The new road would doubtless affect to some extent the business now being carried over the Central Vermont, although to what degree is not kmown. The new ldea for the route of the branch evidently seems more practical or more likely to be securcd than that through north. eastern nnecticut, although it is un- derstood that the route crosses the New Haven lines three times between Pal- mer and Providence. The effect it will have upon the Cen- tral Vermont road south of Palmer is what interests the residents of Connec- ticut, particularly in this section, to whom hopes of & new double track Because of the rumor that was cir- culated a number of-weeks ago, thatl efforts were being made to get e rights for the building of a railroad across the northeast corner of Connec- ticut by the Grand Trunk system, there was some surprise when it was an- nounced on ‘ednesday, as page two, that a charter is to be asked for such a road in Rhode Island, but which will not touch Connecticut, leaving the Central Vermont line at Palmer and running east in Massachu- setts and thence through Rhode Island into Providence. The decision is the outcome of sev- e months of very careful investiga- tion. Tt is stated that as nearly as can be ascertained at present the initial cost of construction in Rhode Island will be over $5,000,000, and that sum will be spent in the next two years. The aim in building this road is to ve the Grand Trunk system an out- et at Providence, and by so doing the plan which New ILondon has had of late of securing the terminal of the road there would seem to be blasted, should this road go through.
