The Grand Trunk Railway and Canadian Pacific have made the rates on hardwoods from certain points to Toronto and Hamilton as follows. The regulations are over the signature of Mr. John Earls, , of the G. T. R., and given in reply to a letter from Toronto hardwood men : " After careful consideration we have come to the con- clusion that, on and after Jan. 1st, 1895, a modification will be made in the present arrangements for hardwood lumber, to the effect that the rate will be 7^0 per 10c lbs from our Northern and Northwestern branches to Toronto and Hamilton. This rate, however, will not apply from main line points and the straight run be- tween Toronto, Sarnia and Windsor ; also that so far as rates on common lumber to points like Guelph, Gait London, Woodstock, Ingersoll, etc., from all lumber shipping stations the rate will be the same on hardwood as on ; On the old principle, we suppose, that half the loaf is better than none, hardwood men have something, possibly, to be thankful for, though there is no good reason why the rates generally on hard- wood should not be as low as on pine. It is understood that the C. P. R. rate will be made uniform at j^c from same point
