Not Advertised in Norwich Papers. At the opening of the hearing, the railroad company objected to enter- taining the petition, on the ground that there was no bill pending as to those twe proposed streets. Mr. Murphy made the point that the streets asked for by the railroad in Norwich were hot adverised in he | local papers,. to which the railroad nmme answered that it was advertised | in some paper in New Lendon county. Norwich were not advertised in the man of the committee for a ruling, and | he aceepted the petition. A Real Hearing Coming. - A real hearing en the matter will be assigned for next Thursday. On the whole what was to have been a | hearing Thursday proved a fizzle, but through no fault of the Nerwich del- egation, which was a strong one.
