Monday Night— A bad accident qccurred this morn- ing when the 9 o'clock north bound Berlin trolley colllded with an auto- nobile truck belanging to Tucker and Gopdwin of Hartford at the Boston Post corner. There had been a truck stalled on Damon's Hill and after pairing a beoken chain It was started again It then stopped in front of the Berlin kfifflrv opposite a trolley stop. The or and Goodwin truck had de- Hivered part of its curgo to the Blake and Woodruff store which is on the wpposite corner, The trolley w. ing down Berlin street at rite of speed and there were passengers waiting at this stop. It \pPeared that the driver of the grocery truck did not pay heed to the warn Ings of the motorman to either hurry ncross the tracks wait until the tur passed L The ralls on Berlin street are slip- pery from the leaves and the e morning dew.

The othet how- wver, declined to be made the “goat a8 he had stopped on the right s wnd as near the curb as possible. When the driver saw that he could not plame him he raved ot the motorm and conductor of the trolley car. But this was useless as the eye witnesses knew he was in the wrong and did not let him think otherwise. After a general taking of names by both phrtios the passengers boarded the trolley and it proceeded toward New Pritain Meoting Poorly Attended The adjourned town meeting was attended last night by a small but snergotic crowd. It was ealled to order at 8:10 o'clock by Robert Doming. The minutes of the last and special meet- ing were read by Arthur Woodruft and accepted. On request of Major F. L. Wileox the resolution of Claude Stevents in regard to the War memor- 1Al waa read After the reading Major Wilcox de a resolution that the names of or ! funa memorial. Griswold He sald that the Emma Hart Willard chapter D. A. R. had been -entirely left out and as they had at deal for the town and bad gone to the trouble of marking the sites of all the Revdlutionary soldiers’ graves in Berlin he felt that done_ a gr a member should be added to this committee, Tha motion was carried The selectmen’s report, gthe " tieas- urers’ report, the town school commit- tees’ report and the health officers’ re- port, were then accepted from the table with but a few criticisms. Judge Alling made a few attempts to criti- cize Dr. Griswgld for work during his term as selectman but failed as the voters present did not care to hear his remarks. The last business was the report of the finance board and the budget for the ensuing year. Judge Alling said that he moticed in the report that the selectmen were authorized to borrow only $20,000 to pay for town expenses before the collection of taxes next May, He said that the former board had borrowed $36,000 and did not see how they could get along this year on $20,000. First Selectman Carter then said that $5,000 -has already been borrowed dnd at least 000 more would be needed. After much discus- sion Mr. Alling made a resolution that they be able tojborrow $25,000 if necessary, His amendment was car- ried. As expenses of the assesors have be- come greater this year their amount was rajsed from $350 to $450 and the amount to the board om relief cut from $110 to $60 seorge Carter then referred to the $1,000 emergency fund. He would like to know how that is going to last if $700 is to be used from it for the war memorial. At the last meeting it was decided that this amount was to be added to this year's budget anod was not to come from the emergency The money would be raised by additional taxes. The matter of to bridges was Mr, Carter and the then amount alloted brought up by after a lengthy dis- cussion it raised from $350 to $600. The motion which was made for the acceptance of the budget was then carried and the meeting adjourn- ed until the first Wednesday in March.
