Local oon- sumers were under the shat there would be coal enough for thelr needs, and that the only {n- convenience noticeable would be Necessary purchase in small quan- titles at a time.

CHAMPION OF CLEMENCEAD Declares He Is Sick of the German Whine About Reparations. - Washington, D.C., Nov. 28. -- France and Clemenceau found an outspcken champion yesterday in Senator Myers of Montana. Senato: Myers declared that Clemenceau was right in saying that the United Stat- es should have entered the League of Nations and should do so now and ratify the triple-tight agreement un- der which Great Britain and the Un- ited States guaranteed France from invasion by Germany. France's fear | of another attack from Germany was Quite justified in Senator Myers' opin- fon, and unless other nations guar- entered her territorial integrity, France had no choice but to defend herself. He said he was sick of the German whine that they could not pay the reparations. If he had his way he would have the kaiser every day in a treadmill, instead of eating, dining and making merry. As the colored troops on the Rhine, Senator Myers pointed out that ten times the number of colored soldiers had been quartered for years on the people of his state. These colored soldiers on the Rhine, he said, had perpetrated none of the atrocities which German soldiers had perpetrat- ed in Belgium and France. He re- minded the senate that it was Ger- many, not France, which had sub- marined the Lusitania, and ' sunk numbers of American ships and kill- ed thousands of alien citizens, while professing to be at peace with the United States. ED ECCLES HAS BEEN LOST Little Hope Is Held Out For Safety of This Schooner. Up until Tuesday noon, nothing had been heard of the schooner Ka- tie Eccles, which was reported miss- ing Monday. Local marine men impression | hold very little hope for the safety of the schooner. The last seen of the Katie Eccles was when the cap- tain of the Simon Davis, which went ashore at Wampoos Island, caught sight of her during the heavy gale| Sunday evening. He stated that her boom was broken, and the boat ap- peared to be at the mercy . of the waves, On Tuesday morning, the Schuster Coal Company, Belleville, who owned the cargo of coal which the Katie Eccles was bringing from Oswego, stated that they had heard nothing about the schooner but they still held out hopes that Captain Mitchell, who was In command, was able to reach shelter and is waiting fr the wind to drop. There was a runior that the Katie Eccles was at the Main Ducks, but this report is not credited in King- sion. Mrs. Cole,. wite of Claude Cole, Cape Vincent, who owns the land at the Main Ducks, when call- ed by telephone, stated that she knew nothing about the missing schooner, and she did not think for one min- ute that the Katle Eccles was up at the island. There was a rumor surrent that the Eccles was seen Monday night ashore in McDonald's Cove dismast- ed.' An effort was made by the Brit- ish Whig to get in touch with the telephone at McDonald's Cove on Tuesday, but the nearest poin: reached was Milford. word had been received concerning the presence of the schooner Eccles at McDonald's Cove. - . / The Vessels Ashore.

The object of the suciety of ex-priests is "to group all married Catholic priests and those who desire to marry, to safeguard and defend their jus: rights--for themselves as well as for their wives and children--and their situations." At present any French Catholic priest who marries 1s unfrocked. PATRIOTIC FUND TO END, Permanent Cases Only Will Receive Continued Help.

The prime minister spoke of the relationship of the dominions to the mother country in connection with the discussion of the future relation- ship of the Irish Free State with reat Britain. He declared: "I say without hesitation that if this parliament were to.pass an act which attempted to limit the powers of the dominions according to statuts it would have a reaction which would go all through the dominions and would be one of the most dan- gerous things that could happen." of 1 (Special To The Whig) Edmonton, Alta., No. 28.--Bound for Kingston, Ontario, the stamping ground of the Eastern Canada rugby champions, the Edmonton Eskimos, boarded their private car at the C.

Final arrangements for the trip were completed late last night by manager Moe Lieberman, and all the local lads have to Jo for the next few days is to hold down their cushions. The task of starting a party of twenty- five on a trip like the present ono has its worries, and Moe was rushea off his feet yesterday. The only sal- vation for him is that he is bound for the scene of his school days, hav- Ing graduated from the Kingston Collegiate. The boys will not lack entertain- ment on their journey eastward, as a phonograph has been donated by a local company.

The city estimates hat it is thus losing 30,000,000 francs a year, To make up this loss the city now proposes to establish a tax on fur- nished apartments and hotels, which, i 1s estimated, will produce a high- er..yleld than the proposed tax on Visitors to Pars. It will also have the effect, it is believed, to check the increase of rentals on furnished apartments, which is said to have re- tarded the solution of the housing problem, EDMONTON RUGBY PLAYERS ON THEIR WAY TO KINGSTON Moe Lieberman, 2 Former Resident of King- ston, Is the Edmonton Manager.
