THE CANADIAN PACIFIC.
The Rlvalrjr With the Great Ameri
can Curving Lines.
Toronto, August 16. Sir Joe.
II ckeon has written a letter to tbe
trlobe in. reference to the com
plaints made by American railways
against the Grand Trunk aud
Canadian Pacific. He says : ''Their
complaint is not well founded and
it ia no secret that their desire is
to prevent the Canadian Pacific
..ompeny from carrying us traffic
all, and not that they should be
subject in their traffic arrange
ments to the provisions of the
inter-state commerce act. Tie
Canadian companies, from rha
date when the inter-state com
nerce act came into effect, have
recognized that it was incjmbent
on them in dealing with traffic
trom the United Stales and Canada,
or traffic passing through Canada
from one state to tt e another of
the United States, to observe the
terms of the inter-state act."
Sir Joseph concluded as follows :
"After a somewhat extensive ex
perience I am preprepared to assert
that the Canadian companies do
not derive lrom the bperation of
the act any advantage whatever
over their United States competi
