Putnam, July 22.—It was rumored here Tuesday that Putnam may be made the headquarters of ‘the Midland division of the New Haven system. The headquarters of the division are now | located in Hartford. The rumor is based on stories that have come out of | New Haven relative to the railroad's | plans to reduce the size of the various | divisions through the system in'accord- ance with the recent recommendation | contained in the recent report of the | Interstate Commerce commission. Un- | der the lines that would limit the area of the Midland division under the talk- ed .of changé, Putnam would be at about the geographical centre and the logical place for divisional headquar- | ters. A half dozen years ago Putnam was considered as headquarters of the Midland division and plans so far ad- | vanced to make it such that negotia- i tions were opened for the lease 'of the third floor of Union block which is next fo the railroad station for division headquarters but the plans never ma- tured. If the headquarters are trans- ferred to Putnam it will bring a divi- sion superintendent, his assistant, frain despatchers and an office force esti- mated at about 30 people to this city. No verification of the proposed plan could be obtained from local railroad men Tuesday. . BALTIC Matters ChileParwnal—M-il Un« claimed—Guests Come and Go.
