Canadian Northern Ry. construction, etc.
...
Canadian Northern Ontario Ry.—An Ottawa dispatch states that the difficulties in the way of securing an entrance into Ottawa beyond Hurdman's bridge are in a fair way being adjusted, and that the new plan will involve a bridge over the C.P.R. and the G.T.R. tracks.
The Supreme Court has affirmed the Board of Railway Commissioners' order granting the company permission to construct sidings from the G.T.R. main line in Scarboro tp., near Toronto, to the C.N.R. right-of-way between Toronto and Ottawa, for the purpose of transferring construction material.
In the Ontario Legislature Mar. 10, the Minister of Public Works stated that the company had built and placed in operation 30 miles of line northerly from Sellwood Jct., to Hutton tp., and that four survey parties were in the field between the latter point and Port Arthur, locating a route for further construction.
J. M. Campbell is in charge of a staff of engineers, going over the route of the Toronto-Ottawa line, easterly from Trenton, Ont. On the western section of the line between Toronto and Trenton rapid progress is being made with construction.
