SURVEY IN PROGRESS
FOR ANOTHER TROLLEY ROAD

Six Surveyors are Engaged in the
 Work-Nothing Definite in Sight as
 Yet-Canaanites are Waiting for
 Realities-What May Happen
 That there is something beside talk in connection with the project to build an electric railroad from Westied, Mass to Canaan is evidenced by the fact that on Saturday of last week six surveyors in the employ of the N. Y. N. H. & H R. R. arrived in Canaan, engaged board, arranged for horse hire and made other preparations to begin the work of sur veying the proposed route
 Their starting point is the crossing at the upper end of Railroad street, near the residence of Mrs H. E. Pease. They will then move northward through Clayton to Mill River and when they have reached the latter place, instruc- tions will be given them as to what di- rection to pursue. It is understood that they will also survey to Crest Earning ton from Mill River.
 We are informed that at the present time there is only a ten mile gap in trolley communication between Wlnsted and Waterbury. Everyone believes that in the near future the electric road will be extended from Winsted through Nor folk and East Canaan to Canaan. Then with a road from Westfeld the trolley connection with Massachusetts points would be complete.
 More than this, it would be a oompar- atiyely simple matter for the N- r., N. H. 6 H. O. to hook that Falls Village water power onto their lines at Canaan and thus operate a considerable strip of road.
 But the aboveindications probabilities possibilities and activities promise nothing. The survey does not neoes- sarily mean that a road is to be inn mediately constructed and the Falls Village power may be intended for other purposes The fact of the matter IS that there is no one except the N- Y. Ns Fl. 6 H company who knows exactly what s in the wind regarding new cleo tric roads ill this vicinity.

 Now in Dormant State.
 The residents, particularly the busi- ness men of Clayton, Mill River and other villages in that vicinity are much interested in the proposed electric road from Westfield, Mass, to Canaan, Ct., They prefer this route to one which would take the road to Great Harrington for the reason that if it ran to Great Bar rington, they would be no nearer 8 rail road than they are now. There is ex- cel1ent water power in the Mill River vicinity, power that would be used to turn the wheels of industry were 1t not for the fact that the expense for carting the products to the nearest shipping point would be considerable. People in that section believe an electric road would be great factor ill developing the conntry and make of it a desirable place for both residences and manufacturies.
