ADVIE OFFICERS 10 ARREST TORMENTORS Court Tcls Police o “Bring W™ These Whe Abuse Him. TOWN CHARGE TAKEN TO JAIL Arthur Critchfield Was Saucy to Con- stable—Court Denies His Pleas for Clemency — Chauffcur Fined for Driving Without License.—Briefs. Orders to arrest local talent as well as visitors when they use abusive lan- guage to him were given tiis morning to Officer”Philip Muxino by both Grand Juror S. 8. Gwillim and Jus- tice ‘A. H. Condell and if the police- man follows the instructions court sessions are liable to be more numer- ous unless the deportment of a.gang of Plainville citizens shows a material improvement. The advice was given afie- a session of the court during which Arthur Critchfield of Forestville, who has been an inmate 'of the town home in Bristol for the past two years, was | fined for drukenness anl breach of | the peace. Critchfield had been with | acrowd of local youns men last eve- ning and while in an intoxicated con- dition he started to give the officer a call for huving disturbed ‘beer par- ties” in the rear of the Russell block. He thredtened to strike the officer with a cane he earried and also de- ! clared he would have hiri removed as .a policeman. Marino gave him three chances during the evening to | get out of town, but the accused re- fused and was locked up. He resist- ed arrest and gave the officer quite a struggle before he was put behind the bars. In court this morning he assumed an entirely different aspe-: and after entering a plea of guiity he begged to be let off. ' He declared that he had never been arrested before, a state- ment subsequently found to be far from correct, the accused having served severa]l terms in jail. Critch- field told the court he expected to get work soon and if a jail sentence was imposed he would be deprived of the opportunity to earn his living. ‘In view of the fact that he had spent the past two years without resorting to manual labor to et his ‘‘three squares” a day, the court was not in- clined to give much consideration to his.plea and a fine of $5 for breach of the peace and $1 for intoxication was charged, the cost to be added. Justice Condell told the accused that more respect must be shown to the officer or the punishment to be im- | posed will be increased. Critchfield made a plea for proba- tion for six weeks to give him a chance to pay up but the court re- fused and the prisoner was taken to jail. After court Officer Marino told of local people, who . had been in Critchfield’s company. They had criticised him for making the arrest and’ their language towards him was most abusive. Justice Condell and’ the prosecutor urged him to make arrests when proper respect for his position is not shown and they promised to take good care of prisoners who are arraigned for abusing him. May Bring Body Here. Mrs; Isaac B. Trumbull of Bridge- port last evening received from Sec- retary W. J.. Bryan official notification of the death of her husband, who was a passenger on the Lusitania when it ‘was sunk by a German sub- marine, Mrs. Trumbull heard Sun- day that her husband’s body had been identified, Dr. H. A. Harper of Nottingham, an uncle of the young an, having viewed his remains in one of the temporary morgues. > Mr, Trumbull's parents have a plot in West ‘cemetery .and, as, Plainville was’the young man’s home for many $years, it is expected that the remains will bé interred in this town.

Last summer but eight cents was charged and the con- sumers were expecting a similar re- duction this year. The milk dealers, however, claim that the advance in the cost of grain makes it necessary to maintain the winter, prices and 9 cents a quart will be the rule all summer. Minister May Leave Town. Rev.

Queenstown, May 11.—The number 0. woules 0L Viclims of the torpedoing of the Cunard liner Lusitania at Baltimore, a small seaport on the (g southern Irish coast, was increéased this morning to ten. Two other bodies have been brought ashore at Castle- townsend, near Baltimore. Of the ) bodies at Baltimore six are of men | and four of women, :\ The Cunard line today dispatched B a tug to Baltimore to bring all twelve | bodies to Queenstown. Relatives of survivors who had planned to leave today are going to remain over inthe hope of making further indentifica- tions. It is reported here that one of B the bodies at Baltimore had on it a [g purse bearing the name of Harrison, |[§ Main etreet, Bridgeport, Conn., and that on another there was found the |[¢ circular of a firm called Florence & | /4 Co., toothhrush manufacturers, in Connecticut.

The body of Albert Thompson of Toronto, brought in by an admiralty trawler last night, was found drifting with wreckage near the coast pot far from the scene of the Lusitania ‘)= aster, which leads to the hope fhat additional bodies may be foun#.in that vicinity. Seven unidentified: bodies also were landed at Baltimere, 47 miles southwest of Cork, - but the weather conditions are such that it is not considered probable many more will be found in that immediate vi- cinity and all hope of finding further survivors now has been abandoned. A current of from two and one half knots races around Old Head Kinsale and this has been augumented by a stiff east wind which at the end of eight or nine days may carry bodies ashore around Cape Clear on the west Irish coast. Scarcity of Life Belts. * The Cunard: Steamship company has'sent a tug to the scene of the '@isalter with instructions to run into the nearest cove and inform Cunard | officials here if even a single body is found.. There are indications that the heavy death roll among the Amer- ican men in the first cabin was due to a scarcity of life-belts, many of | them having given the life preservers they had obtained to heipless women. | There is a propohderance of testimony | that no American man got into a boat until after he had been thrown inte the water. Webb Wade, secretary of Alfred G. Vanderbilt, has not yet been able to arrange with the authorities to comply with his request that all necessary tugs be chartered at the ex- | pense of the Vanderbilt famlly to | search for other bodies as well as Vanderbiilt, Until he heard the story of Dr. Owen Kenan of New York, Mr. Wade believed his employer has entered one of the boats smashed: against the side of the ship, but Dr. Kenan's story Is so definite that it is accepted generally as the correct version of Mr. Vanderbilt's last moments aboard the ship.
