Rates of Freight.

I am personally indebted to Mr. P. G. Shaughenessy, vice-president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, for special facilities extended to me in the furtherance of my mission.

Attached hereto is a copy of a letter, dated the 12th October, from the Freight Traffic Manager, covering a memorandum of goods exported, and the rates of freight thereon. I also attach a summarised memorandum of the freights per "Warrimoo," which exhibits the steady development of the trade since the inauguration of the Vancouver service.
