New Haven Gets
 Rhode Island Line
Acquires by Long Leases, Providence and Danielson and Sea View Street Rail- way Properties.

New Haven, May 3l-The New York New Haven & Hartford Railroad Company, through its controlled Rhode Island Company, has obtained through long leases, the Providence and Dan ielson and the Sea View Street rail- way properties in Rhode Island. This was officially announced here Monday afternoon
 The lease Of the Providence and Danielson runs for 999 years. begin ming June 30. 1911, the lessee company paying 1 per cent. upon the stock, in- terest upon the bonds, taxes and all other fixed charges. Thirty thousand dollars is to be paid immediately to the Providence & Danielson as interest on defaulted bonds for the past year. Very liberal provision is made in the lease for any plans of future financing for purposes of extension and inn provements which the lessee corpora tion may desire. The lease is to ter minate in case of default by the lessee company for six months on the inter est or rental.
 The lease of the Sea View is in al- most precisely similar terms as those of the Providence and Danielson eX- cept as to the amount and rate of rental. These provide that 1 per cent. upon the stock be paid June 30, 1912 and 1913, per cent. at the same date In the years 1914, 1915 and 1916, per cent. upon the same date in 1917, 1918 and 1919. 4 per cent. upon the same date in 1920 and 1921, and per cent. in 1922 and after years. Thirty thou sand dollars per year is to be paid as interest on s600,000 of the Sea Views s bonds. According to the last official report for 1910 the Sea View had $700,- 900 of capital stock paid in, a funded debt of $55s.0oo, a floating debt of s49.- S62 and total gross receipts from oper- ation in 1910 of s95,52s, with net earn lnGs over operation and taxes of s35,- 958. The line is somewhat more than twenty miles long, running from just outside of East Greenwich to Narra- gansett Pier and Peacedale.
 The Providence and Danielson has common stock of s1,000, 900; funded debt of $600,000. a floting debt of s13,572. and total receipts in 1910 of s1o2, ,S6O. Island and five in Connecticut, run- ming from Market Square, Providence, to East Killingly. Conn.,, where it connects with a line of the Connecti- cut Company running to Danielson, Conn. The construction account of the company is s1,066,776.
 As interpreted in railroad circles here, the acquisition of these lines is regarded as part of the policy of the New Haven company as bearing on the future plans of the Grand Trunk Railway Company of Conada for ex- tension to the seaboard at Providence from Palmer, Mass. It Is said, how ever, that both street railway prop critics have in the past, been offered to the Grand Trunk and have been refused.
 With this addition of about fifty two miles of street railway to the street railway lines already owned or controlled by the New Haven com pany the total mileage of its street railway single trackage in Connec- ticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island is nearly 1 400 miles

NO EFFECT ON GRAND
 TRUNK PLANS Providence, R. l., May 31-The leases will have no effect on the entry of the Grand Trunk into Providence, de- clared D. F. Sherman, president of both the Providence & Danielson, and the Sea View railroad tonight. It was the original intention of the Grand Trunk to enter Rhode Island by way of Willimantic, Conn.,, and it had an option on the Danielson line, but the Legislature, in granting the new Southern New England railroad char ter, made it practically impossible for the roads to connect.
 Another clause in the charter for the purpose of preventing the New Haven road from obtaining control of the Southern New England. also pro- hibits any one connected with another agement of the new railroad. This clause making it practically impossible for the Danielson road to combine with the Grand Trunk, President Sher- man looked to the New Haven to take over his railroads.
 we have leased the roads to the New Haven, or the Rhode Island Conn., pany," he said, because we could not get more money than We could make independently
 The Providence & Danielson road is about ten years old and the Sea View railroad is two years older. Neither the Sea View nor the Danielson line competed to any great extent with the Rhode Island Company or the New Haven road.
 The leases were signed by President Sherman here this afternon after the directors of each road had authorized him to eliminate the transaction. The directors of the two roads will meet on June 29 to ratify the leases.

DANTEs INFERNO.

History does 0 record a sweeter
love than that which inspired the i'm
mortal Tuscan poet Dante in his af-
lection for Beatrice. A thousand
pictures have made the scene de-
pieting the platonic and spiritual re-
lations of these two lovers familiar
70 almost everyone. AS a result of
his profound love and worship of
Beatrice. as a type of pure and sub
lime womanhood, Dante has given 10
the world one of the greatest monu-
ments in the worlds literature, the
Divine Comedy. The best known
part of this immortal work is the In
forno' or Hell. which by reason Of its
graphic description and compelling
power early caught the admiration Of
the people. and was most easily I'M
derstood.
In order 10 make the beauties and
charms of this deathless creation in
telligible to the great masses, a com
pany of famous Italian artists have
rendered the entire poem into moving
pictures. These pictures will be
shown at the Bio Theater Tuesday.
Wednesday and Thursday of this
week. II would be impossible with
in the narrow limits of a newspaper
paragraph 10 convey even a small
idea Of the magnifcanee of this pro-
duetion.
Neither pains nor time nor money
have been spared TO produce a work
which is worthy even of the genius Of
Dante.
