Sixty-five Million Bushels
Of Grain -Alberta s Recordi
Calgary, Alta. Aug. 3 -- Privet e
r eports, on the crops from some SO
eliffereat pointe in Alberta say that
d ' 1ll
1 kinds of grains wi
be mucb heavier and much more val-
hable th the farmer than last year.
The acreage andel' cultivation iu this
•province is practically the same as
in 1911 when the tothl harvest arre
ounted to nearly 60,000,000 bushels
• but conditions ave so much more fa.
vorable_liere this season that it is
expected the yields of wheat oats
barley ond flax will aggregate some-
thing like 05,000,000 bushels.
Cutting has Begun
Quite a large section of wheat has
been cut near MacLeod and barley is
beingcut generally throughout the
Province. By the end of the next
week all Alberta will be into the
"wheat, provided the weather of the
7
last five days continues. The wheat
crop in Alberta, with any kind of good
luck at all should amount closely to 25.
000,00 bushels which is over five mil-
lions more than, was harveseed last
year. There are some places in the
irrigation block; which, extends east
of here as far as 'Brooks • wheee the
wheat crop is reported to be as heavy
as 50 bushels to the acre. •
" /
Large Crop of Flax
One farmer living about .20 ales
directly north of 13assano hi the vic-
inity of the Red Deer River has 1700'
acres of flax which he expects to be.
gin to cut inside of ten deys. ide es-
timates his crop now at the rate of
15 bushels to the acre which will, at
present market prices for flax retenee
to him over $50,000. The cost of rais-
ing this crop according to the sworn
statement of the owner amounted to
slightly over $1 25 per Acre.

The latest figures available ad to the relative strength of the navies of
the world, presented a month or so ego in the British Parliament, shows
Britain to have 55 battleships, as compared with -the combined 64 of the
United States and Germany, who rank second and third.
This return, it should. he noted, does not profess to discriminate between
ships of varying battle -worthiness which are nominally of the same type. The
vessels are shown in 13 classes, and include all battleships and armored
cruleere which were not over 20 years of age from date of launch on March
31. 1912, with, in the case of other ships, all those which retained their arena-
tnents aud were not fax sale. .
In the tabular statement given below the nomber of British battle cruisers
building includes the Australia and New Zealand, provided by the Dominion
Governments ; the first-class protected cruiser total includes the Niolee, of the
Boys,' Canadian Navy. aud the second-class protected cruiser total the Rain.
-ow, the other Canadian cruiser. In the list of second-class protected cruisers
building, the Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane, for the Royal Australian
Navy are included ; and similarly, Dominion destroyers' and submarines are
included in the totals for those classes.

Relative Totals Of Other Powers
As compared with the relative totals in the return issued ha May, 1911,
eireat Britain has artde a net, gain of two in her battleship strength ; Germany
al net gain of one, and the United States a net gain of two, Whereas, there
-fore, we had 58 battleships to the 61 of the Iwo next strongest powers, we now
have 55 to their 61. On the.other hand, the number nf ships building for each
.of the three powers remains precisely the same. As compared with tbe Triple
Alliance, the British superiority is two ships, .as compared with one ship a
year ago, hut the building list shows that the three powers have one more ship
in hand than was the case then. There is an improvement to be noted in tile
position of France relative to Austaia.11ungary and Italy, for she nes now.
21 battleships to their 20,the figures 12 months ago being 17 and 20 respectively.
In submarines, Britain maintains her lead over all powers, but the German
total has increased from eight to thirteen. There are also thirteen -German
submarines building, and it is added that further numbers are uncertain.

stroyed and two nearby villages were
engulfed. Adrianople suffered little
(image, but Tehorlu was partially de-
stroyed. by the earthquake and fire.
The centre of the disturbance ap-
pears to have been in the region of the
Dardanelles. Eye -witnesses have ar-
rived here from that section and give
harrowipg accbunts of the havoc
wrought. The majority of the houses
in Gallipole are in thins and the peo.
ple are camping in the fields.
Tehenak-Balessi is in an equally bad
plight, but the lose eh lives in these;
towns is Small; although the injured
are many. •
The shock was felt on the warseips
ancnored in the Dardanellee. It Was
first attributed to Italian torpedo
boats. The captain of the American
steamer Virginia reports that the light-
house at Crams -Elora, in the Sea of
Marmora, has disappeared a,nd that
the villages in the surrounding coun-
try are in flames. He was unable to
einither and render assistance owing to
the violent movement of the: see -
Li cull 1811 oVer 01111, cutting on ootn

by the train is not clear, as the body
was not discovered until some hours

Sacred Consistorial Congregation With
the Approval of the Pope Forbids,
Project and Orders That ,the
Group of Fathers Be Scattered
n Various Dioceses For Their'
Rebellion Against Bishop. '
Montreal, Aug. 12. -Events, moved
rapidly yesterday in the struggle be-
tween the priests of the Ste, Marie
Monnoir College at St. John's, and
the ecclesiastical authorities who in-
terdicted them for refusing to remove
their institution from that town and
return to the diocese of Ste. Hya-
cinthe, -where they were located under
Bishop Remind's jurisdiction some
years age, before a disastrous fire de-
stroyed their 'buildings and caused
them to decide ip favor' removing to
some more favorable site.
Yesterday a letter from the Sacred
Consistorial Congregation at Rome; a
court of last resort, was read in all
the churches throughout the diocese of
Montreal and Ste. Hyacinthe, preced-
ed by a brief joint episcopal note from
Archbishep Bruchesi and. Bishop Ber-
nard, fully supporting the rulings of
the two prelates, rulings which were
supported by the apostolic delegate at
Ottawa, and condemning in the most
severe terms the priests who have op-
posed their ealesiastical superiors.
Following this, an authoritative an-
nouncement -was given out that the
priests had decided to submit to the
ruling of the holy see; that the Mr.
Edward, whose claims against the col-
lege had resulted in the civil court
order, declaring that the priests must
not leave St. johns until these claims
had been duly settled, had agreed to
aocept $56,000, permitting the priests
to go Where they chose; and that the
priests, following their submission
would be rehabilitated and their sus-
pension lifted.
The college will be abandoned and
the prestos scattered among other dio-
ceses in other capacities. This will.
leave the field at St. Johns open for
Archbishop Bruchesi's educational in-
stitution.
The letter from the consistorial col-
lege refers to the petition of • the
priests,, dated July 11, against the de-
crees of Archbishop Bruchesi, Bishop
Bernard and the apostolic delegate,
and deolares absolutely against the
peetensione of the priests. The deci-
sion was unanimous and it was after-
wardcontinual by his holiness the
Pone.
The letter (translated from the Latin
text), continues in part as toilettes:
"Following this deoision, the priests
must be considered suspended in all
places," and referring in particular to
the necessity of their abandoning'their
college, eve,:
"As auch.ii prolonged and stubborn
rearatence on the part of these priests
to the orders of their bisli3P-a, to the
sentences duly Cid legitimately ace
jrn-4, eyen to the notiss...440
lbld3 of the holy see is a thing
absolutely condemnable - and as on
tithetti.t;ItirizahluLandthe
_whloyhtemmi
they tiaiork to
which
could ILM.1 "Inoldea, in order to refuse
obedience, it follovie therefore that
these priests must he considered in ab-
solute rebellion against thelegitimate
authority or the church, arid as such
. absolutely unworthy af having the
education of children committed to
their care by the faithful of the
church."
. The letter concludes: "And only af-
ter a suitable penance for the very
grave scandal caused to the faithful
and after manifesting signs of repent -
awe for their sins, shall they be re-
habilitated in the exercise of their
holy ministry."
The bishops are also told to waro
the priests that it they persist in their
attitude, they will incur even greater
punishment.
