inch-State Chemists Report Not
Received.

There was a meeting of the board
of water commissioners on Wednes-
day afternoon, at which a report of
the successful test of the pumps and
motors at the pumping station at
Trading Cove brook was presented by
Engineers Chandler & Palmer There
was a discussion of the present sup
ply and of the matter of a permanent
supply, but no action of any kind was
taken, three of the board members be-
ing present. The pumping station and
the general conditions existing in the
water situation were reviewed.
There was no report received from
state Chemist Newlands in regard to
the Trading Cove brook watershed,
and the samples of water from the
brook but one is expected before the
weeks end. When he was here he
stated that there was much business
before him from other sources. and he
was unable to say just when he would
be able to make his report, although
it was expected here Wednesday.
The third pump for the pumping
station was taken to the brookside on
Wednesday, six horses being used to
get it out there. 1t was put into the
building and work started on setting
it up. AS soon as it Is ready. the first
pump will be taken down and the two
direct connected pumps and motors
will be retained. The first pump,
which is separate from the motor, was
loaned in order to get it here quick.
The water in Fariview reservoir,
when measured on Wednesday showed
gain of one inch over Tuesday and
low highwater mark. There was a
slight rainfall Wednesday night and
the general moderate weather will
serve to help further.

RAILROAD SURVEYORS
WORK BY NIGHT.
Dozen Struck Groton Saturday and
Worked Until Sunday Morning.

A party of a dozen or more survey
ors were in Groton Saturday night and
they labored till Sunday morning after
daylight. They came on the last boat
Saturday night and proceeded to get
busy at the railway station and on land
adjacent thereto. What their purpose
was in working at night is not known,
but it can be imagined it was not that
the work could be more easily accom-
plished in darkness than in daylight.
The land is now staked out, it is sup
posed, for changes that are to be made
when the new. bridge is placed across
the Thames.
Whether the survey would. if it was
known, disclose whether the railroad
is to come around the city of New
London and whether the tracks in that
city are to go underground or whether
they will be elevated above the existing
tracks is a puzzle. The railroad people
are not disposed to disclose these facts
until the railroad company has it's
plans where they can be given to the
public without detriment to the rail-
road company.
1t is said that there is something
doing and that what it is will be made
known very soon now, as the railroad
cannot defer letting the facts out much
longer.
It is understood that the railroad
company wants land that it does not
yet own in the vicinity where the
tracks are to pass.

VERDICT FOR LOCAL FIRM
UPHELD BY COURT OF APPEALS.
Against the Central Vermont Rail-
way Company.

On Wednesday morning word was
received by Attorneys Comstoek and
Robbins from the clerk of the United
States court of appeals in New York
city that the court had affirmed the
judgment of the United States circuit
court of the district of Connecticut
The judgment was for the plaintiffs
ito recover $31,866.22 in the case of
Robbins & Patison VS.. the Central
Vermont Railway company. The rail-
way company took an appeal on which
they lost. In this state the case was
heard in New Haven, while the appeal
was argued in New York.
The firm of Ri'bbins & Pattison was
engag ed in the ice business and had
several large houses at Wilmington.
These were destroyed by fire, and the
railway company was sued, as it was
claimed the fire was started by a spark
from a passing engine. Judgment for
the full amount of the claim was rem
dered. The case has attracted much
attention during it's time in court. The
fire occurred five years ago.
