S oy, Dec. §.--A deluge of ap- pea om ridings throughout west- ern Ontario for a personal visit from Premier Meighen indicates the extent h panic is spreading in the ment camp. In response to.an nt 8. 0. 8. from Windsor, Mr. Meighen Saturday consented to visit that -city on Monday night where he will fire the last shot in his locker. Meetings at Wallaceburg and Chat- ham on Monday afternoon and even- ing respectively, have already been added to his {tinerary which was pre- viously to have ended at Petrolia Saturday. It 'has been a strenuous campaig for Mr. Meighen, who has been on the stump continuously for ten weeks jand it was only with extreme reluct- ance, after the urgency of the situa- tion in North Essex ry im- pressed on him, that he consented to extend his tour to Windsor. Mr, Meighen brought needed rein- forcements' with him when he I&d a forlorn hope into the riding of West Middlesex. The reinforcements con- slsted of Senator Gideon Robertson, minister of labor, and "that man O'Connor." West Middlesex Conser- vatives are frankly despondent and i the. return of Duncan Ross, Liberal | ! candidate, is virtually conceded. Mr. Ross, who is. a son of the late Sir George Ross, former premier of On- | |tario, has held the constituency since 11911 and is a popular figure through- | out the riding. J. D. Drummond, Progressive candidate, {s also putting up a strong campaign and George Flliott, the Conservative standard bearer, is expected to finish a poor third The panic extends also to East | Middlesex and to the city of London.

Brock Street Incident, Between 9 and 10 o'clock, on Sat- | urday night, a report was recelved by the police, to the effect that two men, acting in a very suspicious man- ner had Leen noticed running into | | the passageway . alongside Cooke's {church, on Brock street.

On this occasion, the women said they had no money and ordered the men away, and they-left without causing any trouble, The City is Stirred.
