Wandering about the’ hills be- tween Nineveh and. Pleasant River in a night-long rain, Naarnan Smith this morning at four o'clock came out on the New Elm road and was admitted to the house of Joseph Uhlrnan, where he had a hot breakfast and was given a paper bag of provision to take with him. "I’m looking for work," he told the Uhlmana. Telephones are few and far between in this district. They knew Smith, but did not know he was wanted for murder. Five hours later Smith visited James I-llxtles, at whose home he stayed for two hours. The l-Iirtles also knew him, but not the cause o‘! his wandering, they said. The night before, at nine Qiclock, an unnamed man had asked! admit- tance to Henry Hermanshcuse at New Elm. Mr. Herman had gone to bed and his wife was nervous. She spoketo him through the door and he finally said “good right" and went away. Police were only fifteen or twen- ty rninutes behind the fugitive when he reached William Falken- ham’s. They had followed the trail all day, gradually overtaking their quarry. He carried no gun when admitted to settlement houses. Duke Applies For Licence In New York City GREENWICl-I, Conn, Dec. 15.

WHEAT QUOTA Continued from page 1 iicial organ oi the British milling trade. “rhe-Miller" forecasted the quota which the British government would propose as 15 percent do- mestic, 55 per cent Dominion grown wheat and 80 per cent foreign. The suggestion here is that a confusion has arisen as to the per- centage all the Dominlons, chief- ly Canada and Australia, would furnish and Canada's proportion alone. Information here is that it is estimated Canada would furnish approximately 80 per cent of the Dominionb quota or about as per cent of the wheat used in Greet Britainétlhis is thought to be the reason the figure 55 per cent has crept in. _ There is known to be a consider- able feeling on the part of the, miilers in Great Britan that the, ‘situation could better b: met by a; traiff than a quota and a substan- tial support in this view is said to be found among members of Per- iiamenthA small tariff against for-' eigr. wheat giving Empire _________._ WANTED-MAID roa arsenal. housework.

Death Was Accidental NEW WATERFORD, N. S.- Dec. 15—-(B‘y the Canadian Press)—The death of Walter Grace, nineteen year old New Waterford miner, kill- ed last night in a scuffle, was ac- cidental, a Coroner's jury found to- day-Denis McNeil, with whom Grace was fighting just previous to his death, and who had been. held by police, was released. Evidence at the inquest was that Grace was intoxicated when he en- tered the U. M. W. l-lall during a meeting of the local, and that he struck McNeil, a visiting miner from another local, in the face. In the course of a general melee that followed, Grace went down over a row of chairs and was left lying there, believed to be in a drunken stupor, when the meeting broke up in general disorder. GROUP Continued from page 1 Federal authorities, making use of the National Credit Corporation, with the aid or the State authorities, a speedy plan of reorganization could be accomplished for the re- opening of all the institutions. He said he knew of no reason why any other banks in the State should be affected. Bank commissioner Arthur Guy, pointing out that the trust com- panies were "affiliated with and con trolled by the Federal National Bank, no other course remained but to take possession oi the trust com- panies to conserve the assets and for the protection of depositors. "No other State banks are identi- fied with l; group," he said, add- ing, "The Boston Clearing House Association has stated in the press I 5"“ m“ in their bust judgment the ords cf the instituvnii u- i‘l crsentially banking situation i sound and safe." CARE OF PATIENTS Continued from page 1 night, however, no trace of their whereabouts, had been reported. Relief Measures The prwsing emergency created by the fire is the immediate care and accommodation of the patients. The following temporary arrange- ments have been made by the Board of Trustees. Last night twenty-eight patients were accommodated in the Prince Edwird Island Hospital and twenty live in the Charlottetown Hospital. and the Sacred Heart Home. 'l'his it is believed, would sufllciently relieve the congestion in the Infir- mary, where the remaining patients are temporarily accommodated. It was considered advisable not to remove these patients from the In- ilnnary last evening. Filrther arrangements for their accommodi- ticn will be considered torliy. Many offers have been received of the use of buildings for housing the patients but it has not been pos- sible to get these quarters ready for last night. The services of more attendants will be required if the patients are removed, and it will take some time to secure persons qualified for this work. The Government has granted tickets of leave to a number of prohibition offenders in the Queenie County Jail so as to provide ac- commodaticn in the jail for the vio- lent Falconwood patients. One or more o.’ the present jail inmates will be transferred to other jail quarters. N. n. OFFERS AlD ‘ A generous oilci- has been re- ceived from the New Brunswick Government. Premier Richards has wired Premier Stewart, offering to nccomodate 100 Falconwod patients in the institution at Saint John. The Falconwood Hospital trustees have not yet decided what policy they will adopt with regard to car- ing for patients over a period oi’ time, and for the pfesent this oilcr is under grateful consideration. ~44 A -e.u r'“ ' r At a meeting yesterday after- noon of the Filconwocd Hospital trustees, members of the City Council and representative citizens, the following committee of cltironsi was appointed to‘ co-opcrate with and assist the board of trustees in dealing with the emergency. Mes- srs George D. DcBlois, Hon. F. R. Heartz, W. E. Bentley. K. C., Dr. Goodwill, and Coilncillor Samuel Kennedy. A good deal of hospital bedding and equipment have been salvag- ed, and other supplies necessary for the relief of the fire victims ‘will be supplied by the Government. A survey will be held very short- ly of the ruins, with the object of ascertaining the cost of reconstruc- tion. Full Inquiry To Be Hold Telephone communication with the lnfirmzry was restored WSW!" day’. The Government had made ar- rangements to place about $75,000 additional insurance on the build- ing under a general readjustment scheme, but unfortunately the fire came before arrangements were completed. The actual insurance, as stated in yesterday's Guardian, was about $107,000. The building, which originally cost $250,000 would prob- ably cost double that amount to re- place today. Reconstruction work, when it is undertaken, will involve the build- ing oi a modern, flre proof edifice. or possibly a. number of smflllol‘ buildings on the cottage sytem. which is in operation, successfully in other places. Under this system the ofllce would be centrally lodat- ed, but in a separate building and there would be easier access to any part of the institution in the case cf fire. The old building was never re- garded 1.15 satisfactory for the pur- pose for which it; was used and the many winding stairs and galleries made it a veritable death trap in the case of such a catastrophe’ B8 occurred on Mondly night. But for men, police, and citizens generally, the toil of life would undoubtedly have been much greater. In this connection mention should be made of the splendid work oi a number of nurses from both hos- pitals, who arrived promptly at the scene of the fire and rendered in- valuable assistance in looking af- ter the patients. The greater part of the Furniture in addition to ofllce records was removed from the burning build- ing. In addition to the Al-mouries and Strand Theatre, preparations were made on Monday night to take care of 75 patients in Rosary Hall and vacant classrooms in Queen Square Schoch These emergency measures, however, were not nec- csszry. INQUIRY Continued from page 1 it was the belief of Fire Chief Mc- l‘ ‘- that the fire could have been extinguished at the time the firemen arrived. Coroner Dr. L. B_ McKenna. pre- sided at the inquest, which was held in MBCLGSIYS undertaking rooms. The following witnesses were ex- amined: Dr. R. D. McLaughln, Dr. Hillard Clarke, Fire Chief Angus McEachcrn, Dr. R. J. Ledwell, and Charles Jenkins. ‘ Dr. Ledweli, sworn. testified he received a, call to Falconwood Hos- pital. He arrived there and looked around. He was called to see a man, Francis MacDonald. in the Infirm- ary. He found the man in a state of collapse, suffering from a. brok- on shoulder, a backward dislocation of the elbow and fractured ribs. The witness said he recommended the removal of the man to the City Hospital. He was taken there and died. about an hour later. It was A complete investsigation into the cause of the fire will also be held as soon as the emergency problem 0_ ' providing winter accommodation for the patients ha: been dealt with.

Superintendent Testifies Dr_ McLaughlin, Superintendent of Fawcnwocd Hospital, testified lie could not tell vcry much about Francis MacDonald. The man was an inmate of the Hospital for about six weeks. He was in ward five on the third floor. The witness was told by Joe Murphy, a Warden that MacDonald got cut of bed, tore off the wire guard on the win- dcw and jumped out. Witness did not see it happen. Witness testified John MaoKc-n- ,zie was cock for the patients. About four months ago he insisted on being allowed to sloop in. tile nt- ‘rtic in it was quieter there and he could sleep better.’ Shortly after ‘sending in the alarm witness went , outside to look at the fire and heard ‘a mun calling from an attic win- ‘dow on the east ciid cf the west wing. He was at an open window ‘calling for help. Attendants carried ‘several mattresses and placed them ‘beneath the window. An. extension ladder was brought and raised to , the window. After some coaxing the man crawled out and hung onto the window ledge. It was snowing and dark at the time. A man start- ed up the ladder to give assistance. When he ivas about linlf way up McKenzie in fooling for the ladder apparently sillllfd a.d fell a dis- tance of nbnnt 50 ioct. He was car- ried inside nnti-urtificlal respiration applied.

When witness saw fire it was breaking through the roof. He stated electricians had been repair- ing the wiring for several weeks. He also stated that some of’ tho best patients who were allowed in the attic were in the habit of snack- ing there. Witness testified Mi; Payne (the dispensing clerk at the hospKal) phoned him of the fire. Witness telephoned the Police Station. The fire was then breaking through the roof. He thought some of the war- dens were first to see the fire. Dr. McLaughlin stated they had a water system from the supply tank, each ward being provided with hose. The hose would not be long enough to reach the attic. He. stated the firemen could not connect their hose to the tank. On being asked by the jury how far the ladder was from the win- dowsill witness stated that it was about a foot ‘from the window but a ledge projected over which the man must reach to feel for the lad- der. Heard Victim Call Dr. Clarke, Assistant Superin- tendent, (sworn), stated they were taking patients from male ward one to female ward one when MacDon- , aid was carried in. Witness did not then know what was the matter iwith MacDonald. He helped carry the man in, they placed him on tcndant to keep an eye on him. Witness then went out with Dr. McLaughlin and heard McKenzie ilndder was being brought witness blankets. He was probably still do-i lng so at time lvloKerizie fell. Witness testified‘ he and Mr.- Payne were in the front officei when the fire whistle blew. Witness? went down the hall and met an at- tendant who told him the fire was bad. Witness phoned the firemen He then went through ward one t0 ward two on the ground floor. Men were there with fire hose putting water up an old elevator shaft. They were doing the same thing in ward four on the second floor. Fire could be seen coming down the chute and appeared to be in the chute. This wag about; 3,15, They continued using water until they had to leave to remove pa- tients from the wards. Witness went outside and saw fire bursting through the roof. Asked by the jury if McKenzie had any exit, witness stated there was a stairs near the door of McKenzie: room, H9 was in the east part of the west wing and was not cut. off by fire. Witness stated there were 212 pa- tients in the building at the time. Thcrc were ten. attendants, only half of whom were on night duty. Attendanfls Evidence Charles Jenkins. sworn, testified he was an attendant in ward three. At the timeof thb fire he was Playing cards in that ward. He heard a patient in ward four shout that ward six was on fire. They rushed to ward six and discovered the elevator shaft on fire. They carried water in pails 33d uggd fire hose.

Fire Grief Testifies Angus Mwachern, Fire Chief, sworn, stated he was at Prince Ed- ward Island Hospital at time of out- break. He had put in a telephone call for a man to drive him to the city. Central made the connection and then cut it ofl. She later apologized, saying there was an em- ergency csll from the Fire Station to the Odd Fellows Hail. This was about 8.30. Witness got in touch with Mr. Mathieson at the Fire Sta- tion, who told him there was a bad fire at Fhlconwcod. Witness tcld Mr. Mathieson to ring the alarm and said he would be in as soon as possible. He had to wait about three minutes for the car to arrive, but was at the station within five minutes. Witness stated they knew from experience it was impossible to get the pumping engine on Falcon- wood wharf, so onlysent the. ladder and chemical engines. When they arrived at the scene there was no need of ladders cr chemicals, the fire had too much headway. At 8.50 about two-thirds of the top storey was gone. Witness did not see MacDonald or McKenzie. The chemical engine carried only about 60 gallons of chemicals and was of no use on a fire oi this size. About 130 the pumper was taken out and used until 4.30. Witness did not inspect the tank of F lconwood water syetem. There he arrived. Witness did not believe there was any connection on the tank for fire hose. Witness stated he did not order 11°55 flllbllrd artificial respiration.
