These included Thomas Conroy, 30-year-old mill hand, who walked into central police station early Sat- urday and told detectives that he and two other men had been with the Orsery girl and saw her fall to her death from the bridge over the pulp mill canal, on the grounds of the Port Royal Pulp d: Paper 00., Ltd, between 4 and and ii A, M.

Speeds To Aid Of Rudderless

NEW YORK, Oct. 28—'I‘he coast- guard cutter Cayuga sped tonight to the assistance of the fishing trawler Exeter, which lost her rud- der and was reported drifting help- lessly 800 miles off New York, due east of Nantucket lightship.

The Cayuga went to the rescue after the coastguard cutter Harriet Mine developed motor trouble and headed beck to her base at Prov-

inquiry into price spreads, mass buying and unsatisfactory business methods will continue. This much, on the definite statement of Prem- ier R. B. Bennett, emerged tonight from the flood of rumor. specula- tion and recrimination which fol- lowed Mr. Stevens’ dramatic de- parture from the Bennett Govern- ment.

Canadian political circles receiv- ed their biggest shock since the Melghen-King deadlock of i926 when Mr. Stevens refusing to re- tract or apologize for certain re- marks announced his resignation as Minister of Trade and Com- merce and head of the Royal Com- mission probing mass buying and price spreads.

The shock was not mitigated when Mr. Bennett in a. long letter accepted the resignation. The Prime Minister commended Mr. Stevens’ industry and zeal as a minister but denciniced in severe terms his remarks concerning the investigation in public speeches and particularly in the now famous “Stevens pamphlet."

Regrets Action

“It is a matter of regret to me.“ Mr. Bennett wrote, “that you have chosen to resign rather than take the course that my colleagues and myself suggested." The suggestion was that Mr. Stevens correct or withdraw certain statements con-- tained in the pamphlet “with an appropriate expression of regret."

The political storm had been brewing ever since Aug. 5, when copies of this pamphlet, discussing the evidence at the price spreads inquiry. reached the public and it ‘broke just on the eve of the re- sumption of the probe’, Mr, Stevem had called the commission together for an executive session tomorrow with hearing of evidence to begin Tuesday.

Although no longer chairman. m. Stevens will remain on the commission, he stated tonight. In his letter ivu. Bennett said his re- signation as chairman would not prevent his continuing on the com-

mission and bringing out whatever‘ evidence he wished. l

At the same time Mr. Bennett stated definitely it was the govq emrnenifs intention that the probe should continue until all necessary evidence hsd been brought out and a suitable report formulated for Parliament. ‘

Unanswered

Questions left unanswered were the choice of a new chairman for the commission, the Chulge cf a new Minister of Trade and Com- merce and of a new representative of British Columbia in the cabinet. They will likely be settled early in the week.

Mr. Bennevs letter and two statements issued by Mr. Stevens on Saturday indicated definite contradictions on two points and an implied contradiction on an- other.

Mr. Bennett charged m. Stevens had prejudged the case of certain concerns referred to in evidence before the inquiry. Mr. Stevens de-
