Police Arrest New York Woman at Hore of Aarcr Peck—She Claims to Be a Midwif Mrs. Clara Goldstein of New York, charged with being a fugltive from justice, was arrested Thursday noon by Captain Richmond. Mrs, Goldstein was stopping at the home of Aaron Peck, on Natchaug street, when arrest- ed. The captain received a telegram on Thursday forenoon to be on the look- out for the woman, as it was thought she was in this -vicinity. Officer Mc- Arthur chanced to see Aaron Peck on the street just before Mr. Peck was about to board a train for New York, and he asked him if he knew of such a woman, and Mr. Peck made reply that he did, and when asked if he knew where she was said that she was at hig house. Officer McArthur watched Mr. Peck get aboard the train, and then told Captain Richmond that the woman was at the Peck home. The captain went to the house and on the way saw Aaron footing it across the lots to beat him to the house. Mr. Peck had evidently left the train and thought that he could warn Mrs. Gold- stein ere the hand of the law was laid upon her, but he reckoned without the captain’s ability. In an interview with Samuel Drib- ben, from the detective bureau of New York, who came to this city Thursday evening to take the prisoner back to the metropolis on the 7 o'clock train via the Air Line, it was learled that Goldstein, who was handsomely gowned and fairly ablaze with dia- monds, is 28 years old, had been mar- ried and had two children. She is charged with abortion, which is a common thing isfher case, stated the detective. Mrs. Goldstein professes to be a midwife, and she simply came to ‘Willlmantic for a rest from her labors, being advised to do so last Friday by a Dr. Isaacs. Mrs. Goldstein said that she was In the habit of coming here esteern the of | Death of Infant Daughter.
