Immediately an angry cry was heard from the mob and an ' occasional missile was thrown at the passing soldiers. A hundred 'yards behind this first rank came a second rank of khaki-clad horsemen, said by the crowd to be members of the Strathcona Horse, and the Fort Garry Horse, but afterwards stated by Alder- man Gray to be Royal North-West Mounted policemen returned from the front, to whom had not been issued the well-known scarlet tunic.

Six Points Are Explained: Paris, June 22.--A protocol to be 'added to the peace treaty, explana- tory of the six points raised by the Germans, reads: ' 4 "Firstly--A * commission will be named by the allied and associated Government fo supervise the demoli- tion of the fortifications of Heligo- land in conformity with the treaty. This commission will be empowered to decide what part of the construé- tions protecting the coast from ero- sion should be preserved, and what part demolished. ¢ . "Secondly--The sums which Ger- many will have to refund to its citi- zens to indemnify them for interests they may be found to have in the railroads and mines, referred to in paragraph two, article 156, shall be placed to the credit of Germany on account of the sums due for repara- tion." The protocal refers to German pri- vate interests in railroads and mines in Shantung as distinct from German state interests.

The Chamber of Deputies had, by a vote of 59 to 78, rejected Premier Orlando's' motion in favor of dis- cussing the question of confidence, which related to the foreign policy of the Government, in secret session. FLEET SURRENDEREDRED AT SCAPA FLOW Opened Seacocks and All Big Ships, the Battleships and Battle- Cruisers, Excepting the Baden, Went to Bottom Flying German Flag at Masthead. London, June 22.--The German of- ficets and sailors forming the com- plements of the German ships interned at Scapa Flow sank most of their fleet to-day. All the big ships, e powers will be sent to the Ger. the Batsleships ud battle eruisers, ex and numerous smaller craft were sunk, while others went ashore in a half-sunken condi- tion, Eighteen destroyers were beached by tugs, four still are afloat, while the remainder went under. The wholesale sinking of the Ger- man ships, which came to Scapa Flow to surrender under tle terms of the armistice, was carefully arranged by the officers and crews. All explosives had been removed, and therefore the only means of destroying the fleet was by opening the seacocks.' The ships' went slowly down, with the German flag, which the crews had hoisted, showing at the mastheads. The crews, composed entirely of Germans, under the terms of the armistice, which did not permit of British guards aboard, took to the boats when the vessels began to set- tle. ~-While making for the shore the boats were challenged and called Some of them ignored the summons and were fired upon, a few casualties resulting. This stroke apparently was an en- tire surprise, and the first mews reached London through a correspon- dent who was informed by farmers in the neighborhood that they had seen the German ships sinking, with their flags aloft. Admiral Sir Cyprian Bridge, re- tired, former director of the Intelli- gence Department, interviewed by the Weekly Dispatch with regard to! the sinking, said: "It is a breach of the armistice, and therefore, almost tantamount to a new act of war, but at this junc- ture it appears to mean that the Germans intend to sign the peace treaty. It looks like a plan concert- ed in Berlin. Commander Kenworthy, M.P., told the Despatch he did not think the sinkings were carried out by order of the German Government, but were engineered by 8 few hot- heads sick of existence at Scapa Flow. * "The Admiralty or the Admiral in charge," he said, "cannot be blamed. Rather, the Armistice Commission is to be censured for not putting British crews aboard. But we are well rid of the ships, which were obsolete." - { No.. $0 1 ; No. 8 Nort J oat, 0.11%, a A 9% Ni hs See 1 [71%e¢, in a oba_ bai 3 ¢ 4 CW, $1.30%c i ~ Ontario osts--No. 3: white, 17 t 80c,, according to ts outside. vig Ont . wheat--N Winter, bes car lot, $2.14 to $2.20, No. 2 do, $2.11 to $2.19; No. 3 do, $2 jo 3x15 a b Shipping poin 8, according ©] e - el Ontario wheat--No, 1 Spring, $2.01 to $2.17; No. 2 do, $2.06 to $2.14) No, 8 do, $2.02 to $2.10, f.o.b. ships ping "points according to freights.
