ing question. Probably the lights would
cease to twinkle, and it's holiday cele-
brations be no more. A million dol
lars Is spent on champagne along old
Broadway every New Years eve and
proportionately large sums every night
In the year What the elimination OF
champagne would mean to Broadway
ties was indicated by the wall OF sor-
row which they raised over the in
creased price due to the new tariff.
But lacking 1t altogether the Great
White Way would much resemble por-
ridge without salt.

So far as the expectation Of grain is
concerned, New York, the greatest port
in the United States, is practically
dead. For nearly thirty years Euro
pean grain shipments from this point
have been steadily decreasing, and the
freight rates steadily increasing until
today grain shipments from this port
have practically ceased. AS a la t
resort in the effort TO place New York
In the grain exporting map once more
an appeal Is to be made to the Inter
state Commerce Commission. So seri-
Gus has the condition become that at
the present time, in the middle of the
open season, when grain should be
moving outward heavily steamships
leaving Montreal are fully ladden,
while those from this port are practic-
ally empty. At least fifteen big grain
elevators are standing idle here, and
unless some radical change is soon ac-
complished, 1t will not be many years
before New York has no exoort trade
in grain left
