ER OF THE WEST INCREASED REPRESEN: TATION IN HOUSE. A Very Great Question Will Come "Before the Present Parliament Probably Before Its Term is Finished--East May Have to Yield Some Cabinet Seats. . Ottawa, Jan. 18.--One of the most important questions that the new par- hament of Cenada will have to deal with before its term of office expires will be a redistribution of the par- liamentary ~epresentation from the various provinces, and the recogni- tion of the growing importance of Western Canada by according it a larger representation in the cabinet than at present. In the lgst redistribution of federal seals the'uynit of measurement was about 23 Quebec, by the B.N.A. act, is entitled to sixty-five seats, and sixty-five 'gives the unit of measure ment throdghout the dominion. It is estimated that the unit after the | census of 1911 will be about 25,000. The western people have high hopes of a very much increased representa- tion in the next parliament. Their estimate is from sixty to seventy-five seats, with at least sixty seats west of the great lakes. The power of the west will be felt more and more, and it: would not be a matter of surprise if the next time Sir Wilfrid Laurier appeals" to the country he will have in his ' cabinet a representative from each of the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia. This would, of course, mean the tak- ing away of two portfolios from the east. Ontario men now hold five portfolios in the Laurier cabinet, with the prospects of another (the portfolio of labor) in the near future. Quebec has the 'premiership, three portfolios and the solicitor-generalship. Vacan- cies will not be created to make fur- ther cabinet representation for the west, but added representation will take place in the effluxion of time. Thus: will the opportunities for On turio and Quebec members of the house be lessened, unless, as has been suggested; a portfolio be created for the department of mines and the mari- time representation in the cabinet re duced to two. Have Found A Clue. London, Jan. 18.--New life has been injected into the attempts to unravel the mysterious disappearance last week of Mies Violet Gordon Charlesworth, by the discovery of a tern telegram in a room of an hotel at Tobermory, Scotland, that was vacated iwo days ago by a young woman who fully an- swercd the description of the alleged victim of the Welsh motor car tra- gody.

All forms of constipation, bowel or lintestirm] trouble owe most of their origin to the improper digestion of food.

MILLIONS TO BE INVESTED. Extensionss Now Planhed Around "Soo." Toronto, Jan. 18.--The interests re- presented by Robert Fleming, who, hag acquired the controlling stocks in the Lote Superior Corporation, are both New York and London concerns. The amount already invested is five or six million dollars, and the future may see three times that amount added. As to that, no announcement 'has been made. ' The plans under consideration in- clude the extension not only of the Algoma Central, but of the Manitoul- Big of the Soo industries. The = extension of the latter railway will mean connection between Mani- toulin- Island and the mainland. The line is now built only thirteen miles west of Sudbury, and will go to Lit- tle Current. There is a land bonus for the line; also a bonus of 74,000 acres per mile for the Algoma Central, which will be handed over on comple- tion of the toad. Mr. Fleming is a man of the high- est standing, a man who is able to get twenty others to go into any- thing which he undertakes. He has been identified with a number of big organizations. He is shrewd and able, and represents a huge investment. Mr. Fleming's interests bought over the buildings of the Canadian Im- provement Company Sovereign Bank, and the Philadelphia company. He favors an extension of the Algoma Central to the C. P. R. and Mr. Matheson suggested going to the GTP the extension War Talk Affects Prices. New York, Jan. 18.--J. R. Burton reports the last as a week of feverish markets with sharp movements. Prices have rallied from one to three points only to break in the same manner. There were several happenings of un- usual importance. The minimum rate of discount of the Bank of Fugland was raised from two and a kali to three per cent., its first change since March 28th last. It is unsettling, be ing done to protect the home money market against the constant aceumu- lation of gold by the Bank of France, in preparing to float the $250,000,000 Russian loan and certain rentes of the French government. But in addition it has acoumulated cash far beyond the necessity for these two purposes and in this accumulation lies the mat- ter for alarm. There is anger between the Prussian and French governments and while there is little reason éxpect a war, yet France has been preparing and is 'in excellent shape, while ' the 'Prussian government is hard up and driven to desperation in its efforts to find money for dbmestic demands. The readiness of France and unreadiness of Germany makes for peace, but the outlook is unsettling to the markets of the world.
