THE WAR SITUATION.
Tne main new from the seat of war
tins week, and it is good news, too, is
tkei stavei engagement which occed
in the NorthiSert early Tuesday morn -
Sag when a fleet of some 12 or 14 Ger-
ms* torpedo boats and destroyers were
interc.spnel by a British patrolling
Soot, and in the short fierce engage -
merit whick followed the Germans suf-
fered seeious losses: The British an-
neal eport states that at least one
Germa* best was sunk, but owing to
alarknois Wares impossible to ascer-
tain the full loss sustained by the en-
emy. Later reports, however, from
litatth ports, off which the engagement
woo fought, report that at least' seven
Germaa boats were sunk to one Brit-
ish destroyer, and two have been tow-
ed into tker narix,r at Yuimden, Hol-
land in a sinking conditon,one of which
kat oa board tei dead and sixteen
;wounded,- among the dead being -the
commander on the veesel and two oth-
er officers who were on the bridge with
hint wiles it was Shot away. The Ger-
ing* flotilla, whick had been in the
harbor at Zeebriigge, was endeavoring
to make a run fOr a home port, to es-
cape being frozen in, owing to the se-
vere weather conditons in which case
tkey would have been in danger of
destruction from the fire of British
NIOnittrtfl. The British fleet, however,
intervened, whether by chance or not
is not stated, but from the complete
surprise of the attack, the fierceness
of the engagement and the shortness
• of the range it is quite pronable, and
more than likely, that the British . as
well as the Germane have means of
obtaining inside information, and were
lying in wait for the enemy.
On the Western front, the week has
been a quiet one, nothing but the in-
cessant artillery fire and a.few raids_

formed the principal ones have been.
• reported. There is, however, an ine
cessant hum of activity behind the
lines. Men, guns and munitions are
being gathered in untold numbers and
everything points to a resumption of
activities at a very recent date. It is
possible that the big push will come a
month or more before it is expected.
On the Eastern front, the German
team roller has: come to a stop. It
can move no further, and owing to the
weather conditions and Russian re-
inforcements, it might almost be said
to be mired. Along this whole front
the situation has greatly improved
from the standpoint of the Allies, not
only the Russians but the Roumanians
are again making a -firm stand and at
snore than one point have even assum-
ed the offensive.
• President Wilson has renewed his
efforts to promote peace. On Monday
he directly addressed the senate cham-
ber a practise which has not been fob
towed by a United States president for
more than a hundred years, the main
terms of his peace address be -
55 follow:
That the peace must be a peace
without victory, that it must be a
neace agreed to by "equals", and not
dictated by victors.
• That it shall make no effort to draw
distinctions between the rights of big
and small nations.

THE DOMMICON PARLIAMENT
The speech from the Throne at the,
opening of Parliament today contain-
ed the definite statement that only. by
an extension of the life.of the present
Parliament could a general election be
averted. No reference to pending leg
islation was contained in the speech
beyond announcement fo lite extension
proposal and the general annuonces
rent tat certain legistation dealing
with the readlustment of: conditions
after the war would be submitted. -
His Exceliency the Duke of Devon-
shire officiated for the first tune at the
• opening ceremony on Monday, and to
sequently, unlike the occasions of t
past two years, it was not a khaki
*pening, the guard, of honor and the at-
tendant aides appearing in full regi-
mentals. The ceremony, itself, how-
ever, was divested of some of its cus-
• tomary features of a sociatcharacter
owing partly to war conditions, but
chiefly to the limited accornmoclistion
available hi the temporary home of
Parliament.
The speech front the Throne was as
• folloves:
