Notwithstanding the quaran- tine, however, it is feared that per- sons suffering, from the disease may find. their way to this state from New York. The case in New London, Monday evening, where a woman was found with a child which had_died from the disease, is believed to be an instance of an escape from the New York quarantine. Dr. Black, secretary of the state board, said Tuesday, that.the towns in the state in which there were cases were Hartford, one; Norwich, one; Branford, one; Stonington, two; Tor- rington, two; New _Haven, one; Bridgeport, two; and Stamford, two.

THE NEW HAVEN'S ADVERTISING PRIVILEGE Executivo Assistant Riggs Expl Company's Side of the Question. The Interstate Commerce Commis- slon and Commissions generally have vointed out to rallway managements that they should not ask for increases in rates until they have exhausted all efforts to obtain revenue from every available source in order to increase the efficiency of operation, said Ed- ward G. Riges, executive assistant of the N. Y., N. H. and Hartford railroad Wwho was in Norwich on Tuesday. The New Haven road has been able, in the past two years, to increase some rates, but many rates, particu- larly passenger rates, are far too low for the service rendered under pres- ent conditions of wages and heavily advanced prices of railway material The company is trying to increase the efficlency of its operation, but is lim- ited in that respect by inadequate fa- cllities, and these can be improved only by the expenditure of large sums of money." After a.year's careful investigation and thorough discussion of the mat- ter, the company found it could ob- tain from $150,000 to $250,000 & year by renting the advertising privilege. The company is frank to say it did not want to avail itself of this meth- od of getting money, but beggars can- not always be choosers. The sub- ject was laid before the board of di- rectors, who are unselfishly working to try to improve the New Haven property and put it in Petter condl- tion for the use of the public. While they did not want to adopt this method of getting money, on the other band, well as for the security officers and fow as_trustees for the public as holders, the directors felt, that for a years, they ought mot to ignore um of money. The company can get out of this advertising privilgse enough money to buv each year ten all-steel pas- senger cars; or to buy six big steam locomotives; or to put rock ballast on fifteen miles of double track; or to put in thirty miles of the most mod- ern automatic block signals; or to pay off 6 per cent on $2,500,000 of money to be spent for Dbetterments and improvements: or to pay 300 men for working on maintenance of the track; or other improvements.
