DISPUTE OVER LABRADOR. ‘Wood Pulp Scarcity Brings Up Old Differences. St. John’s, \’N. F., March 10—Ap- plications made recently for timber lands in Labrador with a view to the manufacture. of pulp for. paper. mills have revived discussion in this colony of the dispute between Canada and Newfoundland as to jurisdiction over Labrador. For more than a century the bleak seacoast lying to the north- east of the province of Quebec: har been under the undisputed. control of Newfoundland, but the question’ . of how far inland this contral may be permitted to extend never has been settled. ' The Labrador coast is a base for the Newfoundland summer fisheries, i Its sparse settlements'are chiefly in- habited by settlers from this colony ‘who. depend “for the most part ‘on these ‘fishing operations for subsis- tence. ' Recent shown that the agitation for an at- tempt at settlement of the bbundary dispute results from the bellef of | many persons interested in relieving the present pulp and paper shortage in Canada and the United States that development - of Labrador resources would open a large new field for pulp manufasture. NEARLY ASPHYXIATED. \ Rouillard Near Death at Home On Beatty Street, . .Partially overcome by illuminating gas in the bedroom of his home at 14 Beatty ' street yesterday, Anthony Rouillard, aged about twenty-one years, had a narrow estape from death by asphyxiation yestegday. Timely discovery by members of the family and herojc trntment by Dr. E. S. Grace prevented a tragic ending. 2 There is every indication that near tragedy was purely accidental Members of the family heard moans from the bathroom, investigated and found Roulllard’s semi-conscious body on the floor. The small room was filled with gas from a widely-opened Jjet. It is belleved that wind blew out the gas flame, Rouillard was uncon- scious of ‘the danger unti} gas flooded the small room and rendered him powerless to shut-off.the deadly out- pour or open the windows. Members of the family gave first aid treatment until the arrival of medical aid. Ex- pectations are that the victim will re- cover shortly without i1l effects from his experience. ‘WEALTHY OIL MAN DEAD.
