Brown of Westerly, as Bradford is within the police jurisdiction of the town of Westerly, Chief Brown went to Bradford Tues- day and made a thorough investigation of all the circumstances of the case, and is satisfied that the robbery was committed by persons familiar with the premises and with the regular tour of duty of the watchmen at the big plant. in Westerly. He attended the public schools of Westerly, going from here to the Sheffield institute. He was grad- uated from Brown university and was ordained to the Baptist ministry.

New England and Canada to the West Indies, Panama Canal | ™ and West Coasts of North and South America, HAROLD I SMITH, NELSON 1. SMITH, President and General Manager. Secretary and Treasurer. CHARLES 0. GWATKIN, General Trafic Manager. From the new ocean gateway of New England, t.he deep and commodious harbor of New London, Connecticut The Royal Blue Steamship Company' will operate a line of high class passenger and freight steam- ships to the PANAMA CANAL and the WEST INDIES, con- necting with other steamship lines to the WEST COASTS of North and South America. A weekly tropical fruit serv- ice, first from the Island of Jamaica, bringing bananas to the port of New London for distribution in New England and Canada, will be established. The terminal of the company will be the Central Vermont { Railway dock in New London, the terminus of the Grand | Trunk Railway System of Canada in New England, and ad- joining the tracks of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, a combination of passenger, freight and tropical fruit handling facilities unequalled on the Atlantic coast. Economic and adequate connections with the railroads of New England and Canada will result in vast quantities of profit making freight and full complements of passengers for the | steamships being diverted from old channels to this natural and shortest route from Canada and New England to the Panama Canal, the West Indies and the West Coasts of North | and South America. In the prompt, efficient and economical | handling of the tropical fruit the company’s terminal, with the railroad tracks running alongside of the steamships, is not equalled by any other port. | i | The remarkable financial success of companies already {engaged in the importation of tropical fruits to the United States is of common knowledge and in this department alone, conservative estimates of the earnings of The Royal Blue Steamship Company show an amount sufficient in itself to assure large dividends to the stockholders. The amounts received by the stockholders of one company during the last five years equal a dividend of forty-eight (48) per cent. for each year. It is believed that the passenger accommodations of the high class steamships to be secured by the company will be taxed to their full capacity by tourists who desire to visit the Panama Canal and the West Indies. Last season there were not sufficient steamships to carry all those who wished to go and this year all companies are preparing for an unprecedent- ed exodus to “The Summer Seas.” At a reasonable rate of fare this department will be highly productive of revenue which will swell the earnings for the benefit of the stock- holders. An average of more than 2,500 tons of freight destined for ports reached by the steamships of the company can be handled efficiently each week and at the present tariffs the income from outward cargoes will be very great. Confer- ences by the General Traffic Manager have resulted in assur- ances being given that enough freight will be offered the company to practically fill the steamships. At the present time indications are that the company will be obliged to charter additional freight steamships to reap this rich financial — | harvest. To be conservatively managed by New England men of high business standing this new and thoroughly independent steamship company, already assured of a heavy volume of business for all of its departments, should appeal as an in- vestment of great desirability. From those persons who be- lieve in the advancement of the business interests of South- ern New England and especially Eastern Connecticut, the purpose of The Royal Blue Steamship Company can receive but a prompt and hearty endorsement.
