St. Thomas News

A big deal was yesterday consummated
by our we'll known merchant, Mr.. H.
0. Creque in the purchase of estate La
Masure, of st. John.
La Masure is one of the best estates
in St. John, famous for it's bay leaf
industry, and with a soil we'll adopted
for the raising of lines and %cocoanuts, of
which valuable products there are several
large groves.
These industries Mr.. Creque intends
to develop to the fullest extent, and in
this endeavor has decided to expend large
sum of money.
1t is also said Mr.. Creque will specialize
in the raising of cattle and mules.
The scenery surrounding La Masure is
described by its late owner, Mrs. West
brook Of New York, as the most roman
tic she has ever seen.
We understand that the price paid for
La Masure was $4,000.
We compliment our enterprlslng clti-
zen on mis- latest business venture and
wish him a full mearure of the success
which we feel sure will attend him

spectators, who jammed all available

ROYAL route. All the Bazaars remained
open and there was no sign of a "Har-
tal'' in the city, although some outlying
shops closed t cir doors in recognition of
the holiday spirit. The royal procession
was stopped on the way to the Govern
ment House while the Prince was given
a welcome reception by the municipal
authorities, this was followed by a per-
Torrance during which a party of young
girls scattered flowers along the Princes
path to the accompaniment OF hymns
chanted in sanskrit by richly robed Dun

upon the Maharajah. A number of shoot
ing parties have been arranged IN honour
of the royal visit.

Dublin, Jan. 22nd. Martial Law has
been declared in the Kilmalloch area
by the Brigade Commander of the Re
publican Army at east Limerick, accord
ing to a telegram received here yester-
day from Chorleville, County Cork. This
action was taken, said the message,
because of hay burning and other dis
orders in the area.
London, Jan. 23rd. The political situa-
ton has entered a fresh phase. 1t is re-
ported that Mr.. Lloyd George and the Ri.
Hon. Austen Chamberlain, supported
by the Liberal and Conservative leaders,
have reached the conclusion that the
maintenance Of the Coalition Govern
ment is indispensable for the successful
conduct of the country's affairs in the
present circumstances 1t is stated that
the leaders have decided to defer the
calling of a general election and con
centrate upon a threefold policy of re-
ductlOn of expenditure, remission Of
the income tax and a campaign against
the labour party. 1t is alleged that this
agreement was reached after conces-
sion were made by both sides, Mr. Cham
berlain abandoning his insistence for
reform of the House Of Lords and the
Premier c%onsenting to postpone some
planks of the Liberal platform. Whether
the agreement will convinca dissenting
richards and rebellious Liberals is
somewhat doubtful. but Coalition organ
izers are relying upon the admitted
weakness of the dielards in their con-
%stituencies. A particular tender spot is
the ALLEGATION of seats as the Liberals
have intimated that they requ re a
far larger proportion han was allotted
in the 1918 election and unless the con
servative8 consent, in the next election
fresh trouble is likely to arise for the
Coalition.
