QUESTIONS AUTHORITY OF
 LIGHTING COMMISSIONERS They Decide Not to Charge Price Which Former Board Advertised.

Deciding that the cost of production of gas and electricity at the city plant was not sufficiently determined to warrant them in putting into effect a reduction in the price to be charged for either. the new board of gas and electrical commissioners have deter mined not to put Into effect the re- duction which the old board announced at the April meeting of the court of common council
 Since the decision of the new board became known some of the citizens have questioned the right of the board in taking this action, and some have declared that they will be used rather than pay at the old rate for the next three months.
 The point is raised on a provision in the general statutes of Connecticut, revision of 1902, in which it is specified that the price to be charged to per sons or corporations for gas or cleo tricity shall not be changed oItener than once in three months. It is con tended that, having advertised a new rate for this city, as the old board did this rate must remain in opera tion for at least three months, and on that point the claim is made that the new advertised rates must remain in force for trhee months at least.

NEW LINE MAY CONSIDER
 NEW LONDON TERMINAL
Secretary of Business Mems Associa ton Calls Attention of Those Inter. ested to Proposed New Line.

Charles w. Pearson, secretary of the Norwich Business Mems association, has called the attention of the New London officials to a steamship line which is being organized to be operat- ed between Sweden and this country. A promoter for the line is now in this country and has been visiting many of the principal cities and particularly the centers where there are m any Swedish residents for the purpose of creating interest in the line The plan is to put on two 5000 ton steamers in 1915 to run every two weeks, and the following year to add two more to give weekly service They would be 20-knot boats and would operate di- rectly between Gottenberg and some port in this country, which at present looks like Boston. but MT. Pearson be- heves that New London could offer better inducements and by the time the new line starts the harbor changes would be completed. It would be q freight and passenger line and the same promoter has within ten years established lines between Sweden and South Africa and Sweden and Aus tralia which are now running ten steamers.
 The line will have the support of tine government of Sweden and the com pany will be capitalized at 26,000,000 kroner or about One-quarter of that in dollars. This is not the Norwegian line which was spoken of a year or so ago, but New London may be in a position to offer it better inducements than Boston.
