Jan. 22—There was 501116 demand from the _United King il0lli and the continent for Canadian western barley and as the prices lid in odd cases were in linewith “porters views a little business was transacted but on the whole the market was quiet. The onl.y business of importance transacted |n the cash grain market was the gale of a few loads of No. 3 Canad- ian western barley a trthree cents per bushel over the Winnipeg May QpLlOII, c.i.f. Bay ports. The demand for oats was of a very limited character and the market for Ontario and Quebec grades was weaker at a decline of one cent per bushel. The volume of business transacted in the spring and winter wheat flour market was small put bricee were well main- tained. A moderate amount of buil- lllsss was done in most lines of niiiieed and prices steady. Trices were un hanged for standard grad- s; oi ro led oats. The egg market was weaker and prices for fresh and storage grades were reduced one cent per dozen. An easier feeling developed in the potato market and- prices declined twenty-five cents per, bag. The but- ter market was firmer and prices were marked up ‘A to 5i cent per pound.

EVAPORATINIG IOOAL- Our present frigid climate likely had something to do with a cool and daring criminal act by some thelf or thieves in this city last night. Two countrymen who- had just pur- chased a sleigh load of ooal from a local dealer left their horse and sleigh standing outside Brawdefs Grocery store on Queen Street at eight o'clock and went inside to make someUpurchases. They spent quite a while in conversation in the store and then prepared for their drive home. Imagine their surprise and dismay when on get- ting into their sleigh again they found that they had not a particle of coal left. After indulging in‘ some theories as to how their black diamonds had so mysteriously dis- appeared they decided that it was too late in the evening to make in- vestigations, and they left for their home poorer and wiser men. ‘FINE NEW RINK. -—The new closed in rink at Cornwall which has been erected by hhe people of Cornwall and surrounding districts is now completed. it has been in operation since the New Year and many are enjoying the skating.

MARINE COMMITTEE REPORT Mr. President and Gentlemen:- As Chairman, of the Marine Com- mitteeJ beg herewith to submit 131B following report: I am pleased to announce that a new era has evolved. or rather. l should say a very encouraging start has been made toward the re- instatement of the shipping trade of our port. During the past season, we have had calls from two lines of steam- ships, mnnecting our port with Montreal, Sydney, Cornerbrook and St. Johns. ‘Nfid, thereby re-estab- llshl-ng our trade with those im- portant centres at water borne freight rates (which have been sin- ce time immemorial the lowlest in existence.) The advantages derived throughout the country are obvious; our farmers have izeen enabled to dispose of large numbers of cattle during the summer ~e-a.son at ad- vantageous pr-‘ces. which lam told was an impossibility previous yBfl-N. Combined with thls. the sale of hay and oats has been augmented in- a substantial degree. Along with those improved conditions. we have the accommodation afforded our merchants to obtain their goods. some lines at least. at a pro-Will‘ freight rate. While the shipping in those particular channels is mer- ely in its llritial stages of‘ re-es- tablishment, to my mind ‘the advis- ory efforts of THJS BOARD should not at any time be relaxed. On the other hand we should feel encour- aged to lend, every effort possible to maintain ‘the service of those two Steamship lines. for develop- ing and reinstating our trade with various calling ports on their rout- During the past season one oft-en ‘ heard the remark passed by our citizens long the waterfront. that the wharves and harbor were ae- suming the'r pro-war appearance. Early last year representations were made to us by ‘The Working- marfle Association, to use our en- deavors in having more coal for Railway and other purposes freigh- tod by Srchooners. and we are pleased to abate that from two to three thousand tons more than pro vious years were brought to our port. by this mean-s. thereby giving employment to a. large number of wdrkingmen. We now come to perhaps the most or one of the most. imam‘!- ant branches of‘ our port develop- ment, and that is, the shipment of POTATOES. ‘It is gratifying to 811- nounce- that some 40,000 bags were shipped by Steamboat and schoon- er from this port last fall. This. l ooneldler, quite an achievement. crowning as it were. our efforts (in an advisory capacity) of some years_ procuring the necessary ac- commodations for this work. such as dredging, re-building wharf and providing loading facilities and while the process of loading went along fairly swift and smooth. the necessity of a frost-proof warehouse daily becomes more. manifest. Whe-n chartering a ship, the ship- per becomes liable to heavy demur- age if the cargo is not ready within a stipulated time. This i; also true regarding our Railway cans. and thle season (as you are aware) when shipment is being made is very un- certain regarding frost. consequent- ly if we -had frost-proof accommoda- tion on our pier for say_ twenty or thirty thousand bags. besides. in- Investment Bonds BUT-Ll) 1T1 i w!» sdeqnstdyaomiifl. . .
