The persistently high cost of

For this among other reasons there

in Great Britain a few years. ago

Diving To Limit
For Sunken Gold
LONIDON, Oct. 5-The divers on
the Admiralty steamer Pacer have
recovered so far $10,000,000 worth
of bullion from the steamship
Laurentic. The vessel (14,892
gross tonnage), formerly of the
White Star Line, was serving as
an auxiliary cruiser when she was
sunk by a torpedo off the north
coast of Ireland in January, 1917.
More than 3800 lives were lost and

went down with her.

cial investigators today to lie be-
hind the mysterious murder of Nit-
aro Yasuhara, a Japanese found
strangled in the ‘Hotel Empire yes-
terday. A general alarm has been
sent. for another Japanese, who is
believed to have lured the dead
man to his doom, Evidences that
the murder was committed accord-
ing to the best scientific principles
of Ju Jitsu, led police and detec-
tives to the theory that a fellow
countryman of the slain man com-
mitted the crime. ‘Papers found
on the body of the victim indicate
that he was in the employ of an-
other ‘foreign .power. ‘Testimonials
from a British government official
are among documents which ‘have
been turned over to special agents
in charge of the investigation. The
dead man was a cook, but no evi-
dence could be found of his ever
having worked in that capacity. As
for the suspected slayer, nothing
could be leanned of him, and it
was believed he had come recent-
ly to this country in search of
Yasuhara. On Tuesday morning-he
went to the Empire ‘Hotel, regis-
tering as living in New York.

THE SIMPLEST OF
STEAM TRAPS
Among the innumerable forms
of steam trap none could be neat-
er or more effective than a new
' form recently brought out by a
“. British firm of engineers, The
working part of the trap is a
small flat sealed chamber shaped
like the vacum box of an ordinary
aneroid barometer. This chamber
is filled with a volatile spirit’ and
its vapour.
ber-expands-and closes—a—valve_at-
tached to it, thus shutting off tho
steam. When any water collects
the spirit is cooled, the chamber
contracts, and the valve opens, al-
lowing the water to escape. The
flow of steam through the opening
heats the chamber again and so
closes the valve. Wither side of
the valve can be used as the inlet.

IMPROVED DROP HAMMERS
cently supplied by a British firm
to the engineering workshops of a
Chinese railway possesses several
interesting features. It includes
three hammers, one of 30
one of 15 cwt., and a third of 7 cwt.
All three hammers are lifted by
wheels on a single overhead shaft,
driven by an electric motor through
a closed gear box which reduces
the speed, The ropes © support-
ing the hammer blocks are raised
on grooved drums, to which they
ate held by special friction blocks;
at any desired moment the. frie-
tion block js raised and the ham-
mer falls. The mechanism — of
control ix so simple that a chilid
could operate the largest ‘hammer
with ease. Each hammer can ve
lifted to any height and allowed
to fall. or it can be held stationaiy
at any point. Before being in-
stalled the battery was subjected
to the severest tests, all three ham
mers being held suspended while
the motor continued to run, put

SAFETY ELECTRICAL
APPLIANCES FOR MINES
One of the drawbacks of
electrical apparatus in (fiery mines
ig that explosions taking place in-
side sw..ch boxes and other ap
paratns are liatig to produce 4
ilime outside, ava ignite the gas in
the mine. It fs practically imp: s-
sible to make the casing of the
electrical apparatus strong enough
to withstand the force of such ex-
plodtn; and if a safety valve is
fitted to prevent the cracking of
he casing it ig likely to permit the
flame to escape with disastrous re-
sults. A solution of this difficul-
ty hus been devised by an electrt-
cal company in Great Britain. The
cover of the casing is held down
by bolts with a spring cover 80

IMPROVING BRITISH PORTS
Everybody will have heard the
story.of the American who was
contemptuously. comparing the
Clyde with the Mississipi and who
was silenced by the observation
that while Providence had been
responsible for the Mississipi, hu-
man. engineers: had made the
Clyde. It is a literal fact that
the famous home of. shipbuilding
and Bea commerce is largely an ar-
tificial waterway. Still the work
of improvement, begun nearly a
hundred years ago, is being con-
tinued. New docks are. about, to
be constructed which will give sh<
large parallel basins with direct
entrance from the river:and will
add about seven miles of quays to
the ‘accommodation of the port.
The total cost of the new works
will be about £2,000,000. Ambi-
tious developments are also pro-
ceeding at the port of London. A
new cargo quay, 1,000 feet long,
has just been put into service and

by Mr. Meighen had extended ths
franchise to them three years ago
as Mr. King contended that the
Government of which Mr. Meighen
had been a member had really de-
nied the franchise to three-fourths
of the women of the country. Those
who were fortunate enough to have
relatives in the war at the time
were given the vote, but women
who had not, even though they
were Red Cross workers and pa-
triotic citizens, were deprived of
the privilege. The old Unionist
government was composed of Lib-
erals and Conservatives, and Mt
was the Liberals, notably Mr. Row-
ell. who were the strong advocatey
for the women’s franchise, while
the Conservatives, opposing theni,
had compromised by conceding it
to a part of the women of the
country.
As regards that part of the Prime
Minister’s manifesto declaring four
unity with the Empire, Mr. King
seid that all loyal people of the
Dominion were of the same mind;
but ‘he held that Sir. Wilfrid Lau-
rier was the first Canadian who
procaimed Canada's nationhood.
The Liberal Party had always
worked for recognition of a na-
tional status, and if Canada was a
nation ‘it was that party that had
achitved the end,
As to the need for reconstruc-
tion Mr, King argued that the
Meighen Government was without
a policy. Immediately the war
was over, he said, it was the duty
ot the Government to have offer-
ed to the people to elect a new ad-
ministration on a definite policy
cf reconstruction on a- peace ba-
sis. But Mr: Meighen held on to
office, and he had been weighe.i
in the balance, with his govern-
ment, and found wanting. He de-
clared that the Prime Minister had
usurped office, the people never
having given him a mandate _ to
carry on the government. ‘The
Manifesto, he said, took no cogni-
sance of the problems of unemploy-
mient and high cost of living that
would be serious this winter; and
the great railway question, which
was a vital issue, it ignored. Al-
most every government in the: «-
vilized world, including enemy
countries, had given their electors
the right to choose new parlia-
ments since the war, but the
Meighen and the Russian govern-
ments were the only ones that had
denied their people that. privilege.
Even now, no one knew when there
would be an election. He , des-
cribed the Meighen government a1
an autocracy. It had refused to.
give to the people’s representa-
tives in Parliament any informa-
tion regarding public expenditures,
and narticularly in connection with
the railways. He went into com-
‘paring of the national debt between
that of the last year and ten years
ago.
The policy of the Liberal party,
he said, was one of economy and
retrenchment and the dismissal of
useless officials. The real issue
was tne question: is it not
time-for_a_change?
He deprecated the group sys-
tem, declaring that, the . people
woud never serve.their purposes
by electing class representatives.
Speaking on the tariff, Mr. King
said that he stood for a tariff for
revenue. He said there should
be greater production as a means
to the reduction of. prices, and
production unless the implements
of production were available at
reasonable prices. The _ tariff
therefcre should bear as lightly as
possible on these things. The Li-
beral. position on the tariff was
not a question of free trade and
protection, but a tariff for reve-
nue, and the duty should be as
light as possible cn the necessar-
ies of life and all the implements
of production in the basic indus-
tries. .
In his peroration Mr. King
grouped the Liberal platform and
those of the Farmers, the Labor
Organization, Nation Council of
Women and the War Veterans, sla-
ting that they were all practically
identical and opposed to the gov-
ernment’s platform. He expressed
the conviction, in closing, that the
Libera party would be triumphant
at, the polls.
Mr. McMaster followed, and the
meeting concluded with the Na-
tional Anthem.
At the Prince Edward Theatre
the seating capacity was nearly all

Mr. McKinnon was followed by

criticized the government for the
War Time Election Act; for the
disfranchisement of women voters
at the last election; for remaining
in office long after the time for
which they were elected had ex-
pired, for by hyprocrisy in claim-
ing 'to have abolished patronage
and for destroying the united Can-
ada that existed prior to the war.
He concluded with some remarks
upon the tariff and with the toler-
ant attitude of Quebec.

of civilization, said Sir. Robert. If
another war were to break out, its
methods will be more deadly, and
its consequences more terrible, to
a degreé which cannot yet be real-
ized. The strong and eannest sup-
port of all men and ‘women of
good will are earnestly desired in
the effort to which this society is
“devoting its energies. In speaking
of the movement which has led to
the establishing of the society Sir
Robert remarked shortly that its
purpose is to’ promote and assist
all influences which make for in-
ternational peace. In the last an-
alysis, the prevention of war must
depend upon the public opinion of
the world. The society desires to
bring public opinion in Canada
strongly to bear on this question.
On this continent we were remote
from the actual devastation and
horrors of the war, from which the
world has only recently emerged,
but here Sir Robert emphasized ey-
ery word, giving to his utterance
the tenor of an ominous warning
the increasing command which the
nations are gaining over the ter-
rible destructive forces of nature
may bring the next war to our very
doors.

was not his wife, and claimed his
only legal marriage was to a young
woman frem Texas with whom he
recently has been living. Justice

sent. for another Japanese, who is
believed to have lured the dead
man to his doom, Evidences that
the murder was committed accord-

heats the chamber again and so
closes the valve. Wither side of
the valve can be used as the inlet.

SAFETY ELECTRICAL

One of the drawbacks of

ilime outside, ava ignite the gas in
the mine. It fs practically imp: s-

IMPROVING BRITISH PORTS
Everybody will have heard the
story.of the American who was
contemptuously. comparing the
Clyde with the Mississipi and who
was silenced by the observation
that while Providence had been
responsible for the Mississipi, hu-

Clyde. It is a literal fact that
the famous home of. shipbuilding
and Bea commerce is largely an ar-
tificial waterway. Still the work
of improvement, begun nearly a
hundred years ago, is being con-
tinued. New docks are. about, to
be constructed which will give sh<
large parallel basins with direct
entrance from the river:and will
add about seven miles of quays to
the ‘accommodation of the port.
The total cost of the new works
will be about £2,000,000. Ambi-
tious developments are also pro-
ceeding at the port of London. A

by Mr. Meighen had extended ths
franchise to them three years ago
as Mr. King contended that the
Government of which Mr. Meighen
had been a member had really de-
nied the franchise to three-fourths
of the women of the country. Those
who were fortunate enough to have
relatives in the war at the time
were given the vote, but women
who had not, even though they
were Red Cross workers and pa-
triotic citizens, were deprived of
the privilege. The old Unionist
government was composed of Lib-
erals and Conservatives, and Mt
was the Liberals, notably Mr. Row-
ell. who were the strong advocatey
for the women’s franchise, while
the Conservatives, opposing theni,
had compromised by conceding it
to a part of the women of the
country.
As regards that part of the Prime
Minister’s manifesto declaring four
unity with the Empire, Mr. King
seid that all loyal people of the
Dominion were of the same mind;
but ‘he held that Sir. Wilfrid Lau-
rier was the first Canadian who
procaimed Canada's nationhood.
The Liberal Party had always
worked for recognition of a na-
tional status, and if Canada was a
nation ‘it was that party that had
achitved the end,
As to the need for reconstruc-
tion Mr, King argued that the
Meighen Government was without
a policy. Immediately the war
was over, he said, it was the duty
ot the Government to have offer-
ed to the people to elect a new ad-
ministration on a definite policy
cf reconstruction on a- peace ba-
sis. But Mr: Meighen held on to
office, and he had been weighe.i
in the balance, with his govern-
ment, and found wanting. He de-
clared that the Prime Minister had
usurped office, the people never
having given him a mandate _ to
carry on the government. ‘The
Manifesto, he said, took no cogni-
sance of the problems of unemploy-
mient and high cost of living that
would be serious this winter; and
the great railway question, which
was a vital issue, it ignored. Al-
most every government in the: «-
vilized world, including enemy
countries, had given their electors
the right to choose new parlia-
ments since the war, but the
Meighen and the Russian govern-
ments were the only ones that had
denied their people that. privilege.
Even now, no one knew when there
would be an election. He , des-
cribed the Meighen government a1
an autocracy. It had refused to.
give to the people’s representa-
tives in Parliament any informa-
tion regarding public expenditures,
and narticularly in connection with
the railways. He went into com-
‘paring of the national debt between
that of the last year and ten years
ago.
The policy of the Liberal party,
he said, was one of economy and
retrenchment and the dismissal of
useless officials. The real issue
was tne question: is it not
time-for_a_change?
He deprecated the group sys-
tem, declaring that, the . people
woud never serve.their purposes
by electing class representatives.
Speaking on the tariff, Mr. King
said that he stood for a tariff for
revenue. He said there should
be greater production as a means
to the reduction of. prices, and
production unless the implements
of production were available at
reasonable prices. The _ tariff
therefcre should bear as lightly as
possible on these things. The Li-
beral. position on the tariff was
not a question of free trade and
protection, but a tariff for reve-
nue, and the duty should be as
light as possible cn the necessar-
ies of life and all the implements
of production in the basic indus-
tries. .
In his peroration Mr. King
grouped the Liberal platform and
those of the Farmers, the Labor
Organization, Nation Council of
Women and the War Veterans, sla-
ting that they were all practically
identical and opposed to the gov-
ernment’s platform. He expressed
the conviction, in closing, that the
Libera party would be triumphant
at, the polls.
Mr. McMaster followed, and the
meeting concluded with the Na-
tional Anthem.
At the Prince Edward Theatre
the seating capacity was nearly all
taken up. His Worship Mayor
Riley. presided and at § o'clock
called wpon Mr. D. A. McKinnon,
Liberal candidate for Queen's,
Mr. McKinnon was followed by
Mr. A, R. MeMasters, M. P., who
criticized the government for the
War Time Election Act; for the
disfranchisement of women voters
at the last election; for remaining
in office long after the time for
which they were elected had ex-
pired, for by hyprocrisy in claim-
ing 'to have abolished patronage
and for destroying the united Can-
ada that existed prior to the war.
He concluded with some remarks
upon the tariff and with the toler-
ant attitude of Quebec.
(Mr. MacMasters} was followed
by Mr. William Duff. who declaim-
ed at some length against the ex-
travagance of the Liberal Conser-
vative Government.
At 10 o'clock Mr. MacKenzie
King, having delivered his address

passed rocked the very foundations
of civilization, said Sir. Robert. If
another war were to break out, its
methods will be more deadly, and
its consequences more terrible, to
a degreé which cannot yet be real-
ized. The strong and eannest sup-
port of all men and ‘women of
good will are earnestly desired in
the effort to which this society is
“devoting its energies. In speaking
of the movement which has led to
the establishing of the society Sir
Robert remarked shortly that its
purpose is to’ promote and assist
all influences which make for in-
ternational peace. In the last an-
alysis, the prevention of war must
depend upon the public opinion of
the world. The society desires to
bring public opinion in Canada
strongly to bear on this question.
On this continent we were remote
from the actual devastation and
horrors of the war, from which the
world has only recently emerged,
but here Sir Robert emphasized ey-
ery word, giving to his utterance
the tenor of an ominous warning
the increasing command which the
nations are gaining over the ter-
rible destructive forces of nature
may bring the next war to our very
doors.

‘er of his children was his wife un-
der Louisiana law. The couple had
been living in Derrider, La., until
