Central Ontario.—Grading & track laying have been completed on the 21-miles extension from 2 1/2 miles east of Ormsby to 1 1/2 miles north of Bancroft. Ballasting is being done as fast as possible, & it is expected the extension will be open for traffic early in Sept. (Mar., pg. 72.)

The directors have not come to any decision as to when further extension of the line to the Canada Atlantic, near Whitney, will be proceeded with. The Ontario Legislature has voted a subsidy of $3,000 a mile for 40 miles of the further extension, & the Dominion Parliament last session voted $64,000 for 20 miles of the same. (May, pg. 143.)
