The Consolidated Railroad company's new pumping station at Rowsyton. which has been in course of construction for the past year, is now entirely com pleted,snd has been given a trial this week and found to work entirely satis factory. The plant is one in which all concerned in its establishing and building may just ly feel proud. The water is taken from Chasmar's pond, the capacity of which was more than doubled by the building ofa massive new dam. on a portion of which the pumping flation now stands The water is forced up by two large J. R. Worthington pumps, distill“, and delivered through a sixlinch to also-inch pipe, and thence to the immense tank situated on the blot! of the Selleck farm a quarter of a mile from the pond. This tank holds 108,000 gallons of water, which supplies the scoop basins be- tween each of the four tracks. each one capable of holding 6,581 gallons of water and also feeds three stand pipes. All the passenger trains will take water by the “scooping” process, while the freight and work trains willresort to the stand pipes. A man will be stationed at the tank to shut the water of! as soon as the scoops are full. As soon as the plant Is in fulloperation. which willbe in two or three weeks, trains will discontinue taking water in South Norwalk and Stamford. The Consolidated Railroad company's water rate in the former place amounts to nearly .2 000 a year, and it is possible that hereafter it will not amount to more than $200 or 0300. Allen Dauchey, for many years in charge of the dyeing department at A. Solmsns’ hst factory, is engineer at the pumping station. CAllliTlNli Till! nits.

A government inspector was at the poet oflice yesterday looking over the situation. Postmaster E. S. Adams showed him around. and took pleasure in exhibiting to him the building now occupied by the govern- ment. The inspector heartily favored a new location for the oilicu, or at any rate a more convenient building. lie thought it would not take much persuasion to in- duce the authorities to lit up an oflice building for the city. in a short time i’odtmaster Adams will be ready to receive bids for the contract of looking after the mai s POPULAR AIIJSI'IHISNTS.
