Hitters to he Considered Tonight.

The public hearing to be held at Arion
Hall, Monday night, to consider electric
road matters, and to get an expression
Irons the people, promises to be one of
great interest. as there will undoubtedly
has free and lively discussion. For the
[In few days this matter has been
blight prominently to the minds of the
people. Tn: Sunrises has printed com-
munications from both parties, and line
from the Tramway company appears in

. thbissue.

Therearethcse who are strongly op-
posed to the Street Railway company
pitting tracks under the railroad bridge,
find others who strongly favor it. Some
0! these parties are largely interested
moisrily in ha 3 the tracks gounder
the bridge, so there equally interested
oppose it

spa/Siam“ the general opinion is that

“reopening under the bridge should be
be“ free from tracks. and that the
Street Railway should go to the new
~ ltliicna by another route.

The City Council have taken the posi
Hon that neither company should crdss
the streets under the bridge and have
done what they could to ha‘yo the matter
loft with the Council. Resolutions have
been passed at a city meeting‘laustaining
the Council and opposing the putting of
tracks under the bridge. The meeting
tonight is called by the Council, and the
question will heopcn for till parties to
be heard.

The Council's position is that nogtracks
dtould he placed under the bridge ex-
cept by consent ol the Council, and the
Council isopposed to streets under the
bridge being crossed by either the Street
Railway or Tramway, at pumenl at least.

The Sam Railway_company wants to
go under the bridge and obtain joint
tracksge on South Main and Monroe
streets to the stations. The Tramway
company opposes this and does not ask
to go under the bridge, although it has a
charter to do so.

The legislative committee divided and
made majority and minority reports, ths
majority report giving the street nail
way company what it asked for, the
minority report keeping both companies
from going under the bridge. in order

slsary to have resolutions favoring one

' Another Letter From hamsry Iansllald

to Chairman lill.

Mr. E Hill. (.‘hm'rnmu Executive Com-
mittee, Norwalk Street Railway Com-
pany:

Is it possible that the person who signs
himself E. Hill to an article in Tim Sari
’i'lb'lll. published klay 22, and to whom I
address this through Tau SENTihtLfi that
polished, trim, tine-looking gentleman
we all know and respect as Eben Hill?
I always had unbounded faith, trust and
confidence in Eben Elli, but liberally
is the author of that misleading and
childish letter, Ihave lost my faith in
him. It isa sort of Dr. Jekyl and Mr.
Hyde. ‘

With a good deal of flourish and
grandiloquence he asks me to study the
private acts of the General Assembly.
Would it not have been more courteous
olhim to have verified his own state-
ment? In the letter which I wrote in
answer to the published interview of the
leading olllcial of the Street Railway
company. I quoted from a certified copy
of the same. which clearly indicated
that I had looked them up, Sincel
have seen Mr. Bill's communication I
have been to Hartford and lboked them
over again and find that I was right. and
am forced to believe that the leading
oflicial made a most misleading state-
ment when he said that the Norwaik
Street Railway company had acharter
to Gregory’s Point. The facts are as fol-
lows: A party of men organized a com-
pany known as the Gregory Point Horas
Railroad company. which was incorpo-
rated June 13. 1870. This charter was
never accepted by the incorporatosu and
the clerk or the secretary of state tells
me that it never came into existence. as
he has no record of the acceptance of
such a charter. However, on July ‘27,
1871, an amendment was obtained which
gave the iucorporators two years from
the rising of that Assembly to build in.
This would bring it to 1873. We all
know that nothing was done. The
charter expired in 1874. I met A. B.
iiiil in Hartford, Thursday, May 28, and
he informed me that thc Norwallr Ilorse
Railroad company purchased this charter.
The cat was now out of the bag, and it
is from this fact that the leading ofllclai
claims that his company owned a
charter to Gregory Point. Why did they
not build. There was alm‘iluteiy nothing
in the way as my information on the
bridge lyiios'iuli shows. It looks mile
all if the ”Wilma if tho Notifilh Street
Railway company had a pretty general
monopoly of the whole town of Norwalk
in thesirset railway business for thirty
years or more.

As to the East Norwslk crossing:
Without any attempt to indulge in facts

him, he contemptuously tells me to ask

mau. and what is their answer? lielect-
men Raymond, told me today that to the
best of his knowledge and belief the

the Norwalk Tramway runs. was built
in leeilur 1870. over twenty‘lln years
ago. Helsctstan Daskam, whom I tele-
phoned to this afternoon. asking him to
look up the matter of this bridge. did so,
I trust. for he subsequently answered ms

power. would take them to theses shore
as well as in any other way. a sugges-
tion or this kind by me not with s most
vigorous protest from one of their direc-
tors. We should be happy to consider
some such proposition for their benefit.
but all propositions necessarily have cer-
tain considerations to them, and it takes
some time (or companies to get together.

Mr. Hill speaks of the Street Railway’s
propoartion. I do not yet know what
their proposition is. If they have one is
it not business to address as a letter
either asking for an opinion or interview?
As yet, they fear to gust their proposi.
tlon to writing. for Tramway has not
received a written word from them. Mr.
Hill said that at least three representa-
tives of his company had made it to me.
If such double-handed, incomplete man-
ner in which he makes his propositions
is to he considered as made in good faith
and business like, cttainly I, asan oili-
cial of the Tramway company,do not
understand what his proposition is. Nor
could any gentleman. It looks very
simple as he has got it printed, but I
doubt very much it the directors of the
road would authorize the president to
sign a contract with the Tramway com-
pany upon the phrassology which
he has published. Mr. Winthrop
l1. Perry, the attorney for the
company, stated to me his version of the
Street railway‘s proposition, which was
different from any other I had ever
heard. Now. it Mr. Bill as a business
man will draw out a proposition in the
shape ofan agreement. which he will
sign and submit tons, he will get an
answer inside of twenty-four hours, and
the matter can be brought to a cdnclu»
aion. but to keep on insinuating that
propositions have been made, when we
consider that in a business sense they
never have been made, will never bring
us nearer together. We presume, how-
ever, that what lse calla propositions
serves as excellent thunder for. him to
use at Hartford.

He says: "We will agreeto give you
a monopoly for live years." What does
he mean by this? I am sure I do
not know. It certainly looks as though
it wasastatenent to agree to a post-
ponement of the wrecking of the Tram-
way wmpany, which he is attempting.
for five years. We must confess that
such postponement is not in accordance
with our ideas or inclinations. I do not
understand the allusion to E J. Bill be
ing generous to me. This I cannot
grasp. I am aware that he has the repo-
tation throughout the community of be-
ing a yory generous man. Whatever
generosity he has displayed towards me,
I am deeply grateful for. lint I am
afraid that if it were treated mathemati-
cally, I should land with a great big
minus sign before me.

In regard to his statement concerning
my oifering the Tramway company for
sale. I again desire to state that I never
uttered the Tramway company tor sale
to Mr. E. llill. 1 state it emphatically,
ton.
lie welcomes me to the town as a reel-
dent. For this bit of piraaantry I am in-
dead profoundly pleased. However, by
his actions. I am forced to view it. as fol-
lows: Whenarnan comes into a com-
munity. and puts his money into said
community. honestly. in a way that de-
velopes it. helps it and upbulllls it and
thsnto have some of its citizens turn
round and try to rob him. he must cer-
tainly look with suspicion upon any wel~
comesxtended by such individuals. It
is not to the credit of the town that such
men exist in it. and if i judge aright the
citizens do not applaud such action.
Towns are usually very glad to get oul~
aids capital into local enterprises which
add to their prosperity and development.
Such is the chief purpose of local boards
allude. It. E. Hill is at the class that
seem at and insults capital which comes
toin town. if we were the rule and
