Three Hundred Boats Rotting at 4utra-
lo-Railroads Garry the Freight
Buffalo, May 30.-Three hundred
canal boats are lying rotting in the wat
er at Buffalo as the result of the low
freight rates on grain to New York The
shipments Of grain from the west are

died $500, 600 bushels, yet out of this
the canal has had only three boatloads
Notwithstanding the very low rates Of
fered by the boatmen--l 1-3 cents for
wheat and 11sc for oats. The explana-
ton given is that the railroads have
agents in every corner of the country
and by added facilities are able to keep
cutting down the rates until a scale has
been reached which is ruinously low.
1t is further said that 1000 bushels are
now being put into one car. while four
or five hundred bushels We're considered
