The- silk industry in Putnam is in satisfactory condition at the present time, but one prominently identified with one of the plants expresses doubts as to whether the improvement is due to a desire of buyers to get a stock that will outlast adverse war conditions that may arise, or to a pos- itive betterment of market conditions. It was so cold Wednesday that many Putnam people who had plan- ned to go over to Pomfret for the 200th miversary celebration changed their plans. Should the weather prove warmer today the attendance at Pom- fret will probably be decidedly in- creased. New: Haven Road vs. City of Putnam. A suit of the N, Y. H & H.R.R.

The rallrond seeks to have the city pay for the expense that was involved in making the change, but this the city refuses to do, con-! tending that the railroad has no legal right to have the pipe line where jt is, even though the city has allowed it to remain.
