probable before anything Ike settled con-
ditions can prevail.
H. c. Fuller, another prominent man

ceptionally good business for wooden
manufacturers and does not consider
thas prices are to be as high as many
things, He Ia of the opinion that the
wooden manufacturers are largely rsspon-
slble for the present low prices and be-
lieyes that they should hang together
and take no orders unless there Is some

wa house. Cushing's island. He arrived
Saturday afternoon to spend Sunday
with his family who VIII DO here for the
remainder of the season. Manager Hays

hopes TO be able TO return TO Portland TO-
fore the close OF the season when he can
spend more time here. This 10 the first
summer that his family have spent az
Portland and they are delighted with the
city and vicinity.
Saturday evening MIR. Hays was seen
by a reporter of the TIMES and In
answer to the reporters questions spoke
regarding those interests OF the Grand
Trunk which ara OF especial interest to
Portland.
"what as to the yards in East Deer
inRf" was asked.
THE yards there replied Manager
Hays, "wsre bulls as you know, Ia or
der to avoid the accumulation of busi-
ness in the city proper. The habit for
years was to hold the freight business out
on the line during the winter time. this
being rendered necessary ON account of
there being insufficient room in tho city.
We were obliged to use whatever track
rooms we had at the various stations.
This was great disadvantage Wo can
now hold 1900 car loads in tho yards as
we did last winter whom we had that
number of car loads OF grain in. rhe cars
are now hauled down here and are all
ready for the ships The yard will I've
developed from time to time as our busi-
ness needs it. We have ample room to ex-
pand great deal

How is the summer buslness?''
The passenger traffic all along the
line is better than 1t has been for years.
1t Is improving right along and lock for
Portland to become one Of the greatest
summer resorts in this country. The
people of Canada have always appreci-
ated the beauties Of this part OF the coun-
try.
"The business in the light depart
ment also exceed that of past years.
Canada is more prosperous than have
known it for long time"
what about the rumors that the
Grand Trunk will build another new ele-
vatorf'
az. is only question of time when we
win be obliged to have new one. The
greatest obstacle, however, is as to where
to put 10. We are pretty well crowded
here now. l think that our present one is
equal to any In the country"
Manager hays when asked II there was
any possibility of new Grand Trunk
station In Portland, stated that the pres
emit one, although not modern, fulfilled
all of the requirements of the road. II the
city offered Inducements of any kind, the
