Another Hitch in the Transfer of the Drummond Railway. Blair Has “Other Fish to Fry.” Mostreat, Dec. 31.—Another delay has taken place in connection with the exten-~ sion of the Intercolonial Railway over the Drammond County Railway into Montreal. Some months ago it was said that the Drummond Railway could not be got; ready in time to permit trains being ran into Montreal! before January first. It now certain that it will be some time after that before service will be commenced. Various reasons are advanced for the delxy. A statement was circulated at first to the effect that there was some difficalty about bridges on the Drummond County road not coming up to the standard requir- ed by the Government bridge inspector. Now it is stated, however, that there is another and more serious reason for the hitch. It isthat Hon. Mr. Blair has suddenly discovered tha* he wants to make the Canada Eastern Railway and the Gib- eon road in New Brunswick part of the Intercolonial; and while he has no olyection to the Drummond County road, he wants the supporters of that company to pledge themselves to put the Canada Kartern deal through at the same. This bas caused no little excitement among the promoters of the Drummond County deal, ae th: y do not 18 wish the success of their business joopardized by any such conflicting pro- position. Mr. Blair, it is stated, figures that with- out the support of the Quebec members he could not accomplish his object and now he wants the two arrangemeute put through parlisment together.
