Bareux At the request of the Chaieman, Mr.G.E.Marquis, Chief of the Provincial Bureau oi a lengthy speech tol such a bureau to the city of Quebes and strongly urged the crestion of one at the City Hall which cold be ynown as the Bureau of Statistics and Information.He said thet at the present time it is impossible to tell just how many different industries exist in Quebec; the department at the Parliament Buildings of which he is in control keeps a record of the total number only and through the creation of a civic department of this kind, it would be then possible to state the exact number of shoe factories, bakeries, tanneries and the like.The Quebec Exposition.The Quebec Provincial Exposition and the holding of it as usual this fall was discussed at length by vari ous members of the Board and of the kxposition Commission.AB were strongly in flavor of its continuance snd a resolution was proposed by Mr Lou's Letourneau, M.P.P., and sec: ovded by Mr, Joseph Cote asking the renewal of the Board of Trades request to the City Council of two y:ars ago, to make the holding of the Jixpos tion an annual event, as both geatiemen pointed out the value of it to Quebec as an advertising medium and in this they were upheld by Mayor Lavigueur, Mesors.Joseph card and George Morriset, the lat ter gentieman giving some fluresg relative to the receipts and expenditures during the past seven years and com- \"pared them wih these of the Toronto , Exposition which showed that Quebec compares very well.Mr.Picard said he was not at all discouraged with the results of the past two years and that he would not be surprised i a , defic\u2019t was again shown this year and .even next year, but what he was cer- {tain of is that the Fxposition will be a very paying proposition in the near future, and though: that if it was d'scontinued it would mean a big disaster ior Quebec.+ Mayor Lavigueur sa'd he was pleas: tod to see Mr.Letourneau br ng his resolution before the Board and like Mr, Picard and the other speakers on the question, disapproved of the suspension of the annual event even fof one year.+ Mr.O.W.Bedard, who also favored ithe holding o the Exposition as usual, then placed the resolution be | fore the meeting for adoption and it | was carried unan\u2018mously.Mr.Marien, the newly appointed | Trade Commissioner, was introduced | meeting by the he stated that he intends to make Quebec the equal in industries of any | city in Canada.It was announced by Mr.Bedard that Mr.Marien will assume the office of Trade Commis sioner on February 1st, Quebec's Opportunities.Mr.T.M.Kirkwood, the well { known shipbuilder of Three Rivers and Toronto, spoke on the opportunities which are about to present themselves to the business men of Quebec, Mr.Kirkwood said: \u201c1 have been requested to say a few words as to my opinion of the future of the city and port of Quebec.\u201cAlthough a citizen of Toronto, 1 heave always taken a great interest in your elty, because my mother was a native of Quebec, and because through my shipbuilding operations in Three Rivers I have had considerable exper- lence with the workingmen of this Provines, sad have learned to admire the obit], the patience, the industry and the good sense of the French- Canadian artisen.\u201cIn my opinion, Quebec is on the eve of a very great industrial and commercisd development.Three resent ts are, in my opinion, going to entirely change your commercial position 1 They ate: L\u2014The new Transcontinental Railway brings you 200 miles closer to the wheatfields of Manitoba and the other Prairie Provinces, and cheapens the cost of bringing the grain of the Northwest to Quebec, by three cents per bushel, besides putting vou in the position of being a new distributing point for the import and the export trade of the Prairie Provinces, and in suving half a day's thne for the mails sad the passengers crossing the Atlantic for those Provinces.8\u2014The wonderful new bridge you fave just built across the St.Lawrence removes Quebec from its winter the Northwest will now come this way in winter as well as in summer.3.\u2014The great graving dock you have just finished\u2014the largest in the world\u2014makes it safe for the largest steamers afloat to come to Quebec, and of safety in case of accident.You have deep water in your harbor for the largest of steamships.and you are 500 miles closer to Liverpool than New York is.\"With all these striking advantages \u2014and they are all new in your favor, lt fooks to me that a new era in your commercial history is bound to come.But you must have better port facit- fties\u2014the docks and elevators that you have are excellent.but they are altogether too limited to do a much larger business than you have today You should have shighuilding.T submitted a project to your Board some months ago for buMding thity wooden steamships here, and you approved it.Since then.the war hus come to 3

rolling mifs Ia Quebec and roll these plates for your own shipyards?Tt would not require « very great capita, and there is enough scrap Jeon to be had in Canada to keep such a plant going, it you cannot get suitable ore within a reasonable distance.This would be » splendid industry for your city and would meke your steel shipbuilding permanent.1! cont should prove too costly » fuel for
