The charge against little Margaret was that she was being reared "in a bureau drawer," and she looked small enough to play the part. But Mrs, J. Gildea, No. 817 East Eighth street, the baby's foster mother, said the baby really slept on a pillow on a chair, "I adopted her from a home near Fairmount park," said Mrs. Gildea, who had no papers .to show for such action.

When thé grain bill was reached, Sir Wilfrid announced that several amendments would be sul mitted, each requiring a division, and the government abandoned ite efforts to get the measure through yester- day. The voling . was of unusual signifi' cance. Both Premier Borden and Hon.

Mr. Macdonald, following Sir Wil frid's protest of Thursday, took issue by a resolution against the proposal to leave the minister tg spend all the highway grants on his, own initative on the ground that it laid the admin- istration of the subsidies open to grave constitutiofal and ' political abuses. 70 DIVIDE THE GRANTS ACCORDING TO POPULATION OF THE PROVINCES, But Premier Borden and Mr. €och- rane Voted to Allow the Minister to Spend the Money as he Wished.
