Once more the rumor of the sale of the Peck, Stowe & Wilcox plant is being heard in the district of Iast Berlin. The latest story is that a paper concern has secured an option on the property and according to the words of one of a party who inspected the plant yesterday, the land and bufldings will be purchased. A par- ty of men was in Kensington yester- day and it was learned they were )n their way to East Berlin for the purpose of looking over the facilities of the plant. It is said the new in- dustry will manufacture paper stock by a patented process. The company ls ‘capitalized at $150,000 and is in- orporated under the laws of Massa- ‘husetts. The members of the party were reticent concerning their pres- ence in Kensington and their desire to t to the Bast Berlin district but rom the conversation which was over- rd the listeners gathered they had secured an option on the property. The owners of the property at pres- ent *¢ould not be located this morning and consequently the report of the op- fon ‘could not be verified, but the opinion prevails in the district the sale will be consummated shortly for the party made a thorough exam- ination of the building and seemed pleased with the result of their in- spection. Although the members re- fused to reveal their names, two of them were recognized by townspeople as & P. Gillette of Boston and Henry Steinholt of Hartford. Mr. Gillette is well"known in Boston. Mr. Steinholt {s an engineer in the Capitol City. Nothing more could be gleaned con- cerning the locating of the new indus- try other than a firm of Boston brok- rs is underwriting the project. «: In the Storm’s Wake, The rainstorm of yesterday created considerable inconvenience to the townspeople and once more passen- gers were forced to walk over the tracks at the railroad brid=c to com- | plete their journey from Nev. iiritain. he drainage pipe was unable 10 draw he water of the concrete roadway as ast as it gathered with the result hatdle water was fully four feet n depth at 3:30 o’clock yesterday aft- rnoon.

Those citizens who were' desirous of setting home in automobiles this morning after the Masonic ball in New Britain assert that signs do not ways tell the truth. Many people from Worthington Ridge attended the ball and thinking the road under the railroad bridge was flooded and im- possible to go through, took the de- tour around the Four Rod highway. When they were on their way they noticed a large automobile . truck, owned by the Sherman Trucking com- pany of Hartford, stalled across the road. The truck had taken a load to Bridgeport yesterday and the driver thinking the Farmington and turnpike roads twould be unsafe for travel. took the detour. It wus very dark and the snow at the side of the roud fooled the driver, with the ‘result he ered a little too much toward the gutter and his machine became stuck in the mud.
