CANADIAN EXHIBITS. Manufactured Goods from AH Section! 4auad < ourl ! Wark'larri Mall-Wsut Ike Chirac* ' Inter cmn" fay> er *>air Canada has outdone her mother country in the neat and pretty curtainr she has erected around her space in the Manufac- tures building. The Canadian section i* on the west side of Columbia avenue, with Great Britain on the north, Denmark on south, and Belgium on the east, acrne* the avenue. Every foot of the 16,000 square feet of (pace is crowded with manufactured goods from all part* of Cacada. On the main aiile of the big buil-lm; the Dominion hat put forth an extra effort, and the neat- ly devised curtain which inclose* the spmce i* varied with a citadel-like erection in th* center that rise* some twenty-live feet, and is gayly decorated with Canadian flag* and banting. Within the space is located the exhibit in glass case*, erected on pyramids, all being mounted on platforms. There ia no doubt that the Dominion has many and more varied and probably better lines of manufacture than those which are shown on this busy Columbia avenue of the Manufactures building. There ia much tc criticise in the display which Canada makes, and the manufacturers of the Dummion have done themselves scanty credit by the dis play which they have made at the World's rsir. Deepite this there an a gree>t many line* of manufactured product* in the Can- adian court which will compare favorably with those of th* older, more populous, and more pretentious manufacturing countries. The cotton king ha*) been at work in the Dominion, and in two long, well-finished, native-wood caies are moat tastefully ar- ranged many of the products of the Canadian cotton mill*. FABRICS. Cotton fabric* of all kinds are shown and textile goods occupy a prominent place. Tweed*, meltons, braids, silk threat], and carpet* are .Usoextnsively exhibited Gloves, hosiery, underwear, and ready-made clothing are tastefully arranged in glaia caw* made of Canadian elm, Dirvh, and cherry. Two very pretty cases fairly groan with a burden f lauiee' work of all descriptions from different parts of the Dominion. Some of this work is particularly handaome and artittic and beautifully sxecited. Th is also quite a creditable exhibit of sole and harnea* leather. Scale*, stove* and hollow- ware, water- beautn, honeshoes, stove* pol- ish. screen*, rivet* spade*, thovela, and an immense array of like article* meet the eye m every directon. There it a particu- larly pretty exhibit |of circular and band aw* of almost every pattern which has at- yacted much attention audit U doubtful whether in this department Canada is *nr> pawvi by any exhibit* at The Fair. A creditable display of bootsand shoesoccu- pie* a prominent poeitiun. Paint*, pigment*. bat ha, link traps, and innumerable other article*, go to make up this extended exbibit. A aohd pyramid of the very rinest quality. huge bundles and pile* of cordage and haw- Mr*. pottery nd earthenware, decorated china, *tat inner y, paper, mantel*. eaMla, and all deecripttor. of art supplies are shown. From the different courts in this section are heard continually the sounds of muaical in- struments, piano* exceeding good in finish and tone, organ* and other musical instru- ment* whicb make an attractive show. 'is x U-IIISKKV HALL. Canada's court in Machinery hall isiplen- dully located at the east end of the center fl >or of the building and immediately oppo- site the court of tireat Britain. The court i* artistically arranged and plentifully dec< rated with Canadian and british rta^r ! order to show the good feeling which exitt* between the mother country and her premier colony, the entrance to the Cana- dian court is surmounted by Brituh flag* and emblems, while the entrance to (iret Britain's court is decorated with the Cana- dian beaver and Dominion ensign. While this exhibit ha* many feature* of peculiar interest to visitor*, the display ia ac^rcely even a fair representation of wiiat Canada's machinery manufacturers can produce. Mai.y important line* an absent, and a number of the largest manufacturer* are not represented at all. There is a good display of automatic and traction engine*, compound marine eugines. team injectors ami exhausters, high speed engine*, tire engines, water wheel* and iron working machinery of all inscriptions, in aero** the continent, 3,700 mil**, the *urf- baaten prjvince of Nova Scotia on the Atlanti ocean has produced from her gold deposit* sine* 1 804 over 98,640,000. In the banner province of Ontario, exteoaive de- posits of gold quaru are being worked, largely by American capitalists, and hen the output ia estimated at nearly 9I,OUO,<)00 annually. The sample of coal from British Columbia show the excellent quality in both anthn- cite and bituminous of th* inexhaustible coal field* of thai province. Black diamond* are ,\lao taken out in large quantities m the province of Nova -Scotia, aud the sparsely wooded and illimitable area* of farming land in the great Northwest of the Domin- ion have a plentiful supply of excellent coal from the large deposit* about Banff springs, near the Rocky mountains. The province of Nora Scotia make* a poor showing of coal samples, deepite the fact that he boa iome of the greatest coal area* on the con- tinent. One mine in this province has a shaft running two miles out under the bed of the Atlantic ocean, and the seam of coal is said to be the richest in the world. The showing of nickel and nickel ore from the Sudbury dutrict of the province of Ontario is one which has attracted the nniv iraal attention not only of mining ex- pert; but also of naval officers. The qual- ity cf these ore* can best he indicated by the result of the recent tests made by the naval departments of Great Britain, France, Germany, and the United State*, in which Canadian nickel wa* found to have the greatest power of resistance and wa* by all mean* the most suitable for the purpose of making armour plate* for improved war vessels. Following the result of these teu American capital immediately found it* way into Canada, and even and thousands of tons of Canadian nickle ore are being mined by the Sudbury Nickel company to fill a contract made with the neighboring authori- ties at Washington. This metal will be used for making armour plate* for our pro- poeed new war ship*. The displays of asbestos and mica and phosphates from the extensive mineral areas '.* n * province of (Quebec show the econo- mic valm of the depoeit* there. The scien- tific collection of mineral ore* and fossils made by the geological survey of Canada is one which cannot fail to interest student* of mineralogy. Silver ore,argentUerous galena. copper ore*, iron ore*, marble granite, build- ing stone* of all kinds, graphite, crude and prepared, gypsum, lime and limestone, piL-menU, salt in great prolusion are scat- tered through and tastefully arranged in pyramid* in tbi* fine Canadian collection. Topographical and geographical map,sliow- ing the situation of mineral areas, photo- graphs of mines in operation, section map*, and drawings are also arranged on the walla, so that the visitor at one* get* a good idea of where th economic minerals of the country are situated. The gold from Cana- dian mines ia worth at the mint in Phila- delphia from $19.40 to 990 per ounce. Some of the quaru pecimens taken from Nova Scotia mines assay a* high as $75,000a ton. < tMDIl> EtIIWllv A I snpurUea.

The attendance at the sessions during lost week waa exceptionally Urge, while the various addresses were both able an 1 instructive, Thi* must be especially gratifying to iu promoter), because ever since the inception of the ides, some of the most influential religious journals and cle - gymen of the United States havs violently assailed it as a recognition of false religions sad therefore an insult to Christianity. S bitter, indeed, has been the hostility of the official mouthpieces of the Christian sect* that thos who threw themselves into the movement would have withdrawn had they not been possessed of rare moral courage. But. in spit* of all opposition, th Parlia- ment is a fact which must be reckoned with. Though the churches give it no official countenance, they are unofficially represented by some of their most distin- guished leaders, while the official represen- tatives of the Oriental religion* who are taking port in th* sessions will bring horn* to American Christiana th* fact that there are other faith* which are powerful relig- ious force* in the world. It cannot impair the peculiar claim* of Christianity for its members to gain a truer undereUndiug of that fact. On the contrary, inasmuch as it isa fundamental element in the religious problem that they have set out to solve, it i* essential that they should reali/e it. Nor i* that all. Not only are average Christian* grossly ignorant of the other gre.t world Rates, he says, by reason of have been reduced below a fair paying basis, and the traffic in cocuequence i* car- ried on term* which do not yield the original investor a reasonable profit. Against a situation of this kind it is idle to protest. Circumstanced as the Cana- dian roads ore, they must necessarily be governed in the arrangement of freight charges by the policy of competitors in the United States, and when the latter discard consideration of the proprietary interest by reducing the rates of transport to the bare cost of carriage, our Canadian rail- way* an complle<) to meet them on their own ground. Sir Henry Tyler put* the case thus : " Rates an low. They are fright 'ally low. They are nearly two- third* lower than they are in England. If we had these rate* in England every rail- ay in the country would be in the Bank- rupt court. They ere not paying rate*. They are cut- throat rates. Previous to S'l we got a cent and a half per ton per mile. Now we get 1-6 cent. Think of what that mean*. It msans all the differ- ence between working for a reasonable prof- it and working for no profit at all.'' In referring to this question the Montreal Go/ette says : "The experience of the Grand Trunk is identical with that of its American competitors. The latter enlarge their business from year to year without improving the net profits, upon which the shareholders must depend for a dividend. Ten yean ago, viz., in 1SS-.J. the railways of New York transported to tide water .'{,- 885,000 tons of freight, representing 75 per cent, of the total business, while last the railways carried close upon 6,' tons or about ST per cent, of the business. To cite a single instance of the decline in the cost of railway transportation, to which Sir Henry Tyler refers, it may be stated that the rate on grain from Chicago to Liverpool in ISM) wa* .50 cents per 10U Ibs., and last year only .72 cent*, a decline ir which the ciiarge for all commodities has shored. The remedy for this lamentable state of thing* from the shareholder s standpoint ia very difficult to devise. Legislation certainly will not cure what the proprietors regard as an evil; ami it is really difficult to con- ceive of any more effective method than that heretofore adopted of an agreement be- tween the competing companies for the main- tenance of rates on a baus winch will yield a reasonable return on the capital invested. Comparison is sometimes mads iu tlii* re- spect with Great Britain and Australia; but the circumstance* of traffic in these ccuntnes are so essentially different from those in Canada that no parallel can safely i be drawn between the two. In Australia the railway lines are owned by the Govern- ment No competition on the part of private capital is sneoantcred, and the insu- lar charaotor of the colonies renders absolute contml by the Government easily possible. Ratea can then be fixed according to the rev kst year 1 000,(MJO th* Klssu An advance at New York of about three cents a bushel in the price of wheat last week did not diminish the quantity export- sd.

It u quite probable that the estimate indicat- ed by the report falls considerably below the actual yield.

Bradstreets has repeatedly ex- prss*s:J the opinion that the crop would be nearer 4:).OCO.OOJ than 400,mJ,OUO, and no journal collects crop statistics with greater core. On July 1 the available stock in sight was aSout Tu'.OOO.OOO bushels, an ex- ceptionally large supply, and it wa* be- lieved that the stock in farmars' hands or elsewhere back of the available quantity in sight was in the neighborhood of 30,000.- GOO bushels.

It is an interesting problem, and there will be some changes in the condition of the wheat trade before it is salved. It might here be mentioned that we are maybe asked, is the remedy ? The an- swer i* not easy to supr>'y. Whatever skill- ful mauagement can do toward* conserving the interests of shareholders has certainly been performed in the case of the Grand Trunk, as the president of the company remarks, consistent with the efficient work- ing of the road. Kvery item of expruse has been pruned down to the (fewest notch: and the* the ability of the property t j hold it* own in competition with rival American roads has not been impaired is amply attest- ed with a growing volume of the Grand Trunk traffic. If the capital account* were smaller, th* relation ol the net profits to the total investment would doubtless ap- pear more favorable. But, after all, this is a matter of no great consequence, since it affect* merely a que*tiou of book-keeping. In meeting the competition of the American roads, and in maintaining its full proportion of the through traffic from the interior to the aboard, th* Grand Trunk has pursued a wise policy, out of which alone can come a promise of future dividends. On the basis of this year's or last year'* traffic the prop- arty would yield a very handsome return to the shareholders, if the rate* of ten or fifteen yean ago were still in existence, and it is quite certain that a much higher toll could be collected to-day without mate- rially diminishing the volume of freight passing over the road. In his inspection of the Grand Trunk we are satisfied that the president will find a property thoroughly equipped, in a high condition of excellence, ably managed and capable of easily meet- ing every demand made upon it tor the statistics as to the wheat supply, iu sUti stician being apparently too busy with matters. *uch a* the manul-ctnres of the country, that are of especial political value to itself. story has beeu exploded.
