PARIS, Jan. 4.-The Matin affirms,

notwithstanding denials, that the Ger- man Emperor is suffering from cancer of the throat and is no longer able to speak. .ln` February 1911, according to the Matin, the doctors were con- sidering llwhether it would be '|eces- sary to remove the entire larynx in order to stay the progress of the dis- ease. That raised a question as to whether the Emperor would be able to speak if such an operation were performed. Leading specialists of. every capital in Europe were con- sulted. lt was learned that' an emin- ent surgeon in Paris had. with an artlflclar larynx and breathing tube opening into the trachea, restored the power of speech to cancerous patients who had undergone total removal of the affected organs. This doctor.

whose name the Matin withholds for reasons of professional etiquette, was asked to go to Berlin by the German ambassador. He was offered 100,000 francs and all expenses and was re- quested to bring with him a patient who had been fitted with an apparatus so that the Emperor himself might see if he were able to speak. Meanwhile, as the result of a minor operation and a few weeks’ absolute rest. the Em- peror’s condition has improved. As is often the case in this disease, the pro- gress of which is implacable, 'but slow. Another operation of this kind which became necessary has just been Performed. but it is only a palliative. The German Emperor must either make up his mind to a complete re- moval of the larynx or be stltied by the growth. This explains why the Emperor went neither to Warsaw Constantinople or Brussels.

LONDON, January 4.--Au account

of tllaconferonce held Friday evening bet'we_m;Pr_emler Asquith, David Lloyd George, the Minister of Munitlons. and a deputation from the Amalgamatod Booiifty, bf . Engineers, which is= tho'

moptainfiuential trade union body and inc tl lla most of tho trades concerned in the manufacture of munitions, issu- ed to-night by tho Press Bureau. shows that the Government' had docidod to acouiosce in all the demands of tho trade -union. in return for their con- sent to the immediate introduction oi' Mr Lloyd Gcorge’s scheme of labour dilution.

The Press Bureau’s account is made upifor_the.most part of excerpts from , MrfAsqtiith's remarks to the deputa- tiop at the conference, which lasted three hours, but includes also the s _tement that the deputatlon agreed be ore the conference closed “to ac- cept. Oli behalf of the membership of theijr society the scheme of dilution, and to co-operate actively therein."

-A-bill, covering the union demands, will be pushed through Parliament as soon as possible. The demands maln- lyfcoucorn matters of pay and condi- tions of labour for unskilled workmen and women introduced under the dilu- tion scheme. The Government had already' agreed to restore the status quo? after the war.

Premier Asqnith's appeal to the de-

legation was along familiar lines.

-“ From the point of view or the State,” he said, " the great point l want .to impress on you is the import- ance of putting this dilution into effect _aod_at' once. ,It is an urgent matter to

,,_, <

meet thc necessities of wur. it is also important that tho output of munitions should as far as possible be domestic. 1\ot foreign, because the financial prob- lem before ns is very serious-an obligation to pay either in exports of gold to America nnd countries like hcr for munitions which we arc Kot- ting thcrc.

“ Thus your lmmodiatc consent to

thc dilution scheme moans an enor- mous galu in military efficiency and financial stability. No doubt it is diffi- cult to pcrsundc mcn who regard thc priorities and privileges of skilled labour as almost gospel, to forgo for a time those privileges and admit un- skilled meu into the class of work which those skilled have been in the habit of doing. They have a natural tear that when the war ends it will be impossible to re-establish the old safeguards built up by generations of trade iiulonists, will have been under- mined. '

"The only way that these suspicions

can be eradicated is by the unions exerting all their force to influence their members to consent to this

-temporary process. I have gone over

your demands that the Minister of Munltions be given power to enforce safeguards in the employment of dilu- ted labour, and although I see grcat difficulties I am disposed to acquiesce in a bill carefully framed on those lines. provided I get assurance on behalf of your society that this will settle the whole matter and end the long series of demands and grievances which has hindered the carrying out

of our agreement of last March." '

LONDON. Jan. 4.-Everywhere in

Strlpa and Voihynian districts of Russia, and in East Galicia the Rus- sians are on the offensive, official communications from both Petrograd and Vienna showing this. Czernowitz, the capital of Bukowina. is now the position around which the most im- portant fightlng is in progress. The Russian War Office reports that the Russians have occupied a line of trenches north-east of Czcrnowitz, and have repulsed strong counter-attacks. A Renter despatch from Pctrograd gives a report of the evacuation of Czernowitz and the capture by Rus- sians of a large number of prisoners, including Germans. There has been a strong advance by the Russians on this front. though Vienna. says that the Russian attack has been unsuc- cessful and that their losses have

.__..é...-..i.__l

‘been appalling. in one section six miles in width 23,000 Russian dead having been counted. _On none of the other fronts have changes of import- ance taken place.

The Austrians have captured an

italian trench near Tolmino. and the Montenegrins have recaptured Bogie- vac from the Austrians, inflicting on them severe losses.

Unofficial advices from Athens rc-

port 30.000 Bulgarians as having reached the region of Trains, north- west of Elbsssau, in Albania, and that Albanian irrcgulars, commanded by u Bulgarian officer have exchanged shots with Italian outposts near Durazzo, on the Adriatic.

It is asserted there are 100,000 Ser-

hians now in Albania who will soon be ready to ro-enter thc fray.

of the Canadian Pacino Railway, ele- vated to the peeraga in the New Year’s honors list, has not yet decided upon the title he will take. A cor-

“ How shall we address your Lord-

“ Oh, l suppose there will be no

harm in that," was the smiling reply. "But i have as yet not' considered the manner of title or considerations as- sociated therewith."

"It has been rumoured. my Lord,

that in connection with the fulfilment of your duties as peer lt might be necessary for you to retire from the presidency of the C.P.R."

"_Not at all. I have no thought of

resigning. Ishali simply go on in my usual way without any change."

Colossal Attempt to Break Bock- bone of Germanic lilies.

lost Ambitious Strategic More Since War Begun.

LONDON. Jun. 4.-ltussln‘s unm-

paign in Bcssarabla continues to be the most important visible war activ- ity. From the Pripct to the Rouman- ian frontier, over a front of at least three hundred miles, a huge Russian force with a great' appearance of con- fidence is hurling sledgehammer blows at the opposing force, which, according to all acounts, totals at least a million and a half men.

Petrograd still claims considerable

success in the early stages of the campaign, and despatchos emphasize the excellent equipment, supplies and munitions which Russia laid up for

this purpose duliing the period of com-

sivt .

parative pas y

Some London observers. speculating

on the meau_ing of the Bessarabic move, hail it as one of thc most am- bitious strategic plans since the bo- ginning of hostilities, and predict that it will provo a colossal attempt to break thc backbone of the Germanic allies the whole line across the Bal- kans. Thua one critic says:

"Tho plan is that Russia and thc

other Allies, moving from different sides, shall meet in tho Balkans and gain complete mastery of that' pcnin suia. if they succeed, Turkey will be subdued and the vltais of Austria- Hungary menaced."
