Leonard Has to Say Con- cerning the Muddle—Facts and Near-Facts. C. N. Cummings of New Haven, who has been playing the part of the lead- ing man in the ice melodrama in this cily since Tuesday night, with head- guarters at the Hooker house, left Thursday evening for the City of Elms. He told The Bulletin represent- ative Thursday he was in full control of the ice situation in Willimantic and that he now owned the Katon ice stock, but he did not state whether or not he was in any way connected with the Berkshire Ice company of Bridge- port, to whom Mr. Eaton has sold his ice. Tuesday evening, when Mr. Cum- mings, the New Haven ice magnate, | came to Willimantic, at the request of | the mayor, as he (Cummings) states, he went with ex-Senator Gates and Mayor Dunn to interview a teaming | contractor who had the refusal of L. Ayer's 4,000 tons of ice, as the con- tractor told The Bulletin man, at $3.50 a ton. The local contractor also stat- ed that he was also considering the purchase of the ice at the municipal plant. Mr. Cummings is reported by the locan contractor to have painted a high colored picture of the possibili- ties in the local ice situation. Sub- stantially he said: “I have come to Willimantic to straighten out the dif- ficulty and am to receive $1,000 for the job, but His Honor Mayor Dunn must c in case the Willimantic teamster took hold of the project. Thursday morn- ing C. E. Leonard, who was about to | taKe the train for Worcester to learn | of ice dealers in that city the practi- | cal workings of the ice business, was met by the New Haven promoter, who told him he (Cummings) had decided | to handle the ice business himself in | the Thread City. Mr. Leonard decided | to continue on his mission to the Heart | 0f the Commonwealth, but in his own { mind practically decided to take mo | further business interest in ice for | Willimantic. Thursday afternoon Mr. | Cummings made the announcement roush the alleged organ of the Dunn | political machine that he (Cummings) | Wwas prepared to furnish Willimantic | with ice this summer at 30 to 40 cents | Haven iccman of their probable froz-n : water needs by mail at the New Ha- | ven chamber of commerce. day ! morning an article appeared a | Hartford paper, the Wiilimantic cor- | respondent being understood to be the | municipal ring’s press agent, who, re- | P in T { publicans claim, never represents the republican sentiment, of this city, mak- | t these statements: Many people are beginning to think | | that the recent actions of Fred B. | Faton and Louis N.
