Premier Yuan Shi Kai in an official, statement to-day sald he refuses (o actept the republic. The refusal of Premier Yuan Shi the communication anghal after the meeting of the peace conference be- tween the delegates of the imperial government and the revolutionary leaders held there yesterday, proved a great surprise. As issued after the session of the confer- ence by Tang Shan Kai replying to Wu Hang, leader of the revolutionary delegates, who has presented the case in favour of a republic, expressed his readiness to accept Dr. Wu Tang Hang s views but that the matter was so important he must first communt- cate with Pekin Kai to reply to the made to him from WHAT THE PAST HAS DONE, WILL THE FUTURE REPEAT? The Close of 1911 Sees the Hat Second in the Building World of the Dominion and Giving the First City a Tight Race down the Home Stretch What About 1912? The present year which is just draw- ing to a close, has witnessed won- derful advancement in the city along bullding lines, much more so than ever before In the history of the city. Dominion building statistics issued a short time ago, rated Medicine Hat as the second city in the: Dominion nthe baNiding permits of the year; Guelph was given first place. The statistics for the present month are not available a yet, but it is a safe bet that Guelph will have to hustle or Medicine Hat will crowd it out of first place and lead all of Canadac Resides the erection of numerous new, beautiful and commodious resi- dences, the year has seen the fall of a few old land marks to make way for commodious offices and store buildings. Fora visitor to walk through the city now he cannot but help being struck with the superior architecture and quality of the new buildings that are replacing the old. + A glance down the list of some of the large buildings erected In 1911 presents an array of valuable bulld- ings that would excite the envy of citles three times as large as the Hat: Becker Block, -mperial Bank building. Beverage s Furniture Store, Bank of Montreal. Monarch Theatre building, , P. R. Freigat Shed Linseed Mills, Hutchinson's Leather Store. Rolling Mills, Alberta Foundry. The first mentioned building which was one of four that has been com- pleted in the last month, has sup- plied a long felt want. Besides sup- plying two commodious stores, It has given another lodge room and a dance hall. The Imperial Bank building, erect- ed by the Medicine Hat Printing and Publishing Co., besides housing a new banking institution in the clty, hag also filled a want in the matter of business offices. Reverage s Furniture store, on of the best in the Dominion, will al- ways prove an attraction to visitors, ag its striking front cannot but help but attract the eyes of visitors. The Bank of Montreal bullding is one of the finest bank buildings in lthe- wast, The interior decorations and furnishings are handsome. The Monarch Theatre, which is to open tonight, will provide Medicine Hat with one of the finest nickelo- diems in the west, Ready s pool room. and cigar store will occupy the other half of the store. The C. P. R. freight sheds, which were completed some four months ago filleda long felt want, The accom- modations in the old shed were too congested. The Litiseed Mill also opened this month and is one of the few bufldings of ts kind In the Dominfon. Hutchinson's leather store is about completed The Rolling Mills and Alberta Foundry, both plants which opened here during the past year, are already considering enlarging their plants. Besides these there have been many other improvements to buildings. The Cosmopolitan and Alberta Hotels, both have made big improvements to thelr hostelries, while the C. P. R. station has been increased to double ts size, On the whole the year has been one of endless activity in the building line, one that will keep any other city go- fng to equal and one that, judging from the present outlook, will be dup- Mented next year, the statement ties.

WILL LOOK INTO (W. A. P. Dispaten) Ottawa, Dec, 21. The government has decided to conduct thorough in- vestigation into the Various depart metits of the public service. Mr. Morine is regarded as pecu- Uarly well fitted for the work of in- vestigation by reason of hls long ox- perience in the administrative af- fairs of Newfoundland and of his high standing at the bar. The Cassels in- quiry which followed, had to do only with the work-of the marine depart- ment. The probability is that the ne com- sion will take up afd compiete the work hegun-by the other commission whose hands were tied by the or- ders in council appointing them.
