A SHORT LINE TO GREAT BRITAIN.
SIR CHRISTOPHER FURNESs's VISIT TO
CANADA TO FURTHER HIS STEAM
SHIP PROJECT

and head of the firm of Furness. Witty & Co., Is
at present IN Canada. his intention being close
an arrangement, if possible. by which the long
projected fast line between Great Britain and
Canadian port may become fact.
In an interview in Montreal Sir Christopher
stated that he and his business associates had the
funds at hand TO proceed with the project; that
the sum required would be in the neighborhood OF
s2500O0o. but that before he would be willing to go
ahead radical changes must be made as regards
the safety Of the route While in Montreal Sir
Christopher Furness was in conference with Lord
Strathcona; indeed, il is stated with probably a
good deal OF truth that il was through the Cana
dian peer that the English shipowner became inter
ested in the prOpect. A fast line between Cana
dian and British ports has for engrossed the
attention of Lord Strathcona, and he has remarked
upon more than one occasion that sooner or later
he was bound TO see the scheme become fact.
Sir Christopher says that LIoyds must greatly en-
large its Canadian connection. and that radical
changes must be made in the lights. signals and
piotage system the entire route. He condemns
out OF hand the present pilOtage system. and Won
ders why the Canadian public stood il all these
years He pointed out the number OF disasters
which had to be credited to the Canadian route
during the present season of navigation and spoke
particularly about the grounding of the British
warship interchangeable Just above Quebec and tina
adverse criticism which this one accident aIona
was bound to create in England.
He declined TO say what Canadian ports he had
In view for the Canadian termini of the line Ha
did say, however. that the bringing of such ships
as it was proposed to build TO Montreal was out

Quebec as a summer port, on the one hand and

THE SUGAR WAR IN THE EAST.
CUT IN MICHIGAN NOT MET BY THE AMERICAN
SUGAR REFINING COMPANY.

In discussing the warfare between the American
Sugar Refining Company and the beet sugar pro
ducers Wallace Z. Willett. of Willett & Gray,
said yesterday:
The sugar fight began in California, between the
American Beet Sugar Company and the Spreckels
Beet Sugar Company, the two largest producers,
and had for it's object the control of the beet sugar
production. which has a market as far east as the
Missouri River. The American Sugar Refining
Company's product at the east also reaches the
Missouri River a circumstance which explains
why the fight started at that point. 1t is by no
means certain that the fight will extend further
east, to Michigan, because the two large inter-
in the territory of the Middle West. The Ameri-
can Sugar Refining Company has allowed the Mich

Sugar Company, and have no alliance with it,
