Who 18 Te | Paris Decrees Fur | For Every Costume Paris, Oct. 7.--% ur is going to be more popular this winter than ever before, and American lamb, dyed jade green, ducks' egg blue and plum color, monkey fur and sealskin will be the ones most worn, according to furriers and fashion experts here. | They declared that no dress would | be complete and stylish without fur trimming. Fur also will be used for | trimming hats and will be used as | trimming even for dressing gowns. White fox will ba more fashfonable than ejther blue or silver. fox. Mole- skin will be used for the less costly wraps. Meanwhile the price "of all kinds of fur is soaring, which means that this style WI not tend to make gowns and hats cheaper.

COAL CONTROL IS OPTIONAL Western Provinces Not so Vitally Interested As On- Ottawa, Oct. 7.--Regulations de- signed to control the fuel situation in view of a possible coal shortage dur- ing the winter months are under con- sideration by the Board of Railway commissioners. It is likely that they will be formally adopted and promul- gated within the next day or two. It is learned that the regulations will to a great extent follow the lines of those which proved effective dur- ing the shortages of recent winters. In one important particular, however, lations previously in force. In view of the fact that conditions as to fuel supply for the next six months vary a great deal in the dif- ferent provinces the new regulations will be made optional. A province may adopt them or not as the pro- vincial authorities decide. It neces- sarily follows that a larger measure of control will rest with the provin- ces. Action along these lines has been made necessary because some of the provinces do not see the necessity for the resumption of the control of fuel supplies so far as they are concerned This attitude, it is understood, ap- plies more particularly to the West- ern Provinces where the fuel situa- tion Is very much better than it wa this time last year. Production i the Alberta mines has been greater and the amount of coal shipped east- ward t) Saskatchewan and Manitoba As for Eastern Canada, it is stated hat the restriction on exports im- posed by the Railway Board some weeks ago is having a very favorable effect on supplies, while the import movement of both" anthracite and bituminous coal has been, all things considered, very favorable. It is admitted that the situation is | fairly acute in some districts, but this is largely due to local conditions. | There are more complaints from points in Ontario than elsewhere and ng is regarded as certain that the with the murder of John H.

ESKIMOS RETURN T0 THEIR PEOPLE Brethren Bipress Gratitude to Great White Chief For Leniency. Ottawa, Oct. 7.-- "Gratitude to the Great White Chief" for his leniency to their brethren who were brought out to face the white man's law was expressed by the Eskimo bands whe inhabit the region on the shores of Coronation Gulf when four natives, two of them found guilty of murder, were returned to their own people by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Staff-Seygt, Clay, R.C.M.P.,, who with Constable Cornelius and Broc- kie, returned four Eskimo prisoners to their friends in the North, states in a report to headquarters here that the natiy tr foktoon, one of the native villages, were anxious to show their appreciation of the white man's leniency, and asked the police to assure the authorities that they were good people, and were grateful for the white man's goodness to the Esk- imo. . Sergt. Clay tells of taking back Aluksak and Sinnisiak, the Eskimos who were tried at Edmonton for the murder of a Catholic priest and later returned to their own people, and also natives Komik and Kayugana, who were acquitted of murder charges after a prelaminary hearing at Fort McPhersow in January, 1919. Sinnisiak, during his brief journey out to civilization, managed to pick up enough of the English language to make himself useful as an inter-| preter, and in later reports Sergt. Clay mentions the Eskimo murderer as having proven himself so useful to | the police in their strange bands of natives that he was taken on the force as a special con- stable. CLAIMS NEWSPRINT PRICE UNJUSTIFIED Lord Beaverbrook Leads Campaign to Bring Down the Prices. London, Oct. 7. -- Lord Beaver- | brook is heading a campaign .to | bring down the price of paper His journal, the Daily Express, has a column article on the text, "The price of paper is falling." The Ex- press says: "We are well aware that in making such a statement people 'may think we are using our power as a public organ to start, by sug- gestion, a downward tendency that will 'prove 'benefioial to us as news- print purchasers." This suggestion it discredits by the anouncement that Lord Beaverbrook, besides being a controlling shareholder of the Daily Express, holds interests not only in Price Brothers Limited, "but in {other Canadian paper manufactur- {ing companies, far outweighing his requirements as a newspaper pur- chaser." The article adds: "The present price of paper is not warranted. There is too great a descrepancy be- tween the manufacturing cost and the selling price. Canadian timber areas alone are so vast that they can feed the world's hunger for news- print for an indefinite period." INDECENCY ON STAGE CONDEMNED BY ACTOR Lamented by Maurice Moscovitch. London, Oct. 7.--"Simply crude, ! almost brutal, in its appeal to sex- uality." Thus does Maurice Moscov- itch, actor, attack the American stage after a recent visit to America. "The outstanding feature is the growing indecency among the Ame- rican revues and allied forms of productions," "he said. '"'Surely, only a depraved taste would welcome, even tolerate, such displays of cho- rus girls appearing naked, with their legs daubed in various colors. The vogue is for bedroom plays, where salaciousness is most marked. "Prohibition helps to fill Amerl- can theaters because the men no lon- ger care to lounge in saloons. The mind craves excitement and conse- quently seeks an exaggerated sensa- tion wherever possible." ! Alexandra Sends Fruit By Air to Marie of Russia | London. Oct. 7.--Queen Mother Alexandra has just sent a hamper of fruit by aeroplane t> her sister, Empress Marie, of Russia, who is now in Copenhagen, thus demon- strating the growth of the aeroplane service across the channel, which is serving all classes of persons desir- ing quick transportation.

Paris, Oct. 7.--The French govern- ment has turned down the sugges- tion made by the German Foreign Minister, Dr. Simons, that a meeting | should take place between the two place suggested was town of Wiesbaden. Secrecy was asked, and the French declare that such secrecy would have been reported had not the Germans Shemselves disclosed the fact of the in tiations by allowing the publi- hoe. on of the erroneous assertion that M. Laurent, who arrived here yes- terday, had brought concrete Ger- man proposals with regard to repar- ations. According to the French version, the proposal never got further than a conversation between Simohs and | Laurent, and the object of publica- tion of the fact that it was made is to show other countries the friendli- ness of Germany and her willingness to meet France. The only proposals, it is stated, which M. Laurent has brought as a result of the conversations he has had with Simons are with regard to the re-establishment and furtherance of commercial relations, which France is as anxious as Germany to foster. In these there is no question of the reparations. The last thing the French want is any such meeting as proposed by Simons. Their argument is this: If the Germans have any proposals to make with regard to reparations, they should make them to the Repar- ations Commissions. As a sign of | good faith and. intention to fulfil the treaty terms, they should, instead of | proposing further conferences, begin making preparations for fulfilling | such financial clauses and agree- | ments as exist. This action is the | only preof of good-will France will accept. PETERBORO RECTOR GUEST OF HONOR Archdeacon J. C. Davidson is Tendered a Complimen= tary Banquet. Peterboro, Oct. 7.--Archdeacon J. C.

Rome, Oct. 6.--Scientists say they do not believe that a new volcano was created on Mount Pisanino, near Spezia, during the earthquakes which | began Sept. 7th and continued until Sept." 9th, tausing the loss of 500 lives. Tongues of flame and smoke or dust were seen to be emitted from what is popularly supposed to have been a new crater opened near the mountain top. Frank A. Perrett, the. American volcanologist for the Carnegie Insti- tution, who occupies a station at Mt. Vesuvius to observe its operations, has expressed to The Associated Press the oi™ion that no new vol- cano has been formed but that the earthquakes caused displacements of subterranean strata causing a fissure in the earth's crust and that gas es- caping therefrom was mistaken by onlookers as the opening of a new crater. The phenomenon, was not a new one. Mr. Perrett gaid the seismi- cal instruments showed a towering of the earth level in the earthquake district previous to the tremors. This had been observed on other occas- fons when earthquakes occurred. the The Ottawa Citiven says: "Thera is a strong probability that the coming session of parliament will sce considerable variation in the taxa- ition measures of the government. .)Gross earnings of the Canadian Na- tional Railways for the week ending Sept. 30th, were $3,291,757, an in- crease of $401,661 over the corres- ponding period last year.

Gov- ernment. St. John, N. B, Oct. 7.--The Liberal administration in the pros is some- what alarmed at the prospect of a Conservative-Farmer victory in the provincial elections next Saturday. At the most optimistic figuring, there is doubt of a majority over the two opposing parties in the contest. Sup- porters claim the party will elect 21 straight Liberals in the province. This would leave a Farmer-Conser- vative party with 27 seats. Since nomination day fewer people are predicting a straight Liberal vie- tory over the two opposing parties !and the two or three independents, one soldier and one labor man, in the running. Most of those running in any class but Liberals are op- posed tothe present government. In several ridings there are no Conservatives in the running, be- cause an agreement was reached by which they stayed out and gave their support te the Farmers. There are, in turn, ridings where the Farmers are missing, but they have in most cases endorsed the conservative nominees. The new legislature, it is claimed, will not have over twenty or twenty- one Liberals. It is likely to elect one independent of Conservative lean- ings. The majority will be Farmer Conservative. If this BAppend § there may be an attempt made b pre- sent powers to form a coalition ernment with the Farmers, but 1s not at all likely to succeed. There is more likelihood of the Liberals | being forced to quit and to Conserva- tives and the Farmers uniting te form a government, Compares Montreal To a Greedy Pig Brockville, Oct. 7.--Compar- ing Montreal, in the matter of its shipping facilities, to a pig that has both feet in the trough and does not want any other pig to get in, Mayor W. A. Lewis, at a meeting of the Board of Trade last night, attacked the attitude of that city regarding the proposed despening-af-the St. Lawrence, saying that Mont- real, by its selfishness and lack of foresight, would willingly sacrifice the interests of the rest of Canada. The board unani- mously favored the scheme and selected delegates to attend the international joint commis- sion's hearing at Kingston, FEARS FELT FOR 80,000 AT ADANA Armenians Believed Endan- gered by Gouraud With= drawing Troops. Adana, Turkey, Oct. 7.--The de- ciston of Gen. Gouraud, the French commander-in-chief in the east, to end the fighting between the French and Turks by withdrawing his troops beyond the River Dichinan, is arons- ing fears for the safety of 80,000 Ar- menian refugees at Adana. These have been notified that they will have an opportunity to leave, but many of them, although unarmed, have decided to remain. It ie feared by the Armenians that the Tarks who returned home dur- ing the summer fighting around Ad- ana, will seek to avenge their dead and disregard their promises to re- frain from further attacks. General Gouraud already has re-' called Governor-General Duffieux and' Colonel Bremont and appointed suo- cessors in whom the Armenians - that they have not the same ! dence of being able to comtrol situation. With reference to the reported! withdrawal of French troops from the Adana region, it was said at the Foreign Office in Paris today that the mission of General Gouraud's forces in Asia Minor wag to protect the Armenians was no indication that France was to leave the Armenians Ia the hands of the Turks. Recent re- ports from General Gouraud, it was asserted, contained nothing that could be taken to mean he was with- drawing. The Armenians in the ter- ritory occupied by the.French were receiving fullest protection.
