London, July 2.--Repotts that the Imperial Conference is considering a tri-partite agreement the United States, Great Britain and Japan relative to the renewal of the Anglo-Japanese Treaty are given prominence by the Morning Post and other newspapers of this city Such an agreement, it is declared, a virtual triple entente for the Pac ifie would be established, and the opera- tion of the Anglo-Japanese Treaty would be confined to the Pacific Discussions between representa- tives of the three nations as well as those of the British cominions, are fore-shadowed, between Jy Welcome U.S. Co-operation, London, July 2.--The Japanese povernment, welcoming the co-opera- gion of America in a solution of the disarmament problem, has no de- sire {0 enter into any alliance with Great Britain the terms of which would impair friendly Japanese and American relations.

New York, July 2.--Canadian sol- dier patients who have been under treatment in military hospitals in the United States are gradually be- ing taken home to hospitals in their Own country, and before long all of sa veterans will have were a.

The arrangement under which former members of the Canadian forces were cared for in military hospitals in the United States, was a reciprocal arrangement between the Ottawa - and Washington govern- ments, arrived at for the convenience of the authorities in both countries. Men discharged from the army who found their war disabilities return were admitted to hospit:ls and look- ed after, whether they happened to be in their own country or the neigh- boring one. There w-re many na- tives of the United States in the Canadian army, and not a few Canad- ians in the United States forces, and disabled men in these categories are in many instances wards of the gov- ernment for which they served, while living in their own country since the war. The three remaining Canad- ian ex-soldiers at Fox Hills, for in- stance, are natives of the United States. While there have been no com- plaints by Canadian veterans of their treatme in (U.S... hospi- tals, , all manifdsted a keen de- sire to get back "home." St. John Betts, a Canadian resident here who has taken an active part .in looking after the interests of the Canadian war veterans in New York City, paid a visit recently to the Fox Hills hospital and in questioning some of the Canadian boys there dis- covered their reasons for desiring to return to the domimion. They felt themselves strangers in a strange land; they had no visitors; they could not. meet any of their former army pals; and there was always 'the inevitable note of antagonism be: tween veterans of different armies. ' Further they had a certain feeling of delicacy about receiving favors from organizations whose chief aim was to look after the U.S. boys.

"A certain amount of distrust with regard to Japanese immigration has been exhibited in some quarters, but there again it was possible to find a solution agreeable to all concerned.

'One of the complaints made by the' soldiers-patients was that they never had any visitors, This trouble was soon remedied when it was brought to the attention of the Can- ada Society of New York, and the Canadian Club of New York. The Canadian" Society at once organized a visiting committee which got into touch with the Canadians at Fox Hills and looked up Canadian pa- | tients in other hospitals about New York.

It notes reports that as a result of forgeries there are at least five tick- et holders for all the best seats anl remarks: --If each of the disputes is fought out on the spot, it will be the greatest fight on record. Interna'ional Credits Scheme London, July 2.--Sir Drummoad Drummond-Fraser, organizer of the International Credits Scheme of the League of Nations, is 'immensely pleased with the reception it has me: in Austria. He says he can see only one serious obstacle to the successful application of the scheme to all the countries now in finencial difficulties and that Is a psychological one. According to 'the census returns thé population of France has de- Creased by two millions and a quarter since 1911. In that year the total population was 38,468,813.

Jerusalem, June 2.-- (Correspond- | ence) --Sir Herbert Samuel, the high commissioner for Palestine, on the occasion of the King's birthday, ad- dressed a representative gathering here. In the course of Lis speech he expressed regret that harmony be- tween the devotees of different creeds, which he earnestly desired to promote, had not yetybeen attained. He declared that Great Britain would never impose on the Palestinian people a policy contrary to their re- ligion, politica and economic in- terests. Referring to immigration Sir Her- bert said it must be definitely recog- nized 'that conditions did not admit of mass immigration. Among new arrivals, he added, there had been a number tainted with the "'pernic- ious doctrines of Bolshevism." Those who were known to be Bolsheviki had been arrested and would be ex- pelled with the exception of those liable to punishment for complicity in the disturbances at Jaffa. Immi- gration had been suspended pending a review of the situation. Sir Herbert said he was anxious that the Palestinian people should be more closely associated in the administration. Great Britain, he assured his hearers, intended to make provision for the government of Pal- estine in an instrument which would be registered with the League of Na- tions, The interests of the non-Jew- sh ould: ~be Hot only safeguarded by the mandate itself bit likewise in the instrument referred to in whih the future constitution of the country would be defined. In conclusion Sir Herbert said: "I earnestly desire to see this land, the centre of sacred associations for hun- dreds of millions of men, inhabited by a people kindly and peaceable. Most earnestly do I desire to see it progressing in quietness and harm- ony toward a prosperous and noble future. Let the government and the people unite in their efforts for the sake of that ideal." |Two Girls Drowned Near Toronto on Friday Toronto, July 2.--The second double drowning fatality, of the sea- son occurred yesterday afternoon when two young women, Josephine Newbury, aged eighteen, and Marie Foster, aged eighteen, lost their lives in the Lake of Fisherman's Is- land. So far as police were able to ascertain, two 'boys in a canoe were the only eye-witnesses, consequently little is known as to how the tragedy actually occurred. > HEEB Pe rh ee A CAPTURE AT NAPANEE Chief of Police Recovers Stolen Limousine And Arrests the Thieves. 2 Napanee July 2.--A stolen Hud- son super-six limousine, valued at $6,000 and bearing a state of Maine license, No. 962E, was located in Napanee on Thursday through the vigilance of Chief of Police Barrett. men who were occupants to purchase a new tire. As they did not have suf- ficient funds, however, they were re- fused by Harold Andarson who con- ducts the garage. Becoming suspic- ious he notified the chief oi police who apprended the men. One gave his name as Robert Hannah, Water- bury, Maine, aged thirty-five, and the other as Earl Steaey, Albany, N.Y., aged twenty-seven. They cross- ed the border at St. Stephen, N.B., and were proceeding + to Toronto | where they said they were going to sell the car. At the Campbell House, Napanee, they registered under the DEMPSEY RUNNING AND CARPENTIER IN BOXING AT- TIT UDE. Thasandro rove into Anderson's garage and an effort was as ie bout ' s of Jack Nc.ris and George Edmonds, and also jumped their board bill. On Thursday morning 'Norris' came to get the car but chief of Police Fred W. Barrett was on the lookout. Norris turned and walked as far as the railroad cross- ing, where le retraced his steps and struck for the Belleville road. Chief Barrett then proceeded by auto and accosted the two strangers. When questioned they stated that they were looking for some money they had lost when they were obliged to change tires.

Pastor to See Fight = So He Can Tell Flock 2 New York, July 2.--There will be at least one clergyman at the Carpen- tier-Dempsey fight. But he goes not to praise Caesar but to bury him. The cleric is Rev. Dr. John Roach Straton, of Ncw York, veteran cam- paigner against Broadway cabarets. According to Dr. Straton, to-day's Is the supreme illustration of the world's reversion to paganism. He is going to have a ringside seat so that he can tell his flock just how awful tle fight was.

The front page of the cover of the first Annual bears the following title: "The First Annual of the Kingston Unit, Army and Navy Veterans in Canada, incorporated by Act of Do- minion Parliament. Honorary Pat- rons, Their Majesties the King* and Queen." Below is the year, 1919, and the seal of The Army and Navy Veterans in Canada. > The second Annual is the same, excepting that the year 1920 is sub- stituted for the year 1919, and om the front inside page we learn that it is edited by J. Gwallia Evans. On page 3 of the 1920 Annual, we have a list of the officers of the King- ston Unit; on page 5, a directory of the meeting of the Kingston Unit, and on page 7 an introduction head- ed "Our Second Annual." The open- ing paragraph of this introduction is as follows: "We take pardonable pride in presenting to our Unit and its friends this our Second Annyal The first met with general ap- proval anc our advertisers were 60 pleased with its asrtistic ap- 'pearance that we had no difi- culty whatever in securing a continuation of their patronage, and their names again appear in Mr. de Valera also conferred with Prof. John MacNeil, president of th Gaelic league, who was released wi Mr. Griffith.

The Army and Navy Veterans are a public body appealing to the pub- lic for charity and support. No pub- lic body has a right to withhold in- formation such as we ask for. A few 'years ago the Whig de- manded of the local commandant that he explain to the public where hie received the right to use the title Reverend, where he received the right to use the title Doctor of Medi- cine, where he received the right to use the title of Lieutenant-Colonel, and where he received the right to wear any of the numerous war medals that decorate his manly chest. The local commandant, Lieut.-Col. the Rev. Dr. J. G. Evans did not see fit to reply, but since our enquiry we notice that he has dropped his var- fous titles, has given up his faked de- corations, and has transferred his allegiance from the army and navy.

Despite the shouts of con- fidence from both camps, both prin- cipals are puzzled in the presence of the unknown. 'Despite the heavy betting odds in favor of the Ameri- can the issue is in doubt and wil re- main so until the knockout blow or the sounding of the last gong ends the most famous mystery in the sporting annals. Betting on the outcome of the fight in the financial district here was very light Yesterday. For some rea- son, presumably for the purpose of shortening the odds on Dempsey, fol- lowers of the American withdrew their support almost entirely. At the same time plenty of Carpentier money was offered through several brokerage houses, the Frenchman's supporters, however, demanding heavy odds. One of the wagers reported was on the proposition that Carpentier would not respond to the call of the sixth Money, which was said to come from the Dempsey faction, was freely offered on this phase of the fight and was accepted in moderate amounts by Carpentier's followers. The gates of the arena in Jersey City opened to the public at 8 a.m. and the firot preliminary bout will start at 1 p.m. sharp, according to an announcement by Tex Rickard. The principals in the championship bout have been instructed to enter the ring at 3 p.m., eastern daylight saving time. NAPANEE: CELEBRATED ON DOMINION DAY Decoration of Soldiers' Monu- | ment, Horse Racing and Baseball Games. Napanee, July 2»~The town wore a gala appearance, being suitably and In case the six preliminary bouts should occupy less time than antici- pated, an effort will be made to bring Dempsey and Carpentier into the ring immediately after the semi-final in order that there may be no tire- some wait for the spectators. It is expected that there will be a good-sized crowd of patrdns for the $5 seats on hand when the gates open, and for these occupants of the unreserved section the wait will be unusually long unless there is some early activity in the ring. All told, there will be about 8,000 $5 seats. The gloves which Dempsey and Carpentier will wear are reposing in a safe in the office of Tex Rickard. Those the French challenger will don are a trifle smaller than the pair made for Dempsey, but each glove weighed eight ounces when tested on the scales. Thousands of women in bright holiday attire will make the boxes and ringside seats blossom like a flower garden. The feminine at- tendance will be unique in boxing history. Preachers will be there abundance, including the tathous Rev, Dr. John Roach Straton, university professors, high brow philosophers, artists, sculptors, people who never dreamed of attending a prize fight before in their lives and who may never go again. Many explanations of the universal interest of the event have been put forward. Obviously its international flavor has set it apart and above past world championship contests (Continued on Page 20.)

New York, July 2.---Probably more newspaper correspondents than were employed on the batl.elelds of France during the world war will be on hand to report the Dempsey-Car- pentier encounter this afternoon. Ike Dorgan, who has charge of the press arrangements, said there would be 700 newspaper men at the ring- side, 200 of whom would be dictat« ing to telegraph operators while the bout is in progress, and the rémain- der encircling the aréna directly in front of the holders of $50 tickets. It will be the greatest army of fight chroniclers, or, indeed, chroniclers of any kind, ever assembled to "cover" a single event Reporters from many nationg will watch the battle. Seven writers from France will be on hand hoping that they may cable a flash that their countryman has become the world's heavyweight champion, England wil} be represented by 15 correspondents, and eight are here from Canada. Even Tokio will have special writers, as will Copenhagen, Manila, Havana, Buenos Aires and other foreign cities, One hundred telegraph wires be- gan buzzing edrily in the morning, for while the bout does not star' until 3 o'clock, news that fight fans will eagerly scan began to "break" around 8 o'clock.
