The hospital is the cause for which Mme. Mabel Grou- itch was working on her recent trip through the United States. during which she spoke in Hartford. It was Mme. Groultch who inspired Dr. Tra- vig to offer her services. With Dr. T avis will go Dr. Louisa 'llaylor Jones, who will have charge of the or- ganizing of the new hospital and will remain three months. Dr. Travis is a. native of Hampton, New Brunswick. and is a graduate of McGill University. Montreal (Ci1n.) She received hor medical training at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, (Mil.) She has practiced in this city for ten years. She is a former presid- ent of tho Society of Regular Physi- clans. The appointment was received yes- terday from Major Paterson, of the Red Cross Society, and Dr. Travis’ an- nouncement of leaving the city came as a surprise, as she enjoys a large and profitablepractice here. She leaves because of love of the work, in which she is greatly interested( She will leave on the Greek liner, the King (Zonstantiii, sailing from New York next Monday for Salonlca, Greece,fi'oni which she will leave by rail for Nisb, arriving there early in August.

Nli PNNIE IN WNHSNW WEEN EEHMNNS iNllNill _ MOSCO\V_ via I’ctrograd and Lon- don, Aug. G.-llundrcds of refugees i`roin Warsaw are arriving here _daiiy. Most of them are without nioiiey and are seeking aid at the American Con- sulate. where an enlarged staff is attempting to supply temporary assist- ltussiaii relief coniniission. The refugees state that although the population of the Polisii capital was convinced that the Germans ultimately would or-.cupy the city, a majority oi' the citizens elected to remain, only lapproxiinately 15 per ceiit.. to date. having left the city. This accounts for the comparative order and the abseiice ol' panic which came with the exodus. The only ron- tlition attaclicd by the autliorities was lliat the resideiits so leaving would 'not be allowed to return \vitlioiit ri special permit. Those choosing the alternative of departure foresaw that \Vai'saw would be visited with conditions similar to those imposed on lrodz, and that the -town would be cut oll` from the interior ‘of Russia. whence all provisions were cbtaiiinblo, and that Warsaw would suffer from famine. The refugees compare the orderly and systeniatlcal aliaiidonniciit ot' the city with the panic caused by tho iirst German approach last Septcinber. when an attempt of the city oiiieials. liistltutions and private citizens to all bolt at once, resulted in indescribable confusion. The retirement this time was so tgnrofiilly planned and so systematic- allv execiiteil tlint it went off like clockwork. and an onlookcr received the impression that a no more extra- ordinary plienoinenon wus occurring than tho ordiiinry summer exodus. Suilir-lent extra trains had been pro- vided. so that travelling conditions on the whole differed little from normal.

The in- debtedness of the province was $1,070,000. This figure was testified to by two independent bankers-gem tlemen whose political leanings he did not know and did not care to know. He had their report showing every dollar that went to make up that computation, and if there was one present in the audience who doubted ‘it there was the record to prove it, and he could "have it for perusal. Those who read the "Patriot" and b'e- ‘lieved it (and the number of those who believed ` it was 'growing less every day) would hearit said that the debt of the province in the last year of;Liberal power was $904,000. The Liberal year ended on the 30th S t. 1911 and they did show $904,000, ‘gilt they kept it for two months and two days. during which time they paid out $83,000 more than they took in, as was shown by the records.. There were -debts and liabilities that they did not pay. amounting to $850,000, and these, added together brought the total to $1,072,000. The Premier then went on to speak of the Dominion sub- sidy. I-Ie was here interrupted by Mr.. Anthony McLauchlin. who stated that the $100,000 was only granted be- cause 'Manitoba had her subsidy in- creased. Mr. Mathicson in reply, stat- ed that Manltoba‘s increase was on account of tho two provinces of Al- berto and Saskatchewan having been newly created, and receiving 9, large amount of subsidy, and that Manitoba had got. hers irierensed on that ac- count. This was in 1905, or two years before the Island delegates wont to Ottawa. lf that was so the delegates on that occasion had every right to put their claims forward, which they failed to do. The delegates who thus failed were Liberals. (This retort was loudly applauded). The lionorable John McLean and Mr. A. I.. Fraser also addressed tho meeting with their usual force and eloquence, and they received a splen- did hearing.
