MUTUAL TELEPHONE COMPANY.

The annual meeting of the Mutual
Telephone Company's directors was
called for this morning, but up to
noon a quorum had not been obtain
ed. However, there was an informal
consideration of affairs by those who
did attend. From the report it APP
pcared that the receipts for the past
quarter exceeded the expenditure
by eight or nine hundred dollars.
For the purpose of clearing off the
outstanding debt of the Company, a
proposal to sell additional shares
found favor with the directors pre-
sent. About 1900 shares of the
authorized capital stock remain UNI
sold. In answer to an enquiry, a
member of the Board said amalga-
nation with the other company is
not thought of.

products to Australasia during 1884,

with the object of ascertaining his
views on our great national high
way, and of our Northwest country.
Mr.. Benjamin expressed himself as
highly pleased with his trip. He
never saw the country looking bet
ter. They went as far as the Penn
bina mountain range in Southern
Manitoba, and found the country as
well settled as the northern part of
Dakota. The Mennonite settlements
were great success. Speaking OF
the crops, he said they looked ex-
ceedingly we'll throughout the conn
try through which they travelled,
and the probabilities were that the
farmers of Manitoba would have
surplus of 100000 bushels of
wheat for export this year. Re-
ferring to the Rebellion he said that
one did not see any effects Of it to
speak Of, along the line of the road,
except the Bell farm, the managers
of which had sent good many
horses for use in the transport of
troops and provisions. The party
went as far rs the summit of the
Selkirks, going three miles beyond
the end of the track, which is laid
ZIG miles west of Calgary. From
the end of the track to the Onder-
donk section the road is nearly all
graded, the laying of the track being
delayed by reason Of bridge which
is being built over the Stony river.
The character of the road was first
class, both as regards permanent
way and equipment. The heaviest
grade on the road is on the west
side of the Rocky mountains, but
the grades as q whole are very
easy, SO much so that if passengers
were not told of the fact they would
not perceive it while travelling on the
road. He had seen heavily loaded
freight trains of twenty-three cars
drawn by one engine come into
Winnipeg while he was there. Re-
verting to the business outlook he
said the merchants of Winnipeg
were in splendid spirits as to the
prospects of trade, and tho appear
ance of the shops and streets when
he left Winnipeg on Saturday indi'
