SETTLEMENT OFFERED EXâ€"EMPEROR. Berlin, Aug. 20.â€"A bill has been submitted to the Prussian Cabinet which provides that 170,000,000 marks shall be handed over to the former Emperor William as total settlement for civr list he lost through the forced abdication, according to a Weimar dispatch to Dic Frieheit. The Cabinet has not yet reached a deâ€" cision, it is said, because the scheme is opposed by Herr Yon Braun, Minister of Agriculture. There is reason to believe that in the sale of matches an unjust and unâ€" weesonable profit is éxacted by manuâ€" facturers, jobbers and â€" retailers. There is a federal tax of 5¢ a box on all matches, and this tax is paid at the factory by the manufacturer. In sellâ€" ing to the jobber the producing firm adds together the sost of production and the tax and adds a percentage for profit. The jobber, in distributing the goods, adds a percemtage for proâ€" At. ‘The retailer does Bkewise. Thereâ€" fore, the consumer pays a profit of 36 4â€"11 per cent. on the TAX as well as on the matches. Is this fair or even justifiable?

The repeal of the law. which now tames its place among the very few whica have passed over a presidenial i<to _ becomes â€" effective â€" after the clocks are turned back to normal in October. Washington, Ang. 20â€" Repeal of the Daylight Saving Act was accomâ€" plished toslay, the Senate voting to sxslain the House in passing the re péal measure over President Wilson‘a veto, 57 to 19. was to the effect that the matter of #ane was the subject of provincial and not federal jurisdiction. The action was taken and the railways continued in the new schedule, the large cities and towns following them. The same argument as to the desirability of the two countries having the same time will apply when the United States sets back its clocks, as it did when they were moved ahead. There will be nothing to prevent any municipality going on daylight schedule by itself, but experience bas shown the need of nniformits and particularly of adâ€" jnsting@ railway time in view" of all the â€" cireumstances it would appear this may be the last season where daylight saving in Canada will be nationâ€"wide in its operation. Approved by Senate Ottawa, Aug. 20.â€"The action of the United States Congress toâ€"day in reâ€" pealing the Daylight Saving Act over the veto of President Wilson is of interest here as suggesting the probâ€" ability that this will be the last year of the system in Canada. There are many reasons, byt primarily of railâ€" ways, which suggest the need of two countries dperating on the same time schedule. Whenever _ the _ United States sets back its elocks and it is thought here that it won‘t be long till this year‘s daylight saving term is ended, Canada will do the same. Situation in Canada So far as legislation is concerned none was enacted in Canada this year. What happened was that when In the early spring, the United States advanced .the elocks, the Canadian railways on their own initiative took similar getions. So much opposition to the daylight saving scheme was manifested in the House that the Government would not take the reâ€" sponsibility of bringing in a bill, but an opportunty of discussing the quesâ€" lion was ifforded on a resotution movâ€" od by Majo:r Cooper. of Vancouver, in favor of the system. lt was voted down hy a large majority. About this time the railway commission called on the railways to show cause for advancing the time and they made out a strong case, showing how unless the time of the two countries was the same, inconvenience in the operation of trains would result and the acâ€" cident, hazard would be: enormously t increased.

The conference was held in the Mayor‘s office, and no time was lost in getting down to business. Sir Adam‘s Suggestions Sir Adam was asked for some adâ€" vice, first of all as to the best method of dealing with the street railway. He suggested two ways of handling the situation: first that the city put the line in shape by â€" reeonstructing the roadbed, pu(ting _ the overhead wires in good condition and putting on small oneman ears with more freâ€" quent service, and issuing debentures for the cost the city still to continue to operate the road; second, that the roa 1 be feased to the Hydro Commisâ€" sion, or sell it outright to the Comâ€" mission, with theâ€"idea of making it a part of the Hydroâ€"radial system. As a result of this discussion it is altogether likely th&t the City Coun cil at its next meeting, or perhaps at a special meeting, will pass a resoinâ€" tion asking that the Hydro send its man to Guelph to make a thorough investigation of the condition of the road, what it will cost to put it in good condition, and submit a report: hack to the city.
