The Canadian House of Commons on Monday passed the proposed aid by way of loan to the Canadian Northern Railway of $15 000, 000. Some opposi- tion was developed upon the second reading of the Government’s bill to ac- quire three small railways near the city of Quebec, one of them being the Quebec and Saguenay projected some years ago by Sir Rodolphe Forget, and partially constructed. Work, however, had been suspended since the fall of 1911. A British official communication is- sued Sunday night concerning the situation along the Tigris follows: “Gen. Lake reports that on the 19th the enemy vacated the Bethaiessa ad- vanced position on the right bank of the Tigris. Gen. Gorringe, following up the enemy, attacked and carried the Dujailam redoubt. The enemy is still holding the Sannaiyat position on the left bank of the river. A force of Russian cavalry has joined Gen. Gorrlnge after a bold and adventurous Major-Gen.

Canada’s Great War Vote Features Session Just Closzd Government Bill is Opposedâ€"Other Railway Aid Approved British Headquarters in France re- ported on Friday: It develops thatethe ,action of the battalions of the LOYaI North Lancashires and the Lancashirq {Fusiliers on the 15th was singularly brillian,t and gained a strategic point, the crest of the Vimy ridge, which means the command of the plain of Lens. Since the British took over this section from the French the Ger- mans had been holding stubbornly the vantage of the higher ground and in- flicting heavy casualties on the British. After a successful explosion of mines just after dark the Lancashires, who are made up largely of cotton oper- atives from Manchester, rushed from their trenches to the lips of the crat- ers. Every detail in the program of the operation, from the putting of machine guns out of action. bringing up sandbags with which to build new breastworks and defending the posi~ tion by means of bombs, was carried out successfully Morning found the Lancashires thoroughly entrenched against a retalia tory German bombard- ment, and had connected their olc‘. line by communicating trenches six feet deep. Slight casualties were the cost of the night’s success. The value is judged by the 1'2» ct that the Lanca- shires are _:.0 le..ger on the down side of the 31036 wi: 11 the Germans above them.

' Petrograd reported Saturday: The Russian force in Persia, which during ,the past ten days has completed the arduous task of traversing the moun- tain district separating it from the Tuna-Persian frontier, driving the Turks upon their strongly-fortified base of Khanikin, now stands at the very threshold of Mesopotamia. “The latest peace overtures, said to be of German origin, while not as Insolent and impossible as previous statements on the same subject, cer- tainly do not yet otter a basis for negotiations,” said Lord Robert Cecil, Minister of War Trade, in discussing the latest reputed German peace terms on Saturday. A despatch from Milan to Lloyds News says that the two chief secret bases of Austro-Hungarian submarines 1n the Southern Mediterranean have been definitely destroyed as a sequel to the Italian. occupation of Marga, Moreza and Portio Bardta, between financial and Egypt. The British official statement on the western campaign reads: “Yesterday (Saturday) our aeroplanes had several successful encounters. An Aviatik on fire fell into some trees near Ahimfor Wood, in the enemy’s lines, one of its occupants being seen to fallout. An- other hostile machine tell in flames near Contalmaison, also in the enemy's lines, after an encounter with one of our scouts. A third crashed to earth in our lines near Maricourt. One of our aeroplanes tell in the enemy's linen. Petrograd despatches on Monday said: The Russian forces near Erzing- an, an important military centre 100 miles West of Erzerum, in a battle with the Turks captured 30 officers and 365 men. The Russian left wing also gained a victory over the Turks and captured prisoners and loot, in- cluding 2,000 rifles. On the following day the Turks, having concentrated in considerable forces, assumed the of- fensive, and after an all-day fight compelled the Russian advance guards to retire in some places. In the direction of Mosul the Russian troops in Mesopotamia have occupied the Rowanduz region, where they defeat- ed enemy detachments and captured three guns. The most significant pronouncement made by President l’oincz'rrc since the beginning of the war was uttered by him Sunday at Nancy. leplying to the reference to peace proposals con- tained in the Kaiser’s reply to the American ultimatum, President Poin- care said: “The Central Empires, affrighted by the indignation and hat- red which they have aroused among human kind. are to-day attempting to make the world believe that the allies alone are responsible for the prolong- ation of hostilities. Neither directly nor indirectly have our enemies of- fered us terms of peace. But we do not want them to offer us peace; we want them to ask us for peace. We do not want a peace that will leave Imperial Germany the mistress to be- gin another war and hang as an eter- nal menace over Europe. So long as this peace is not assured to us and so long as our enemies will not admit they are defeated we shall not cease fighting.” v Belast despatches on Monday said: Stubborn disinclination to accept any- thing in the way of a government which might imply the future subjec- tion of Ulster to home rule was evi- dent to day on the occasion of Pre- mier Asouith’ s visit to Belfast, which lasted only a few hours. So far as can be learr ed the Premier’s confer- ence with a large body of represen- tative Ulstermen was disappointing. It is understood that the question of the general disarrz ament of forces in Ireland not authorized by the govern- ment was discussed, and .the result was unsatisfactory. Sir Edward Car- son’s telegram to the Ulster Unionist The fight for Hill No. 304, seven miles northwest of Verdun, goes on with undiminished intensity. Two fresh German divisions have been brought into action by the Crown Prince, who seems to be making a supreme effort to capture this domin- ating eminence. These new divisions made a massed attack Friday night on the French positions on Hill No. 304 and in the Avocourt Woods, which run southwest from Hill No. 287. The German effort was to recapture the redoubt on the northeastern slope of Hill No. 304. which the French took Thursday. The effort railed. The Ger- mans did capture certain works south of Hill 287. This fierce German at- tack was preceded by a terrific bom- bardment by heavy-calibre guns, which stands as the most formidable artil- lery action so far in the war. It lasted only ten hours but used 1,500 guns. Wounded survivors in Paris hospitals- toâ€"day asserted that never yet was a. German attack prepared with such detailed method and such an accumu- lation of material. German prisoners said they had rehearsed at the Crown. Prince’s heacMuarters for two days. council, to the effect that he had no knowledge of r unors respecting the government of Ireland, did not bring about an alleviation of the situation.
