Vestisat1on or the capitals, expendi- l lures, and investments of the road
 ordered by the last legislature.
 Disposal Of the Rutland RaiIroa q l company stock should be reouired wit three years, the securities of al gas, electric and water companies 1 should be sold within a similar period, arc four small street railway com panleS which the New Haven owns directly in Connecticut should like wise be divorced from the railroad sEstem, according to the commission.
 Five years was set as the time W''h1n which the road should sell it's interest in the Millbrook company, and in it's real estate holdings in ] Park Square, Boston. Eventual dis 1 position of all real estate and other l physical property not owned or used l Tor railroad purposes should be re- l Cuired, in the opinion of the commits sion.
 1 Dissolve Navigation company.
 The report also recommended that l the New England Navigation com fpany be dissolved, and it's assets and 1 liabilities taken over by the New 1 Haven company Dissolution was recommended also for the Subway and Westchester Construction com
 pany, the Roxbury Central Wharf,
 and the South Bay Wharf and Ter minal company The commission held that the New
 Haven could properly retain interest
 in its steamship companies, "prO- yided the consent of the Interstate | Commerce Commission were secured " and favored the retention also of the New Haven's interest in all con- <! trolled railroad companies except the l Rutland including leased lines. The New York, Ontario & Western hold ings, however, it was reported, might well be sold if the transaction could
 be arranged without financial loss to 1 the road.
 Limit Dividend to Five Per Cent. 1 Limitation of the dividends of the 1 New Haven company to not moro than five per cent. was recommended This suggestion was made, it was ex- plained, as @ means of providing against reductions in book values and
 actual losses to be incurred through
 sale of the several properties as or
 dered by the federal dissolution de- cree, and recommended by the Public Service Commission. The commits sion suggested that the five per cent. dividend limitation be made effective until such time as the net amount of such losses had been offset by appro rriatons from earnings or by con- tribution from stockholders
 l 'The company will have the choice O. either making good the waste as
 soon as it can or continuing indefi-
 ritely the limitation upon it's dividend rate,' the report continued.
 The commission said that it had ' ot attempted to investigate such
 r oldings of New Haven as were or dcred sold by the federal court in
 the recent Sherman act proceedings.
 Its aim, according to the report, was
 tc "determine what the Common wealth ought to do with reference to
 various acts of the company not au-
 thorized by this state and to deter
 IT inc how a sound and effective sys-
 tenn of public regulation for the
 fl ture might be best administered"

Berlin News PROMOTERS SCHEME PROVES FEASIBLE Universal Trolley Co. of North
 amptOn to Begin Manufacture FORMERLY LOCATED HERE
Investors Obtain Control of Concern by Legal Proceedings and Will Market Product Soon-Whist Club Mcets-Epworth Lcaguer's Rally.

Several local citizens have received word that the Universal Trolley com- pany of Northampton, Mass, is about to place it's goods on the market. The concern was located in East Berlin nbout four years ago, but at that time Investors in this region felt the whole proposition was simply a promoters scheme. Agents worked in this vii cinity for some time and sold con- siderable stock the buyers assuming the concern would soon start. Time rolled on and the interest of those who had purchased shares waned when they saw the company was mal1- Ing no headway. The man behind the proposition went to the Massachusetts city. When the stockholders in that city thought the proposition was sim ply a promoters scheme, they began legal proceedings, with the result that they controlled the company. Ap- proXimately $20,00 worth of stock was sold in Northampton. The cap- ttal stock of the original company was $300,000, but when it was reorgan- lzed by the Northampton people tt was reduced to S60,000.
 C. r. Starrett of Athol, Mass, presi- dent of the Starrett Tool company was interested in the project, and with his ability as a manufacturer, he has placed the company in a position where the shareholders are about to realize on their investment. The stockholders in Northampton are ju- bilant over the concerns prospects md several would-be investors are un- able to obtain shares. When the re- organization took place the local men who owned stock were invited to pay m assessment to continue the work of the company. but as far as known none availed himself of the oppor- tunity.
 The theory of the wheels as manu- factured seemed very logical to tie toWnspeople approached, and little Nhiculty was experienced in finding ready buyers. The wheel now in use on the trolley cars is simply a bronze wheel Which is discarded when worn out. The Universal wheel is made of ulfterent parts, the center being made of copper with a pushing, and the hange of malleable iron The pushing Is packed with grease and the feature of the article is that when a part wears out it can be replaced without discarding the entire wheel. It Is said that the concern will receive a large order from the Connecticut company in a short time and samples are being made at present.
