The Rev. A. A. Mackenzie, of St. Ste- phen, N. B., and a native ot West River, Lot 65, visited Ottawa afew weeks ago.

CENTRAL AMERICAN TRADE,

Propos:l to Si bsidize a Pacific steamship Lin: —‘ apt, Bert Yates Heard From,

Captain Yate-—wel] known in this city us Captain Bert Yates,a stonof A. H Ya'es, Esq ,—is in Ottawa, representing F.C. Davidze & Co., of Victoria, B. C., forthe purpose of securing an annual gran’ fer a line of steamships io ply be- tween, Canadian western portsand Mexican and Central American ports. The subsidy desired is $100,000 a year for four years, Capt. Yates states that in the matter of machinery and agricultural implements and in cotton there is in Central and Sonth America wide field for Canadian enter- prise. He quotes fizures showing that the imports of Canadian cotton into China amounted :0 $549,060, and thought that Canada might fairly compete in this art- icle in the Central American States. A large commercial trade was to be done, but considerable difficulties would have to be overcome by any company undertaking the business, Last summer the merchants of British Cclumbia advocated the estab - lishing of such a trade, and petitioned the Minister of Trade and Commerce to that effect, when he was in the Province. Acting on this suggestion Davidge & Co. propose to put on two steamers to make tweive round tripsduring the year. The British Columbia Board «f Trade has endorsed the plan, and since that time the Winnipeg board have also signified their approval. Captain Yates seems to be ina fair way to achieve success in the venture. In any case, his old friends in Charlottetown wiil be glad to hear that he is ‘on deck.”
