Grande a part of the Gould possessions,
for control OF the Colorado Midland road.
The primary cause Of the strife is the
new Moffat road from Denver to Salt

ton.
When the NIoffat road refused to grant
the Rio Grande an interest in the survey
of the proposed line from Kremmling TO
Dotsero, which viii invade territory
hitherto held exclusively by the latter
road. the Rio Grande in retaliation set
about finding a means Of shortening its
line TO Salt Lake. By building a line
direct from Denver TO some point on

of travel could be saved, aud the Rio

London. May 5.-The opposition to
the proposal of the chancellor of the

duty on grain. which has been voiced
by numerous chambers Of agriculture.
crystallized in a meeting of the Asso-
eiated Chambers of Agriculture in Lon
don today With only three dissen-
tents. the large assemblage. after a
heated attack on Mr.. Ritchie's ''wob-
bling policy in connection with this
tax" passed a resolution strongly con-
demning the proposed action and ap-
pointing a deputatiOn to call on Pre-
nier BalfOur and confer with him on
the subject. II is not believed the pro-
test will have any effect.
Answering a question in the house
today. Mr.. Richie held out little hope
of the millers getting refund of the
duties paid on imported grain which
they may still have on their hands
when the tax is abolished July l.
Mr.. Ritchie added, however. that he
was anxious 70 prevent any hardship 10
the trade and had therefore given per
mission for the bonding of grain in the
interim. and had instructed the customs
officials to make the operation of bond
ing as cheap and easy as possible. and
with the permission of the house h
proposed to remit the x per cent ware
housing charge.
