Residents Along Route Are to Petition Utilities Commission, Residents along the route of the Central Vermont railway who are in the habit of traveling to New London or Norwich daily are in high dudgeon over the change in schedule which compels them to wait for the Seashore Limited in the morning, the train which they formerly took having Leen taken off. They are getting up a peti- tion to present to the public utilities commission asking that body to take action jn the matter. One business man who used the train daily from his summer home said Fri- day morning that he had been forced to abandon it and take to the trolley cars at great inconvenience. He as- serted that the Seashore Limited is always late and that one morning he had to wait an hour and a half for it. A member of the public utilities com- mission has already had his attention called to the situation verbally, and a written communication to the whole board is now being prepared. $126,002.68 WAS SPENT FOR LAWRENCE HOSPITAL.
