The Thames Ferry Will Move to Relieve the Congestion in Traffic—Hebe Has Been Restored to Her Pedestal and - a New City Clock Has Been Put in the First Church of Christ. The New London Ship and Engine company, located on the site of the late lamented Eastern Shipbuilding company, is pushing te the front rank of machine manufacturing Industries of the state and is sure to be of great bedefit to New Lomdon and Groton, and add materfally to the population and general progressiveness. Hardly had the present plant been established when it was found that additions were necessary and that the business was even greater than expected Already there has been extensive addition to the iarge office building which includes the drafting department, an addition made to the machine shop, and just at the present time there are onme hun- dred men employed in the erection of & mill buflding fuily as large as the original bullding. These structures are no wooden affairs, but substantial brick bufldings, which i{s taken as in- dication of the solidity of the busine Almost contingously thers are repre- sentatives of the federal and foreign governments at the plant inspecting some work in course of construction for the governments they represent, which shows the International im- portance of the industry. Just s soon as the new bufiding is completed and furnished, the present working force will be doubled and there are orders enough In hand to kesp the big plant busy for two years, w&:h, of couras, means further increase in the size~of the plant in the very near future to keep up with the increasing business. s 1s the concern that located here through the influence of a son of the late Capt. Stephen A. Gardner, who is connected with the main company, of whica this is subgidiary, end the in- terest shown by New London men un- der the lead of Henry R. Bond, who is now secretary and treasurer of the local branch of the big industry. This 1t will be also remembered is one of those industrial concerns that are not looking around for the highest bidding place to locate, but in order to have direct locel interest in the company gave New Londoners opportunity to invest in the stock of the company to the amount of §70,000 and this was subseribed for et the very first meet- ing of the parties interested. The in- vestment certainly looks good and there are many New Londoners with -rn capital who now regret that they dld not go In on the ground floor when they had the epportunity. The Thames Forry company Is plan- ning to do full shave towards ro- lieving the congestion and decreasing the elemant of er at the ferry ap- qunh and raeilroad crossing in New endon, The siip is to be exiended fifty feet, which means that the ferry heuse will be moved that distance out into the harbor and that the space between the railread tracks and the ferry landing wiil be fifty feet more ?u\ at present. This will greatly acilitate the business of vehieles us- ing the ferry as the present accom- modations are inadsguate in that re- spect and as a resuit much of the ad- joining Fergusen preperty {s tres- assed mnwa}‘y automebiles and ting for the ferrybeat and which results in a erush that on- dangers the passengers whem the boat dees arrive. While this change will be of great pensfit to pairons of the fer- 1%, it will rot relisve tho danger atthe malicagd aonogded te e the most dangerous on the system of the New York, New Haven & Hart- ford Raliroad Co. although the watch- fulness of the crossing tenders has prevented loss of life. Gates are impracticable at that crossing by reason of the immense | traffic and the general layout of the viclnity and in consequence the cross- ing tenders must be on their jobs ev- | ery minute during their tour of duty 8nd in the summer time they are aid- | ed by a policeman stationed there at | the expense of the city. As the rail- road company has plans for the abol- ichment of the crossing in connection | with the utilizing of the new bridge . 8cross the Thames river, the city gov- | ernment and the general public have been chary about making any formal complaint to the utilities commission, | and the lenlency of action is to be commended, and is no doubt appreci- | ated by the railroad company, ..There were at st two matters interest accomplished the of public | rro t week that have been long de- ayed and which have been the cause of almost uninterrupted criticism for a ! year or more. One is the replacing of the falling and crushed Hebe upon the pedestal at the water fountain at the | Junction of Truman and Bank streets, and the other is the placing of the new city olock in the steeple of the First Church of Christ. The new | Hebe 18 of imitation bronze and is a duplicate of the cup-bearing goddess who was found sprawling in the mud, decapitated at the base of the foun- tain, Now that Hebe poses as the | monarch of all she surveys, it is to be hoped that the street committee or| some other commities, or some indi- | vidual member of the court of com- | mon council will take the initiative that will result in keeping the sur-| roundings of that drinking fountain in presentable sbape, end that the fountain, for s+he first time, be placed in fuil working condition, so that the dog and small pony can get a taste of Konomoc as well as can the full-| grown horse; and also that the thirst | of the human being can be quenched | provided he wants to take a chance against the now accepted laws of san- itation. The old city olack, and it certainly was old, threescors and ten and more, and then soms more, had been erratic for tha past decade and finaliy became theroughly umreliabie, Jt was coaxed along for a time and finally stopped ghord, never to go again. Alderman O'Leary was the fivst to advocate ths purehase of & new oity clock and his motions wers sither delayed er pigeo: holed in a parlismentary way until he finaliy succeeded in getting the aj prepriation for the purchase of the alock voted in annual city meeting. The new clock is now in place and #ts face and features look we!l and there is noticeabls increase, in the volume of the hourly announcements, and it stars well 88 an acourate timskeeper. After a short time the ciack will be fully reguiated and it will bs looked up to as being thereughly reliable, in | mariked eomtrast te the latter years | of the venerable cloek that.did faith- ful service for many years, some be- | vond the memery of any living man.
