Edyard today adopting addresses of tondolénce and congratulating the ww King.Premier Asquith, in the House of Commons, and the Earl of Crewe, in the House of Lords, delivered eulogies 2m Edward VII.and both showed great emotion.The day was chiefly devoted to re tording the nation\u2019s official condolences to the Royal family.King George and the Queen Mother received, at Marlboro House and Buckingham Palace respectively, deputations from the Lords and Commons bearing the resolutions.Numbers of beautiful wreaths are arriving at the Palace, but at the Queen Mother's special request all Bowers will be sent to Windsor Castle.The funeral will be of military character, and it is considered that carrying wreathe in procession would be in- soi ous.announcement that ex-President Roosevelt

Created Considerable Amount of Dis- \u201csssion in Private Bills Committee Yesterday, | LE Billa Committee of the tive Assembly met yes ay morning a i the suggestod amendments to the Quebec city charter, and among those present were Mayor Drouin, .Cannon and City Attorney Phileas Corriveau.There was considerable discussion over the firat clause, which is to em- Ra the city, to borrow the sum of ,000 of which amount $200,000 will be spent for permanent works in 1.i- moilou Ward ; $72,000 for the paving of Bt.Andrew's street; 820, for the acquisition of lands on the St.Charles river; $15,000 to reimburse\u2019, the city for ooctain sxpenditures for permanent works retaining walis on Abraham Hill, and $43,000 for permanent works and improvements in the city.on motion of Mr.Letourneau, the ®ity was empowered to borrow filt thousand dollars more, which sum will be added to the forty-three thousand dollars allotted for permanent works tn the city, raising the amount to be \u201c« to $93,000, discussion of the entire aitiing binged on the qum of ¥200.000 to he t on anent works in ) imoilou ard, and those who spoke most were , lav and Provost, who fought the expenditute of «ho amount, maintaining that it would only serve to benefit a group of land apaculstors.The climax came when dr.J etows- mau roposed that tle clause he pence y adding that the sum of $200,000 be spent in Vimoilou only according to the terms an.) conditions fixed by the Finance Committes of the Cit, of Quebec at a recent meeting and that the sport of the meeting be added to the bill as schedule B.Mr.Prevost objected and maimtained that it would be irregular to make puch an addition to the bill as the entices covering such an addition had not been made and that it had not sven been submitted to the law officer, and he proposed that the Committee rise and that the bill be referred to the Committee on Standing Ordersamendment was defeated by a vole of 15 to 8 and Mr.Prevost wae about to propose another amendment when the Committees adjourned.The bill will be taken up again this Amongst the powera to be asked hy the city is one which will materially affect the owners of a ty ocou- pled by the owner amd tenant and which was fully discussed in the City Council.It would be well for narties who will come under this clause to look after their interests.DO YOU

power which had stood him in such splendid stead after his weri- ous operation in 1903, and that any intercurrent catarrhal or bronchitic attack of a serious kind would at once call upon both heart and lungs for their fullest effort.\u201cIt must be here said that those around him knew how earnestly concerned he was at the present strained tion of political affairs, and this fret ehould hot be lost i of in on all-round consideration the King's health,\u201d ; Referring to the King\u2019s recent visit to Biarritz, the statement says : \u201cThe first night in Paris His Majesty had a severe ptiack of acute indigestion with subsequent dyspnoea (shortness = of breath, On his arrival at Biarritz this develo) into -a bronchitis attack, causmg his physicians great anxiety.This passed off and His Ma- | jesty returned beter in every way, but he contracted a chill at Sandringham while inspecting the gardens.\u201d On his return to on, the statement continues, from May 3, the attacke of dyspnoea increased, altho the King insisted upon attending to business of state as late as Thursday, May 5th.\u201cOn that day,\u201d the pbysicians add, \u201cthe attacks becante more frequent and distressing, and with increasing anosis, gravely suggestive reat- ed cardiac failure.With the King's ission, the doctors issued the first Potietin on Thursday night, but not until it was seen by Hin Majesty, who somewhat modified its terms.From Friday morning his condition rapidly me worse, There were several dangerous attacks, aud Hie Majesty only valtied with the use of rem- odies.At three o'clock the alter- acém oonsciousnese failed.The ed came at 11.45 o'clock after a prolong- od period of perfect calm.\u201d LIQUOR MEN Waited Upon the Provincial Government Yesterday in Regard to important Matter One of the largest deputations that ever called upon a Government, was that of the Montreal Liquor and Hotel men, which met the members of the Cabinet yesterday morning.About 400 arrived by boat from Montreal yesterday, and were joined here hy several hundred others from all points of the Province.A preliminary meeting was held at the Auditorium when several resolutions were adopted.The general opinion among the delegates was against any concessions in the early closing scheme.However, they did not appear to be opposed to the reduction of licenses, provided that some compensation be made to those who would be refused licenses if a reduction took place, but such reduction should be judiciously done.Mr.Lawrence A.Wilson, of Montreal, is the President ol the Association, which is known an the Federation of Licensed Wine and Liquor Dealers of the Province of Quebec, After the meeting in the Auditorium the delegales proceeded to the Parliament buildings, where they met Premier Gouin and the members of his Cabinet.Mr.Wilson acted as spokesman and remarked that there was no need of early closing if the t license law was carried out.licensés were to be reduced, the Government should compensate those who may lose their licenses.Mr.Wilson added that the delegates were prepared to discuss the per means of reducing licenses, as t was generally admitted that the shuts of piques was an nit He con- oi that the proposed.legislation would be arbitrary and would open the door to the illicit sale of liquor, and mors abuses would consequently be the result.In: concluding his remarks, Mr.Wilson suggested that if the law was to be changed.all interested parties should bo heard, : Bir Lomer Gouin, in reply, informed the delegation that he was favorable to the temperance cause.The Government had lietened to the arguments hrought forth by the temperance people, \u2018and would also carefully consider the demands of the license hold.ere.Continuing, the Premier remarked that he would be frank with them and inform them that the Government favored the temperance cause, as alcohol had made too many victims.Tt wan true that considerable capital was invested in the trade, but that was no argument to prevent the sent law being improved, and he had told the temperance reformers that, if possible, the law woul be amended It \u2018was their duty to try and put a stop to the existing evil, and the only way was to aid those who suffer by that abuse, The dgmands of the tempersnce re .ate a new road system by constructing QUEBEC.THURSDAY.MAY 12, 1910 Temperatures Minimum and Maximum T- tures\u2014Quebec, 36-50.formers were for shorter hours and reduction in the number of licenses.The proposition was to close restaurants at 7 p.m.on Saturdays and 10 .m.on days, and this was the law in other Provinces, and he did not see why Quebec should net follow suit.As regards the early closing, eleven o\u2019cloc might be preferabls ond ths Government intended amending the law this or next session as rogards tho early closing, and if the Association had any suggestions to make they should send them in immediately.It was the intention of putting Quebec on the same footing as Ontario, as if it did good there, it should do good in this Province.No doubt the hotel men would admit that there were too many abuses which ahould be put a stop to, and this can be attained by the reduction of licenses or selling house, He hoped that they would support the Govern: ment on this question.In the mean: time the latter had no intention of despoiling a licensed hotel-keeper of his property.Mr.Brassard, of St.Johns, P.Q., al- #0 spoke and remarked that a man should not lose his license if no complaint was made against him.Premier Gouin asked what they thought of a law by which Hoenses would be granted in country districts if the majority of electors favorsd it and the Council have to grant it.Ald.Laplante replied that they would accept such a law; but the Premier remarked that it was only a suggestion.After a few more remarks from the Premier, the deputation withdrew.DEBATE ON COLONIZATION Took Up Most of the Time of the House at Both Sessions Yesterday.Most of the afternoon and evening sittings of yesterday's proceedings in the: Legislative Assembly was devoted to a te on colonisation matters, when Hon.Mr.Prevost and Messrs, Sylvestre, Lavergne.and Plante attacked the Government for trying to remove an entire parish from lots which they had been occupying lor jours past.The evening sitting would ve no doubt lasted much longer if Hon.Mr.Allard had not moved the bo.lowes fo ok or me 40 spesk once more on the Deputy Speaker Delage decided that the motion for journment was before the House had to be denlt with, so the House adjourned.In the islative Council yesterday afternoon address presented by Premier Gouin on Tuesday last, sympathizing in the death of the late King was adopted yesterday afternoon.Mr.Geofirion\u2019s bill to amend the Revised Statutes respecting actions for the recovery of constituted rents was presented and read a first time.There were a large number of questions on the order paper, a number being answered by members of the Government.Mr.Plante was informed that only three applicants sent in applications for the position of King\u2019s Printer, left vacant by the death of Mr.Pageau.These applicants were Messrs.L.V.Filteau, Fra.Petitclerc and L.A.Belange.Plante was also informed that the Government will have its docu- ents printed on the best possible conditions : that the Government will examine if it would bs advantageous to change the conditions under which the Journal of Agriculture and Quebec Officinl Gazette are being printed and published at present.The minutes of the House are printed daily and the calling for the printing of these min- ates this year would be useleas, As regards the printing of statutes the type used for tbe printing of the bills is kept on hand and the Government considers that it would be less expensive to have the statutes printed b those who print the bills, than call for tenders.Mr, Girard asked for information re garding the schools in the County of L'lslet and was informed that cighty- two schools in that County wers under the control of the School Commis- \u2018sioners and that 79 were in operation last year.Mr.Laver was informed that the Government had under consideration the question of amending the law this session.Mr.Plante wan informed that the Government had not taken copnizance of the statement made by Mr.Gervais, M.P., Montreal, at the last Provincial byselection for St.James Division that it was urgent to inaugur- license great rural highways through the Provinos and that the Government had no intention of proposing such a pol- fence for his that this was an old affair which ha beon settiod in February, 1909, by the the lots From

TRADE.At a special general meeting ol the Quebec Board of Trade, held yoator- day, the details of which appear in snother column, a resolution of con- dolencs in connection with the death of King Fdward was adopted, amidst impressive silence.The meeting was one of the largest held by the Board of Trade in many years, the resolution beautifully worded, and the short sposches of the gentlemen supporiing it\u2014Messrs.Gaspard LeMoine and H.M.Price\u2014were the periection of sympathy and good taste.The mecting was largely composed of our French- Canadian fellow-citizens, and by a singular coincidence, which could not happen in any other colonial city but antiquated Quebec, the mover of the resolution is the descendant of a French admiral, renowned in the history of Canada two centuries ago, and the seconder a gentleman who lives on the very spot where the late King's grandiather resided in 1780.The President of the Board, Mr.G.A.Vandry, also made a most impressive address, and all the proceedings were in keeping with the traditions of the oldest commercial guild in America\u2014\u2014 \u201cSOMETHING ROTTEN IN THE STATE\" When a faithful and heavily = sub- gidized press can turn and rend the | government and its works, and sets out to confirm our own accusations, {hen we may safely conclude thal there really is \u201csomething rotten in the State.\u201d Of course, we know, or ought to know, that all the work, which such organs do for the government is done out of that pure-souled and high- mindrd patriotiem, which towers above ; all scrdid yearnings afier filthy lucre.\u2018They themselves have told us so, and | have been at considerable pains to im- \u2018press upon us the fact that they are doing such work at a loss out of their boundless and disinterested charity.And yet there were Certain people | | ~we 6blush for their callous lack \"of faith\u2014who could not, or would ! not, picture to themselves any partisan journal turning apainst its masters, and apurning the loaves and fishes | with a \u201ctake it away, I hats the | ight of it\u201d kind of expression.Following on these facts therefore, it ie with the greatest pleasure we re- \u2018mark that the press of Quebec has proved the glorious exception to the rule, and is calling the Government to account on ths score of its iamentable apathy and disregard of Quebec's in- tereats, capecially in the matter of the Grand Trunk Pacific.Particularly would we congratulate \u201cLe Soleil\u201d for its commendable altitude in this respect, since it does not hesitate to ! paint out thet Quebec has been \"grievously deceived in the matter of the Grand Trunk Pacific.Quoting these words of Mr.Hays, \u201cThe outlet of the Grand Trunk will be at Montreal, St, John and Halifax.That was the original intention and it will not be departed from\u2019 \u2014which were reported in lant Friday's Star, it draws a picture of Quebecers, now taking charming and instructive walke {n the bridge to see the great convoys passing by from the west, now employing their time in gazing enviously from the Terrace at the laden stenmers going down to the ocean.| \u201cWe have the right,\u201d says Le Soleil, \u201cto protest against Mr.Hays\u2019 anser- tion that this was the original intention and it had bean conformed to.It may have been his intention from the start, but it was never the intention of the Transcontinental pro- motern.We have on this matter numerous formal declarations; Quebec, the summer terminus of the Grand Trunk Pacific, was to be its natural outlet on the St.Jawçence.We have not dreamt it, we could cite thousands and thousands of most energetic and peremptory assurances.Now that we know what to expect, it remains to find out and decide if the opposition of the Grand Trunk Pacific will prevail against the inten tions of the promoters of the new \u2018Transcontinental line, whith were so clearly expressed from the begiuning and repeated so often since.\u201d Our congratulations to Le Soleil aro tendered with the greater pleasure be cause its attitude has not always been AYER\u2019S HAIR VI Hale falling cut?Troubled with dandrufi?Want mage hair?An clegant dressing ?logredients : Sun PES WAST SASL We believe doctors endosse this formula, or we would pot put it up.Colo the same, and it is only a {ew weeks GOR the Hair ago that, when we called attention to the Gran] Trunk\u2019s projects as regards Providence, it endeuvoured to explain it away by saying that the Grand Trunk and the Grand Trunk Pacific were not the same thing.In this respect it will Jo no harm to quote Mr.Fielding\u2019s words as reported in Hansard of 1903, in reference to the Grand Trunk Pacific.\u201cWe have not been content that they\u2014the Grand Trunk Railway Company\u2014shall stand behind it; we have required and they have readily consented that they shall be in it and ot it, and form the whole thing.\u201d TWO DIFFERENT BREADTHS OF VIEW Once upon a time the City Council of our staid old town was in danger of being turned inside out, because certain of its members thought to take their own way of adjusting a very minor business transaction.Now the essence of good citizenship in the town is to be treated with like threats of danger, if it dues not cease pressing the claims of the city upon the attention of those who can legitimately further its interests as a port and railway terminus.We have token a resolution to keep awny from the source of that kind of argument, and we intend to keep it.It would only take a word to wend the whole (ues: tion of Quebec's programme of progress into the roar and rattle of party politios in this affair, as far as it ie concerned.Its purpose is to join jasue against promises unfulfilled and further dilatoriness.And any one who says that thers is no need for over- anxiety, has only to take note of the action of the Chairman of our Harbor Commission, sailing for Liverpool at a time when his presence in the city is absolutely imperative.This, of course, will be construed into a personal attack on Mr.J.B.Laliberte, who undoubtedly has hin personal business to look after in Europe.But a personal attack on that gentleman is not in our thoughts.Our attack is on the way public business is being transacted in behalf of Quebec.Is the city to lose its chance again because there is no one to speak up for her?Are we not to ventures s word of advice to those who are to receive our distinguished visitors next week?Perhaps, if nothing be agreed upon at this juncture, the blame will be located, as a make believe, somewhere between those who have spoken out openly and above board nnd those who have been too timid to speak.The Chronicle has chosen to be blamed amongst those of the first-class, nor even now intends to remain silent until something be definitely decided upon.Nor ean the city, as a whole, be drawn aside from the main issue, namely the advancement of Quebec.If the movement be ignored na a something that will take time to consider, or as a something that cannot be taken up, now that Parliament is prorogued, or the Railway Commission is at present too busy in arranging to make Montreal a side-terminus of the Transcontinental, then Quebec may surely know what is in store for her again.If the site for the terminals in Montreal have already been located, there must he some reason for such expedition.If the sites for the terminals in Quebec have not been so far located, there must be some reason why they have not been located.Let us have the terminals therefore located at once, or let us have the reasong why they are not to be located at once.The whole logic of the situation is in a nutsheli, enormous as the consequences are.going to be if something he done, as well as if nothing be done.Something will no doubt be done.But something ought to have been done months ago.And further delays would be more dangerous to the interests of the city\u2014a thousand times more dangerous\u2014than any accusation against the Chronicle and the press generally for being too outspoken.THE TRADE OF THE GREAT LAKES It comes aa a surprise to the man from the East to be an eye-witness of the increasing commerce of the Western Lakes; and to such it in easy to divine what a future there is for the shipping that in time must find its outlet by way of the St.Lawrence, down past Quebec to the ocean.A correspondent, on his way to locate in the West, han told us that, as he passed through the canal at Sault Ste.Won't rub off on frilly things, or stain

no less than 130 steamers wailing their jurn to pass on their way up into Lake Superior with a fest of as many more waiting to pass the other way into Lake Huron.There can be no doubt that the Bt.Lawrence route is by nature the outlet from the Western Lakes; and, if time be taken by the forelock by our Federal Government, in improving the route from the head of Lake Superior through the canals that obviate the recurring rapids, to the channel out into the Gulf and thence to the ocean, it is more than likely to be a successful rival to the Hudson River system.Meantime Quebec Las its own little or great problem to work out in ocon- nection with the export trade {rom the West by rail during winter, as an adjunct to the direct exportation by steamer, while navigation is open.And that little or great problem involves a rivalry of even more pretension that the competition of drifting craft or steamers laden with grain from the West.We have already spoken of the rival ports of Providence und Portland which are said to be in course of further exploitation by the Grand Trunk authorities, and this is a matter which cannot but be viewed with consternation by every Canadian ocean port, as a case of breach of promise.When the Trans continental was first projected, Canadians were given to understand that no attempt would be made to exploit any seaport in the United States at the expense of any of our Canadian seaports.Now we have it reported that the export trade from the Great Lakes is in the way of being directed towards the seaports of the Atlantic Coast that are open all the year round, to the decline of Montreal and the further decline of Quebec.Such rumours are, so far, too attennated to give us much worry about the St.Lawrenos route by steamer or railway; yet they are worth taking note of by those who are not afraid of them.THE TOPIC OF ALLOTHER TOPICS The question which is uppermost in the minds of all who are sincerely loyal to the British Empire and its consolidation ie :\u2014\u201cHow is it going to be with the new monarch?\u2019 There are other questions, such as the personal griel of the widowed and well- beloved Queen Alexandra, the elevation of a third Queen Mary to the throne of England, and the remodel ling of personal conditions in the routine of the court, which share with the above great main question in pub- Ho interest and daily conversation.But all eyes are steadfastly fixed upon the new King.When Edward VIL sucoseded his aged mother, the same solicitude was taken in his very earl- jest movements, There were misgivings then as there are misgivings now.But as was the case with the father so is it likely to be with the son.Such misgivings are more or less miscalculations, with the environment left out in the estimate.King George V.has been brought up a king, and his environment is his own and his subjects\u2019 security.He ie the off-spring of the British Constitution, and has but to follow the line of his father\u2019s and his grandfather's squani- mity to steer clear of administrative or diplomatic involvements.He does not need to be a second peace-maker to be a successful king; though he will no doubt, after being a few months on the throne, indicate kingly qualities which wers not visible during the ten years he was Prince of Wales.Bome find in the political conditions of the day a foreshadowing of troubles for the new King.But we believe that King George will prove himself a constitutional monarch, possibly less obtrusive even than his father was in his dealings with his advisers.There has been no lack of comment amongst the general public as to the absence of any sions of mourning on the outside of the Provincial buildings.When one sees every other public building, and so many stores and private houses draped in memory of our late Sovereign, the contrast appears remarkable, and especially so in view of the sterling tributes to His Majesty which have distinguished the uddress- es of all our politicians.CORNS, CORNS, CORNS.Discovered at last a remedy that is sure, safe, and painless, tnam's Painless Corn Extractor, a prompt, effective, painless

WILL BE DAY OF MOURNING General Holiday to be Proclaimed on Occasion of the Late King's Funeral, \u2018Actording to news received from Ottawa an extra of the Canada Gazette will be issued declaring the day of tbe late King\u2019s funeral as one general mourning and a general boli- day.This will be simultaneous with the despatch of instructions to the various lieutenant-governors for the issuance of the usual proclamations in the Provincial Gazettes which will include arrangements for official re cognition of the Dominions sorrow on the day of the funeral.These \u2018proclamations will include the usual regulations as to mourning.Based upon the precedent made in the case of Queen Victoria in 1901 these will state that \u201cit is expected that all persons upon the present occasion of the death of His late Majesty of blessed and lorious memory, do put themselves into the d t mourning, This full mourning wl be officially worn for 34 days and will be followed by half- mourning for 42 days more.Of agurse, ! the regulations as to court mourning are more drastic, and although they apply chiefly to the court, it is presumed they will apply also to the households of the various viceroys throughout the Empire, so that for the first 36 days the Indies at the various government houses will wear black dresses trimmed with crepe, and black shoes, black feathera and ornaments, while the gentlemen will wear black court dress with black swords and buckles.When the full mourning order is relaxed the ladies will wear black dresses with colored ribbons, flowers, feathers and ornaments, or grev and white dresses with black ribbons, flowers, feathers and ornaments.The gentlemen will continue their mourning insignia until the term is officially declared to be ended.No household appliance in use to-day has received more sincere and hearty testimonials than the Gas Stove, and the keynote of them all is satisfaction, PASSED WITH HONOR.Among the new engineers who

Joseph Picard, that a stock ocom- | pany should be formed on the lines indicated above.A report of the proceedings will be handed to the City Council at ite next meeting, while Mr.G.A.Vandry, president of the Quebec Board ol Trade, and Mr.Jos 'icard, president of the local branch of the Canadian Manufacturers\u2019 Association will bring the matter to the noti ) of the respective bodies, with which they are concerned.Steps will st once be taken for the organization of the company.SALE OF SEATS FOR ARCHAM.BAULT CONCERT OPENS THIS MORNING.The great operatic concert by francis Archambault, baritone, Madame Dora Gilbs, soprano, uuh i.eun Escalais, tenor, will take place on Thursday evening, the 19th just, and tho sale of seats opens this morning st 9.30 o'clock, at the Auditorium box office.It i» very seldom that suol, sb aggregation big «pers artists ubpear together in Quen, god lbe concert will be one of ibe finest evir wiven in this city.Aschambault really began his lyric career not more tban three or four years azo, and du\u201csuz that short spate of time bar sung the leading parts of the best known operas in Italy, Paris, Loudon.New York, and Ros:on vich su.artists as Maik, (\u2018alve, Eam.s, Ser brich, Letraz: ai, Muy Campanani.Madame Dora Gifba i yeums and fascinatisiy bennoie* ust- ist whe has been singing tre suproro ara at the op.ras of Tri ud eiu.The otha a tho Archambault concert is the hunous Franch temor, Leon Escaluis, from the Paris Grand Opera, ant for the art season premier tenor of the Now (r- leans Opera.The prices for this concert will range from 25e.to $1.50.The entertainment will surely be worth twice us much.Prudent patrons would do well to reserve their seats early as the management is sure of a crowded house, Many boxes have already been reserved by prominent citizens.MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCE.The St.Jean Bantiste Society of Quebec has adopted resolution of condolence in connection with the death of King Edward, which have (been forwarded to the Governor-Gen- eral at Ottawa, for transmission 1 to King George V.No household appliance in use to-day has received more sincere and hearty testimonials than the Gas Stove, and the keynote of them all is satisfaction.\u2018 SWORE ALLEGIANCE TO NEW KING\u201d Members of the Q.0, C, H.Took Part in Interesting Ceremony Last Evening.The members of the Quesn'a Own Canadian Hussars, who met for drill last evening at the Drill Hall, took the oath allegiance to thoir new King, according te the military regulations.by Major A.\u20ac.Dobell and the ceremony was an impressive one.At the drili of the Sth Royal Rifles on the previous evening, Lieut.-Col.W.H.Davidson addressed his men in feeling terms in regard to the death of King Edward, and his remarks were received with sympathetic attention by every man on parade.As a mark of mourning, the non-coms.and officers will wear mourning as an expression of their sorrow.It ix understood that the members of the Sth will take the oath of allegisnce to their new commander-in-chief ut the drill to-morrow evening, \u2014_\u2014 With a Gas Stove home comfort takes the place of home drudgery.RECORDER'S COURT.Four prisoners appearcd before the Recorder yesterday, charged with drunkenness.One was fined £20 and costs ar two months\u2019 jail; two, \u20ac and costs or eight days each, and one a wimilar fine or two days.The proprietor of a St.Koch's theatre was fined 840 and costs for keeping open on Sunday.The Gas Stove does everything but think for the cook.Safe, Compact and Always Ready.Besides this matter the important question of shunting cars, and the things ol same, was israel.A ti are at present .P.Rand C, N.R.control the tracks in St.Andrew and Dalhousie streets.The oity will be asked what right and conditions have been accorded to these companies, nnd whether it has power to grant further running rights to other companies in the same localities.Tt was advanced that in many cases the tracks are only used for the siding of empty cars.Another momentous question was that of the valunble service rendered by the Railway Car Ferry Company in crossing care from the south side for ocean export freicht.Considerable delay is caused, it appears, by lack of prompt shunt- | ing, and if the Harbor Commission- | era, or the Q.R.I.& P.Co.could !
