PARIS. March 19.-Two great drives against the German army in France ure under'way, one being conducted ny the British, the other by the French. '

in La Basses district. .where hun-

dreds of thousands of British troops are massed. the British are battering away at the German lines in an effort to pierce them and press on to Lille.

ln Champagne district between

ltheims and Argonne Forest, the French have concentrated their efforts to pierce or drive the German lines.

Relentless fury marks the assaults in both districts. it is estimated that

DRIVES I

in all ncurly 1,000,000 men ure engag- ed in these two sections ol’ the battle front.

'fixings have gone badly for the

Germans since the Allies began press- ing home the jaws of this mighty vice. The invaders have been driven from Neuve Chappelle, Lepinette, Aubers and Maipegarbe by attacks of the British, and in Champagne the Ger- mans have been driven back mile after mile near Les Mesnil, Perthes, Beause- jour and Souaiu. _ _The real object of Emperor Wil- iiam's visit to the French front is believed to have been t`o inspire his troops by his presence.

Cllarlottetown was visited this

morning by a serious fire, which re- sulted in the destruction oi’ the foun- dry and blacksmith shop of Messrs Bruce Stewart &, Co., Ltd.. with all their contents, and considerably dam- aging the adjoining buildings of that firm and the lumber mill of Mr M. P. Hogan.

There appears to be some difference

of opinion as to who discovered the fire, and at this late hour the different reports in circulation cannot be veri- fied. No doubt there will be a thorough iuvcstigation, when the facts will be disclosed. ln the meantime all that is known is that the fire had burst through the roof of the foundry before the alarm rang. When the first stroke of the bell rang out the sky was red- dened to the zenith and at a distance

ig looked like a widespread confiagra- i on.

To the credit of the firemen it must

be' said that when they goton _tl\e_ sceuil they worked like Trojans, and in an incredibly short time had the fire under control find saved the adjoining buildings. which were already on fire.

'I‘he foundry and the blacksmith

shop, which were destroyed. were within a few yards of tho main factory and within fivo feet of ti\o Hogan factory. When the firemon got to

CII. IAIILI IHIS MIIHHIHE

work it looked as if the whole block were doomed. The snow on the roof and the direction of the wind, together with the heroic efforts of the firemen, succeeded in confining the fire to the buildings in which it had originated.

The loss to Messrs Bruce Stewart &

Co., Ltd., which includes the two buildings mentioned and their con- tents, consisting oi’ machinery, cast- ing, etc., is estimated at $10,000, be- sides injury to the walls of the main factory and damage by water to much of the machinery in the factory. There was about $5,000 insurance ou the destroyed buildings.

Mr Hogan's loss is less serious, be-

ing mniniy damage to the walls and roof of the factory, which were con~ siderably charred. Mr I-logan's fac- tory. it will be remembered was burn- ed about a year ago and the present building stands on the i'ormer site.

The origin of the fire is unknown. in conversation with one of the firm

of Bruce Stewart & Co., Ltd., the Gunrdinn _wus informed flint the work of clearing away the debris, prepara- tory to rebuilding will begin at once. Thcro will be some 15 or 20 men out of employment. Work in the other depnrtinenis, although somewhat linin-

percd. will bo resumed to-duy as usual.

(From Our Own Reporter-

OTTAWA. March 19.-The Com-

mons spent a dull but profitable day. Two government measures were given second reading and a third reading. A half dozen bills were passed and several million dollars of estimates were voted before the House adjourn-

The bills given second reading were,

a measure to amend the Bank Act, in- troduced by Hon. W. T. White and the bill of lion. C. J. Doberty’s making a temporary amendment to the insur- ance Act. Both measures have been made necessary by war conditions. The change in the Bank Act permits the banks to lend money for the pur- chase of seed grain on security of the grain purchased, the crop to be grown therefrom and the grain threshed from the crop. This amendment expires on August 1st, although several Western members pressed that it be made a permanent feature of the Bank Act.

Mr, White explained that the legis-

lation was being introduced to help the Western farmers finance the put- ting in of this years crop, The gen- eral credit of the borrower would still be the controlling consideration in loans by the banks but he believed it would be of value to the borrowers to have this additional privilege, as the banks would be more likely to lend in proper cases where they could obtain this additional security. The Western members generally approved of the legislation and it was passed without objection. The bill introduced by Mr.

Doherty provides for thc extension of licenses of insurance companies which are expiring. The extension will be only until the ond. of' thc next session of Parliament. Under existing war and financial conditions he thought

,that it was .rfgx that this privilege ‘should be grant as there were many applications and _.IL would obviate thc necessity of many private bills.

The only ohjector wus Mr. E. M.

MacDonald. ho thought. that it was wide legisla. id introduced at new principle. Th vernment was agro- gating the pp s of Parliament as the represehtat es of the people should have'f.h' right to scrutinize every charter. '-.However as it was temporary iegiswtion the member for Picton did not p' ss this objection and the bill was all " ed to pass.

When this wah concluded some in-

teresting facts in' regard to the mount- ed Police were disclosed. Sir Robert Borden explained that the force now consisted of 1,269 men. This was a large increase in the force and was due to the war and the necessity of a. strong patrol in certain sections nf Western Canada. The Premier an- nounced that an arrangement had been practically closed with Alberta for o. continuation of the Mounted Po- lice service under present terms. Saskatchewan however. was consider-

ing the atlvisabiiity ofestablisiiing a. ` force of` its own. in connection with the vote for the erection of a monu- ment to Samuel Champlain the Pre-

Mr. A. K. MacLean suggested that a

monument should be erected to Park- man whom he described as the “great- cst Canadian historian."

Hon. T. Chase (‘.a.sgrain took ex-

ception to the statement.

Sir Wilfrid Laurier informed the

llousc that thc Peace Centennial (Iom- mittee were considering u proposal to crcct monuments to Purkmau in Ot- tawa, Queen Victoria in Washington, and George Washington in London. The Opposition Leader observed that the Postmaster General probably had Gnrneau in mind when he objected to the assertion that Parkmau was Can- zuii-t's greatest historian.

Sir ltobcrt Borden observed that

thc proposition to erect a monument to Parkman might be considered at some future time.

The House passed at vote of $1,037,-

Hon, J. I). Hazen explained that the

channel had no\v a depth of thirty feet ami was being deepened to thirty-five feet. The channel was being widened and straightened. At present there was u uniform width of three hundred feet and the intention was to make this five hundred feet.

LONDON, March 18.- The next im-

portant battle on the Western front.it is believed, will take place along the River Yser, held on one side by the recently recognized Belgian army and on the other by Germans. As the floods have subsided the Belgiuns. sup- ported by the warsliips of the Allies have already pushed their line slight- ly forward and this is almost certain to lead the counter attack by the Ger- mans and a general engagement us has been the case when similar move- ments were iniated elsewhere along front. An artillery duel in way of pre- paration has commenced. There may be a slight delay while the Germans are waiting for reinforcements from Germany for they have been using most of their reserves to counter at- tack the British troops at St. Eloi and Neuve Chappelle and the French North of Arras but that a big clash will soon come nobody doubts. The contest for the Spur of Notre Dame De Lorette is still in progress and. ac- cording to Berlin. further attempts of the French to advance in Campagne where they captured an important ridge north of Le Mesnii have been re- pulsed.

Fighting in Argonne Forest and in

the Vossges has siackened owing to wintery weather. There is little news from the Eastern Front beyond tho fact that the Russians again crossed the East Prussian frontier and con- tinue ths offensive against the Aus- trians in Bukowfna. There is not much change in the situation.
