THE FISHERIES ' TREATY United States Has Not Passed Necessary Legislation and Canada May Withdraw. A despatch from Ottawa says: It now l'ooks as if Canada. is about} ‘to withdraw from the internatieuil fisheries treaty concluded with the United States in 1908. It will be remembered that, under the terms of the treaty, regulation govern- ing the fisheries in international waters were drawn up by the com- missioners, Professor Prince For Canada and Professor Starr Jordan for the United States. These re- gulations were to become effective after concurrent proclamations by the Governorâ€"General of Canada and the President of the United States. The necessary legislation to enable the proclamation was passed by the Parliament of Can- ada during the session of 1910, re- ceiving the unanimous approval of both political parties. The Ameri- can authorities have' failed, how- ever, to pass the legislation re- Church Property Hitherto Unsus- pected in Oporto Cathedral. .

The accumulations of wealth date from centuries When Portugal was a rich colonial power. The chests discov- ered are filled with gold ingots and plates and gold ornaments studded with enormous rubies. The altar furniture is of pure gold. The dis- coveries have caused a. sensation in this city. It is presumed the treasure will revert to the State under the separation law. Turkish Battalions Revoltcd, but, Wore Quelletl by Loyal Troops. A despatch from Constantinople says: Cholera continues to spread among the troops who have recent- ly returned from Albania. Three battalions of Anatolin troops, who were quarantined at Mitrovitza beâ€" cause of the prevalence of the dis- ease among them, demanded that they be sent home. When this was refused they mutinied and seized a. train, on which they proposed to get; away. Loyal troops suppressed the mutiny, and the leaders will be put to death. Several suspicious cues of illness, believed to be cholera, are reported from Crete. Son of a London Contractor Was Seriously Laccratcd.

MURDERED IN BUSH. q11iF€d to put the treaty i1}teri:fect. After the regulations had been drawn up it was found that cer- tain interests, notably in the State of Michigan and on the Pacific coast of the United States. were opposed to their promulgation. These interests desired changes in the regulations to harmonize with their views. It is understood that representations to that end were made to Ottawa, but it is now known that Canada months ago positively declined to accept the suggested modifications, and it is generally supposed that the Gov; ernment has served or is about to serve the United States authorities with notice of withdrawal from the ‘ treaty altogether. In any event it ‘is no longer a secret that the Ca- ‘na/dian authorities are resolved to i not accept the changes proposed by the United States. death was a pistol shot fired at close range. A letter was found in his pocket, bearing the address of Andrew. Saman, 21 Foak Street, Virginia Mine. The dead man had been shot some fifty feet from where the body was found and the body had been dragged along the ground by the heels until it had become wedged between two trees, where it was left. The trail was in di- rect line with a nearby swamp. Three-ton Rail Placed Acrosn Track Near London.

The rail had been placed where a wreck would have been unavoidable, for there is a. down- gradewvith avst‘eep embankment, a‘wvw- '--~-- v vâ€" ‘ on both sides. It was discovered by the engineer of~a west-bound freight train. FIRST CARGO 011‘ NEW WHEAT 13,000 Bushels are Shipped From Head of Lakes.

This grain graded No. 1 anvao. 2 Northernmend showed a very good sample for the first ar- rival. It was shipped, as has been usual for several years, for James Richardson Sons, Limited, Kingâ€" ston, to Owen Sound. There will doubtless be a steady run of ship- ments now until the new grain be- comes general. ATTEMPT T0 WRECK TRAIN. More Trouble in Paris, and Several Shops Were Looted. A despatch from Paris .says: The food riots in the north are ex‘ tending in gravity, particularly at Roubaix. There were two riots in Paris on Saturday at the markets, and several shops were ransacked. Prefect Lepine headed the police, and finally dispersed the mob. The housewives have tabulated the prices of food and demanded that the dealers sell at; their figures. F001] PRICES of Commerce and Agriculture re- spectively, made a report on their investigation on the present high cost of living. The report stated that the same conditions prevailed throughoutvEurope. The Cabinet approved a. scheme to ameliorate the situation by facilitating the im- portation of cattle and frozen meats by installing refrigerating and storage plants, of which there are a lack in France, by donandin’g that the railways lower thcir rates for thevtransportation Of food, rind by suspending the tariffs on fodders.
