Canada Does Not Favor.
 Japan Pact

London July 5-Premier Meighen of Canada who is attending the Brit ish Imperial conference threatens that Canada will proclaim herself outside of the Japanese treaty if it is renewed by Great Britain, according to a sensational despatch printed by the Manchester Guardian today. This threat was a veritable bombshen in diplomatic circles. It is viewed with the utmost alarm as an inroad upon the constitutional unity of the British empire.
 Despite intimations to the con trary it was definitely learned today that the United States government has not made any officlaf representa- uons regarding the renewal of the Anglo-Japanese treaty.
 Whitehall-the seat of British of- hcialdom is keenly disappointed. It is understood that the cabinet has given direct intimations to Washing ton regarding both the treaty and disarmament, but there has been no return move of official character.

Think Stray Bullet Caused
 Man s Death

Evidence which has so far been secured by the police in connection with the mysterious shooting of Louis Charmelia, of Hillside avenue, gives rise to the belief that the man was struck and killed by a stray bull let fired by some unidentified per son. The fatality occurred at g o'clock last night at the home of Antonio Count, 10S Suburban ave nue, where Charmelia had been spending the day. Count is now be- ing held without bonds, but it is probable that he will be released after Coroner John J. Phelan~ con cludes his investigation of the affair.
 At an autopsy which was started this morning by Medical Examiner Dr. Samuel M, Garlick, it was found that Charmelia had a pocket full of .22 calEber cartridges, some of which contained bullets. The dead man is said to have told his friend. Count, that the cartridges were given to him yesterday morning by a milk man. He had no revolver or gun on his person at the time of the shoot ing, and according to Count had not discharged any firearms during the course of the day.

The Barnum & Bailey-Ringling cir GUS had one 10000 mishap in Bridgeport, Saturday, that won't be forgotten for long, long time. Dur ing the morning Nancy, the three year old and baby giraffe of the herd for some unaccountable reason fell down in the pen and became tangled in the feet of the mother giraffe, a particularly large speci- men.
 The big animal became excited and before Andrew the best giraffe au- thority in this country. could rescue the smaller beast, she was so badly trampled that death followed in a few moments.
 With the old herd of the long neck ed animals on the Barnum !S Bailey circus the only success in breeding these animals in this country has been attained, and the mother of Nancy, is also the mother of all of the remaining herd now with the combined shows. They are very delicate animals, in spite of their huge size, and it has been considered remarkable that the herd has been kept intact so long.
