The story does not hear the semblance OF

NEW ENGLAND ROAD NOTES.

Will Be Double Tracked Immediately
From New Britain to Hawleyville.
In regard to the New England road
meeting Director Macauley says: "The
vote to-day was the largest ever cast
at any annual meeting. Of course, we
cannot tell the amount of bonds we
will issue. For instance, in Cennecti-
cut you cannot, under the law, issue
more than fifty per cent of the cost of
the road, and we must first show the
cost of our property. We shall double
track from HawleJ vile to New Britain
Immediately. We need more rolling
stock and to-day shall order ten en-
gines. The largest stockholder is Mr.
Bostwick, who holds IS 900 shares. Mr.
Starbuck has 5000 shares. of which
5000 are in his name; Mr. Parsons has
10, 900 shares and will buy more. Cor
bin had 5000 shares in his name and
claimed 5000, but he was sold out. We
have pretty good list of stockholders
to back us up. William Waldorf Aston
sent us his proxy upon his $500 shares
from London"
New England was the heaviest loser
on stock exchange yesterday. The
stock IS in bad repute. Half the street
feel that it has been, badly blistered on
the recent deal, and that somebody
worked the largest-sized "fake" on
record. The ousting of Austin Corbin
is not regarded as a brilliant move,
the stock of New England declining
during the day from 494 to 46A. The
developments at the meeting Yesterday
were not enough to start up any fresh
enthusiasm in the stock,

Miss Akerstrom's return to this city

picturesque, piquant, pathetic and pleas
ing, musical, mirthsome and meritorious,
combination of sentiment, song and
sense, a story of sorrow and sunshine.
In fact, it is a play embracing every ele-

talented little actress. She will begin a
