Toronto.—While no official announcement had then been made it was stated on the authority of Sir Lyman Jones, President of the Massey-Harris Co., that the company's tender for the purchase of the Asylum and Central Prison grounds would probably be accepted by the Ontario Government. The company's tender was for 10 acres. The G.T.R. sent in a tender in conjunction with the Massey-Harris Co., and he believed the balance of the land would be sold to the G.T.R. If this statement is correct the G.T.R. will acquire 25 acres of the Asylum site, and the whole of the 23 acres forming the prison site.
