NEW HAVEN GETS JOY LINE.
Million Dollar Deal Gives Mellen Road Al
most Complete Control of Sound Routes.

Bridgeport, Conn, Dec. 1.-THE filing OF doc
uments in the custom house here to-day made
public the fact that the Joy Steamship Com
pany has formally passed to the control of the
United States Transportation Company, which
is incorporated in this state. and which it Is
understood is owned by the New York. New
Haven & Hartford Railroad Company. The
transaction is thought to involve about a million
dollars. The change of ownership, 1t is further
understood, dates back many months. The line
now goes into the United States Transportation
Company which holds the Sound lines OF the
New Haven company not merged into the Con-
solidated Railway Company. which in turn lost
its identity in the New Haven company last
summer.
The steamers bought the Tennessee the
Kentucky, the Fairfield, the Edgemont, the City
of Kew West and the Seaboard, and in addition
the steamer Kennebec Is purchased from the
receiver of the Enterprise Line for $4,000 cash
and a mortgage OF $4,000 Bridgeport will be
the home port. The New Haven company now
controls practically all the Sound lines
