Brown, of Buffalo, NY. is urging the chambar of commerce of that city to adopi a resolutions urging congress to admit Canadian grain to the United States free of duty, so that. Uncle Sam's great country will regain the great volume of the Cana- dian grain business = which now goes via the St. Lawrence to Montreal. The resolution he has submitted points out the great benefits to be derived from striking off the duty. At present the only Canadian grain going by United States route is that sent to Buffalo when the volume of business is too great for the Canadian routes. This matter will, no doubt, receive the consideration of the Canadian Boards of Trade. However, the cost of carrying via the St. Lawrence is much cheaper than by wag of Bufialo.
