A despatch from London says:•-• Harnonn de Valera's notion in opposing the treaty between Great Britain and Ireland was not entirely unexpected, the conclusion having been drawn be- cause of his silence that the terms'of the settlement did not meet with his Wishes, or in his opinion the aspira- tions of that section of Ireland Which he represents. Several meetingsof the Dail Eir. ean''n "cabinet" were' held in Dublin on Thursday, and while no official statement was given .out, it was early hinted that a division of views had occurred among the Sinn Fein Man- haters. In his public statement Mr, de Valera makes. it known that in his opposition to the settlement he has the support of at least two members of the 'cabinet," the "Minister of Horne Affairs and the Minister of Defence," Austin Stack and Charles Burgess. On the other hand, Arthur Griffith, founder of the Sinn Fein and "Min- ister of Foreign Affairs"; Michael Col- lins, the "Finance Minister"; Robert C. Baton, "Minister of Economics," and George Gav'an Duffy and Eamon J, Duggan, have already -affixed their signatures to the treaty as plenipoten- tiaries. The views of other members J cad office,.

What, of the Cabinet have not been made Public, Arthur 'Griffith, head of the • Irish delegation which negotiated the settle- ment at London, has issued the follow- ing statement: "I have signed the treaty between Ireland and Great Britain. I believe this treaty will lay the foundations of peace and friendship between the two nations. What I have signed,,,I shall stand by, in the belief that the end of the conflict of. centuries is at heed." Mr. de Valera has summoned the Dail Eireann to meet next Wednesday morning. It' is on that day that the Imperial Parliament will be opened in state for the purpose of having the treaty submitted to it. One development in Irish -affairs on Thursday was the liberation of many prisoners, including several women, from Mountjoy Prison, undergoing sentences for ;political offences. Congratulatory telegrams continued to pour into Downing Street, Anrong the messages were felicitations from the French Premier, M. Briand; the South African Premier, Jan C. Smuts, and A. J. Balfour, on behalf of the British delegation at Washington. Markets of the World Toronto. Manitoba wheat—No. '1 Northern, $1.261/4; No. 2 Northern, 51.211/4; No. 8, $1.1414.

Lady Greenwood Receives Pen That Signed Pact A despatch from London says: The pen with which the Irish treaty was signed has been pre- sented by Lloyd George to Lady Greenwood in recognition of the share her husband, Sir Hamar Greenwood, had in laying the foundation of the Irish peace. This share is in danger of being forgotten, because Sir Hamar, realizing how completely ne has been,associated with the coercion policy, has deliberately kept in the background during the ne- gotiations. Yet in well-inform- ed circles it is claimed that to the Chief Secretary for Ireland belongs the credit of having initiated the movement which has conte to a successful end. e Offspring of Six Flies Totals Three Quadrillion A despatch from Paris says:— When six female flies were imprisoned on May 1 of this year by Prof. E.

A despatch froin Washington says:—To run around in shallow water inside the Atlantic entrance to the Panama Canal, to be killed by machine-gun fire, slated for the abattoir but finally towed out to sea and destroyed by bombs dropped from aircraft, was' the fate of a 125 -ton whale. The story is told in' the Pan- ama Canal Record, a prosaicslittle weekly publication which. deals in a routine way with canal matters. The whale made futile efforts to extricate itself but stuck fast with the top of its head and most of its back above water. A group of canal employees undertook to salvage the animal for food. A launch mounting a machine- gun was requisitioned and after the whale, a female of the species, had been killed, it was towed to a pier in order that it might be lifted front the water to a fiat car and sent to the abattoir. A 75 -ton railroad crane could not even budge the huge leviathan. After many unsuccessful attempts the salvage enterprise was abandoned. It was not a sperm whale and the carcass began to decompose. Finally a tug attached a line to the carcass and towed it to a point 12 riles outside the breakwater, where a navy airplane dropped two 160 -pound bombs from a height of 1,000 feet and destroyed it. t_ Robber Gets Five Years and the Lash A de'.patch froin Winnipeg says:— Magistrate Sir Ilugh John MacDonald made good his promise to suppress violent crime in Winnipeg with the lash when he sentenced John Hilciey to five years in the penitentiary and twenty lashes, for robbery. vided -with condensed milk for food. Their prison was roomy, airy, and kept at a nice, comfortable temper- ature. At the end ofthe first week each of the six had averaged 105 eggs, and by the end of the- month the total pro- duction was 2,692. By that time, too, several hundred of their direct des- cendants were busy at the egg -laying game, and the professor was even busier trying to find out how many flies he would have at the end of the season if production kept up at its normal rate. He figured in the end that each of his six prisoners would have by 'Sep- tember 30 produced 3,985,969,387,755,- 100 descendants.
