Gently. The medical examiner said that
he could not tell exactly what the cause
of death was until he had made thor
ollgh examination, and he gave orders
that the body be taken to Flynn's un-
dertaking rooms and kept there until
he had a chance to do so.
In the meanwhile Sergeant Cook i'm

police as Stella Brown, alias Rich,
Browns age is given as forty-eight
years. h.. ...

ters and said that he first saw the man
accompanied by a woman, who the po-
lice believe to have been his wife, on
George street at 1880 o'clock. He saw
them shortly after u o'clock, at which
time the man was rolling about on the
sidewalk. The woman helped him up
and bound a handkerchief on his head.
She then seated him in door way and
Schroeder went for the police. When
he came back the woman had disap-
peared.
It was learned by Sergeant Cook that
officer Dornnan was called to a Mr..
Brady's house on Congress avenue, two
doors from Rosenberg's store, at II
O'clock Mr.. Brady asked the officer to
put Brown and his wife out, as they
were fighting He said that his wife
was Browns sister. The officer went
there and made them get out.

King Peter to be Recognized.

washington, Nov. 50.-The United
States government has given directions
looking to the recognition of King Peter
Karageorgevitch Of Servia. Mr.. jack
son already has received his creden-
tials as minister of the United States to
Belgrade, and it is said at the state
department that it merely is a question
of short time when he will present
those credentials in person at the Ser
Wan court. The fact that Mr.. Jackson
is also minister to Greece and Rumania
is said to account for the delay in es-
tablisting relations with Servia.

WOULD BE VERY ENTANGLrNG
Ontario Premter's View OF Reciproci,,
with UNIFIED stntss. !


! Toronto, Ont, Nov. 30.-In a speech
before the Canadian club this afternoon
Hon. G. w. Ross, premier Of Ontario.
said, among other things: .-
1.-THE most entangling alliance at this
time would be a reciprocity treaty with
the United States. There had been
such a treaty. 1t had been annulled
because it had not satisfied the Ameri-
cans an a new one would sooner or
later meet the same fate.
II believe in establishing a trade with
Britain which would be permanent. I
do not believe in making our trade at
the mercy Of congress or of any for
eign country. We can get all we want
from the United States without treaty.
If the United States wanted Canadian
products they could take off the duty.
1t is as simple as A. B. c. If they're
anxious for reciprocity, let them take
down their tariff WALL

in his right mind. Aubery formerly
