A carload of the machinery was re-
ceived here on Thursday and part OF
it taken to the factory. The concern
has been located in Syracuse, but
through the influence of Jacob Cor
don it was decided to locate in Nor

Opposition Disappeared.

In the state legislature on Thurs
day the bill of the Uncas Power COM
pany went through flying. 1t passed
in the house practically unanimously,
there being but six dissenting votes,
while in the senate everything was
unanimous. In the house, Represen-
tative Dunn of Willimantic spoke
against it, but there was complete
flop by the members as soon as they
fully understood the matter.
1t gives the company the right to
carry it's line through the towns of
Windham and Scotland, and also gives
the right of eminent domain to take
any property for the construction or
operation of their plant, adjoining their
property. This gives them the oppor-
tunity to get the Cuddy land, which is
desired by them, and which has given
the company much trouble since the
building of the dam was started.
