Considered Detriment to Business to Aliow It to Continu Motorist of New London writes: Re- cently a well known New London lady and gentleman were making a tour trip through the western part of the state and in Massachusetts, in_their auto. They went up by way of Norwich, and while on the road between that city and New London were greatly discom- forted by the wretched condition of the roads. Particularly is this true this side of the termination of the macad- am and near Trading Cove, where there is an exceedingly dangerous spot, requiring filling and the _placing of guard rails. Another New London auto party came to greif there this week. While in Springfield the New London party met with another, who were touring, and the conversation turning on the roads, the Massachusetts people said, not knowing where the New Lon- rs had come from: “If you are going down through Connecticut, by all means avoid the road between Norwich and New Lon- don. It was something fierce wher we went over it. We were glad to get through with the damage that we did and consider ourselves lucky. We have warned scores of autoists from going that way, and when we meet them again they thank ns. Here is a consideration for the peo- ple of Norwich and New London who are busy dmproving business oppor- tunities for their respective towns Auto parties bring a great deal of money to towns. If they are ned to avoid bad roads, that means so much less to the cities living on these roads, It would be money in the pock- ets of New London to pay attention to the terribly bad parts of the route from here to Nor h. The attention of some prominent Norwich business men was called to the remarks of the Springfield people, and they promised to bring it up before the city and have the newspapers agitate the mat- terfi They suggested an appeal to the New London papers also. Not only is the road bad for autos, but the passen- gers on the trolleys suffer great incon- venience from the dust. It would not require much expense to put the por- tions objectionable in good shape, and it would mean a great return in com- fort, safety and traffic that gives mon- Besides this point of view, the dangerous places are likely to cause some catastrophe which-will be crim- inally at the door of the suthorities if they neglect action when notified, as they have been, of the conditions, Connecticut Patents.

Ordered from Fort Mansfield to Fort Monroe—Well Known He: The news has been received at Fort Mansfleld that the present command- ing officer, Lieut. J. S. Pratt, is reliev- ed from commanding the 88th company and will proceed to Fort Monroe, Va. This is sad news to the men of his command, as he was well liked by lh?m Lieutenant Pratt has the com- v in fipe shape for the new com- mandmg officer. Lieutenan® Pratt is like his father, General Sedgwick Pratt, who was retired after a very honorable and efficient service spent in the army as instructor at Fort Mon- roe, Va. Every man of the 89th company, C. A. C. would be well pleased if this order included the enlisted men to go with Lieutenant Pratt, but it does not. Therefore it means a éad separation of the men from their honorable com- manding officer, who will leave the fort with the best wishes of the entire command. It is & lmown fact that more than one of the enlisted men of the $8th company will change stations when their enlistment expires and join their present commanding officer at Fort Monroe, Va. The status of the fort will not be changed, as the officer who will take temporary command fs First Lieuten- ant W. O. Selkirk, C. A. C., who Is untiring and zelous in his duties and will follow the steps of the present commanding _officer, regarding the handling of the men. Captain A. H. Bryant, C. A. C., has been. assigned to ‘the '88th company, C. A. C. Hé is an officer that any company would be glad to have as its commanding officer. The order changing Lieut. Pratt will be learned with much regrot by the lo- cal companies. He was here last winter instructing both companies in the use of the equipment in conmection with coast artillery work. They found him an_excellent Instructor and were de- lighted when they learned that they were to be at Fort Mansfield with him at the tour of duty. ATTACHED HIS BODY FOR PRICE OF PROPERTY. Fred Kupky is the Owner of the Buck- ingham @Property and Furnished Bond of $2,000 to Secure His Liberty. Following the auction at the Buck- ingham property in Washington street on July & when Fred Kupky of Taft- ville purchased it for $6,200, it is claim- ed that he took his money from the bank to prevent attachment and, learn- ing this, an attachment was placed on his body for the amount of the sale by the owners of the property. Naturally he did not want to go to jail under the body attachment, 6o he agreed to fur- nish a bond of $2,000 and he secured the necessary security and was given his liberty. The property has not been resold as vet. CONTINUANCE IN FORGERY CASE Accused Claims Check Was Given Him by Two Men in & Back Yard— Does Not Deny Being Hers, but Says Someone Else Wrote the Name. In the city court on Friday morn- ing John Chemansk: alias John Smith, charged with forging the name of J. F. Conant to a check for $22.90, which was cashed by the Greek res- taurant keepers. J. Jejano and Peter Angeline of Bath street, was present- ed, but the case was continued until this morning under a bond of $200, which he could not furnish. He was not put to plea. In talking about' the matter, he claimed that he did not write Mr. Co- nant's name, but that the check was given him by two men in a back vard. He claimed that he came here to get work, having been at work in the mines in Pennsylvania. He is mar- ried. He told a story of having given the check to his boarding mistress to keep for him, but when she was pre- sented she denied anything of the kind, and he then claimed he gave it to her husband, but he is mot in town. He was also taken out in an endeavor to allow him to identify the place where he received the check, but he was unable to locate it. The check was on the Thames National bank and made payable to W. Winesky. It had an endorsement in lead pencil. It was necessary to talk with the accused through an interpreter. Little is belleved of his story im- plicating others in the matter, as the police have evidence to the contrary, it is reported. Belongs to State Secretary.
