Crowds met the ship when she steamed into the harbor, and the occasion was marked by a civic dinner to Captain J. W. Troup, manager of the Canadian Pacific British Columbia Coast Service, which was attended by two hundred citizens. Mayor and alderâ€" men of the city were present, as well as representatives of the Provincial Government. The company was repreâ€" sented by Viceâ€"President Grant Hall, J. J. Scully, general manager eastern lines, and C. H. Temple, chief of motive power and equipment, who crossed Canada from Montreal to be present, and Charlee Murphy, general manager western lines, Winnipeg. As a recogniâ€" tion of his many years‘ effort in contributing to the upbuilding of Victoria, Captain Troup was presented with a massive silver tray suitably engraved. _ In returning thanks, Captain Troup told the history of the company‘s coastal steamship service since 1901, when he had taken over its management. At that time it reprzesented an investment of about $250,000, whereas, he said, it now ‘amounted to well over seven million dollars, while its expenditures in Victoria fizr equipment and supplies amounted to $43,000 mo=thly and Victoria‘s share of the monthly pay roll was $65,5000. He told of the building up of the fleet, ship by ship, as growing trade warsanted.
