The big banquet rooms of the club ere completely filled when Premier rden rose, following Hon. Mt. , and his welcome was most enthusiastic. When he declared Cana- dian loyalty was more pronounced now than ever before, he caught the audience, which applauded long and loud. The Oanadian Premier sug- gested amidst cheers that it might be well for British Ministers to visit Canada. In closing, the noble chairman de- scribed the event as a glorious even- ing. The club had been much hon- | ored in the Canadians' visit, and had dene honor to itself and the cause of | represented in having "illustrious statesmen' as guests. Hon. J. D.

All are de- 'olared to ba out of danger, but it will be' several days before most of them can return to duty, while a few are seriously injured. The fire was not extinguished until fiTpany six o'clock last evening. It | started shortly after noon as the men | were leaving for lunch, and is thought i to have originated from am overheated | pan of boiling grease. The entire | brigade was called out and the fire was finally confined to the building in which it started, the packing plant, a four-storey brick building which was completely destroyed. The plant. contained the cold storage de- pane and it was from -this that ammonia fumes come)! The slaughter house was saved. Last night it was said that no ac curate estimate of the damage eomld be gi but. that 3 ones ba, that fi would } Valuable machinery was also i loss is covered by insurance, Three alarms were turned in in quick | succession, so threatening vas the outlook, as the plant is situated in | the heart of the factory district. Almost the first fireman to enter | the building, Fireman Marquis, was | overcome by fumes. He fell from | the third storey and sustained severe | internal injuries. A few other fire. | men sustained cuts from broken win- | dow glass, but the reat of the injured suffered only from smoke and gas. It was a desperate fight for a time for firemen after firemen succumbed to the fumes, and their successors | not only had to carry on the fight, | but had to assist their comrades to | windows from which they were lower- ed by ropes to the ground. | | All afternoon reinforcements were | constantly on their way to the scene | to replace those who had fallen, and it wae not until 8 o'clock that the victory was finally complete. To Work Together. | London, Aug. 2.--8ir Edward Gtey, the Foreign Becretary, speaking % the House of Commons yesterday on the atrocities in connection with the rubber industry in the Putomayo dis- | | trict of Peru, said that the British Government did not wish to rest con- tent with making the facts public, | but had done all possible through di- | vlomatic means to impress Peru with he undesirability of permitting such a state of affairs to continue. | The British Government, he said, | is keeping im the closest touch with J the United States in this matter, and | public opinion in the United States | would undoubtedly prove a potent | factor in preventing a recurrence. It had been arranged for the British and American consuls to leave together on Aug. 5 for Putomayor, and the consals' presence in that district would be a guarantee that the horrors would not be repeated without the world know- ing it | Taft Accepts Nomination. | Washington, D.C., Aug. 2.--Presi- ydent Taft at noon yesterday received | in the historic east m of the White House the committee appointed by the Chicago convention to formally notify him of his nomination. Sena- tor Root, who was chairman of the convention, made the announcement and assured the President that no Presidential candidate ever had a clearer title to the momination. | The President at gnee replied in a | speech of such great length that many | of those present supposed it to be his letter of acceptance He took the precaution, however, of saying that he might supplement yesterday's | speech by a further communication to the committee in writing. Reciprocity Agreement Carried. Port of Spain, Trinidad, Aug. 2.-- The first reciprocity agreement with Canada was carried yesterday in the Legislative Council by 13 votes against 5, and in the Chamber of Commerce by a majority of one vote. The opponents of the agreement ar- gued that it would be no benefit to | the colony outside of the sugar in- {ustry, and would probably be harm- ful to the cocoa and cocoanut indus- try. The supporters of the agreement urged that its acceptance would show | the Tmperial sentiment of Trinidad | and that it would be the first step to- ward general trade within the British Empire.
