Ottawa had Alec Connell, who learned his hockey in Kingston, between the posts, while the Canadiens trotted out George Patterson, former star of the Kingston juniors, On the are the Cook brothers while Fred line-up of the New York Rangers Brown and "Flat" Walsh are with the Maroons.

MAY SOLVE MADOC MURDER Inquiries from Rochester police Thursday revived hopes of solving the 12-year-old Montgomery mur- der in Madoc. The Rochester au- thorities stated that they were holding a man named Johnson, a former resident of Hastings Coun- ty. They asked full particulars of the unsolved crime, but did not give Belleville officers the reason for their inquiries. Walter Mont- gomery was murdered on Oct. 6, 1916, at Madoc, but it was some- time before his body was discov- ered. After the coroner's inquest his brother Joseph was charged with the crime and lodged in the Belleville jail, In the morning he was found lying in a pool of blood. Brought to Belleville Hospital he died the mext morning. It was thought that Joseph had commit- ted suicide, although there was no clear evidence. The probe into the murder automatically dropped. "COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF" ARGUED Tuesday is the day set for the hearing of the motion en-tered by Frank Regan of Toronto, counsel for W. T. R. Preston and F. W. Wilson, defendants in the $50,000 libel action brought against them by General Sir Arthur Currie, in which the former Commander of the Canadian corps is required to answer questions posed to him at hig examination for discovery three weeks ago. The case continued Thursday with examination of Mr. Preston by counsel for General Currie, Mr. Wilson was also pres- ent, arriving later in the day. IL is understood that one of the im- portant questions argued Thurs- day was the interpretation of the word "Commander-in-Chief." The statement of claim alleges that in the article complained of the fol- lowing sentence occurred: "It was the last day and the last hour, and the last minute, when to glorify the Canadian Headquarters Staff the Commander-in-Chief conceived the mad idea that it would be a fine thing to say that the Canadians had fired the last shot in the Great War." Questions as to the signi- ficance of term, brought from Mr. Preston the statement that the words "Commander-in-Chief" did not necessarily mean General Cur- rie, but whoever issued the order for the attack on Mons, BYGRAVE COMMITTED " FOR TRIAL NEXT FALL St. Catharines, April 6.--Ste- phen Bygrove, the Caistor Centre farmhand who admits fatally shoot- ing Cecil Silverthorne, a neighbor, the night of March 5, was Friday committed for trial by Magistrate J. H. Campbell on a charge of manslaughter. He was defended by W. M. German, M.P.,, Welland, whose application for bail for his client was complied with, The bail is $10,000, by Bygrave him- self and four sureties of $2,000 each, making $18,000, all told. Only two witnesses were put on the stand by Crown Attorney E. H. Lancaster; Dr. Robert Riley, of' Hamilton, who performed the post- mortenr, and Lloyd Tice. Tice said he had been missing grain, and when he and his wife went to a party the night of the shooting he left Bygrave, his farmhand, to watch for the thieves. Tice knew Bygrave took his own shotgun out to the barn. About 11 o'clock By- grave phoned him to come home, and he at once told Tice he had shot Silverthorne, though he did not know who it was at the time, and he thought he had fired over his head, but evidently had held the gun too low. Bygrave will be tried at the autumn Supreme Court here. FRONTIER IS REOPENED Belgrade, Jugoslavia, April ¢.-- The Albanian Charge d'Affaires today notified the Jugoslavian Gov- ernment that Albania had reopen- ed the frontier in the neighbor- hood of Ochrida.

Albania said that a outbreak of typhus was re- sponsible for its action. DETROIT TIGERS WIN Dallas, Tex., April 6.--Detroit Ti- gers won their only major league game of the training scason here to- day when they easily defeated the Pittsburg Pirates, Shampions of the National League, 6 to 3. Billings and Gibson did the pitch- ing for the Tigers, and toyed with the champions all the way until the ninth, when the Pirates bunched five hits and a sacrifice fly off Gibson for three runs, thus escaping a white- wash. The batting feature of the game was the terrific hitting of Harry Heilmann, who had a single, two doubles and a homer in four times up for a perfect batting perform- ance.
