Frank Carrell stated that large quantites of Russian pulpwood had been imported into Canada last year and that he had been informed that further shipments would be made this year. ME en d C 20 Pulp and paper men in Montreal scout the possibility of shipments of puipwood ffrom Russia this year. That such pulpwood came into Canada last year is no secret and in fact the cirâ€" cumstances were fully explained in The Financial Post last summer. American pulp mills were suffering from a shortâ€" age of water at a time when Canadian mills were working at capacity. There was an acute shortage of groundwood and a sudden squeeze in the price. One shipload of Russian groundwood was brought to one mill in Canada, operâ€" ated by an American newspaper pubâ€" lishing concern. _ The shipment came via the St. Lawrence. Just now groundwood producers have a lean and hungry look. New business is scarce and groundwood is selling at sacrifice prices. There is no incentive to import it.

Power May be Brought From North of Cochâ€" rane to the Nickel Area. Last year The Advance had referâ€" ences to the possibility of Abitibi power being used to suptoly the Sudbury disâ€". trict. At that time the article in The Advance was brushed aside as suggestâ€" | ing something impractical. . All sorts cf objections were raised to the proâ€" posal. One of these was the distance between Sudbury and the source of the proposed new power. In reply to this The Advance might repeat that under the plan this paper believed was being considered there was no reason why the cost of transmission would be proâ€" hibitive. It was understood that the Government intended to take over the Abitibi power development north of Cochrane or at least the surplus powâ€" er available there. Then arrangements might also be made for the Ontario Hydro also taking over the power in this immediate district of the North. Under such a plan there would not be special difficulty about transmission to Sudbury. There is a right of way for transmission of power from the Abitibi to Timmins and at one time the towâ€" ers were up and the lines ready for the transmission. From Timmins fully nalfâ€"way to Sudbury there are also transmission facilities that could be extended to meet the ‘situation. The linking up of the Abitibi power and Sudbury would not be a difficult matâ€" That there was something to The Advance‘s article last year is proven by the fact that the proposal is now being revived. In the last issue of The Norâ€" thern Miner there was the ;ollowi.ng reference to the matter:â€"*"No decision had been reached early this week, so The Northern Miner learned, in reâ€" spreet to the Ontario government‘s big northern power proposals for Sudbury district. Three alternative developâ€" ments are under considerationâ€"Ottaâ€" wa river, Abitibi river and Mississaug@ reserve. This position seems to favour development down the Abitibi river north of Cochrane, where 100,0C00 to 200,000 h.p. lies ready for installation of dams and turbines. Although this will involve a long transmission line to Ssudbury, 200 miles distant, the treâ€" mendous amount of power which can be developed cheaply is in favour of operations at this site. It is thought that Mississauga power will be held in reserve prpnding the completing of plans for big iron ore developments to be centred on Sault Ste. Marie. These developments, if brought to fruition, should make one of the biggest featutes of Ontario mining life.

THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO PUBLIG INTEREST AGAIN CENTRED ON GOLD STOGKS Dividend Producers Offer Much Atâ€" tractions These Days. All Make Progress. Gold Stocks Partiâ€" cularly Attractive These Days. Post last week:â€" One of the most praomising features ~nf the mining market during the past week have been the revival of interest and trading in the dividendâ€"playing Ontario gold stocks. Hollinger achievâ€" ed a new high for the year ofâ€"$7, while Daome, MciIntyre, Lake Shore and Teckâ€" Hughes all moved up to within reach of their high marks for the preseni year. Rumours of a conference between N. A. Timmins and J. P. Bickel, presiâ€" dents of Hollinger and McIntyre, with the object of entering into negotiations to merge the two properties was reâ€" ported to have caused the sudden show of interest in these two stocks. The story is @an old one and is revived at stated intervals, although it has been frequently denied. It is doubtful if the directors of the two companies would see eye to eye when it came to placing perties. The Hollinger annual report was Of a constructive nature in itself, however, and further good news is anticipfhated at the forthcoming annual meeting to be held at Montreal on Friday. McIntyre closed its fiscal year March 31 and reports for the first threeâ€"~â€"quarâ€" ters of the year have already indicated that substantial progress nas peen made. The annual report should, therefore, prove a satisfactory one to shareholdâ€" ers, and again show further increases to ore reserves and cash surplus, while it is hoped some announcement may be made this year as to mill construction, an increase in dividends is even posâ€" sible. Th@ Dome annual mesting will be held April 19 and it is expacted a deâ€" fnite arnouncement of mill construcâ€" tion will be made, as it is ‘inderstood "Ri~ vCctk is to begin as soon as conditions permit. Declaration by Teckâ€"Hughes‘ direcâ€" tors of the regular quarterly dividend of 15 cents a share, payable May 1 to shareholders of record April 16, would indicate that the oprration is continuâ€" ing the favourable snowing set out in the report for the first quarter, and it is expected production for the second quarter will exceed $1,400,000. Lake Shore, it is understood, is millâ€" ing around 1,400 tons of ore a day. Delays in delivery have slowed up the bringing of the mill to the 2,000 ton day basis, but it is expected this objecâ€" tive will be reached within the next two months at least. There is every reason to believe that a further inâ€" crease in dividends may be anticipated by shareholders when the higher millâ€" ing quota is reached, and possibly beâ€" fore this. On the whole, the outlook for the Ontario gold producers is more promisâ€" ing at the present time than ever beâ€" fore, and signs are not wanting that traders are again looking with interâ€" est on this group. Depression in base metal prices and in general industrial conditions only add to the attractiveâ€" ness of these stocks and the high yield The following is from The Financiali e uh. dniiie d Eut SE some of them return is particularly pleasing in these days of cheap money. A great many of the big mining comâ€" panies have been obliged to withdraw the large sums of money they had out on call in the New York market beâ€" cause of the low rates now obtaining. It is highly probable that some of this money will now be directed to the Onâ€" tario gold stocks, particularly those which are still young mines with the peak of their production still lying ahead of them. M es‘ Kirkland Lake Northern News:â€" Surely R. D.

He had apparently electrocuted himself, following a quarrel with a young lady with whom he was infatuated. The young man was only eighteen years of age. The story of the tragedy is thus told by The New Liskeard Speaker in its last issue:â€" en tm e ie ie e e e e N 00 C 0 0 000 1 4 [ "Shortly before oneâ€"o‘clock (noon) | on Wednesday, as Mr. Stan Mallett, of ! the Canada Northern Fower, went over‘ to the rear of the subâ€"station on Lake : Shore Road, he noticed the body of a | man lying inside the high wire en-] closure in which stand the large high’ power transformers. He immediately| called Mr. Rutledge, Town Roads Comâ€" | missioner, and then Chief Miller. In-‘ vestigation revealed the fact that the boay was that of Russell Penman, | adopted son of Mr. Joseph Penman,| aged 18 years. The young man‘s face' was badly bruised and he was lying in | such a position as to lead to the con-l clusion that he had probably come in contact with the high tension line and fallen from the top of the eight foot wire fencing which surrounds these transformers on three sides, with the building forming the fourth side. An inquest was held during the afternoon, before Dr. J. S. McCullough, the jury panel consisting of C. H. Currey (foreâ€" man), S. E. Thicke, M. England, J. R. Bailey, S. A. Robertson, J. S. Taylor| and P. B. Morris The evidence of] several witnesses was heard and the facts indicated that he had left his lodging house, where he resided with Mr. Penman, early in the evening of the preceding day and later attended a dance at the Wellington Hotel. He apâ€" parently left the Hotel about 2â€"o‘clock in the morning, the evidence showing that he had had "words‘" with one of the witnesses prior to his departure. Nothing more was seen of him. The body was found by Mr. Mallett. The jury brought in the following verdict: "The Jury summoned to inquire into the death of Russell Penman are of the unanimous opinion that deceased came to his death in a momment of mentalâ€" aberration, by grasping an electric wire carrying eleven thousand volts, no blame to be attached to anyone." ‘Toronto Mail and Empire:â€"An Engâ€" lish adventurer proposes to dive off the Ambassador bridge at Windsor, a disâ€" tance of 180 feet above the water. The honour to be won by such exploits is extremely transitory, as was proved in the case of Steve Brodie. A gentleman once took his son to the spot on the Brooklyn, bridge from which Brodie had made his celebrated leap and said: "YÂ¥es, my boy, this is where Brodie jumed off the bridge?" "Jumped off it?" echoed the boy. "I thought he jumped over it."
