Thousand Islands.—The G.T.R. having decided to remove its Thousand Island Jct. station about 2 miles further east, the T.I.R. is extending its line 2 miles to the new station. The line now runs from Gananoque to Thousand Islands Jct., 4.08 miles. The Dominion Parliament last session voted $6,400 towards the building of this extension. Also for an extension to connect with the Brockville, Westport & Sault Ste. Marie Ry., the Bay of Quinte Ry., the Kingston, Smith's Falls & Ottawa Ry., or the waters of the Rideau Canal, the balance remaining of subsidy granted by 55-56 Vic., chap. 5, not exceeding 9 1/2 miles (revote), $30,400.

The Co. secured an act at the Dominion Parliament's last session largely increasing its powers in regard to electric power & energy, mining, timber lands, patent rights, &c. On its railway from Gananoque for 15 miles north of it is authorized to issue bonds for $30,000 a mile.
