NEW STATION ASSURED.
For Brattleboro Through Public Service
Commissions Order


Brattleboro, July Yesterday after
noon the public service commission, at
an adjourned hearing, made an order
directing tho Central Vermont railroad
to abolish the grade crossing on Bridge
street, which will necessitate the build
ing Of the new passenger station as con-
templated BY the railroad officials and
agreed upon by the town committee and
the railroad management, after confer
enees extending over period Of over
q year. While the matter had been
practically settled between the town Of
Rrattleboro and the railroad, the action
Of the public service commission makes
the abolition Of the grade crossing sure,
al the formal order which will be issued
within a few days, will direct that work
begin forthwith and that the changes
be completed not later than November
a, 1911.
The Central Vermont railroad was
represented at the hearing by General
Manager G. G. Jones, General Counsel
C w. Writers and Chief Engineer Nor
rison. Clarke G. Fits and A. r. Car
penter appeared as counsel for the se-
leetmen and town committee.
The attorney Of the Boston s. Maine
urged that the matter Of abolishiug the
Bridge street crossing be delayed for 30
days or more. 1t il said that the Boston
& Maine management fears that the
people Of Brattleboro will demand that
the public service commission order
them to use the new passenger station
to be built by the Central Vermont.
Such an order would naturally cause the
Boston s Maine some delay in handling
its through traffic when it builds its road
from Brattleboro TO Hinsdale, as It
would be obliged to back its trains over
IA half a mile to this station.
