WHAT THIS IXPTITTTION- 15 DOING TO IMPROVE THE CONDITION ©F THE EAST SIDE POOR. The report of the Friendly Aid for 1300 shows that it had an enrolled weekly attendance at Its settlement house, at Nob. M 6 and 243 East Thirty- fourth-st.. of 1.100. The household numbers twelve, and there are more than sixty volunteer workers. The purpose of. the settlement, according to the report of Mrs. Mary Kiugsbury Slmkovitch. the head worker, is to stimulate the life of the East Side poor, It Is not. «he says, an educational in- stitution, but an associatii% to help the poor to live broader lives. la accordance with (Ida purpose many things, such as cooking, sewing and laundry work, are now taught by the settlement, which will he dropped When the public schools give adequate in- struction In those branches. The real work. Mrs. Slmkovitch believes, li. In the increase of small Chios among the poor, with a greater number of workers to give their time to association with the members of the clubs and teach them by Induction rather than by direct educational methods. Resides the settlement house In East Thlrtv- rourth-st., the Friendly Aid has a country home, called the Spring Turin Fresh Air Home "in Con- necticut Last year, between June 18 and Septem- ber 16. the Friendly Aid was able to give 273 per- sons a chance to see something of the country at the farm. In addition, with the help of other as- sociations, enough more were given outings of a week or ten <l: '- at various places to make up a total of six hundred. The expenses of the Friendly Aid for ISM amounted to 82,736 M. while the receipts were only *'™« The deficiency was bade up by private coniriDut FTRE WALKING IN JAPAN.

Th-se improvement? may do much In the line Indicated, at the sreat drawback to the St. Lawrence route Is the narrow channel, or Strait of Belle Isle, shrouded In fog and dotted with Ice masses almost th whole Fp;\- eon through.

Between the one route and the other '- anada'a maritime trade is being severely in- jured, an.i the American ports are reaping the benefit. This is rot surprising, in view of the fore- going facts, and it is manifest that the Montreal trade must be even more injuriously affected in the future by the Improvement of these ("nlted btates harbors out of all proportion to the more moderate bettering of the Canadian outlet to the ¦em.

V 0 TITLE TO GREATNESB. From The Xew-Orleans Times-Democrat. "•The first newspaper work I ever did." sai.l an old reporter, spinning yarns the other night, "was at the same desk with a man who spent all his ¦P*re time writing dime novels. We were both on the local stall of the paper, and this chap-call him anarrer, which is near enough to the name for the purposes of my story— was retarded as one of the star reporters.' He. was really a very good de- scriptive writer, and naturally I looked up la him with something; like veneration: but I remember I was puzzled at the outset by his seemingly childish curiosity about petty Items of news. He was for- ever asking the reporters questions, and whenever he found anything queer or amusing he would jot it down on his blotting pad. When we got better acquainted he explained himself. 'I have been writing dime novels for the last elsht or nine years.' he said, 'and have worked over my avail- able stock of Incidents and situations until they are worn down to a frazzle. 1 am In constant dread of repeating myself.' he went on. "but I find that I ran k*-ep my style reasonably fresh and convincing by feeding my Imagination with these little happenings from actual life. They are about all sorts of thinss— tights, elopements, lost chil- dren, bunco games, ma I dogs, crank Inventors, fanatics — everything you could think of. I rumi- nate "\-< r them, reflect upon their web of motive and purpose and linallv work them into my novels. The effect is highly realistic.' "After the ice was broken." continued the old reporter, "Shaffer told me a great many Interesting things about his side trade. He sold 'all his manu- scripts to the old firm of E. F. !'.••.. lie * Co., who were the originators of the dime novel we used to read when we were boys, and he got $73 apiece for stories averaging about sixty thousand words He wa=< not a rapid writer and could never manage to Krtnd out more than five or six novels a year, but that forme-l a nice little addition to his income, and he made a point of always having at least two stories 'on the stocks,' as he expressed It. so he could turn from one to the other, as the mood seizrd him. Generally one would be a 'sassiety' romance and the other a blood and thunder, rol- licking tale of adventure In the Wild West. Not very long after I made 8 lifer's acquaintance the half ilimc novel was issued for the first time, and I recall distinctly ila deep disgust at the probable redaction in the rate of pay. He wrote two or three 'half dimes' the following year, and my reco'.- lcctli.n is that h.- received $."/> apiece for them, which was a fair rate, In view of the fact that th»>y contained only thirty thousand words each, hut th* appearance" of the nickel booklet marked the decline of that kind of literature and it was only a few years afterward that the Beadles sus- pended thHr publication* altogether. I met the elder Mi Beadle subsequently at Colorado Springs. where he was sojourning for his health, and sup- posed mv acquaintance with Shaffer would put me on a friendly footing. To my surprise he had dim- culty in recalling the name. 'Our be«t writers used to turn out from twenty-Sve to forty novels a year." he slid, 'and we couldn't be expected to re- rni-mbcr all th.» small fry.

A CORRECTION OF CERTAIN MISSTATE- Mr.NTS CONCERNING THE GOVERN- MENT OF THE ISLAND. San Juan. Porto Rico, April 2S. In a .Ww-York paper recently an article appeared criticising Governor Allen, denouncing the revenue law of Porto Rico and making various complaints iigainst the administration of the government in this Island. It said th.it "the revenue law was rushed through the legislature just before Its ad- .l urnmemt, and was signed by Governor Allen who refused to listen to The protests of the taxpayers." This la a misleading and erroneous statement. The Legislative Assembly met on December 3. On December I! the Revenue bill (Council Bill No. Z) was Introduced In the Council, by the Committee of Finance. On the same day it was read and ordered to be printed, On the 19th it was returned printed, reni a second time and referred to the Committee on Finance; it was then reported back with amendments and considered in committee of the whole, and on January 2 was again reported back with amendments, and passed by the Council by a vote of eight to one. On January S, having been • • grossed, it was sent to the House of Dele- gates, and was consider* '. there for twenty days, passei almost unanimously, and returned to the Council on January 28. with amendments. It then went to a conference committee, which in three days reported an agreement, and it was passed on the last day of the session. Th- Governor had a very short time after its passage to consider the bill or to hear protests, but he had considered it during its pendency in the Assembly, and never refused to hear any one objecting to It. On the contrary, he has always been accessible to all the people of Porto Rico, and every one else, on all occasions. Mr. Magee, the secretary of the Coun- cil, gave a copy of the bill to every one who asked for it until the printed edition of two hundred copies was exhausted. The terms of the bill were well known all over the Island of Porto Rico, and objections from some of the most distant parts were filed and considered by each chamber of the Legislative Assembly. The revenue law was the deliberate legislative act of the people of Porto Rico. RECEIVED MOST CAREFUL CONSIDERATION. The Governor, after sixty days and many niKhts of hard work during the session of the legislative Assembly, did leave the city for a few days' recrea- tion, of which he was in great need. The bill had to be signed within the session of the Legislative Assembly or it would have failed to become a law. There was not a bill passed, out of thirty-six which became laws, that received more careful consideration than this one. a printed protest was prepared by some bankers and merchants against the bill, but it was never presented to the Gov- ernor, owing to delay on the part of those who had the matter In charge; although every man of Intelligence In the Island knew that under the act of Congress the Legislative Assembly would ad- journ on January "i, the protest was dated Feb- ruary 1. It was also stated that there was only J2.000.000 In circulation In this Island. There Ii evidently a great miscalculation in this; for, according to the last returns made, there was on posit In the banks here $2,311,294. Bestdes.'wben the currency was changed. In the month of August. 1000. $3,600.- 000 was left In Porto Rico in exchange for the Spanish silver taken to Washington to be re- colned. So there must bo in this island at least 14,000.000 In circulation, or $4 per capita, for ench man. worn and child enumerated In the census. It is also a great mistake to say that the banks In Porto Rio do not lend money. That Is what they are here fur. But, like the banks in N-w- York. they demand good security. Let the com- plainant offer nny banker in Ban Ji:nn the col- lateral iind be can £•¦• the money. The people of Porto P.leo .?re said to be "land poor." That hi taken to mean that people have unproductive lan.l on which they cannot pay tax.-*. There Is less unproductive lanj In Porto Rico In proportion to Its sire than In any New-England State. Town property In this city Is heM at JI.OOO a front foot, and sugar lands In the Island are valued Bt from 1100 to 1300 an acre. Not an acre of the poorest lan.l on the island can be bought for less than S3. OTHER FALSE STATEMENTS It i*Charged also that the taxpaylng t'.emrnt Is not represented in the Council and that the mem- bers voted themselves a salary of $4,000 a year. Both of these assertions are unfounded in fact. Th" five : stive members of the Executive Council when first appointed by the President were two persons from each of the political parties and one Independent Becoming pique I because they could not carry everything their c wn way. the two Fed- erals in the Council. In obedience to the orders of their political chief, in a fit of childish passion re- Blgned, and after considering the subject for more than two months the President filled their places with two excellent men from H:- Republican party. While only one of the five. Mr. Crosas. the Inde- pendent, is a rich man, nil of them are taxpayers and capable, patriotic Porto Rlcans. The salary of the heads of departments, who are all members of the Council, is Bxed by the act of Congress at $4.<«> per annum, but the salary or the native mem- bers who have no administrative duties to per- form outside of the Council, was left to bi tix^d by the Legislative Assembly. A bill, original 1 In and passed the House of Delegates fixing their salary at $»."'. but it was amended in (he Coun- cil reducing th<> salary to ' •«-• annually, and not one of them voted to pay himself more than that sum. The statement Is also in ide that Governor Allen abolished the high school In Porto Rico and caused the employment of American teachers, who are the cause «,f many troubles. This Is entirely un- true. Governor Allen ha* never abolished a single school of any kind In Porto Rico, and, what la more, the Department of Education, under the civil administration, has never abolished a .single school of any kind, but has opened in Ban Juan a graded high school as good as can be found in any city of equal size In the United State*. And, besides, seven-eighths, of all the teachers of all erodes in Porto Rico are natives educated here. The re- maining one-eighth are American teachers, giving Instruction in the English language, and have never caused any trouble whatever. It i- charged that Governor Allen refused to give statistics of trade at the present time. It must lie borne i: mind that the custom houses In Porto Rico are not under the control of the insular gov- ernment, and thai the Governor docs not always have nt hand the statistics of the export and import trade. However, he has made no such refusal, and through the courtesy of the Collector of Customs a full statement will be given in his forthcoming annual report to the President, and will doubtless be published in d te time. The Imports doubtless do exceed the exports, nd four-fifths of them are from the United States 80, whatever balance of trade la against the Island Is In favor of the Amer- icana, ami not to the credit of the Kngllsh and Spanish, as formerly. At a little Shinto shrine in the heart of Tokio a wonderful rite, looked upon as a miracle by the Phlntolsts. has been performed every spring and fall for many rears. Until recently the occurrence was known only to the Japanese, but in the last year or two it has reached the ears Of an in- creasingly large number of foreigners, who. mostly incredulous, have obtained permission to attend, and at th.> last performance of the rite, on April9, ir«». there were present about fifty of them, who depar:ed mystified. The ceremony is called "Hl-Wattarar'-flre walk- ing—and that Is what actually takes place. For days, perhaps weeks, beforehand the priests con- nected with the temple devote themselves to fast- ing and prayer. The performance la always ap- pointed to take place between 6 and 6 o'clock in the afternoon in the small temple court, but at ! o'clock begins the final outburst of prayer before the unveiled altar in the inner sanctuary of the little matted temple. From 2 tlTl 5 o'clock the prayers continued, led by the chief priest. At 5 o'clock the priests filed from before the altar into Rome Interior apartments* of the temple, where they were to change their beautiful robes for the dre?s worn during the fire walking-. PREPARING the FIRE. In the mean time coolies had been set to work In the courtyard to lprnite the great bed of char- coal v.}.: l-.-id already been laid. The dimensions of this bed were about twelve feet by four, and perhaps a foot deep. On the top was a quantity of straw nml kindling wood, which, wss lightM and soon burst into a roaring blnze. The charcoal became more and more thoroughly ignited. The men not only fanned the flames, but turned the coals over and over by running long poles under- nfath and bringing them to the surface. And now two of the priests came out. said a prayer or two at a tiny shrine in a corner of the inclosure. and turned their attention to the preparation of the fire. Taking long fans and poles from th« cooli-s. they poked and encouraged the blaze till It could plainly be seen that the coal was ignited through- out. The whole bed was a glowing mass, and the heat which aro?e from it was so Intense that it was uncomfortable to ?!t rift*- feet away without holding a fan before one's (ace. TbVn they began to pound it down more solidly along the middle, using the poles Jlke flails. As far as possible in- equalities over the middle were beaten down, and coals which protruded were brushed asi-ie. The other priests who wre to take part ap- peared, after having prayed once more for a s'.iort time within the temple. One of them held a pile of white powder on a small wooden stand. This was said to be salt, but. as far as could be ascer- tained by a superficial examination, it was a mixture of alum and salt. He strod at one end and poised the wooden tray above his i;«=ad. then sprinkled a handful of it on the ground before the bed of coal?. At the same time another priest who Mood by him struck sparks from flint and steel which be held In Mi hands. This same process was repeated by both the priests at the other end, at the two sides and at the corners. PRELIMINARY CEREMONY. Ten minutes, perhaps, wvre meat in various movements and Incantations about the bed of coal?. At the end of that time two small places of wet matting- were brought out and placed at either end, and a quantity of the white mixture was placed upon them. One of th» priests stood upon this wiped hi* feet well in it, and walked over, his bare feet coming In contact with the glowing coals at every step. l! ¦ tlid not hurry, nor tike long steps. He walked around to the other end, and passed over aijain. This time he ran the last two or thrre feet of the way as if the coals hurt him. After passing over he rubbed his feet again in the powder which was at tlie other end. Though this j>ri»-st walked across again and again aft« i that, lie did not again Ehow any sign of undue haste. The leading priest went next. His movements were even slower and, more delicate. He took short steps, his bands were clasped in front, and he r.eemed lost in con- templation, as be might on an ordinary garden valk. During- the numerous tim^s that lie trav- ersed the bed from one cml to the other, htt acted with the -ame deliberation and dignity. The young priest v.-ho followed him had been theatrical from the rim. He swung liis bands back and forth. in one of which he held an open fan, and ho lilted r:ich foot high up at every step i-"or :.'..- or ten minutes the priests passed over th* coals. Th.»<.- who were not so engaged kept up the prayers. In the mean time tickets had been sold to the crowd for throe sen apiece (a cent and a half;, which would permit the bean r to pans over the glowing bed In the same way. The drat to go across was a woman carrying a baby an her back. She afterward crossed a^ain several time.-. After her came some forty or fifty people, men. wom<-n and children, walking fearlessly across, one closely following the other, some, like the mother with her baby, returning to go acr p again, an i appear- ing to enjoy it There were two or three who hur- ried at the end. but this seemed rather because they had stepped upon a sharp coal than bee.-. use they had receive,! h b'irn. While the salt and alum at either end ha.i been renewed from time to time, •^ler^ were many who walked across when it was practically exhausted, and they could have come in contact with very little of It. As each one started on the fiery pilgrimage the priest with the flint and -¦.-.I struck sparks about the person's head, while the other priests did not cease from their prayers, the waving of the fans and the "gohel." As dusk began tO fall, the scene became more and more impressive. The coals glowed out by contrast, and the white robed priests, with their weird incantations, made a fitting element, while two priests at one ride beat .i drum ;md played on a reed ptj>e, the strains being In perfect keeiing with the rest of the performance. One man. a coolie, ran off at one aide when he was half over', and the crowd hooted. But nearly all of the many people who passed over—and their number was large and difficult to estimate— seemed abso- lutely uninjured, and apparently derived no dis- comfort from the operation. There was iio doubt in the minds of any of the foreign spectators and there were many skeptics amnni: the number— that the fit was not only ger.uine. but Intensely hot, and no satisfactory ex- planation could be advanced by even the most learned The use of the salt and alum on the damp mats was the weakest point of all. but even that could have been but a very slight and tem- porary protection.

There was a report current yesterday that eight private dwelling houses in Fifty-sixth-st., between Park and Lexington ayes., had been recently sold to various persons. This report could not be verified. The Cumberland Realty Company yesterday took title to the north end of the triangular plot bounded by Fifth-aye.. Broadway and Tvrenty-third-st. from Samuel Newhouse for a consideration of $130,000 over a mortgage for $550,000, making the amount Involved in the transaction ?700.000.

B. Osßood Pell & Co. have sold No. 17 East Forty- seventh-st.. a four story private dwelling house, for Mrs. C. Vanderbllt De Forest to a client. BOW nt: got the quarter. From The Philadelphia Record. This happened yesterday morning while the pres- ident and directors of a Chestnut-st bank were discussing momentous affairs in the board room. The door suddenly opened, and a husky voice ex- clilmed: "William, I want a quarter, and I want it nulek!" Every one looked up. The president rec- o-n!z«?d the intruder as a man who had been a playmate years ago, wh»n they were both boys. hw T wanderings had taken the form of a circuit, ap- parently, snd this was his -.-mi-annual visit. "Will- iam 1 want a quarter— to set a co.iple "' drinks" explained he of the husky voice. "Yon oucnt to be ashamed of vo«rself," obs?rved the president, em- barrassed ar.d Irritate.!. "Ashamed of myself • sal.l the hum. "Why? Because I told you the truth? William. if I'd come here with a lie on my lias voud give me your last winter s overshoes, an aid overcoat and 15." The president gave a start. That was exactly what he had done to a r.e«-<lv looking fellow who had slipped past the guard a couple of weeks before. '•Tea, William, that's Just what you'd do if I told you 1 wanted to bury my dead wife and buy food for six starving children. I know It, because I helped the widower drown his eorro*-. When the rive-spot was gotM we hocked the coat— the over*hoes weren't worth a cent. Oh. I «r!sh I was a good, conscientious liar, like Jim. • The directors said the drinks were on the president, and, as subsequent events proved, they were. HOW THE HOA IS caught. From The New-Orleans Times-Democrat. '•The boa constrictor ¦:« fairly common In the for- ests of Western Nicaragua and Coata Rica," said one of the canal engineers who was In the i! v recently, "and there are natives In that section who hunt them exclusively fora livelihood. While we were engaged in the survey work we heard v good deal of these big snakes, an.i all the white men In the party sto»»l in the greatest iirt-.ul of them, although they are not half so dangerous as the small, poisonous variety. During two and a half years sp-nt In the country 1 saw only one live boa, but the experience Is pretty firmly stamped on my memory and 1 have no yearning for an- other. 1 ha<J gone out. with a couple of native as- sistants, from a town culled Zapan. on the south side of the lower lake, to shoot some plum birds, anil while we were crossing a rather open piece of forest 1 noticed what 1 supposed to be a peculiarly malformed limb on a large spicewood tree. It sagged down from the trunk of the tree and seemed to be attached to another growth nearer th« ground. 1 started toward it to Investi- gate, and when only a f»-w yards away the thing I had taken to be a limb suddenly raiseil itself In the air. and 1 saw that It was a gigantic snake, hang- ing head down from an upper bough. I had often heard the expression, 'paralyzed by fear,' but I never knew What it meant until then. i Was so badly scared that 1 couldn"' have moved if the fate of the universe had depended upon it. and 1 sim- ply stood there, stock still an.l staring, while the boa swayed back and forth a few times an.l anally glided into the upper foliage. It seemed fifty feet long ami as big around as a barrel. I think it was really about twelve. At that juncture my natives came up, and when they heard what had happened they at once insisted upon catching the monster. They made a noose, which they attached to a pole, ami. while I retire.! to a safe distance, one of them climbed the tree and seized the snake by the tall, while the other tried to slip the loop over Its neck as it lowered Its heal. If was too a^lle for them, however, an. escaped Into another tree, where it went too high for pursuit. "The Central American boas are brownish red In color, with black splotches on the Fides and back, and the native hunters tan the skin by stretching it over a log. A good skin with no bullet marks and Including the bead sells for $10 Mexican down there, and. to avoid holes and mutilation the hunters always catch the snakes in a noose and kill them by a stab under the Jaw. They make all kin. is of leather articles out of the hide — belts, pouches, leggings, slippers, and even neckties. I made many inquiries during our stay, but I could never hear of a case in which a boa had attacked a human being. The snake I saw was undoubtedly lying in wait for some small animal, and if one had passed under the tree It would have dropped on its back. The Indians of the region call the boa ¦chula.' which is the same word they use for cow- ard: so. you see, they have no great opinion of its fighting qualities." THE DIVEIISIOX OF COMMERCE TO j AMEDICAN POUTS DQi TO ITS DANGERS. gt. John's. X. F.. **•'• 5 (Sp*»e!al).— Canada Is ex- cee^inr-y disturbed ovc-r the prowing unpopularity c fthe St. Lawrence route and the withdrawal there- from of some of thp leading o«-an shipping lines »hich ka<l hithfrt<> made Montreal th«=-lr Western tfr.nlr.ui". Th<» competition of thf Arr.erican ports is provias dotmctlve^ and -he Canadian Parlin- iixt.t i* clamorous for prompt action by ike Fed- eral Gflverntnent to improve the approaches to the g\i\' and the riv^r. Th^ Dcminiou lino has gonp to Portlaad, the Johnson I^ine to Boston, the HatT.burg-Arr"'rifan to New-York, and even the jjeyland Uoe refuses to go up the river beyond Quebec. Montreal's trade is dropping, and in the ?a<*<' of the appalling record of disaster which the ir.?rin«- insurance underwriters present as the Out- come of their St. L-awrence business in The last ten yean Jt is difficult to see how anything *-lse ran be expected. The St. Lavreaec route has lor.g had a most ur- •nvlable ropt'-te for shipwrecks. Two years asjo t^loyds' rates were increased considerably above those ruling for American ports Th» Canadians cried oot aeair.st this, as an unjust discrimination e^air.Ft them and an attempt to discredit their rational waterway. This year they have pought incorporation for a Canadian Lloyds, and a bill for the purpose Is now before the Ottawa House. The marine insurers against whom this is aimed have met it with a statement phowins the amazing- ex- tert cf the Josses on that route and the worth- ies* characte- of the lighthouses, signal sta- tiors r.nd other aids to navigation which line the gulf pea board from Belle Isle to the head of tide- water. This statement is an almost destructive Mow to the pretence that Canada has In the St, Lawrenc* a «afe and advantageous shipping lan«. In brief, the document, which rovers the years ISS9 to !*>S. inclusive, shows that during that period twenty-eight ocean steamers were totally lost on that route, and that elehty-four etrandingrs oc- curred, fifty cf them in the channel between Mon- treal and Quebec. At least 75 per cent of the losses lifiQ been In the, St. Lawrence River and Gulf, and goire if the disasters were to the finest steamers on the route, and were attended by loss of life. The financlsl aspects were equally discouraging. Th» Insurance companies during the decade paid losses on outgoing hulls of 53, 463/00 and on cargoes P.055.0M. on Incoming hull* t2.560.000. and cargoes J1.E26.m00. Over and above the premiums actually received the companies lost BjMMs* a year on chips and hulls, and there seems little or no pros- pect cf Improvement or any warrant for reducing the premiums again. DANGERS AI-ON'G THE ROUTE. This hopeless showing Is confirmed by the report m the condition of the waterway from Montreal to the Newfoundland banks, which is a section of the St. Lawrence route nearly eight hundred miles long and bristling with danger from fog. Ice. cur- rents and defective charts and signals the whole way. A--, inquiry was set on foot by the pilots and shipmasters frequenting the route as to the conditions of navigation prevailing and the im- ! provements which could be effected. The master mariners. thirty-tm~>e in all. whose evidence was , obtained united in the conclusion that the existing beacons were obsolete, and that not only should they I*3 ffremly modernized, but a number of mi ones ought to be eet up. They condemned The lights en weak, the fog signals as lacking in power, the fcuoys as being unreliable, the signal stations as wrongly placed and the coast as badly charted. Bad as These conditions were In the outer waters of The gulf, where no soundings could M got and the ships had ?ea room, they were worse in the river, where the channel was narrow and shoal, being less than M» feet wide ana 2S feet deen. Every facility existing along the route was of a far lower standard than the eteamer captains considered -war}', and the Imperfections were so many ard so glaring as to be altogether Inconsistent with the greatest security to life end property and the ad- vantage rot only of the large Atlantic liners, but also of all classes of shlpplUsT interested In the coasting or ocean trad*. Wit* sneh conditions existing, it Is not surprising that marine risks should be so high and the St. Lawrence route ehunned by most of the large shipowners. Even tramp steamer* avoided It. be- .cause the burden »'a« so excessive. Insurance rates tbere have been so arranged cf late that a chin paying 44 X* per cent to Baltimore would pay i 10 or even 11 per cent to Montreal. This would ¦jean an extra charge of £25.000 on a boat worth haif a million making five round trips there during the season of or-en navigation, which is about seven months— from ate] to November, incluelve." These charges frighten shipowners off, and they seek charters at the American ports, without much diffl- cu!:y in obtaining ih»-m, the result being that freights are diverted from Montreal to the com- peting ports, crippling Canada's great emporium more and more every year. COMPARISON OF EXPORTS. How great this injury is can be realized by the fart that the United States exports annually 200,- 000.000 bushels of wheat and flour. 200.C00.000 bushels of com and an equal dead weight of oats, barley, bacon, pork and kindred commodities. Canada's largest exportation at grain in one year was but 44,000.000, and much of this came from the American West; because until the last two or tnree years a poodly stream of United States products flowed out through the St. Lawrence, it IOC the shortest ar.d most .lirect route to Europe. But the Irequert .... the Increasing insurance and the general dissatisfaction compelled them to turn to the <hea;*r and saler, if longer, route by the Arr.erican ports. The oth<r side of the matter is now seen in the fact that the Canadian province cf Manitoba last year exported sC.Ojij.wX) bushels of .grain to Great Britain, and out of that quantity le?s than 14 ;.er cent went by way of Canada. th«: other W, per cent poiug out through American '-han- r.fls. Montreal last eeanon did a much «ma!Ur rrain export trade than for some years previously, ar.d with the withdrawal of the steamer lines now announced it Is certain to be less than ever this year. ESTIMATED COST OF IMPROVEMENTS. tTo improve the St. I^awrenee route to an extent whi'-h would enable it to compete with Portland. Boston or New-York will involve an expenditure cf J5.0C0.900, and cuch an outlay the Canadian Oov- err.aier.t ia not disposed to undertake until It is satisfied that Montreal can continue to be the preat nation.il port of the Dominion. The danger <f this lies in the fact that Quebec is really the natural harbor, whereas to reach Montreal involves di-edg- Isg the river up to that point, a distance of ls>3 miles. The present depth of water is about twenty-fight iett. and the present demand Is for a depth of »fciny feet. But New-York Is now planning '¦' r a forty loot channel and the question 1- iisked • whether Montreal can hope to equal this, or Whether, even Ifit can, It is wise to attempt it with Quebec available at such a short distance away. Ja olden times of railway running the transfer (l JKraJn or other products over a distance of I~' miles ?¦ss a serious matter, but nowadays, with the -Towih of railway plants and the economies In operation, this problem loses much of its wrioiis- neat Consequently, Canada's wUest men are halt- ing To consider whether the centre of commercial «rax:' should not ».«• shifted to yuobec. esperiully •* such huge ships are now being built every year, demanding much in the way of sea room.

WHAT THIS IXPTITTTION- 15 DOING TO IMPROVE

THE CONDITION ©F THE EAST SIDE POOR.

The report of the Friendly Aid for 1300 showsthat it had an enrolled weekly attendance at Itssettlement house, at Nob. M6and 243 East Thirty-fourth-st.. of 1.100. The household numbers twelve,and there are more than sixty volunteer workers.The purpose of. the settlement, according to thereport of Mrs. Mary Kiugsbury Slmkovitch. thehead worker, is to stimulate the life of the EastSide poor, It Is not. «he says, an educational in-stitution, but an associatii% to help the poor to livebroader lives.la accordance with (Ida purpose many things,

such as cooking, sewing and laundry work, arenow taught by the settlement, which will hedropped When the public schools give adequate in-struction In those branches. The real work. Mrs.Slmkovitch believes, li. In the increase of smallChios among the poor, with a greater number ofworkers to give their time to association with themembers of the clubs and teach them by Inductionrather than by direct educational methods.

Resides the settlement house In East Thlrtv-rourth-st., the Friendly Aid has a country home,called the Spring Turin Fresh Air Home "in Con-necticut Last year, between June 18 and Septem-ber 16. the Friendly Aid was able to give 273 per-sons a chance to see something of the country atthe farm. In addition, with the help of other as-sociations, enough more were given outings of aweek or ten <l:'- at various places to make up atotal of six hundred.

The expenses of the Friendly Aid for ISMamounted to 82,736 M. while the receipts were only*'™« The deficiency was bade up by privateconiriDut

A CHOICE OF TWO ROUTES.ItIs this defect which will operate so detrimental-ly to Canada's water»x>me commerce In the future.

Her advocate* say; "Improve the gulf beacons andi:&hts; provide for a proper vy,!ropr.!:,hi •¦• survey oftbe river at a cost of ro.«00; dredpe the river andwiden the channel; abolish the port duties nowchcrped at Montreal, and make it a free port, Ilk.-some cf the American harbors; aboll«h the ratesnow charged bj the canals, whi^h would coetJ2*).fiO.'). but would probably divert a large volumeof grain traffic to them, and erect some Inrge ele-vators at Montreal, which would contain an Im-mense stock of wheat, and admit of Its expeditiousand *"vjnom!c shipment." Th-se improvement?may do much In the line Indicated, at the sreatdrawback to the St. Lawrence route Is the narrowchannel, or Strait of Belle Isle, shrouded In fogand dotted with Ice masses almost th whole Fp;\-eon through.

Butthat involves a day's delay, and phlpowners willlane tlie risk of the former rather than keep theirvessels out iday. Between the one route and theother '-anada'a maritime trade is being severely in-jured, an.i the American ports are reaping thebenefit. This is rot surprising, in view of the fore-going facts, and it is manifest that the Montrealtrade must be even more injuriously affected inthe future by the Improvement of these ("nltedbtates harbors out of all proportion to the moremoderate bettering of the Canadian outlet to the¦em.

V 0TITLE TO GREATNESB.From The Xew-Orleans Times-Democrat.

"•The first newspaper work Iever did." sai.l anold reporter, spinning yarns the other night, "wasat the same desk with a man who spent all his¦P*re time writingdime novels. We were both onthe local stall of the paper, and this chap-call himanarrer, which is near enough to the name for thepurposes of my story— was retarded as one of thestar reporters.' He. was really a very good de-scriptive writer, and naturally Ilooked up la himwith something; like veneration: but Iremember Iwas puzzled at the outset by his seemingly childishcuriosity about petty Items of news. He was for-ever asking the reporters questions, and wheneverhe found anything queer or amusing he would jotit down on his blotting pad. When we got betteracquainted he explained himself. 'I have beenwriting dime novels for the last elsht or nineyears.' he said, 'and have worked over my avail-able stock of Incidents and situations until theyare worn down to a frazzle. 1 am In constantdread of repeating myself.' he went on. "but Ifindthat Iran k*-ep my style reasonably fresh andconvincing by feeding my Imagination with theselittle happenings from actual life. They are aboutall sorts of thinss— tights, elopements, lost chil-dren, bunco games, ma I dogs, crank Inventors,fanatics

—everything you could think of. Irumi-

nate "\-<r them, reflect upon their web of motiveand purpose and linallv work them into my novels.The effect is highly realistic.'

"After the ice was broken." continued the oldreporter, "Shaffer told me a great many Interestingthings about his side trade. He sold 'all his manu-scripts to the old firm of E. F. !'.••.. lie * Co., whowere the originators of the dime novel we used toread when we were boys, and he got $73 apiece forstories averaging about sixty thousand words Hewa=< not a rapid writer and could never manage toKrtnd out more than five or six novels a year, butthat forme-l a nice little addition to his income,and he made a point of always having at least twostories 'on the stocks,' as he expressed It. so hecould turn from one to the other, as the moodseizrd him. Generally one would be a 'sassiety'romance and the other a blood and thunder, rol-licking tale of adventure In the Wild West. Notvery long after Imade 8 lifer's acquaintance thehalf ilimc novel was issued for the first time, and Irecall distinctly ila deep disgust at the probableredaction in the rate of pay. He wrote two orthree 'half dimes' the following year, and my reco'.-lcctli.n is that h.- received $."/> apiece for them,which was a fair rate, In view of the fact thatth»>y contained only thirty thousand words each,hut th* appearance" of the nickel booklet markedthe decline of that kind of literature and it wasonly a few years afterward that the Beadles sus-pended thHr publication* altogether. I met theelder Mi Beadle subsequently at Colorado Springs.where he was sojourning for his health, and sup-posed mv acquaintance with Shaffer would put meon a friendly footing. To my surprise he had dim-culty in recalling the name. 'Our be«t writersused to turn out from twenty-Sve to forty novels ayear." he slid, 'and we couldn't be expected to re-rni-mbcr all th.» small fry. Chap* who wrote five orFix a year w-re as common as blackberries.'

A CORRECTION OF CERTAIN MISSTATE-Mr.NTS CONCERNING THE GOVERN-

MENT OF THE ISLAND.

San Juan. Porto Rico, April2S.In a .Ww-York paper recently an article appeared

criticising Governor Allen, denouncing the revenuelaw of Porto Rico and making various complaintsiigainst the administration of the government in

this Island. It said th.it "the revenue law wasrushed through the legislature just before Its ad-.l urnmemt, and was signed by Governor Allen whorefused to listen to The protests of the taxpayers."This la a misleading and erroneous statement.

The Legislative Assembly met on December 3.On December I!the Revenue bill (Council Bill No.Z) was Introduced In the Council, by the Committeeof Finance. On the same day it was read andordered to be printed, On the 19th it was returnedprinted, reni a second time and referred to theCommittee on Finance; it was then reported back

with amendments and considered in committee ofthe whole, and on January 2 was again reportedback with amendments, and passed by the Councilby a vote of eight to one. On January S, having

been • • grossed, it was sent to the House of Dele-gates, and was consider* '. there for twenty days,

passei almost unanimously, and returned to the

Council on January 28. with amendments. It thenwent to a conference committee, which in threedays reported an agreement, and it was passed onthe last day of the session. Th- Governor had avery short time after its passage to consider thebill or to hear protests, but he had considered itduring its pendency in the Assembly, and neverrefused to hear any one objecting to It. On thecontrary, he has always been accessible to all thepeople of Porto Rico, and every one else, on alloccasions. Mr.Magee, the secretary of the Coun-cil, gave a copy of the bill to every one who askedfor it until the printed edition of two hundredcopies was exhausted. The terms of the bill werewell known all over the Island of Porto Rico, andobjections from some of the most distant partswere filed and considered by each chamber of theLegislative Assembly. The revenue law was thedeliberate legislative act of the people of PortoRico.RECEIVED MOST CAREFUL CONSIDERATION.

The Governor, after sixty days and many niKhtsof hard work during the session of the legislativeAssembly, did leave the city for a few days' recrea-tion, of which he was in great need. The bill had

to be signed within the session of the LegislativeAssembly or it would have failed to become a law.There was not a bill passed, out of thirty-six

which became laws, that received more carefulconsideration than this one. a printed protest wasprepared by some bankers and merchants against

the bill, but it was never presented to the Gov-ernor, owing to delay on the part of those whohad the matter In charge; although every man ofIntelligence In the Island knew that under the act

of Congress the Legislative Assembly would ad-journ on January "i, the protest was dated Feb-ruary 1.It was also stated that there was only J2.000.000

In circulation In this Island. There Iievidently agreat miscalculation in this; for, according to thelast returns made, there was on posit In the

banks here $2,311,294. Bestdes.'wben the currency

was changed. In the month of August. 1000. $3,600.-

000 was left In Porto Rico in exchange for theSpanish silver taken to Washington to be re-colned. So there must bo in this island at least14,000.000 In circulation, or $4 per capita, for ench

man. worn and child enumerated In the census.It is also a great mistake to say that the banks

In Porto Rio do not lend money. That Is whatthey are here fur. But, like the banks in N-w-

York. they demand good security. Let the com-plainant offer nny banker in Ban Ji:nn the col-lateral iind be can £•¦• the money.

The people of Porto P.leo .?re said to be "land

poor." That hi taken to mean that people haveunproductive lan.l on which they cannot pay tax.-*.

There Is less unproductive lanj In Porto Rico Inproportion to Its sire than In any New-England

State. Town property In this city Is heM at JI.OOOa front foot, and sugar lands In the Island arevalued Bt from 1100 to 1300 an acre. Not an acre ofthe poorest lan.l on the island can be bought for

less than S3.

OTHER FALSE STATEMENTSIt i*Charged also that the taxpaylng t'.emrnt Is

not represented in the Council and that the mem-bers voted themselves a salary of $4,000 a year.

Both of these assertions are unfounded in fact.

Th" five : stive members of the Executive Council

when first appointed by the President were two

persons from each of the political parties and oneIndependent Becoming piqueIbecause they could

not carry everything their c wn way. the two Fed-

erals in the Council. In obedience to the orders of

their political chief, in a fit of childish passion re-Blgned, and after considering the subject for morethan two months the President filled their places

with two excellent men from H:- Republican party.While only one of the five. Mr. Crosas. the Inde-pendent, is a rich man, nil of them are taxpayers

and capable, patriotic Porto Rlcans. The salary ofthe heads of departments, who are all membersof the Council, is Bxed by the act of Congress at$4.<«> per annum, but the salary or the native mem-bers who have no administrative duties to per-form outside of the Council, was left to bi tix^dby the Legislative Assembly. A bill, original 1 In

and passed the House of Delegates fixing theirsalary at $»."'. but it was amended in (he Coun-

cil reducing th<> salary to'

•«-• annually, and notone of them voted to pay himself more than thatsum.

The statement Is also in ide that Governor Allenabolished the high school In Porto Rico and causedthe employment of American teachers, who arethe cause «,f many troubles. This Is entirely un-true. Governor Allen ha* never abolished a singleschool of any kind In Porto Rico, and, what lamore, the Department of Education, under the civiladministration, has never abolished a .single schoolof any kind, but has opened in Ban Juan a gradedhigh school as good as can be found in any cityof equal size In the United State*. And, besides,seven-eighths, of all the teachers of all erodesin Porto Rico are natives educated here. The re-maining one-eighth are American teachers, givingInstruction in the English language, and havenever caused any trouble whatever.

It i- charged that Governor Allen refused togive statistics of trade at the present time. Itmustlie borne i: mind that the custom houses In PortoRico are not under the control of the insular gov-ernment, and thai the Governor docs not alwayshave nt hand the statistics of the export and importtrade. However, he has made no such refusal, andthrough the courtesy of the Collector of Customsa full statement will be given in his forthcomingannual report to the President, and will doubtlessbe published in d te time. The Imports doubtless doexceed the exports, nd four-fifths of them arefrom the United States 80, whatever balance oftrade la against the Island Is In favor of the Amer-icana, ami not to the credit of the Kngllsh andSpanish, as formerly.

At a little Shinto shrine in the heart of Tokio awonderful rite, looked upon as a miracle by thePhlntolsts. has been performed every spring andfall for many rears. Until recently the occurrencewas known only to the Japanese, but in the lastyear or two it has reached the ears Of an in-creasingly large number of foreigners, who. mostlyincredulous, have obtained permission to attend,and at th.> last performance of the rite, on April9,ir«». there were present about fifty of them, whodepar:ed mystified.

The ceremony is called "Hl-Wattarar'-flre walk-ing—and that Is what actually takes place. Fordays, perhaps weeks, beforehand the priests con-nected with the temple devote themselves to fast-ing and prayer. The performance la always ap-pointed to take place between 6 and 6 o'clock inthe afternoon in the small temple court, but at !o'clock begins the final outburst of prayer beforethe unveiled altar in the inner sanctuary of thelittle matted temple. From 2 tlTl 5 o'clock theprayers continued, led by the chief priest. At 5o'clock the priests filed from before the altar intoRome Interior apartments* of the temple, wherethey were to change their beautiful robes for thedre?s worn during the fire walking-.

PREPARING the FIRE.In the mean time coolies had been set to work

In the courtyard to lprnite the great bed of char-coal v.}.: l-.-id already been laid. The dimensionsof this bed were about twelve feet by four, andperhaps a foot deep. On the top was a quantityof straw nml kindling wood, which, wss lightMand soon burst into a roaring blnze. The charcoalbecame more and more thoroughly ignited. Themen not only fanned the flames, but turned thecoals over and over by running long poles under-nfath and bringing them to the surface. And nowtwo of the priests came out. said a prayer or twoat a tiny shrine in a corner of the inclosure. andturned their attention to the preparation of thefire. Taking long fans and poles from th« cooli-s.they poked and encouraged the blaze till It couldplainly be seen that the coal was ignited through-out. The whole bed was a glowing mass, and theheat which aro?e from it was so Intense that itwas uncomfortable to ?!t rift*- feet away withoutholding a fan before one's (ace. TbVn they beganto pound it down more solidly along the middle,using the poles Jlke flails. As far as possible in-equalities over the middle were beaten down, andcoals which protruded were brushed asi-ie.

The other priests who wre to take part ap-peared, after having prayed once more for a s'.iorttime within the temple. One of them held a pileof white powder on a small wooden stand. Thiswas said to be salt, but. as far as could be ascer-tained by a superficial examination, it was amixture of alum and salt. He strod at one endand poised the wooden tray above his i;«=ad. thensprinkled a handful of it on the ground beforethe bed of coal?. At the same time another priestwho Mood by him struck sparks from flint andsteel which be held In Mi hands. This sameprocess was repeated by both the priests at theother end, at the two sides and at the corners.

PRELIMINARY CEREMONY.Ten minutes, perhaps, wvre meat in various

movements and Incantations about the bed of coal?.At the end of that time two small places of wetmatting- were brought out and placed at either end,and a quantity of the white mixture was placedupon them. One of th» priests stood upon this wipedhi* feet well in it, and walked over, his bare feetcoming In contact with the glowing coals at everystep. l!¦ tlid not hurry, nor tike long steps. Hewalked around to the other end, and passed overaijain. This time he ran the last two or thrre feetof the way as if the coals hurt him. After passingover he rubbed his feet again in the powder whichwas at tlie other end. Though this j>ri»-st walkedacross again and again aft« i that, lie did not againEhow any sign of undue haste. The leading priestwent next. His movements were even slower and,more delicate. He took short steps, his bandswere clasped in front, and he r.eemed lost in con-templation, as be might on an ordinary gardenvalk. During- the numerous tim^s that lie trav-ersed the bed from one cml to the other, htt actedwith the -ame deliberation and dignity. Theyoung priest v.-ho followed him had been theatricalfrom the rim. He swung liis bands back andforth. in one of which he held an open fan, and holilted r:ich foot high up at every step

i-"or :.'..- or ten minutes the priests passed overth* coals. Th.»<.- who were not so engaged keptup the prayers. In the mean time tickets had beensold to the crowd for throe sen apiece (a cent anda half;, which would permit the bean r to pans overthe glowing bed In the same way. The drat to goacross was a woman carrying a baby an her back.She afterward crossed a^ain several time.-. Afterher came some forty or fifty people, men. wom<-nand children, walking fearlessly across, one closelyfollowing the other, some, like the mother withher baby, returning to go acr p again, an i appear-ing to enjoy it There were two or three who hur-ried at the end. but this seemed rather because theyhad stepped upon a sharp coal than bee.-. use theyhad receive,! h b'irn. While the salt and alum ateither end ha.i been renewed from time to time,•^ler^ were many who walked across when it waspractically exhausted, and they could have come incontact with very little of It. As each one startedon the fiery pilgrimage the priest with theflint and -¦.-.I struck sparks about the person'shead, while the other priests did not cease fromtheir prayers, the waving of the fans and the"gohel." As dusk began tO fall, the scene becamemore and more impressive. The coals glowed outby contrast, and the white robed priests, withtheir weird incantations, made a fitting element,while two priests at one ride beat .i drum ;md

played on a reed ptj>e, the strains being In perfectkeeiing with the rest of the performance. Oneman. a coolie, ran off at one aide when he was halfover', and the crowd hooted. But nearly all of themany people who passed over—and their number

was large and difficult to estimate— seemed abso-lutely uninjured, and apparently derived no dis-comfort from the operation.

There was iio doubt in the minds of any of theforeign spectators and there were many skepticsamnni: the number— that the fit was not onlyger.uine. but Intensely hot, and no satisfactory ex-planation could be advanced by even the most

learned The use of the salt and alum on thedamp mats was the weakest point of all. but eventhat could have been but a very slight and tem-porary protection.

BOW nt: got the quarter.

From The Philadelphia Record.This happened yesterday morning while the pres-

ident and directors of a Chestnut-st bank werediscussing momentous affairs in the board room.The door suddenly opened, and a husky voice ex-clilmed: "William,Iwant a quarter, and Iwant

it nulek!" Every one looked up. The president rec-o-n!z«?d the intruder as a man who had been aplaymate years ago, wh»n they were both boys.hwT wanderings had taken the form of a circuit, ap-

parently, snd this was his -.-mi-annual visit. "Will-iam 1 want a quarter— to set a co.iple

"'drinks"

explained he of the husky voice. "Yon oucnt to beashamed of vo«rself," obs?rved the president, em-barrassed ar.d Irritate.!. "Ashamed of myself

•

sal.l the hum. "Why? Because Itold you thetruth? William. if I'd come here with a lie on mylias voud give me your last winter s overshoes,an aid overcoat and 15." The president gave astart. That was exactly what he had done to a

r.e«-<lv looking fellow who had slipped past theguard a couple of weeks before. '•Tea, William,

that's Just what you'd do ifItold you 1 wanted tobury my dead wife and buy food for six starvingchildren. Iknow It, because Ihelped the widowerdrown his eorro*-. When the rive-spot was gotM

we hocked the coat— the over*hoes weren't worth acent. Oh. I«r!sh Iwas a good, conscientious liar,like Jim.

•The directors said the drinks were on

the president, and, as subsequent events proved,they were.

HOW THE HOA IS caught.

From The New-Orleans Times-Democrat.'•The boa constrictor ¦:« fairly common In the for-

ests of Western Nicaragua and Coata Rica," saidone of the canal engineers who was In the i! v

recently, "and there are natives In that sectionwho hunt them exclusively fora livelihood. Whilewe were engaged in the survey work we heard vgood deal of these big snakes, an.i all the whitemen In the party sto»»l in the greatest iirt-.ul ofthem, although they are not half so dangerous asthe small, poisonous variety. During two and ahalf years sp-nt In the country 1 saw only one liveboa, but the experience Is pretty firmly stampedon my memory and 1 have no yearning for an-other. 1 ha<J gone out. with a couple of native as-sistants, from a town culled Zapan. on the southside of the lower lake, to shoot some plumbirds, anil while we were crossing a rather openpiece of forest 1 noticed what 1 supposed to be apeculiarly malformed limb on a large spicewoodtree. It sagged down from the trunk of the treeand seemed to be attached to another growthnearer th« ground. 1 started toward it to Investi-gate, and when only a f»-w yards away the thing Ihad taken to be a limb suddenly raiseil itself In theair. and 1 saw that It was a gigantic snake, hang-ing head down from an upper bough. Ihad oftenheard the expression, 'paralyzed by fear,' but Inever knew What it meant until then. iWas sobadly scared that 1 couldn"' have moved ifthe fateof the universe had depended upon it. and 1 sim-ply stood there, stock still an.l staring, while theboa swayed back and forth a few times an.l anallyglided into the upper foliage. It seemed fifty feetlong ami as big around as a barrel. Ithink it wasreally about twelve. At that juncture my nativescame up, and when they heard what had happenedthey at once insisted upon catching the monster.They made a noose, which they attached to a pole,ami. while Iretire.! to a safe distance, one of themclimbed the tree and seized the snake by the tall,while the other tried to slip the loop over Its neckas it lowered Its heal. If was too a^lle for them,however, an. escaped Into another tree, where itwent too high for pursuit.

"The Central American boas are brownish red Incolor, with black splotches on the Fides and back,and the native hunters tan the skin by stretchingit over a log. A good skin with no bullet marksand Including the bead sells for $10 Mexican downthere, and. to avoid holes and mutilation thehunters always catch the snakes in a noose andkill them by a stab under the Jaw. They makeall kin.is of leather articles out of the hide

—belts,

pouches, leggings, slippers, and even neckties. Imade many inquiries during our stay, but Icouldnever hear of a case in which a boa had attackeda human being. The snake Isaw was undoubtedlylying in wait for some small animal, and if onehad passed under the tree It would have dropped onits back. The Indians of the region call the boa¦chula.' which is the same word they use for cow-ard: so. you see, they have no great opinion of itsfighting qualities."

THE DIVEIISIOX OF COMMERCE TO jAMEDICAN POUTS DQi TO

ITS DANGERS.gt. John's. X. F.. **•'• 5 (Sp*»e!al).—Canada Is ex-

cee^inr-y disturbed ovc-r the prowing unpopularitycfthe St. Lawrence route and the withdrawal there-from of some of thp leading o«-an shipping lines»hich ka<lhithfrt<> made Montreal th«=-lr Westerntfr.nlr.ui". Th<» competition of thf Arr.erican ports

is provias dotmctlve^ and -he Canadian Parlin-iixt.t i* clamorous for prompt action by ike Fed-eral Gflverntnent to improve the approaches to theg\i\' and the riv^r. Th^ Dcminiou lino has gonpto Portlaad, the Johnson I^ine to Boston, theHatT.burg-Arr"'rifan to New-York, and even thejjeyland Uoe refuses to go up the river beyondQuebec. Montreal's trade is dropping, and in the?a<*<' of the appalling record of disaster which their.?rin«- insurance underwriters present as the Out-come of their St. L-awrence business in The lastten yean Jt is difficult to see how anything *-lseran be expected.

The St. Lavreaec route has lor.g had a most ur-•nvlable ropt'-te for shipwrecks. Two years asjo

t^loyds' rates were increased considerably abovethose ruling for American ports Th» Canadianscried oot aeair.st this, as an unjust discriminatione^air.Ft them and an attempt to discredit theirrational waterway. This year they have poughtincorporation for a Canadian Lloyds, and a bill forthe purpose Is now before the Ottawa House. Themarine insurers against whom this is aimed havemet it with a statement phowins the amazing- ex-tert cf the Josses on that route and the worth-ies* characte- of the lighthouses, signal sta-tiors r.nd other aids to navigation which line thegulf pea board from Belle Isle to the head of tide-water. This statement is an almost destructiveMow to the pretence that Canada has In the St,

Lawrenc* a «afe and advantageous shipping lan«.In brief, the document, which rovers the years

ISS9 to !*>S. inclusive, shows that during that periodtwenty-eight ocean steamers were totally lost onthat route, and that elehty-four etrandingrs oc-curred, fifty cf them in the channel between Mon-treal and Quebec. At least 75 per cent of the losseslifiQbeen In the, St. Lawrence River and Gulf, andgoire if the disasters were to the finest steamers

on the route, and were attended by loss of life.The financlsl aspects were equally discouraging.

Th» Insurance companies during the decade paid

losses on outgoing hulls of 53, 463/00 and on cargoes

P.055.0M. on Incoming hull* t2.560.000. and cargoes

J1.E26.m00. Over and above the premiums actually

received the companies lost BjMMs* a year onchips and hulls, and there seems little or no pros-

pect cf Improvement or any warrant for reducing

the premiums again.

DANGERS AI-ON'G THE ROUTE.

This hopeless showing Is confirmed by the report

m the condition of the waterway from Montrealto the Newfoundland banks, which is a section of

the St. Lawrence route nearly eight hundred mileslong and bristling with danger from fog. Ice. cur-rents and defective charts and signals the wholeway. A--, inquiry was set on foot by the pilots

and shipmasters frequenting the route as to the

conditions of navigation prevailing and the im-!

provements which could be effected. The mastermariners. thirty-tm~>e in all. whose evidence was ,obtained united inthe conclusion that the existing

beacons were obsolete, and that not only shouldthey I*3 ffremly modernized, but a number of miones ought to be eet up. They condemned The lights

en weak, the fog signals as lacking in power, thefcuoys as being unreliable, the signal stations aswrongly placed and the coast as badly charted.

Bad as These conditions were In the outer waters

of The gulf, where no soundings could M got and

the ships had ?ea room, they were worse in theriver, where the channel was narrow and shoal,

being less than M» feet wide ana 2S feet deen. Every

facility existing along the route was of a far lowerstandard than the eteamer captains considered

-war}', and the Imperfections were so many ard

so glaring as to be altogether Inconsistent with thegreatest security to life end property and the ad-vantage rot only of the large Atlantic liners, but

also of all classes of shlpplUsT interested In thecoasting or ocean trad*.

Wit* sneh conditions existing, itIs not surprising

that marine risks should be so high and the St.

Lawrence route ehunned by most of the largeshipowners. Even tramp steamer* avoided It. be-

.cause the burden »'a« so excessive. Insurancerates tbere have been so arranged cf late that achin paying 44X* per cent to Baltimore would pay

i10 or even 11 per cent to Montreal. This would¦jean an extra charge of £25.000 on a boat worthhaif a million making five round trips there during

the season of or-en navigation, which is about sevenmonths— from ate] to November, incluelve." Thesecharges frighten shipowners off, and they seekcharters at the American ports, without much diffl-cu!:y in obtaining ih»-m, the result being thatfreights are diverted from Montreal to the com-peting ports, crippling Canada's great emporiummore and more every year.

COMPARISON OF EXPORTS.How great this injury is can be realized by the

fart that the United States exports annually 200,-

000.000 bushels of wheat and flour. 200.C00.000 bushelsof com and an equal dead weight of oats, barley,bacon, pork and kindred commodities. Canada'slargest exportation at grain in one year was but44,000.000, and much of this came from theAmerican West; because until the last two or tnree

years a poodly stream of United States products

flowed out through the St. Lawrence, it IOC theshortest ar.d most .lirect route to Europe. But the

Irequert .... the Increasing insurance and thegeneral dissatisfaction compelled them to turn tothe <hea;*r and saler, if longer, route by theArr.erican ports. The oth<r side of the matter isnow seen in the fact that the Canadian province cfManitoba last year exported sC.Ojij.wX) bushels of.grain to Great Britain, and out of that quantityle?s than 14 ;.er cent went by way of Canada. th«:other W, per cent poiug out through American '-han-r.fls. Montreal last eeanon did a much «ma!Urrrain export trade than for some years previously,ar.d with the withdrawal of the steamer lines nowannounced it Is certain to be less than ever thisyear.

ESTIMATED COST OF IMPROVEMENTS.

tToimprove the St. I^awrenee route to an extent

whi'-h would enable it to compete with Portland.Boston or New-York will involve an expenditurecf J5.0C0.900, and cuch an outlay the Canadian Oov-err.aier.t ia not disposed to undertake until It issatisfied that Montreal can continue to be the preat

nation.il port of the Dominion. The danger <f thislies in the fact that Quebec is really the naturalharbor, whereas to reach Montreal involves di-edg-Isg the river up to that point, a distance of ls>3 miles.

The present depth of water is about twenty-fightiett. and the present demand Is for a depth of»fciny feet. But New-York Is now planning '¦' r aforty loot channel and the question 1- iisked

•whether Montreal can hope to equal this, orWhether, even Ifitcan, It is wise to attempt it withQuebec available at such a short distance away.Ja olden times of railway running the transfer (l
