The acceptance of the of fer of the Eastern Connecticut Power company is provisional and will not be accepted unless Engineer H. E. Mole sanctions the move, and cons d . CTS it satisfactory.

nently but simply an emergency measure in case anything should happen at the local plant so that power from this source could not be furnished. MT. Shea said that it was absurd for anyone to think for a min ute that the city would make con tract with the Eastern Connecticut Power company to furnish all power when the city had million dollar plant here. and it was out of the question to think that the local plant would be sold or done away with.
 The meeting of the comm: :ssioners was lengthy session, occupying three hours which were spent in dis cussing various matters concerning the ways and means of the plant Those present at the meeting were D T. Shea, James l.. Case, Martin E Jensen, Guy B. Dolbeare and John T Sullivan. The meeting was held 1T | the directors room at the office oi the company on Shetucket street.
