Contents of First Report.

The first report to Congress in re-
Spouse to Senate resolutions will con-
tain comparative figures showing the
amount of gasoline and crude oil pro-
duced at present and two or three years
ago, the volume exported, relative costs
of production, amounts sold in each
section of the country then and now
and comparative wholesale and retail

increase.
facts the investigation may disclose re-
lating to unjust discrimination by man
ufacturing and producing companies, is
contemplated later.
The investigation has been conduct ed
with view to determining four salient
points, as follows:
l. The extent of production and use
of gasoline now and two and three
years ago.
2. The volume of gasoline exported
and the supply remaining here for do
mestic use. particularly as to whether
the rise, or any portion of it, could be
attributed to a scarcity of product.
g. Whether there has been discrimi-
nation by big producers in favor of bi &
buyers
4. Whether there is actual competition
among the former elements that went
to make up the oil trust: if there is, to
what extent and how the small indie
pendent producer is affected thereby.

Bishop Henderson impressed How lit

Temperance Society Anniversary.

Language savoring of Billy Sunday
revival was used by speakers at the
anniversary service of the Temperance
Society last night. The booze bug"
was attacked in picturesque language
by Rev. Clarence True Wilson.
Like the bubonic plague, he said
the booze bug gets into the soul
of man and rots. it as the plague does
the body.
When cattle get the hoof-and- mouth
disease" he shouted, their mouths
water. and their knees knock together
When man gets drunk his knees
knock together. and he staggers and
reels. Neither the COW nor the man is
any more use for anything. The man
is no good as a citizen, and he is no
good for any other use on earth
The booze bug turns the husband
into "a brute and 1t turns the children
OF men into brutes. And it turns the
statesman into peanut politician" he
continued.

June 8 three Canadians were engaged
all day in doggedly bombing their way
back into possession of the positions
which they had lost the day before.
until at the end of the day they had
all but a few yards OF the lost
trenches.
The German bombardment of two
hours was followed by an infantry ad-
vance on three thousand yards of front
from the Ypres Confines Railway to
HODGE. the point of the vicious Ypres
salient. the most extensive front of
any recent attack and the Canadians
responded cody and skillfully.
In the Hooge sector the German at
tack was stopped with heavy loss. For
a thousand yards In the center, where
the Germans secured Judgment, the
Canadian fire from the positions In the
rear filed the ruined trenches with
German dead.
The perplexity caused by the first
news OF the big naval fight which
rapidly spread through the army has
been succeeded by a feeling OF salts
faction. as full accounts Of the engage
ment have been received.
