There are so many men quartered there that space for sleeping accommodation is lacking and will continue to be until the drafts that were authorized on Saturday ate sent overseas. There are 220 men on the top floor, a great number sleeping on the floors . Men are now at work erect- and this will help to relieve the coagestion on this floor, but recruits will continue {to pour in as they have been doing, lowing to the attraction of the bat- itefies for recruits and in the near {future they will again bé crowded before a draft can be sent oyerseas. There are about 270 men in the 34th Battery, but this large number are to a great extent being taken care of as the 34th has the largest {floor in the building. The offices, formerly used by the ! Cereals Ltd,. and now by the battery medical officer and supervisor of training, are on the second floor, that used by the 32nd Battery, and A A A AAA NEWLANDS terboro He is a son of William Kingston's well-known ar- LIEUT. & F | With the 93rd ¥P {Battalion | Newlands, {chitect there are 217 men in this battery in- cluding the thirty-nine men whom Capt.

The mnor- {mal strength of a battery is 142 and {all of these batteries are over that | Istrength. It also speaks well for the 'reputaion of the batteries through-| jout the country by the way the men lare pouring in.

It defeated the 14th Regiment team by 6 to 1. The offi- cers are so proud of the team that uniform is being purchased. There are two players who played with the Imperial League in England. As the harness has arrived, driv- ing drill will be given to the artil- lery men as soon as possible . Lieut.-Col. Floyd, O.

Whether to or whether not to pur- chase 500 feet of. factory hose for the city buildings, to replace 900 feet of condemned cotton hose, occu- pied fifteen minutes of the City Council's time last evening. The hose purchase side won by 12 to 4. The Property Committee, on the advice of the fire chief, recommend- ed that the hose be purchased. Ques- tions were raised by some aldermen as to whether so much hose was really needed. Ald Nickle thought 500 feet too much. So- did Ald. O'Connor. "Safety first" was AM. Hughes' advice to council. Protect the city buildings, said he, and take no hances. "We have a fire siation less than 100 yards away," said Ald. Stroud. "Yes," responded Ald.

Koett- gen, a solid looking German, for twenty years editor and London cor- respondeft of The Berlin Vorwaerts, speaking at the Broad Street Theatre this afternon, shoek his finger at the audience that filled the house, shouted: "Democracy will suffer Germany wins the war'. He was talking on '"Imperialism and World Politics" before the Socialist Liter- ary Society . Referring to the Ger- man n Prince, who had express- ed a desire for a "jolly war," Mr. Koettgen said he had got it, and the "probable result is that he will lose' his erown about it." Mr. Koettgen did not confine his criticism to Germany . He phrased his lecture from the standpoint of an internationalist, and showed no na- tional prejudice. He said that if any combination of nations won the war a terrible militarism would re- sult. a Teuton CANADIAN OFFICER IN GERMANY Report On Camp Received aor | oF The American Ambassador.
