hne.iii Hamburg a letter which notified lilm that his superior offleers and the German government had signed an agreement which would become operative in time of war. This agreement was sent to the German consul- general in New Tork. The salient points of the agreement were, "as recalled today by Dr. Buenz, as follows: That the Hamburg-American' line would undertake to send coal and supplies to any German warships needing them In the Atlantic, should Germany engage in war. That certain methods of communication would be issued hy the home office of the' line in Hamburg to advise tlie line'B officials in New York whero to send the supply ships. There the matter rested till July 31, 191*1. On the morning, of that day, when the shadow of war rested over Europe, Dr. Buenz received a cablegram from Hamburg which read about as follows: "' , "Are you prepared to carry out our* arrangement with the German government?" To this he sent one word back which was "Yes," aftd-then, feeling that German ships were soon to be swept from the sea by the allied warships, he set in motion the machinery t6 provide neutral vessels to carry cargoes of coal and supplies to his compatriots afloat- in the south Atlantic. - Thus, the defense, contends, was fashioned what the American government has termed a conspiracy to deceive and defraud the United States. Dr. Buenz, directing the activities of three other defendants—all his subordinates, in the line, was alone to blame if there was any blame, Mr. Rand, counsel for the defense, told the Jury ln his opening address. There was one provision that was not followed out, Mr. Rand said, and only one; no money was furnished witli which to charter and supply the ships. But the men of the Hamburg-American line, and the lino itself dug down into their own funds and spent the money themselves, knowing that it would be repaid." Berlin Sent $1,500,000. "When theso funds^ ran short there was a loud cry for help and money came here from Germany. We make no secret of this. Within a felt days We received three remittances of $500,000 each from Germany and these we deposited in New York banks to thi credit of tho line. Nor do we make a secret of the fact that the Hamburg- American line noted as banker for Capt. K. Boy-Ed, German naval attache at Washington, and he had to spend large sums of money. "We know nothing whatever of tho $750,000 that came from Germany to Kuienkampf, the German exporter who testified that he received this sum aud was told, it was for Capt. Boy-Ed. But wo do contend that we committed no unlawful act ln thus seeking to supply German ships at sea." Dr. Buenz will testify against tomorrow. Total to Exceed Hundred Million Dollars EXTENSION OF CREDIT TO BRITAIN LILY Ottawa Reports Indicate Probability of Financing Munition Purchases (By Daily News Leased Wire.) . OTTAWA, Nov. 30.—Canada's first utteAipt to raise a domestic War loan bus been crowned 'with complete success. Owing to the united efforts of all classes of the community, the hearty cooperation of the press and the exertions of the minister of finance and his staff, the $50,000,000 aiAed for has been subscribed more than twice over. The exact details as to the amount of subscriptions were not available when the list was closed at 3 o'clock today, but Hon. W. T. White was in a position to make the announcement that the subscription will exceed the $100.- 000.000 mark, probably by several millions. He declined to say wherlrer or nnl all the money subscribed would he accepted as was done by the Austral- Ian government when its domestic loan wns largely over subscribed. It is probable that this is„a point which.,has not yet been definitely settled. Should the advertised amount of the loan only be accepted It will mean that the big sub.* scribers will receive something less than 50 per cent of the amount of their subscriptions. Small Subscribers Numerous. Mr. White is well pleased with the number of individual subscriptions received. They will exceed 26,000. All sections of Canada have participated and the issue has been popular In the truest and widest sense of the term. A noteworthy feature has -been the remarkable number of small subscriptions. As soon as full returnR haye lieen received . and particulars tubulated the government will be In a position to consider the questiin of allotment. ; There will be no financial disturbance or derangement of business by reason of the war loan, All the monies received on account of the subscriptions will be left on deposit for thee credit of the minister of finance with the several banks from which they aro withdrawn by the depositors. The ln*^ stalment payments are spread over six months and the total amount raised by the loan will be expended in Canada In raising, equipping and sending Jocth-- Canadian troops. Can Aid British Buying. * It is not generally known that at least 80 per cent of Canadian war expenditures had been spent in Canada. The successful—Iteration of the war loan will enable the minister of finance to assist to a still greater extent the temporary financing of the shell com- • mittee for the imperial treasury. Up to date the Canadian government has advanced $57,772,000 in temporary advances to the Imperial government to pay for orders placed by the shell com - mittee. These advances have beerufrom time to tlmo repaid 'by the Imperial treasury. Speaking of the success of tho loan, Mr. White said: "I desire to express the deepest appreciation of the government for the magnificent response by the people of Canada to the war loan issue. The result, spendld In itself, will go out to the whole world as unmistakable evidence of Canada's financial Btrength and of its steadfast determination to prosecute this w*arv wa£ed In a righteous cause, to a triumphant close.

MORE THAN DOUBLE (Continued from Page One.) aided beyond expression, our warmest thanks are cordially and gratefully ex. tended. The CjJapadlan people never fall to the full height of any great occasion;" Must Give Britain Credit. OTTAWA, Nov. 30.—Canada henceforth is to undertake to pay its own way in thc war and to assume wider functions In the financing of the war purchases. Thc pledges of providing every available man for the prosecution of the war is to be supplemented by the pledge of providing every available dollar. Hitherto every cent of the war expenditure has been defrayed from 'borrowings from England and for every dollar's worth of goods England has purchased in Canada cash has been paid. The days of borrowing In the London market aro ov&r and Canada must in the future look to its own resources supplemented perhaps by borrowings In New York, to.pay Its way. More "than that, if Canada,de- '.slres. to remain on the purchasing list of Great Britain it must be prepared to grant Britain credit for tho orders which it places. The first venturo of the Dominion in its own fields-of finance has been remarkably successful. The 150,000,000 loan floated 10 days ago has met with marked and gratifying success and has been subscribed twice over. Considering that internal loans are a decided Innovation In the country, the response ha's been splendid and is an indication of the amount of money available in •he Dominion. . Whether the government will decide to accept the full amounts subscribed or hot, has not been announced, but it is probable that it will. More Loans to Come, It is to be used for raising, equipping and sending forward Canadian forces and for the temporary financing of the shell committee for the Imperial1 government... .Fifty-sevetH-mHUons have already been advanced In this way and paid back from time to time. If Canada's war expenditure is to total J2.iO,OO0,O00 during the coming* year further international borrowing will be necessary at no distant date ferrthat purpose alone. Nobody! In fact, doubts that a further domestic loan will be floated later. But this will not complete the obligations requested of the Dominion. In this connection the speech at Montreal of P. H. Brand, tiie well known Hritish financier who is Jn Canada with Jlr. 'Hitchens in"cSunec-' tion with the munitions supply, Is regarded here as highly significant. Britain's Growing NeedS,' Mr. Brand, declared that Great Britain is how spending at the rate of $:'3,000,000'a day. or $9,000,00o',000 a year, and that special taxes have been putlh force by which it is hoped to double the -rmeniie from Sl.000,000,- 000. to. $£,000,000,000. This, he says, ttMll leave J7.O0O.0CO.OO0 to be raised by loan. If Canada were borrowing on the same basis as Jxi._Populatlon as Great Britain, he states, It-would be raising $1,160,000,000 a j-eear or In other words a $50,000,000 loan every 16 days. Mr. Brand further estimates-that Great Britain through a reduction in production would be short of goods to meet the needs' of its population by $4,000,- 000,000. This must he impurtiyl in face of exchange with paymentjj,- which grow more adverse with ^the. increase of Great Britain's debts. "France and Russia,'' he says, "are rapidly growing more self-supporting. They must cease to buy abroad where ever they possibly can and furthermore, since in any cose a good deal must be bought, they must Inevitably buy from -those countries which can give them credit. Unless by some means or other Great Britain can ob- tain'Canadian goods, as It does in reality on credit, the time must come when it will find It difficult if not impossible to pay fe.r them. Financial))/ speaking the burden is the same to lis whether we have to fay a dollar to a Canadian farmer or to an American farmer, or to a Canadian manufacturer or an American manufacturer. Canada Could txtend Credit. ■ * "One.-of -the- gi-t-irtesrTeiwIceiPwTnch Canada can do at this juncture is to see whether it can hy any means or to any extent help England to meet its burden of foreign Indebtedness. I' do not feel it impossible that Canada may devise some means, possibly -through the banging community Iri some way like the New Vork banks are doing, of extending some measure of credit to Great Britain." i There is no doubt that Mr. Brand spoke the sentiment of tho British government and it is believed here such a proposal'as the foregoing has the support of the government here. It is believed possible that not only will the banks accord some measure of credit for the purchase of Canadian goods but that the government will also take a hand. In this connection it is 'believed that domestic bprrowings wili^be supplemented by heavy issues of Dominion notes to pay for the supplies purchased here. By this means Great Britain would be relieved of part of the tremendous burden which It at present has to bear th0 loss from adverse rates of exchange would be obviated and Canada would continue to benefit by the larger Purchases both of munitions, war sup- Plies, whea, flour nnd, other articles which have helped tq relieve a depressing situation,*'-•- : ■' WEDNESDAV, bEc;i LOANS GRAIN FOR (Continued from Page One.) edge as yet nsf- to when they are expected to pay it back.

Stronger Measures" Possible if He Continues to "Foul His Own Nest," Says Home Secretary. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) LONDON, Nov. 30.—Sir John Simon, secretary of state for home affairs, served notice on Lord Northcliffe to- aay in the house of commons that if the "gentler-way" heretofore pursued to induce his newspaper to stop tbe "continual fouling of his own nest" uld not prove effective, "it ls perfectly possible to take stronger measures." 'I do not know Lord I^orthcliffe," said Sir John, "but he appears to bo a man with the curious habit of always trying to destroy tho things ho has niade. Liko the prophets oi' Baal he leaps-on the altars he has made We in this country know how to estimate the value of these jaundiced prints, but it is a disnpplontment to our allies and a source of disgust to neutrals." ' The subject arose over an attack by Northcliffe papers on Sir John Simon In connection with a reply tho lattei recently* made to a question in the commons In whichVthe holllc secretary intimated that utterances in the Times wero quoted gleefully in newspapers m hostile countries and were proving harmful to tho national interests. The Times insinuated that tho'whole matter was a conspiracy to injure the newspaper anij today Sir John made a personal explanation to the house, quoting instances to show how the Harmsworth paiiers had* put out "a constant flow of material of a depressing tendency," which was eagerly seized.upon by Germany. "In one w^eeK in October," he udded, "the Cologno Gazette on four days made use of material to show that the British people were a disunited people.'' Times Replies LONDON, Dec. 1.—In "an editorial this morning replying to the remarks of Sir John Simon regarding Lord Northcliffe ,the Times says: "Sir .lohn Simon's speech consists of un elaborate rechauffe of the political intrigue with which we are sufficiently familiar from the pages of the paiiy press. The plain Englishman, bent on winning tlie greatest war in history, will, we believe, be amazed that a cabinet minister summoning only the means of his~Jparty, should devote so much' enthusiasm and time to an attack'on newspapers which do not happen to agree with his politics but are straining every nerve, for the national cause. "They would be still more amazed if they knew the petty Jealousies and subterranean intrigues of which the speech is an outward sign." MAJOR WYNNE DIES. (By Daily News Leased Wire.)

The result is all , thn more' gratifying In view of tho faet that the general expectation that the loan would he oversubscribed operated ,7" to keep many people from offering to participate. The success of the loan is also, a splendid augury for future domestic flotations. Ilnn.-W.T.T.

That $100,000,000 has heen subscribed is notice.to the world thut the people of the Dominion are prepared to give of their dollars as willingly as they are giving of their best blood to further the cause of the Empire in the-war. Canadian customs duties in November reached a total of $9,318,000, which is more than $4,000,000 greater than in tho same month of 1914.

A certain young officer, sa.vs the modern Sir John, shook the dust of Kngland off his feet on returning to the trenches, with these-words: "England's all very well to live in in peace time, but in war time, it's too- beastly depressing.

(Hy Daily News Leased Wife.)'*. CHICAGO, 111., Nov. 30.—Expected generous deliveries here tomorrow o'f December contracts tended today to IncreaBe 'bearish sentiment regarding wheat. The resulf'was an unsettled close at %c net decline, with December at $1.05 and May at $1.07%. Oats ■was clown % and provisions 214 to 5c lower. Sales of liberal amounts of wheat to go into store here finally gave a distinct advantage to the hears and turned attention to the prospect of holders of December options, being* obliged to accept more warehouse receipts than proved convenient. Apparent absence* of any urgent'ex- port call wa.s responsible to .some extent for the late weuknes sof the wheat market. It was not until after trading had - come to an end that announcement was made of European buying of domestic wheat"uftrountlng to 1,- 250,000 bushels, chiefly Duluth spring wheat. In this connection the fact was of interest tyittf" receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth hud noticeably dropped off. Oats were depressed. A big export business did but little to check the decline. Lower prices for hogs weakened provisions. About the only support came from shorts.

(By Dally News Leased Wire.) NEW YORK, Nov 30.—.Resistance of selling pressure, which manifested Itself at times, was the striking feature of today's dull market. Sales amounted to only 432,000 shares, almost a third occurring in the first- hour. Desultory attacks were directed against, such leaders as United States Steel and some of the representative railways, but those issues invariably rebounded*. The extreme dulness was again attributed to a desire to await the assemblage of congress and the publication of the president's address. Such recent developments as the Canadian government grain seizure and the weakness of exchange on the Teutonic countries evidently wero ig nored as market factors. Cables on Berlin fell to 78%, a decline of from tho low record made yesterday. Austrian exchange was quoted lower with no actual^ transactions. Sterling and francs moved to higher rates for tho current movement, but lires were weak. Special stocks furnished the. only diversion of the session. Diamond Match, in which no local trudes had been recorded for many weeks, rose 2 points to 122. Texas company made an extreme gain of 65% to 2531,4. Mo tors wero on the increase. American •Can ocoinmon was one of the active stocks of the final hour, advancing 2 to. 64, but other prominent war shares were moderately lower. New Haven was strong and made further recovery from its low price, hut most issues of that division moved irregularly. . A deterrent influence in that guar ter was that the action of the inter state commerce commission which denied the application of the trunk Iin and coal* roadfe to continue ownership of vessels plying the great lakes.

WHOLESALE AND REAIL I I VAN il CASE Defense Given Opportunity to Bring Witness in Rebuttal at a Further Hciiing. No witnesses were called for the defense in the case nf Peter Hill against Iho Van Roi Mining company of 'Silverton, for damages feir-injuries sustained while working" in the mine, which was heard yesterday before Judge Forin, as arbitrator. The plaintiff, who was represented by A. Macneil of Fernie, was called to the stand and testified' that while working for the company In Its mine at Silverton on March 14, 1914 a piece of lagging fell from u raise and frac lured his right leg below the knee. He stated that during the past 20 months he hod made repeated efforts to work but that at each trial he had been compelled to give up, owing'to tho pain in his leg. resulting from thc injury. Dr. L. K. Horden testified that he had examined lllll and found that he was still suffering from a severe, injury to his leg and that he was iii no fit* condition to work. Arthur Wheeler, of Trail testified that Schofield & Co., ot, Trail, of wliieh firm he is a member, placed Insurance with the Canada Accident ln-„ surance company of Victoria for tlio Van" Roi Mining company and that the insurance was in force ht the time of Ihe accident. He stated that his firm had not been satisfied with some of the methods tmployed by the Insurance company and "had therefore refused some time ago to place any more Insurance-with it. _The witness swore that on several occasions J*. IT. Taylor, claims adjuster, had refused to recognize claims in the hope that the injured man would neglect to send in his claim within the six months l quired by the Worknicns Compensation act. He then produced letters which it was alleged showed "mala fides" on the parj of the insurance company. The plaintiff on being recalled to the stand declared that he had ibecn visited by J, IT. Taylor in July, 1911, shortly after the accident and that Taylor had offered to settle Ihe claim, immediately and tlnit1 he endeavored' lo Induce him to settle lhe claim for a small anudint nt once, on the grounds that he hat! seen the doctor who had given him- to understand that the Plaintiff would be completely recovered in two weeks. The witness swore that he had made a substantial jlaim on lhe company through Taylor as its agent. Tills point was made by the plaintiff as an excuse for nbt having made a written claim for compensation within the time specified in the act. Judge Forin reserved judgment ami grunted C. P Hamilton, K.C. who appeared for tho defendants, leave to produce J. H. Taylor in rebuttal at a further hearing, the date- of which was not set.

NOTES PROSPERITY |N KOOTENAY AND BOUNDARY "There Kootenay gnat prosperity in tlle nd Boundary mining di.s» trlcts,".de.*lai*i"s F. W. Peters, genera" superintendent of the British Columbia division of the Canadian Pacific railway, who returned yesterday from a trip througii those districts and in the OkanagaT*. says the Vancouver News- Advertiser. "The mines and smelters arc busier now than they have been for years, busier perhaps than they have ever been in the history of these mining districts, and the people nre spending their money for worthy objects. Ai Nelson there wa.s no less than JIT.Ooo subscribed in two days to the Canadian Patriotic fund. Workers everywhere are subscribing liberally to the fund. Tliere has also been a generous subscription to the Canadian war loan during the past week. Mr. Peters journeyed to the Boundary district by way of the Arrow lakes and Kootenay lakes to Rossland and Nelson in company with D. C. Coleman, assistant general manager of westelV lines. While in the Lardo district he went thoroughly into the mat- tor of the contemplated suspension of tlle schedule*- on the Lardo branch between Lardo and Gerrard, a distance of 30 miles. "The people of' the district have appealed to the board of railway commissioners and they are now awaiting its decision, After going over the ground carefully \-ye intimated to the PWpI-T'that tlle company would try and keep the line open under a reduced service.; There are now two trains a week oVer the line." Mr. Peters returned by way of the Kettle valley line to Pentlcton, whence Mr. Coleman started on his return Journey east ward. "The evaporating vegetable plants at Grand Forks, Kelowna, AVrnon nnd Armstrong are doing a fine trade in the manufacture of this food product. These fuctorles have large orders for the armies of Uie allies. The factories are a great boon to the people of those districts, as they afford a market for? their vegetables and give much work locally," said Mr. Peters. G company of the 107th regiment will parade at the armory tonight at 8 o'clock. A meeting of the council of the board of trade will be held tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock.
