An Important Meeting.

eee

Monrreat, Nov. 25.

he. An adjourned meeting of the Canadian Pacitic Railway shareholders was held yes- terday evening, to consider the lease of the | Detroit extension of the Oatario and | Quebec Railway. The shares represented ;and voted (127,800) were unanimous to | confirm the lease whereby the road will ob- | tain an éntrance into Detroit, and thence to , Chicago by building from London to Windsor, and thence by ferry to Decriot. President VanHorne, during the meeting, submitted correspondence with the Grand Trunk \ailway concercing a trackage lease be- tween London, Onat., and the Detriot River, from which it appears that the Grand Trunk Railroad was approached on the subject three times with fruitless re- sults. He referred to Sir Henry Tyler’sstate- ments concerning the Canadian Pacific Rail- road in his speech at the recent half-yearly meeting of the Grand Trunk as unfair and misleading. He explained the relations of the Canadian Pacitic with the Michigan Central, and pointed out that the connec- tion with that line was rendered valueless through its control by the New York Cen- jtral. Mr. VanHorne also pointed out that ithe Ontario and Quebee system, and the other eastern lines controlled by the Cana- dian Pacific Company, were practically de- barred from participation in the heavy

ireights and passenger’ traffic _be- tween the Western and New England States, and from much other valuable

business, and now that the Eastern con- nections of the Company were well estab- lished, the immediate completion of the Detroit extension seemed to be an absolute necessity. It would at once place+the Company inan independent position and tend very largely to attaining power. Presi- dent Van Horne spoke confidently of the future of the road and looked for an_ in- creased surplus this year. | This action of the Company means that the C. P. Road has declared war against the Grand Trunk and New York Central and is determined to get its share of the vast tratlic centering in Chicago.
