It was stated on Thursday by one who is connected with the road tha more than two-thirds of the bondhold- ers and three-fourths of the creditors who have been seen have agreed to plans for reorganization, and there now remains the task of seeing the remain® der of the bondholders and creditors before the reorganization Is put into effect. There will be no foreclosure, it is believed. The larger interests having agreed upon a plan, it is not thought it will take a reasonable man long to make up his mind that a re- organization is the thing. The local holdings of the road are small, none of the banks being interested, althougn there is about $5,000 indebtedness and some of the preferred stock. The road while suffering from small earnings also suffered from bad accidents and heavy losses from suits. In speaking of the reorganization of the company, former Treasurer R. Perkins, who is a director, stated on Six hours after high water it is low tide, which is followed ed by flo flood tide. NORWICH TOWN Coming and Going of Local People on Outings Here and There, Mre.

Lillibridge ot Plain Hill are visiting relatives in dif- | that everyone, however interested, ferent towas of Rhode Island for a| would be looked out for. The bond- few weeks. ‘holders will, of course, come first, and Misses Enid, Florence and Elizabeth Northrop of Beech Drive returned on Thursday from a ten days’ stay at Pleasant View. Jthe others must of course come in their turn. The plan of the larger in- terests is about ready to be submit- ted. No one will lose his claim in the reorganization. The bondholders will get part bonds and part something else for their present holdings, or else there may be two-classes of bonds, one to be in the nature of preferred while the other will receive its interest if earned. This will allow tne scaling down of the fixed charges so that the road can take care of them, This it is believed will put the road on a sound financial basis, so that there will be the proper return on the investment, and no one will be crowded out. Addi- tional benefit to this road it is believed will be the Norwich, Colchester and Hartford line, as the Norwich-Wester- ly road will be on the line from the Capital to Watch Hill. It was stated Thursday that origin- ally about one-third of the total is- sue was held in New Haven. The amount has been reduced by exchange for Shore T.ine bonds, so that at the present time the holdings there are about $150,000. C. E. Thompson, who sold the bonds in New Haven, said Thursday he con- sidered the security ample and that Rev. Mr. and Mrs, E. H. Smith and their daughter, Eunice, of Huntington avenue, are in Worcebter and viainity for'a shart time. Mr. and Mrs. Philo Hard, Mrs. J. S. Lathrop and Miss E. J.

Hard Fought Match Between Brown The Naturalization club held a spe- and Olcott, the Former Winning. cial meeting at their rooms on Mer- chants’ avenue Tuesday evening. There wera matters to be discussed about the making of new voters. The other busi- ness was to choose delegates for the Franco-American convention which is to be held in Norwich next Tuesday. The following were chosen delegates: Adelard Morin, Henry Dufresne and Joseph Carom. It has been decided to held an out- ing for the members of the club exclu- sively about the middle of September. All arrangements were left to the fol- lowing committee: Arthur Trembley, Joseph Jarrie, Armedos Benoit, Vin- cent Brodeur and J. C. Marsan. Tennis of the Newport variety was exhibited Thursday afternoon at the courts at the rogue grounds, when Al- Iyn L. Brown and W. Tyler Olcott camne together, according to the draw- ing, in the first round and fought out a stubborn struggle of three sets be- fore Brown was finally returned the winner of the match. These two con- testants were recognized as among the strongest of the entries, Brown having been a member of the 'varsity team at Brown university and Olcott an old Trinity college player. Quite a good sized gallery was on hand for the match. Olcott started off well, and by clever and fast work took the first set 6—4. Brown struck his gait in the next and fairly swept Ol- cott off his feet by taking a love set. This left it at one all, with the third set to decide. 'Brown seemed to have safely stowed away with the -3 in his favor, but Olcott made rally and by winning three games in succession made it his ad- vantage 6—5. From then on the two see-sawed their way through a suc- cession of deuce sets, with the advant- aage in games first t0o one side and then the other, until Brown finally won out, 12— H. B, ry and J. O. D. Clark set- tled their match in the preliminary round, Cary winning 6—2, 6—0. He has now te meet William Frisbie in the first round. John L.

The Shore Line road has a prespect of a good earning capaci if completed. The Norwich road has carried along a large floating debt which it cannet pay off and now it is found that it cannot pay the 5 per cent. interest due onh its issue of $750,000 of gold bonds which were taken out to aid in the construction. Morton F. Piant, the well Known eastern capitalist, ig inter- ested in the road. It is believed by local financiers that the road has been too heavily capital- ized, having been mortgaged to the extent of $31,250 a mile. The remedies in its present serious condition are a scaling down of the bond issue, the consent of the bond- holders to the passing of the payment of interest or a foreclosure. The stock of the road is $450,000 wi?h preferred stock of $168,200. .Over this hangs the three-quarter million dollar bond issue alluded to above. These bonds are subject to call at 115 and in- terest. They were floated here at be- low par. The .road has eight trolley cars and twenty-four other cars, Its earnings for the year ending e 30, 1908, were gross $67,308: net 08. Charges $53.360: deficit, $50,852. No trouble of this sort has been ex- perienced by . a Connecticut railroad lately, it is said. UNIVERSALIST CHURCH TALKING ABOUT SITE Services Will Be at Buckingham Memorial This Winter—Organ Has Been Taken Down. The services for the Universalist church members will be held at the Buckingham Memorial through the | winter, commencing Sunday. The members are discussing among them- selves possible locations for a new church and while no meeting has been called for that purpose as yet, it is expected that one will be soon when the matter of building a new church will be brought up and decided upon. One influential meémber of the church states Thursday that the matter could probably be decided soon. The church organ was taken down on Thursday by H. Hall & Co., of New Haven, who installed the organ in the Masonic temple, and it will be shipped to New Haven for disposal. A new organ will be secured when the new church is ready. The bell in the church will also be reserved for future use. The Balloon with a Paddle, Berlin, making a heavy drain upon its abundant sentiment and patriot- ism, has managed to act as if it was wildly enthusiastic over the arrival there’ of Count Zeppelin's grotesque monster. His silken bubble succeeded at last in getting safely into and out of the German capital, but it had the inevitable disasters both coming and going. Now that its master has re- ceived his well-earned cheers from the populace and been embraced by the kaiser, while the saturnine Wright Jooked on and kept his face straight in spite of what must have been his inclination to laugh, Germany will, of course turn its attention with the rest of the world to real aerial navigation 48 it was last and most brilliantly exemplified at Rheims. A vast deal of time and meney has been wasted on the “balloon wjth a paddle,” but not much more of éither will be, for everybody now knows that the airship of the future will be an aeroplane—a machine worthy of the name, with due proportion between available power and mass to be moved, and obviously destined in time to be at least as indifferent to meteorologi- cal eccentricities and caprices as are the ships that creep heavily- about on the face of the waters. - To be sure, that time has not come, but it h in view for the long-sighted.— Y.
