Ouinby on U-Boats
and New Anesthetic
One in Country's Favor and the
Other Against Us

Henry c Quinby, lawyer, told his
fellow members at the Rotary lunch OF
two important features connected with
the war. He first took up the new Ger
man U-boats and said they are now
building boats of 1000 tons capable OF
attaining a speed Of twenty-six knots
on the surface and sixteen knots sub
merged. with a radius of 5000 miles.
They will have special compartments
carving nine folded air planes that
can be put ahoat in fifteen minutes,
capable of 100 miles an hour, with
flying radius of 200 miles. He pointed
New York nor any American coast city
was invunerable.
His second statement was in refer
ence to a new anasthetic invented by
Gordon Edwards, a San Francisco law
yer, known as "Nikalgen." According
to Mr.. Quimby. it was tried out in the
trench hospitals with wonderful sue
cess under the eyes OF discountlng
army surgeons. Nikalgen is composed
of quinine, hydrochloric acid and urea.
1t is applied to the open wound with
an atomizer. 1t deadens the pain at
once and is absolutely harmless. The
Queen of the Belgians herself applied
il to wounds in her hospital dressings.
Mr.. Edwards, the inventor was unable
TO enlist the interest of the American
medical profession, and himself carried
the drug to Europe, with the result that
he is the only civilian that has been al
lowed in the first line trench hospitals.
Another interesting speaker at the
luncheon was Count de Beaufort, guest
OF William Morris. De Beaufort is on
leave of absence from the French
army. He said that ignorance of con-
ditions on the other side was the prin-
cipal reason why this country has not
responded with more force. Americans
are needed both for physical and moral
support, and the sooner they get into
action the sooner the reign OF au-
tocracy will end and peace prevail.
+. T. Woods, vice-president of the
New York Railways Company. spoke on
vehicular traffic, and suggested instruc-
tons to drivers to keep tracks clear

Ottawa. June 12.-The government

House Yesterday, has won the instant
support Of the press and majority OF
the public. Many Of the newspapers

government TO conscript big incomes
Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his former
ministers are laboring TO save the LID

Premier pleaded for harmony ana
urged that by all means the party be
saved.

ouires for reinforcements for the great
Canadian army overseas VIII De got
from the first three classes-that IS,
among single men and widowers with.
out children between the ages OF
twenty and thirty-four. The first class
is between the ages OF twenty ana
twenty-three, the second class between
twenty-four and twenty-eight and the
third class between the ages Of twenty
nine and thirty-four. 1t is therefore
not expected that any married men or
widowers with children will be taken
The first married man class is fourth:
The expectation is that the first
three classes of unmarried men or
widowers without children in Ottawa
will provide about three thousand men.
There is a rumor that General Byng
may be seen in Canada in the near tut
ure. This sentence occurred in con-
gratulatory cable the Duke OF Devon
shire has sent TO him: 81 hope we
shall have the pleasure of welcoming
you at no distant date" Though there
is nothing official, the last sentence has
given rise TO the report that General
Byng, who has had an association of a
year with North Americans through his
command of Canadians, may be coming
out to lend hand in organizing Can
ade's reinforcements.

and a right one--that when man en-

pressed a desire to drive one of the

niiied his willingness TO enlist. Mr..

carried unanimously that the club would
pay young Reinhardt his full salary

for Same Period in 1915.

Total shipments Of lard from the
United States to the Netherlands dur

with 113.o0O.0O0 pounds shipped to Hol-
land during the first nine months of
1916, according to figures obtained today
from the bureau of foreign and domestic
commerce.
Agents of the Belgian relief COM
mission. located at Rotterdam, took
the entire amount of approximately
100000 pounds of lard exported from
the United States during September,
1917, an official of the bureau declared to-
day. During September about 1000, 900
pounds of lard were exported to Great

million pounds to France.
The great bulk of the $4,000, 900

mission might find it's way into Ger

Reports on Suspicious Germans
From All Sections.

A flood Of letters and kilograms re-
porting suspicious Germans. the result
Of President Wilson's proclamation inn
posing restrictions on alien enemies,
reached the Department Of Justice to-
day and were carefully scanned by
agents Of the bureau Of Investigation.
Many were from persons who did
not understand that the alien enemy
regulations applied only to unnatural
lied Germans and not to those Of Ger
man nativity or birth who have be-
come citizSns.
The Investigation bureaus mail has
been particularly heavy for several
months. since the Department Of JUS
tice issued an appeal to all citizens
to report any persons or circumstances
appearing dangerous to the country's
prosecution Of the war. Persons wrote
detailed accounts OF their German
neighbors' habits of living and lengthy
explanations of their suspicion.
These letters are still welcomed, al
though most Of tho information they
have furnished has not been Of great
value.

War Is Service to Christianity.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, November 2s.-
America is waging a righteous war.
and it should be regarded as a holy
crusade in the interests Of Christian
ity, Bishop John Gardner Murray Of
Maryland said, as presiding officer at
Yesterdays session Of the Protestant
Episcopal Synod Of tho province OF
Washington.
The synod decided on Baltimore as
the next place Of meeting. A commit
tee was appointed to invite the Arch
bishop of York to this country. 1t being
the sentiment Of the synod that q visit
of the English prelate to the United
States would do much good.
A committee also was appointed to
consider the question Of the organiza-
tion and unifcation of the rural work
within the province, which embraces
Pennsylvania, Delaware. Maryland.
Virginia and the District Of Columbia.
In an address on DEMONSTRATION and
the War" Bishop Philip NJ. Rhinelander
of Philadelphia said that if he were to
be given his choice of chances for sal
vation. he would take his place with
the boys in the trenches.
The synod indorsed nationwide pro-
hibition.
