MORAL WAVE.
. PASSING OTEB MONTREAL. BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT. Received Oct. 29, 2.30 p.m. OTTAWA, Oct| 28. A moral wave is sweeping over Montreal following investigations which culminated in last weeks’ quadruple hanging. Civic reformers are seeking the head of the chief of police Belanger, who spent an uneasy forenoon in the witness stand before Judge Coderre, who. is conducting an inquiry. Belanger admitted borrowing sums ranging from £IOO to £SOO from relatives. Police detectives whom he promoted admitted that lie went into, sporting resorts for amusement the same as any ocher private citizen, but the Court declared it was impossible to distinguish between the two.—Sydney Sun Cables.
