Veale, 154 York street, King- ston, yesterday exhibited a branch from ome of the apple trees in his arden, showing a remarkable var- ance of growth.

CHEESE FACTORY BURNED Fire of unknown origin totally de- stroyed the cheese factory at the vil- lage of Verona, 25 miles north of Kingston on Sunday. The factory was owned by Thomas A. Craig and will be rebuilt at once. Loss on the building, which was covered by in- surance is estimated at $5,000, while cheese valued at $1,200 was also de- stroyed, the latter loss being covered by insurance, COBOURG ON FAST TIME Daylight saving time became effec- tive at midnight Sunday, in Cobourg, but the fact that watches and clocks were moved an hour ahead during the night made little apparent dif- ference in the day's routine Monday. In factories and = stores, the new time found wide approval among the employees, who will be freed from their duties an hour ecarlier in the evenings, permitting them to partis cipate in Sports, etc. Householders look forward to an extra hour of daylight in the backyard garden. BANKER ALMOST ASPHYXIATED W. S. Holmes, manager of the Royal Bank at the village of Odessa, formerly of Ottawa, was almost asphyxiated by carbon monoxide gas when he was trying to fix a leak in the exhaust of his auto. He is still in a critical condition, The doors of the garage were open, but the wind apparently held the gas inside of the garage. Mr. Holmes was leaning over close to the engine, and if he had not been noticed when he was, there is a likelihbod that the accident would have proved fatal. YOUTH'S DEATH A MYSTERY The death: occurred very suddenly at Findlay Station, near Kingston, of Joseph Slater, aged 13, son of John Slater, under very, peculiar cir- cumstances. Attending doctors were unable to diagnose the case, and a postmortem has been ordered, It is feared the lad suffered from spinal meningitis, The boy was ill but a few hours, during which time he was in a state of coma. Previous to be- ing taken ill, he was in apparently good health, having just been riding a bicycle.

WRECKED CAR [5 ABANDONED Markers--No One is Injured Wiarton, June 11,--A mysteri- ous motor accident occurred early Sunday morning on the Centre Road about two miles north of Mar in the Township of Albe- marle. The occupants of the car have disappeared, as also haye the license plates of the car, leaving only the wrecked machine as ev- idence of the accident. There is no blood ahout the car or other evidence to show that any one was injured, hut whoever the oc- cupants were, they" undoubtedly had a miraculous escape, The road at this point runs along a gully about six feet deep on the opposite side of which is a pile of stones. The car must have been travelling at a terrific speed, for when it left the road it jumped over the gully, a distance of 12 feet, and on reaching thd stoné pile continued on its course, throwing rocks more than a foot in diameter from fits path before it came to a stop 30 feet from the road. Travellers who viewed the wreck say that it would be impos- sible for a car traveling at a speed of 25 or 30 mies an hour to land so far from the roadand with such terrific force, . Ope wheel of the car was com- pletely demolished and 'the tires of two other wheels were torn off. The housing and other working parts under the car were torn away, and the windshield broken.

Telephone 262--4 Lines to Central THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JUNE 12, 1928 ANE TANGLEIN WINDSOR ABOUT BELL C0. VOTING Directors Reverse First De- cision, Then Members Re- verse Directors Windsor, June 11.--The rank and file of the Border Chamber of Conrmerce overwhelmed opposition to a resolution asking the Demin- fon Government to pass legislation authorizing a full investigation into the business of the Bell Telephone Company and its subsidiaries. This decisi was reached after a maze of technical objections of. fered by George A. Hanrahan, President of the Chamber, and O. E. Fleming, K.C., had been swept aside by the persistence of Frank W. Wilson, K.C., M.P.P,, and Frank J. Mitchell, former Mayor of Wind- sor. The vote in favor of the re- solution was 25 to 2, with only the local managers of the Bell and Northern Electric Companies vot. ing "no." "Hoomerang" Thrown In objecting to the inquiry re- solution, which, last Friday, found the favor of a large majority of the Chamber's directors, only to be "left in abeyance' as a result of a second meeting held Tuesaay. Mr. Fleming declared the resolution could not he considered because the Chamber's constitution requir- ed one week's notice, with copies of the resolution mailed to each member, This contention in the end prov- ed a boomerang, for ex-Mayor Mit- chell pointed out that reconsidera- tion of the resolution was allowed at Tuesday's meeting of the direc- tors, although the necessary notice appeared to have not been given, When the former Mayor flung this fact in the face -of opponents of the resolution, there was a gen- eral demand for a ruling from President Hanrahan regarding the. legality of the second meeting of the directors, at which the resolu- tion was shelved and killed for the time being. The President de- clined to make a ruling, saying he would require time to study the procedure arguments advanced by ex-Mayor Mitchell. A Novel Situation "Then I contend, Mr. Chairman," hroke in Mr, Wilson, 'that you at least ought to allow the meeting to vote on the question, as to whether the resolution shall be dealt with, It is the first time I have ever heard of a Chairman re- fusing to make a ruling," Ex-Mayor Mitchell drew rounds of applause when he quoted from Bourinot's Parliamentary proece- dure, showing in the most conclu- sive manner that Tuesday's meet. ing of the directors was illegal in {every respect and that business Driver Also Removes, the] transacted there could not be con- sidered binding, : Dr. James Young, a director, ac- cused Mr. Fleming of "stalling" and attempted to "trample and choke* discussion on the resolu- tion, There was a warm passage-at- arms between ex-Mayor Mitchell and Mr. Fleming, when the last named declared the former Mayor was out of order, Mr. Fleming rose to speak, but was met with strenuous objections from the ex-Mayor, "You cannot speak,' asserted the ex-Mayor, "after a question has been asked the Chairman," "Then sit down," demanded Mr. Fleming. "I am up to sit you down," re- torted the ex-Mayor, glaring across the table at his interrupter, Hon. Dr. Raymond D. Morand at- tempted to unravel the procedure twist by calling for a suspension of the rule, which, Mr. Fleming contended, prevented the resolu- tion coming before the meeting. "Let us first have a ruling from the Chairman on the legality of last Tuesday's meeting," demand- ed Mr. Wilson. "As I see it, the Chairman is ruling that this meet- ing is not entitled to decide on the legality of that meeting. I am ap- pealing to the members from that ruling." "I will second the appeal," sald Dr. Young. "Mr. Fleming is just stalling." Chairman Hanrahan re- fused to put the vote on the ap- peal. He demanded the vote be taken on the motion to suspend tha rule. "It is" the first time in my ex- perience," said Mr. Wilson, "that I have ever heard a Chairman re- fuse to give a ruling." . "My ruling will be given at the proper time and place," returned the President. , Chuigsil "Thig bill may be dealt with at Ottawa tomorrow," warned Mr. Wilson, "I do mot see," declared Dr. Young, heatedly, "why the members of this Chamber should be stifled. That is what {is being done." Mr. Wilson finally consented to let the vote go on the motion to suspend the rule, i claimed the right to speak om it. "Who is going to suffer?" he de- manded, "by this reconsideration? Who is being taken by surprise? In what waz is any ome here in- terested in this bill?" The vote was taken, but ewsn this was not without a flurry, when Mr. Wilson challenged the Presi- dent's right to' ballot. Chairman Hanrahan claimed he had the right, but there were loud protests that the "Speaker of the House," could only give the casting vote. Thinty~ : Speech At the beginning of his 30-min- ute speech in support of the reso- lution, Mr. Wilson pointed out that the constitution of the Chamber advised the members to promote the economic, civic and social wel- fare of the people of the border 'wypicipalities.
