TROLLEY MATTERS.
Many Waterbury People Before the
 Commissioners Saturday.

The hearing at Hartford before the railroad commissioners Saturday on the appeal of the trolley company from the conditions imposed for the laying of tracks on Robbins street, | was quite lively. It was held before Commissioners Fowler, Gates and Seymour The trolley company of- fered either of the following proposi- tions as settlement of the differ ence:
 First, that the company make a seven foot cut on Grand View street, where it crosses Robbins street, to overcome the rise in the ground at that point.
 Second, that the company should lay tracks at the existing grade of Robbins street, with the promise that in case the city should in the future decide to make Improvements on the street, the company would take up it's tracks and bear its proportionate expense of the changes.
 Mayor Thoms drought the second proposition might be considered, but he was of the opinion that the other would meet with general opposition.
 Attorney Lynch made a strong plea for trolley service on Town Plot and almost everybody present agreed the district needed the ser vice.
 Several of the members of the Brooklyn Improvement committee said this morning that the hearing at Hartford was favorable to the Brooklyn people and they expected some good results to come from it. It brought out the fact that although the trolley company has been declar- ing that anything greater than 10 per cent grade was too much for them to overcome, still it is now will ing to go up Robbins street at a 12 per cent grade.
 After the hearing on Saturday A. w. Paige called few of the Brook lyn people together and tried to make a proposition to them. MT Paige said that the company has paid $I,800 for Quassapaug, has spent $2,500 on improvements there, and will have to spend almost as much as $20,00O on land damages. He gave his promise that if the Brooklyn people would not oppose these new conditions that before July 1, 1907, a line would be running to Town Plot. But the Brooklyn people said that they had too many promises al- ready.
 MT Paige asserted that it is i'm possible for the company to build the line this summer, but Mayor Thoms is in hopes that the line in Brooklyn will be built before year masses
