Some Facts About Canada
That Disturb Popular
Fiction.
By B. C. FORBES.
NEW YORK, June 21. Canada struck
tnc as a new and enlarged edition of
Scotland. One of the first store signs ,T
read in Toronto was: “Come awa’ in.”
The first cabman I hailed had recently
migrated from “Glesga.” which, being in
terpreted, means Glasgow. The first bank
president 1 spoke to told me he had
brought over three hundred of Scottish
youths within the lasi few years, as ho
found they made excellent bank clerks.
On all sides there wore shingles bearing
unadulterated Scottish names. Then,
when traveling through the agricultural
regions. 1 was struck by the number of
Scotchmen on the farms. The language
of middle Canada has a distinctly Scot
tish flavor, while farther west sturdy
youths from “the land o’ cakes” are ar
riving by thousands to till the* virgin soil.

I We are constantly told in the United '
States that the Canadian railroads arc j
models, that they give the country serv- '
ice unapproached here, and that they
are the pride of the Dominion. It was.
therefore, a shock to learn from the lips
of shippers, especially in eastern Canada,
that it is extremely difficult to get prompt
delivery of goods. Roth the Canadian
Pacific and the Grand Trunk, it is com
plained.* are short of equipment. Ener
getic as the roads have been yes. they
are by no means asleep they have nut
grown quite as rapidly as the country's
agricultural and industrial activities.
Railroad congestion is likely to be rather
sevcm across the border before 1912 ends
The Canadian Pacific has just ordered
300 locomotives and 12.500 freight cars,
at a total cost of almost $20,000,000. And
$70,000,000 is to be spent in double-trark
ing the road through the Rockies. The
company should offer a premium f<»r ’•
prompt delivery of the new equipment
Every engine and every car is needed.
The Grand Trunk, too. I understand, has
far too few powerful engines.
Canadian railroads are more self-con
tained, so to speak, than American ones
if one may allowed for convenience
to use the word “American" as covering
■only the United Stales, a practice equiv
alent to calling Great Britain “England."
The Canadian roads, for example, run
their own express companies and their
own hotels at various centers, while the
U. P. R. has an enormous fleet of steam
ships a fleet not matched by any Ameri
can railroad. All this is sometimes held
up against the United States lines. But
u y opinion is that our own railroad com
•anies have bit off quite as much as the\
<an comfortably chew. Let the govern
ment give us a comprehensive ’parcels
post system, and. lot trie express compa
nies be brought to their senses, and the
people will have no occasion to clamor
for railroad ownership of the express
business. Nor is there urgent necessity
lor the railroads going into hotel keeping
on an elaborate scale. Inn keeping and
transportation arc two distinct vocations.
<-nd. save in exceptional cases, the Ameri
can roads are wise to ‘leave the former
alone shoemakers should stick to their
lasts. The newest and finest accomplish
ment in the way of railroad hotel build
ing in Canada is the Chateau Laurier, a
$2,000,000 edifice opened this month by the
Grand Trunk at Ottawa. The establish
ment is worthy of the Dominion capital.
Manager Bergmann was able to show me
a royal suite and a bridal suite as at
tractive. if not so gorgeous, as anything
in New York, while the cuisine and the
service do not suffer by comparison with
the best wc can offer.
• ■ •
.But are the Canadian roads well ad
vised in erecting palaces as stations? <>f
course, after inspecting our local Penn
sylvania and New York Central stations,
we can not with propriety throw stones
at our Northern neighbors. Still, the
Grand Trunk's new station at Ottawa did
appear too expensive a structure even for
the capital. To build a palace costing <1
believe) something like $1,000,000 for a
town of 100.000 population is surely an
investmen; of questionable wisdom. At •
per cent the toll levied upon the people »s
£60.000 per annum, or more than SI,OOO n !
week, ex lusive of the necessarily heavy
upkeep charges. Naturally, the towns
folk are proud of their new station ai.<

for another sumptuous building for
oindar purpose, hut when It was pointer
nut that each ton of freight hauled h.P

The New Orleans Times-Democrat says:
Everything seemed to favor the bearish

gathered force with the progress of the
early session. Before the opening the tal
ent had an acreage decrease of only .54
of 1 per cent, promulgated by a leading
statistical authority. Then came word
from a big operator, after a visit to
Texas, he felt convinced, that state would
make 6.000.000 bales this year. At this
stage of the proceedings somebody whis

transfer of tender cotton from Galveston
to New Orleans and the desperate des

bulletin showed that the Eclid had
brought 254 bales, and the Elmonte 200
bales. Immediately wires sent out tip

ON GOOD BUYING
Commission Houses and Spot I
Interests Best Purchasers of
Fleecy Staple.
NEW YORK, June 20 -The cotton mar
ket on the opening showed a net loss
from yesterday’s final of 5 to 11 points.
Liverpool cables came anout as expected,
with a good business in spot cotton. The
weather conditions reported splendid;
cloudy to cool in the Atlantic districts,
with the same scattered light showers in
the western half. The early trading was
moderate.
The bear pressure on the opening was
<lue to the favorable weather conditions
over the belt. This caused the sharp
decline shown on the opening. Shortly
after the opening heavy buying began to
set in by commission houses who usually
represent the uptown crowd and the Bell
interest. This buying caused prices to
take a jump covering the entire decline
made on the opening, with prices 5 to
14 points higher than the quotations.
At the close the market steady
with prices unchanged to 2 points under
yesterday’s final.

HAYWARD A CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. June 20. Il was
feared that the cool wave might bring
extensive rains to the Atlantics, but de
velopments overnight were most favora
ble While there were further light show
rrs in the western states, there was no
rain at all in the eastern half of the belt.
Indications are for generally fair weather
except possibly some precipitation along
the Atlantic coast. It will get warmer
over the western and north central belt
as required, and weather prospects are
ideal.
Liverpool was decidedly easier. Our
I market opened abnit 5 points lower, with
| only small seUipg. as the opinion prevails
• that the strong long interest in New York
is yet so large that the market must be
supported. In fact, such defensive sup
port appeared and caused a rally’ to 11.63
for October. Pell Ar Uo. w’ere reported
strung buyers. Another supporting fac
tor was rhe anti<d pat ion of very’ bullish
comparisons of mill takings in tomorrow’s
visible statement as last year's takings
this week were only 109.000 bales. With
such a large crop as this season, we are
dealing with larger figures throughout.
I Howe' er, as all correspondence shows
that mills have bought largely for re
serve stocks, it is. therefore, quite prob
able that final statistics this season will
show the greatest difference between tak
ings and actual consumption, more so
than in any previous year.
| The into-sight for the week looks
around 35.000. against 31,591 bales last
i .ear,

NEW YORK. June 23. A ietnargic con
dition settled over the stock market’ at
the opening, leaders waiting to sea what
the outcome of the Republican national
convention in Chicago will be before un
dertaking speculative transactions on any
scale. Irregularity marked the quiet
trading which was carried on. I'nion Pa
cific reacted % from the high price of
168%: L'nlted States Steel common, after
touching Wednesday’s final, receded %.
Northern Pacific, Great Northern Railroad
and Brooklyn Rapid Transit lost fractions.
Canadian Pacific was % off. while Lehigh
Valley’s decline reached ’»
Tn the late forenoon heavy selling, said
to be Hie result of dissatisfaction with
the developments at the Republican con
vention. caused declines ranging from 1
to 2 points in many important'issues.
The selling was heaviest in steel and Le
high Valley, hut pressure was also ex
erted-againsl Union Paciflc and the cop
per stocks. I'.iterboro-Metropolitan was
exceptionally strong. The Wabash issues
showed a steady tone.
Reading opened % higher, but reacted.
The curb opened steady.
A firm tone prevailed in Americans and
in Canadian Pacific in London on small
transactions. English traders taking
their cue from Wall Street are waiting
for political developments.
