C.P.R. betterments, construction, etc.

Campbellford, Lake Ontario and Western Ry.—An act extending the time for the construction of this projected railway for two years for commencement and five years for completion, has been passed at the current session of the Dominion Parliament.

A recent Montréal despatch stated that the C.P.R. had no intention of abandoning the construction of this line, which has been surveyed from the Ontario and Québec Ry., east of Smith's Falls, and serving the Lake shore towns, to a junction with the O. and Q. Ry. near Leaside Jct. The construction of this line, it was stated, would do away with the necessity of constructing a second track on the present line, and further, that when a double track line between Montréal and Toronto became necessary, the second track would be constructed on the right-of-way of the C.L.O. and W. Ry.

Railways: C.L.O. & W.Ry., C.P.Ry., O. & Q.Ry.
