Canadian Plans for the Grain Trade. Special Correspondence to the MARINE REVIEW. Krnasron, Ont.,June 23.--It is probably as well that a dull spell in marine matters is noted at present, as on Saturday last there were fully 2,000,000 bushels of grain stored at Montreal waiting for a change in prices before be- There are also 700,000 bushels of rye and oats Had the ing moyed across the ocean. on the track, there being no storage accommodation available. rush kept on there is no telling what would be the result. At a recent meeting of the board of trade the elevator matter was brought up, with the result that negotiations are going on between the citizens and the YARDS OF THE CRAIG SHIP BUILDING COMPANY--CITY OF TOLEDO ON THE STOCKS. The consumption of iron ore in 1891, according to the an- nual report of the American Iron and Steel Association, was about 1,760,000 gross tons less than in 1890, or 15,740,000 tons, against about 17,500,000 tons in 1890. The decreased consump- tion in 1891 was borne chiefly by the producers of domestic ore. The imports of iron ore in 1891 amounted to 912,864 gross tons, against 1,246,830 tons in 1890. Freight Boat Records. Under a standing head the Review again prints records of speed and big cargoes made by freight steamers on the lakes. The steamer Maryland, built by the Detroit Dry Dock Company and owned by the Inter-Ocean Transportation Company of Mil- waukee, has already improved upon her own record of last vear, having taken 3,345 gross tons of iron ore out of Escanaba on June 6 for South Chicago. With the increased draft of water other big steamers will increase last year's records of grain and ore cargoes taken through the rivers, and masters or owners are requested to report to the REVIEW any improvement 1n either speed or big loads. The steamer Western Reserve this week took 3,017 gross tons out of Escanaba for Lake Erie, but her draft was less than last season's limit through the rivers.

If arrangements can not be effected be- tween this company and the city, it is probable that speculators in the west will be asked to step in, as it is understood they are willing to do so. If a500,- 000 bushel elavator were erected here large quantities of grain could be brought on and even sold at this point. It is claimed that the investment would be a paying one. On Saturday the Collinsby Rafting Company launched its new steel tug valued at $30,000. The damage to the propeller Glengarry, owned by the Montreal Trans- portation Company, which was badly burned ten days ago, has been placed at 56,500. Prompt assistance from shovelers kept the damage under $100. The range lights are now in position, and Capt. A.
