Puget Sound Bhows a gain of 12 per cent, and ban trancisco a gain of less than 10 per cent.- Coming at a time when rival ports are making so much fuss over Portland's "declining" wheat trade, the government figures make a very pleasing showing.

The meeting was a lively fight throughout. Majority and minority re ports were filed by the committee or. resolutions, on the subject of fusion. Tkeee were referred back to the com mittoa anil u nulit. HpftR-inn otderpd.
