CHICAGO September 10th. - The Inter
Ocean's New York special says The COM

been for some time the subject of negotiation
in London. Recent dispatches have an
nounced that the negotiations have been
closed successfully, and that syndicate of
English and French capitalists had been
formed, which would insure the speedy CON-
pletion of the road. This announcement Is
said to be premature by those likely to know
the progress of deliberations. Dispatches
received in this city to-day gave the names of
Morton, Rose & Co. of London, the Societe
Montreal as members of the syndicate
Levi 2. Morton, of Morton, Bliss
& Co., said that he did not understand that
the negotiations had been concluded. His
friends in England were considering the
merits of the project, but no positive result
had been reached so far as he had been in
formed. Walter Watson, of New York,
agent of the Bank of Montreal, said the
bank was likely to take part in the compile
tion of the road, but he had not been in
formed in detail OF the positive arrangements. |
If these arrangements had been perfected he
would be informed of the particulars at an |
early day He expressed no doubt of the |
early completion of the Canadian road.
