ll THE worms MARY Russians Death ‘Trap Searched for Other Possible Victims. ' despatch from London, Eng, says: No other bodies have been discovered by the police and fire- men woh searched the ruins of the house in Stcpuey which was burned down on Tuesday during the battle between the police and firemen and supposed Terrorists. The police found two Mauser revol- vers and a number of cartridge boxes in the debris. ‘ The coroner of the Stcpney (lis- trict states officially that only two bodies have been found in the ruins. All that was found of one of the bodies is contained in la handker- chief. . - . -. There was almost as: much ex- citement in the East-end on Wed- nesday as there was during the siege of the Russians’ death trap. Great crowds pushed against the police lines, striving vainly to get close to the ruins of the house and sec for themselves when the fire~ men and police found any gruesome traces of the dead defenders. In addition to keeping the crowds away the police had to clear the streets for trafiic, and the two tasks kept them on the jump. It is believed that the house which the Russians made their for- tress, was set on fire by them when they found that the ammunition supply was running low and that their capture was inevitable. After the flames had broken out fiercely there was a lull in the firing for a few moments and then two shots were heard. It may have been that the. Anarchists reserved their last two bullets for themselves. The story which was circulated Tuesday that the house had been fired by the order of Home Secretary Chur- chill is positively dcnied by the au- thorities. , In the search for the Russians particular care had been exercised to discover any receptacle which might contain papers throwing light on the plans of the gang. If any such existed they were either to- tally destroyed with the house or were burned by the Anarchists dur- ing the siege. W HARD TO GET SUPPLIES. ...__. Section on Transcontinental Most Difficult. A despatch from Ottawa says: The hardest section of construction in the eastern section of the Trans- continental Railway is at the head- waters of the Gatineau River, ac- cording to a statement made on Wednesday night by Mr. Gordon Grant, chief engineer. The actual construction may not be any hard- er than the rest, but the section, number 13, is the hardest to get at. As a consequence the work is retarded. It is very difficult to get in supplies, and this section will be the last finished. By the end of 1912, with the ex- ception of this stretch of 100 miles, rails will be laid accorfding to Mr. Grant’s estimate. The following year will be taken up in ballasting and finishing up and the line will be ready. -â€"-â€"-â€"-vs [0 LASHES FOR WIFE BEATER. .._â€"_â€" Edward Garrison Sentenced at Bellcvillc.

Montreal Citizens and Council Failed to Give Support. A despatch from Montreal, says: The “week of Winter sports” it was proposed to hold here in Feb- ruary was called off at a meeting of the committee on Thursday morn- ing. The reasons given are that ‘ while the railways finally consented to help the plan along, they took too long to make up their minds, while the City Council refused to contribute and citizens were back- ward in coming forward with finan- cial assistance. ___.__â€"v14._.____..
