MASTER FEATS OF
THE RAILROAD WORLD.

Six years ago the country rang with
the accomplishment of the most bril-
liant and efficient trauscontinental rail-
road building of history.
This year the eyes of the nation are
turned to an even more notable active
ment-the placing of 440 miles of main
line across the Continental Divide
under electrical operation.
Both achievements are work of the
same railway-it was the Chicago,
Milwaukee & ST. Paul that set new
record in railway building, by con-
structing in less than three years a
splendid steel highway across the
plains, mountains, uplands and valleys
that lie between the Missouri River
and Puget Sound. With series of
brilliant engineering triumphs this
new steel highway was laid directly
through the heart of the Rocky, Bitter
Root and Cascade Mountains.
The result is that the Milwaukee
today is the shortest line to the Pacific
North Coast, with lowest grades and
easiest curves, and leads directly
through the greatest extent of noun
tain scenery on the continent.
Again it is the Milwaukee" that
definitely ushers in the new era in
railroading the era of the electric To-
connective. Already "The Olympain"
and THE Columbian" are being oper-
ated electrically over the first complet-
ed unit of lis miles, and soon they will
be so operated over the entire electri-
fed district, extending from Harlow
ton. Mont, to Avery, Idaho, distance
of 440 miles.
1t has always been the aim of this
railway to furnish service better than
the best obtainable elsewhere. Every
travel delight and comfort is yours il
you travel on the Milwaukee" to the
Pacific North Coast.

way.

CONDITIONS IN THE CANARY
ISLANDS
Adverse Effect OF Diminished Tourist Traffic
and the Closing of Europ an Market for
Insular Products.
By Jose Benitea y Ftguoroa, Special Cor
respondent of DUNs INTERNATIONAL REVIEW
at Santa Cruz de Ient9ife.

The two towns of the Canary Islands, Santa
Cruz de Teuerife Che capitnD and Las
Painas, have felt the effects of the European
war ~acutely. Their two sources of wealth
the steamship ira fife between Europe and
America, and tbs shipment Of agricultural
produce to England, Frauce and Germany
have been SO dimialr he'd that the economic
crisis which began TO be felt nearly two years
ago still continues. The scarcity of ships,
the high freight rates and the restrictions
placed on importations by countries that
formerly were large consumers of the pro-
ducts of the archipelago have bad o depreEs-
ing effect on practically every class OF business
and Industry. The small craft that piled
between the seven islands of this group,
and the labouring classes that formerly were
kept busy by the maritime traffic of all des-
criptions, in handling the freight and coaling
vessels, have little to do.
Plior 10 the outbreak of the war it was not
unusual for from f8 to 20 passenger steam
ers a day 10 visit Santa Ciuz or LAS Palmas.
During the last year and u half frequently
there have been days at n time without u
steamer dropping anchor at either of these
ports. Not only has the very considerable
revenue from tourists vanished, but the
islands have suffered from q shortage of gro
ceries, cereals and other necessaries that have
TO be imported. 10 improve me SITUATION
the insuIAr government has inaugurated the
construction of several important public
works.
As u consequence of this depression mer-
chants have allowed their stocks to decrease
until the supplies of the following commodi-
ties are very low: lard, butter, common soap,
candles, leaf tobacco, cheese, alcohol, paper
of oil kinds, fancy goods in general, common
china and glassware, hardware, tiles, cement,
and muny other lines.
Owing to the diminished market for the
ordinary produce of the islands the charao-
ter of the agriculture is changing. Grains
and potatoes are now being raised, and in
this way n certain REIMBURSEMENT of economic
conditions is gradually taking place.-Dwe's
