.METHODISTS MOVE
AHEAD OF SWEDES
Defeat Them in Postponed Game
Blue Army Forfeits


The Trinity Methodists defeated
the First Lutherans, SIS, in a. post
! poned Inter-C Church league game at
Willow Brook park last evening and
stepped past that team into second
place. The game was fast and we'll
played, with plenty of solid line
smashes on the part Of the batters
and several pretty fielding PLAYS.
Roth Shepard and Fresen started off
in great style, setting back the op-
posing batters for two innings with
out trouble. The Swedes emerged
from the third inning with lead
when they scored twice and held the
Methcdists to one run by tight work
with the tying score on third.
After stalking the Lutherans to an
other in tho fifth, the Methodists
came right back to even the score.
and 1t began to look like an overtime
affair. In the last of the sixth, how
ever, Fresen weakened with one out.
A single by Horace Pinkerton and
! failure to cover any base on Allison's
and Holtman's infield hits filled the
bases, and Fresen walked Deming
Hewett, forcing In the run which
broke the tie. Jones scored two more
with a torrid smack to left and the
run total for the inning went to
five on a pair OF errors. The Swedes
rallied desperately but were checked
in time.
Features included the first base
play OF Carl Linn. a catch Of a line
drive by Bell. Nyborg's speed in CEN

The Blue Army rallied to put in an

play. The default lost the Bluebirds
their last chance OF getting into fifth
place.

the mound after the third inning
and treated Schneider, who succeed
ed him, roughly while the game
lasted, Nine innings were to be
played, but as the score piled up,
the game was sawed off after the
JiXth frame.
There isn't much to say about the
game except that the Stanley Works
were il. They scored four runs in
the first inning on three singles, a
walk, sacrifice and dropped third
strike. Two more came in in the
second on walk and three singles.
Add two more in the third on four
singing singles and the Stanley
Works had eight.
The team rested in the fourth.
when Schneider, the southpaw,
struck out two and the other man
went out from second 10 first. Two
more were scored in the fifth, how
ever, on two singles, a walk and
two errors.
The Russwins got only one hit
during the game, and that was a
double by Jervis into left center
field. Paul Snyder made a great bid
to catch the drive, but missed trap
ping it and the ball rolled into the
rough in center field for double.
Jervis got to third, but that's where
he died. Only one other Russwin
player got as far as second. and |
that was Morelli. He also kicked |
the bucket there.
RS e. turned in a snappy double
play for the feature Of the game in !
the fifth inning. Two men were on, I,
Salak on second and Green on frat.
Scott hit to Mullen at third and he
tagged Salak and then threw out
Green at second. 1t was snappy |
play.
Warner Johnson was never In
better form than he was during the |
game. He whizzed the ball across

new TRUNK line
FAV0RS This CITY
Shippers Interested in Another
Route to West

New Britain, Waterbury, Hartford
and all the cities along the so-called
Waterbury branch line of the New
Haven railroad are interested in the
latest examiners report by the In
terstate Commerce Commission,
which was favorable to a new short
line trunk line between the east and
Chicago. The trunk line would
link up the Lehigh and New Eng
land-which is the western outlet
OF the Waterbury branch line be-
yond the Hudson--the Reading, the
Buffalo, Rochester and Pittsburgh,
and the Baltimore & Ohio.
Through freight service over such
a line would be the shortest and
quickest route from New Britain to
the west. That it is consolidation
almost certain to eventuate is evid-
ent from the favor in which IT is
held by the l. c.. c., which is expect
ed to act favorably upon the exam
iner's report, just made.
The consolidation is being made
voluntarily and through purchases.
The Reading was given carte
blanche permission to get complete
control of the Lehigh and New Eng
land through control of its stock,
of which Reading is already said
to own a majority.
The Reading in turn is largely
owned by the Baltimore and Ohio.
which, with the New York Central,
is buying up shares wherever offer
cd. The New York Central Is des-
tined to sell its shares to the B. &
O. at an early date, in conformity
with a cooperative plan to insure
control by the B. & O., this being
the Centrars way of battling the
Pennsylvania in its own territory.
With control Of the Reading by
the B. & o. would also go control
of the Central railroad of New Jer-
sey, which is already controlled by
the Reading.
The Buffalo, Rochester and Pitts
burgh line connects with the Read
ing and Jersey Central, and in turn
on it's western end connects with
the Baltimore & Ohio. No new
trackage would need to be con-
structed to form this new through
trunk line which would pass
through northern Pennsylvania and
pass Pittsburgh to the north, thus
avoiding the congested area around
that city.
This new short trunk line, be-
tween New York and Chicago,
would be only four miles longer
than the Pennsylvania-the short

age taxpayer does not welcome an
| increase in taxes, but in this IN
stance, the demand for an improved
method Of disposal OF garbage, rub
Dish and ashes must be met.
DR.. Pullen said New Britain gar
bage Is being disposed OF in Bris-
tol and Plainville. 1t cannot be dis
posed OF In Berlin, Newington and
Pennington, and 1t is only a ques-
ton Of time when there will be no
place for its disposal. New Britain is
built up in all directions to such
proximity to its boundaries that To-
cal disposal is out of the question
The cost OF collecting the garbage is
increasing from year to year and
there is no reason to expect 1t will
ever decrease. The burial of garbage
has its disadvantages and at best can
only afford temporary solution OF the
problem.
Relative to the health angle of the
garbake situation, DIR. Pullen said
garbage itself is not breeder of dis
ease. 1t draws flies and eventually
causes a filthy condition, but in it.
self it does not menace public health.
One of the strongest arguments for
the moderator is that the burning
of refuse such rs excelsior, old box
es. cardboard and pasteboard recep-
tacles In small incinerators in rear
yards about tho city causes a smoke
nuisance which cannot be tolerated
indefinitely. Ii all such refuse was
gathered up regularly and burned In
an incinerator such as is contemplate
ed, the smoke nuisance would be
eliminated. the fire hazard in the
business district would be lessened,
and the conditions at the Farming
ton avenue and Glen street dump
ing grounds, where fires are con-
stantly SIN oldering and giving off
large volumes of choking smoke.
would be done away with. DR.. Pull
len said.
The bes location for the proposed
moderator Is on thu Town Farm
property near the municipal abat-
toir, DR.. Pullen said. Because of
the presence of a billy slant of the
land, the expense of building a
ramp would be precluded.
Those at the meeting were: Coun-
Gilman D. L. Bartlett, Councilman
w. D. Boyle. A 'erman W. H. Judd,
Councilman Thomas Fay; DR.. NJ. S.
Dunn. and ]. J. McBriarty of the
health board, and DR.. R. w. Pullen,
superintendent of '0ealth.

SAYS CITY needs
AN INCINERATOR
Must Have It Regardless Of
Cost, Judd Declares

The city Of New Britain very
shortly must establish an incinera-
tor plant and dispose of garbage by
burning it. regardless of the ex-
pense, Alderman W. H. Judd said
at the first meeting OF the commit
tee appointed to consider the adj
visibility OF having an incinerator,
last evening. He said $150,000,
which DIR. R. W. Pullen mentioned
as the probable cost of an so ton
plant, Is too large an amount to be
paid out OF taxation IN single year.
so 1t Is probable that a bond issue
may be required. Borrowing the
money on short term notes and pay
ing off the notes year by year would
be good method Of financing the
project, he said, but he was under
the impression that the city has the
right to borrow not more than
$4,000 on this plan.
Alderman Judd and other mem
bers of the committee expressed the
conviction that 1t would be unwise
for the city to establish reduction
plant for the retaining Of by
products of garbage, as Is done in
Bridgeport. The overhead expense
of such plant is so great and the
market for tankage so uncertain
that the city would not be justified
in attempting to operate along these
lines. the members said, and deci-
sion was made to consider only an
fncinerator. Representatives of
manufacturers specializing In incin-
orator plants will be apprised of the
desire OF the committee for informa-
ton and it is expected hearings will
be given them very soon, in order
that the least possible delay may be
had in preparing a recommendation
to the common council and board of
nance and taxation.
Councilman Bartlett, who pre-
sided at the meeting, said he is con-
WINGED that the time is not far dis
tant when the city off New Britain
will be obliged to dispose of its gar
bage In a manner different from
the present system. The municipal
collection Of ashes, rubbish and gar
bage should be given thought at this
time. he said. Every property owner
Is put to some expense every year
for the removal Of ashes and refuse
and Councilman Bartlett said a mu-
nicipal collection system would act
ually be saving even though an in
crease in taxes must result because
of the expense Of the proposed incin-
orator. He admitted that the aver

about 1000 feet less elevation than
the Pennsylvania, thus insuBing
greater economy in operation. 1t IL
said.
President Loree Of the Delaware
and Hudson had similar scheme
a year ago but as his line has no
outlet to the west, and as the
scheme required the construction Of
much new expensive mileage. the I.
c. c. refused to sanction 1t. The
B. & o. scheme is favored because
no new trackage is needed, insur-
ing lowest possible costs to ship
