Ottawa, Dec: 3T.--The Militia De- partment has received a communica~ tion from the British 'War Office to the effect that the cable will be used more freely in future to convey in- formation regarding casualties among sqldiers of the Imperial army to next-of-kin who live in yanada. With regard to-officers, all dasualty reports will be cabled and" all new information, including admissions to hospitals and progress reports will also be cabled as soon as recéived. In the case of their ranks, the cable vill be used to. announce deaths, dangerous illness or cases when men are wounded or missing, It will also be used for any conse- quential reports: All other' information, including admissions to hospitals overseas of cases not regarded as dangerows will be notified froin the record office by post. The War Office remarks that: when an officer or man is re- ported - missing, often the speediest way to obtain details of the cireum- stances in which the casualty oc- curred is to write to a comrade, or the officer commanding the unit. Should the person concerned be a prisoner of war, it is usual for his relatives to hear from him before the enemy authorities notify .the War Office. -------------- WHICH tt + EIvets, War operations in (h» North Sea especially the activity of the German fleet, have been in view of the rasi- dents of the west coast of Jutland all surnmer, ravs a despalch from Copenhagen.

It the flying craft signal peace and no danger, the trawlers proceed boldly, stopping only at the northern end of the mine belt, where they turn round; the submarines evidently do not any longer need assistance. Until midsummer the trawlers used to stop a little before they were off Sondervig. Later on, after the extension "of the English mine area, they generally proceed farther north, until off Hirtshals, Gabriele D'Annunzio.
