NEW ClMPANY ORGANIZED DIRECTORS ELECTED
Waterbnry--Milldale Line Will Reduce Fare and
 Running Time.

The formal organization of the Wa terbury and Mi1tdale Tramway com pany took place yesterday at Water bury in the office of Attorney John H. Cassidy, counsel for the company. The following officers and trustees were elected:

 The company proposes to get busy at once and secure the right ot way over which the road will go. It ls believed by the officers that this VII take only very short time and that the contract for the construction of the road will be let long before fall The charter gives the company the right to build at once from the NH Plain school House to Milldale, with ] d pOSSl DlHty Ol tAtVIuii6 tiiN tNt'N " East Main street in case the Connecti- cut company does not build from East Main street to the Mill Plain school within 30 days after the completion of the tramway company's road.
 The company is capitalized at $1OO,- 900. All of the stock has not yet been subscribed, but there is sufficient for practical working purposes and in a short time the company will offer stock to the public. It Is anticipated that the stock will be taken generally throughout Waterbury and Southing- ting, as the promoters are sanguine that the road will prove paying proposition from the start. It is planned to charge a 15-cent fare to Milldale, a nickel less than it costs to make the trip at present and to shorten the running time by consider ably more than quarter of an hour. The distance by way of the new road will be five miles less than the route via Cheshire and the officers of the company believe that the increasing number of people who go to Hartford, Meriden and other points on the troll ley will be glad to take this more di- rect route.
