MxxDoaaLJ "Ilcliiunou. 1LT, ibefgrg

the ‘Royal. Conitiiispfoiglt qg have last week, witnessegWto s_ stunt]. ate the matters betel-red; In ti... brief were callqd. " - " .~ Mr. B. R. Holman, city, assist... of the Retail Merchants‘ Apsocm. tion, gave evidence to show the difference between the service ren-

' dared on the C.N.R. on the main

lLno and on the line between Sack- ville and P. E. island and on the island Itself. Going through on the limited train, one arrives at Sack. vills either on the Ocean Limited or "the Maritime Express, and, if u stranger, is directed to a tralii on sidetrnck, called “the Island tralp." This train is made up of second rate cars.

THE ClHtAlRtMAN (Sir Andrew R88 1311116811): When you say sec- ond rate cars what do you mean’! MR. HOLMAN: Cars are not new, or not as good cars as are in use on the main line generally, and we are part of the main line. When passengers Teave their Pullman. they naturally look for u Pullman or a chair car, or the same comfort that they are used to 0n the other parts of the road; and that they do not get. They have to go in a day coach. Then. arriving at Cape Tor- mentine, they transfer to the car ferry, and arriving on the tisland— THE CHAIRMAN: Eventually? Mill. IIOLIIIIA-N: Eventually is the W011i. yfl-‘i- T-hcy transfer to ari- other traiii composed of second class cars and day coaches. tSome- times they are all right audsome- times they are not.

THE CHAIRMAN: Why?

Mil. I-IOIMAN: Well, in certain trases I have found it in travelling tityscif. and others have told mo, they “"6 Ivtully lighted, for instance; oil lamps, antiquated, that way. THE CHAIRMAN: You say some- times they are all right?

MIR. IIIOLMAN: Sometimes they: are fairly I od coaches, and other days they e not. When they are (arowdctl, the passengers have to go Into, set-tint] class cars, people who have paid first cluss fares. THE (lHAIRMAlN: Do you menu that some of the coaches are gond and some are not?

MR. HOLMAN: Yes.

THE CHAIRMAN: .l thought It was some days good and some days bad.

LVTR. HOIIMAN: ‘Some days, if they are not crowded, yoti might get a good coach, -btit you never get the same comfort ns you get on other parts of the C.N.-‘R. You never get a chair car on this line. tior a Pullman of any kind. (Mr. Holman gave Instances of tourists who would not come tbuck to the Island aftcr once making the iiii- comfortable trip from Sackville to (‘liarlottettiwiiJ

THE CHAIIRIIIAN: Then from your own experience you would say that people are scared to come to t-he Island. because of the poor trauspnrtatitiii?

MR. HOLMAN: They are not scared tn come. ibut they will not come ibecause they cannot. get the comforts they are accustomed to when travelling in other ‘Provinces. THE CHAIRMAN: ‘You would not go so far as I bave_put it? MIR. HOLMAN: Yes. ti would- T-HE CHAIRMAN: Quite frankly, I am almost scared to come back. I-Iave you any other points you wish to bring out? _ lMR. l-IOLMAN: That is one of the most important points I wish to ibring out. To tbs perfectly lair

THE CHAIRMNN: Yell. d0 b9 fair to the railway; do not over- state the case at all: give us the other side of it.

satisfactory Service Between Sackville and . Charlottetown.

"he! by placing a cluib car or buf- fet cur which runs between Saint John and Tornientine. , This has been on for two or threeyears, but F‘ "my runs to Cape Tormeutiuc, fllid that during the summer months.

'I‘HE CHAIRMAN: Where would you expect It to run?

Mrnl-IOIJMAN: To Charlottetown.

THE CHAIRMAN: ‘But there is a buffet outboard the boat?

MR. Il-OLMAN: But the point I am bringing out is that there is no first class accommodation between Borden and Charlottetown any time during the year. If this buf- fet car ran to Charlottetown we would have o. fairly satisfactory service, which we are not getting. It stops at Cape Tormantine and waits there until the train comes back in the morning.

THE CHAIRMAN: You have that bullet service right from Saint John to Borden.

MiR. HIOLMAN: We want it to Charlottetown

'i‘H.l<l CHAIRMAN: But you have it right to Borden,

MR. HOLMAN: We have it to Calls Torntentirie.

Til-lid CHAIRMAN: You have It no board tlic boat.

MR. HOLMAN: say dlorden.

'I‘HI'J CHAIRMAN: You have It to Borden. .Is not that enough? MR. HOLMAN: N0, sir. We want that service to Charlottetown. Tllld CHAIRMAN: How lougdoes ll 111k" 10 k0 from Hordcii to Char- lottetowii?

uiii. IIOLMAN: a little over t»... hours. 'I‘liat is the great coiii- plaint.

Till‘) CHAIRMAN: You are not reprcscntiiig this to be the great complaint now.

JIIRAHOIJMAN: It is quite one of the most important complaints l have to make. I am not making this personally, but from observa- tions and the complaints of others.

THE Cit-AIRMAN: tlf you had u choice ‘between u ibuffet car and a parlor car, which would you pre- fer‘!

. HOLMNN: Of course, the

. cur would answer two pur- while the parlor car would iiiswci" mic. A chair car at

= dcn. -f.ct\v.-r>n Borden and Char-

loitcttiwn, would hc satisfactory.

TIIIE CHAIRMAN: Ill fact, you want- an up-to-tlate train?

MR. HOLMAN: We want the same service that the other pro- vinces are getting.

THE CHAIRMAN: Any other point?

MIR. HOIAVIAN: Iiégurding auto- mobiles; u great malty tourists are coming to t_his Province by motor car. And while conditions ltave been improved somewhat In the last couple of years . . .

THE ClHAiRMAN: ‘They have been improved. have they?

MR. I~i()'l.l\iAN: improved to what they wcre. They are not at all satisfactory. 'I‘hey have been improved a great deal over previ- oua years, fbut there seems to be u a grout deal of dissatisfaction about the delay that isipused. -l do not ktiow just how this can be over- come; I simply mention It.

Tl-IE CHAIRMAN: What is the delay? You see, if I had not trav- oiled over this route I would not understand what you tnean.

MR. HOLMAN: ‘Then you under- stand the delay.

THE tCl-IAIRIMAN: I do, but d want it clear on the notes; It must b6 made clear to people who may not have trifvelled over it.

MR. HOLMAIN: It seems to ins- this is only a suggestion from a number of nien who have looked this over-that the pier should be widened.

THIS. CHAIRMAN: Are Y1! speaking as an engineer?

MR. HOIJMANZ No.

THE CHAIRMAN: Have you any engineering knowledge?

MR. HOLMAIN: None whatever.

THE CHAIRMAN: Are You speak- ing on ibehalf of people who hays?

MR. HOLMAN: No. d am speak- ing on behalf of people who ‘have had the experience of crossing there and are hoping for some rem- edy.

THE CHAIRMAN: We are hav- ing an expert engineer witness, are we not’! I think we had better leave that to them. There is no use In amateurs talking about what might be done with a pier. You and I are amateurs in that.

MR. HOLMAN: Certainly, tbut I want to see the improvement.

THE CHAIRMAN: Yes. but I want an engineer to tell us what is wrong, and how It can be iniprov-

delay.

MR. HOLMA-N: When you coma off the rboat you are shunted on a sidetrack, and it is usually half to three quarters of an hour before you get up to the main unloading point and get under way. Why there is this delay is a matter for raiiwayuien.

THE CHAIRMAN: Does that mean that it takes from one-half to three-quarters of an hour in getting off the ‘boat’! ,,

HOLMAN: Yes, sir. It is necessary for you to the there half an hour Ibefore the bout sails, and it usually takes half an hour to get off the boat.

THtE CHAIIRIMAN: How long does it take to do the passage? A forty minute crossing?

MIR. HOLMAN: Atbout forty min- utes, yes.

THE CHAIRMAN: That is two and a half hours altogether?

Mil. IIOLMAN: Yes. ‘

THE CHAIRMAN: It took us al- most three hours yesterday.

MIR. HOIIMANZ Yes, I am con- servative, I tiiiiik, In my statement.

-Comniissiouei' McMillan asked Mr. Holman, with reference to the ibuffet cur, whether it was the ques- tion of food that lie was emphasiz-

g.

MR. HOLMAN: 0h, no, but you have the comfort of the parlor car.

COMMISSIONER MacMIULAN: How many is that buffet car able to accommodate? '

MIR. l-TOIJMAN: Iwould judge about twenty; perhaps more.

COMMISSIONER MacMlIiLAN: Do you wish to emphasize the In-_ couveuience of a change from a Pullman car at Sackville or tMonc- ton, to one of these second rate cars?

MR. HOUMAN: That Is exactly the point. '

COMMISSIONER lVluttll/IIUIJAN: Aud then DIN! getting out of that car at Tornientitia and getting on the ‘boat, getting off the boat again ut Borden, and getting on another sccoiitl rate car?

MR. HOLMA/N: That is It exact-

COMMISS-IO-NER MacMILLAN: The =question of food is not the difficulty?

MR. IHOLMAN: Oh. no; I sug- gested a chair car on the Island.

COMMISSIONER MacM-IDLAN: You could accommodate more, per- liaps.

THE CHAIRMAN: You said a. few minutes ago that if you had

prefer the buffet car.

JVIIR. IIOLMAN: I was speaking personally. (The other car would certainly accommodate more peo- plo. THE CHAIRMAN: The evidence is that personally you prefer the buffet ¢ar,'1but the general public prefer the other?

MR. HOLMAN: Yes; I Imagine there would ‘be more seats fortthem.

Mr. W. C. S. McLure, M.L.A.,‘gave evidence as a trader. corroborating the statements of iMr. Holman with regard to present accommodation on the railway.

T-I-IE CHAIRMAN: tDo you think that these railway facilities scare peope from coming tbsck to the Isiah . or discourage them from coming iback?

iMr. iMcLUIRE: Well, it makes an unfair showing for Prince Edward Island. When leaving the Maritime Express or the Ocean Limited at ‘Sackville it creates the impression in any traveller's mind» that he is immediately leaving the main line and going to a side line train, ora very amateur local train.

THE CHAIRMAN: In fact. you are leaving the main line?

MR. McLUR-E: You are, ibut we should not be leaving the main lino accommodation. We should have ‘main line accommomtion for the traveller just the some as on the main line; that Is, the accommodts tioii of good cars for the travelling public. A month ago, on coming out of the Maritime Express at Snckville, there was quite a. num- ber of passenger, and the dlrst class accommodat on on the island train was not nearly aufllcient to accommodate the tflrst class pas- sengers. t

THE CHAIRMAN: Is it n local tralii from tSackville to Torlnantioe?

.M-R. MCIJUREZ A local Iain, I would judge. '-

THE CHAIIRMAN: It shill from Sackvlile and‘ rand-regularly -be-

MR. hlcLURE: You. u

THE CHAIRMAN: Those passen gers who could not‘ get the first class accommodation for which they had paid—.—dld theymake any particular fuss? .

MR. McDURE: Well. don't think they made any fuss a the time. but they talked about it, and say. "We are up against poor accommo- ilfltinli."

THE CHAIRMAN: It gives them

your choice of the two, you would‘

MR. McLURE: Absolutely.

THE CHAIRMAN: It is tho first impression and the last? -

iMR- McliUItE: lt seems to be the last in many cases. Thea again the inconvenience t'or people m". eilini! with children, especially on the late train coming to the Island. Lady passengers with chiI-l dreu 1181/6 lo make a change ut Sackvilie, tiieii again at Toruientiue and again at Borden.

THE (fHAIiRMAN: These last two cannot be avoided, can they?‘

MR. Mciulillla‘: No, except by having the same accommodation, a through buffet or sleeper cur from Suckviile to Charlottetown.

THE CHAIRMAN: I think they might as well be up and looking Bllwul 1116111. as -lyiug down and Woullerllli; w at is happening. Are you auggi-stlig that they would be‘

a sleeping our?

."lIl’i"

MR. McLIJRE: ‘No.1 do not tblukl so.

THE CHAIRMAN: You did not‘ happen to ‘be travelling on that day?

MR. tMcLURE: No.

THE CHAIIRMAN: That is what happened yesterday. I suppose lu some measure it would depend upon the amount or traffic? '

Mil. McLURE: Yes; rbul. curt auto traffic is increasing very greatly. 1

THE CHAIRMAN; Is the-re any Impression on the minds of those whu use automobiles that they are being discouraged from transport- ing their autBs to the island?

MR. ilk-LURE: No, I cannot gay that there is that impressiouj i have not Iteard it. -

rm: CHAIRMAN: What‘ is thel remedy you would suggest for all this? '- '

tun. tMc-LUJIE: Witii 'i"ngard ml

MR. Mc-IIIIRIJ: Well, It is more, comfortable on the maiii line. Why wouldn't it be on our litre?

THE ifilAllllMAN: It is ‘better to see that you are not being thrown of! the liuc thauto lie thinking you are being llirmvti oft’ it. i

MR. IIIcLURE: With the Pullq man there would be no change at‘ ‘Suckvllli: uud you would be carried T15111- lllfflllirli and still have the impression that you were on the main line.

THE CHAIRMAN: Until you got to Tormeutine, and then you would be rudely awakened.

MR. hIcLI/"IIE: Well, if the car were taken right over on the boat you, should not be.

THE CHAIRMAN: That Is what you ask for, a through train right to Charlottetown?

lMR. McLURE: Yes, right through

THE CHAIRMAN: D0 you think there is a general demand for that?

lMfR. McLURE: There seems to lie a sufllciciit demand.

THE CHAIRMAN: What time of the day or night is this?

MiR. Mt-LURE: The late train is.’ due in Charlottetown at 10.50. The other train is duc at 630.

'I‘-HE OHAIILVIAN: Are these the only two trains?

MR. iMcLliltid: The only two coming from the bout.

THE CHAIRMAN: What do you want a slcctiing car on these trains for?

MR. McldlRE: A Pullman car; a sleeping cur you would require the next morning, for accoininotlatltiu. We have to leave here at 6.45 In the morning.

THE ‘CHAIRMAN: I am probab- ly not understanding the term sleeping cur.

MR. McLIiItE: Well, you might say a chair car; any other accum- modatlcn lit-ttcr than the ordinary coach. ,

THE CHAIRMAN: As I under- stand it. this evidence‘ is dircctctl to assure us that the tourist traf- fic is affects-d because of the poor faciliflés afforded you in the mat- ter of transportation?

JVIR. MrLURE: Yes.

THETHAIIRMAN: Within your experience. do you say it is a fact that tourists are discouraged —to put it no stronger than that-p-vfrom coming to the Island, ibecause of these transportation arrangements?

MR. McLIUIRR: Yes. I have known trtflseveral cases where oom- plaints have ‘been matte to that effect.

THE CHAIRMNN: And even though they may not he discourag- ed from coming, even though they

transportation the remedy ishould, like to see is accommodation equal to that which we get on the regular, C. N. It. tritins, and make us part of the through train system from Montreal, giving us tiie sunie tic- coinmodatiou. _

THE CHAIRMAN: You do not know whether that is practical or not‘! Is there anything, for in» stance, about the height of the cut" that can be taken over on the! boats’!

MR. McLUlRE: I could not say. .

THE CHAIRMAN: Do you repre- sent the Automobile Association?

rMR. McLURE: No.

THE CHAIRMAN: Do you hap- pen to know it’ the Island has ever thought It worth while to put a practical engineer on this problen1,| to make a case for them’!

MR. McLURE: No.

THE CHAIRMAN: So far as you

to make their representations to tile Itaiiway? Mill. McIJURE: So far as I IITIOWI
