NO TRAIN IMPROVEMENTS.
Railroad Men Cannot Promise the
 Borough Any Better Service.

No promises whatever as to restora- tion of trains and no changes any way before June l, is an epitome of what the committee of the Danielson Bus mess Mems association. gathered from their conference here Tuesday after noon with General Manager C. L. BardO and General Passenger Agent A. B. Smith of the New Haven road.
 The railroad men arrived here on a special train shortly after l o'clock and met Nathan D. Prince, A. L. Reed, 4. p Woodward, Frank T. Preston B. c. Hopkins and Senator E. H. Reach representing the business mems or ganization
 The conference was not fruitful Of results or promises for restoration of train service to- Danielson, but the Danietson men said that they felt that Messrs Bardo and Smith had been very cOnsiderate. in giving their time and going over the situa ton with them. The local men felt convinced that the railroad men had been very frank with them and they were i'm pressed with the figures shown them as to the earnings, or rather losses. of passenger trains operating over this branch.
 One of the local men quoted the railroad men as saying that not one of the passenger trains operated over the local branch is showing a profit.
 While no promises were made for helping Danielson out of a bad posi- ton as to steam road passenger ser vice, the local men hope that some improvement may be granted in the early summer, but until then there is nothing to be looked for

ROAD DOING ITS BEST.
Officials Cannot Promise Restoration Of Trains Recently AnnuIled on Nor Yich Branch.

After interviews with business men in Norwich and DanielsOn, General Manager C. l.. Bardo and General Pas senger Agent A. B. Smith of the New Haven road came here on a special train about 3 o'clock Tuesday after noon for an interview with local busi- ness men relative to the recent re- movaI of trains from the Norwich branch.
 While the result of the conference does not insure the restoration of the trains. no promises being made by the railroad men, the railroad officials through their visit brought home to the Putnam men that the road is not in a particularly advantageous posi- tion as to furnishing additional service at the present time. MT. sBardO and MT. Smith made it clear to the local men that the road has the interests of this and other eastern Connecticut communities at heart and is anxious to give them q. satisfactory service.
 They pointed out, however, that the trains that have been removed were trains that were being operated at loss and that the road is not in position to stand such losses at the present time
 The Consideration of the train ser vice was from the sound business prin- oiple of whether trains run could be operated at a profit or at a loss.
 Attorney Ernest C. Morse, L. O. Will Hams, George F. Shaw. Richard Cor man, F. L. Kelley, Judge J. Harry Mann. George s. Bradley, George L. Padgett were among those present in behalf of the business mems aSSOcia- tion Attorney J. F. Carpenter appear ed in the interest of the French River Textile company at Mechanicsville

 Attorney Carpenter presented the case of the French River Textile com pany of MechanicsVille, a concern that is 0 heavy shipper by express. This concern is very much handicapped un- der the present arran cement of run ming trains through the village where it is located. The railroad officials promised to take this matter up and it is probable that some trains not doing so at the present time will be ordered to make stops at. .Mechanicsville.
 Hardship to Dealers.
 George :. Bradley. representing a firm that ships meat south from here to towns on the Norwich branch, ap- peared in behalf of the concern and told of how the change in schedules has disrupted his arrangements for doing business with his customers in towns south of here.

The railroad men promised to take up his case and to endeaVor to make some more favorable arrangement for him.
 Trains Did Not Fay.
 After the interview and discussion the local men were inclined to feel that while the service is not as they would like to have it, that many things on the roads side of the question must be taken into consideration. They have learned that the trains removed do not pay and they learned other interesting things that indicate to them that run ming a railroad under adverse condi- tions is not pastime by any means.
