BLOCK PAVING FOR TROLLEY TRACK
To be Laid Between Tracks Boswell Avenue Hill at the Park-Cobbe Paving For Hill Above Roath Street. Ledge Hickory Street Halts Track Laying For Present

Further track laying on the exten- sion of the trolley line on Boswell ave- nue was temporarily halted at the be- ginning of this week by the striking of a solid ledge of rock on Boswell avenue at the Dodd's barn corner at Hickory street, where two steam drills have been at work all the week for the blasting to remove the rock in the line of the track Above this point to Pratt street the excavating has all been done So that 1t will be but short piece of work to put in the remaining rails as soon as the rock has been cleared away.
 This is the only bad piece of rock that has been encountered along the line of the new trolley. On the hill at the Boswell avenue park some rock was met. but 1t was blasted out of the way without the use of steam drills.
 At the present time on the hill at the park the Belgian blocks have been de- livered which will be used to pave be- tween the tracks as far up the hill as the crossWalk at Lake street. The blocks were delivered in four freight cars which came in over the New Ha- ven road and were switched on to the trolley tracks at Taftville so that they could be brought down here over the trolley tracks through GreeneviIle and switched on to the Franklin street line

 There was some trouble to get the railroad freight cars to take to the switch from the main line to the Franklin street line. because of the deep f1anges of the freight cars, but by the use of iron plates the freight car wheels were forced into the switch and then the car was pushed up Franklin street by the trolley flat car, which furnished the power.
 On the hill from Roath street up towards the Boswell avenue school a cobble paving will be laid between the trolley tracks.
 Early in the week the section of hassam pavement on Franklin street which had to be torn up to put in the switch for the Boswell avenue line was restored. The hassam company, whose contract provides for a five year guarantee to take care of the hassam pavement, sent a foreman from the New Haven office here, under whose direction the restored section of road was laid. Since then man has been kept stationed at that point to warn teams off so as to give the road the necessary amount of time to harden before it is put into use.

THREE UNDER ARREST FOR
 NORTH MAIN STREET ROW
Michael Smith Had Three Clashes in Top of His Head-Saloon Window Pushed In.

A row at the saloon called The Ad- miral at No 257 North Main street, on Thursday evening, which was contin- ued on the sidewalk after the partici- pants had been put out, led to the ar rest of three men, one with three gash- es in the top of his head, said to have been made either with a bottle, a bill Hard ball or pieces of glass from a win dow that was pushed in.
 Policeman Matthew J. Delaney was the first officer to arrive on the scene, hearing the racket and arriving just after the fighters had been pushed out into the street and were continuing their fight there. He stopped the row and arrested Michael Smith, 24 a Rus sian, whose head was bleeding from three cuts in the top of it. and Joseph Mokofski, 21, also a Russian. On the way to police station the two turned upon the officer, who devoted his atten- tion to landing Smith at police head quarters, which he did while the other man made off. A citizen named Barry assisted the policeman.
 Later Mokofslzi was arrested at a house in Greeneville by Sergeant John H. Kane and Policeman Delaney, and another man named Joseph Dmulsl1i, 23, a Lithuanian. was arrested in Greeneville by Sergeant Allen c. Mat thews.

BRIEGE AT MsST.c
 LIFTED BY BAE4E. Boat Put Bridge oas of Eas.ness-- Road Traffic Completely iatst supt-


 Early Thursday morning the coal barge John Mccarthy broke away from her moorings at the Mystic Wharves and drifting up the river on the in- coming tide lodged herself athwart the west end of tfp Main street draw bridge and with the help of the rising ing tide lifted that end of, the draw while the other end tilted down cor respondingly, to the complete frustra- ton of vehicular traffic
 Automobiles, grocery teams meat ana milk wagons went round by the head of the river instead of crossing over Mai nstreet as usual, while pe- destrians. hesitating ,ventured across the tipsy structure, some of them. and others not caring to chance it, went home again or took to the railroad bridge half mile farther downstream Trolley cars are transferring their passengers; but, wiGh all teh cars of the Groton and Stonington having been soused for the night in the car barn on the west side it was necessary to requiSition portion of the rolling stock of the Norwich and Westerly in order to meet the requirements of trafTc to and from the eastward.
 The explanation of the singular oc- currence seems to be that tn charges S hawsers had been tied too short the night before and when the tide went down, with low water about o'clock in the morning the ropes were too rotten to hold the craft and she went adrift.
 When the tide began to make flood the barge left the power house dock and started upstream. She drifted clean under the west end of the draw. her cabin catching on the understruc- ture of the< bridge and holding her there. When the tide rose higher, it was either a case of sink the barge or lift the bridge. The old bridge couldn't stand the pressure and was lifted. The tug Alert was sent for as soon as the predicament was discover ed by the village early risers.
 In the afternoon ar low water the barge was pulled out from under the bridge and tae draw dropped back, but not quite to it's proper place
 AS the tide began to fall and the barge with it the bridge began to set tie; but the opening and closing ap- paratus had been put out of commis sion and 1t is not improbable that the peculiar accident will neccessitate, what many in town have been hoping for, a new bridge.
 The bridge for many years has been a source of annoyance to traffic on account of the time that it re- quires to open and close 1t by man power. The installation of motor was considered by the town fathers of Stonington and Groton, and the street railway company agreed to stand a third of teh expense; but the experts decided that the installation of an electric or gasoline motor would not be practical, considering. the pres ent inadequate condition of the draw structure and it's approaches.
