Although English men and women

GREENWICH WATER
 CO. FIGHT RACES
Town and Railroad Lawyers
 Battling for Rights

Bridgeport, Conn, Aug. 12 tP - The state legislature in 1880 gave to the Greenwich Water company the right ito carry every drop of water" from the Mianus river in Greenwich, Judge Carl Foster of Bridgeport asserted in arguments made this morning before Judge John W. Banks of superior court, and he contended that the New Haven Railroad company, in build ing q dam on the river for it's Cos Cob electric power house, inevita- bly, will take property which the state has authorized the water company to acquire and which, he said, it intends to take. The legis- lature. MT. Foster declared, gives water company a monopoly for the public good because such utility is not restricted but is for all time.
 The presentation of evidence has been completed on the motion made by the New Haven road company asking Judge Banks to dissolve the temporary injunction company and stopping work on the railroads contemplated s6OO,0O0 dam. Arguments were started when the hearing was resumed today.
 The railroad company claims it is losing $93.36 for every day the construction work is halted. Judge Foster questioned that declaration, pointing out his belief that the railroad is protected against de- lays under a contract drawn with the skill and legal knowledge friends Of the railroad are famous for
 It was contended for the water company that the construction of the railroad dam may not go for ward until there is disposed of in superior court the pending appeal taken by the Water company from the decision of the public utilities commission which gave authority to the railroad 10 build the dam.

NO MORE BLANKET POLICY
 IN TOBACCO INSURANCE.
Hereafter Association Memebers must Place Insurance Directly
 With Some Agency

Hartford. Conn, Aug. F. Pp-An members of the Connecticut Valley Tobacco association who wish to car ry fire insurance on their 1926 to- bacco in the sheds, and until it is delivered to the warehouses, will have to place the insurance direct with some agency, it was announced at the association office today.
 The past two years the association covered the tobacco of members from harvesting until warehouse de- livery uder a blanket policy of s400 an acre.
 One reason for the change is the many fires last year which gave rise to many complications in making ad- justments.
 Slime of the members who wished insurance of more than s4O0 an acre placed insurance with some agency for the extra amount and when the adjustment process was begun for loss by fire there were two policies to be adjusted.
 Tardy reports Of fire losses added to the trouble in making the ad- justments.
 Another reason is that although fire insurance on the tobacco of members was no part of the over head charges and not an absolutely necessary expense a great many members have persisted in calIine if part of the overhead.
