THE GRAND TRUNK RuMoR
Not Likely to MateriaIize Without a
 Long Fight.

There has been a deal of newspaper talk during the last few days relative
 to the Grand Trunk railway securing
 an option on the Providence & Dam
 lelson line, but, as far as Danielson is concerned. the greatest interest in the prospective change in the control of the road is in the possibility of Dan ielson becoming a railroad function point through the strength of it.
 This prospect is dimmed, too, when the strength of New Haven road in- tereSts in this state are considered as very likely to be opposed to the grant ing of such a franchise as would be necessary to. put Danielson on the railroad map as the crossing point of two competing railway systems.
 To be of any value to the Grand | Trunk as a line from tidewater at Providence to their controlled roads. the Providence & Danielson must be extended through Connecticut from the state line at East Killinglv to a point on the Central Vermont road An application to the legislature of this state for such a franchise as would be required and must be secured before such an extension can be made would undoubtedly meet with strong opposition. As the P. 6 D. is hemmed in today by competing interests both at it's Connecticut and Rhode Island terminals. it is of no value as a feeder to the Grand Trunks lines. Favorable action in the legislatures of two states Is essential to secure for the Grand Trunk a tidewater terminal in Rhode Island and the right to build from the Connecticut state line to some point on the Central Vermont. preferably Willimantic. before the electric line can be made to fully serve the purpose for which if is said to be intended. Ever since the P. & D. was built. the cars have only been permitted to come into Danielson in charge of crews of the Connecticut company or it's predecessors and all the freight that has ever been shipped into this town over the line, has been hauled down from East Killingly by team. The road has been kept muzzled and there is no reason to hope that it's passing into the control of the Grand Trunk will alter conditions in this respect. If the Grand Trunk ever gets franchise to extend the line from Killingly to Windham it will probably be only after the hardest kind of a fight in the legislature of the state. Meanwhile. Danielson people may con- template the advantages that might accrue to this town if the mighty should be beaten and the road built through. The prospect is attractive. but even the most optimistic do not feel that it is yet time to invest in real estate along the right of way. Danielson has had a previous experi- ence in waiting for the building of a Providence to Willimantic line. For twenty years they dreamed of the

TWENTY-oNE SALOONS.
Can Be No New Ones Under the Law

The liquor dealers of this city are filing their applications for renewal of their licenses with the town clerk. There were 21 licenses granted in Putnam last year and all the proprie- tors will likely ask for renewals. There will not, however, be an increase over the present number of saloons.
 A new excise law provides that in any town in which on October 1, 1909, the number of licenses was in excess of the ration of one license to each five hundred inhabitants of the town, renewals may be made to the holders of such licenses, but no new licenses shall be issued until such time as, by reason of failure to renew or revoca- ton of such licenses already grant ed, the total shall be reduced so that the number shall not be in excess of the ratio of one to each 500 inhab- itants. As that ratio is now exceeded in Putnam there will be no new places.
