GIN WORK SOON ON BIG DAM.

After making preparations for more
than 30 years, the Housatonic Power
Company. of New Haven, which is said
to have the backing of both the New
Haven and the Pennsylvania railroads
will soon start work on It 100 foot high
dam to span the Housatonic river about
one half mile below Zoar's bridge.
The pent up water in back of the pro-
posed dam will cover an area of 81
square miles, and will wipe out scores
of churches, cemeteries, homes, roads.
and summer camps. When completed
the dam will furnish power for the
building company.
A charter was granted the Housa-
tonic Power Company at the last ses.

magnitude of the undertaking was not
revealed at that time.
The dam will be erected on natural
rock base recently located by the

The erection of the dam will also
mean the construction of new road

There is road now on the east bank of
the river, winding with it. This is

Entente Council is Held at
Rome; Central Powers Meet
in Field Camp of Kaiser; Re-
fuse to Reveal Motive.
ALLIES AFTER GREATER UNITY
Would Draw Closer Together in Their
Efforts OF Wag1ng War; Forecasts
Made Of a More vigorous Pr0secu-
tiOn of the Struggle.

LONDON, Jan. 6.--Interest center
ed today on war-not peace. Two
conferences-one by the allies, the
other by the highest officials of the
central powers, are cited to indicate
that both sets of belligerents intend
ed to make answer to the various
peace notes with force of arms
The allies conference was held at
Rome 1t was meeting of the prime
ministers and cabinet members OF the
ententes. England had Lloyd George
and Lord Miner, member of the
war council present. France was
represented by minister of war Lyau-
tey, BRAND and munitions minister
Thomas Russia had General Plaitzin
of the general staff.
1t was officially characterized as a
get together session. Forecasts were
made OF a more vigorous prosecution
of the war.
The Germanic conference was held
in the field camp of the kaiser. Those
present were the kaiser Archduke
Frederick, Field Marshal Hoetzen-
dorff, Crown Prince Boris of Bulgar-
it; Hindenburg and quartermaster
General Lundendorff.
The Teutonic censors would not
permit the dispatches to tell what was
considered and no reason was given
why they called the conference.
British public opinion holds there
could be no better answer to the Ger
man peace proposals than today S
Rome conference, with its professed
purpose to obtain greater unity of eff
fort in waging the war The confer
ence also developed the failure OF
Germany's scheme to cause a dssen-
sion among the allies.
