Meeting of the stockholders YesterdRy-
 EIset1on of Directors-ShaH the City
 Cancel the Roads Indebtedness
 The shareholders of the little Derby met yesterday in this city for their annual cleo tion. The only change in the new board of directors is the substitution of John P. Tut tie for Henry G. Lewis, who this year repro . Gents the city. The annual report was read as printed in the papers. Mayor Lewis said that the road was indebted to the city to the amount of $21O, 395 p and the city to the road SIG, GOO. The city has paid the interest on the roads bonds for several years, This was begun when the road was in a struggling condition and needed help in order to put the road in good condition. Now there should be some adjustment of the accounts.
 President Bartholomew thought that Treasurer Atwater and Charles Shelton could make an equitable adjustment of the affairs.
 Thomas R. Trowbridge asked what steps were once taken to release the Air Line bonds. Mayor Lewis answered that the town gave as much as the road.
 On motion of Charles B. English, the president, secretary and treasurer were ap- pointed committee to make some adjust ment of the citys affairs with the road. The committee were empowered to add to their number if they think best
 There was some discussion about the in completeness of the published report. MT. Trowbridge thought that the city had gained enough from the road to justify it in cancelling the roads indebtedness. N. D.. Sperry was of the same opinion. Charles l.. English said that when some years ago he in compliance with the request of Mayor Lewis, had put g., 900 in this Der by road, he never expected to get any of it back. He gave tho money out of patriotic and enlarged business views, not with the idea Of ever receiving dividend. So did all of the sensible men who invested in Derby stock. He thought that the city should be willing to cancel the debt or at least come to an understanding with the other stockholders as to how much of the burden of debt they were willing to abate.
 Mir. Trowbridge suggested that N. D.Sper- " should write up this matter and make the public familiar with the justice of the roads claim.
 The directors of the road are: Mayor Lew is, John P. Futile, New Haven; J. H. Bar tholomew Ansonia; Herrick P. Frost, New Haven; Thomas Wallace, Ansonia; Isaac An derson, New Haven; R. NJ. Bassett, Birming- ham; F. Farrell. Ansonia; Charles l.. Eng fish, New Haven; William D. Downes, Bir- mingham; N. D. Sperry, New Haven; J. A. Sperry, New Haven; M. F. Tyler, New Ha- ven; Charles Atwater, New Haven.
 It was not decided when the directors would meet to elect officers.

The Ala Society.

On the approach of the winter the mana. gers of the Aid society appeal once more to the citizens of New Haven for their contri- buttons. For many years the society has un- deftMken' by it's visitors to investigate the con- dition of those who need help in the city and to supply the worthy poor at their homes with such articles as they require. There seems a prospect that during the approach ing winter there may be an unusual number of persons out of work, and in view of thi probability the officers of the society are oi the opinion that larger sum will be needed in their work than has usually been contrib
 uted to their treasury. They have requested MT. George Sherman to call on our citizens for their contributions, and it is hoped tha these will bs so liberal that all proper re quests for aid can be attended to.
