Several of the present stockholders intend (o sti That there is no chance of the arms company leaving Norwich was declared by an interested New Havener today. “The plant is too well 2qipped and .n | too good condition for us to give it up to go elsewhere.” Concerning future plans of the com- pany, nothing will be decided for some time 'to come. And concerning the per- sonnel of the new corporation nothing could be learned: To take the old stock over, the newv holders had, legally, until Aug. 20th. As that date falls on Sunday this year the time limit for transfer legally is 1p on Monday. Will Take Place Next Week, Stock Transfers Closing | ‘August 20—No Chance of Its Leaving This City— Opinion of Interested New Havener. In this city there is little to be learned concerning the reorganization of the ccmpany. It is reported that Samuel Avis of New Haven is slated | for the presidency of the concern with George E. Avis as the sécretary and seneral manager .Reports riffer on the treasurer, one being that M. C. Mason of Rockville will have that office with Mr. Watt of New Huven as a selesman ‘while another report is to the effect that Mr. Watt will be treasurer. It is stated that Mr. Jewett, who _hs,s been with the Underwood Typewriter company, is slated for the superin- tendency of the factory. As to.the board of directors it is said that sev- eral of these and others will be chos- en, the New Haven men who have pur- chased the controlling interest having the say in that regard. The factory is rumning on full time with many orders ahead it is claimed and according to the terms whereby the change of the majority of stock was to be made, Sunday is the date named, or a month from that time, the announcement was made to the stock- holders.

There was a good attendance at the meeting of _the Norwich Motorcycle club, held in the shop of Stebbins & Geynet Friday evening. No regular | business was brought up, the entire session being devoted to a discussion of the races which the club is plan- ning to run at the fairgrounds during the fair. There will be three races, one on each day of the fair, and al- ready several entries have been re- ceived for each race, promising plenty cf excitement. 'The prizes will be as follows: Mon- Gay, September 4—first prize, motor- cle tire; second, inner tube; third, spark plug. Tuesday, September b t prize, inner tube; second prize, watch and holder; third, pump. Wed- nesday, September G—first prize, in- ner tube; second prize, horn; third, box Horsey patches. There is some question as to wheth- the club will be able to secure the room in the Chapman block as was voted at the last meeting, as it is thought that the storage of motorcy- cles in the building will veid the in- surance. er Several new members have been added to the club since the previous meeting. A number of the tlub members are planning to leave for Savin Rock early Sunday morning. The start will be made from the store of C. V. Pendle- ton, Jr. WATER PIPES CLOGGED.

Toll Bridge Charges. Toll charges over the new bridge at Saybrook will probably be about the same as the present ferfy charges. A record of the automobiles using the ferry the past year shows that from 75 to 90 per cent. were cars from out of the state, so that the biz part of the maintenance of the bridge will be borne by non-residents of the state, who prefer a bridge to the trouble- some ferry. * Were at Eastern Point.
