OTTAWA, April 5.-That the firm

of Gauthier & Company, of Quebec, bought leather for army boots in Gerbuary of 1913, before tenders had even been called for, and that half-aw ilour before the tenders closed Mr Charles E. Slater, representating the firm, was able to put one in just 2% cents lower per pair than the next lowest and obtain the contract. was the chain of coincidence brought out .in evidence before the Parliamentam Boot Committe to-day.

It was brought out that even after

the Government changed the name Charles E. Slater. although a. promi- nent Liberal, was allowed to remain on the patronage list. and this fare: _was interpreted by Conservative mr-m bers of the-Committee this afternoon to imply that Slater had “a drag " somewhere within the Depnrllll-»l.l_

Latin- Yucca, ul Occidental Europe. and the Mediter- ranean. The former belongs especially to the great world of commerce, the latter to the world of diplomacy, to society and to travel.

Tile subject is by no means a new

olle, for in 1900 M. Paul Chapelier submitted to the international con- gress for teaching living languages a proposal for a linguistic alliance be- tween the French and the English tongues. He evell went so far as to propose a convention between France, England and the United States. by which it should be made obligatory to teach English in France, and French in Ellglalld and in the United States ill all public schools. If this project were Feslised it would mean that these two languages would become common to 180,000,000 of the people of these nations, and subsequently, as a natur- al sequence. to 400,000,000 of their subjects and proteges.

Many mell of note have recognised

the far-reaching possibilities of such an alliance, but none have, in the past. regarded it as a feasible thing. The idea has, however, at the present time. a certainly increasing number of sup- porters ill the French and English universities. and is by no means foreign or unwelcome to many in the United States. 1
