business was found today to keep the

House in session for nearly an hour.

In committee a majority of the inside estimates were passed but the outside

estimates will not be denlt.with until the Auditor _ Geueral's report is received which will' probably be in about three weeks. " '

Very little business will be done until

after the Ontario elections on Welinés/day as the Ontario members of both parties 'are now sway assisting their friends.

The Speaker today issued his warrant

for a by-election in Carleton and the nomi-

nation will probably take place in about ten days, when, unless unexpected op- position develops, Mr. Borden will be able to take his seat in the House.
