First CP rail car crosses Lachine bridge on St Lawrence
The first passenger car and engine crossed the new Canadian Pacific bridge over the St Lawrence River at Lachine on Saturday. The issue notes 59 miles of new rail on two lines, bringing this year's new mileage to 2548, vs 1055 last year and 1272 in 1885. Atchison Topeka Santa Fe now has 11,200 stockholders, a corporate record. EK Henderson says interstate law will cut this year’s earnings by about 200000, more likely as freight on Peoria division is down 25 percent. He cites passenger and Ohio division gains as offset. The Red River Valley railroad is deemed a public work under Manitoba’s act, enabling expropriation and possible injunction blocks, heightening friction with Dominion authorities.
