Shanghnessy. ,Adespotch from Montreal says: Sir Thomas Shaug'hnessy, President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, in an interview on the financial sit-us.- tion. said: “The pause in the flow of money into Canada has been beneficial in that it has enforced on Canadians that, careful and economical hand- ling of money in business and in private affairs which has been the real secret-of Canada’s past pros- perity. ' “The flow of immigration into Canada. cannot cease, for it is due to economic conditions which show no signs of changing. Wages, the price of good land, and the oppor tunity for work, are all in favor of Canada, as compared with Great Britain and Europe. The United States, our former competitor for this immigration, is now inclined rather to restrict than encourage any further influx. The poorest laborer coming into a new country, such as Canada, is the incarnation of capital, for he brings with him the capacity to work and to transâ€" form some undevclOped natural _rc~ source into a thing that. can be used, and thus by his labor he crc~ ates wealth. “Canada, therefore, must wel- come the immigrant for many years to come, and must continue to pro- vide increased facilities of trans- portation, colonization and hous- ing. To provide such facilities the European capitalist and the inves- tor will, in my opinion, continue to furnish the money, for, owing to the propaganda carried on by the Dominion and the Provincial Govâ€" ernments and industrial bodies, for labor and for the profitable invest- ment. of capital. the opportunities in Canada. are thoroughly realized across the water, and it is only the temporary financial stringency, duc Rubbers and Over-Stockings in One.

A despatch from Epernay, France, says: Two military avia- tors were burned to death near this place on Wednesday. when the aeroplane in which they were flying dashed into a. tree and burst into flames. The men were burned be- yond recognition. The aeroplane met, with the mishap when the avia- tors trricd to make a landing about nine miles from this town.

A despatch from London says: In view of the prevalent impression in Britain and abroad that the British markets are flooded with goods “made in Germany” it. is interest- ing to note the statement- appended to a. bill regulating commercial rc- lations between the two countries just framed by the German Federal Council. The state-mentshows that Germany‘s trade with Britain and her colonies far exceeds her trade with any other country, and that Germany's imports from Britain exceeds her exports to Britain in ever-increasing degree. In 1909 the difference was $312,500,000; in 1910. £14,000,000; in 1911 nearly £16,500,- 000, and in 1918, £24,500,000.

He arrived 0:1) his figures by a. consideration of trade unionists now idle. He says 25,000 will be idle by Christmas. There are in Winnipeg ever thirteen thousand trade unionists. Over fifty per cent. of these are idle. These are mainly men skilled in the building trades. These men have helpers amounting to at least a. number equal with their own. That, makes nearly fourteen thousand. He estimetes that, conservatively speaking, there are three thousand five hundred other idle men in the cityâ€"clerks, office mcn, railroad construction men and laborers. Several Western cities are feed- ing their unemployed under muni- cipal organization, notable among these being Vancouver and Bran- don. The towns in Northern Sas- katchewan and Alberta, have passed the crisis by reason of the fact that many men have gone from them to the lumber camps of the country. .. K mum's CAN ENTER'CANADA. ___.

The, only grounds on which a Hindu may now be excluded are those of idiocy, disease, crime 011‘ mendicancy, merely grounds which apply against, British-born citizens entering Canadian Eastern ports. For instance, there is now nothing to prevent- ent-ire ship loads. of Hinâ€" (lus entering British Columbia, mud judging from the persistence with which they have for three years been pressing the question of their entry these shiploads may not be slow in taking advantage of the chance to come. ._.â€".;â€"-,I' NEW GUN FOR AIRSIIIP. Eleven Hits Out of Fohrtecn Shots at Altitude of 600 Feet. A de-spa’och from London says: The new automatic machine gun for air craft, the invention of Colonel Lewis, a retired United States army officer, was given exhaustive tests on Thursday at Bisley in the presence of a, distinguished gather- ing of British army officers and forâ€" eign military attaches. The new gun resembles a large rifle in ap- pearance, but if. has an outer jacket covering the barrel. It weighs only twenty-seven pounds. The action is totally automatic and the gun is capable of firing eight hundred rounds a minute. With the gun mounted on a.
