that the Grand Trunk approached on the subject
three times with frultless results Mr.. Van Horne
referred to Sir Henry Tylcr's statements concerning

pointed ont that tie connection with that line

New. York Central lie also pointed out that the
Ontario and Quebec system and the other Eastern
lines controlled by the Canadian Pacific were prac-

valuable business, and that the Eastern con-
