LONDON, Sept.\t9.\u2014Although press cables from Canada assert that an appeal to the Privy Council will be taken against the judgement of the Grand Trunk Board of Arbitration declaring the common and preference stocks valueless, there is reason to believe that the stockholder here will hesitate about making such an appeal, owing to the expense involved.It is not known here what authority is behind that statemen from Canada that such an appeal will be taken.The stockholders here are doing nothing in the matter until a full text of the decision is received by maii.Many of the holders of the stocks here are already weary of the judicial proceedings and may baulk at the suggestion of further assessment for expense, which would result from an appeal to the Privy Council.Much of the recent speculative buying of the \u201cTrunks\u201d came from Lancashire and Yorkshire.The Manchester Guardian, in mentioning this, suggests making a reasonable arrangement, if possible, out of court, and hopes that the Canadian Government will see some way to meet the undoubted moral claims of the stockholders in a generous spirit.Otherwise, in the opinion of the Guardian, there is no option but to prosecute an appeal, especially in view of the dissenting judgement of so distinguished a lawyer -as expresident Taft.The Yorkshire Post says that what will strike the people as most extraordinary is the wide differences of opinion between Cassels and White, the two Canadians on the one j side, and Taft, the most independent member on the other.\u201cIt is inconceivable,\u201d says the Post,\u201cthat stocks valued at £37,000- | 000, will be swept away and the holders receive nothing.That would jbe rank confiscation.\u201d j The stock exchange quotations on I Grand Trunk stocks today are pure-lly nominal as yesterday.TRACK RECORD AT RICHMOND WAS BROKEN Record crowd in Attendance on Final Day of the Annual Fair at Richmond.l 1 Hon.W.G.Mitchell Addressed Union of Municipalities at Quebec.QUEBEC, Sept.9.\u2014Addressing the Union of Municipalities of the Province of Quebec, Hon.W.G.Mitchell, Provincial Treasurer, urg-license to e(j toWng an(j cjt,ies to be wary of further borrowing at present, stating that while the müniçipalities and the Province of Quebec _had an unsurpassed reputation in the money markets, careful and prudent administration was necessary to conserve that reputation.The Minister expressed pleasure at the cordial relations existing be- EXPECTED SUCH A DECISION.(Associated Press Despatch) WINNIPEG, Sept.9.\u2014 \u201cThe award of the Grand Trunk Arbitration Board was Just what I expected, in view of the obligations of the Grand Trunk to the Government and its guarantee respecting the Grand Trunk Pacific,\u201d was the statement made last night by Senator F.L.lîeique, vice-president of the Banque du Hochelaga, Montreal, who is touring Canada with President Beatty, of the Canadian Pacific Railway.\u201cI don\u2019t think that any other award could be expected by anyone,\u201d he continued.\u201cOf course it will (Special to The Record.)
