COMMITTEE HEARINGS.
| At the hearing before the committee on
cities and boroughs of the petition of the
Morris Cove Electric Road company for an
amendment to its charter authorizing it to
build an extension of its present line and
| to build power house to cost from $50, 900
to $50, 900, Corporation Counsel Driscoll,
on behalf of New Haven, asked for post
| ponemsnt of the hearing on this petition
80 that the New Haven court of common
council and the citizens of New Haven
| could take action On whether to favor the
amendment or oppose it.
! Mayor Sargent vigorously urged g thor
| ough consideration of all those petitions of
electric roads, and the granting of an op-
portunity to the people to bs heard in such
cases. Valuable franchises were asked for
and the matter should have an ample hear,
ing. A sharp tilt between Attor ney Wag.
ner and Mayor Sargent occurred.
Mr.. Gum Of the committee jokingly said
is looked as though the committee was
going to have its hands full with all the
electric road petitions that were on foot.
After discussion the next hearing was
set down for February Is.
The petition Of James NJ Townsend
George Il. Townsend and others for 6
charter for the Lske Saltonstall Electric
road, was considered by the committee
Whether Mr.. Wagner is interested in this
new road does not appear, although hott
he and Mayor Sargent took hand in the
l ipfo oo1 + hat -
The route of this line is from the Foul
Corners in East Haven, through what il
known as Main street, the road to Eas
Haven center, to Lake Ssltonstall. 1t viii
be two aud one quarter to two and one
half miles in length. The capital stock
will be $4,000. Every resident and prop
erty owner, something like $50 in all
along the proposed line favors the road
and have signed petition to that effect
George b. Townsend and others spoke il
favor of the road, developing the idea tina
it would not only be a great accommo
dalton for many people, but would also
very materially aid in booming the prop
erty skirting the line. There WASH i any
body to oppose the petition.
Mayor Sargent, however, interposed tn
objection that this petition should be in
qutred into like all the rest, and hiut ted tina
| the route of the proposed road was over
fine driveway of New Haven. Mr.. George
a. Townsend replied that the road woult
be vast benefit to the property of th'
town. Mr.. Wagner said the Morris Cow
road was being run at an actual expense O.
$50 per day.
"And yet" interrupted Corporation
Counsel Drisooll, you want charters t.
build electric roads,"
eyes, of course we do" rejoined MIR
Wagner, "for we expect in time the roat
will pay u.s."
