The current year is half gone and
the situation. in connection with the
live stock and the fresh meat trade Is
a peculiar one. The retailer finds

and at the same time save themselves
from going into bankruptcy.
To understand the present situa-

that statistics for the nrst half ~

cattle during that period i'm those

overlooked is the high prices at

BRICK WORK AT THERMOS PLANT
Four Cars Hand Ready For Walls to Go Up Soon-East Foundation Wall of Concrete is Completed-Force of 100 Men Employed Concrete Mixer and Three Der rcks Rushing the Construction

At the Mason property, on lawer Laurel Hill, work on the main building for the American Fhermos Bottle com pany has been going on for the past five weeks, while on the laboratory building of the Maekay Copper Pro- cess company laberers went to exca- vating this week. These construction activities are by far the greatest that Laurel Hill has ever experienced. and indicate a new era for that section of the city and the east bank of the Thames. The new industry of making vacuum bottles will tend to change that part of Norwich from the quiet section it has been into a thriving manufacturing district, although the new plants are SC situated that they take away little of the residential charm of that part of the city.
 With the advantage of weather that has enabled the work to proceed with out interruption up to the shower of Thursday afternoon, rapid progress has been made upon the concrete founda- tions of the Thermps plant. This is To- cated just south of the old Mason house, which is to be used. at least temporarily, as offices by the company Owing to the damages of intruders the place was in rather bad condition when the contractor began work, but since tsen it has been made quite present able.
 Nearly one hundred men are now al work on the Thermos building under the direction of Foreman Omer Four nier, while there are a score more oi Contractor Torrance's men digging fol the foundations of the Copper Process testing laboratory.
 Boiler House and Factory.
 The concrete footing for the boiler house of the Thermos companys plant which is to be 27 by 55 and is located at the south end of the main building on the river side, Is in, and the stont work is now being put in. On the bis factory building, which is to be 31' feet long by 192 feet inches wide thu | east wall of concrete is complete ant ready for the patchwork to be begun on 1t.

BUSINESS MEMS OUTING.
Good Progress Made in Plans for
 Gathering at Kitsmaue.

The officers and some members of the Norwich Business Mems associa- ton held a meeting on Friday evening in the Board of Trade rooms at which they decided upon further arrange ments for the county outing at Kite maug on July 23. when the Norwich, New London, Wiliimantic and Putnam associations will come together for a social afternoon, intermixed with con- siderable of practical value to the business interests of this section.
 Good progress in the arrangements was reported. Willimantic has been heard from, heartily joining in the plan and the cooperation of Putnam is confidently expected. Around the state the plan of the outing has attracted considerable favorable comment. The tickets are now in the hands of about a dozen or more of the Norwich mem bers for providing the financial sinews and as the outing is not to be confined only to members of the associations, but to any business friends, it is an ticipated that there will be no lack of numbers at the outing
Norwich bulletin., 1912-07-13

the bricklayers win consequently be able to begin their part of the work shortly. A number of carpenters are on the job framing up the inches by IS inches double beams, 20 feet long, that will form the floor supports rest ing on massive concrete piers sunk into the ground. The pier work is being pushed along rapidly, a concrete mixer and three derricks being busy there constantly. There has been quite bit of excavating to do. as the building Is to be three stories on teh river side and two on the other, but this is being rapidly accomplished by the derricks and eight or ten teams.
 On the whole, excellent progress has been made on the work, and it will not be long before the foundations will be complete and the superstructure will be going up.
 At the Copper Process Building.
 At the Mackay building, which is sit uated few rods north of the Mason building and the Thermos plant, the progress made is not so apparent, as work was not started until this week Still the batterbobards have been put up and good start has been made ir excavating for the cellar for the wooG anu DidHAtI buAiglHSs ON bs " ANNA which is to be bnilt here to house the electrical equipment for separating pure copper from It's ore

sHETUckET STREET EXTENSION,
Connecticut Company Will Begin Lay
 ing Trolley Tracks on Monday.

Superintendent Samuel Anderson of the Connecticut company on Friday gave orders to Roadmaster Thomas Cuinan to start on Monday the exten- sion of the trolley line down She tucket street to & point near the New Haven roads freight house, fer the accommodation of the Trolley Express company's business. Accordingly a gang of men will start on the work on Monday morning and though there may be quite little ledge encountered in the short stretch of road from the Laurel hill bridge down to the freight house, the extension can be completed in two weeks without trouble. it is be- lieved. Though it may not be done now, eventually 1t is planned to coz meet the trolley with the steam road tracks 50 that. if wished. freight cars may be switched onto the trolley lines. Formerly 1t has been possible to do this only at the Taft's station june ton.
 Besides leaving Franklin Square free, the extension will prove more convenient to the business houses of the city who patronize the express.
 The 90pound rails for the extension have been placed along Shetucket street for several weeks.

STATE LAW FOR
 RUNNING BOARD RIDERS
New Haven TroIeymen Believe Statuts Covers Passengers Who Defy Con- ductors' Warnings.


 A campaign is to be started against people who insist on riding on running boards agaInst the orders of trolley conduetors, and 1t Is believed that there now exists an ordinance good enough to cover the ease in point. The police heads and the prosecutors of New Haven and Orange have been asked by the New Haven Trolleymen g union to help the cause and their at tention Is called to state statute.
 statute in Chapter 76 of the pub lie acts of~1905 reads;
 An act concerning trespass upon street railway cars. Be it enacted by the senaet and the house of represent attYes in general assembly convened; :;
 Every person who shall wilfulIy and unlaWfuIly be upon, occupy or attach himself to the fender, bumper, coupler, drawbar, roof or any other part of the car of any electric or street railway company, not intended for passengers, shall be fined not more than S20 or imprisoned not more than 30 days, or both"
 Having dug up this statute for the rrolleymen's union, their attorney has sent letters to the police chief and the prosecuting attorney reading as fol- lows:
 AS counsel TOT the Iroueymen 5 union, l would ask you to kindly as- sist the conductors in endeavoring to | enforce the rule recently made by the | public utilities commission of this state prohibiting passengers from rid ing on the steps or running boards of open cars. This rule which has been made by the public utilities commis- sion is benefcent one for both the i passengers and the conductors, partic- | ulaTly the conductors.
 Under the recent ruling of the pub lie utilities commission the running boards and steps are a part of the street railway car not intended fol passengers, and therefore any person riding on the steps after being ordered to step inside undoubtedly places him.
