This, he said, was a charge against every individual who had anything to do with the con- struction of the road. It was a charge against every engineer. .It was] a charge against the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, against Messrs: Hays and Chamberlain against the whole Dominion which was linked up with th-e prollect.

Mr. Graham then dealt with the
'question of the standard of construc- tion of the road.
