CATTLE AND CANUCKS, ‘The principal topic of conversation In raiway circles and among stock-shippers here during the lset few days has been the action of the Canadian Government in prohloiting tho en- trance Into the Dominfon of *horned cattle,” cither for through shipment or otherwise, for the perlod of three months, This actlon euts oft the Michigan Central, Great Western, Urand Trunk, nud Canada Southern from dolng any through stock busincss. A larke amount of lve stock which lad been shipped fur the East from this city over the Michigan Central and Great Western was turocd back at Wina- rar, opoosite Detrolt, uml had to he taken via Toledo, At the advent of the present trouble it was understood that stock would be recelved into ° Liverpool, subject to Inspection, und under sucl conditlon of things there might bave been ro real hardship, Lat- terly, however, doubt was thrown upon this point, und Canadian shippers, acting on advice from thelr aggents, deciderd not to eend any (real cargoes, Tt English Privy Councll, urged by the agricultural interests, are constdering the advisubility of schedullug te Ublted States as an dnfected country, Should the decision be favorable to the States, the Canadian Goveru- ment wiil havo to undo what it has done In pro- hibiting for the space of three months the im- portation of American cattle into Canada, or their pussage through ang part_of Canada. If & this s not dune il ‘the East-bound cat- te-trade will haye to go over ronds that have not to pnss through Canada. It s clatmed by shippers here that the actlon of the Domiolon Guverninent was unwarranted, 08 it must be awara of the fact that thee exists no epidemie cattle disease inany part of the United Stutes, and at the same time it strikes n severe blow at its own raliroads, which will suf fer immensc losses on account of the stoppaue of their stock traflic. 1t Is charged that aring of Canadian cattle-shippers are mainly respon ble for the action of tie Dominivn Government. ‘This ring wants to exclude Amerlcan cattle frum Canadian and English markets for a short perlod Lo dispose of a large amount of Inferior alstillery-fed cattia they have now on hand, wid cannot ~ dispose of as long as they have 1o competo with the Amiericans, ‘The reason that they cannot compete 18 beeauss the steamship lines frum the various Sastern scaports do uot charge so much per bundred pounds in cattlo shipments, but so uch por head, regardless of the weight of the cattle. The American cattle are alinost twice o8 heavy as the Canadian, und, theretore, the tes lor tho latter are alnost twice as large. The Conadian Government has evidently made a bad mistuke in exclud- Iog Amerlcan cattle from Canada or from passing thraugh its Dominlon, wnd, while it cannot be denied that this action greatly in- Jjures the American shippers wid some of the ‘American roads, yeo thelr sulerings can o no way be compared with the damage that is in- flicted by {t upon Canadian raliroads and Cana- disn vommerce. A WAR DOTII EAST AND WEST, The Genecral Managers of the roads leading Eoast from here who have been fn the city fur the Jast three days waiting for ** something to turn up" which would enable them to settlo the Enst-bound freight and passenger diffleul- ties, left for thelr respective homes last evenlog without having accomplished anything, and matters sre cuntioually growing worse. At thefr Orst conference, day beforeyesterday, they goon becamu couvinced that they could como to no understandlng, so diversitied were thelr Ideas abotit the settlement of the difliculties. The matter was therefore submiticd to the trunk. 1ine Presldents, who are ulso the Presidents of the ruads East from Chicaro, and an inmediate declsfon was requested. ‘They waited patlently fur an answer untfl yesterday, when a reply was recelved that a “meetivg of the irunk lines could wot ~he ~held, owing 1o the fuabllity of President Garrett, of the Dalti- more & Obilo, to be presont at this time. This settled the mutter, sud nothing was left for the managers bere to do except to pack up theie duds and go home and allow matters to go on ns they havo during the last month or two, The competition betwecn the varlous Easte, roads on buth frefaht and passenger busine has naw becumu nore active than ever, nud cutting of the rstes fs the order of the day. ‘There are no regular freleht-rates quoted, and it {3 understood that the various Mnes tuke the businces at the best rates they ean get, All the roads leading Enst sell passenger tickets yet at $17 from Chicago to New York, $3 Jess than the regular rute, but the feeltug Is sucl that o further reduction may be made nt an moment, ‘The scalpers are already sell- ing the some tickets for 81550, ‘Ihiey are ensbiea to do this by buylng Boston tickets und selling the Boston coupons to New York scalpers. _‘The West-bound 13”in no better shape than the East-bound business, and cutting 11 freight and passenzer rales is just ns active.
