IN NOVA SCOTIA As
TROOPS PREPARE

Sydney, N. S., June 15.-(AP1-
With troops stationed behind barbed
wire entanglements in improvised,
shelters and batteries of searchlights
sweeping the approaches to the pow
er station at New Oberdeen the
strike affected area was quiet to-
night. Scores of the striking miners
of the British Empire Steel Cor
poration watched from distance as
the Dominion troops busted them
selves in converting the colliery dis
trict into an armed camp; but there
were no hostile demonstrations.
An attempt will be made, It Is be-
lieved, to resume the operation OF
the New Aberdeen Power Station,
under the guard of troops, for the
maintenance of the mines in the
southern district.
Thirty mounted troopers and $50
infantry men arrived in the Sydney
mines district today. Other troops
were reported on the fay from OF
tawa and Toronto to augment the
armed force patrolling the colliery
district. At the Sydney mines, $50
miners were sworn in as special con-
stables.
James Murdoch, minister of labor,
is expected to arrive tomorrow in an
endeavor to mediate the difficulties
existing between the 1900 striking
miners and the British Empire Steel
Corporation over the wage scale.

ONTARIO RESERVES
RIGHT TO. CUT OFF
EXPORT Of POWER

Ottawa, Ont, June 15.-(AP)-
Premier King tonight stated in the
house that the government intends
to permit the expectation of hydro
electric power to the United States
only on a yearly basis.
Where electric energy Is being
exported under license for that per-
iod of time" the prime minister said,
"all parties must understand that
one of the purposes in making the
reservation of the limited time is
that this country may at any NOM
ent, without giving cause for any
right of action or i'll feeling on the
part of another country to which
energy is being exported, have a
right to make use of it's own elec-
trio energy as required"
The governments attitude was
stated during discussion OF an
amendment moved by. r. V. Lesueur
Conservative, West Lambton, to
motion to go into the question OF
supply. The amendment besides
proposing the yearly license plan
stipulated that no license should be
issued beyond those outstanding, ex'
cept for off peak power.
Premier King objected to this
stipulation saying that 1t would Tie

KILLING mackenzie
BY CHINESE SHIPPERS

Washington. June 15.-(AP)-
The killing today of w. w. MacKen-
zie and the wounding of his COM
panion, Miss Mary Duncan. by Chi
nese snipers. promised to shift the
center of interest in the disorders in
that country back to Shanghai from
Canton, although official word of
the new and more serious disturb
ance was still lacking.
The state department had no
records indicating whether either or
both of the victims were Americans.
but even if they were British nation
ais, it seemed certain that the at
tack on non-combatant foreigners
would be made the basis of action
by the Picking diplomats of the gov
eminent involved. The Picking le-
cations, it was said here, would be
sure to move quickly in demanding
action by the Chinese central gov
eminent.
Officials here have felt increasing
" confident that the agitation
among Chinese students would not
develop into the general attack on
foreigners which marked the Boxer
uprising and led the powers to~joint
military operations in China. In
fluential leaders among the agitators
apparently have been endeavoring
to avoid any such contingency. real
izing it could only result in the
landing of sufficient foreign troops
and marines to protect all foreign
nationals and to administer severe
punishment for any casualties.
The real power behind the Picking
provincial government, Chang Tso-
Lin, the Manchurian war lord, also
has foreseen this possibility and not
only has warned the Chinese but
sent selected troops to danger points
to preserve order, and for these rca-
sons, it was believed likely here that
the central government authorities
would hasten to make what amends
they could in the MacKenzie-Dun-
can case.

NO MACMILLAN
AID FOR AMUNDSEN
UNLESS NAVY SAYS

Washington June 15.-(AP)-An
effort by the naval plane with the
Macmillan expedition to search for the
Missing Amundssn polar party, Secre-
tary Wilbur said today, will be made
only by order of the navy department
after they reach the base at Etah,
Greenland.
In lending planes and personnel to
the Macmillan expedition, Mr.. Wilbur
asserted, the navy was under agree
ment to make its prime object the ex-
ploration of the unknown region be-
tween Alaska and the North Pole, and
intended to carry out that mission.
The expedition. he added, will be in
daily touch with Washington by ra-
dio, and If any change in the plans is
found desirable this can be arranged
after communication with the depart
mert.
The secretary said it was intended
to do whatever reasonably could be
done in searching for Amundsen. but
nothing more. No plans OF the
Amundsen expedition, he added, had
been communicated to the department
Gin any way, shape or FORM" and ne
said he regarded it utter folly TO
undertake a search for Amundseh
without some data to go on.

Morocco, having flown from Rabat
yesterday to Malaga, where he rest
ed over night. He boarded the train
soon afterward for Paris, ready to
give an account of mission to Presi'

The Painleye party were delayed
in arriving on French soil by the
warm welcome extended to them AT

at the aerodrome. In fact, their re-
ception wherever they landed on
Spanish territory, pleased the
French air travellers immensely ano
was considered to augur well for Iu-
ture Franco Spanish collaboration IN
the modification of Morocco.
The announcement by Admiral LIE
Ma paz acting president of the Span
ish directorate, that the chler Oh the
French naval forces in Moroccan
waters had arrived at Ceuta to con-
fer with the Spanish authorities add
