It is their intention to incorporate and to operate the mill. and it is stat ed that their business prospects are SC good that the mill will be run on 24- hour time, in shifts of II and Is hours which will double the number of em- ployes. This will mean that the ordi- nary force of from 40 to 50 men will be increased to about 100.
 AS far as buildings and equipment is concerned, it Is stated. the Hubbard mill is in such excellent shape that nothing will need to be done in the way of new buildings or repairs or new machinery.
 l. will be a source of qualification tC the citizens of Norwich that the mill is not to be closed but is to continue a s one of the valued industries of the city, a position that it has held foI many years. Since 1860 this paper mill business has been operating in its present location, having previously been at the Falls. The main mil building is a three-story brick struc- ture, 75X250 feet, and the other build ings are of brick. The new owners have bought all of the mill property except one dwelling house connected With it.

COUNTY CAUCUS PROBABLE
 NEXT WEEK WEDNESDAY. Smith and Brown Reported Likely to Be Re-eleeted County Commission
(special to The Bulletin.)


 Hartford, Jan. 27-It is quite prob able that the republican members of New London county will hold caucus next Wednesday for the nomination of county commissioners, and. unless the number of candidates from the Nor Norwich and New London districts, so- called, combine on that one candidate, the indications are that Commission CTS Smith and Brown will be re- elected. Norwich will thus continue to be without representation on the board, and the Shoestring district will still have two of the three members Lanphere and Smith.
 The majority of members from the Shoestring district seem to favor the reelection of Brown, and thus retain control of the board, and also are fla Vorable to the retention of Smith. in order to strengthen that position. Rep resentative Davis of East Lyme de- clared that while Danphere, the demo- cratic commission, is a resident of the Shoestring district, he is not consid- cred as much of a republican political asset, and with Brown removed the district would practically be outside the political breastWOrkS. Therefore when the Shoestringers are debating the county commissioners question Lanphere is not taken into considera- tion at all.
 MT. Davis stated in positive terms that at the caucus next Wednesday both Smith and Brown would be nom = mated and elected by the general as sembly as soon thereafter as possible.
 An oId-line politician said that while Mir Davis was a nice young man. he Is not seasoned in the political game and will be proven failure as a political prognosticator Just wait and see. Yes. just wait and see" said MT. Davis

PRESIDENTS SUGGESTIONS
 WERE oVERRULED
At Connecticut Humane sooiety's AP-
 nuai Meeting.

An attempt on the part of the Rev. William DeEoss Love, president of the Connecticut Humane society, to centralize still further the power of the society's administration in the hands of the president and the seven corporate members, was overruled at the annual meeting of the society on Wednesday, at Hartford in the Pros pect street offices. A new constitution, providing for the handing over of the power of the board of directors into the hands of the smaller body was up for consideration, and was voted down.
 Practically the only one of the pres ident's former powers remaining in tact is that of calling meetings of the board of directors, which board, for tn first time in many years, now con- tains representatives of all the coun- ties of Connecticut
