INVITE MARSHAL FOCH TO ROYAL MILITARY COLLEGE French Military Strategist Be Asked Here. In connection with the approaching visit ofsMarshal Foch to the United | States, it is suggested that this dis- tinguished soldier be invited to spect the Royal Mlitary College Canada. There is.po doubt that the marshal would wel®yme the oppor- tunity of visiting the institution which furnished so many splendid officers to the'Canadian corps, and it is felt that his visit would prove a | wonderftil incentive and inspiration to the gentlemen cadets, It would be a happy incident and peculiarly gratifying to the gallant marshal if he could not only inspec: them, but be entertained by them at a concert on similar lines to the*Soi- ree Francaise" which was 80 success- fully staged in the Sir Arthur Currie HT last spring. Apart from the Royal Military Collegg of Canada, however, King- ston has much to offer in the way of historic connections with old France which would be of Interest to Mar- shal Foch. We remember with prid that gallant old Froutepac was hy one who, in 1673, brought his flotilla of canoes round Fort Frederick pen- insula and founded what later be- came the Limestone city; that the Chevalier L.a Salle occupied Fort Frontenac and that for many years the vicinity of Kingston teemed with pioneers of France, and that the county jis replete with associations of our French Allies which would be a source of pleasure to this distinguish- ed soldier, There is no doubt that the corpor- ation of the city, Queen's University, the Board of Trade, the Royal Mili- tary, College and the various clubs and organizations of Kingston would combine in tendering the Marshal of France a fitting reception, and with ministers representing "the county in the Dominion parlig- ment; no difficulty should be expers fenced in bringing the wishes of the community in a fitting manner to the anthorities. All that is needed to accomplish this happy end Is immediate action on the part of the prominent eitizens of tho city, and it is hoped that, now the suggestion has been put forward it. may be pushed forward to a suc- cessful conclusion.

Oct. 15.--Tossed about Lake Ontario with the waves | rolling 30 feet high, for two days, in a small sailing craft, and expecting | to be sent to the bottom of the lake | any minute, Gus Erickson, aged 36, arrived. in Oswego port.

New York, Oct. 15.--There will be coal enough for all this winter de- spite a long continued slump in mine information gathered by the United Press from every section of the country showed to-day. If the raflroad strike takes effect October 30th there may be a short- but dealers in { most cities report a stock to carry | them through the winter, Kansas and neighboring states re- port the lowest commercial stocks due to the strike called by Alexander | Howat, president of the Kansas min- ies in defiance of the orders of the | United Mine Workers. A reserve can be quickly built up, however, if the srtike is settled, dealers say. Other facts disclosed by the United Press survey are: ® That despite the fall in the price of many commodities, coal remains about the same price as last year. This is partly because the consumers are awaiting a fall in freight rates, and most householders delayed lay- jing in winter stocks, until the recent | cold snap caused a rush in buying. On the basis of the present condi- tions, government officials at Wash- ington, where the geological survey gathers weekly statistics on coal pro- duction, do not expect any winter shortage. The total production of soft coal for 1921, is estimated at 391,780,000 tons as compared with 556,420,000 tons last year. Part of this falling off is explained by slack business conditions and partly by the falling off in the export trade. Government figures also show that many miners are out of work and railroad coal carrying equipment is idle. It is. believed therefor that pro- duction could be speeded up quick- ly. Most sections of the country re- ported slack buying until a few days ago, a good supply in the hands ot dealers and only slightly lower pric- | es. + In the east, cities such as New York, Philadelphia, Wilmington, Del., Albany, N.Y, and others report stocks at normal or above with slack buying and prices about the same as last year. Pennsylvanja, in the heart of the coal district, reports lowest prices with no fear of shortage under any circumstances. Pittsburgh is pratical- ly the only city reporting domestic consumers stocked for the winter. In Chicago, coal prices are $4 a ton less than last year but only a 30 or 45 day supply is on hand. Howev- er, Chicago is close to the Illinois mine fields. $5,000 In Hockey Sticks " Destroyed in Big Fire. pe Preston, Oct. 15.--The plant of E. B.

The South® African government was recently strongly urged to ren- der assistance, but was unable to accept the various suggestions made for remedying the position. ' Now it is proposed, with the approval of the banks, that the magistrates in the affected districts should appoint vigilance committees, who shal] en- deavor to persuade creditors pressing for payment, to grant debtor farmers extension of time in which to dis- charge their Habilities, The committees are only to inter- vene in cases where payment or, ju- dicial execution would inflict irre- mediable loss on the producers. Should intervention fail, the case is to be referred to the government for further action.

IS FOUND GUILTY OF. . - MURDERING PRIEST Man Claimed Reward for Finding Body and Was Arrested. Redwood City, Calif.,, Oct. 15.-- William A. Hightower was found guilty yesterday of first degree mur- der with recommendation of life im- prisonment, by the jury in the case in which he was charged with the murder of Father Patrick E. Heslin of Colma, California. Father Heslin accompanied a muf- fled stranger the night of August 2nd from the parish house at Colma, tak- ing with him the Sacrament to administer to a supposedly dying man. The next day a letter demanding $6,500 ransom was received at St. Mary's Cathedral in San Francisco, and on the night of August 10th. 'Hightower appeared at Archbishop Edward J. Hanna's residence in San Francisco, asking for the $8,000 re- ward offered for the recovery of Father Heslin, alive or dead, saying he had a clue to the missing priest's whereabouts. He led a party of police and news- papermen to a'sandy cliff at Salada Beach, six miles from Colma, where the priest's body, with the head crushed in and two bullet holes In the body, was found in a shallow grave, Hightower said his clue came from the story of an outcast woman, Dolly Mason, that a drunken foreigner had told her of "something valuable" buried pear a sign of a man frying flapjacks. The priest's housekeeper identified Hightower as the man who called for Father Heslin and an expert testi- fled that Hightower's was the hand- writing on the ransom letter. CANNED 'GOODS UP.

' Labor troubles in South Wales NOT T0 RUN Has Dropped Out As the U. F idate i 0. Candidate in Fron- SN 3 tenac. The persistent rumor during the rast few days that John A Kennedy, Tichborne, ohosen by the U.F.O. of Frontenac as their candidate to op- pose Hon. Dr. J. W. Edwards in fed- eral election, would not run, proves to be true. Mr. Kennedy has intim- ated that he will not be a candidata. His reason for retiring from the con- test is said to be of a personal nat- ure. Mr, Kennedy was chosen as U.F.0, candidate on the bth of October at a big meeting held in the court bouse. He then accepted the nomi- natiop and prepared for the contest, Afterwards he was met with family objections to his entering an election fight, and he decided to retire as soon as possible in order to give the U.F.0. a chance to select another standard-bearer. i Leaders of the U.F.0. are unable to say who his successor will be. Mr. Keénnedy fairly swept the convention. His nearest competitor was R. Ax Hamilon, Godfrey, also a north man Mr. Haniilton has intimated to friends that he does not want the nomination, in fact he wouM not accept it now. In case he cannot be induced to be the U.F.0. standard- bearer, the candidate would likely be chosen from one of the south Frontenac leaders, chief of whom are R..J. Vair, J. L. F, Sproule, R. J. Bushell. The retirement of Mr. Kennedy bas caused quite a stir in U.F.O. cir- cles, as the farmers thought they had a man who could give Dry Edwards a batile that would land their candi- dae in a seat in the house of com- mons. They chose a Man from the north in. order to try and split the doctor's solid vote out there. Now the conditions are much changed. ALL.ITS ELEVATORS QLUTTED WITH GRAIN '| Stoppage Of Buying by Europe Causes Oongestion at Montreal. Montreal, Oct, 156. -Owing to te dearth of ocean tonnage and a fall ing grain market, there is now acts grain congestion in the Montreal har- bor elevators which promises to be the most serious ever exrerierted in this port. Number 2 elevator and the Grand Trunk eleyator have al- ready suspended all operations, be- ing filled to capacity. Twenty-two grain boats from the Great Lakes are lying in the harbor with full holds, but the elevators tre helpless ano cannot recelve any further shiv- ments. To make matters worse, oe lake boats are due here. shortly. Roughly speaking there are thirteen hundred car loads of gfain waiting for the Grand Trunk elevator, and about two thousand for the har"Hor eleyators, whi] between Montreal and Gecrgian Bay poris, approxim- ately 30,000,000 bushels are eith-r in transit or stored. The main cause of this existing acute congestis:, which is causing no little apprehen- sion, as there appears to be no im- mediate solution in sight, is the fact that Europe has stopped 'buying, with the hesult that tramp steamers no longer come h»vo. The European demand has fallen off, causing a re- duction in corn and grain prices. There will be very little buying any- where, it is sald, until prices have descended to a new low lével and have become stabilized, Small Building Lots Forbidden in Oshawa. Oshawa, .
