in Re The King vs. John Grady.

In the Supreme court vector-div. before Justices I-llszard and Arsen- ault. application for leave to appeal

0., in the cue of The King vs. John Grady, of Summe victed of unlawfully stealing gasoline engine equipment at the last term of

and was sentenced to two years in the penitentiary.

The notice of motion. which coun- sel for appellant read, alleged that the Crown had failed to prove that the stolen engine was the property of Napoleon Arscnault, as set out in the indictment, that the evidence es- tablished that the Crown witness Hubert McDonald was self-confes- sed accomplice. thliir s was not prosecuted for the oflenoe. that his evidence connecting the prisoner with the crime was contradicted by an independent witness for the Crown. an independent witness for the defense. and by the prisoner; that two independent witnesses in- cluding the Chief- of Police of Sum- mersids had stated that in their op- inion McDonald ought not to be be- lieved upon oath, and that the said McDonald was then under two in-

given alleging misdirection of the Jury by the trial Judge and it was claimed that the verdict was against the weight of evidence and was such as reasonable men ought not reason- ably to find.

Counsel for appellant then read and discussed the Jury charge, and asked leave to submit certain affidavits, four in number, which. he explained dis- closed that McDonsld admitted to perlury at the trial and confessed that the appellant was not mixed up in the alleged crime.

Objection was raised by the Attor- ney General to the dmission of the affidavit on the ground that no de- pendence could be placed on a statement of the Crown witness, Mc- Donald. in contradiction of anything the same witness had said under oath. "No doubt." he said. "McDon- ald might give contrsdictory state- ments. That is his character. l have no hesitation in saying that I believe him to be a man of that kind." The speaker contended that if counsel for appellant had an amdavit of what McDonald said under oath it might have some weight, but the Court did not know under what circumstances the sdidavits were secured.

Mr. Johnston submitted that the smdsvits contained important new evidence. Ho stated that in the evi- dance it was disclose‘ that a man by the hams of Brcoh. s Prohibition omcer. went to seee the Crown wit- ness McDonald, who was then s prisoner in Prince County Jail under two indictments.

Brooks secured a written statement from McDonald. but that statement was not produced by the Crown at the trial. Counsel now had new evi- dence which he proposed to submit in the form of afliidavits.

The Court: Why was not that evi- dence produced at the trial?

Mr. Johnston: Because we did not

CEUSINE 0E ‘HVE STUCK BEARD MEET

New Officers Elected - Recommendations For Comparative lfeed Buyer-Lunch- eon at Experimental Station.

convention of the Maritime Live Stock Board, which commenced in Charlottetown on Wednesday morn- ing, took place yesterday at 9 a. m. with the president, Mr. O. A. Jess, 1n the chair.

A number of resolutions were pass- ed, thanking the Canadian Nation- al Railways, the three Provincial De- partments of Agriculture, the Do- minion Live Stock Branch and the press for services in the pest.

Chief among the resolutions passed was the following:-

"Whereas the Maritime Live Stock Shipping Club have been marketing their hogs on a graded basis for a. number of years.

And whereas local droves and buyers are continuing to buy on a. flat basis to the d‘ uragemcnt of co-operative shipping.

Be it resolved that we, the mem- bers of the Maritime Live Stock Board Inc., here assembled do pet- ition the Dominion Department at Ottawa to enforce the aelr hos-trad- ing rcgulations in the Maritime Provinces immediately."

Moved by Geo. T. Whalen.

Seconded by A. B. Roberts.

Considerable doubt. was manifested by certain members as to whether enabling legislation had been passed in Prince Edward Island for this purpose. At present a buyer pur- chases on a flat rate, but if this resolution be acceded to, he is re- quired to grade the hogs himsef and make a. record or it. The ani- mals are brought to town where they are regraded by an inspector who thus keeps a check on the pur- chaser's activities. This, it is intend- ed, will work out in the interests of the seller.

The report of the committee on feeds which was presented by Mr. Walter Shaw is as follows:-

Rcport of Committee on the Purchase and Distribution of Feeding Mater- ials.

1. Due to the fact that the basis of economic production in the grow- ing and feeding of those home grown feeds that can be cheaply produced, therefore we strongly recommend the increased production in clover, grain and roots by farmers in the Mari- time Provinces.

2. We strongly recommend that the head office of the Maritime Live stock Board establish an informat- ion bureau for securing latest market prices on feeds in quantity lots and that the club secretaries be kept sup- plied with this information in such form that it could be easily translat- ed and understood by club members and further that sources of feed such

dence of a. person whom the Atwr- .115 Argentine Com be investigated-

3. In view of the increase in cost accompanying the handling of feeds in small lots and‘ the danger of transacting business on the credit basis we recommend that the Board confine its feed purchasing and dis- tributing activities to straight car- lots. except when mixed carlots can be purchased at straight car rates and further that feeds be purchased only on orders from Shipping Clubs carrying a banker's guarantee, thus ensuring payment on arrival of car. 4. Due to lack of information on the preparation of suitable balanced live stock rations utilising cheaply purchased and home grown feeds, we recommend that the Federal and Provincial Departments of Agricult- ure further the distribution of infor- mation and material dealing with the compounding of economic rat- ions. . Moved by W. R. Shaw. Seconded by W. V. Longly.

The new officers and directors are as follows:-
