THOROLD, Ont., Sept. 8.-What is
thought to have been a second mighty cataract of Niagara has been discov- ered nt Thorold by Doheny, Quinlan and Robertson, contractors on section 3 ol' the new Welland ship canal. After excavating some twenty feet of solid clay near thc upper end ol` this section the rock bed was found to be very smooth, and further down a series of steps in the rock have been found to be smooth on the edges also and well worn.
The edge of tho cataract so far un-
covered begins xlt the eastern abut- lllent of the new Niagara, Sl.. Cathar- ines and Toronto railway bridge, and runs in n southwesterly direction for xl distance of about 400 feet. This be- ing. the end of the excavation does not permit further exploration.
The first fall is inthe form of steps
for a distance of thirty feet, with a total drop rn” twenty-five feet. The depth of the next i'all cannot be de- termined yet, but the excavating shows that it likely was a perpendic- uln_r fall for an unknown distance.
Altogether it gives the appearance
oi an immense river which connected Lake Erie and Lake Ontario some thousands of years ago, the exact age being unknown. _.I

OTTAWA, Sept. 10.-The view of
the government is that while it had a right to advise ratification on behalf of Canada, its duty in view of the impotrance of this treaty was to sub- mit it first to parliament for approval, said Hon. N. Wrltowell. At the out- set tho president of the privy council pointed out tllat some confusion had arisen in regard to procedure, inciden- tal to the ratification of the compact. Ratification was an executive :lct of the sovereign, he explained. Parlia- metn was not being asked to ratify the treaty. Great Britain had not lat- ifled the treaty although the British parliament had approved of its tel-'ns by passing legislation autllorlzin_.: the government to erecute them.

prcscntaiives of the Veterans say, the government efforts have been confin- ed to land settlement and to vocation- al training for disabled men and for those who joined the army before they zlttlllned nlllilary age. These efforts, they contend, do not afford uid to many nlen who are not fitted to engage in farming and are not eligible i`or vocational training.
Tile Veterans have interviewed
members of the cabinet, and many members ol’ parliament, and will meet the Prime Minister on Saturday. Mem- bers ot` parliament are sympathetic with the Veterans' request, but the majority believe that a further sub- stantial gratuity for every soldier would be beyond the present financial resources of the country.
