The Canada Atlantic now enters Mon
treal over the Grand Trunk railroad. A
section of road about fourteen miles long
is being built from the St. Lawrence and
Adirondack line opposite Montreal to St.
Lambert where connection is made with
the South Shore railway. which is own d
by the same group OF capitalists that own
the st. Lawrence and Adirondack and in
whose interest the Canada Atlantic has
