Problem ot Transportation Discussed at Joint Conference oi Government and Grain Shippers. , , (From our own Correspondent.) OTTAWA, Sept. 10.--An important conference between a sub-committee of the Government and representative grain shippers took place to-day. the grain men coming to Ottawa at the invitation of the Government to dis- cuss the questions that have arisen in connection with the transportation of the huge Canadian wheat surplus to Great Britain. Reports which have reached Ottawa from reliable sources in the West place the wheat harvest at three hundred millions bushels. lt is for the most part grain of the high- est grade, big hard wheat, and the percentage that has been frost dam- aged will be insufficient to prevent the quality average from registering well above that of previous years. The efforts of the Government are being directed towards ensuring sufficient tonnage for the shipment of the export wheat and at rates which will not prove too burdensome. As a result oi’ the negotiations which took pales be. tween Sir Robert Borden and the lm- perlal Government authorities it is Iexpected that sufficient tonnage will be available by the use of tramps and by , the release of such other ships as may be required. There are, however, cer- tain other dlfticulties of a practical nature to be overcome and it was with a view to overcoming these that to- Robert Rogers presided, there being present also Sir George E. Foster, Hon. J. D. Reid, Hon. Martin Burrell and ,Hon. Arthur Meighen. The grain shippers were represented by Mr Jas. Carruthers and Mr A. P. Stewart of Montreal and Mr Harry Richardson of Kingston. The shippers appeared to ,be concerned clliefly with the abnor- mally higll rate now being charged, amounting to thirty cents a bushel. This aspect of the problem was thor- oughly discussed and a number of sug- gestions were madc toward the correc- tion of some of the conditiolls, which now add to the cost of wheat trans- portation. Tile conference was very satisfactory one and it is likely to result in action by the Government along lines defined at the meeting. ...,-,-_-,- ..._.,,__,A-_-_-_-_»_-'___,_.__,_._.,_-_-_-_ _-_-,_-_-_-_______~_~_ WHEATLEY RIVER ALSO IN LINE i ..,, . Last nlght's meeting at Wheatley River was another triumph for the Government candidates. it was large and representative and emphatically Conservative from beginning to end. Mr John McMillan was the first speaker., He took the old ground, re- llashing the time-worn charges of ex- trnvagancc and waste on the part of tho Government. He admitted the rohds were good and that the Mathie- soll Government had many public works to its credit. Following up his clmrges `of extravagance he took up again' the -Asylum contracts. insinuat- ing that no tenders had been called for for the supplying of meat, flour. molasses, cheese, etc., and that the cost of running this institution was much greater than under Liberal management. He took up the subsidy question, giving credit to Mr J. J. Hughes for having secured lt, and in fact went over all the usual charges and credits. He laid all the blame for Grit deficits at the door of the Sullivan Government, which had drawn $200,000 from capital. Had this llot been done, the Grit Government would have come out at the end of its history without debt or deficit. Mr J. H. Buntain followed, and in all excellent speech of forty-five min- utes exposed all the cllarges as well as thecredlts rehashed by Mr Mc- Millan. He reviewed the education Question. referring to the increase in teachers’ salaries and the general betterment of conditions under the Msthieson Government as compal’ed with the days of discouraging decline under Liberal rule. He referred to the work done by the Public Works De- partmsntymentioning particularly the work lions in his own district, includ- ing thh opening up of new roads. the new wllarves at York Point and Rocky P01111. new steel bridge at Hunter River and others. Mr Blake made a splendid ifhpression and received a good hearing. Mr Georg E. Hughes was the next speaker. e was not in good form and made ps. poor showing. The only GUSTS! he displayed was when denoull- Gills the siitomoblle, which he declared would be pilt out of business' when the Grits came into their own. He dc- clared 'also that when that happy Derlod was reached all Government salaries wotlld be cut down, as all the officials were extravagantly paid. He gave Mr J. J. Hughes credit for secur- Inif the $100,000 subsidy, which the audience received with lr good-natured smile. _ _ The next name on the programme was that of Mr L. L.

"News Item, - no Address. - "Woodrow, get our Remington out." An American \¢r cartoon represents Woodrow Wilson fighting with s S' Wall Mlnsrsfo Llrilmont euros nhoumstlsn gentleman gave his place to Mr Mau- ricc Blake. Mr Blake took up the general history of the Government, showing in a sl\`en- did address the progressive and busi- nesslike manner ill which the work of the province was carried on, mention- ing particularly the public works, the roads. etc. He took Mr McMillan sharply to task with reference to the Asylum contracts. He showed a news- paper clippillg of an advertisement calling for tenders for supplies, giving the lie direct to the insinuation that tenders had not been called for and dared Mr McMillull to come to the platform and read the notice to the audience. Mr McMillan did not come and the audience cheered Mr Blake. Mr McMillan had stated that beef was supplied to the Asylum by the Messrs Blake Brothers at 15 cents per pound. Mr Blnke pointed out that this was another misrepresentation, the coll- tract price beillg $7.90 per ilundred, and he had the documents to prove it. lll none of the yearly contracts from September lst, 1912 to 1915, did the Government pay over 9 cents per pound for beef. As to the increase ill the running expenses of the Asylunl, Mr Blake stated, as everybody knew, that the price of all foodstuffs and labour had gone up in the past few years. l~Le ventured the statement, without fear of contradiction. that the Asylunl, under Dr Goodwill‘s manage- ment, was being conducted. as econo- mically and as efficiently as it could possibly be done, and much more so than under any former management. He quoted a declaration made by Premier Matllieson that nothing but the best of food was to be supplied to tile Asylum. Under the former Gov- ernment meat was supplied by Mr Wheatley, alld in many cases the meat supplied wus not as good as that sup- plied to-day to foxes. Mr McMillan had tried to make s. point against the oldest firm of meat dealers in Prince Edward Island, the Blake Brothers, but the reputation of the firm for hollcsty and integrity would carry it through ally amount of insinuations of that kind. Tile iirnl had served tllo Steam Navigation Company with meat for over fifty ycars and had also supplied ships of thc British Navy and all English ships coming into this port. Tenders had been called for for thc military camp at Brighton and the contract had hccn awarded to Messrs Saunders & Newsome and Blake Bros. at 15 cents per pound, although Mr McMillan had stated that the price was 22 ccllts. This, of course, was a Dominion matter. but Mr McMIllan's statement was a distinctly local Grit misrepresentation. ,Mr Blake made a splendid impres- sion and settled once for all the con- tcmptlble charges made by Grit can- didates. The audience loudly cheered Mr Blake. and it is not likely the bcef charges will again be raised by Mr McMillan or his colleague. M. Bradford LePage followed, and the concluding speech, was given by Mr L. L. Jenkins. who spoke in his usually effective manner. The meeting was strongly and un. mistskenbly Conservative, and Messrs ,Buntain and Jenkins are sure of the almost unanimous support of this section.

The Third District joint meeting held in Maple Leaf Hall, Grand River, Lot 14, on Wednesday evening was a great meeting for the Conservative cause. _', Mr. Joseph Arsenault was the first to hold the large assemblage spell- bound with what he did not say, so he had to make way for Mr. H. D. Doble, who went into his subject with much enthusiasm and made point af- ter polnt in favor of his side of the question, much to the ediflcation of his bearers, who frequently applaud- ed him. Mr. A. E. McLean was *the next speaker, but like Mr. Joseph Arsen- ault, he was at a disadvantage, owing to having a. poor case and lacking platform experience, but he did as well as could be expected under the circumstance. Mr. John Richards came next on the programme but owing to his having a weak case and not being very fond of public speaking he only talked a short time. Hon. A. E. Arsenault sailed into the speakers on the Liberal side in a style that was unique. He accused Mr. A. E. McLean of talking against the sys- tem of leasing oyster areas ill Rich-' nlolld Bay and at the same time he was one of the many lessees himself. This Mr. McLean emphatically denied, but Mr. Arsenault, like a flash, turned, up the names of those who took out leases and proved to the entire -satis- faction of the audience that Mr. Mc- Lean was among the number. This revelation brought down the house and put the previous speaker in a very awkward position in the eyes of his supporters. The Conservative nominees are meeting with even nlcro encourage- ment than they expected and are sat- isfied they will have big majorities on tho 16th.

Sept. 10.-Three lives lost, the schooner "Hiawatha" totally destroyed with over tivo hun-, .dred barrels of gasoline and oil, and tho end of the Imperial Oil Company's pier Farviow burned, was the result of an explosion which occurred short- ly after six o’clock this morning on board the schooner, which was lying at the pior, having practically com- pleted loading a oar of oil for Burln, Newfoundland. Three of the crew of the Hiawatha are dead, Capt Clarke, seamen Saunders and Hooper. Those saved are cook Farell, mate Hussey and seaman Kerby. Farrel, besides some burns on his face. had his hands badly scorched, but yet fared better than any other member of the crew except mate Hussey, whose sllgllt ln- jurles did not require any hospital attention. Kerby has a fractured leg and was burned on the face, but his nose was more severely scorched than any other part of his body. The story of the fatality as given by the survivors is in effect that last night the fumes of gasoline were so heavy in thc forccastlo that tho members of the crew were unable to sleep there, and all wont aft and slept in the cabin. This morning when the cook left the cabin to prepare breakfast he lit the fire. An explosion occurred imme- dlately and fire spread to every sec- tion of the ship. .

Find- lllg themselves unable to cope with the task they have undertaken they have trotted out Mr George Wheatley, who tries his best to get a word in edge- ways. At Rustico the meeting refused to listen to him, although his friends endeavoured to push him forward. Messrs Hughes’ and McMillan’s cam- paign ls a hopeless one.
