Ottawa, Nov. 26.--Before the _ election for the Ontario legislature, The Citizen is informed, several new seats will be created, including one for Ottawa West. Nothing definite has yet been officially announced but this is the general opinion of those who are in close touch with Sir James Whitney and the members of his cabinet, 3 With the exception of Welland, Ot. tawa West has the largest population for one representative in Ontario. The member for this constituency represents about 60,000 people. In ad- dition to these two, extra seats will also be given to Toronto, Hamilton and London.

BREAK FROM LIBERALS The Trend of Opinion of Nationa Labormen Said to Favor Independence. London, Nov, 26-Will the labor |, party break from the liberal party | and the present parliament ? This is a ouestion that vitally interests the liberals, and is of great moment to the tories. The trend of opinion in the national labor party is in fave: of regaining their independence by standing aloof from the other parties. If they decide on this course they may lose some weats in the commons, but there will be no dissentions in their || ranks. The annual conference of the party at Glasgow next .Jammary is being looked forward to with exceptional in terest. Ome of the most important resolutions to be submitted warns the labor. party to be wary of Lloyd teorge's land scheme, which is re garded as practically of no valug, and to authorize the parliamentary party to prepare a bill on the nationaliza- tion land dcheme.

Mr. Richard- son is busily engaged at present in settling his paper, the Tribune, in a six-storey building, and it is said he would find a difliculty in taking the time necessary to fight a strenuous bhye-election. The suggestion is made that the lib- rals and grain growers may compro- mise on a vandidato, though nothing has been said as to the identity of the man. There appears to be little doubt that Mr. Morrison ill again be the conservative candidate. No arrangements have yet heen made for nomination conventions, but they will be called at once, with the clee- tion less than three weeks away. The only certainty is that there will be no acclamation for anybody. SPLENDID RETURNS, Million Dollar Surplus Figured O for the LC. R. Ottawa, Nov. 26.--The Intercolonial for surplus of ars.

All the Wheat Grown in Canada Can Be Ground Here--Hon, G. E. Fos- ter Asks That Steamship and Mill- ing Interests Get Together. Ottawa, Nov. 26.--A - delegation representing four of the great mill- ing companies of Canada, the Ogil- vie, the Lake of the Woods, - the Western Canada, and the Maple Leaf, waited upon Hon. Geo. E. Fos- ter, minister of trade and commerce, vesterday, and urged that some ac- ticn be taken to remove the dis- crimination which at present exists hatween the ocean freight rates on wheat and flour exported from Ca- nada. The members of the delegation claimed that during the past year a good export business had been ruined by the discriminatory rates in favor of the raw product charged by the steamship companies. During the past year or so steamship rates had increased from 50 to 100 per rent. The millers did not mind that, but in the same period, the rates charged for the carriage of flour were from five to twelve cents per hundred higher than on wheat. This discrimination they held was heavily in favor of the foreign and British miller, who was enabled to take ad- vantage of the low rate on wheat, and who benefited in his competition with the Canadian miller through the high rate on flour. For ten years, the delegation claimed, the average difference be- tween the rates on wheat and: flour was litle more than two cents. The freight rates on both were later ad- vanced to 23 cents per hundred. It was then reduced on wheat, but kept stationary on flour until the difference ranged from five to twelve cents per hundred in favor of the, raw product. This meant that the wheat was carried cheaply for the foreigner, while an almost prohibi- tive rate was placed on flour. "In one year," said a member of the delegation, '"we have lost a profit- able business. If we made the dif- ference on the rates along, we would have a good return on our busl- ness." \ \ Grind 'All fn Canada. The members of the delegation claimed that, with all the mills in Canada at present running at capacity three hundred days a year, all the wheat grown in Canada could be ground on Canadian soil, while the ofial could be retained for the feeding oi Canadian live stock. As the consumption of Canada, however, is only about fifty million bushels per year, computing one barrel of flour per head of popu- lation, a large export trade was need- ed to keep the mills running. In fact it is estimated that fifty per cent. could be exported after thé Canadian demand is met. So long as the for- eign miller had the advantage of low rates on the raw product, and so long as the present high rates Obtained og flour, an export trade must be a fail- ure. The delegation pointed out that as there are seventy pounds of offal for every barrel of flour it was in the in- terest of Canada to have the wheat ground in Canadian mills Apparently the Canadian Northern and Canadian Pacific companies had little regard ior this, as they charged the same discriminating rates as the others. 'Mr. Foster suggested that the steam- ship and milling interests get togeth-, er and confer on the question. He referred the delegation to-the report of Chairman Drayton, of the Railway Commission on ocean rates, and ex- pressed doubt, on the face of this as to whether anything could be done without joint international action The Imperial Trade Commission was investigating 'the gemeral question at present. He would, however, give the matter his most earnest attemtion. It is believed that the delegation urged against the abolition of the duties on wheat and flour to meet the United States offer of reciprocal trade. : wheat in Suicide in Hallucination.
