that the New Milford Power company did not own any land at the site of the proposed dam at Great Falls. MT Ship man said the Falls Village Water Power company owned no land at the site of the proposed dam. To l.. c.
 Nickerson, MT Staub said the Falls Village company held regular annual meetings in the back room of the bank at Falls Village. He was not certain that the stock had ever been recorded as having been transferred to him. The stock was transferred to the New Milford company on October 25, last. MT Bristol had 1.OOl shares and MT Staub had 3,2O7 ] shares. All of these were transferred to the New Milford company. MT Staub said he had ceased to be-a director of the New Mill ford company about year ago. One of his last official acts was to vote to increase the capital stock to Sf, ,O00, ,000. In regard to his ownership of the bonds of the New Milford Power com pany, MT Staub said he held S115, ,0OO of it's bonds in addition to S2O,O of the stock. Mir Shipman at this point announced that in the progress of the investigation he should object to hay. ing the names of the stockholders of the New Milford Power, company and the amount of shares held by each. The assets of the company would be freely disclosed. To Judge Maltbie, MT Staub said he believed that R. N. King of New York was StOckholdel of the New Milford Power company. He could not say whether or not the company had ever held meeting. He had deeded to the company the land he had purchased.

 canal and powerhouse were being con

The dam was to be 15 feet high and the canal two miles long At the end of the canal was a foreboy and steel pipe would be constructed there to carry the water into the tur pines. Electric generators would bt attached to the turbines. The horse power to be developed would be abou

proximately, had already been expend- ed. Isaac B. Bristol of New Milford said he was president of two banks in New Milford and a stockholder in the Bridgeport Wood Finishing Go. He was of the opinion that a development of the Housatonic river by the New Milford Power company would be a benefit to the people in the Housatonic valley. He was not StOckholder in the company and owned none of it's bonds. Tc MT Nickerson, MT Bristol said he did not remember ever having been director of the New Milford Power company or of having voted to increase it's capital stock. MT Kicker son then read certificate of the in- crease in the capital stock of the New Milford Power company from S1O0,OO to $1, 1000, ,O00, dated February 9, 1902. The certi ifcate was signed by MT Brfs- tol, Nicholas Staub and four others of the directors. and had been filed in the office of the secretary of the state. MT Bristol said it was the first time he had ever heard of the certificate. Charles M.

There was hearing before the com mittee on interpretations at the capi- tol, Friday, on the petition of the New Milford Power company for an amend ment to it's charter to enable it to con- struct additional dams on the Housa- tonic river. A large array of legal tai ent was before the committee and heard on the petition.
 Arthur L. Shipman of Hartford said that the company desired the right tc construct just above Great Falls in Canaan and Salisbury, a three-foot dam with flash boards two feet .in height; at Kent Furnace dam not tC exceed 35 feet in height and at point

three and half miles below GaylOrd'S Bridge, in :New Milford, dam not to exceed 23 feet in height. MT Ship man then said the company was char tered in 1893, the original idea of the incorporatOrs being to use the water near Lovers Leap, in the town of New
 Milford, and to build an lS-foot dam. This dam had not been built. In 1895 the company was given power to con struct dams at Gaylordsville and Bull s falls. These were to be 15 feet in height. Instead of building at both places single dam was in process of construction at Bull's falls and be- tween $2O0,OOO and $500, ,OOO had been expended there.
