Rumor Has it That Change in the
Rates on the New Haven Road
is Leading Up to This Move
—Rush for Mileage Books
One change that has resulted al-
tile increase in railroad
fares which took effect June 1, is the
greater sale of mileage books. These
.are sold in two denominations—at 810
jand 3‘20 each, the former good for 500
and the later for 1.000 miles. Com-
mercial travelers and others who held
these books ill the past lost one tent
by their use between New Haven and
Bridgeport but saved two cents on
the New York and seven cents on the
Boston trip. 8) purchasing mileage
books now they can save six, eight
and 14 cents on the trips to these
cities, respectively These small sums
amount to a good deal in the course of
in year to those who travel much. Al-
NEW DONIDON, Julie 5.~The pass-
engers from the Eastern Line steamer
N’brthland, bound from New York for
Portland, Maine, which went ashore on
Bartlett‘s Reef. late. last night, were
safely landed in this city at 5 o'clock,
this morning, and a half hour later
started for Boston and Portland and a
special train. The captain and crew
of the Northland remained aboard
their ship, which is ill no immediate
danger as the Weather today is fair.
The passengers, 7?: in number, were
brought to port by the wrecking tug
Tasco, which had been summoned by
wireless to the aid of the stranded
The passengers were in a
happy frame of mind when they found

stant fear that another storm would
come up and endanger their lives.
The Northland ‘grounded on Bart-
lett's Reef. ten miles southwest of
here. about midnight last night. There
was a heavy fog over Long island
Sound and. according to members of
the crew of the tug Tasco, the North-
land for this reason, got too close to
shore. There was little alarm among
.the passengers, especially after they
learned that wireless signals for help
had been answered and a rescue boat
was on the Way. ‘
uWhend the Team reached the scene

gersa as deit had been found that the
Northland was damaged about the
bows and that. her forehold was mak-
ing water. As the fog had lifted and
together it looks as if many besides
commercial travelers would adopt the '
practice of purchasing mileage books.
There was some talk around the
station today that interstate com-
mutation tickets may be stopped
after the end of this month. At pres‘
ent these tickets at a reduced rate can
be purchased to Springfield, Boston
and elsewhere. No round trip tickets
at reduced rates have been granted
from the New Haven ill the past.

trip ticket ror'convenience sake, he is
furnished with one at the same rate
as two single trips would ('ost,
