The steam er Manitoulin was not sent gut to- day, as she was to leave for North 'Shore points and Sault Ste. Marie tonight. The tug Saymo, with Captain Sinclair of Wiarton in charge, asain patrolled the waters of the Bay im the vicinity of the wreck, while there also were a number of men searching the shores all around the Bay for bod- ies of the missing sailors. Delay im Search The steamer was lost at 3 a.m. Saturday ,off Grifith's Island. 1t was not until Monday, two days later, that efforts were made to start a search for the missing ship. The Owen Sounud Transportation Company officials point out that there was ample reason for the de- lay. The ship was not om a regular scheduled trip. She was "running wild," as most ships do in the fall of the year, making trips wherever and whenever it is most comveni- ent. Leaving here om Thursday, the Manasoo should have arrived back in her home port from West Bay with her load of cattle on Sat- uurday. Quite often, however, the cattle are not ready for a ship when she arrives in an island port. Then, too a ship may lie in the lee of an island or sheltered bay during a "blow" for a period of 12 or even 24 hours. Her non-appearance on Sunday did not cause anxiety. Company officials here wired to Little Cur- rent for information. The reply stated that the Manasoo had left West Bay at noon on Saturday, one day . later than she actually left. The wire from the Current added that the telephone line to Manitow- aning was out of commission. With the assurance of the ship leaving West Bay on Saturday, she would have arrived in Owen Sound on Sunday under normal ecirecum- stances. Again it was believed the ship was in shelter and would show up on Monday. However, when Monday came and no Manasoo, officials here became alarmed. Wires were sent to Mani- towaning to Captain Norman Me- Kay, master of the Manitoulin, to search for the Manasoo on the Manitounlin's trip down. Efforts to locate tugs to search along Bruce Peninsula were heing made when the dread news that the Manasoo had foundered was flashed from the Manitoba. The five men who were rescu- ed on Monday afternoon from the life-raft from the steamer Mana- soo, and who were picked up by the steamer Manitoba when they were almost at the paint of exhaus- tion and suffering from exposure, are making excellent progress to- ward recovery, and in a short time will be able to be around as usual.

TO BE INVITED T0 RHINE PARLEYS France and Germany Anxious for Washington oo to e Berlin, Sept. 20.--The desire of France and Germany to induce the United States to participate im the forthcoming megotiations for evac- wation of the Rhineland is becom- ing increasingly important here. This desire, it is believed in re- liable quarters, will result in the exertion of pressure om Washing- ton to take am active part im the diplomatic exchanges and to send delegates to the two proposed com- missions for control of the Rhine Valley after military evacuation. The newspaper Zeitung last night said, "a final solution with- out the United States participating is unconceivable." Chancellor Mueller is anxious to straighten out the entire problem of reparations and evacuation and, it is continued, believes co-opera- tion on the part of the United United States is most desirable. Press comment indicates the final solution of the problem must be delayed. General Solution "The duty of the reparations commission is to prepare to make possible a general solution, to- gether with the United States, 1929," says the Zeitung Ammittag. The present political campaign in the United States is playing a role in the most complicated of European problems and the out- come of the presidential race vill to a certain extent be considered by the diplomats.. France is an- '2onditions handbrakes xious, however, to hasten the nego- tations because as 1930 hes Germany will be less to pay reparations ante-dating evacuation. Germany is equally amxious for swift action to fix the total repara- tions payments. Both countries. however, must wait the pleasure of the United States. One outcome of the Gemeva con- ferences will be that Europe will try to eliminate her own differ- ences and face Washington with a joint proposal after the elections, it is believed. ONTARIO ISSUES AUTO BRAKE RULES Toronto, Sept. 20.-- In accord- ance with an Act passed at the last session of the Ontario Legislature, the Department of Highways to- night issued regulations governing motor vehicle brakes. The new regulations for purpos- es of enforcement divide vehicles into two classes. Weight and the use to which a car is put are the factors of classification. In class "A" which includes all passcnger cars and some trucks, foot brakes must stop the car with- in 50 feet at 20 miles an hour on a dry level road. Under the same must stop the car within 75 feet. Class "B" includes vehicles over 6,000 lbs. gross weight designed for transportation of goods and all cars not in class "A". Foot and hand brakes when applied simul- tancously to this clas of ear must stop it within 50 feet or within 75 feet is applied separately. The new regulations ainy to unify brake regulations throughout the province which at present vary greatly in different localities, -- Jones' Real Estate Bargain List per month.
