Canadian Northern Railway construction.
Canadian Northern Québec Ry.—Good progress is reported to have been made upon the construction of the line from Garneau Junction to Québec. The roadbed easterly to Portneuf is ready for the rails, and the piers and abutments for the bridges over the Batiscan and Ste. Anne rivers are almost completed. The work between Portneuf and Québec is fairly heavy, and gangs of men are working throughout the winter on the rock cuttings near Portneuf, Cap Saute, St. Augustin, Les Ecureuils, and Cap Rouge.
