NOTHING DEFINITE YET.
Central Vermont officials Indefinite as
to Local Plans

Though President T. II. Fitzhugh Of the
Central Vermont railroad last week init.
mated that he was ready to proceed with
the building OF an oyerpa,s on Bridge
street in the form of a viaduct. nothing
has been done vet. although the coming
week ought to bring something definite IN
regard to the kind Of overpass which the
road would be willing to use IN eliminating
the grade crossing Saturday the select
men and the committee which has lad

have been opened with the railroad to find

Gotch Defeats Hackenschmidt.

Frank Gotch retained his title Of world
champion wrestler by defeating George
Hackenschmidt, the Russian, at Chicago
Labor day. This was the most absorbing
mat event in recent years, on account OF
the great prominence Of the rivals. They
had met once before, when the decision
went to Gotch, though the match was
unsatisfactory. Hack had thrown every
one else. He was larger that Gotch, but
the event proved that Gotch far surpassed
him in all branches of the game. The
Russian on entering the ring appeared
nervous and tired, having passed a sleep
less night Gotch was smiling and con-
fdent. Gotch forced the work and In
14:1S 1-5 had scored clean fall on re-
verse body hold taken with lightning
quickness. That seemed to unnerve
Hack completely and it was only 5:32 10
when Gotch caught him with his terrible
toe hold and the big Russian begged for
mercy and went fiat on his back. He
claimed his poor showing was due to
wrench of the knee sustained two weeks
ago in training. Before the match he
had said he was in perfect, condition.
The attendance was estimated at 10000,
and the receipts amounted to SS7 O53, of
which Gotch gets s2l 900 and the moving

fair All of the debris and brush have
been removed from the grove at the left
of the main entrance and from the grove

eclipse that of last season. A. b. Clapp,
who is in charge of this feature, had re-
ceived the first of the week assurance from
a larger number of the people than partc-
ipated in the event last year. He expects
that he will have over 100 cars in llne
whiclAswill make a procession nearly two
miles IN length
The success of the automobile parade
last year warrants the prophecy that this
years parade of decorated machines will
be fully as much feature of the tair as
anything on the program. A. B. Clapp
will be in charge of the parade which will
be held Wednesday forenoon, Sept. y. The
same arrangements will prevail as last year
for the formation of the parade. The cars
will assemble on the common and the line
of the procession will be through Main
and Canal streets to the fair grounds where
the track will be circled twice. The fair
will furnish each car with two
banners and as many of the machines will
be decorated as was done last year. A
truck with an inclined platform will lead
the procession and carry the First Regi-
