WILL REDUCE RATES

THING.
The SOulanEes Canal, Which Will Be
Opened in August, Will. by It's
Operation. Reduce the Cost of
transporting Lake Freights to
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. May Con
template With Qualification the
Prospect of II New and Cheaper
Route to the Atlantic

Chicago, June .i-The Record SAYS:
The Canadian government will omen
Soulanges canal in August. and by it's
operation the cost of transporting lake
freiglrts to tide-watrr will be reduced
beyond the possibility of profitable
competition by any other existing
route. The cost of transporting wheat
via the lakes and Erie canal will be
reduced one-half. The same is equally
true of all other products destined for
transatlantic ports from the territory
tributary to the great lakes. In this en-
terprise the Canadian government has
expended over SG2.UUU,GO0. Besides
this there has been expended from
revenues for repairs and betterments
neough to make Il total of S7O.OOO,DOO.
The United States government has
paid out but S40,O@G. OaG for all pur-
poses ON the gr.:,. tc:>us, their harbors
and connections, sitce the beginning OF
the government.
1t is generally accepted by shippers
that liverpool makes the price of cash
wheat, and that every cent saved on
the cost of delivering it at Liverpool
means that much more to be paid the
owner of the wheat at the time it is
sold and shipped. AS tile saving OH
wheat will be somewhere near ; cents
bushel, the added returns OF the
farmers of the Northwest TO rthe sim
gle item of wheat would in one year
amount to S6,OOO00O, On other eN-
ports Of his producing he would proba-
bly, save twice as much more i'll freight
charges. This. it is thought. will ope-
rate to open the eyes of the farmers
about the great lakes to the Importance
of a deep waterway TO the Atlantic
which would still further increase the
value of their droducts.
While the Northwest may contem-
plate with qualification the prospect OF
a new and cheaper water route 10 the
Atlantic. New York city will lose much
of its enormous export shipping busl-
ness, which amounts to somewhere
near 100000 900 bushels Of grain an
nnally. 1t is asserted in the highest
quarters that the rate TO eNW York VIA
the Erie canal cannot possibly be re-
duced to a figure that will anywhere
near meet the Montreal figure. ana II
it be attempted the prediction is made
that the Canadian charges will be re-
duced to . cents per buShel or less for
wheat
