Chase of the Rowe Calk Co. of Hartford, whose plant was damaged by fire last week, spent the larger part of Saturday here, where he was shown possible sites which could be used by his company if they could be induced to locate in this city. The coming of President Chase fol- lowed the action taken by the Nor- wich Chamber of Commerce at its meeting on Friday evening. Of the sites that he saw here on Saturday, the facilities provided by the _so-called Davenport_bulilding pleased Mr. Chase with the un- derstanding that this would be _His second rhoice after a site In Hart- ford. The company has been shown a lo- cation there with which the officers are very well satisfied but it will need considerable remodeling and _other changes upon which they are getting figures from engineers and contrac- tors. If these come within a certain figure which the company has set, they will keep the concern in Hart- ford by moving it to the new location that has been shown them. If, how- ever, the expense of the change is bigher than what they have decided LIKES ONE NORWICH LOCATION Rowe Calk Co. People Favor Davenport Building—But Have Place in Hartford Which They May Take—De- pending Upon Expense of Fitting Up Factory Site in it ought to be, President Chase told the Norwich men that the Davenport building would appeal very strongly to them. The company expects to get figures on the estimates today and will com- municate again with the committee from the Norwich Chamber of Com- merce during the day. For his visit here Saturday Presi- dent Chase was brought from Willi- mantic by George W. Carroll, one of the enthusiastic members of the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Carroll went up to Willimantic for Mr. Chase in_his_automobile. By 5 o'clock the Hartford men had completed their inspection of available sites and they then returned to Mr. Carroll's office where they remained until 8.30 discussing the situation.

It's New England representative is Joseph D, Pfeiffer of this city. NOTHING HEARD SINCE HE STARTED 7 “OW No Word Received fr - Consul Zabriskie, Who Sailed April 1 from New York. Although Hon. Luther K. Zabriskie of Preston sailed from New York on the first of April on the way to Mos- cow, where he had been appointed vice consul. Not a word has been recelved from him since them and it dis not known whether he has vet reached there or is atill on the, way. The boat on which he sailed was to make its first port on the other side of the Atlantic at Copenhagen, and he had promised to write to his father, A. D. Zabriszie, from there, but no letter has been received, It is of course possible that he may have written and that the mail has been delayed in transmission and de- livery. Mr. Zabriskie is thinking of making an inquiry of the state department at Washington to see if they can se- cure for him any information of pres- ent whereabouts of his sin. He has had word from the government that Vice Consul Zabriskle has successfully passed the examinations making him eligible to appointment for consul. POLICEMAN’S DISCOVERY BALKS ATTEMRTED BURGLARY Preparations Made to Get Into Moore’s Store on Water Street. Preparations for an entrance into and probable burglary at the whole- sale fruit and produce house of James E. Moore at No. 89 Water street were disclosed and interrupted Saturday morning about two o'clock by a dis- covery made by Henry B. Fenton. The store runs through to Com- merce street and at that end where there is a door constructed of heavy slats so as to provide ventilation, the policeman found a carpenter’s horse and a stool placed so as to reach a space over the door which was wide enough to allow a man to crawl through. A search of the building by the po- licemen and by Mr. Moore who was summoned from his boarding place on Franklin street showed that no en- trance to the place had been made, the police report. The timely arrival of the policeman probably scared the would-be burglar away and balked the break that he had planned to carry out.

SUFFRAGAN BISHOP FOR " EPISCOPAL DIOCESE. Be Question Before Annual Convention in Hartford, wilt On Tuesday and Wednesday the an- nual convention of the Protestant Episcopal diocese of Connecticut is to be held at Grace church, Hartford ,and one of the prircipal matters to come up for discussion will be the naming of a suffragan bishop to assist Bishop Chauncey B.

Damage in Restaurant.

WATER SUPPLY TAINTED FROM BOG MEADOW. Department at Work to Help Situation —Some Improvement Noted. The necessity of using the water from Fairview reservoir for seven hours while the break in the Stony Brook line was being repaired a week ago Saturday is blamed by Supt .J. J. Corkery for the bad tasting water which has been elpsl:lmced in the city during the past weel The Falrview water had evidently become impregnated by the water from Bog Meadow, which it is known sometimes acquires a poor taste in the hot months from the vegetable growth on the bottom of the basin, but it is surprising that this has developed this season, when thes weather has been o cool. The last water from Bog Meadow was let into Fairview on May 22d and it is also surprising thet it should not have cleared in that time In the large basin under the influence of sunshine and air. Had it been allowed to stand in Fairview still longer before using, it would have cleared without doubt and the present unpleasant situation would have been avoided. During the past week the water department men have been at work nights clearing all the dead ends and opening all the ‘blow-offs in an effort to improve the condition of the water. Some improve- ment has resulted and it is expected that the water will be back to its nor- mal condition in & day or two more, All the supply is now coming from Stony Brook, and has been ever since the break was repatred, Incidents in Society Mrs, Mary Whiting of Otis street is visiting friends in East Hampton.
