Many of the cities of the state Te- port a_smaller amount of water on hang than at this time last year. The Norich raservoir became emp- ty last winter and has filled to with- in 134 inches, which is about 50 inches lower than in May of last vear. With the pumping station and Mohegan lake aiding in the supply, it is belicved the | situation is much better than last year, as then the daily reservoir draught was 1,800,000 gallons, and now it is but 700,000. Clerk Raymond stat- ed to a New Haven inquirer that the conditlons are’ below normal. As the Tesult of the city's experience last the commissioners are puilding a huge reservoir at Stony brook that will dou ble the present capacity in use early next year. While conditions were more favorable today than last vear at this time, said Raymond, they were taking no chances and precautionary steps would be taken as soon as a drought threatened. Superintendent Richards of the New London department reported the water in Lake Koromoc to be nine inches below the spillway. This is nine inch- es lower than last year in May, when water was running over the spillway. At Hartford a total capacity is con- siderably bslow normal. The water commissioners state that the supply is gradually going down and if rain does not come soon they will have to take steps to curtail the use of the yater by factorles and public bulld- ngs Meridan reported one-half of the total quantity in the reservoirs.

MORTGAGE FORECLOSED ON NORWICH AND WESTERLY ROAD Electric Line to Be Soid by Rebert W. Perkins, Who is Appointed Speci Master—Stockholders Lose All. That stockholders of the Norwich and Westerly electric railzoad will lose 361,000 and bondholders of the com- pany will probadly lose many thou- ‘sands, developed at a hearing in fore- closure proceedings before Judge Noyes in the United States circuit court at New Haven Saturday. The par value of the bonds is $750, 000, but with accrued unpaid interest the' bondholders have a claim against the road.ali told of $933,302.

The re- ceiver_had_already been allowed for himself and ounsel fees 35.5!

With the end of today’s business at the postoftice, Postmaster Caruthers and the local staff be, about haltway~ through _with the counting and timing of mail «s ordered by the department to be carried on af all the' postoffices in the country from May ‘1%0 May 31 is a_great amount of detail involved in carry- ing out the department’s. directions on this order, and although the offices generally received advance notice and were advised to make one or two trial dayg before May 1. the count and tab- ulation of records has mot gone for- in all offices, judging ' from_the number of made of the Jepartment about the order. But in the Norwich office the s re- quired have been gotten at with little friction, since Postmaster Caruthers had exercised his usual foresighted- ness and had the plan all mapped out ready to start on the first day of May. What the plan involves may be gath- ered when it is known that the Nor- wich office a total of about 22, 000 incoming and outgoing letters dal Iy in the first class mail and from 800 newspapers on a small day to 2,000 on a big days in the second ciass, besides all the other classes and subdigisions of the mail matter han- dled. There are four things which the de- partment i trying to learn about ali the mail that is handled. These ar First, number of pleces handled; sec ond, ‘actual time consumed in hand- ling; third, average number of pieces handled per minute; and, fourth, av- erage number of handlings each plece reccived. The time is to be kept in minutes from which it can be figured just_how many pieces of each class of mail matter can be handled .in a minute, Blanks are provided on which the total day by day and the grand total for the month can be shown, which are to be returned as soon as possible to the postal department.at ‘Washington when the month is over. In order to return the record sheet to the department in as good shape as possible, Postmaster Caruthers is keeping the dally figures on sheets of common brown paper from which the totals for the day are transferred to the fnal sheet. All the sub-sta- ugns are included in the count and make returns to the main postoffice where theff records are added to general results. The carriers are also counting and keeping time on the let- ters they deliver and collect, having daily sheet of brown paper on which they make their returns, From figures already obtained at the local postofilce | it was shown that about 16 to 19 let- | ters per minute were handled in an incoming mail of 11000 letters and about 20 per minute in an outgoing mail of the same number. To make a general count and timing of the mail would be a big task, any- way, but the government directions on this assignment are of such -tooth- comb variety as to add greatly to the detajl. Every class and subdivision of mail has to be counted and timed sep- arately and separate records made, which are added together to get the grand total 4 25 For instance, in the first class mail, which comprises letters, there is no subdivision, but in the second class mall there are newspapers, magazines, transient, local delivery = and free in county mail, each to be counted and timed separatcly. Altogether there are fourteen classes and subdivisions to be Kept track of. TROOP 2 WINS IN JUNIOR LEAGUE OPENER.
