Railroad Commissioners Repor t.


 The railroad commissioners report of the fall examination of the P. R. & N. E. and of the Housatonic railroads has been made public. In regard to the P. R. & N. E. road the commissioners say that, when tho examination was made on the 18th of September. it was appar- ent that the track and bridges had not received proper attention during the past season. That the defective condi- ton of the track is most noticeable be- tween Hartford and Simsbury and in the vicinity of Lakeville. That the trestles at Simsbury, Tariffville and Twin Lakes require immediate atten- tion- The Cherry Brook trestle has been renewed. The report also says: 'sIn consequence of the neglect of the past season it is in our judgement abso- lutely necessary that large amount of work shall be done this fall in removing unsound ties from the track and bridges and in putting the track in proper line and surface to make it safe for the win ter's traffic
 The condition of the Housatonic rail road is highly commended, also the New Haven & Derby division.
