Aa the result of a terrible explosion aboard the mnul- tion ship Mont Blanc, owned by. the Compagnie Generale Trans-Atlantique cdused through a collision in the harbor with the Norwegion steamer Imo, after 9 o'clock this morn- ing, large part of the north end of the city and along the waterfront is in ruins, and the loss of life is appal- ling. Betimates place the number of dead as exceeding 2,000. On one ship alone forty persons were killed. Thousands have been killed. The damage is enormous, and there is scarcely a window left in a building In the city. The crew of the Mont Blanc is safe and the pilot claims that the collision was due to confusion of signal .whistles: Halifax, Dec. 10, Revised figures in connection, with casualties resulting from the explosion here follows: Known dead 1,200. . Identified 00, Unaccounted for 2,000. Wounded 38,000, Homeless 25,000, Montreal, Dec. 10. The president, of the Bank of Montreal, Sir Vineent Meredith, has received a telegram from one of the bank's superintendents at Halifax, which sdys: Present situation is twd to three thousand dead, ng large num- bers of children, casualties, many blinded; 20,000 homeless and estimated damage 30,000,000. No trains run- ning. Every vehicle of every sort tom- andeered for public service. Streets darkened, no gas for cooking or ilum- inations; all hospitals overcrowded; relief pouring in from all sides, Or- ganization now being perfected. All Germans. Arrested Halifax, Dec, 10. Acting on Instruc- tions of the military authorities, Chief of Police Hanrahan has commenced a wholesale arrest of German residents in Halifax. There have been a num- ber of citizens of German birth who have been allowed full liberty and only required to report once a mopth, Six- teen have been placed under arrest and investigation by the military author- ities a few of them were released, Some are being held at the-county jail. No information has been given out as to the reasons for the arrests, and the authorities refuse to say if it was done through any evidence they had secured in regard to the explosion. - All the survivors of the Norwegian steamer Imo which collided with the French munition ship Mont. Blanc were made prisoners by the British naval authorities today, 1 Capt. Lamedoc, of the munition ship Mont Blanc, and Pilot Mackay, who were bringing -the v ssel in when it was rammed by the relief ship Imo, are to be placed under arrest, acting Chief of Police Hanrahan announced last night. Officers were sent out to get them and to hold them for the ad- miralty hearing, Hanrahan said. - Supreme Duty Halifax, Dec. 10- -An act of sup- reme duty was that of the 72nd bat- talion, of Ottawa, In charge of the magazine here. When the explosion occurred the first thought of every- body was if it will be the turn of the magazine next. If it had been de- tonated or fired It would have meant the end of Halifax and everybody in it. Anticipating the explosion of the magazine, thousands of people who had been rushed into the str ets on hearing the first roar from the Mont Blanc rushed to the open spaces and waited tremblingly. The area set on fire was on three sides of the magazine, and the heat from the blazing buildings was intense, The thing to do was to flood the ma - gazine, but this would take time. Lieut. Olmstead, the officer in charge, called for volunteers to Jump in the water and stand by until the work was completed, Every man in the battery volunteered. Not until all danger of the explosion of the magazine was over did they leave their posts to take part in the general rescue. work, SECOND GREAT STORM HAS STRUCK HALIFAX Halifax, N.S., Dec. 9. Halifax's cup of misery was filled last night when after two days of horror caused by the explosion and the blizzard the follow - ing day, making the rescue work al- most impossible, the temperature drop- ped ana a rain and wind storm broke ever the city. Experiences of the refugees, who un- Ble to secure accommodation in the in tents on the citadel hill and common, The wind blew the tents down in a number of cases, while the rain drenched the occupants.

Skipper s Brave Act e * The skipper of the ship sand the members of his crew were watching the fire on the Mont Blanc and nearly all were killed, when the explosion took Those who survived, knowing the nature of the cargo of their own vesel, and seeing it ablaze from the ship on fire, and also recognising that Halifax would be utterly destroyed if its cargo of munitions were ever ex began the hazardious work of placing possible. He cut the hawsers and the ship began to drift away on the tide. He then filled up the hose and played it on the fire. S Wortunately the flames were at- tacking a section of the ship -where they were easily accessible and owing to the captain s timely work were kept away from the munitions in the cargo holds. . Capt. Harrison stuck to his task un- til he could get assistance to complete- ly extinguish the. flames. The ship was then taken outside the danger zone. In addition to saving the city , from the effects of a second explosion, the captain apparently also saved her val- uable cargo,, while the ship, it is thought, beyond being badly strained and partially burned can soon be ren- dered fit for service again. Less successful, but not leas cour- ageous, was The action of Capt, Bren- nan, and the crew of the tug boat Stella Marie. Ordered by the .admir- alty authorities to try and draw the beached Mont Blanc tnto deep water to sink her, Capt. Brennan had begun his work when the explosion occurred, killing him and his crew and blowing ashore the torn fraginimts of the tiny vessel, gt; 1 The Stella Marie was towing two scows up the harbor when the collision between the Imo and the Mont Blanc occurred: He was signalled by the admiralcy .officials to drop the scows and go to the Mont Blanc, which was ablaze from stem to stern at the, time. Capt. Brennan lost no time, and fol- lowed, the French ship, which had been beached. He had got a rope aboard her when the explosion occurred. MAYORS OF STRICKEN PLACES MAKE -APPEAL Halifax, N.S., Dec. 7. Mayor Martin, of Halifax, and Mayor Williams, of Dartmouth, Issued the following ap- peal today: To the people of Canada. An ap- peal for help An appalling disaster has visited the old and historic city of Halifax and the town of Dartmouth, Its cause, and a general report of it, has been re- ported in the press, but its magnitude is not-yet known, even to ourselves j The damage to shipping tid the port's equipment is of a serious character ; windows and doors everywhere were shattered to pleces, and in many streets outside of the ruined districts houses were partly wrecked. But In the areas which, at close range, came under the full force of. the explosion, every building, of every class and des- cription, was completely destroyed, and the fire, In many cases, finished the work of the explosion. It is estimated that at least 1,500 dwellings and the contents have been wiped out of exis- tence, as many more partly destroyed, and from 15,000 to 20,000 persons ren- dered homeless, It is feared that as many as 2,000 persons have been killed, Thousands have been injured, and, in nearly all cases, the families in the devastated areas have been left penni- lews and destitute. All Poorer Classes The stricken district was occupied imost exclusively by the people of the industrial and poorer classes. For the present and immediate fut - ure, shelter and maintenance is being found for them in public buildings and private homes, but the season of the year renders it imperative that im- mediate steps shall be taken to begin the work of reoonstruction. For this purpose, we estimate, that from 20,- 000,000 to 25,000,000 will be required, and in the names of these stricken communities we send out this urgent appeal to the general public of Canada for immediate help. We have confidence that the citi- zens of our own town and province will not fail us in the hour of our distress, and we are sustained by an equally confident hope that our appeal to the other portions of. the Dominion will meet with a prompt and generous res- THE URGENT NEED - OF HOG-RAISING Addresses by W.

Mr. Stevens said that jhe was not one who belived that any good pur- pose was served by always painting the situation, in glowing colours, his mind trith was more desirable than unjuspffied optimism. He Stat d that all betrig would point to the present situation being a very critical one, and that this was particularly true with regard to the food situation.

Mr. Wood, who followed, apoke ably and convincingly. He said the present situation was a very serious one.

He pointed out that if the ulti- mate market of Alberta bogs and hog products is eastward, clearly the Cal- gary market price at avy given date should be rather less than t Vinni- peg, whereas, a8 a matter of fact, it had frequently been higher, The speaker explaincd, was due to the fact that the Toronto packers would bid sufficient on the Toronto market to hold the offerings for their own use (that is, to prevent them b ing ship- ped to United States points), and then make up any additional small quan- tity they might desire by buying on the Calgary market. He explained that to achieve their purpose they would, if necessary, bid up the Cal- gary market to a fictitious figure. He then, at some length, explained the position the other day on the Cal- gary market when there were no buy- ers,and assured hisaudiencethat while it was a regrettable incident, it was not, from the farmers point of view, as serious as some believed. What he desired farmers to bear in mind is that in spite of anything the buyers can do on the western Canadian mar- kets, there is always the Chicago mar- ket behind the scenes to protect the farmer. The explanation of this was that, if need be, the offerings of hogs at Calgary can be disposed of through Chicago, and. the worst the farmer could receive would be the Chicago price less the freight. Mr. Stevens pointe 1 out that a minimum price op hogs, a thing often asked for by far mers, was a question of such a dim- cult nature that no Government, as ponse, so that it will be found that these sorely affected people shall food, What Is Needed help. 8 as requested. oO k Halifax without charge.

He could only give farmers the benefit of his own firm conviction that hog prices would follow the natural trend of the coarse grain pricon, and that no man need be afraid that the rais- ing of swine would be an unprofitable venture. Mr. Stevens then spoke as to what the consumers could do for their cour- try and the allied cause in the matter of conserving for shipment those por- tions of the hog most urgently needed for the army in the field, and the peoples of Britain, France, and Italy. He explained that the bacon portions of the hog were most suitable for cur- ing and shipment as all bone was re and they were virtually one per cent. food. He asked stance, that the Calgary market for ever, the different countries, Mr. plained that owing to the difficulty Mr. Patterson, or any of the officers, of sparing ships, only those on the would be glad to recelve these photos, American continents could really be or they could pe left at the Advocate considered.

Mr. Wood said that he wis fully alive to the fact that the Red Deer district is not a wheat raising one as indeed is equally true of his own district of Carstairs. Under these circumstances he certainly could not urge farmers to place large acreages into wheat. Some, however, possessed fleids that would raise wheat in the usual way, and he certainly would suggest such cases that wheat be sown, not only for the profit in wheat crops at the present time, but for te good of In other words, he justi- fied farmers taking a ttle gamble in raising wheat where there seemed a reasonable chance of success. reason for this state of things, the Australi. the cause. things: Fighting men, Food. - The speaker then ferent methods used by Germany; and the only possible method in a country. under the British flag, in achieving to a high art: that the people appar- to what they should do, and that offi- claldom reigned supreme.
