He and a companion fortunately escaped uninjured, but the automobile was badly damaged by the impact. Cintalon testified driving about 26 miles an hour and that he was |the accident would not have hap- pened had the motorman stopped the trolley car, which he claimed he had ample time to do.

While his injuries are very painful, it is not thought they will have serious results, but the officer will be unable to resume duty for several weeks. Seargeant Feeney was driving the car on an investigation of a report that the occupants of two cars were acting suspiciously and Patrolman Cosgrove leaped out as the lights on the cars were secen to flash and the engines start, as though a getaway vas about to be made. Sergeant | Feeney picked ugf the patrolman and | hurried him to New Britain General hospital. He was stunned by the fall on the pavement and it was feared he had internal injuries, but X-ray pictures falled to disclose any. Patrolman Consgrove is a well | known member of the police force. Several years ago he was a super- numerary officer, but resigned only to be reappointed a fey years later. On January 28, 1924 he was promot- ed to the regular force. For a time he was on plain clothes duty in the detective bureau but for the past several months has been on a night beat. His father, Officer Michael J.
