Sufficient realm for watehing carefully tho

being succesafnlly issued in London that
have not the baching of some interna-
tionally well known Canadian bond house.
Land, and particularly timber compan-
ies, have gone a long way to help dis-
credit Canadian securities in T.ondon. Per-
haps it would be more accurate to say
that the British investor has become very
ekePtical with. regard to the extravagant
promises of a number of theve. Yore
than a few of last year's isaues were
taken to London, which were in no posi-
tion to be offered as investments. As a
result the underwriters were loaded 'up
with a lot of stuff that they are still
vainly trying to unload, on the public.
This has, of cours.e, affected the market
for high. grade Canadia,n bonds, so that
we find very excellent municipal iesnee

this has been marked. A year ago Bran-
don debentures could be 'readily sold on -

a 41-2 per cent. basis. Now these may Government
be bought at 43-4 or even 47-8 per cent.
This is just a sample of the effect of the
dullness In Louden on our market here.
What the bond houses and municipalities
tire hoping for is, of course, a reversal
of form in London, and a renewed de-
mand for our municipal debentures. This
would mean that many bonds purchased
during this year will show a very hand-
iest/le increase in, price of two to four
• points. It would also make a very good
demand for many debentures which city
•councils have been afraid of issuing ow-
ing to the lack of demand from London.
For though prectioally all our municiell
debentures are sold to Canadian bond
houses, most of these place the greater
pereentage of the large issues in London.
That ia one reason why the London
market is so important. Another reason
Is that the English investor is satisfied
with a lower yield than the Canadian
and th most of OUr low yield bonds are
sold there.
Moreover. our railroads do practically
all their financing in London. Last De-

A despatch from Ottawa says: It
is understood that the Government
has decided to call for tenders in
the near future for the construction
of important harbor improvements
at Victoria, B.C. The work will

The coutemplated improvements

hoped to attract large industral factories.
Docks and wharves whose cost will total
ninny hundred thousands of dollars are
being projected. At present when a boat
from the Atlantic works its way up
through the St. Lawrence canals it cannot
find a place to dock. But that is to be
quickly changed. The sympathy of the
Dominion Governinent has been enlisted
and extensive dredging operations are
now under way. But, of coarse, the great
boon will be the new Welland canal and
-the deepening of the St. Lawrence route
Then Toronto hopes to be a real ocean
port and also on the highway from the
ocean to the head of the Lakes. 'If the
factory development progresses, as hoped
for, Toronto harbor will change from a
piece of pretty scenery the centre of a
hive of industry.
THE PASSING OF If. P. DWIGHT.
The passing of Mr. H. P. Dwight, Pee.
sident of the G. e7. W. Telegraph Com-
pany. removes ohe of Canada's landraarks.
The oldest survivirfe telegrapher in Am-
erica, his reminiscences went back • -th
primitive days in Canada. He "discover -
Hon. George A. Cox, took him into
the employ of the G. N. W. CO as office
boy, and taught him the language of tee
wire. Senator Cox WaS a prominent mour-
ner at the graveside.'
Mr. Dwight was one of the most likeable
men. The bent of his mind was well il-
lustrated by the chief hobby of his later
years. It ,was the Royal Canadian Iln-
mane Society which had for its chief
purpose the rewarding of deeds of brav-
ery. To hear of a deed of heroism, rth
matter how unspectacular the eircum-
stap,ces and reword, the hero was a source
of pleasure _which never lost its Power.
He -took a keen inthrest in public affairs
up tO ir3 last days, but never succumbed
to the modern theories of public, owners'
ship with which he wa s always somewhat
out of sympathy' He was a frequent cor-
rpsr3on d,,n t of the newspaper s over the
