"I don't want to load myself up with a murder trial," said his lord- ship, "but, of course, if it is neces- sary, 'I will take it." E.

Montreal, Jan. 25.--1In dismissing the jury which had heard the evid- {ence in the case of Raoul Delormo, the wealthy student, who was murd- ered a few weeks ago and in adjourn- ing the case sine die to allow the po- lice longer time to investigate, Cor- oner McMahon spoke as follows: "We have searched the home ot Father Delorme, the boy's halt-broth- er, and not a tgace of blood was found. The stains on the automobile cushion from Father Delorme's car may be human blood, but the medical analysis is not yet completed. Neigh- bors of Father Delorme heard the engine of his car running. We are led to the belief that the machine entered or left the garage, but that is not positive. If we really find fresh blood in he car we will have strong circumstantial evidence. I think wa should return some time, as soon es any evidence we may gather is ro- ceived. In conclusion, I might ask that citizens cease writing anony- mous letters to the authorities, charging 'he arrest of this or that person mentioned in the case." One of the interesting pieces of evi- dence was thet given by Detective Lajoie. He had been describing arti- cles he found in his investigations.

Feathers whica I believe were similar to those we found in Father Delorme's car, Tas quilt was wrapped around the vie- tim's bead, immediately beneath the young man's overcoat which had been drawn up and over a portion of his head and fastened with pins.

GIVEN ONLY THEIR SHARE Ontario Education Depart- ment Issues Statement on Separate Schools. 25.--The Ontario department of education yesterday jafternoon issued a statement with reference to recent complaints as to apparent inequalities of grants be- {tween certain public schools and rural separate schools in the same localities. It is pointed out that this is due to the working of the school law and not to any departure in pol- (icy. The present government has {not modified the arrangemen's un- {der which separate schools are estab- lished and supported. It is declared that the separate schools did not receive a dollar more than they were entitled to under the act and the regulations which have been in force since 1914. The statement is in the following terms: "The regulations for apportioning the legislative grants to the rural public and separate schools are sim- ilar in every respect, the following basis being used: 1. The assessment of the school | section, 2, The annual salaries paid the teachers. ., 3. The grade of the certificate held and the length of the teacher's | teaching experience. 4. dation of the school. BA graded 'fixed grant" where | the section assessment is less than {$50,000, Toronto, Jan. to -- No Modifications. "There has been no recent change in the law or regulation affecting grants to separate . schools. The | present governnient has not modi- fied in the slightest degree the ar- rangements under which separata schools are established and support- ed, Complaint has recently been made of the apparent inequality of |grants between certain rural public | schools and rural separate schools in the same locality, This is due to tho working of the school law and noi to any departure in policy. In order to understand the situation it is ne- Cessary to understandwithe school law. "By the act of 1863 the Separate schools have a right to their share of all grants voted by the Legislature in support of elementary schools. The division between the two sets of schools to be made on the basis of average attendance of pupils. This is the practice. as laid down in the act and followed in regard to all the educational votes of the legislature in support of elementary education. |The original provision is in the Sep- arate Schools Act of 1863 and the methods to be followed are outlined in the Department of Education Act of 1914. The division of grants is carried out under these legal provisions and, therefore, out of each vote so much |is set aside for public schools and so much for separate schools." "The policy of the department as outlined in the regulations is to pay the grants to rural schools on cer- tain 'basis, namely: On the salaries paid to teachers, on the accommoda- tions equipment and pn certificates. The same regulations are applied to Public schools as to Separate schools. In 1921 the grants apportioned un- der the regulations to the rural pub- lic schools not only wholly exhaust- ed the share of the total legislative vote allotted to these schools on av- erage attendance but so greatly ex- ceeded. the amount that in order to pay In full the grants it was netes- sary to obtain by treasury board or- der the sum of $555,000 to supple- ment the legislative vote, This ad- ditional sum had also to be distrib= uted between the public and separate schools on the basis set forth above." Distributed Pro Rata. "The apportionment made in ac- cordance with the regulations to the separate schools did not absorb the whole of their share of the legisla- tive vote and a surplus was accord- ingly distributed amgngst them pro rata. It, therefore, 'any public school secured less than the neigh- boring separate school amd provid- ing both schools belong to the same group of section assessments and they employ the same number of teachers the difference would be due to either or both of the following causes: (1) That the public school did not pay as high salaries, nor were their teachers as highly qualified as those of the separate school. (2) That the grants apportioned under the regulation absorbed the whole of public school share of the vote and no Sutpiis remained for pro rata distribution while the separ- ate school (as in 1921) had a sufm- cient balance on hand to permit of this being done. "The .legislative grant to rural schools in 1921 was $1,855,000. Of this separate school share was §140.- 509. The average attendance in rural public schools was 120,336, and the average attendance in rural separate schools was 11,108." | "The separate schools were thus {entitled in round figures to about |one-twelfth of the whole legislative !vote of $1,655,000 which 's, and will be seen at a glance, the amount they |actually received. In other words {a dollar more than they were en- titled to under the act and the ragu- lations which have been :n force since 1924."

Mr. Elliott's Address, In rising to accept, Mr. Elliott Bald: "At this moment I want to thank you for nominating me as your candiiate in the by-election. I ag fume that you have selected one have ing a fighting chance of election, accept the nomination so enthusiag- tically tendered to me this evening. When the dominion election protest is over, you wiil have Mr, Campbeil to represent you at Ottawa and it would be the proper thing to have a representative at Toronto in the ine terest of this good old city. 'There should be co-operation in all matters There are hund- reds of citizens who would have vot- ed for Mr. Campbell had they known that the Liberal party was going- to eweep the country as it dil. and they are all with us now.

Dr. Volume, vice-president of the | Young Liberals Club, in seconding the nomination said: 'If any man de- | serves recognition by reason of hif| talents'and his long record of splendid service that man is R, F.

It repre, s~nts but one-third of the electorate and has not a majority inthe legisla- ture, There must be a change and it will be one of the old parties. The Liberals should endeavor to be in a position to assume power. The record of the Ontario Conservallve party and of its leader, Hon. G. H. Ferguson prevents it coming back into power for many years, for while in office millions of dollars were lost to the people of this province and the re- sources of the province squandered emong its friends, The people of this city will surely not elect a sup- porter of that party at this time be- cause of he infamous conduct disclos- ed."

"He is a nian who is cap- able of handling himself and 'he cause he represents in an able man ner, and he is the type of man we 1 have known him many years and worked with htm in different spheres, and always held him in the highest respect and con fidence. I cannot say that of Mr, Nickle, and I would rather back a man like Mr. Elliott whe Is foyr square. That is something that is worth while." (Applause.) ; { Nickle's Instability. Mr. Sullivan gave an eloquent ad- dress 'hat was full of 'humor, His references to the instability of W.

'He boasted of hl§ independence, and I will call him & self-made man, and he is going to remain a self-made man. Self-inter. est was always the determining faa- tor. Mr. Nickle's object in entering this by-election is '0 oust Mr. Fergu- son. He tried to oust Sir Robert Borden at Ottawa, and falling, Be re- signed. If he falls to oust Mr. Fer guson he will resign again, and af'er resigning the third time he will be square, (Laughter.) Having learn- od his political princlples at the knee of Sir John A.

Mr. Nickle has been called the size of a in the last election. Mr. Elliott is no quitter, and our 'opponents cann:t say that about their candidate, Mr. Nickle. Mr. Elliott will always be found behiud Liberal principies, no' kicking over the traces, but there all the time. "The people are not going to elect any man to follow the Conservative leader, who is not a man that any party should be proud of as there are many things coming to lght that ara not at all creditable to him, and I don't know how any man can stand behind him." : Mr. Campbeil told of $he great Li% eral victory in the last dominion elec- tion when the party swept the coun- try from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
