UNABLE TO REACH AGREEMENT
Waterboard Encounters Trouble in Settling for the
Trading Cove Pipe Line-Pumpins Station in Line
of Brush Fire Contractors Work on Pipeline.

There are three property owners on
the Trading Cove brook line with
whom the board of water commission
ers are unable to reach an agreement
as to a satisfactory price for allowing
the laying of the pipe line across their
land In each case price much in
excess of what the board considers q
fair figure is wanted.
There was conference between
these owners and the board at the
water Office on Monday afternoon, but
no terms could be agreed upon. The
property in question is the Manwar-
ring, Polsky and Pierson, the pipes be-
ing laid underground. and the trenches
filled and leveled off. so that there is
no interference with any use of the
land for the purposes it is regularly
put to. One owner said that there
was some sentiment in the matter
which he considered raised the amount
would be. The conference lasted sew
eral hours, but was without result No
other matters came up for action at
that time before the board.
Contractor Dodd commenced work
on his contract on Monday and has
an auto truck engaged in hauling pipe
for his section of the job. A length of
pipe, "a inches in diaemeter is taken
each trip and one every three quar-
tiers Of an hour is delivered along the
line. They are not easily handled, be-
cause Of their weight.
At the Huntington wharf at Thames
vile, where the pipe is unloaded from
the boats. employees of the water de-
partment are checking off each length
of pipe. its size and to whom it is de-
liversd- The pipe is tested as it leaves
the boat.

MoNrVrLE LOOKING AFTER
FAST AUTO DRIVERS
Roads Have Been Badly Worn and
SPeeders Are Being Watched

Norwich automobilists who were out
for ride along the Norwich to New
London road on Sunday slowed down
when they were travelling the macad-
am through the town of Montville.
They had received quiet tip that the
Montville authorities were to be on
the lookout for machines that were
reckless about their speed limits, and
the chauffeurs and their parties nat
urally were looking to avoid trouble
So far as reported. none ran into the
arms of the law, but it is said that the
necessity for keeping within the reg
ulations is not over. as the Montvil1e
authorities are likely to keep up their
vigilance for some little time yet
The macadam in that section has
been suffering severely from the speed
ers this spring since the top surface
was being blown off at q rapid rate
by every machine that hit up the pace
over this smooth stretch. AS soon as
a. carload Of oil which is now on the
way arrives. the road will be thor
oughly oiled, which will act as a bind
err for the top surface, and this is ex-
pscted now very shortly. The oil will
be put on under state supervision,

At the pumping station Saturday
kept employees working until eleven
o'clock. A fire was started to the
north of the station near the Salem
turnpike and spread through the I'M
derbrush and grass, heading towards
the station. Superintendent Corkery
was notified and went there. Hose
was taken out and left at the station,
there being a hydrant just outside the
building The fire was checked a half
mile from the building. but it was not
until eleven o'clock that this was ac-
complished.

About 2.30 o'clock this morning Po-
liceman Morgan discovered the back
door of the Palace cafe had been forced
and for a time it was thought those
who had forced it were inside, but
this was disproved later. Whether they

or had done their work and gone was
not learned. They had only gotten into
the restaurant, no entrance having
been gained to the saloon.
Policemen Morgan and Vetter were
coming down Franklin street and were
attracted to the cafe by a light burn

light went out. This caused them to
be suspicious and the investigation fol-
lowed. 1t was impossible to tell il any
