Falling at the rate of an inch an hour, the miniature blizzard, swirled by stiff north east winds, started shortly after noontlme yester- day and continued until early morn- ing. Traflic conditions are bad within the city. Automobiles are havin great difficulty in travelling through the only partially cleared. streets. Scores of machines stalled during the morning hours On the main streets blocking traffic. 'This was particularly true in the First Dials-let. The snow storm was marked local- ly by an extraordinary and successful battle waged against the driving snow by the Connecticut company. Early yesterday afte oon. six snow plows and an emerg cy crew of a. score of men were started at work clearing the snow from the trolleys by Thomas Machan, Superintendent of the Nor- walk Division of the Connecticut company. measures. the trolleys Were . kept moving nearly on schedule time dur- ing the night and this morning as well. In some cases there were sight delays, but for the most the delays were caused by [patc- moblies becoming stalled in the trol- ley tracks. The snow fell steady for nearly twelve hours. About midnight haw- ever. the flying flakes had greatly softened. The snow was followed by cloudy weather with a drop in the temperature. W’llton. Westport and Norwalk. to- gether with Darlen were free from any trouble on the telephone service‘ as a. result of the storm.

Briefly the P. U. C. is to draw up a draft of the proposed changes in the fare situation in Norwalk, and pre- sent the same to both city oflcla'ls and omciais of the Connecticut company for their approval. This will 'be a matter of form, it is expected, as both sides seemed .to agree that this. change would be acceptable to them. This will mean that should a pas- senger get on a West avenue trolley car, he will depoait five cents for his fare for the ride between South Non walk and Norwalk centre. Should he wish to go to East avenue. he will deposit a. token instead of a five cent fare and receive wtransfer. The ride will cost him 8 1-3 cents as the tokens are to be sold 12 for 31. If he has no token and wishes a transfer he will be compelled to pay an extra nickel for the ride. According to the understanding of tile mattef‘yesterdayia person will be enabled to ride from Winnapaok to the end of the Dorlon Point find. or to Baton Point. for the price of one fare. New Rates To Be 81-3 Cents And To Be Used Hartford Hearing Again Determines That There Is to Be No Increase on'the West Avenue Line. The five cent. fare on West avenue will be retained. This was decided, although the order to that efiect has not been entered as yet, at the conference of Connecticut company oflicials, Norwalk city'ofiicials’ and members of the Public Utilities Commis- yesterday morning and afternoon The branch line fares will be raised, to 8 1-3 cents—by the use of a token-or ten cents without the token, but no date has been set I l. e, a. token, or vice versa. Mayor Calvin L. Barton. Corporau tlon Counsel W'illiam F. Tammany. V. W. Ferris and A. E. Winchester were present at the hearing yesterday, representing Norwalk. as officials and ,citizens. President Lucius S. Storrs represented the Connecticut company, together with other officials. One important thing that was take en-up was the matter of the half fare for school children, including High School pupils. This will be at half of the token rate. The half fare does not apply at; present. as a straight five cent fare is observed on the various lines of the city. ,. The adoption of the token system. or the three-for-a—quarter ride. is in with the hearing held here last wealth, when such a plan was suggest- ed.
