Conditions were found to be sanitary
 and for that reason no action was taken on the complaint.
 Three Grade Crossings Discussed.
 Acting upon an invitation eXtend-
 ed by the city council, Superinten-
 dent J. J. Snavely of the New York,
 New Haven and Hartford Railroad
 Company of Waterbury attended the
 meeting that that body last evening
 to discuss primarily the matter of
 additional crossing protection for
 Federal street At the present time,
 it was pointed out, the crossing IS
 protected by gateman from a.
 m. to 6 D. m., and it was the desire
 of the city fathers to have the
 crossing protected until midnight,
 the same as is now being done at
 Center street and Doolittle's Cross
 ing Mir. Snavely felt that he would
 take the matter up with his su-
 periors and communicate the Mayor
 Wade a little later.
 In connection with the petition
 for a bell and light signal at Em-
 melt street. Mir SnaVely stated that,
 in view of the fact that the streee had never been accepted by the city
 as d public highway, hew as inclin-
 ed to believe that the officials of his
 company would refuse 10 eXpend the amount of money necessary for such protection in view of the fact that other crossings where there was more travel should be taken care of first. He suggested. however. that in the event the council wished to take the matter further, it might | be referred 10 the public utilities commission following the receipt of
 such advice from his company.
 Councilman Charles R. Anderson
 also brought up the matter of the { elimination of Doolittle's Crossing. | He felt that such action should be 1 taken before brick buildings were erected in that vicinity and asked ! Mir. Snavely if it would not be pos sible for his engineers to make a railroad survey in the nature of a bridge. Mr. Snavely replied that any survey that the railroad com pnay might make would be from a
 utilitarian standpoint rather than 1 from a municipal one. MT. Ander- | son felt that this should be done and | Superintendent Snavely stated that | he would take the matter up with 1 his engineering department. Doo- lttle's Crossing is one of the most | dangerous in the state, Pennington | avenue. Burlington avenue. North i street. Maple street and Judd street 1 all coming together at the crossing.
 A driver of any vehicle not only has ! to watch for approaching trains but l also for traffic coming from all of 1 the other four streets. The cost of ! an overhead bridge would be enor-
 nous due 10 the fact that it would i be necessary 10 raise the grades of l the various streets, particularly 1 Pennington avenue and North ! street, a number of feet.

Our loyalty to our principles is being

knowledge of technicalities may.
I'VE know that our strength lies
In setting millions Of women to think
