Plant May Acquire All New Haven Road’s Lines in State—Has 223 Miles Now. A group of Boston and Providence capitalists are said to be forming a syndicate for the purpose of buying lines of the New Haven company, according to a report from an apparently reliable source last night.

While this syndicate as reported de- sires only the Rhode Island trolley properties there is much interest about ihe state as to what will become of the Connecticut company.

Just what syndicate or combination ~of financiers will take over that part of the Connecticut com- Pany, known formerly as the Connec- iticut Railway and Lighting company and pay for it what the New Haven paid for it is one of the questions not to be answered at this time. Unless the C. R. & L., has improved wonaer- fully in value in the past eight vears or so, the New Haven is not apt to re- ceive the price it paid for this sec- tion of trolley.
