The Freight Blockade on the Grand
Trunk.

In this city there has been considerable
comment In consequence Of the large amount
OF freight for foreign shipment accommodating
In the yards of the Grand Trunk Railway
here while local aid Western freights to this
point are delayed. But the cause of grievance
Is one of annual occurrence and it is no
worse at present than il has been for years.
In Canada, and Montreal in particular, how
eve, the present blockade has been SO disas-
trous to business and the policy OF The Grand
Trunk so inimical to local interests that the
Corn Exchange Association Of that city has
Ia zen the matter into consideration and as the
result of an Investigation in the causes and
effects If the policy Of the Grad Trunk and
Allan Steamship Company, has published a
pamphlet which contains many facts and
tatemen is of interest to this section.
In the first place the report speaks of the
annual lockout by the Grand Trunk Rail
way of the merchants of Montreal from
freiyhting facilities eastward" and complains
that it begun somewhat earlier than usual
and has operated with exceptional SEVERITY
because the railway officials bad continually
promised them unusual and excessive tacil-
tiles for moving freight from Montreal east
ward. In co.'s quence of these promises,
Montreal merchants continued their ship
ments to that point from the West until they
had on the 10Th of November 1,037, 100
bu .hels OF grain, 9,2Os barrels of -four, and
other prod uce in proportion, while theil
shipments eastward were nil.
The principal grounds of complaint are
that the Grand Trunk managers scriminate
against Montreal merchants both n giving
preference and lower rates to Western ffeights
or freights from competing points west Of
that city. For instance, the Montreal mer-
chant who buys car Of -four at Paris IN
Ontario aud first ships II to that city and
then 10 Halifax has TO pay SAP, while the
party shipping direct from Paris to Haifa,
pays but Sis. The following figures are
also given 10 show the discrimination against
Canadian shippers in favor of those in the
West, to Liverpool uia Portland by the Grand
Trunk Railway and steamships:
