long all-rail route from Winnipeg to
tidal water. It seems to me that it
will be difficult to carry grain over
this division in the winter at freight
rates that will be profitable to both
the railway and the shipper. The
lines working expenses will be so
heavy that either unusually high
freight rates will have to be charged,
or else the railways loss will be GER
tain and immediate. If high rates
are imposed, the line will not be pat
ronized and If low rates are charged,
the line will lose money, so that it
does not appear to be profitable as an
investment either way you view it.
Cost of Breakages.
Coming back to the winter ex-
penses of a road, I may say that in
January and February Of this year the
cost to our road thru breakages was
twice what it was in any other two
months Of the year. The intense frost
was responsible for this extra outlay,
and this extremely cold weather may
reasonably be looked for all winter
along the line of the G.. T. P.'s Winni-
peg-Quebec division. These break
ages will mean that the G.. II. P. will
have to establish repair shops along
the division in question. Even one
who is not intimately acquainted with
railway matters viii nave some lued
as to the cost Of half a dozen or a
dozen Of these repair shops.
Another important item of expense
is the coal. The bill for the latter in
the winter will be exceedingly large
on the G.. T. p. On any Canadian line
the coal bill is materially increased
in winter, as firemen have to use much
more Of it than in summer in order tc
keep steam up.
