Interchange of traffic ordered in Canada.—A joint meeting of the Board of Railway Commissioners of Canada and the Ontario Railway & Municipal Board was held in Galt, Ont., on June 20, 1912, to consider the application of the Boards of Trade of Galt for an order to direct the Grand Trunk Railway, the Galt, Preston & Hespeler Street Railway and the Preston & Berlin Railway to connect their lines in places mentioned in the application. After hearing the evidence, the joint commission ordered an interchange between the Galt, Preston & Hespeler Street Railway and the Grand Trunk Railway at a location to be mutually agreed up, the engineer of the Dominion Railway Board to make the selection if the representatives of the railways disagree in regard to the location of the connecting track. The question of distribution of cost will be decided later. The commission also reserved decision as to what rates should be charged for interswitching. A similar decision was reached in regard to the connection between the Grand Trunk Railway and the Preston & Berlin Railway.
