What
might
have,
resulted
In
a
very
serious
train
wreck
was
avoided
in
the
nick
of
time
on
the
Canadian
Tacific
Railway
Parry
Sound
subdivision,
by
section
foreman
Con-xani,
who
while
patrolling
the
track
near
Brignall
recently
discovered
two
large
iron
nuts
on
top
of
the
rails,
securely
fastened
with
hay
wire.
The
foreman
had
Just
time
to
unfasten
the
wire
and
remove
the
nuts
to
clear
the
track
for
a
train
was
due
in
five
minutes.
Two
boys
in
the
vicinity
admitted,
after
questioning,
that
they
wired
the
nuts
to
the
rails.
They
were
sentenced
to
the
local
shelter
for
one
month
and
their
fathers
were
required
to
give
bond
and
report
to
the
authorities
for
two
years.
Evidence
given
by
farmers
before
the
U.S.
Tariff
Commission
showed
that
under
American
railway
rates
a
bushel
of
wheat
could
be
hauled
only
35
miles
for
one
rent,
while
under
Canadian
rates
the
same
amount
of
money
would
move
the
same
amount
of
grain
66
miles.
American
farmers
claim
that
this
is
a
saving
in
favor
of
the
Canadian
producer
of
44
per
cent,
or
about
8
cents
a
bushel.
The
reason
given
for
the
difference
is
that
in
the
United
States
grain
rates
are
based
on
cost
of
moving
it
to-day,
while
in
Canada
they
are
bssed
on
197
costs,
when
the
Crow's

Pass
