cause all the other followings are
against his. He it is who must make

price. and when they sell dearly to
MIN they profit by the high price.

 Wallingford, March 23.- The fact that Wallingford has no telegraph communication with the outlying cit ies between the hours of n. m. and a, m. was thrown into the limelight this evening when the S:30 Boston ex- press broke down At the local station. The train came into the depot three minutes late and was unable to start out again owing to the fact that the brakes were set and could not be re- leased The conductor rushed into the station to send a message to Hartford for 3, new engine and found that the wires were closed and no operator there. The telephone in the office cannot be used for calls out side the town and therefore was of no use. It was decided to try and run to Meriden with the brakes set and there get new engine. After half an hour the engineer succeeded in getting the train. which was a heavy one, started. The conditions here and all along the road are bad. If there had been serious wreck instead of a disabled engine there would have been no way to get assistance. If the trains are late in the evening there is no way of knowing ii. Ever since the depot was erected there has been an operator on duty day and night and the present conditions which have existed for the past tvo weeks are causing a great many protests from the towns people.
