FORMER GERMAN EMPEROR WILL BE IMPRISONED IN TOWER OF LONDON International Trial Court to Sit in London â€" Penalty Will Not be Death, But Banishment For Life. A (icspati'h from London says; â€" William Hohonzolli'in, the former Ger- man Emperor, will be brought to Eng- land in a British ship and imprisoned in the Tower of London, acconiing to the Daily Mail. The death penalty w.ll not be Boupht, the newspaper points out, but if he is found Kuilty, the allies will ask his banishment for life to a re- mote island, following the precedent of Napoleon's exile on St. Helena. The international trial »aurt had intended to try the former Emperor Blone, the Daily Mail says, but it is jiossible that the former Crown Prince Frederick William will aljo be ar- raigned before it. • The former German Emperor's ffuards at Anieroi.gen have been in- ereared, according to the Daily Mail correspondent, and his staff has ' been reduced. Lieut.-Gen. von j Esturff has left for Berlin. Well- informed ' circles in The Hague, this I correspondent says, do not believe I that Holland will give the ex-Emperor up to the allies. They ,.re of the opin- , ion that he will remain in Holland . for the rest of his life. Markets of the World Bread-stuffs.

Arpoints Day For Empire Peace Festival. A despatch from Ottawa says:â€" His Majesty has i,;sucd a proclama- tion appointing Sunday the 0th day of July, as a day of gfneral thanksgiving for the blejsinj,' of peace, and it is his desire tliat this day shall be ob- servde not only in all the United King- dom, but in all quarters of the Empire. The King has also- given his sanction to a peace celebration in the United Kingdom on Saturday, July 19, and the hope is expressed that all parts of the Empire will join as far as pos- sible ,in celebrating peace on that day. Inasmuch as war is still being wag- ed in many campaigns in Europe, and while peace still remains to be signed with three of the enemy nations, the Government of Canada were of opin- ion that a later date would be more appropriate. However, in view of his Majesty's proclamation, and having regard to the de.5ire expressed as to a general celebration of i.eace throughout the Empire, the Government have ap- pointed Sunday, the Gth day of July, as a day of general thanksgiving for the blessing of peace, and they have also concurred in appointing Satur- day, the 19th day of July, for peace celebrations in all parts of the Domin- ion.

All day Friday the weather throughout the north continued show- ery, -at least in the districts beginning at Boston Creek on the south, and Cochrane and Porcupine on the north. The rain began to fall at all the "points of danger ut an hour ranging from about three to five o'clock this morniing, and this has been followed by intermittent showers. The rain is expected to held the fires within bounds for the time being. It is considered unfortunate that bush fires should have gained such headway S'O early in the summer, and the rains of to-day will only suffice to eonstiitute a tempora.ry check. A prolonged wet spell will be necessary to put the fires out completely. On the other hand, another pro- longed dry spell would permit the present smoldering fires to spring into renewed life. All appears to be safe for the pre_-ent, but the summer is yet very young, it is reasonable to expect that residents in the various parts of the north will not permit themselves to fall linto a state of false security, but rather will maintain careful vigilance and prevent as far as possible the recurrence of a forest fire outbreak. â€" a .

It was the most spectacular military event in London since the armistice. Twenty thousanid men from various and variegated regiments participat- ed, and London, a great lover of spec- tacles, gave her own sons a welcome which would be hard to surpass.
