FRENCH REPORTS CANADIANS SAVED THE DAY EARL GREY WIRED CONGRATULATIONS TO BORDEN SEVERE FIGHT WILL BE LARGE CANADIAN RAILWAY SITUATION APITAL Montreal Financial Times Deals With A Serious Question That Is Now Before The Country With Respect To Railway Investments Tlie argument was projected in the lirst of this series of articles that, because of the rising cost of living which constantly confront* them, Canadian railroads are faced Willi another cause for disriuiot in the obvious difficulty of making railroad investment sufficiently attractive for capital, says the Montreal Financial Times of April 10. Thai it is likely to prove a serious handicap to the future of the Dominion in view of the fact Ihat vast areas yet remain unsettled and untapped by railroads will possibly not be gainsaid. Existing railroads, moreover, for the .-a ice of extensions, onie moments nnd other causes, will be required to make, from time to time, large expenditures on capital account. Under normal conditions it is not unreasonable to suppose Ihat existing systems musl necessarily expand with .the country. On the other CONFERENCE ON CITY FISH WHARF MEETING OK THOSE INTERESTED WAS HELD IN CITY HALT. YESTERDAY". Attorney-General Bowser Will Be Approached in Connection With It. At the City Hall yesterday fore- f. noon there was a conference held at which representatives of various interests connected with the fishing industry as well as members of the Council and others were present. The idea was to discuss the proposition that has been put forward in connection with the proposed city wharf nt Seal Cove for handling fish from i lie Independent fishermen that may come lo the city.

Tiie story 'of the combined railroads of the Dominion in tlie past forty years has been one of steady growth, as shown by statements of earnings. The aggregate gross earn ings of all the systems in the Dominion in I ST.". was $19,470,539". Last year aggregate gross earnings amounted to $243,083,539. The ascent from the lower figure to the higher has not been one of sudden leaps, but rather a period of steady growth as that of the infant merging into youth. Between the two figures half of the romance of the Dominion could be written. The Next Forty Tears.

Tiie proposal that lias been made to construct a public wharf for the purpose of assisting tlie industry seems to be favorably received by most of tbe people that have in view tlie advancing of this as a Iisbing porl. At the same time it was made evident that there was some additional informal ion that might well be made available.' The proposal for a public wharf along the lines suggested has been largely the result of careful in- vestlgationupon tbe ground here by .11. .1. Hobin.

The prospect seems rather to be that the expansion of agriculture nnd commerce oi the past forty years in Canada will be dwarfed by comparison with the expansion of the next forty years. A good deal will depend on the railroads. If agriculture and commerce expand, as undoubtedly they will, it seeins reasonable to suppose that the railroads will expand also. Expansion of railroad systems will necessitate tbe raising of additional capital, lt has been shown in a previous article that while gross earnings have increased the ratio of operating exj .

' This condition does not apply to Canadian railroads alone. Tho great carrying roads of the Eastern States have felt tlie situation acutely of late years anil the outcome was just such a petition to the Interstate Commission, the counterpart of the Dominion Railway Commission, as Canadian railroads are now presenting^ tlie latter body. The American petition, it might he remarked in passing, was granted. The (aot is, railroads have been forced of recent years to meet competition in the investment markets from many sources; from Government issues, public utility issues and industrial issues. The brief on' behalf of the Eastern roads of the United States, prepared by eminent counsel, contained many truthful and logical deductions on the subject of railroad investments which are entirely applicable lo conditions as they exist in Canada today. Increasing Load of Fixed Charges.. Investors have noi ml with concern, it was pointed out, the constantly increasing proportion of outstanding capital obligations represented by bond issues and short-term notes, as compared with the decreasing proportion of capital stock, ln other words, he relative increase of creditors and decreases in the number nf partners Is due to the failure of additional capital Invested in recent years to earn an adequate return. Few of the railroads are able to issue prior lien obligations and their existing mortgages have been closed and cover not only their original railroads and other property, but also that subseuuenlyt acquired. They are compelled therefore to issue junior securities which are only marketed at lower prices and a corresponding higher interest basis. Under these conditions, ii is urged, a railroad which cannot adjust rati s to . !( I rlsin . c. - and thereby suffei .. loss in relal, e n< I earnings is doubly , ii Bt ii musl pa; nor on accounl of tb gen. : .... of eai Ital, and, conil fer throuf . its 1 good lecuri form, rly or to maintain margin of pi oS enou ■ . offset 1 lie ange In char- act, i- ol ... ■ .-iiiit.-■ offered.

Purchasing Power of the Dollar. What may be the underlying causes of the decrease in tlie value of money il is not proposed lo discuss here at length. To die enormous increase in the production of gold, to the expansion of bank credits, to the drift of population to the cities or lo any combinations of these and other diverse agencies, writers on economics are accustomed to attribute the decline in the purcll power of the dollar.

The Only Solution. Tiie most natural solution, the most logical solution and the solu- SaBBMal ed is the increasing of the the only commodity most railroads have to sell, viz., transportation.

But Germany cannot conquer the British Empire; she Is breaking her nails against a rock. Therefore to that empire will belong tlle Twentieth Century, and to Russia when she has awakened the intelligence of her peasant millions and developed her resources, will surely belong the twenty-first. Lot us both recognize Ibis and live at peace. We have in truth, more in common with Russians than with any oilier nation. We are, for instance, obstinate and inconsistent; so are ihey. If we taunt them with sticking to tlieir old calendar, whicli is thirteen days behind everyone else's, they can point In replj to our pigheaded .'ind far more inconvenient retention of peculiar measure of money and weight and length, in place of the decimal system used by everyone else. When we complain that their alphabet has thirty-six letters in it their retort is: "it enables us to spell as we pronounce, whereas your spelling and pronunciation are not related at all!" Englishmen who are rash enough to pity Rtts- seinns because they "lack political freedom" arc reminded that there is no Mrs. Grundy in Russia to check .personal freedom with a far more galling bond. No Russian who knows the world denies that bis country is behind the other greal powers both in the common level of Intelligence and In mechanical conveniences, This has advantages, however.

Before the work was well slarted a change in the plans was made. II was felt that should anything go wrong with the pipes after the tracks were all in place (here might be interference wiih the railway's plans while the work was being repaired. A change was then decided upon and the underground route was abandoned. . Tbe new arrangement lends itself to ready repairs at any lime that Ibe joints may give. The inspection of tlie line al all limes is made simple also. The intention of the company when the work is done is to serve the whole northern coast, as well as Alaska and the Yukon, from here.
