The annual report of the board of di-
rectors of the lIousatonic Railroad Com-
pany made to the stockholders to-day is
out in pamphlet form. In submitting
tho abstract of the auditor on the finan—
cial conditioi’i of the road, Vice-President
and General Manager Wm. H. Stevenson
calls attention to certain facts of inter-
est, of which the following areusum-
mary: For the fiscal year ending Sept.
30, 1888. the surplus amounts to $76,983:
91; during the year the old prefer-
red stock has been adjusted and finally
settled; extraordinary expenses have
been incurred, providing for increased
business, in improvements at Wilson's
Point; a branch road has been run from
Botaford to Huntington touching the
New Haven 28’. Derby railroad; three new
engines have been added to theer‘jutpment
with two new combination cars, ten new
passenger cars and two new drawing-
room cars; the truck and road- bed have
been improved and the Bethe! branch
re-laid entirely with new rails; two new
iron bridges have been erected on the
mainline, and new iron girder bridges
at several points on the Dunbury 2!: Non
walk division: the West Stockbrid‘ge
railroad has been purchased, as the leas-
ing of the road was at a disadvantage to
the Housatonic Co. The schedule of
rolling stock shows It total of thirty-
six engines, ninety passenger coaches,
of all kinds, and 1,186 freight
and other working cars. The amount
of freight carried was 503,171 tons com-
pared with 348,614 in 1881, and 452,724 in
1877. The number of passengers carried
was 1,021,625, an excess of about ninety
thousand over any previous year. The
total receipts for the year were $1,087,.
413.41, the operating expenses $645,747.-
02, and the net earnings $141,030.39. Ad-
ding the surplus for the year to that ex-
isting up to Sept. 30, 1888, and tho total
surplus is $442,487.94, which certainly is
very satisfactory showing. The General
Manager states the interesting fact that
the blizzard of March 12 last was 22 dir.
ect loss to the company of $13,023.67 and
probably as much more through the sus-
pension of traffic and loss of revenue.

Bridgeport is to have another manufac-

1 new organ factory at West End, Bridge-
port, has been hired for the new business.
The firm backing the enterprise is one of
the largest and wealthiest manufacturing
concerns in the world. The Standard
says: “Their work here will be the fin-
ishing of goods for the American market
and they wil begin just as soon as they
can get their machinery in motion. They
occupy 15,000 square feet of space, and
hope to be running soon after January
I, 1886. The new tenements now in pro-
cess of completion at the West End will

demand which the accession of popula-
tion in that district will create. And so
the ball rolls up."
