Ottawa, Oct. 19.--Lord Kitchen er's call for three million men and the urgent necessity of increased re- cruiting in order to bring the war to a speedy and successful conclusion is taken as involving the necessity of Canada contributing a more effective quota than at present to the cause of the Empire. It is reasonable to anticipate that in the course of a few weeks, or at any event before long, authority will be issued for raising additional troops in this country. By spring it is probable that upwards of 200, | 000 men will have been enlisted or will be in process of recruiting. At the present time about 140. 000 men have been enlisted. There are 60,000 at the front, 30,000 in England, 32,000 training in Canada, and about 10,000 doing guard duty in different pants of the Dominion, while to this properly should be add- ed about 10,000 casualties, probably half of the victims of which will. be able to return to the front. Minister of Militia returned from Great Britain it was anticipated that Cabinet Crisis (Special to the Whig.) London, Oct. 19.-- Whether or not Attorney-General Sir Edward Car- son's resignation foreshadows the | present British Cabinet's fall, was a | topic much discussed by politicians |and the press here to-day. Og all | sides the crisis was recognized #5 a grave one. "We should regret," said the Lon- don Globe, summing up the situation, | "to see the Government come down, { but it assuredly must fall unless it can show strength and decision in | such grave matters as the Gallipoli | expedition, the rescue of Serbia, the problem of recruiting and waste, and attacks by Zeppelins. The nation cries out for leaders who can show courage to -face the truth. Jt the Cabinet fails now, it will fall' FRENCH ARE INSTALLED In Positions. They Took From The Germans. (Special tp the Whig.)

Another factor in the situation which Militia authorities say makes delay is securing adequate equip- ment. Men capnot be sent overseas without arms or without clothing, a there is good ground for the as sertion that recruiting is keeping apace with the turning out of, the es- sential equipment.
