NEW YORK, March 9.-Sir Will
liam @. Van Horn, president Of the
Canadian Pacific is at the Wal

porter last night he said: "There
is no truth in the report that we

prove an arrangement between the
Toronto, Hamilton and Buffalo
company, the Canadian Southern,
the Michigan Central and the

ton and interchange OF traffic and
for the division of tolls, rates and
charges.
"The Toronto, Hamilton & Buff
falo railway is new road. The
other roads mentioned will well
come the lease. 1t traverses the
Niagara peninsula on the Canadian
side and will facilitate the inter-
change Of business between the

The Michigan editors who re-
turned homeward through this
city on Saturday, and passed a few
hours here, were more than enthu-
sisstic over the beautiful spring
garments that the Alamo City was
putting on. They could hardly
believe that two weeks had made
such change in the face of.nature.
Their delight at finding themselves
again on American soil, notwith-
standing the hearty and cordial

them in Mexico, was unbounded,
and the sight Of the old flag was to
them as the wing of the, bird of
national freedom stretched out

lish the following extract from a

die the remedy referred to and
want their customers to know
what splendid medicine it is:
"It is with pleasure 1 tell you
that by one days use Of Chamber

nearly always starts in the head
and afterward extends to the
throat and lungs. BY using this
remedy freely as soon as the cold
has been contracted it will cure the
cold at once and prevent it from
extending to the lungs. tt
