The rescued on board numbered 29 first class, 29 second class and 101 third class passengers and 237 of the crew. Thirty-seven survivors were left at Ri- mouski, which would make a total of 433 saved. As revised figures show 1367 persons to have been on the vesesl this makes the probable number of lost 934.

When the last despatches arrived early this morning as to the names of those saved all hope waB extinguished that the seven New Westminster people had been picked up by the two relief boats.

The statement which the general manager of the Merchants Bank of Canada has just placed before its shareholders, will be good reading to them, as it is to all who are interested in Canada's commercial progress. Despite the wise caution, which the conservative, progressive management had to exercise during the year, even more than usually troublous, profits were practically the same as those of 1912. The $1,218,964.45 realized shows 17.8 per cent on the average capital employed during the twelve months; the bank's capital now stands at $7,000,000, and its rest at the same figure. The Merchants Bank of Canada has been an important factor in the development of western Canada, and its branches are scattered very generously throughout the province of Manitoba, Alberta, Saskatchewan and British Columbia. The increased capitalization will doubtless enable the Merchants to still further both assist in this development and be helped by it. The president, and his co-directors, have good reason to be satisfied with the showing made, while the public will see once more that with good management, and the extended knowledge and division of risk which a bank like the Merchants achieves through its numerous and widely scattered branches, enables it to make good progress, even if in certain sections, conditions are quite unfavorable. As the real "wild and woolly," Albania has the Canadian west backed clean off the hustings. The recent forest fires did away with a lot of bridges in Coquitlam. What that municipality now needs is an up-to-date dentist A Swede in Burnaby tried to commit suicide by cutting his throat because, he said, he was tired of living. The authorities sent him to Vancouver. According to press dispatches the fall of Huerta has been near at hand for about a year, but people are still waiting for the old dictator to take the tumble. So the Northern Pacific is going to enter New Westminster in the near future! Well, well, there's getting to be so many of them we can't keep track of 'em.

If peace has its armies, as the ��ood book Bays, what ahrf become of lhe army, an ; the army followers than ought to bo here spending money anil makim* thing's hum'. A sense of disappointment, not to ray of resentment, broods over the summer landscape. The daffodils nod their heads in Queen Victoria pari], mid the tulips hang out their flaming tigua's, but nobody seems to flag an 1 ���-".' ! Ji m. i i. ��� extra dollar. Outside the peace- nakers and their secretaries, the newspaper correspondents, nnd the ecre Borvlce men, the conference ir" attracted few visitors. The peacemakers, counting mediators, delegates, j secretaries and all number perhaps a hundred; t'.-e newspaper men and de- i tectlvi s number, say, a hundred more. 1 What are two hundred people to Niagara Kails, which has an appetite ' ir tourists like the bottomless pit? One hotel, the Clifton, swallows them l ,ip, and yawns for more. What ia [rails wants Is enough to go round too hard to be dodging money that way. To make matters worse, tbe town ! of Niagara Falls, N. V., does most of the things that the town of Niagara Kails, Out., has neglected to do. It drapes itself lovingly around the; American fall, north, south, each and \ west Uncle Sam bounds his share of tbe seventh wonder of the world with : hotels, saloons, restaurants., picture theatres, candy kitchens and other traps for the humble dollar. The' shops cluster where the dollars are thickest and that the way it ought to! bo if the scenery like Niagara Kails | is to draw a competent dividend. You don't catch the Yankees making the mistake of preserving the landscaps by locating the marts of trade two miles and a half away from the trading centre. Landscape gardening is all right, but It has given Niagara Kails. Ont., the worst of it by crowding it back from the easy money. No wonder that the citizens are bitter against art. Some of the most prominent caibmon i ntown have not a good word to sny for It, such a crimp has art put In their business. Spencers Across River. As if their cup of corrow were not full enough fate and iMr. Bryan have played the Canadian town another j dirty trick by assigning the American delegates to the American side of the I river. They will have a big room In I | the Clifton house, a sort of caucus! | room to think and chat in. they will spendln the working day in Canada I snd take lunch here, but they will go j home to the United States for dinner! land recreation. It may be inconven-f lent not to have all the peacemakers together all the time, hut it will be patriotic to keep as much of the good ' American money as possible under the flag. The arrangement is the result of a personal friendship between Secretary Bryan and the mayor of Niagara Falls, N. Y., and illustrates the characteristic thrift of both par-! I ties. The mayor has issued a general j plea to the merchants, and an agree- ment has been reached by which the delegates will not be skinned alive so long as they can Bhow that they spent 1 all they brought under the Stars and Stripes. I refrain from drawing the moral, because Nlugara Falls, Ont., j would not be confuted. Besides, 1 don't believe reciprocity has anything to do with lt. We can have plenty of trade with the Yankees without the privilege of staking down their peace I delegates for what they have in their clohi.es. Cause for Complaint. This is not Baying that Niagara Falls, Ont., lacks a just cause for complaint. There ought to be mon- prosperity in the wake of this peace conference. There ought to be enough to spill over and revive the countryside with the golden stream. As a peace conference the present one is below sample. The last peace confer ence 1 attended was several years ago ut Portsmouth, New Hampshire, when the Japanese und Russians were coming to terms. That was a peace conference with a cornucopia attached. Portsmouth felt rich for two years afterwards, such was the influx of lavish strangers. My own opinion Is that all the Japanese In North America were present at that conference, not as negotiators, but as interested observers. They came there, as one of them told me, to look on at a historic event in which they were deeply concerned, and while they were there they spent their money like little men, and they went hack broke to their jobs is college students and waiters and never a murmur out of them. Besides the Japanese there were, all the rich Americans who had nothing else to do, and who wanted to be clone to the excitement, They came In such numbers with such a thirst to back the.m up lhat the price of high balls was nulled to SO cents a throw two days after the conference opened. It may have been because Colonel Theodore Roosevelt was its chief press agent, but I have never seen a peace conference with the polling yower of that cno at Portsmouth, New Hampshire. I have never seen the dove of peace so prevalent; it was there in flocl:3, each dove aa fat as an Aylesbury duck. Have a Kick Coming. Having formed my ideas of peace conferences c:i the New Hampshire .no, I quite expected a summer carnival this time. 1 looked to see nitrate kings from the Argentine, c-jf'ee potentates from Brazil, silver lords from Chili, hidalgos Srom Mexico, Idle millionaires from all the United States, with their automobiles and tiieir women folk, fluttering by the thousands, Cashing in and out, as fcey sunned themselves and their money in tho light of an epoch-mak- i ing event. And Niagara Falls, Ont*) expected that, too, aaid we are both lisappolnted, because this peace con- erence Is a small affair. Whether 1 .t is because it is no held on American ��� ii. or because It hasn't Theodore Roosevelt to advertise It, or because nobody takes it seriously, or because ; s a ne.- sparring for wind, the fact remains that the attendance is poor nd the box office receipts inoonsldi r- able. i don't blame Niagara Falls, Ont., 'or kicking at a pea ie conference that Is ;.������ far behind specifications. it hasn't rushed the Niagara Falls season one minute. There are only two draw hats present, and they are being worn ty Ni w York reporters. The ; lime bride will wait Oil June to see j the falls, and this conference will ! probably be over before winter ceas; s to chill ti,.- lap of May. Peace, as I I--aid -before, is not helping business to the extent that was expected. In : fact, it is not helping it at all.

I returned home suffering greatly, and did not know what to do, but was recommended by a friend to try GIN PILLS. I bought a box and found relief from the pain at once. I took a second and third box of GIN PILLS after which I went back to the specialist. He told me the calculus was reduced in size, still he could not relieve xue of it, although be tried for two and a half hours. I returned borne and continued to take GIN PILLS as tbey reduced the pain very much, but I did not expect they would relieve me of the stone, but to my great joy, I passed the stone on October 3rd, and am now a well man and very happy. I am sending the stone to you so that you can see for yourself what a great work GIN PILLS did for me.

A motion i was passed Instructing Building In- spector Turnbull to have the building known as :n Blackle street torn down and s.inilar action will be taken on the other two buildings unless the own-: ers come to terms with the city. During the discussion Mr. Turnbull reported that he was dickering with olher owners of properly in the Chinese quarter to have them sign up agreements making the lives of the buildings not. longer than three and a half years. This action was concurred in by the council. The merchants on Columbia street believe they have a complaint to make regarding certain barricades being erected by the contractors on the new!

Two familiar lacrosse faces will he nol iced on tin- grounds in Matt llarr, ihe ;i.riner henchman of Con Jones, ami Hob Cheyne, who years ago starred between the nets ror the Sal mon Bellies. .Messrs. liair and Cheyne will act as Lie officials in today's game. Considering tbe small amount of in terest taken by the fans some weeks' ago as to the doings Of the professional teams, a change has taken place during the week so that a fairly strong crowd is expected at Boh Brown's ball park when the rubber is faced ut 3 o'clock. Kor Ihe benefit of New Westmins ter followers of tin- game Intending to witness the struggle, the Eburne cars pass within two blocks of the park, the 2 o'clock car leaving Columbia street beiiiu in plenty of time for those who are anxious to witness the jtiuggle.
