Arrangements Made by the (.P.R.to Handle What is Brought Forward.Shere is one part of the Dominion where, as a direct result of the recent jump in the price of wheat, the farmers are\u2014to use the time-honorad phrase used by the rural correspondent when rain has come after a long drought\u2014\u2018\u2018jubilant.\u201d That part Manitoba.There is a good, solid reason, too, why they should be jubilant, for they will, in consequence of the rise in the price of their staple product, be now able to shake themselves entitely free of the debt with which they got loaded during the boom years of 1882-3, get out of the clutches of the implement men, the Winnipeg merchants and the mortgagees, and get well on the way to proximate irdependence and ultimate competence, if not actual wealth.The despatches state that, apart al- iN together from the rise in wheat in Chicago, New York and Liverpool, another influence, which very appreciably benefits the Manitoba farmer, is is at work.There is a sharp riv alry be- between the two great milling companies of the West, the Ogilvies and the Lake of the Woods Company.These two firms must have a sufficient quantity of \u2018\u2018Manitoba No.1 hard\u2019\u2019 on hand to keep their mills go- tng, and to supply the orders which they have ahead.Now, the crop of '96 has not been as large, by a good deal, as that of \u201993, and there is sure to be a heavy demand on it, by and by, for export purposes.Consequently, the rival companies are vying with each other as to which shall soonest secure what it requires, and so escape the danger of being pinched or caught \u2018\u2018short\u2019\u2019 in the future.The result is a marked contrast between the prices paid for wheat last year and those paid this year at points in Manitoba, and that contrast is such as cannot fail to be gratifying in the highest degree to the farmers of the Prairie Province.For example, wheat that only brought 42 cents per bushel on Oct.22nd last year at Delor- aine, is selling on the same date, this year at 73 cents, The same wheat that last year, only brought a little over 40 cents at Morden, this year brings.66 cents.In fact, all over the province there is an average increase of 50 per cent.The immediate result of this very decided increase in price is, of course, a rush of the farmers to market their wheat, and a consequent largely increased pressure on the transportation facilities of the railway.Fortunately for \u2018the farmers of Manitoba, the Canadian Pacific management has proved equal to the occasion, and the \u2018rush?\u2019 is met with ease.All the wheat delivered to the company is promptly shipped to its destination.The C.P.R., last year, in anticipation of an exceptional crop, made ex- reptional preparations for shipping it, and did so without a hitch.This year, notwithstanding the very considerably smaller quantity of wheat available for shipment, the preparations made were as thorough as those of last year, and are proving as efficient.Enquiries made of Mr.G.M.Bos- worth, freight traffic manager of the C.P.R., elicited the following facts: For the six days ending the 19th inst., the deliveries at the elevators in Manitoha last year were (bushels).\u2026.980,000 For the week ending the same day this year.860,000 Car loads shipjed during same week last year.1,366 During same week this FEAL.cere were mer en eee 1,093 Now, this large quartity of wheat, though but little less in volume than the deliveries and shipments of last year, has been handled with the greatest ease and without ircurring the slightest delay in the grain reaching the market.In marked contrast to this ig the position of the farmers in the wheat- growing districts traversed hy the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific, and other American roads.Those lines are, at the present time, suifering from a car famine, and the consequence is that the farmers cannot get their grain to market at the time they want to sell, and are thus exposed to present disappointment and pos- eible ultimate loss, simply because the management of the roads on which the same time there is nn danger they depended for prompt transportation of their produce allowed themselves to be caught napping.To show how thoroughly equipped the C.P.R.was for just such an emergency as has arrived, Mr.Bos- worth states that the company has built 600 new box cars this season.and forwarded nearly all of them to Superintendent Whyte, of the Western Division, at Winnipeg, and they are building still more.Mr.Whyte, according to Mr.Bosworth's statement, must have, at least, 4.000 cars at his disposal now, and he ought.certainly, with those, to be able to meet all demands made on him.\u2018In \u2018short,\u2019 said Mr.Bosworth.\u201ceverything is proceeding in a mm- ner most satisfactory to the com- panv and to the farmer of the Northwest,\u201d Farmeis are Thoroughly Enjoying the Seramble for Wheat.FIXING OF THE GRAIN STANDARDS.The Board Meets in Winnipeg Today - A london Wheat Broker Discusses the Present Wheat Situation.Winnipeg, Oct, 20 \u2014Winnipeg grair.operators and speculators have large 1ly increas>d their bank accounts in wlieat speculation lately, and there js great activity and excitement on the Winnipeg Grain Exchange these days.The great rivals, the Ogilvies and I.eke of the Wooils Companies are still at war, and local wheat prices are still kept up to the top noteh by the rival milling companies.The position of affairs is that these companies think the crop is short, and they are eager to get all the wheat they can.In other words they must have it, though it comes high.The farmers of Manitoba and the Northwest can grand this competition as long as the milling companies can, The good fortune of the {farmers is making things hum in this country, and increased prosperity id noticed on every hand.Among the grain trade there is much interest centred in the meeting of the Grain Standards Board tomorrow.There is, it is true, an undercurrent of feeling that everything will come out all right, but at the same time there is anxiety among the grain men regarding the radical changes of classification now being gazetted by the Dominion Goverh- ment.There is every reascn to believe that the Standards Board will move promptly in the direction of inducing the Government to cancel its propositions, but should there be a hitch or delay the 1esullt may be a pretty badly disorganized and demoralized grain trade.If next Saturday\u2019s Canada Gazette is allowed to appear with the official notice of the changes they will then become unalterable law, and the new classifications must prevail, A delay on the part of the board or continued stuhbornness on the part of the authorities at Ottawa will hopelessly complicate matters.One of the complications by the way would De that this season of the single classification of No, 1 hard wheat there would be no less than three «lis- tinct and separate grades.There would he No.1 old wheat (the crop of 1893) of which a large quantity still remains.There would be No.1 hard wheat of this year's crop graded under the existing act (standard of 1895) and there would be No.1 hard wheat under the new classification now being gazett>d.It will be a sweet muddle all round.The grain standards board will assemble at the Board of Trade building to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock, Immediately on organization these will ba laid before the board for prompt action the whole question as to what classification should prevail and then as a matter of detail, whether the changes being gazetted should go into force this year in any case.In other words, the idea is that if the (rovernment cannot see the injustice cf these proposad changes, it will at least Le able to discern the palpable injustice of Lringing them into force in the middle oi the giain season, when a very large percentage of the crop has been bought and sold under the existing classidcations, After action has been taken in this regard, which action will be immediately communicated to the Government, the board will proceed to examine the samples and fix the standards.The eastern representatives grain standarils board They are M.and J.Ion the are on hand, Melaughlin, C.PB.Watts, Spink, of Toronto, and T.A.Crane, and O.M.Gould, ef Montreal.The

room of the Board of Trade at noon yesterday to protest against the action of the railway companies in making winter freight rates operative on and after November 2nd.For several years these rates have not been put into effect until about the dnte of the closing of navigation, but this year, on short notice, the date was made as above.The council of the Board of Trade considered the matter at a special meeting on Saturday, but as it was of such great importance decided to call the present general meeting of the board.Mr.Robert Bickerdike, president of the board, was in the chair, and explained the object for which the meeting had been called, The secretary read a lengthy correspondence on the subject between the board and the companies, Mr.James Crathern following resolution :\u2014 \u201cThat this meeting greatly regrets the action of the Grand Trunk Railway Company and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company in giving notice that their winter freight rates will become effective on Nov.2, mer- Lui chants and manufacturers being gen- proposed the erally agreed that the increase of freight rates ut that early date would involve serious interference and hindrance tc the business and trade of this city.\u201cThat contracts have been made for the delivery of goods based upon the present railway freight rates, and that some of these goods are due to arrive in Montreal by steamers leaving Liverpcol and other transatlantic purts as late as the first week of November, and that if the railway freight rates be advanced on the date announced the Montreal importers will suffer loss.\u2018That in the United States the railway companies make no distinction between summer and winter freight rates, the same rate prevailing throughout the year, to the great advantage of the business communities of that country.That this meeting therefore asks (1) That the Granii Trunk Railway Company and the (\u2018anadian Pacific Railway Company will withdraw their joint notice making winter freight rates effective on Nov.2, and prolong the present rates on Nov.19 inclusive, or until the close of navigation.(2) That both railway companies will consider, with a view to its adoption in (Canada.the United States system of the same freight nates in summer and winter, it being believed that settled freight rates throughout the year would greatly facilitate the general business of this city.\u201d He thought it a very short-sighted poliey Lo impose winter tarilfs at this earl: date.Mr, Henry Miles said that if the wi:hes «i the meeting met with no better results than the representations of tle Council it could be brought be- tore the Railway Committee of the Prive Council, and it the meeting would heartily support energetic action in that direction he would suggest bringing before that body the discrimination in rates against Mont- , 1896.satisfaction Beyond dispute \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014mmmm.The Travelers, nariera.is the most successful Accident

per day: carpenter, 7%e to $1; blacksmith, about the same, and a mason $1.23 at the outside.As a contrast he quotes these prices for fcod: Flour, $10 to 312 per 100 1bs., butter, 60¢ to 70\u20ac & 1b.: cheese, 10c to 15c a 1h.,, hams and ysmnxed meats, about H0c per Ib.In addition, he lays trees uptn the diseases due to the climate and earnestly wams Cana- disns against going to Brazil.\u2018Al the Canadians who have gone to Brazil vi!ll see,\u2019\u2019 he says, \u2018\u2018that the poorest hergar in Canada is better off than those who have a capital of f10,000 ar $15,000 in Brazil.I will wocer my life against five cents that ll the (Canadians who have gone thare will he glad to return to their country within two years.\u201d Ta Patrie, discussing the proposition to decorate the Nelson monu- wert on the 20th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar, mentioned the fact that the petition to the city Read Committee was signed by Ma- {or Lahellr, of the 65th Battalion, and then sald: \u2018(This Mr.Labelle, Is he English ot French?One thing is certain\u2014that tn our hearts, we descendants of France, have too much love for France, too much national pride, and too much respect for the hlood which courses throngh our veins, to allow ourselves to cover with flowers the hero of Trafalgar, still less to be forced to do so.That such a thing may take place in England, we do not deny.But that it should take place in the Province of Quebec, on a square which has the name of Jacques Carifr, is an outrage.\u201d\u2019 On the subject of Canadian {inde pendence J.a Patrie, taking the opportunity to reply to an article \u2018by the Hamilton Times, takes direct objec tion to the statement by the Times that we should not seek for independence until Canada had a population equal to that of Great Britain at present.Continuing, it says: \u201cThe English yoke prevents our making treaties of commerce and our relations with foreign nations are supervised and directed by England, which always looks after its own interests first, and only occupies itself with ours when it has time.The English yoke compels our entanglement In difficulties, such as that which has provoked the Venezuelan embroglio, and which endangered our friendly relations with the United States, who are now preparing to fortify their frontiers, and are studying the best means of invading our territory tn case of war with England.The English yoke places our courts at the mercy of the justice of London; it imposes a governor upon us without consulting our peopla upon the choice; it imposes a general upon us without consulting our advantage; It compels us to enter upon works of armament and fortifications, of which we have no need, because only the largest fortresses and the most terrible weapons would ever put us on an equal footing with the nation of 70.000,600 souls who live in the neighboring Republic.The interests of England are not our interests, and the sooner that we shatter the bords which unite us to that country, the better it will be,\u2019 L\u2019Evenement takes issue with L\u2019E- lecteur upon the questions before the brovince at the coming elections.It accuse: L'Ele-teur ot endeavoring to prove that the Quebec Government is responsible for all the actions and sayings of the ultra-Tories in Ontario, for all the ultra-fanatics of the West and for all the writings of the Orange press, and adds: \u2018No intelligent elector will take these affirmations of the Liberal organ seriously.The devotion of Hon.Mr.Flynn and bis colleagues to French-Canadian interests and to Catholic interests is too well known to our population.for any of them to entertain for an Instant a suspicion that they entertain any sympathy with the Orange- men of Ontario.The only thing on which L'Electeur depends to support ideas of this nature is the fact that the Conservative chiefs at Ottawa mre now proceeding with the reorganization of the party.There is nothing in this that should surprise our confrere, for after the defeat of June 23.this organization became neces sary.But on what does L\u2019Flecteur depend for the declaration that this re-organization is made in view of the coming elections in the Province of Quebec?The Conservative party at Ottawa is now working to reconquer the ground which it lost on June 23rd last, and the Coneervative party at Quebec seeks to hold that which it won on March 8, 1892.This 18 legitimate.The cause is not the same, however, and the principles at stake are diiferent.\u201d La Presso, commenting upon the fremen\u2019s funeral, lays stress upon the alleged fact that no flags were at half-mast on any of the buildings in the commercial portion of Montreal, west of Place d\u2019Armes.Le Monde reproduces Mr.G.W.Stephens* letter upon the financial tondition of the city, published in the iTerald, and adds: \u201cLet us not be deceived, this letter of Mr.Stephens will render singularly difficult the miesion of the delegates which the Council proposes to send to Quebec.Montreal has allowed itself to be put Into tutelage, or even under a cura- inrship like a prodigal.And these : cu ! *erdictions are very difficult to re- Sexton

stretching himself at full length upon the unoccupied portion of the oounter, lie talking to the men who chanced to drop in after their day's work.So Alec sat down in the little sitting room just back of the tavern parlor, and while \u2019Lisbeth and Mrs.Higgine cleared away the dishes and washed them he entertained the children.They were shy of him at first, but they bad a great reapeot for his personality.When he went into the aitting room, at 'Lisbeth\u2019's suggestion, to read the morning paper, the children all followed him with à certain dignified reserve, and taking their places on upright chairs pretended to be reading, too, though they were constantly oassing inquiring glances at Alec.There were three of them\u2014James, who was 14 and quite a lad and took care of the garden for his mother when not in school ; Bessie, who was 10, a romping, affectionate child, and Baby Flo, who was 6 years old.She dearly loved to lounge on somebody's knee.For five minutes she retained her reserved position in the upright chair, reading a book which she held upside down.But at the end of that time she grew weary of this and sidling shyly up to Alec rested her chubby arms on his crossed knees.He raid nothing, nor did he even look at her, but he pot his arm about her as he went on reading, and thus encouraged rhe was soon riding on his foot.When Beseie saw what a good time Flo was having, she came and wanted to be taken up in Alec's lap, and Jim stood a little way off, prepared to make some wise remarks on gardening.So Alec was soon obliged to abandon bis paper and give bis strict attention to the children.A little later \u2019Lisbeth came in and sitting down not far from Alec began talking with him in a friendly way about how he liked the country, and where he had lived and what he was planning to do.The unpleasantness of his entry into the village was apparently quite forgotten.He seemed suddenly to have found a home and affection, even if of a humble kind, and for the first time since he had left the city he felt content.The worry and the work and doubtful struggle had wearied him out, but now he was getting a genuine rest.He had a little vantage ground on which he could stand for a time and reconnoiter the enemy\u2014that most malignant of enemies, fate.But soon Alec found that he was plunged immediately into another drama than Lis own, in the thought of which he quite lost sight for the time of his own troubles.There was a sound of stumbling feet in the passage, a hurried rap at the little door, and a somewhat stooped but fine looking man of 30 or more made his entrance.When he saw Alec, ne hesitated and seemed dlsdom~ terted, but recognizing him in a moment as the young man who had come into the store he gave a quick glance at \u2019Lisbeth, who immediatley introduced him to Alec as George Marsten, the blacksmith.He had a elear, open face, blue eyes, ahd a patient, not altogether bappy expression.He had evidently come to see \u2019Lisbeth, but he talked pleasantly and kindly to Alec instead.He was educated and well read, and bad very interesting and common sense notious about most subjects of human thought and endeavor.From time to time he gave hungry glances at \u2019Lisbeth, and she sat npright in her chair and scarcely gave him a casual look.In two hours he took his leave, and Alec fell to thinking of him.This was no doubt \u2019Lisbeth\u2019s lovca But clearly she gave him no enocurage- ment, not because she did not like him, but because for some reason she judged it not wise.Perhaps she felt too much the responsibility of her father\u2019s family.Aleo looked at her and pitied her.She noticed his pitying glanoe, and turned her head quickly away as if to hide some tear, but in a moment he was gone to bed, and afserward \u2019Lisbeth gave no sign of having guessed his knowledge of her heart.CHAPTER XL | HE GOES TO CHURCH.When Alec awoke the next morning and found the sun shining warmly in at his window and realized that it must be near 8 o'clock, though he had not yet been called, he remembered that it was Sunday.There came a rap at his door and he heard Jim's voice, and a moment later Jim entered, carrying on one arm what seemed like a pile of fresh linen.\u2018\u201c \u2019Lisbeth sent these up to you, if you\u2019d be kind enough to accept them,\u2019\u2019 said Jim awkwardly, standing on one foot and trying with might and main to deliver correctly the polite message \u2019Lis- beth had sent.\u2018\u2018She thought p\u2019raps your Sunday clothes hadn't come yet, and she asked father to send these up to you, if you\u2019d like to wear them to meeting.\u2019\u2019 \u2018\u201cTell your sister she's a regular trump.It was awfully geod of her, awfully good.Tell her she\u2019s the queen of hearts, or whatever you think she'd like,\u201d\u2019 he ended, suddenly wondering if cards were approved in this New England family.It did not take him long to put on bis new clothes.They made hima laugh at himself in spite of all goo& intentions.But that did not matter.The clothes answered very well, and he hurried down to the dining room to find the family all at the table.On seeing him \u2018Lisbeth blushed and Mr.Higgins roared out a great haw-haw of complimens.and fun, and the children and Mrs.Higgine admired and complimented, till Aleo blushed decidedly more than \u2019Lisbeth.He expreseed his thanks as well as he could to Mr.Higgins and \u2019Lisbeth.At 10 o'clock Alec saw the old sexton with his shiny head come across from his house, and, opening the church with a big key, proceed to ring the bell.It was not just the kind of bell ringing Alec was used to in the city, but it was done with a method just the same.The rope hung down into the vestibule of the church, and Alec could see the old MONTREAL DAILY pull, and then seemed nearly earridd off his feet on the return.The sweat poured down his face, and Aleo thought with a laugh that hie collar muss be pretty woll wilted.But on looking again he saw the old sexton\u2019s collar and neok- tie on the floor beside him, a somewhat incongruoua picture for a church door on Sunday morning.Soon the people began to come.First a hulking young man, unoomforsable in his stiff Suaday suit, his white collar rapidly meliing, sloached np apolo- getioally and stood waiting on the cor- Waiting on the corner of the great stone ps.ner of the great stone ateps before the church, full in the broiling sun.He stood there for nearly half an heur, and Alec wondered.Girls in pairs came, rather light and deinty in their muslin frooks, and disappeared into the cool church out of the heat.Perhaps it was their presence within that kept the young man without.Or he may have had an interest in the farmer wagons that drove up, each with a whole family on board.The agile but rather dowdily dressed girl jumped lightly out on one side, while her old father, with a long beard under his chin, alighted on the church steps on the other side, and proceeded first to lift out the little Ones, and then from the back seat his substantial, matronly wife.For a moment the family made a picturesque group on the church steps as they consulted together.Then the man went with the horse and wagon to the sheds im the rear, and the women and children entered the church.Soon the young man on the church stepe had companions, and the first family was followed by a score of others.At last tha Higpinses, ail dressed out spick and span, appeared on the piazza, Papa Joe, as Alec nicknamed him, bringing up the rear, while \u2019Lisbeth hurried zast the others in order to be in her place in the choir in time.Mrs.Higgins gave Alec a formal invitation to à place in their pew, and Alec accepted and followed close behind her, with the children on each side of him, evidently proud of his company.They felt that there was something distinguishing about it, and Alec was pleased.They found a thick crowd in the entry before the inner door, and Alec was obliged to elbow himself in rather roughly, while everybody stared coldly at him.That stony stare made him most uncomfortable, but the Higginses seemed to take it as natural enough, and gave him what relief they could by hurrying to their pew, though most of the audience were still crowded about the door., (To be Continued.)
