Berry Shipments.

From Colonel DcMahler. who has close tab on
the shipment of berries. We gather that over i60
carloads of berries have been shipped from
Van Buren, up to Friday. The shipments
each day from this OH will decrease. as the
reduced price realized does not Justify very
thorough picking Of the earlier berries. Picking
on the P. D. Scott farm was stopped Wednesday
and preparations for the cultivation of the
fields for another season was entered upon. The
Mitchell berry proves to be the most profitable

EMlGRANT BUSINESS,
Western Lines Deny Having In Any Way
Aided the Grand Trunk-East Bound
Freight Rates.

Chicago. Feb. 22-Ail or the Western lines
! deny In positive terms that they have in
any way aided the Grand Trunk In its feht
against the Canadian Pacific In the matter
OF emigrants. 1t is rot likely that Chair
man Caldwell will be called upon to divert
any traffic from any of the lines in his
committee on account of the Grand Trunk
| traffic at least until after the meeting Of
the advisory committee of the emigrant
clearing house with the Trunk Line, which
will be held on Friday or Saturday of next
week. The Canadian Pacific has been
looking very closely after its interests, but
so far has failed 70 find any tangible proof
that any of the Western lines is favoring
the Grand Trunk at the expense of the
/ Canadian Pacific and In violation OF the
committee agreement. The excessive COM
missions which the Grand Trunk is now
paving makes It plain that either some of
the Western lines are aiding IL or that the
Grand Trunk is paying commission men for
the purpose of dlverting emgrant traffic
from the Canadian Pacific. 1t is paying
commissions which amount to more than
its proportion of the through rate on emf
grant traffic. and, this, in these times of
ltcNos Is hardly possible for any line to
Keep un without outside aid. There Is no
doubt that some of the Western lines are
very aninbly disposed towards the Grand
Trunk, which has, they think, been treated
shabbily by the lines which now form the
Western Passenger Trunk Line committee,
but whoever Is aiding the Grand Trunk. il
anybody Is aiding II, has been exceedingly
adrot in the methods used. The Canadian
Pacific has all Of the committee lines under
suspicion. which simply means that 1t has
not yet obtained a clue to the guilty road.
No action has as yet been taken by the
lines of the Central Traffic Association
towards checking the Generalization in
east bound freight rates. Unless the vol
ume of business from Chicago increases
there Is no great likelihood that any meet
Ing will be called. The cut rates which have
been freely made for the last two weeks
have not been instrumental in bringing
any heavy increase of shipments. ana the
roads are beginning to argue that IL they
get no more grain at is cents than they
were handling at 20 cents they will find 1t
more to their interest to stick to the latter
figure. Grain rates are now being made
anywhere between is and 20 cents, the lat
ter being the nuthoriHel tnriff.
