    It is well known that R. Fuchs derived the sixth Painlevé equation as an isomonodromic deformation equation of a linear differential equation of the second order. His result was extended by \textit{R. Garnier} [Ann. Sc. Norm. Sup. Pisa, Cl. Sci. 29, 1-126 (1912)]. The purpose of this paper is to transform the Garnier system, according to Okamoto, by a canonical transformation into a system of the form \(\{dq_ j=\sum^{N}_{i=1}(\partial H_ i/\partial q_ j)ds_ i\), \(dp_ j=- \sum^{N}_{i=1}(\partial H_ i/\partial q_ j)ds_ i\) (1\(\leq j\leq N)\}\) such that the Hamiltonian functions \(H_ j\) (1\(\leq j\leq N)\) are polynomials in \(q_ 1,...,q_ N\), \(p_ 1,...,p_ N\) with coefficients rational in \(s_ 1,s_ 2,...,s_ N\).
