LONDON, May 13.-Viscount Hal-
dane. Lord High Chancellor, in the House of Lords to-day intimated that the Government was considering the necessity of departing from a volun- tary system of military enlistment and resorting to universal .service through- out the kingdom. For the present, he said, the hands of the War Oillce were full with the men they possessed, but it might be necesbary 'to reconsider the situation in the light of the tre- mendous necessities with which the nation was confronted. `
This appears to confirm the idea
prevalent that while recruiting has been satisfactory, very heavy lighting has taken place in Flanders, where the Germans have for almost a week been attacking tlte British line shows that many more men are required if victory be attained. Thus far the British troops, according to Field Marshal Sir John French, have with- stood all German onslaughts. While ut times they have been compelled to
give some ground, their counter-I attacks brought them back to the position _ from which they started. This was costly business, for the Ger- man artillery bombardment was very severe and counter-attacks were sl- wnys followed by heavy casualties. In their attempt of October nnd November to reach Calais the Ger- mans were not in the position of having to meet a counter offensive as they now have to in places along the western front. Of these the most
important is that in which the French' are carrying out from Arras to a point at which their lines joins the British and in which they continue to meet with unvarylng success. They report to-day to have captured very strong positions, which the Germans admit. and one road at least which the Ger- man were. rising to bring up reinforce- ments. it is therefore believed here that French successes will lighten the pressure which the Germans are bringing to bear-on the British around
Ypres.
The Austro-German offensive con-
tinues ln Western Galicia, where they have driven the Russians forty miles back from their old positions and to within 25 miles of Przemysl. Fighting is less intense and the Germanic allies have been able to estimate their captures, which amount to some 150,000 men, 69 guns, 255 machine guns.

May 13.-There have been rt series of violent anti-German demonstrations -in Johannesburg, which culminated yesterday in wrecking a number of German and Austrian establishments. The police intervened to quell the dis- turbance, but they were virtually pow- erless. Altogether over ilfty build- ings have been wholly or partly wrecked, their contents either burned or reduced to matchwood. The es-' ,tablishments cleaned out include ten :large warehouses. ten saloons, three hotels and over 20 shops. The mob destroyed the German Kicderkrauz Club, pillaged the offices of the Gen- eral Mining Corporation. This con- cern has an international board of di- rectors, including some Germans. The crowd burned all the books, records and papers of the Company. The of- fices of Sir George Albus, near the Stock Exchange, were raided, and a bontlre was made of the furniture. Rlotlng continued far into the night. The damage is well over a million.

He and Mr McLean were therefore (_ returned to support Mr Borden; and '
to justify the expenditures nt' the (lovcrnmcnt in the present crisis. The speaker did not know why they should, :uid he :lid not believe the peopli- of this country would turn the liorden Government down utter ull lt' tail done t'or this country. Mr Nicholson ventured to say that hc und his colleague had shown their inter- est in the public welfare by providing facilities that could not be denied. The speaker then referred to the re- presentation question, stating that when the number of representatives was reduced from 6 to 5 the Leader ot' the Liberal party in the lower pro- vinces who represented this county. should have entered a strong and vigorous protest against the step, and at that time his plea might have been ffcctivc. He did nothing, however,
_he would like them to say right there if there was any reason ut all why they should not support Sir Robert Borden whenever he was pleased to call an election. Mr Nicholson did not believe there was one Conserva- tive who thought that Sir Robert Bor- den had not always had the interests of the country at, heart and acted in its welfare. Whatever the result in this country might be, he was confl- dent that four of his supporters would be returned. Ho believed tlmt the Conservative party would be returned in every province with a greater majority than ever. He needed not to tell them what tho policy of Sir Robert was and the manner in which lt had been pursued. Coming nt\rer home, he claimed that Mr Borden had acted more than generoulsy by this province and had fulfilled overy pro- mise made to the people licrc while he was in Opposition. l-le did not promise the people an increased sub- sidy. but when Mr McLean and he _(the speaker) together with the local *Government made representations to him with reference to our finances. Sir Robert promptly took the matter up, without any quihbling or prevnri~ cntlon, and voted ut the first parlia- ment one hundred thousand dollars for the Island. He was strenuously opposed in this matter by the Lender of thc Opposition, Sir Wilfrid Laurier. That was a statement he was prepared _to make on that or any other plat- form. When Premier l-laszard wcnt _t.o Ottawa for better terms and urged his case as well as hc could, thc reply of Sir Wilfrld’s Government wus, “We have closed the door; no more sub- sldies for P.E. Island. Go hottie and tax yourselves; you are not taxed half enough." Let them compare that,
sm_e_ ‘ said Mr Nicholson, with thc treatment i
Sir Robert Borden had meted to this province; and any Conservative who
Ausgrkms, but as 1; 1,, they lost mum, would vote against him had not they,
interests of the province at hnnrt und
_so doing. There was another mniter to which he would cali their atten- tion. ond that wus the agricultural
was to bo distributed annunlly throughout (‘:tnada. according to popu- lation, for the encouragement. und betterment of agriculture. Messrs McLean and Nicholson called on Sir Robert and ln emphatic terms pointed
bution would work on this province, which they showed was prc-eminently an agricultural one. As n resultoftheir
