Russian Advance To Be Fol- lowed by British and French Offensive, Rome Hears. Rome, June 13.--As a result of the Russian offensive in Galicia, the news of which was hailed with joy, the Austrian pressure is expected to decrease in the Trentino, especially since the members of the Ruusian delegation here are now convinced that the Russsian offensive is a pre- lude to a general effensive of the al- lies along the western front. Meanwhile the Italilan resistance in the Trentino is solid. The occu- pation of Mount Cengelio is a mere focal success, and does not open an outlet to invasicn, since the immed- iate positions of the valley of Asti- co form a barr'er which the Aus- trians are powerless to overcome et- pecially cince it has failed to drive the Italians dominating the lateral positions.

Now that, for the present, the demands on the patriotic fund have been met all over Canada not a few of the organiations formed to con- duct campaigns for money for this purpose have turned their atten- fon in other directions. Rather than let the patriotic bodies become inactive and disorganized between I times many of these are voluntarily giving their efforts towards raising money and assisting in securing do- nations for the Belgian Relief Fund. The terrible plight of the Bel- gian people the mute suffering of the women and children, not only | torn from their husbands and fath. { ers but literally starving has been vividly pictured time and time again and these Canadians wish to do something for them. Whenever they bave been active their efforts have resulted in much good and their work has been appreciated by the Belgian Relief Committee, when the reports have come into the office at 69 St. Peter street, Montreal. Apart, perhaps, from the Patriot- ic Fund there is no cause to which Canadians owe more to-day than to the Belgian Relief Fund. Next to those of our own blood who are fighting for us, we should consider those of the little nation who stood betwéen us and the calamity of Ger- man rule, while we prepared to fight the issue to the end. These same people whom we owe so much--three million of them, women and children---are to-day liv- ing on a pint of soup and three shic- es of bread daily with absolute star- vation rapidiy approaching them. The cost of feeding one Belgian woman or child for a month is only slightly over a dollar and at' pres- ent a dollar means little to the av- erage Canadian. That is why the Belgian Relief Committee, 59 Peter street Monireal, is making its ap- pea! and wl the services of these patriotia organizations are so ac- ceptable, U. 8.

The moment be- fore he had said: "Undoubtedly, gen- tiemen, this is the duty of America to be prepared." President Wilson ,promised in be half of the United States to uphold the Monroe doctrine. He promised, too, what he did not promise when he made the recent peace league speech, "that when the time comes America will be ready to join the other na- tions to see that that kind of justicg| that we believe in prevails every- where." To be military does not mean mili- taristic, the President sald.

Hamilton, June 13.--Members of the Canadian Manufacturers' Assocla- tion are strongly opposed to the present volunteer system of recruit- ing men for the overseas service, and the convention will likely go on record in favor of registration when the matter is discussed on Thursday during a trip to Niagara camp. Not a single member could be found who did not favor the system of registra- tion and selection. "I am sure that the assembly will g0 on record as favoring registra- tion," said President J. H. Sherrard, of Montreal. 'The selection method is the only way. That of course means compulsion." "There is no doubt but that regis- tration is the only method," said Hon. Col.

From Riga | to the Jasiolda river, north-west -of the Pripet marsh region, the Ger- mans have taken the offensive against the Rusisans, probably in an effort to divert the attention of the Rus- sians, who are in the second week of their drive against the Austro-Hunga- rians and Germans from the Pripet marshes southward to Bukowina. On all sectors of the northern line the Russians have successfuly with- stood the German onslaughts and driven the attacking forces back. They gained ground against them north of the Tirml marsh, th-west of Riga, says Pe- trograd. Ni On Cakadan Anunitin Sol To Great Britain. BONAR LAW CABLES THAT BRITISH ADMIRALTY PAID 825 THOUSAND No Commission Was Charged on the Transaction, (Special tn the Whig.) Ottawa, June 13.--John Fraser, Auditor-General, in the Davidson commission this morning produced a cable from Colonial Secretary Bonar Law, which stated that the British Admiralty paid $25 per thousand for small arms ammunition sold by the Canadian Militia Department to Col. J. Wesley Allison for $20 per thou- sand, and the Admiralty paid all ex- Ppenses of insurance, cartage, ete. It had been contended that no commis- sion had been charged on the trans- action, but that by mistake the charge was made for insurance, etc., which charge was afterwards with- drawn. Mr. Hutcheson: asked if there was another transaction which might be confused in the communication. Fras- er declared that he was not aware of any. The letter of the Governor-Gene- ral's secretary asking for information was specific. Bonar Law had identi- fied the transaction or he would not have sent a reply. He had a perfect understanding of what was referred to. The description was 'specific,' said Sir Charles Davidson. Col. J. F. MacDonald, chief ord- nance officer of the Militia Depart- ment, was to-day cross-examined by Mr. Dewart. "Was the Minister of Militia cog- nizant of the destination of the am- munition?" Mr. Dewart asked. "He put his initials on the letter," the witness replied. UNDILUTED AMERICANISM To Be the Slogan of the Republican Candidate. Special to the Whig.)
