Ssvcral other speeches were made by aldermen present. Aid. Proulx, Aid Nault, Aid. Koblllard and Aid. Bum-bray all spoke on the question.

Superintendent Janln, replying for tno department, Bald he thought the ci edit for the work was divided among pcveral. Members of the council who had voted the funds and members of the Water Committee, and especially Chairman Clearihue, had all done their sham. He desired specially to thank ex-Mayor Ekers for the active interest he hud always shown in furthering the most Important project undertaken by the department In a generation. He also mentioned Mayor Payette, who had stood by the committee In providing all the funds they wanted, and only" regretted he was unable to be present to see for himself what had been done. As for the enlargement.

It was done because it was needed, and he felt cer tain it would supply the city with all the water wanted far many years. Chairman Clearihue remarked on that point that there was nothing to prevent the laying of another conduit when needed, of an equal size or larger than the one now being laid. The party went for some four miles along the works, and everywhere they found fcteam shovels and hundreds of men at work. The big rock cut, where the depth was found to be some thirty-five feet below the surface, was inspected. Blue shale to the depth of seme eight feet was found at the bottom, where pteam drills were at work preparing for dynamite blasting.

In' another cutting the rock bottom was discovered to be even of a greater depth. -The train wag run tip to the point where the old aqueduct had been widened to 140 feet some years ago, and which width will be, before the work la complete, maintained for the entire length of the aqueduct. It will be remembered that as soon as the conduit Is ready for use the plan adopted by the city requires the widening and depening of the present aqueduct. Among those present on the trip of Inspection were ex-Mayor Ekers, AM. Clearihue.

Workman Was Attacked and Had One of His Arms Broken by Assailants. Between five and six hundred C.P.R. strikers charged across the fields near the Angus yesterday afternoon toward a line of twenty street cars filled with workers and standing at the head of Davidson street. Before they had time to reach the cars, however, forty policemen, aided by C.P.R. special constables, and headed by Inspector Lamouche, encountered the rioters with their batons, broke up the crowd and scattered tha men In all directions.

Just before this a gang of strikers seized a worker who was walking outside the shop yards, beat him with their lists and broke one of his arms before he was rescued by the police. The victim was a Roumanian, who recently started working in tho shops as a laborer. When word of the trouble was telephoned to Central Police Station, general instructions were issued for all available policemen to- turn out of their stations and go to the Angus Shops. The policemen did not wait for the street cars, but patrol waggons were brought out and were driven at full speed to the scene. More than a hundred "extra policemen arrived at the shops half an hour after the summons was received and this exhibition of prompt service had a good effect In quelling further disorder.

On arriving, however, tho extra policemen found the encounter at an end, but the force of forty uniformed men, who had been on duty near the shops when the trouble broke out, were at work keeping the strikers scattered and not allowing them to collect in a- big crowd. After being once dispersed, the strikers were seen gathering in the bushes in the field near the shops. Inspector Lamouche sent Lieutenant Beauregard with twenty men to dislodge the crowd, which was done without difficulty. The trouble originally might not have assumed such serious aspects had It not been for the heavy cloud of smoke which enveloped the vacant lots near the shops and prevented the police and special constables from noticing that the strikers were collecting In such large numbers. It wag near Frontenac street that the strikers originally gathered, after which, partially hidden by the smoke, they advanced on the street cars at the head of Davidson street.

Inspector Lamouche, assisted by Captain Bellelleur, remained on directing the police until late last night, but once the workers had made their way safely to their homes thero seemed to be no motive for further trouble. On Tuesday night, another workman was assaulted near the shops by Btrikers, but the trouble yesterday afternoon was the most serious since the commencement of the strike. What makes the work of tho policemen and special constables, who are kept on duty particularly difficult, Is the distance that has to be patrolled and the many points at which men can collect In the adjoining vacant lots. OPPORTUNITIES. An Interesting Booklet Issued by the Canadian Pacific Railway, The Canadian Pacific Railway has Issued, through Mr.

L. O. Armstrong, Industrial agent of the road, a pamph let entitled "Some Resources and Open ings." It is mainly intended for distribution outside of Canada, but the great amount of Information contained in the little volume will prove equally Interesting and valuable to Canadians In search of new fields in which to locate. The pamphlet deals with places along the lines of the company, the wants of each place and Its natural resources being succinctly described. Almost every branch of In dustry Is represented.

The list, at that, does not pretend to be exhaus tive, and Mr. Armstrong will be pleased to receive suggestions and corrections. New opportunities for the employment of capital are constantly arising, and these will, presumably, be added as further additions are made. Appended is a really valuable list of the undeveloped water powers of the country, given by districts, a list long enough to cause surprise and awaken the interest of manufacturers looking for suitable locations. The little booklet should do a great amount of good.

A copy will be sent free on applica tion ta Mr. Armstrong, whose address Is the Windsor Station, this city. COLLIDED IN FOG. Fifty Persons Injured in Collision in Philadelphia. Philadelphia, September 23.

Foaf was responsible today for a head-on collision between two cars on the Southwest Traction 'Company's line between this city and Chester, In which about fifty persons were injured, several probably fatally. A car leaving Philadelphia with workmen employed by the Baldwin Locomotive Company at Its out-of-town plant, and known as the "Baldwin Flyer," was speeding along the single track with 72 men on board, when suddenly a car coming from Chester loomed up In the fog. Before brakes could be applied there was an awful crash. Men were hurled In every direction, and both cars were wrecked. Among the most seriously hurt were: Edward Smith, leg cut off and shock, may die; Wm.

Mullen, ribs crushed In, may die; Philip Hanagan, George A. Caffrey, Harry Potter and N. Poscovitch, hurt Internally. In addition a score or more are In various hospitals with broken legs and arms and other Injuries. Saratoga, N.T., September 23.

MAY BE FINISHED THIS YEAR. df a Total of 27,300 Feet, or Nearly Five Miles, 14,000 Feet Have Been Completed.

One of the busiest places In Montreal Is at the aqueduct worka In Point St. Charles, where hundreds of men are employed night and day in hurrying the construction of the water conduit which is to give Montreal for years to come, a plentiful supply of St. Lawience water. The members of the Water Committee went out there yesterday afternoon for another, inspection. What they found was tuat great progress had been made eince the inspection at the beginning of July, and Contractor McGovern informed the committee if he had two more months of fair weather he would take the backbone out of the job.

According to information given out by engineers emyloyed in the city, the conduit, when complete, will have a length of 27,300 feet, or about five miles. So far feet of condulting have been finished. The members of the committee, after making a tour on the special railway that has been constructed along the conduit, visited one of the shanties used by the men, where refreshments were served. Among those present were the two engineers who had approved of the plans, namely, Messrs. K.

Marceau, and J. Kennedy. Both of them complimented the city on the fact that the work was so far advanced. Aid. Clearihue said he was pleaded to have the consulting engineers present, for the reason they had been appointed to examine the plans prepared by Mr.

Janin, and were in a position to give an independent opln-Uonl Mr. Marceau, replying first, paid there were more costly ways of bringing a water supply to Montreal, but for the present the conduit decided on was the most acceptable. As regards the work, it was quite satisfactory. Mr. John Kennedy endorsed what had been said by Mr.

Marceau. It was a difficult problem, he remarked, to enlarge the aqueduct without interfering with the daily water supply, but that point had been overcome, and be was pleased to see the steady progress made. He congratulated the on the fact that water from the new aqueduct would. In all probability, be available this year. JSx-mayor Ekers, who was introduced as one of the prime movers In fitting Jthe work done, Bald he was glad he had done hl.s share In Improving the city water supply.

If the contract work were not completed on time Mr. McGovern had some reason for it; but be thought no one could deny that the work was going on now in an expeditious manner. He admitted he still had an interest In the enlargement of the water works, as he considered It one of the best Investments ever made by Montreal. Aid. Levesque in a few words referred to the satisfaction felt by all the aldermen present in listening to the remarks of the two consulting engineers.

They had approved of the plans, and were now well satisfied with the way they were being carried out. He also spoke of the pride all felt In the fact that the city had engineers of the capacity of Superintendent Janln and OFFICE WOKS 703 FRONJEJNAC ST TELEPHONES tON distance BELL EAST -370S BELL EAST BELL EAST -307O MCRCHANTS-20 I 8 P.

Twelve Cars of Coal Plunged Into Susuehanna River." Wilmington, September 23. Through the collapsing of a span of nearly 600 feet of tho Baltimore and Ohio Railroad bridge over the Susque? hai.na River at Havre de Grace, twelve loaded coai cars of the northbound freight train were carried down and the span was totally demolished. William Wilson, of Havre de Grace, a watchman for the American Bridge. Company, went down with the wreckage, and received injuries which may prove fatal. There were no casualr ties.

4 No reason could be learned by the railroad or bridge people as to the cause of the accident, although there are reports current that the bridge was tampered with, and that dynamifa had been found concealed in different parta of the structure. The section of the bridge which gave way was being repaired at the time, and this fact is thought to have been a measure responsible for the accident. As soon as the accident was repaired a wrecking train was sent from Wilmington, to the scene, and work was. Immediately started toward the recovery of the bodies, and also the cars and engine, but it will be some time" before the debris can be gotten out of the river. The train comprised 21 freight cars.

Immediately after the accident the railroad compony made arrangements with tho Pennsylvania Company to run trains over the latter's tracks, using the Jattcr company's tracks between Wilmington and Havre, de Grace, and as a result there was practically no Interruption to their through traffic Colonel Moodie President.

Eepuhlican Committee Has Only One-Tenth of Usual Sum. Democrats' Fund Smaller. New York, September 23. The Times says: It was learned yesterday on excellent authority that the total con tributions to this year campaign fund which has been received by the Republican National Committee when Its office closed on Saturday were within $300,000. It was also learned from the same excellent source that in previous presidential campaigns In the last sixteen years the Republican National Committee's total contributions have never fallen below $3,000,000 that is, ten times the sum received to date.

There are still six weeks of the campaign to run, and of course some further response to the appeal for con tributions may be expected, but tne party's expenses are going on all the time and the slimness of the responses so far Is causing not a little uneasiness among the party leaders. New York, September 23. cnairman Mack, of the Democratic National con vention, said today that if the same evidence was produced against Gov. Haskell, treasurer of the committee, as was produced against Senator Foraker, In connection with the Standard Oil Company, he would expect the treasurer to act as Senator Foraker did, but that no evidence of such character had been adduced up to the present time. The National chairman said he had no communica tion with Governor Haskeu or Mr.

Bryan with regard to the charges that had been made. Sneakine -of the report from Chi cago that the campaign fund of the Republican party, was about $300,000, Mr. Mack said that the funds in the Democratic treasury were less' than that. He said that no contributions had been received above $10,000, and that the convention would abide by the rule not to accept single amounts larger than that sum. BAHAMAS HUEEICAHE-SWEPT.
