Sir Wilfrid Laurier re- turned last night from his conference with Sir Lomer Gouin and today held tt caucus of his French-Canadian sup- porters. They greeted his speech with loud cheers.

The total days of treatment during the year were 11,653 as compared with 12,026 thc previous year. ln contrasting these figures it must be borne in mind that we had a large number of troops lof cated in Cltarlottetown in 1915-16- the l"ces.rece1ved front the Militia Department having been in excess of $1,000.00; and also this year owing to the decrease in the number of ves- sels entering our port. our receipts i'rt~;u the sick Mariners Fund for at- tendance ou sick sailors was $109.00 less than last' year.
