Drawing to a Close.

finishing bis campaign in the east
the stormiest political contest ever
vva^cr in Canada is nearing the
end.
Eie<'tlon day next Monday is
looked forward to by the opposing
parties as perhaps the most momen-
tous in the history of Canada.
The one great issue raised during
the campaign between the Liberals
and the exponents of union govern-
ment is conscription Bir Wilfred
io his manifesto laeued at the be-
ginning of the campaign opposed se-
lective conscription and declared
himself and his party in favor of a
referendum on conscription and a
return to the volunteer system of cn-
Hstrnents.
The union government headed by
sir Robert Borden and represented
Ly a cabinet composed of both Lib-
erals and Conservatives stands
squarely upon the administration of
the military service act and a "win
the war” platform calling fur imme-
diate strengthening of overseas
forces.
According to Sir John Willison a
Toronto editor. Laurier's principal
support will come from the east and
Borden's from the west.
Under the term of the military
election bill the franchise is extended

HALIFAX OFFICIALS
SILENT ON ARREST
OF SUSPECTED SPY
Helmsman of Relief Ship
Found to Be Shamming In-
juries in Hospital.
HALIFAX N. S.. Dee. 14.—An-
i.ouncemcnt that John Johansen
helmsman of the Imo the Belgian
nlief ship had been arrested as a
G.rman agent and suspected of hex-
ing deliberately cun cd the collision
of the Imo with the munition
steamer Mont Blanc which resulted
in the disastrous explosion here
.aused tremendous excitement to-
day.
Military authorities to whom no
was turned over foliowing his arrest
at a hospital where he had been
under treatment refused today to
make any comment. It is known tha.
he is being carefully guarded.
One of the nurses at the hospital
a young woman from New York
whose name was not revealed no-
ticed that Her pit! nt was acting
nueerlv and th.it he did not seem to
be wounded. Physicians examined the
man and the conclusion was
iciu hod that he was shamming ld-
mss. Later it was said. Johansen of-
iered a nurse s.’.o if she would go
. ut and buy him n newspaper the
I.ssumptlon being that he hid in
mind an attempt to escape in her
übsenve.
After that incident a nrilit iry
miard xvas placed «»n duty by his
icd. The provost guard was later
Milt for and Johansen was locoed
up.
In connection with the arrest the
wildest spy rumors heard here since
the war began were spread broaii-
< ast. These cuiniinated in a report
tluft eight Germans had n shot at
sunrise. Military and naval authori-
ties declared that the shooting story
was absurd.
Another persistent story was that
;. secret code in German had been
found on Johansen and that a wire-
less station had Icon unearthed tn
llhe district destroyed by Ine after
the explosion. .1. t'. Bur. h ill coun-
sel lor the Imo. in the admiralty
hearing on the collision of the ves-
sels. said that the secret <s>de story
as fur as it eoncernevi Johansen was
without foundation Johansen. Mr.
iltinhall said had been living In the
' I’nited States ten years and as he
| was anxious to return to his old
: home in Norway he shipped on the
! Imo.

Supreme Court Justice Goff has
signed a temporary injunction
rertn.ining the commission for the
regulation of the sale of hemp an
organization created by the state of

Broadway from disposing of ware-
h«‘U?o receipts covering 11789 bales

posited in the Commercial Ware-

The order was granted on the ap-
'Ec'don of Clark Prentice McClure

alleges that he owns sisal hemp

mately at 53.0A0.0n0 which have
•eon confiscated without legal au-
thority by ino • fi ’K’.ant. Affidavits
to prove this bv i.^rsons Jiving in
Yucatan cannot be produced he de-
clares be .luse to do so would sub-
jec these persons almost certainly to

their lives.
Mr. M< linn obtained in Jersey Cltx
a warrant for the attachment of the
bo n t > in the Commercial Warehouses
The injunction is sought because he
ulDres the defendant is arranging
to obtain a loan from banks in this
<it_. on the warehouse receipts for
the hemp.
Mr. Molina came to the United

of commission from Yucatan in
