SYDNEY lllliilll [li

(Sydney Record 8th.)

At a meeting of the Board of Trade held in the Board Rooms last. cveningit was unanimously decided that the Board should support the P. E. Island Tunnel scheme, which is at present receiving the attention of the Dominion Government nt the instance ofthe people of the Island Province.

Sandford Shaver, Vice-President of thr- Board, was in the chair, and a cfansider able number of members were present.

A feature of the meeting was the sd-

drese of Capt. Read, arepresentative of the Island, who had _iusttreturned from Ottawa, where he, with others had been interviewing the government with regard to the proposed tunnel.

Mr. Shaver, in opening the meeting, ex- plained the object of its being called and referred at some length to the manner in which the construction of the proposed tunnel atlected Sydney. He pointed out that there was ascareity ofditferent kinds of produce in Sydney at the' present time and said that if communication with P. E. island, our present source of supply was kept up all winter there would be no occasion forthis scarcity nor for the high pri(-es which are prevailing. He ru-aked the secretary to rcad the resolution with regard to the matter which would be placed before the meeting, and which is as follows:

“\\'hereas, steamship communication

with P. E. Island ia inadequate to cope with natural conditions in the North

umberlnnd Straits during more or less

of thc winter; and

“\\'licrcas, freight irafllc is entirely

cut oil' at times, while mails are only conveyed with great irregularity, and passengers with considerable danger and inconvenience by means of ice boats via the Cape route;

“And whereas, this interference with

mainland communication is a great loss to thc wholesale trade of the maritime provinces and a great injustice to P. E. Island;

“’l'hercforc resolved, that thc Sydney

Board of Trade favors thc idea of u tun- nel ns the only pcrmnnz-nt and satisfuctcy solution of this difiicult question, and urges upon the Dominion government the necessity of at once adopting some plan to attain this object;

“And further resolved, that it be urged

to provide a better ice-breaking steamer as soon as possible until such time as the tunnel can he built."

The resolution was moved by T. G.

Conig, and seconded by J. Dolan, but, beforeit was put to the meeting, the chairman called upon Capt Reid, who, by the way, is vice president ofthe maritime board of trade, for a few remarks.

Capt. Read spoke at length after

which the motion was unanimously carried.
