 freight depot from the New York, New
 Haven and Hartford Railroad con-
 pany, conditional that the three wood
 en buildings be moved from the prem

 MT. Egglestone permission to move
 the buildings under the usual condi-
 tions that the town will be held
 bIaIneless from any damages that
 may result by reason Of a moving of
 the buildings through the public high
 ways, ana will in no way be respon-
 sible- MT. Ecclestone assuming all
 responsibility. It is therefore up to
 MT. Ecclestone to arrange for the tem-
 porary removal of telephone, tele-
 graph electric and fire alarm wires,
 which, he informed the council could
 be affected by a financial agreement with the telephone telegraph and eIec- tr1c companies. He informed the council that in moving the Goldberg house, socalled. through Main street, he had made satisfactory settlement, excepting the Westerly Automatic Telephone company, and that the bill presented by the company was ex- cessive, and included the erection of section of pole line and equipment with which he had nothing to do. He declared that he did not consider the bill. as presented, a just bill and there fore did not intend te soelttTHTH fore did not intend to settle on that basis.
 This would indicate that the friend
 Hest of feeling does not exist between MT Blackstone and the telephone company and it would occasion but lit tie surprise if the company attempt ed to prevent or delay the removal of the buildings, by a refusal to re- move wires temporarily. It is under stood that if the town authorities in siSt that the wires be removed that the cable will be GU and in conse- quence many within the affected tele- phone district will be inconvenienced will be collected. MT. Ecclestone is a building contractor and has re- moved many buildings in Westerly an vicinity, under his personal direc- ton, and is considered an expert in the business. He is, however, ne- gotiating with the F. H. Redden Con- structin company of New London to rmove the railroad buildings to MT. Eeclestone's property.
