CANNOT GIVE CHEAP RATE For Railway Excursions Out 'of Kingston, Say Officials. . GREENENT IN THE WAY Railways Abide By Regula- ton Adopted By i Passenger Association. The excursion rate discrimination against Kingston by the railways was the subject of telegraphic cor- seapondence between W. F. Nickle, K.C.,, M:P.P., chairman of the board of trustees of Queen's University and the railways on Tuesday and Wednesday. The crux of the matter i» an agreement between the differ- t rallways to abide by a regulation adopted by the Canadian Passengers Association, giving one fare and a third for excursions out of Toronto and Montreal, but only a fare and a half out of Kingston.

The French government has back- ed the suggestion of Lord Curzom, foreign minister of Britain, that Am- erica be asked to take part in the deliberations because the Lausanne pact will be a modification of the treaty of Sevres, which was drawn up at the end of the world war with American collaboration. Lord Cur- ed by the Turkish Nationalists for trial by special military tribunala, charged with high treason, accord- ing to advices received by American Tellef agencies here. It is the fear in wéll informed circles that these Greeks will be put to death in massed executions in groups of a hundred or more.
