railroad switching rates, who regu.

such discussions occupied about three

absolute control over all switching
rates in the state. This was brought
ABOUT by an amendment offered to
one of the sections providing that the
city fix the rates, il it had the power
to do so. Then it was argued that
the rates We're fixed by the railroad
commission and that it would be use
less to insert such an amendment.
Finally, however, an. amendment was
added, providing that they city could
control the rates in the event that the
rules of the city did not conflict with
those of the railroad commission. The
ordinance was then adopted in full.
It gives to the A.. B. & A. the right
to extend a sidetrack from Cochran
avenue out M street to- the plant al
the Southeastern Yaryan Naval Stores
company. Work on the new track will
pegln at once and will cost the rail-
road in the neighborhood of $4,000.

STRUCK BY AUTO.
Miss Nettie Ball Lies in Water
bury Hospital with Fracture
of Skull


Miss Nettie Ball, twenty seven years,
of West Haven, lies at the Waterbury
hospital in a critical condition with a
fractured skull, broken left wrist and
possible internal injuries as the result of
being struck by an automobile a short
distance below Thomaston late Sunday
afternoon.
Miss Ball. with her brother, Bennett
J. Ball of this city was waiting for
trolley car to return to Waterbury after
spending the day in Thomaston. She
had just stepped out into the street to
signal the motorman to stop when in at
tempting to dodge an automobile, which
came up behind her, she stepped directly
in the path of another machine going in
the same direction. Miss Ball was.
struck by the front Of the machine and
thrown heavily to the ground.
Her dress was partly torn from her
and when her brother reached her side
blood was flowing from her mouth, nose
and ears and her face was covered with
dirt and badly bruised. Mr. Ball picked
his sister up and carried her to the resi-
dence of DR.. II. S. Warner, which was
nearby. DR.. Warner, after hasty eX
animation of the young woman, saw
that she was badly injured and called up
the Waterbury hospital on the telephone.
Miss Ball was placed in the ambulance
and with DIR. r. S. Goodwin of Thomas
Ton to attend her, she was then speedily
taken to the hospital, where it was
found that in addition to bad fracture
at the base of the skull, her left wrist
was broken and she was suffering from
possible internal injuries.
The man who was driving the automo-
mobile which struck Miss Ball gave his
name to Dr. Warner as John Sullivan
and said that he lived in Winsted. but
in the excitement of the moment nobody
thought to get the number of the auto,
although it is possible that Mr. Ball
secured it, but as he went to West Haven
soon after the accident, it could not be-
learned from him what the number was.
No such name appears in the Auto reg
lister. 1t is possible that the car be-
/ longed to someone eles and that the
drivers name was Sullivan or it may be
that he gave fictitious name Water
bury Republican.

and grabbed at the wheels and side of
the car in an endeavor to stop it, but
their efforts were Intellectual. The
automobile ran on and up over the curb,
crashing in through the crowd, and
bringing up against the window of a
jewellery store. AS broken glass
showered over the hood of the machine
the gay roisterer in evening clothes
leaped out of the car and disappeared.
People were sprawilng over each
other on the sidewalk and hundreds of
others had fled for safety into neighbor-
ing doors. The traffic men had diff
ficult time to restore order out of the
chaos. DR.. Victor arrived from New
York hospital with an ambulance to at
tend to Miss Derby's bruises, but the
surgeon found additional work to do,
for seven others had minor injuries.
