This will be the seventh of the peace trea- ties, mnd the first negotiated with a European nation. The negotiation of the peace treaty constitutes the most important work to be undertaken by Chevalier Van Rsppard, who assumed the Nether- 1and’s mission here only last month. The text of the pact agreed upon yesterday will be witheld until Mr. Bryan and Chevalier Van Rappard have signed it. The principal feature of the peace Plan as announced by Secretary Bry- an is a provision for an investiga- tion tliroughout a teriod of at least one year of anv misunderstanding. be- tween tlie signatory nations, by a commission U five members, one to be chosen from each of the contract- ing countries, by their respective governments, one to be chosen by . each of the contracting governmental from some other country; and tbni fifth to be agreed upon by the con-, tracting governments. Mr. Bryan al- so announced his readiness to con- sider the question of maintaining the statue quo as to naval and military preparations during the per- iod of proportion, with a stipulation that this provision could be waived if one of the stlgnstory found itself menaced by a frd power. From the outset Mr. Bryan has maintained that the principle of in. veltigation being accepted the other details are matters for conference and compromise. .._;.._._ ' IMMIGI-lxNT§ FOR CANADA. craft left behind her a perceptible t li at Still we could look at all the places I knew when a child and note the many changes.

We ran into a storm in the lower part of Maine,and when we got home it was pouring rain. The next day I went out to see the Usher family, and wegot pretty well soaked before we reached the house, although it was only a block and a half away from the cars. They were all waiting to see us. But the only one whom I would have known was Willie’s mother. She is a woman 84 years of age and as smart as any of her girls. To her I did 'riot seem so changed, but the girls would not have known me and I certainly would not have known them. But we had .a pleasant visit a-;id were with them nearly e. week, then I had to visit with Mrs. Web- ster. She took mc round to all the summer resorts and I had a most lovely time. But all good things must end, and it was with n sad heart that I said farewell to Sister Tillie and her dear family and start- ed on our long and strenuous jour- ney. We were eight long days and nights on the cars from Portland and be sure I was tired and dusty and glad to get home. The last I saw of them, all my dear ones, was Clarence and Tillie and Georgie with the dear little baby in her arms. I don’t wonder people think it a hard trip to California, you ride days and days over such uninteresting fiat country and no pretty green fields or trees to break the monotony of the scene and the last of our trip is over and through great mountainous grey rocks and the dust so thick in most of the places that one can hardly breathe. We are in our own city now which seems good, although we need rain very much.

BIG MAIL CARGO FOR OLD COUNTRY MONTREAL, Dec. 16-It took a. specinl train, run in two sections of four cars each last night, to convey _ Jack Canuck's Christmas mail to 1 John Bull. There will be other big shipments of mail greetings and more tangible matter to the Old Country, but the loads sent away this even- ing contain the letters and packages that will get to the old folks, wives, and sweethesrts in time for Christ- mas Eve, which is even more of B festival over there than Christmas day is here. The mountains of mail that trav- elled by the Royal George from St. John yesterday included over eight hundred thousand ordinary letters, 7,230 parcels, 17,105 registered let- ters and packages, besides four bun- dred sacks of newspapers. The ordi- nary letters were contained in 888 socks weighing about 20,280 pounds; tnere were sixty two sacks of regis- tered mail, and 165 baskets of par- cels. Altogether ths Christmas mail shipped from Montreal last ' night for the British Isles and European countries weighed about forty tons.
