OIL FOR THE
BRITISH NAVY
The Gaspe Fields Are Considered Admirable For
the New Imperial Scheme.
A despatch from Landon says:
In view of the increasing attention
which is being directed to the adOn-
Hon of oil as fuel in the British
navy, it 18 interetihig nowthat
oil lands in different Parts of th• e
"Empire are 'being sedulously devel-
oped.- The decision of the Govern-
ment to secure supplies as far as
possible within the _Empire has giv-
en a new impetus to the search for
large oil deposits in different parts
of the dominions, and it would be
fitting that the premier dominion,
,Canada, should be reckoned among
the fuel -oil sources of supply.
In this connection Viscount Selby,
who is chairman of the Eastern
Canada Company, and -who has just
returned from the Canadian fields,
supplies interesting details. In the
course of a conversation Lord Selby
remarkedthat he was very greatly
impressed with what he saw and
heard during the visit. The moat
favorably situated oil fields in
Canada, from a geographical and
strategical point of view, *
he stet
are those of Gaspe, which extend
from the seacoast Orrthe Bay ,.of
• 0 -dope, on the Gulf of St. Lawrence,
for several miles in a north-wester-
ly direction.
It was in the Larocque district, in
the North-West, that a consider-
-able number of wells were put down
and 'good supplies of oil of a high
quality obtained. What is known
as an anticlinal formation extends
from this district in a south and
etsterly direction down to the
'oast. The opinions of experienced
frilling men and geologists in that
country are to the effect that oil
will be found there inlarge quanti:
ties. Should this be the case, the
importance of the field from the
points of supply for the British
navy and for marine and industrial
purposes cannot be overestimated'.

JEROME ARRESTED.
Taken to Jail in Coatieook for
Gambling.
A despatch from Coati000k, Qua -
bee, says: William Travers Jerome
was arrested here on Friday
charged with gambling. The com-
plaint was made by Milford Aid -
ridge, • a citizen. of Coati000k who
swore :that he had seen Jerome
playing poker in public on Thurs-
day. Jerome was taken to jail
where Thaw Was confined when
brought here two weeks ago.
Thaw's lawyers disclaimed any
knowledge of 'the arrest. The• be -
Ha prevailed that it was due 'solely
to ill -feeling among the towids
people, who resented jeromeds
presence. After Jerome was in jail
almost an hem: .his friends found
Magistrate McKee, who admitted
Jerome to $500 bail. 'Attorney Ver-
ret, assisting the New York State
authorities, said that the case
d•ontbless would be adjourned to
give jerome opportunity to fulfil
his miseio•n to Canada should the
immigration authorities deport
Thaw. Jerome left the jail smil-
ing. The special deputy attorney -
general sent to Canada by New
York State to regain possession of
Thaw, was led through the streets
with a hostile hooting, yelling,
jeering mob of men and boys at his
heels and was locked up in the
same cell that Thaw occupied When
he Was first arrested on Caniadian
soil. The newsdaper men who
played with Jerome •said the game
was "penny ante" with a "tenreent

The growth of cotton in the Empire is
one of the most notable indications of the
rapidly increasing prosperity of the cone
ides. A few years ago Lancashire cotton
mills were wholly dependent for their ma•
tweet on foreige countries; and the hulk
of the eupply came from the United' States.
There were regions within the Empire
suitable for the growth of cotton, but
they made 110 attempt to cultivate it, un-
til a mibeidy of $90,000 a year was granted
to the British Cotton Growers' Associa-
tion by the British Exchequer. That
wrought a great change. In seven years
the exports of raw cotton from the Crown
Colonies have almost doubled, while the
experts of cotton seed have increased lir
still larger proportion.
