The New Haven JournalCourier thus

present New Haven and Providence
route. via the Shore Line. and 10.67
- miles shorter than a Bridgeport-Wa-
terbury-Hartford route, which it takes
to be the'coming one to Boston. But
our friends of the Courant may be
wrong in their conclusion that the
new Waterbury route will pass
through Bridgeport and up the Nau-
gatuck valley. The railroad olicials
have assured the public, at any rate,
that the new route will be 26 miles
shorter and that would seem to pre-
clude Bridgeport truth the itnerary

day vouchsafod the information that
