"The decreased cost of meat ,1c here to stay," said Wilson today. "Prices have not declined before this because the farmers have not been feeding their stock freely. Hay, corn and wheat have been senrce. Now corn Is plentiful, fodder abun dant, and wheat condltlog promis ing; cosequently the market N flooded with cattle.

This action would se riously hamper, the llberasl. - If the government accedes to the demand of Lord Lansdowne, it would precipitate the question Imme diately In tho house of commons, which Is not overwhelmingly liberal, and which also Is not greatly antag onistic to the house of lords. If the government refuses to Introduce the bill, It would place the government In the attitude of going before the people admitting that It feared to introduce the lords' veto bill be fore election. Commenting on the situation, the Mornlyg News says: f "In surveying theoretically tho possibilities of the political situation, one Is compelled to consider prac tically the Inconceivable proposition that the crown may ally Itself with the lords to prevent the legalizing of the people's judgment. Such a move would mean monarchlal revolu tion, added to a peers' revolution; in such an event the gravest happenings the country has noted In centuries are to be expected." ENGINEER DEPARTED JAMKS M.

Montreal, Nov. 16. Scores of pros pectors are dead and mauy others dying on the trails south of the Por cupine gold mines In Northwestern Ontario, according toW. It. McLean, a mining expert who arrived here to day from the north. McLean declares that the men either starved to death or died of exposure. The Dominion government's agentB In the gold country were powerless in the face of failure of supplies. Appoals for aid failed to reach civ ilization, and McLean urges the au thorities here to send a relief expe dition, In the hope of saving some lives. , ' The story of the stampede from the Cobalt region to the new Porcu pine country surpasses In horror the sufferings experienced by the gold Beckers of the Kiondyke. When re ports of the strike on tbe Porcupine reached Cobalt all who were able to pack provisions left for the new gold district. Many carried only meagre supplies Into a country where there was no game, and which was barren and desolate. Owing to the poor roads, those who carried plentiful supplies wore compelled to' abandon them, and rely solely on the food tbey could carry on their backs. Sores of persons arrived at Por cupine without food, and unable to buy any. The prices of beans, bacon and other staples were fabulous, and.

It was Im possible to send provisions Into the camp, Famine followed, and the suf ferings of the prospectors were fright ful. According to McLean, the gold seekers commandeered all supplies, so that they might be distributed equally. Even this failed to save life, and McLean declared that more than 20 persons had dlod In the camp and that more than 100 were dying when he left. At that time there was no prospect of relief, and McLean be lloves that scores of others have suc cumbed to the hardship and hunger. McLean, who has mined In Auwtra 11a, South Africa, Alaska and Cali fornia, declared that no gold rush con tains the stories of suffering that the Porcupine rush will reveal when tho details become' known.
