 The petition of the Waterbury AIilldale Tram Co. for permission to operate abus line between Water- bury and Hartford via Milldale, Southington, Plainville, Pennington and West Hartford is the source of considerable interest to residents of this city in view of the recent re- fusal of the public utilities commits sion to grant a franchise between Bristol and Hartford by way of West Hartford to Mcdonnell brothers of this city. Permission was, however. granted for the opera ton of bus line between Bristol and Pennington and this service will be started just as soon as the new state road through Scott's swamp IS completed.
 It is believed locally that many persons would patronize bus service from Plainville to Hartford due to the infreQuent train service between this city and Hartford. This would me particularly true. 1t Is pointed out during the summer time. At the time Mcdonnell brothers peti- tion was heard, the only re- monstrants were representatives of the New York, NeN Haven and Hartford railroad Co. and the Con- necticut Co. The granting of the franchise would tend to diminish the receipts of these two companies. which would necessitate . further reduction in service. according to the representatives of the trans portation companies.
 Permission to operate bus line between Waterbury and Bristol by way of Wolcott has already been granted to the Waterbury Milldale Tram company by an act passed by the state legislature.
