Information Meager. The bill appropriating $300,000 for ' the preservation of the battlefields of Quebec was generally commended, but there was some dissatisfaction ex pressed at the meager data furnished by the prime minister. He admitted that this entire sum might be used tip Jn the pageant which would cele brate the tercentenary of Quebec, a great national holiday to be made mem orable In history by the visit of the i 1 'i. i 1 i Prince of Wales and the assembled fleets of Great Britain, France and the United States.

The expropriation of the Ross Rifle company plant at a cost or u.oou.uuu Is a feature In this otherwise commend able enterprise which Is well worthy of attention. Other features or the ais cusalon was Sir Wilfrid Laurler's pre diction that the British government would aid In the enterprise and the re quest from many members that various historic spots in their own constituen cies should be appropriately dedicated. The bill passed Its second reading and remains in committee. Sir Wilfrid Hurler. In moving the second reading of the bill, alluded In eloquent terms to the stirring scenes that closed the long struggle between England and France for the possession of Canada He explained that this 1300.000 would be placed in the hands of a commission. This commission would consist primarily, of five mem bers, to be appointed by the govern ment. The commissioners already chosen were: George Garneau. mayor of Quebeo: Sir George Drummond. By ron is. walker, colonel u. t. uenieon. nd Hon. Adelard Turgeon of Quebec. The bill further provides that any prov Ince contributing $100,000 may name an additional member of the commission The same provision extends to Great Britain or any self-governing state of tne empire. The premier then read to tne house. amidst hearty applause from the sides of the chamber, the letter from Earl Grey announcing the approaching visit of the Prince of Wales to attend the ter centenary celebration, arriving with the British fleet at the city of Quebec, on the 22d of July, and remaining until the 29th. Sir Wilfrid Laurler made the further announcement that the Province of Que bec would at once contribute Jioo.uoo, and the city of Quebec was prepared to make a handsome contribution.
