THE DOCTORS Discuss the Question of Fall and -Other Examinations, Dr, Young on Top—The New Legis- lative Committee. 40140••••••.•••••••• Toroato, jute, 11.—Members of the On- tario Medical Council Saturday placed themselves on record AS being in favor of the abolition of All medical examine - tions, except the finals,' which are held in the fall each year, As Dr, Hoar's no- tice of a motion to abolish all fall exam- inations was ruled out of order nu the ground that a by-law was ueeessarea Dr, Cormack moved a reeolutioti foe an expression of opinion, which was carried. 'The students thus will have it full yearn notice, and unless next year's council de- cides to hold the supplementary and final examinations in the fall, as at pres- ent, no "sups!' will be held. When the question was broached Dr. Spankie said the final examinations should be behl, but tile supplementary examinations might well be abolished. Dr. Cormaek agreed, and thought the finals should be held in October or No- vember. Dr. Starr said it would be bet- ter to send tbe recommendation on to the next council, so Hutt the students would have notice. It would be unfair, he said, to make stuelenta wait a year. Ile favoind the British system of hold- ing examinations every time months. Dr. Haag discovered that it was neces- sary to pass a by-law to change the dates of examinations and asked for a ruling. Dr. Cormaek elairaed that tho notice of 'motion given by Dr. Hone:made the discussion in order, Dr. Love, the president, ruled thaathe notice of inotion should have stated that it by.law was to be introdeced, and that the entire discussion was out of order, Dr. Bascom took exception to the rul- ing, which was sustained by a large ma- jority. In order to get an expression Of opin- ion, Dr. Cormack moved that all fall examinations, except the fiats, be dis- continued. The motion was carried by a vote of 13 to 7, and the opinion of the council therefore is that alle fall supplementary examinations will be dis- continued. Dr: W. A. 'Young's letter to :the coun- cil was again disenssed, Dr. Bray, tbe regnant., asked if he would have to ae- khowledge the letter. Dr. Moorehouse thought that --the laying of the letter on the table finished the whole thine.. Dr. Hart said the intention was Co throw the books open for the inspection of any maim' man, "Dr. Young has tee, whichever -way we aet," said Dr. McCallum, "simply be- cause, we lost our tempers and made a greet tactical error. If Dr. Youngtwants that information, he should be able to get it." Dr. lartraon expressed the same opinion arid said any doctor should have access to the books if he went to the college and asked. It. therefore, was de- eided ot allow Dr. Young to have ac- cess to the treasurer's books. Doetors Merritt, Vardon, King, Hardy and Griffin werenominated to act as the Legislative Conunittee for the year. "That eommittee is -too large," said Dr. Hart.

No contests between the various aviators, and only exhibition flighte were made. Ralph Johnstone, of Kansas City, in the Wright biplane No. 2, was to have been the Slat to fly, He had great difficulty in starting, however. Tbe big machine seemed to move un- steadily on the sIngie rail from which it rises. Two attempts were nutde and each time the small wheel beneath the plane left the track before sufficient mo- mentum for an ascent had been pined. The runway was then taken up and laid itt another place. The, failure of the machine to rise at the outset was said to have been due to the Menet:fence of some of the starters.

In the current events of the day Can - adieus could uot fail to see the need for such an organization as that of the Orange Order.' An inquiry, said the .proaeter, het beet male Mb eeneaL conditions in the three eaetern counties of Russell, Prescott and Glengarry. Conditions were tueh as- to demand an immediate remedy. The present Govern- ment inherited these oonditions from their predeeeezors. If, however, no re- medy was found then Orangemen inust hold the, present Government equally guilty with its predeeessora. What Orangemen and every patri- otic Canadian desired was a system of nationally lion -sectarian schools where the children of Protestant, Roman Catholics, people of all creeds Wad races slioald have their eltildven taught side by side from the same text -books. In the meantime, and until that longed -fur day arrived, it was necessary to ettrefally watch sehool conditions' lit the counties named. Rev.

Turning to the mixed marine ques- tion Mr. Coburn said in part that while he was not himself in favor of such marriages, yet they were perfectly legal, and it shoinid be mane a cant beat offence if lb was net se already for any clergyman or priest to de- clare. that parties coetraeting such Mar- riages, were guilty of adultery.

Hays. eft Negotiations Are Off and Men Will Now Vote on Strike. Statement Made by the Men as to Why Increase Is Needed. Montreal,.July 10.—A strike vote be to be taken thee week of the 4,500 conductors and traiumen in the em- ploy of the Grand Trunk Railway in Canada and the United Statek, and of the 350 Inert employed in the same capaeity on the Central Vermont Rail- way, This ie the result of the nego- tiations, which, for the time being at lent, came to an end tate last night between the committee aud President trays. las Grand Trunk offered to give the men, the rates recommended inthe majority report of the Boaret ut Con- ciliation, whieh Was signed by the chairman and the repreeentative of the men, the company's representa- tive dissenting,. ane committee, bow, - over refused to accept the tate e agreed to by the merits representative and also the suggestion by President Hays that, tlte wage question be referred to a committee of three practical railway men for arbitration, the finding to be binding on both parties. Melte the committee had full power to call it strike, it was telt that in view of the Atter suggestion it wouid bit fultassable to mania -consult the men as tar whether they were willing to accept arbitration with a binding :ward, or would go out at once for tne eastern standard' scale. This settle,. the repreeentatives of the men eay, has been adopted by the 0.P.R., there only remaining a few details in connection with the rules to be clear- ed up to make the settlement coni. PetPlailchiefiGrand Trunk anc trainmen have handed out a d Canadian .statement settxng forth their reasons for refusing to accept the award oe the Conciliation Board. After setting forth that on lines west of Chicago and the Mississippi River uniform wage rates obtain much higher than on the railroads east of Chicago, the statement goep on to detail the riske that railwaymen have to take and the exactions of,ethe business. It is pointed out that the tonnage handled by. railroad men in freight trains has increased materially, while mileage .made by those men has de- creased, piece workers paid on a mileage basis ahave heretofore in many cases suffered a wage reduc- tion, because they have been able to earn 'very much more for their em- ployers and not as much for them- selves. This sounds strange, but fewer slow freights even with over- time produce more for the companies than many last freights' with testa tonnage and :more emplboes. The Inter -State Commerce donnnistion for the tinted States shows in the fol- lowing figures the tonnage has wetted up Mid mileage down. The number of tons carried by the railroads for each trainman employed in 1813, was 5,595 tons, while itt 11108it was 7,358 tons, an increase of 2,275 tons per man. The average number of tons in a train ie 1893 was 184, while in 1908 it was 352, an increase of lo2 tons per man. The umber of freigbt cars handled par trainman employed in 1803 was eight; in' 1008 it was ten, an inerease of two cars per inan. This increase in weight of trains, number of tons 1tate.c.1 and number of ears per man employed, has been accompanied by -a decrease in the number of train miles run for each ti ain- man employed, and consequeutly a re- duction in tint earnings of the trahunce, The number .of train Miles for each employee in 1903 was 5,764, while in 1908 it Was 5,520, a deereaS? or 344 train miles run for each trainman employed. This indicates that by reason of heavier and longer trains the task of gettiug the trains over the road has become more burdensome, mid the men are not able to run its many miles in the same length of tinte as formerly. This means, bit means anything, that While responsibility has been increased, wages really helm been reduced. In the same connection the latest re- port of the Inter -State Commeree Com. mission in the United States shows that railway net income for 1909, Was groater than for 1008. Operating net revenuee for the year ending June 30, 1908, wae $2.877 per mile, and for the year ending June 301 1009, they were $3,189. ehowhig a fair increase for the time When the railroads were suffering frem busines, dc pression.
