WASHINGTON, Oct, 8.—Submarine Warfare at the very doors of the I'nlt- cd States with all Us spectacular features does not necessarily portend further complications with Germany so long as ll is carried on within the limitations of international law. Thai Is tho view of official Washington tonight on the record 0f one days operations, in which none of the ships destroyed appears to have been attacked Without warning or without proper measures having been taken for tlie safety of those on board, Academically, at Icust, in international law, allied ships destroyed by a German submarine Just outside tho three-mile limit and In sight of American shores is no different than a ship destroyed in Ihe Arctic ocean, provided Its destruction is accomplished In accordance with the laws of nations and humanity. But despite 11k facts that U seems to make Utile difference on what par ticular part of the high seas Germany prdSecuts Us newest submarine campaign, officials and diplomats see U situation filled with So many possibilities that it Is almost Impossible tn enumerate them, so long as commcrcn in and out of American ports Is menaced. The presence of a German submarine flotilla near American territorial waters, officiate fear, may ral.su perplexing qUestlohs of neutrality, lit fact a most serious Issue would be raised if the operations of the submarines wore carried on so near American potts as praclically to constitute si blockade. Naval officials thought it possihlo that one submarine could have dono today's work unaided, but they lenned strongly to the belief that probnbly A flotilla of Germany's newest U-bontM Is off the coast. It was regarded uh. significant that German embassy officials, while disclaiming any Information, said they suspected thrre waij more Hum ono submarine. ———" ■^■^.^M rAGE TWO THE DAILY NEWS MONDAY, OCT. 9, LEADING HOTELS OF THE WEST] Where the Traveling Public May Find Superior Accommodations. | THE HUME A la Carte Table d'Hote -GEORGE BENWECL, Prop.

Vessels of the allied nations and neutral bottoms carrying contraband of war scurried to get within tho threo- mile limit of the American shore. Several which had been following the oulslde course, shifted anil made for tlie inside lane. The Stephano oE the Red Cross line, however, was caught outside the 'neutral zone. The destruction of this vessel was the biggest prize of th© day. The craft bad been sold to the Russian government nnd would have been used as an icebreaker after its present trip. Appeal to Halifax. ^Throughput the day and up to lato tonight none of the patrollng fleet maintained by the British and French :o protect their own shipping and American ships carrying munitions of »vnr, had been sighted. Frantic appeals wero sent to Halifax, bift the ommander of the British naval station there refused to divulge what steps wore being taken to meet the submarine attack-. The work 6t the patrollng fleets was directed from Halifax, and ever since the war began cruisers and auxiliary vessels of the Uritish and French navies have moved up and down the coast line. The passengers and crews of destroyed vessels who are being brought in to Newport Xews, were not expected to reach there until midnight. Preparations to care for them had been made by Rear Admiral Tusten M. Knight, commander of the Narragan- seti naval station, and Hear Admiral Elbert C. heaves, commander of the destroyer flotilla now ut Newport. American Tourists on Board. The Stephano belonged to the Red Cross line fleet of the New York, Newfoundland i*t Halifax Steamship company anil was commanded by Cnpt Smith. .Most of the passengers on the Stephano were tourists from New York returning home, All of tlie Americans on the stephano, who were rescued by the destroyer Batch, were transferred tonight to the destroyer Jenkins, The number of Americans iVboard was not stated in tile radio message receive.! here. A wireless message from the torpedo bbat destroyer Ualch at 10 p.m. Sunday said the Stephano was still afloat, six miles southeast of the Nantucket shoals lightship.

The American steamer Kansas was held up 10 miles east of Nantucket lightship, The first wireless warning of tlie presence of a hostile submarine in the steamship lam- was given in the distress simials of the Westpolnt which said it had been torpedoed 80 miles southeast of Nantucket lightship. Naval Men Puzzled. Meantime shipowners In Boston were communicating with their vessels SOa.

The destroyers were ordered out at the first report thai the Westpolnt bad been torpedoed. The theory advanced tpnlffht was that Commander Hans Rose of tho U-68, came to Newport to advise Head Admiral Knight that he wns about to attack hostile shipping and contraband carrying vessels under the rules of international law. Rear Admiral Knight reiterated tonight that Commander Hose's call was one of courtesy, but it was suggested thnt the German commander wished to guard against the lops of life through the aid of American vessels In picking up passengers am) crews of ships destroyed, The Stephano was of stout construction, built especially for the heavy Ice conditions encountered in winter sailings on the Newfoundland coast. It was explained In marine circles that this was Intended uh one <>f the last of the regular sailings of the Stephano prior lo its sailing lor the White sen to work with a large fleet engaged by Russia to keep Archangel open for the receipt of war supplies.

Deal With Situation. slhlo stepstf -yRHQ; Seh ..$nigh,i|eR BOSTON, Mass., Sept. 8.—"All steps possible in the circumstances are being taken to deal with the situation." This message was received hy tho Associated Press tonight from the commander of the British North Atlantic station at Halifax. It was in reply to a request for a statement by him. Appears in Newport. NEWPORT. R, 1., Oet. S—The German submarine U-53, which appeared unexpectedly in tlie harbor here Saturday, was in American waters a little more than three hours, assuming that she continued to sea after submerging. Within that time the German commander paid official visits lo Hear Admiral Austin MeKnight, commandant of tlie second naval district, and Rear Admiral Gleaves, commander of the destroyer forces of the Atlantic fleet, who was on board the flagship, the scout cruiser Birmingham. Both American officers returned the brief call promptly. Wliile those formalities were being exchanged wireless messages were carrying to the ships of the British and French patrol fleet off the coast a warning that a hostile submarine had slipped through their cordon. At the forts anil naval stations the feat of Captain Hans Rose, which had taken every one by surprise, was tho only subject of conversation tonight, and there was much speculation as to her mission. Rumored Bremen Escort. There were rumors, without apparent basis, that the German merchant submarine Bremen, long overdue, might be expected in the wake of the warship. Some naval officers expressed the opinion that the fighter had escorted the Bremen across the ocean, and others that she was searching for the merchant ship. The first question asked by Captain Rose when a. motorboat came along side was: 'Have) you heard from the; Bremen?" When he was told that there was no news of the missing craft his face became grave, but he made no comment. No Supplies Needed. To naval men, the most interesting fact disclosed hy Captain Rose was that he had been at sen IT days and still hail provisions for three months, abundant fuel and needed no repairs, Not so much as a bottle of water was taken aboard, and tlie ship was spick and span. The r-r>3 was first sighted from land at 1:45 o'clock, this afternoon iis Hbe was entering Hie Inner harbor escorted by the United Stntes submarine D-2. The American boat had been outside for maneuvers since morning and was returning when she came up with the German. The D-2, drawing near tlie stranger and mak- Ihg out her type, sent a wireless message to the shore headquarters of Admiral Knight, who relayed word of the appearance of the C-iiH to the navy department at Washington. The American submarine preceded the visitor into the harbor. Newspaper Man Received. A newspaper man who had watched for weeks for the merchant submarine, climbed to the tower of the United States engineers' office nnd with the aid of powerful glasses, made out two guns on the submarine, A few minutes later ho was in a inotor- boat making for the craft, and was rewarded by being taken aboard, The tI-58 bad made her way through the fleet of 37 United States warships. Including destroyers and submarines, to an anchorage 200 yards to the westward of the torpedo station. Captain Rose stood on the quarter deck when the correspondent came aboard, and after Inquiring about the Bremen, said that lie had come in to mall a letter to Count von Bernslorff and asked for the newspaperman's credentials. Tlie latter exhibited an Associated Press badge and was entrusted with the correspondence for the ambassador. The U-.13 Is a monster submarine. Her length is 65 meters, or more than 200 feet, with corresponding .beam. She appeared larger in every way than any of the submarines of the L type that are now operating in Narragan- sett bay. Tlie armament consisted of two guns fore and aft, and four torpedo tubes. Handy to the tubes, which were forward, were eight torpedoes. No Official Communication. WASHINGTON, (let. 8—No official communication from tho German gov- rnment was In tlie despatch sent yesterday to Count von Bernstorff by lent.-Capt. Hans Hose, commander of the German submarine l'-r,3. The despatch which arrived at the embassy today consisted of a personal communication In plain German, regarding pay mon I for some supplies the commander of the submarine thought he might require in Newport. There was said to be no information in It regarding the intentions of the commander or the orders under which he was operating. E. W. Goldstone, Toronto. J. B. Ci-Ierson, Edmonton. A.

The claims are located on a steep hillside, which' rises up from the creek ot an angle of 35 to 40 degrees. The vein cuts the hillside obliquely, or running at an angle of about 45 degrees In the general dlrec tion of the creek, Ab the voln also dips slightly out of tho' hill It only takes a short crosscut tunnel to reach It. The voln Is a well-defined and quartz-filled fissure, occurring In granodlorlte and striking cast and west with a slight dip to the south. It is exposed for several hundred feet by open cuts nnd stripping and appears to havo been traced for a dlstanco of 2000 feet. The gnnguo-fllllng Is quartz and the ore minerals are iron pyrlte, galena, a slight amount of chalcopy- rlte and occasionally trice gold. In addition tn open cuts there arc two tunnels on the property. The tipper tunnel is at an altitude of 7010 feet and Is 105 feet long. The vein varies in size from six inches to four feet and is well mineralised. The lower tunnel is at an altitude of llnoo feet. It Is a crosscut for 135 feet, with an eastern drift for 22 feet and a western drift for 240 feet. The oro shoot on this level varies from 12 laches to 2% feet In width.

During his long residence In that city lie hns had al'ttn- tlant opportunity to study Ihe various aspects of the industry from every angle, being dally thrown In contact with the prospector, mine owner and mini, workers. And of Ills opportunl- ties to secure an ali-round knowledge of ihe Industry he has neglected few. even to hls\p'wn personal disadvantage. Undoubtedly .Mr. Keen's ability and experience In mining fit him pre-eminently for the mines portfolio. He has kept right abrenst of the situation and Is prepared to stop Into Hon.

Pn far iiii can be ascertained, the delay Ikih been unavoidable, however, and hns been entirely due to over- •vvhelmint; onli-rn in the luinds of man- ufac'turors of the I'eltou wheel. After the plant had been desiKiied by TCrwlii tt'ltfto, hydro-electrical (>nffl- neiT. ;t was found that the generator wpeelfled could not be manufactured in less lh:in five months. The size of flip K^nerator was* then changed to one that could reftdily he delivered njid llto Poison wheel specifIcntlons also I'ha'.j.ved. This necessitated special nifnufneturo of the latter, with consequent serious delay. A ,tel«|sTn-m received a few days ago from the manufacturers In Sun Francisco advised that shipment would be made, probably by express, before Oct. 11, In order that Mining Truth might learn exact fact's at first hand, the editor n-ade a specinl trip to the Slocan district and inspected mine ami plant on Sept. 21. Ho was accorded every possible courtesy by Oeneral Manager Oticar White, and givon opportunity to investigate the situation thoroughly, i'.rief'y development and production is being seriously retarded by lack of power, iho water in the mountain streams having partially failed almost sis w**-ol<s earlier than Is usual In the district. It will be remembered that, In,order to provide adequate power, thoroughly muderrilze the milt and connect mine workings witli the railroad at Sandon by aerial tramway, the sum of $70,000 was raised b£ the sale of bonds la-st May. This sum has proved inadequate to the company's needs, owing to delay and our understanding Is ^hat n farther sum of $10,000 has been expended. \Vu are also Informed, upon what wo consider official authority, that this amount lias already beon provided for in micli manner that net earnings may be applied as originally Intended. 9320 Feet ot Pipe. The hydro-electric Installation necessitated 0330 feet of wire-wound wooden pipe, bringing water supply from the south fori; of Carpenter creoK, above lh" Noble Five mill, and also from Cody crock. The latter section is fltiO feel long and the pipe 10 inches in diameter. The Carpenter creek branch \h 1SD0 feet long and the pipe 1G inches in diameter. From the Junction of these branches the supply Is carried In 18-Inch pipe for 6320 foot to tho head of the penstock, !120 feet nbovo th,. (racks of the Canadian Pacini! rallwav. The penstock is composed of O.'iS feet of 16-Inch pipe, 150 feet of ll-inch and 103 feet of 12- Inch. The effective head under full load Is 480 feet, the I feet 3 inch Pel- ton wheel developing 400 horsepower. About 12"i horsepower will be used for operation of tbo compressor, designed to run 1"> slope drills, while the balance, 37."» horsepower, will be taken to the mill from a generator direct-connected with the , wheel. Air will be eouvejted to the mine in 2700 feet of six-inch steel pipe, which has already been laid. At the mill a 2'i-font extension has water lines bad been laid and all hut 2000 feet of the main line. Two ears of pipe were al Nakusp and were scheduled to arrive in Sandon on Sept. 25. It was estimated that three days would complete the job after arrival, so thut it Is quite possible that part of the work has been finished by this time. The power line from generating plant to mine and mill has also been completed. • Main Building Extended. At the mill a J."»-foto extension has been added to the main building nnd a 40x10 foot building erected to house the Dorr thickener tank, which Is now completed. TIiIh will lie operated by a three horsepower individual motor. A filter has also been set up. A 75 horso power motor will be used In the mill as auxiliary to present water power and was ready to be set In place. Mill equipment added includes four vannors, five tables, obntrlfugal pumps, and one -six-foot milt, all placed In position. Tho now tramway is of 10-bucket type, 23000 feet long, with a grfldo of 17.5 por cent. Buckets have tt capacity of 1000 pounds. The syHtom was in running order and seems to be working without a hitch. Capacious bins havo been orocted on tho spur track of the Canadian Pacific and loading direct lo enrs Is therefore possible. The entire hydro-eleetric platlt was designed by aad -constructed under tho supervision of BJrwjn White, son of Oeneral Manager Oscar White, who graduated from Berkeley. Mine Conditions Good. Regarding conditions at the mine It may, w't» believe, be safely sttld that thoy ure satisfactory, Itlsurfltig a long and continuous nm when 'milting and power plants are finally Completed. On No. to, generally known as the mill InMj a. \)lw Wjt ftf m m $°M up about 1000 fee{ aoxithwest of tho Itfrrg'. crosscut tunnel. In places it is -78 feet wide, with a possible averugo oil six oi* seven foet. The ore is mixed*, Tint show's much galena In places arid should make excellent mill feed untlfer imp'-roved milling conditions. A stope.has been carried up .between 40 and HO feet' for a lehgth of approximately 100 feet. On tho No. 0 level the same shoot has'been developed and; Is apparently of about the same Width, though car- rying.app'reclably greater proportion of galejia. Stopes have been carried up for approximately 80 feet, with about 40 feet yet: id go before No. 8 level Is reached. This shoot has. been continuous in all levels from the surface and is now being mined upon Nos. 10, 9, 8 and 5 levels. It has not yet been opened oh No. 7 level. Above No. 5 it has been stoped, so far as clean galena Is concerned! but much zinc ore of good grade Is still available between that level.nnd the surface. Continue Exploration Work. On- No. 8 level drifting is in progress, ,with tho third shoot opened in No. Ii level as the objective. It Is estimated that the work must be con- tlnnefl about 150 feet further. In No. 5 this shoot showed 12 feet of good milling or"e. Tf the present exploratory work should prove successful, It would mean much to the life of the mine, giving approximately 000 feet of virgin "baclw" on the dip of the vein. In estimating the prospective value of the property It should bo remembered; that, the face of the lowest level is still over 1500 feet from the company's end lines to the southwest and 1200 feet on the northeast. In the latter direction It Is expected that the famous sHversitfith shoot will be on- couatered about 600 feet from the long crosscut. Tho latter shoot was among the most prolific In the early history of the Slocan dlstrltt. About 70 men are now employed in all departments, with Oscar 'White, general manager; Thomas Fox, foreman, and Con Stewart, shift boss. Both rnlft'o and mill are only being operated one' shift and there will bo no Increase until the plant Is fully completed. Under present conditions about 70 tons of ore Is being milled each, day; When the new equipment la ready it1 Is estimated that from 165 to 175 tons will be put through, During the month of August five carloads of silver-lead concentrates, slimes and crude oro, aggregating 188 tons, were shipped, with net returns of $15,702.12. Operating expenses were $9,91!).86, indicating a profit of $5782.2G, under very adverse conditions. Concentrates were worth (80.10 per ton; slimes $68.92 and crude ore $120. No account is taken of shipments of zinc concentrates, amounting to 111 tons. It is not expected that this product will show In excess of $10 profit until retreated In the now flotation plant. Output Will Be $35,000 Monthly. These figures seem to indicate that under normal conditions the output will reach approximately $35,000 per month, with operating expenses that should not exceed $12,000 at the out - side. To this must be added profit from zinc concentrates brought up to a standard that will render the product readily saleable at a fair margin, of profit. Just now sample shipments are being treated in the magnetic separator plant, at Kaslo and results should be available within the next two1 weeks. '\. ' ' , ' ■*&. "[' Summed up It seems reasonable td expect that both mine and mill will b» running full time by NoV. 1' In'thedS event profits of over $20,000 a mOhth should be assured from silver-lead ores alone, . with the furffier possibility tftat the present bond issue may be retired by Mttrcli Or April otffiext year. After that there appears ttj'b# no physical reason why one of Slochn's famous old producers should not'-re- sumo disbursements of regular 'dividends. Much depends, of course, upon the course of the spelter market'.'and ability of milling equipment to .btliitt zine concentrates to a satisfactory tenor. Income from this source .under favorable conditions , may swell earning power very materially. * \ SPOKANE CLOSING QUOTATI&Nfr. (Reported by St. Denis & Lawrence.)

The resolution of the associated boards of trade asking that the government pass legislation providing for a "Turn'to the Right" rule of the road should be brought up at the next session of the legislature and immediate action taken. The Daily News knows of no sound argument against making the change. There are forceful reasons why the "Turn to the Left" rule should be discarded. British Columbia Is one of two or three provinces in Canada which still employ the "Turn to the Left" rule. It Is the only province In the west which does so. To the south, throughout the United jStates, the rule is "Turn to the Right." The same rule applies in the praiSele provinces. To compel automoblllsts from the United States and the prairie provinces who arc coming to British Columbia in increasing numbers, to remember constantly that they must carry out a rule of the road directly opposite to that to which they are accustomed is placing upon them entirely needless Inconvenience and it is an Invitation to accidents. Let British Columbia's rule of the road be made "Turn to the Right" just lis soon as the legislature can put through the necessary bill. THE SUBMARINE WAR ON THE AMERICAN COAST. Germany has carried out its threats to send submarines to the Atlantic coast of the United States and sink merchant ships within sight of American territory. About half a score of vessels is the day's bag. The raid gives the United States cause for thought. To those Americans who have held with George Washington that Americans were not concerned with European wars and politics tho raid of the U-boat or IT-buats "will come as a particularly striking incident. It brings the United States virtuatly into direct physical contact With the struggle in Europe. It sug- ger-As the (extent of the vdefensive measures which the United States must take If It is to be prepared against German aggression. It drives home the truth that tho entente nations are fighting the battles of the United Stales as well as those of the email nations of Europe, With Germany completely defeated the United States will be very much safer than it would be with a Germany triumphant. It may be said that the raid is a sporadic affair of very little naval sig- hificance, that submarines could not operate successfully on a* sustained scale so far from their bases. That is true at tlie present time, but submarine warfare Is only at its initial stages of development. In any event South America possesses excellent bases upon which Germany has already cast lunging eyes, INTEGRITY AS A PERSONAL AND BUSINESS ASSET. Integrity begets the confidence without Which no business or individual can succeed. Possibly the importance of what is known In general terms as "confidence" is sometimes lost sight of. No man wants to deal with another unless he has confidence in him. Certainly h« will not pick out as the party of the aeconri part in a transaction a man in whose honesty and integrity he bus no confidence. Maintenance of confidence of fellow men is peifttatjs the groatest personal und buslnejsfc" asset that can be possessed. Integrity Is the only sound base of successful finance and business—large oi^small—and of satisfactory personal relationships. The German submarine or submarines on the American coast may have a short career, but there is no doubt about it being a merry one. The steamer Stephano, sunk by a German submarine yesterday, belonged to the Red Cross lino. The Red Cross seems to have a remarkable attraction for German bombs, bullets, shells and torpedoes. It is small comfort to the Bulgarians, who are daily losing more and more of their territory to the Russians und Rumanians, to learn that tho Austro-Gormans are driving the Rumnninns back on the northwest front. It is not exactly surprising that) the British naval commander at Halifax should refuse to divulge details of tho plans he is carrying out to.cope with the submarine menace in the Atlantic. British naval and military officers gave up that practise after the South African war. Two American ships have been sunk In European waters by German submarines. Almost within the three-mile limit neutral ships were destroyed by the Germans yesterday without compliance with the rules of "cruiser warfare" which Germany promised the United States it would observe. President Wilson appears to have another problem on his hands. The lone of the Berlin report yesterday concerning the operations on tho western front indicates that the British did not gain as much ground as the Germans feared they would when the latest offensive movement commenced. Germany no doubt considers itself lucky to have lost to Gen. Halg nothing more than one village and some thousands of yards of trenches and a thousand or so of prisoners iu the past two days. t WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING. $ The Deadly Pistol. Why not stop the manufacture and sale of pistols altogether? What good are they to anybody? More than half the crimes of bodily violence in the civilized world are committed by pistols and many of them would not be committed at all, or would not prove fatal, but for tho convenience of pistols.—Ottawa Journal. Hypothetical Questions. A correspondent takes mc to task for asking, "What would Bismurck, if hewere stilt with us, think of the action of Rumania in joining the allies?" This reminds him, he says, of a question sot in a school examination paper designed to test "general intelligence" It ran: "If Oliver Cromwell were alive now, what part do you think lu; would take In the politics of the day?" One little boy of a matter-of-fact disposition, who seems to have suspected that he was being trifled with, answered : "If (diver Cromwell were still alive he would be much too old to take any part In politics."—Westminster Gazette. A Bouquet. Here's a bouquet to the Britishers from New York Life: "Take them big and large, the bad with tlie good, the crooked with the straight, the ICnglish seem to have the best claim lo be rated the greatest people now on earth. They combine more power with more character, more vigor with more wise compunctions than any other people." Life has been most friendly ever since the start of tho row. All the same, the economlum is suggestive of tlie impression which tlie British effort In the war is making upon intelligent outsiders. Before this war, even Life would not have said as much, or anything like it.—Ottawa Journal. COLD STORAGE. THE DISTRICT IS PROUD OF ITS GALLANT BOYS. Kootenay-And Boundary have strong reasons for feeling pride In the splendid record the men from this district are making for themselves at the front. Early in the war companies of wen from Kootenay and Boundary won Immortal fame at Ypres and the struggles which followed It, In engagement after engagement and In the dally routine work of the trenches the' boyH from this district huve displayed an initiative and gallantry which has won for them the commendations of thciif commanding officers n,nd. made their home people proud of them. The latest example is that of Lieut. Donald McQunrrip, who, with another ■Reliant fellow who Is well known In Mrs. MulUns—What's the matter, Mrs. Jones? Mrs. Jones—Why, this young varmint 'as swallowed a cartridge and 1 can't wallop him for tear It goes off. A tramp knocked at a farmer's door and called for something to eat. "Are you a Christian," asked the good-hearted countryman. "Can't you tell?" answered the man. "Look at the holes worn In the knees of my pants. What do they prove?" The farmer's wife promptly brought out tlie food and the tramp turned to go. "Weill Well!" asked tho farmer. What made those holes in tho back of your pants?" "Backsliding" replied the tramp, as he hurried on. 'Far In arrenrs as Quebec Is in the matter of volunteering for overseas service, we believe that her enlistments could be brought up to her full quota if Sir Wilfrid Laurier would apply himself with the same earnestness'to the getting of French-Canadian recruits as he does to the getting of French-Canadian votes. But not only Is he too much preoccupied with the getting of votos to exert much influence in behalf of recruiting, but he evidently believes that to make earnest appeals for .recruits in that province wold be to drive away votes. If it were not so why did lie speak so big to his Montreal audlom-p about his intention to fight militarism after the war4 The only militarism that any British subject is now called upon to fight, the only militarism from which the world has anything to fear, is the militarism against which loyal young Canadians are now giving up their lives in France. The public man who stands up in Quebec and brands militarism as a Canadian evil is no better than a defender of shirking—nay, he is ten times worse. If the British militarism Sir Wilfrid Laurier proposes to deliver us from bad had Its way, and the wise patriotism of Lord Roberts had been acted upon in time, many a gallant Canadian lad who is now lying low on the battlefields of France would be alive and well in the bosom of his family today. If In the midsummer of. 1914 Britain had had a million men trained on Lord Roberts' national service scheme, Germany would not have launched this terrible war on the world. But thnt militarism which would have saved the Empire and Europe without striking a blow is pictured by Sir Wilfrid Laurier as the dragon he proposes to slay. Is that not enough to ring down the curtain on the public life of this politician? Sir Wilfrid's one object appears to be the arraying of the whole of Quebec's parliamentary delegation under his leadership. In command of that he feels that bo would be in a position to dominate Canadian politics. He calculates that in English-speaking Can ada tlie party spirit will still play into his hands. Seemingly he himself is so intent upon the objects of his ambition that he forgets to note the working of other influences than those of party passion. It Is not of his chances in politics, not of his desire to return to the sent of power, not of his petty planning nnd miserable prating against militarism they are thinking. They are thinking of Canada's peril, of their sons nnd kinsmen at the front, and many of them nre mourning bravo youths of their blood they will never see again. What makes him more absent-minded about everything but the race for office Is the fact that he has a keen rival for control in Quebec In the person of his disciple and former lieutenant, Henri Bourassi. Bourassa pursues with boldness tho line of which Laurier led him with wariness. When Sir Wilfrid was talking about the time Canada should fall away from Britain as the ripe fruit drops from the parent tree, his impressionable young follower was learning the lession. When Sir. Wilfrid took so stiff a stand against a Canadian contingent being sent to South Africa, Bourassa was still In the party fold and strongly supporting him. When Sir Wilfrid bad at last to give way before the roused Canadian feeling and let the contingent go as a charge upon Britain, Bourassa was disbusted. Now both are on the anti-mllltnrlsin plank com. peting for tlie political primacy in Quebec, and Sir Wilfrid has to come nut more openly, as he did in Montreal the other night, if he is not to lot the laurels be snatched from him by his less mealy-mouthod rival. How will it end? As Bourassa waxes bolder and more seditious, Sir Wilfrid will have to choose whether he shall outdo him or get out of the contest. They are both appealing to the same sentiment. —Toronto Mall and Umpire. DEPRESSED NAIL MARKET. >i Ilindenburg, it seems, was not such a popular hero :is lie was when lie waa fighting ltusslans whose ammunition had given out. An American who has just returned from Germany speaks of the sad condition of tlie great I-llndcuburg statue of wood, that was to lie encased in gold, silver and copper, by the process of driving nails from the sale of which the Red Cross was to derive enormous profit. Nobody wants lo drive nails just now, it seems; so the field marshal stands, looking very forlorn and weather-beaten, half of wood and half of metal spots, and there are no worshipers at bis shrine. I'erhaps if Ilindenburg can manage another "thrust" the nail market will look up again in Germany —Montreal Herald. LONG JOURNEY TO ENLIST. VICTORIA, B.

[♦♦♦« LMtWING GUM FOR THE ARMYj ♦♦♦♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ ■♦ ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦-♦ A According to very remarkable figures just published, the English have suddenly become a nation of gum- chewers, and the leading manufacturers ure able to claim that within six months they have increased their monthly sales from throe million to twenty million bars. It has boon suggested that the habit has been Intro duced by the Canadian soldiers, who of course, share the Americans' fond noss for chewing gum but I am assur ed that they have nothing to do with It. Tho spread of the habit is purely a triumph of natural weakness and advertising. The most enthusiastic adherents—a. good word—are said to be not women clerks, but soldiers an& munition workers,, with the navy a fulr third, it seems that for the past four years chewing gum has been sold at army and navy canteens, but It was not until this last great advnnce that It was Issued as an army ration. The soldiers' theory is. that it steadies his nerves to have something to chew on and It certainly keeps Ills otherwise parched throat moist ' In times uf stress.

MHMMMMtHMtt f-*-*- Half a century ago Mark Twain; first faced an audience to deliver n lectvtre. Mr. Clemens had spent some weeks as a newspaper correspondent! in the Sandwich islands, and upon his return to San Francisco his friends urged him to deliver a lecture dealing with his experiences nnd observations. Young Mark yielded to their solicitations, hired a hull, and Issued an announcement which concluded: "A splendid orchestra is in town but has not bjen engngel. Also a den of ferocious ^wiifltocasts will be on exhibition jfilttie next block. A grand torchlight ^procession may lie expected;'in fact the public are privileged to inspect whatever .they please. Doors open at seven o'clock, the trouble to begin nt eight o'clock." As the fateful hour approached the humorist grow more .and more despondent ubont his venture, and when he wont to the hall he expected to find It empty. Instead it wjs packed full of people. For oh instant Mark was afflicted with stage fright, and he wns unable in say a word. Then the audience broke Into a roar of welcome, and Ihe lecturer recovered his poise. His lecture that night was the first of many, but it Is doubtful If ho ever scored quite so complete n triumph as on that night of his debut ns a public speaker. LLOYD GEORGE'S ANTI-CLIMAX J Londoners are telling a story of Lloyd George—who wont to Wales to take the chair at tho song festival; who was received by Ids adoring fellow countrymen in the most rapturous manner; who moved these thousand; of souls to tears and to cheers and to laughter; and got himself and all the ornithologists into a mess on the subject of nightingales. The Sketch says: "It was a good idea to talk about the nightingale. Mr. Lloyd George, I have no doubt, thought it out on the way down and knew he had hit on a good thing. So he dashed at it. He took hold of the nightingale hy both wings and made groat play with the unfortunate bird. 'It had been ordained,1 ho said 'that the best singer among the birds of Britain should Rive its song In the night nnd. according to legend that sweet, song is a song of triumph over pain.' "Very pretty and very charming, if only ho had stopped there. But he couldn't. He had to elaborate this pretty fancy. 'There are no nightingales Ibis side of the Severn.' ho continued.

It Is a wonder they were not twice the number, for It Is nothing short of a miracle how one escapes with so many shells nnd bullets flying around. "I have been much surprised at the work of our artillery. The trenches at this part pf the line are about 150 yards apart and yet our gunners who are two or three miles in the rear. land shells right on the German line, without hitting our own. Thanks to Lloyd George, or somebody, there is all kinds of ummunlllon, Judging by the number of shells the Mrltish put over. They send seven or eight for every one of the Germans' that come back, "I do net mind in the least confessing that the first time they begun bursting over me I felt as If I would like to mnke u quick movement, somewhere else and any man who «ays he Is not nervous is u Mar. However, it is wonderful how quickly one gels used to It though. The shelling does not worry me in the least now. "I hnve a very interesting relic I would like to send you. It Is my mess tin, which was shot out of my hand hy the same shrnpne] shell that wounded Hilly Swnnnell. The tin did not mntter a dnmn.Tnit I lost my supper.

McLeod, Mickey McCnndllsh and myself, I thought the earth had opened up when It exploded, but It only smothered us with mud. "OUr nlr men are doing wonderful work nnd fly around over the German lines regardless of their guns. We very rarely see n Germnn machine over our lines.

PLAN TO PRESS WAR TO VICTORIOUS PEACE ALEXANDRIA, Egypt—On the see,- ond.,anniversary of tho war a meeting was held at the Savoy hotel, Alexandria, under the chairmanship of i». A. Cameron, the British consul-general, for the purpose of passing the fallowing resolution:, That on this second anniversary of the declaration of ti righteous war this meeting records Ms Inflexible determination to continue to a victorious end the struggle in maintenance of those Ideals of liberty and Justice which are the common and sacred cause of the allies. In addition to the consul-general Sit' Ronald Graham, advisor to (be ministry of the Interior, Bor.ton I'asha, the postmaster general, ami doctor Granville, direct or-genera I of Alexandria municipality, were present. In his speech from tho chair, Mr, Cameron, briefly surveying the two years of the war, appealed to Ids hearers to uphold as civilians those standards which the allied armies were righting for. We must never lose our Influence for good, ho said, or our authority and control in Alexandria. These are responsibilities thrown upon us by the protectorate: above all, us business men, wc must insist that the standard of commercial integrity shall be as high in this town as In the city of London. Passing lo wider (juestions, ho continued, There are few communities more directly interested than ourselves In the successful Issue or this war. A stalemate or a patched up pence would make Egypt almost untenable for lis, An unfinished war would leave this ensftrh end of ihe Mediterranean unsafe for our shipping, which would soon be driven lo use (he cape route, and then the Siiox canal, which always rei|aires dredging somewhere every other day, would soon sill up with sund and lost- jts importance. In connection with this Mr. Cameron described a meeting he once bad with Dr. Carl Peters. Ilo unite approved of our prisence in this country, said Mr. Cameron, but added that Germany, by holding the south end of the great lake, controlled our policy in Egypt, because at any moment she Could tap the waters of the lake and make an outlet on the south. Let us be thankful, then, concluded Mr. Cameron, for Smuts' victories which have placed the '"hole lake in our possession. Sir Ronald Graham paid a tt-lbillo to Die loyalty of Egypt anil India during the war. Germany had hoped, said sir Ronald thai India and Egypt would prove troublesome to Kngland, but their intrigues were defeated, Uol alone by administrative action, but rather owing to (he sound good sense at the populations which they sought to disturb, India had proved her loyalty. Egypt under the Influence of ii wise and far-sighted prime, remained perfectly (pilot and loyal, and would be ready to respond upon nny call made upon her. After furlher speeches. Ineludingune from Sir Alexander Halrd. the resolution was put tn the meeting ami carried. BRITISH TRADE IN SOUTHERN AMERICAS LONDON, England The trade and industry commission of the Royal Colonial Institute has received a statement regarding the possible extension of llrltlsh trade In the Southern Am- erieas. In tin- opinion of the write)' Itritish trade i,..s Inst ground in these countries because there are too few purely itritish Importing houses. In Central America, he -says, and In Mox- Icn and South American countries, the stores are largely in the hands of Germans, These firms, pursuing the national idea, always prefer to Import from Germany, and they have :>. definite policy of promoting German trade. Mosl of tin- Get-man firms, he continues, are of mush room growth. Voting men have come out for a small ; alary ot uhulll 200 marks, or even less, per mouth.

The'snmo thing applies lo the agricultural pari of these countries where large numbers uf sugar estates ale owned bj the Germans.

PAGE SIX THE DAILY tfEWfc >.......♦.»» SPORT »■»*-»-»-»♦♦♦♦-» J LOST IN NINTH Brooklyn Quick to Take Advantage of Unexpected Break in Boston's Wonderful Playing. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) BOSTON, Oct. 9.—Boston's wonderful bnselmll machine threatened to break down In thc ninth.inning of Saturday's game after the Rod Sox ap- iparenlly had the game safely won. ,'.'' This surprising break, of which the ■'invading team was ijulck to take advantage, was the feature of an otherwise, ordinary baseball game, which the-Red Sox won C to 5. When Dnubert, the first Brooklyn batsman, stepped to the plate in the opening half id' the ninth inning, the spectators were beginning to leave the Braves' field, buf they hulled in their tracks as Shore passed the batter and Casey Steugal sent him to second with u clean single. A lone Brooklyn rooter began to beat upon a tin pun and 'here and there were cries of encouragement for the National league champions, but the cheers died away as Wheat forced Dauberl at third. Shore, however, could not control thc bull us he hud done curlier In the game and bit Cutsliaw. Mowrey arose to the occasion with a bounder, which .lanvrin could not handle, and Stengel and Wheat crossed the plate. Fears of the Boston fans grew when Olscn beat out, an infield bit and they were scarcely relieved when Chief Meyers fouled ont. Jlerkle, batting for Proffer, outwalted Shore and walked, forcing in Cutsliaw with the third, run of the Inning. There wns not a sound from the thousands when Manager Carlgan ordered Shore from the box and substituted Mays. Meyers, Brooklyn's lend-off batter, scratched an Infield hit, scoring Mowrey and the Na- iionals were within a run of tying the .score with the bases stii loaded. , Daubert came to the plate for the second time in the inning nnd every one of the thousands of spectators held his breath as the Brooklyn captain hit an ugly bounder to Scott. The shortstop speared the ball as It leaped from the turf, and without pausing even to sight whipped it to Hoblitzell Daubert sliding into the bag headfirst, 'appeared to arrive with the plashing ball, but there was a great cheer when Umpire O'Day, who fairly overhung the base, signalled Ihe third out and the ending of the game.

EDMUNDS, England— I-oid Montagu of l-tenlieu, .speaking on thc air service recently at Bury St. Kdmunds, Haiti statements had been .made in tho house of commons hy Ma- 'jor Balrd with reference to the number of zeppelins which had hecn brought down. The number was of no real importance. "What was important i the number now owned by CJer- iniiny. Although their anti-aircraft armament had been Improved and was still being improved, thercy was- still nut enough of it. It was not sufi'i- ilently powerful, and its organization was far from perfect. With regard to tho anti-airerart corps, thero had been no well thought out policy. He thought they would need much more powerful anti-aircraft guns, and a much higher state of organization in the air service. In addition to tho older type, Germany was now building super-zeppelins, three or four of which would he available about the beginning or middle of ictnbor, and he believed there were wo out ulready, one of them having if'tually maneuvered over the Xorth sea. Ho had obtained information of the super-zeppelihs. Of the older type, which were capable of raiding, tlie Germans probably owned -10, of which 15 were, perhaps, really available for harassing this country. The new zeppelins were a great advance on them in lour directions. They had range, carrying capacity, speed, and power of climbing, They biid a,capacity in round figures, of nearly 2,000,000 cubic feet, their length was 7S0 feet and their beam HO feet. Their maximum speed was Gg miles an hour, cruising ■speed 3fi miles, radius with half load, 3,000 miles and maximum carrying capacity in bombs for such purposes as visiting England, five tons. Ho far as his Infovmntion went, they were able to ascend 17,000 feet, when their load was discharged and their six or seven engines were working, The engines were over jji.OOO horsepower, and they were armed with cpiiek-firers and machine guns, bow and stern, and with machine guns on the top of tho envelope for dealing with aeroplane attacks from above. In normal circumstances they ■ carried from 30 to 3» crew. Those particulars showed how far tlie Germans were relying—he hoped falsely—upon zeppelins as a means of harrasing the British, lie believed this type would be improved on next year. He believed the greatest use of the airship In future would bo as the eyes of a fleet. If they hud a proper service of rigid airships there would not be half tho necessity for imperiling their cruisers acting as scouts. Those lost had nearly all been sent out on missions of reconnaissance. BIRMINGHAM RELIEF WORK BIRMINGHAM, England—An Important step In the coordination of the various aid societies in Brmingham has recently taken place in the formal registration of ihe Birmingham t'itizons j-ociety under the companies net*. The new organization will lake over alt the relief work previously done by a number of agencies such as thc citizens committee, the city Aid society and abe Charity Organization society. The civil work undertaken has reference to the prevention and relief of dlsjr;e:)!j throughout the city, but the perety will also act as thc local representative of the government committee for the prevention and relief of distress due to the war which administers (lie Prince of Wales' national relief fund, and further, will be the local representative of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Families association and the Soldiers' and Sailors' Help society.

SWISS PAPER ON KfittiYE, Switzerland—The Horner Tagwacht has drawn the attention of Ms renders to the account published by a Basle paper recently of an Inter- view grunted its representative by Lord Robert Cecil, who defended the measures taken hy the entente powers wilh regard to the transportation of supplies to Switzerland, and added thnt he regretted to hnve to say that the situation bad been rendered more difficult by the fact that the Swiss government, had not always "felt itself .strong enough In every case to prevent the exportation to the enemy of goods coming under control of the S. S. S." When ;l diplomatist uses such words, wrote the official organ of the Swiss Socialist party, their significance will be understood forthwith. They are a formal accusation, and give no cause for surprise when certain facts, and particularly the latest incident of the soya beans are recalled. Everything, Including dllatoriness, has to be atoned for In the end. If firm action had been taken in tlie beginning and the Importance of a systematic organization of internal economic life bad been realized, these complaints would not have been heard. Today the situation is such that the laxity of the Swiss authorities with regard to smuggling and speculation has provided England and France with a welcome pretext for cutting off the transportation of foodstuffs. That would not have been possible had a different conception prevailed of economic policy and of the obligations owiiiK* to the home country as well as to other lands, and it must be said with rogrel that it is the attitude of the bourgeois government and of the capitalist class that has pro- pared tho ground for the reprisals of [lie entente. We are justified In making this statement, the Horner Tagwacht continued, because we have dwelt almost daily for months past on Ihe eon.se- i|0euces of the smuggling trade and the lack of supervision and have boon attacked by the bourgeois press by way pf thanks for our warnings and our demands for the curbing of profil Interests. Now we are faced with the coliseum?necs, and It is comprehensible that the papers which ordinarily make much of such incidents liave suppressed the Interview with Lord Robert Cecil In a perfectly Irresponsible manner they are continuing their policy of concealment, and ale silent concerning :<, conversation of the greatest .significance. The only tiling that could now be done, the Tagwacht added, was to create guarantees for Hie future, and the people of Switzerland themselves, it maintained, had a right to see that a stop was put to tho policy hitherto pursued before the country found itself dragged Into the war. Meanwhile it contended that the entente should have demanded such guarantees instead of having recourse tn the stoppage of transportation. Witfi such measures as those which have been the outcome of the Paris negotiations, it wrote, one creates no workable mutual relations, but only justifiable Ill-will mid bitterness. Paper Manufacturer Explains Causes of the High Cost of Material, WINNIPEG.—The annual meeting of the Western Associated Press Limited, held here, brought together a representative gathering of newspaper publishers from nil over western Canada. The meeting this morning was addressed'hy E. W. Backus, president of the Fort Frances Paper & Pulp company, on the news print, situation, and subsequently the visitors were entertained ut luncheon by the Winnipeg daily publishers. Election of officers will take placo this afternoon. Prices Increase. Mr. Backus gave the reason for the shortage- and iprlce increase. Mill labor was scarce and wages high; materials entering Into the manufacture of news print had gone up several hundred percent; the advertising patronage of tho large American dailies had been growing fast, consequently their consumption of news print was constantly increasing. For the latter cause the mills were unable lo gather a reserve supply. The paper manufacturers were each year being forced to go farther front their mills for their wood. Too much reading was being given for the amount of advertising carried. Publishers would be forced to change their tactics. Those who could not agree to do would find themselves up against a serious proposition. It was not a case of doins* what they would like to do, but what they would lie forced to do, Mr. Backus cited instances of several large American dailies that were paying over 300 per cent: more for their news print supply today than they were a year ago. Their profits had not only been wiped away, but they were now finding themselves facing a deficit. Tho only alternative, he thought, was strict economy. This was Imperative if tlie newspapers were to remain In business. Drastic Steps. Tlie publishers were unanimous in declaring that the situation was very grave, and united in agreeing that drastic steps must be taken to meet tlie conditions with which they are ed. Everything entering Into the manufacture of a newspaper, ii was pointed out, has risen in price to such an extent that the wages, cost of metal, ink, etc., had greatly increased. Even the small item of twine exacted a heavy toll from the paper having any circulation worth while, it was the seneral opinion') that extra revenue would have to be secured from some soruce. The burden could not lie placed wholly on the advertisers; the reader must bear a share. The subscription price of nearly every newspaper was too low. Newspapers wero the only commodity selling below cost and publishers if they desired to see their newspapers continue in existence would have to adopt elementary business laws in the operation of their plants.

BASIS OF CLAIM RUMANIA MAKES ON TRANSYLVANIA BUDAPEST, Hungary.—In vi<>\\- of the well-known aspirations of Rumania in the direction of Transylvania, it is desirable to know the basis of P.u- maaian claims, and also the reasons for the strong bold which Transylvania lias upon the hearts of all Hungarians, Tho Rumanians claim that as more than half of tin- population consists of people of their race, Transylvania, or at least a Kreat part of it, should be annexed to Rumania, The total population of Transylvania is about 2,- 700,000. Of these, about one and a half millions are Rumanians, the remainder consisting for the most part of Magyars, Including: the Szckiers, with some l!00,000 Saxons, and a few Servians, Ru then tans, Bulgarians and Greeks. The country is some IB,300 square miles in area, and eonslts of a central plateau, with very fertile soil, suitable for corn growing, the whole being surrounded by a ring of mountains which are rich in many kinds of minerals and sustain a large mining population. The name "Transylvania" was given to the country by the Romans and means "the land beyond the forest," but the Hungarians call it "Krdoly," that Is, the forest borderland, while tbo Rumanians use the name "Ardealu," which has the same meaning. Down to the end of the third century A. D. Transylvania formed part of tlie Roman province of Lacln, but the Romans were then driven out by the Goths and forced to cross the Danube Ror many centuries after that, Transylvania bad not a settled population; it was the scene of constant warfare and was occupied by various races In quick succession as victory save them a brief tenure, it was in the tenth century that Transylvania was occupied bv men of I be Magyar race, and towards the end of the eleventh century it was united to Hungary, Later, in the reign of King Oeza II. U81-1182), Saxon colonists were invited by the monarch to settle In the province where they were giVen many privileges, it was owius to this that at the present day such a Iitrgo Saxon element Is found in Transylvania. The Szckiers are racially one with the Magyars. Their name Szckler is not a racial appellation; il is derived from the work Szck a seat, or military station) and indicates that they were defenders of the frontier. The Magyars, Szckiers and Saxons early formed a "fraternal union," with the object of defending their country from the hordes of Turks nnd Tartars who attacked It. Transylvania, wns a Strong bulwark which stemmed the rising tide of Invasion and saved all Furopo from being submerged beneath a flood of paganism, it was not until the twelfth century that the Human la as, of Watlaehlans, entered Transylvania, a, people who, though believing themselves to be of puro Uoipan descent, were really a mixture of various Slavonic and Latin elements, As the Byzantine empire Increased in power, the Rumanians were driven from their settlements In the Balkans and sought shelter In Transylvania. Centuries later, after the Turks had built up Ihelr power n the Balkans, fresh hosts of Ru <&> PAGE SEVEN Thanksgiving Day, 1916 THANKSGIVING DAY THIS YEAR SHOULD BE ONE OF REAL THANKS THAT WE HAVE BEEN SPARED THE HORRORS OP WAR WHICH MANY OP OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN THE OLD LAND HAVE HAD TO ENDURE.

From time to time Greeks, Bulgarians and Servians also fled from Turkish persecution to the same place of refuge, anil Hungary owes her racial difficulties very largely to her generous hospitality in past centuries. The "fraternal union'1 succeeded in keeping off the Turks until tlie year 1528, when Hungary was defeated, anil the Turks separated Transylvania from Hungary and made it aa independent principality. The people were allowed to elect their prince, subject to Turkish approval, and invariably a Hungarian prince was elected. As a result of this, Transylvania came to lie the rallying ground for Hungarian nationalism and to -bo more llun^ garlnn than Hungary proper, for the western part of Hungary was under Hapsburg domination and In constant danger of being entirely Germanized, The central portion was in tlie bands of the Turks, so it was only in Transylvania that the Hungarian national spirit could find a home. The princes of Transylvania naturally gathered around them nobles of the Magyar race and their courts became fervently national in character. Among the Tran- sylvnnian princes were some of tho greatest men that Hungary has produced, men who are the country pride; like Bathory, Bethlen. Itakoczy and many others, who were true patrons of learning, and whose courts became famous throughoul Europe for their high level of culture. The Hungarian genius penetrated the whole life of Transylvania, its art, laiiKitage, literature, habits and customs, down to the minutest details, to such an extent that Transylvania came to be, more than any other part of Hungary, the most chnractorisld expression of the Hungarian spirit. The government has appointed n pecijil commission to investigate con- lltlolis relating to delivering coal to ousting vessels in the maritime pro- ince waters.
