The new electric railway at Benning
ton, it is believed by the engineer in
charge of construction, will be in opera
ton by June /. The rails are all laid
with the exception of I 400 feet through
the clay cut at Pownal Center There is
yet large amount of ballasting to be
done but work of this kind will have to
be continued some time after the road is
opened.
The big paper mill at East Rygate Is
shut down indefinitely for repairs on the
machinery, owing to the bursting of the
| big fly wheel of the engine which dam
aged the plant to the extent of $4,000.
In some way the governor of the engine
/ got out of order and the engines speed
increased until the wheel burst. A large
piece of iron weighing over a ton went at
fearful speed clear through the four
inch planking of the second floor of the
mill, out through the mill and landed
near the boarding house several hundred
feet away. No one was hurt but the fly
ing rim of the wheel came quite close to
some of the workmen.
