We are ctedibly informed, rays the
Burlington Free Press, tina. tic Central
Vermont are N no way responsible for the
many tedious delays of trains, thus far,
this winter. We are are assured that their
trains over tue lines leading from New
York city have not lost five minutes in
running time after reaching the STAG line ;
that the delays are often caused by the
New York trains waiting at Troy, for
trains from the west IN route for Boston
by way of tie Iioossc tunnel which has
been a source Of annoyance NOT only to the
Company but to all their patrons and hat
on Monday a new arrangement will
be Effected, which ~ill materially do away
with the trouble.
