CANADA'S GRAIN ROUTE
HOW THE BELLE ISLE STRAIT MIN
IMIZES THE ADVANTAGE OF
THE CANALS.

st. Johns, N. F.. March (speciaD.-The agitation
in New-York State for deeper canals, in which
Governor Roosevelt has Joined, and the fear that
the commercial supremacy of the port of New
York will be threatened by the prosperity of Mon
treal leaves out of account altogether the advan-
tases which the American outlet possesses over the
Canadian. Though the interior waterways of the
Dominion may be superior those Of the Republic
yet the carriage OF grain to the 'seashore is only
one step in the process Of It's transportation. and
the advantages to Canada inland offset by the
manifold dangers to its ocean borne commerce The
Strait of Belle Isle is the drawback to the
Canadian route. and the objections its navigabll-
ity have been emphasized strongly by the loss of
the big Dominion liner Scotsman last fall This ship
crashed into the rock ribbed shores of the isle
Itself, and added another disastrous wreck to the
already large number OF marine casualties which
stand to the discredt of the route through the
strait. That catastrophe had the effect of causing
several steamship lines to abandon the passage
there. a proceeding which many shipmasters In the
St. Lawrence trade maintain is Imperative IL the
large annual total of losses is to be minimzed
When one considers the question in all its bear
iDgs the wonder Is that the Belle Isle route has
been persisted in long In the face of it's mani
fest disadvantages. 1t has only thing to be
urged in its favor-that 1t is the shortest direct
waterway between the two worlds commercial
centres. This advantage. however. does not offset
tortuous channel, with rugged. merciless coasts
washed by turbulent. treacherous currents
The commercial pre-eminence of the Dominion
depends In large part upon it's providing a regular

freight and passengers to and from Europe. 1t
essential to Canadian prestige and as an advertise
ment of the country that this route should be an
all-Canadian one. Equally imperative it
that it should possess every economy which could
assist in competing with the we'll established routes

PRIVATE CHARITIES INSPECTION
CONFERENCE HELD IN REGARD TO

A conference was held yesterday afternoon at the
Office OF John l.. Cadwallader No 40 Wall-st., be-
tween Commissioner Eugene A. Philbin, represent

secretary OF the State Board of Charities for the
purpose of arriving at an agreement regarding
proposed amendments to the laws affecting the
relation Of the State Board of Charities 10 the pr-
vate haritable institutions.
After the conference Mr.. Philbin said 1t had been
most satisfactory. He added:
There has been n false impression about that the
State Board of Charities wished to dictate TO the
private charities This iGea is opposed 10 our prac
tice. We would rather not have the responsibility
of the private institutions which number one thou
sand in the State
At the conference attention was called to certain
laws in existence affecting charitable institu-
tions and those the conference gave their views
of them We will ask that the law be put in such
shape that our Board will do nothing more than in
so that the Board will have the right to remedy
the evils found upon inspection 1t Is proposed to
do this by vesting in the Supreme Court power to
issue an order remedying the evil.
Mr. Philbin said that the Gerry society not
represented at the conference. and that Mr. Gerry

that the State Board have supervisory powers over

report on railroad construction in Asia Minor

a section which until the last year or two was
absolutely closed TO foreign trade. The railway
projects have also considerable political significance

their lines toward the Indian Ocean. Consul Jewett

there Is abundant tonnage to justify the
building Of the road. This road Is not,
he says, conditioned by a possible road
from Sumpter to Granite. It has its own
country to draw upon, and will scarcely
be affected by such road as Is proposed
at Sumpter. The company is now paying
