14 NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 1922, POLICE BAFFLE) | esesssp— IN INVESTIGATION No Arrests Up to Present Time in Suspected Arson Case | — | The police who are working on the | mysterious fire at 61 Grove street, in the house owned by Mrs. Rose Gru- | balezyk, have so far been unable to secure enough evidence to warrant an arrest for arson. They are positive| that the fire was an incendiary one,| because of the evidences of the use | of gasoline which were collected by | Deputy Chief Barnes in the form of saturated rags and other circum- | stances connected with the affair, ! Arson Without Doubt. According to members of the squad, | i every possible clue has been run down @rd though suspiclon was cast in many directions, the evidence was in- sufficient. The fire was one of the most open arson plants” in their opinion, that has been discovered in this city. The fact that the alarm | was rung in and the fire department responded so quickly that the odor of gasoline and the soaked rags were found, proves heyond a doubt that the fire was set, but as arson is one of the hardest crimes to prove, the po- licemen feel that they must have very strong evidence on a person for an arrest. Nankues Truthful., One of the first things that Patrol- man McCue investigated was the movement of Nankues, the downstairs tenant. He told the police that he left the premises at three o'clock Wednesday afternoon and had not re- turned until next morning. He de- nied that he knew anything about the fire. He claimed that he had sent his wife and child to Manchester in the morning for a vacation with his uncle. Patrolman McCue Investigat- ed his hours put in at the factory and found that his statement that he had worked all night was correct. Mrs. Grubalezyk, when questioned, denied that she knew anything about the fire previous to the4ime that the police had told her about it Thurs- day morning. Your Men Sought. The report that four mnen had been seen to leave the premises shortiy be- fore the firc brok out has not de- | g veloped anything. No e can be found who cun give a scription of the men and the fact that they were #& seen does not give anything tangible | i to work upon. Rumors of Still. Rumors that a still had been in operation on the premiscs have been | |d investigated also, but there is little credence given to them because the vicinity of the horse and the adjoin- ing houses have been searched and nothing has been found. Besides the still would not account for the gaso- line which was found spread all around. Insurance Agents. Insurance agents are working on the case in conjunction, and it is ex- pected that there will be develop- ments in a short while. The police | BN have several more clues wiiich they do not wish to make public until they have investigated them, and a few of them are liable to lead to something. POLICE PROBE SUICIDE Boston Woman Invites Friends to Her Apartment and is Later Found Dead of Poison. Boston, March 18.—The suicide by polson of Pauline Virginia Clarke was a subject of police inquiry today. The authorities had established, they sald, that the young woman ended her life while drinking with a group of friends in her apartments. These friends included Bayard Wharton of Philadelphia, a student at Harvard college, and Otto Haldor Larsen, of Christiania, Norway, a student at Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology. Wharton has given his account of the tragedy, but the police say that Larsen disappeared soon after efforts to resuscitate Miss Clarke failed. As Pauline Herrick in 1913, she married Litut-Commander William Thomas of the Navy. She was di- vorced from him a year ago. Wharton, who h known Miss Clark> about a year, said shg had in- vited her friends to a party on Wed- nesday night, phoning him at his Harvard dormitory. She had been melancholy since her divorce and was in financial difficulties recently. Although it appears now. she set the scene for her suicide, she said | nothing to him that indicated mom- bidness that night, Wharton said. She did show him two bottles, one of ‘which she said contained perfume. The other she did not describe. Inhabitants of Anam are said to be the ugliest of the Mongolian race. Itching Eczema In Rash On Scalp Cuticura Healed “Eczema broke out on my scalp in a rash and itched and burned so that I could not help scratching, which made it worse. My hair was 80 dry and lifeless that I could not do anything with it. I tried all kinds of remedies without any relief. I sent for a free sample of Cuticura Soap and Oint- ment which helped me 8o I bought more, and after using two cakes of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuti- cura Ointment | was healed.” (Signed) Miss Hattie Hall, 74 An- thony St., S.Seekonk, Mass., July 29, 1921, Cuticura Soap to cleanse and pu- rify, Cuticura Ointment to soothe and heal and Cuticura Talcum to powder and perfume are ideal for daily toilet purposes.
