behind the Crow's Nest Coul Company, in the fight against CP.Rrates in British Columbia, is confirmed by the following interview in a news- per this evening : \u201cIf the Canadian Pacifio Railway does not reduce its freight rates on ore, all the mines in British Columbia which are subject to the tolls of that corporation, will have to shut down eventually.\u201d \u201cAnd that means that the War Eagle will discontinue operations soun- er or later.\u201d \u201cAssuredly the War Eagir, as us the others.\" Such were the statements made by Geo.Gooderham, President of the War Eagle Mining mpany, to a reporter this morning, and it accounts for the rapid fall in the exchanges during the t few days.The value cf the stock Bis declined without apparent rsason, and outside ators, when question- od, professed to be ignorant of any rea son for the fall.This morning, however, there was a rumcr ou the street that the Gooderham-Blackston syndicate were at war with the C.P.R., and had threatened that unless that corporation showed more liberality in ile freight charges on ore, they would withdraw all their interests from British Columbia.Mr.Gooderham was questioned is to the truth of | this re port.\u201cWell, we can't say that we will withdraw our interests at present,\u2019 he said, \u2018out you can say this, that wo wouid not proceed any further with our investments unless the C.P.Rgives uy better treatment.The object of the company now is to get as much as they can without making us operate the mines at a Joss.We do not proj to submit to this.In addition in high freight charges, the rates for treatment of the ore at the trial smelter, which is owned the C.P.R., are excessive.We Im: an offer for purchase of the trail smelter, but the C.P.R.demanded from $300,000 to £600,000 for it, a price we regard ay too high by at least 25 per cent.They have also refused to meet us in a reduction of [freight rates to the smelter, and, of course, this is a most important item.\u201d \u201cThen, if you fail to come to an agreement with the C.P.R.as to the purchase of the smelter and as to freight rates on the ore, the War Eagle will have to shut down?\" \u201cYes, boldly stated, that will be the result,\u201d answered Mr.Gooderham, \u201cbut I think the publication of such a statement will have a bad efect on the stock, The Lrokers would take advantage of it to hammer down the stock.\u201d \"It the railroad does not meet you, do you propuse to join the Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company in the fight nst the railroad ?\u2018Yes, certainly, our interesis are with the mine, but 1 think that the C.P.R.will yield, as great pressure is being brought to bear on it.\u201d Mr.Gooderbam's interests in British Columbia, including Centre Star, Stand Moyie, War Eagle and other mines, are not lexs than five million dollars, so the stake is à pretty high one.weil a \u2014 pre WAR WAGES MERRILY.Railway Companies Intend to Fight to the Bitter End.Toronto, Jan.15.\u2014 A Victoria despatch to the Globe says, that the absorption of the C.P.N.Company by the C.P.R.Company, and the evident intention of the railway to em- tark in the northern transportation business have forced home on its rivals, the Northern Pacific and the Great Northern, the fact that they in turn will have to inake new alliances in order to meet the altered conditions of trade and successfully compete with the Canadian Pacific Railway.A railroad man who has just arrived in the city from the Sound, states that the Northern Pacific has entered into an arrangement with the Washington and Alas'a Steamship Company for a charter of that Company's vessels to transport their business to Skaguayreat Northern, according to the same authority has entered into an arrangement wifh the Pacific Coast Steamship Company authorities to handle its trade, All the great lines, therefore, will have all northern traffic.Shipping men, the despatch adds, all agree that the new deal will be little stort of revolutionary in its effect u the transportation arrange ments for this point, and that all new plans and schedules will have to te made to meet the altered conditions.+ MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS Hudson, \u2026 Jan.15.=Memmn.John Gray, Wiliam Graham and John McNaughton, were elected Councillors for Como.River David, Que., Jan, 15\u2014After a hatd contented

Interesting Joint Report on the Subject From 39 of the Branch Pilots \u2014\u2014 TRE GENERAL TREND OF OPINION SEENS FAVORABLE JE Nineteen of the pilots, resident at St.John, on the Island of Orleanshave thoroughly discussed the question of winter navigation of the St.Lawrence and have nade a mow carefully worded aud exhaustive report of their opinions in answer to the circular letter sent out some time ago by Chronicle.The questions asked by this paper were as follows : 1.Is there a possibility ef Quebec becoming a winter port?2.Give reasons for your opinion 8.Is there nny necessity for the use of lee-crushiug steamers, such ae are used in the Baltic ?4 What do you consider the worst months of the year for the st Lawrence route ?5.Would you personally be willing te bring steamers up to pert during the whole year ?& What changes in the Quebec Marbor facilities would be need ed to wake winter navigation possible?The joint report of the St.John, Island of Urleans, pilots is as follows: St.John, Island of Orleans, January 11th, 1901.We, undersigned.have discussed winter navigation prospects and alter having taken ail opinions into consideration, we came to the following conclusion : Firstly\u2014There is a possibility of coming to Quebec during winter, but, with more or less difficulties at certain times and subject to delays of several days from time to time.Second.\u2014On condition that steamers will be built strong enough to stand the pressure, and powerful enough to go through the ice, helped by ice crushing steamers, when, in the former part of the winter the river is much covered with ice.Later om, when opposite Sault of the Chaudiere the ice bridge is formed, the river opposite Quebec and vicinity being almost clear of ice, access would be easier and ice crushing steamers very seldom .Third\u2014As we said above, ice crushing steamers wouldn't be needed all the time, but it will be of great importance to have them for steamers\u2019 security.Fourth\u2014We consider the worst weather to be from the middle of December until the middle of February.Although there are several consecutive days of fine weather, when steamers could come up to Quebec as easy 8 in the beginning of December and later on in March and April.Fifth\u2014=Yes, we would br'ng steamers up to Quebec during winter if they would be purposely built for the traf- SKixth\u2014In the Quebec harbor it will be of an absolute necessity lo 1he Louise basin free of ice, s0 as to allow steamers to go in and to move about anv time.Certainly, if the south channel is pre ferred, the erection of another block in the Traverse is needed.The widening of the narrows at Crane Island, with the erection of a block on the west end of Beaujeu bank will also be] necessary.But when caught in a snowstorm or in a fog once above the Traverse, it would be very risky work to keep on, being unable to use the lead properly.Ax we consider the anchorage of steamers an impossibility, we believe this difficulyy would te removed by the erection of blocks of a circular form, having di water all around, vshere steamers could be moor ed and shifted around with the tide.It is difficult to determine the exact places they should be built, but we think that one could be built between the east end of Beaujeu bank and Goose Island reefs; another one somewhere at Grosse Isle or Reaux Island.With time it will be found if more are needed.It is our opinion that the north channel, right through between Traverse Split and Brule bank, is preferable.At Eboulements the river is mostly clear of ice, and from there up to Traverse Split also, especially when the ice bridge is formed between the west end of Orleans Island and the north shore, meking a barrier for drift ice through that channel known under the name of \u201cOrleans channel.\u201d \u2018The narrow passage between Traverse Split and Brule bank dredged and widened, a block erected on the Traverse Spit, north east end, surmounted by a revolving lighl.The west sand, a bank hardly two miles long, entirely dredged, or at least on its N.N.Epart, sn as to widen and siraighten the channel between Traverse Spit and West Sand up towards the south side of Orleans Island.The Eboulements whar{ prolonged, 80 as to allow steamers to go alongside and lie there with safety when the weather would not be good enough to proceed fur.on.(Signed) LEONIDAS LACHANCE.ARTHUR LACHANCE JOSEPH PAQUET JOSEPH THIVIERGE.PIERRE GOBEIL.PAUL PAQUET.Sr, CYPRIEN LANGLOIS.MOISE POULIOT.T.B.POULIOT.BARTHOLEMI LACHANCE LOUIS THIVIERGE ISIODE

some companies are buildin, steamers powerful enough to sal through ice to break it and to clear a passage, I believe that it would easy for a ship to come to bec at any time of {| ear, hut often with great delay oned by storms and by snow.3, Ît is absolutely necessary for the winter navigation of the St.Lawrence to have very strong steamers such as ice crushers, or the steamers Capt.Inman recently described in Quebec.4.The least advantageous months for the St.Lawrence route are ge , January and Fi rally u- ary.Very often it in quite easy to come tp river to Quebec after the 13th and even as late a» the 15th of December with the stealners which come here in summer.Hut sometimes it is very difficult to come to on the 25th of November with the same steamers.The month of March is generally windy and snowy, and that would cause great delay to win- my 3 always prepared to pilot à steamer to Quebec or to go down to pe | Gest Father Point, provided that steamer were capable of breaking ice and clearing a passage, and that great improvements would be made in the St.Lawrence river.8.A block below the Traverse where the lightship is anchored in summer, but in deeper water.Another block at Channel patch below the Pillars.Another block at the west of Beaujeu teak.Another three or four miles west of the Quarantine station.All these blocks should have lights as guides durin the night,
