RA!11IFICATiONS OF C. P. R.
General Manager of Company Speaks of
New Lines in Ontario.
A Toronto despatch says : \ir. J. W.
Leonard, assistant Genera{ Manager of
the Canadian Pacific Railway, made a
statement yesterday as to the com-
pany's intentions regarding els pro-
posed line from Montreal to Toronto.
Ile said It would leave the present line
at or near Kesuptville Junction for
Ilreckville, from where it would skirt
Meng Ute St. Lawrence River and the
north share of Lake Ontario, touching
ail the towns en route. It is expected the
grade will not exceed a maximum of
3-11) per cent. It will be some time be-
fore surveys are completed.
Itegarding the company's new line
from Victoria harbor. he said it would
probably puss a few miles north of
Peterboro' and connect with the main
line between the town and Ilnvelock.
The reason of this decision not to lei
through Peterboro' was because an
easier grade and shorter line Ls obtain-
able through territory north. A grade
of 3-10 per cent. would be found. The
construction of the road. including ter -
tomtits and elevalors, would cost about
$5,000,000.
