LONDON, Oct. 2.--The following

statement was issued from Downing Street:-~

Train services continue to improve

Over 800'trains ran yesterday ex- clusive of many local services. On the underground and suburban rail- ways where partial, servlfces had been resumed more rail-waymen had returned to work. On one London line alone 170 men of 'the tarlfllc staffs were reinstated. In the last twenty-four hours. Full arrange-

ments will be made by which substi- tutes will bo found for any busmen who may strike. 'The movement of food is going remarkably well._ In liW9ll¢Y-fourhours the food ministry cleared ten thousand tons of perish- able food stuffs -from* Metropoll-ian stations without the use of govern- men-t lorries. Normal deliveries by railway companies are starting. Food coal and petrol must be strict- ly economlzed in view of the fact that dislocation of traffic may con'~ tinue for some time.

LARGE ATTENDANCE AT

_PRINCE CO. EXHIBITION

Fine- Autumn lVeather`Attracted a Great Number of People to Fair Yesterday. The Official Opening.

fi-

Flne weather again favored the|

Prince County Exhibition yesterday.. and n very large number attended. Special .trains from East and West as well as' the regular trains brought* a.very large number of visitors from far and near. A large number also came to the town in autos from Char-

lottetown and other points. _ a

Among the out-of~town visitors were

Lieut. Governor -McKinnon, Walter M. Lea. Commissioner of Agriculture,

A. B. Warburton, Supt. Clarke of the Experimental Farm besides -the lud- ges mentioned yesterday. `

-The formal opening /of the Fair

took place in’ the .main building at 2 p.m. and a large number were present to hear the addresses.

The 'President o!_ the Exhibition.

Mr. McArthur, occupied the chair, and lntroduced__the speakers. He stated that he-was -very sorry that there was not a biger showing of exhibits, and was glad tn know that the exhi- bits made up for the shortage in the quality.

He said, that the opening was ar-_

ranged to take place the first day of the Fair. but on account of Hon Mr. McKinnon attending the Fair in Sour- is the opening was postponed.

Lt. Governor McKinnon was then

called on-.to open the Exhibition. His Honor ,said that he agreed with the chairman that the exhibits' were not as large as" they should have been and stated that this had been the case at all -the Island fairs, but the quality of the exhibits shown was excellent.

Taking it all together, he said the

Exhibition wee a good one and com- pared very favorably with the Provin- cial Falr held at Charlottetown. I-Ie urged the exhibitors -to examine all the exhibits shown -and try to surpass them nent year. It gave him great pleasure. he said to _attend the Fair 401% to see euoh a large attendance. ‘ tk Jlmeii. A. Morrison, Mayor_of Bumlneruidevvee next called on and in a few words extended a hearty 'Blooms to ali'ths visitors present. He said that Bummereide was very dependent -upon the patronage \of the reorle of the surrounding oouutrysr the toys has no manufectui-lee and without their =eeel|tance could not exist. He also dwelt on the advantage 0! the <:ar_fei-ryaud broad-guage rail-` wg in esoortingiism pi-oauuu.

He spoke at some length on farm pro- ducts and cattle breeding, and in con- clusion urged that those interested in cattle breeding should be present when the judges were making their awards and by so doing much -could be learned. .

|Ex-Premier Arsenault followed with short address. in reference to the

shortage of the exhibits he said that- in his opinion this is mostly due to the small amount offered for prizes and urged the Exhibitors not to look upon the Exhibition from a commer- cial viewpoint, but from an education standpoint in order that the Province may prosper agriculturally.

iMayor Wright and iMr. Warburton

each gave short and interesting ad- dresses.

The judging of the exhibits g con-

cluded about one o’clock.

All the ludges expressed themselves

as being well pleased with the quality _of the exhibits.

in the main building there was a

very large showing -of apples.

There were not many entries in

pears or plums.

In household science work there

was' a large number of exhibits in can- ned fruits but not many in cake, etc.

Quite a large number of fancy work

articles in Embroidering, Knitting and Crocheting were shown but very few hooked hugs or woven articles.

There was a great showing of vege-

tables and dairy products, but very little grain on account of the late harvest.

iln the Arts Department there was

shown the work done by returned soldiers', also a collection of 29 pain- tings by Miss Mary Doull of New York, who has a summer studio at Cape' Traverse. Some of these were very beautiful.

There was also a good display by

regular exhibitors.

In the outer building there was a

fine showing of horses pigs and poul- try, bu-t few cattle or sheep.

The Exhibition on the whole was

very satisfactory and proved -a source

of! pleasure to the many who attend- e . -

1919 VICTORY

TOItONTO,‘Oct 1.-Thorough endor-

sation of thc Victory Loan of 1919, is expressed by Hon. W. L. MacKenzie King, leader of the Liberal party in the Dominion, in a. letter addressed to the Minister of Finance, `Sir'Henry Drayton. Mr. King lays eniphasis up- on the necessity for the maintenance of Canada’s credit and the desirability that the money required to meet the pressing obligations of the nation should be raised at home.

This is his letter:

Yours sincerely,
