" EXPRESS SERVICE BARALONG CASE MAY BE BETTERED PROBE REJECTED . Hope fTor Additional Express Shi ments From Gities Local merchants and members of the Chamber of Commerce are enter- taining fond hopes that the ' petition presented the company’ officials for an improved expres vice from New York and Boston to this city will soon be granted, which will mean a superior service than the local merchants hav heretofore ¢njoyed. The plan, if carried out, will greatly facilitate the many im- provements in trade in this city which is the one aim of the progressive business men. Until the matter carnest by the secretary chamber, the hindrance was not fully appreciated by the local storekeepers. As the temt now stands a merchant is unable to secure any freight from the Metropolis that js not shipped before 10 o'clock in- the forenoon. In consequence many ar- ' ticles that are a necessity are im- possible to secure until forty-eight hours after the order is sent in. In Joston the conditions are even worse. Here it necessary that all ship- be sent from the lock. The proposi- have to face can taken up in of the local to busine: “Hub” before 8 o tion the tradesmen readily be seen. The petition of the local chamber <ks that an additional shipment be made from each of these cities every afternoon. The New York matter should leave there at 2 o'clock ar- riving here at 5:01 and from Boston «t the same hour arriving here at 5:33 o'elock. This would afford the mer- chants an opportunity of having their crders delivered the same day. The petition does not ask that any extra “trains be added as there are trains now leaving the above cities at these Lcurs. Practically all the express coming to this city is delayed by transferring it at several points, and it requested in the petition that the above im- provements be made so as to have a ¢irect express service to this city. Merchants in Bristol and Waterbury are also intterested in the proposed .change as it will also effect them beneficially Arrangements have been completed or the demonstration of the Trar tinental telephone in this which will be held on February Details pertaining to where demonstration will be held have not Leen completed.
