At the Railway Committee of the Legislature this morning ..  Mr. Beatty, M.P.P. for Parry Sound, in urging the incorporation of the Magnetawan River Railway Company, said it would open up a section of country of greater value to old Ontario than New Ontario would be for a long time to come. The railroad is to run from Burk's Falls to a navigable point on the Magnetawan. The bill was passed, the capital being increased from $30,000 to $50,000. Permission was given to raise $20,000 a mile on the bonds.
