Lachine, Jacques Cartier and Maisonneuve Ry.—The route maps of the projected line from St. Catharine St., Montréal, to Jacque Cartier Jct., about seven miles, have been approved by the Department of Railways. They show a line from near Jacques Cartier Jct., northeasterly, crossing the C.P.R. and the Montréal Park & Island Ry., and thence southerly and easterly to a terminal and station on St. Catharine St., between Frontenac and Harbor St. This will give the G.T.R. a belt line round the city. It is reported that practically all the land necessary for the line has been acquired, and that construction will be started as soon as certain matters are arranged between the company and the city to the satisfaction of the Board of Railway Commissioners.
Railways: C.P.Ry., G.T.Ry., L.J.C & M.Ry.
