The increase in business of the Westerly branch of the Industrial Trust company, not only in financial transactions, but in the mat- ter of safety deposit boxes, safety vault for storage of valuables, eic., has made a larger banking house necessary, as the present is entirely inconvenient and inadequate. James M. Pendleton, man- ager of the Westerly branch, and of the directorate of the Industrial Trust Sompeny. the largest of its kind in Rhode Island, after several years' ef- fort to provide adequate banking ser- vice for Westerly, has finally received definite Sgeatascs that a new banking house will replace the present in the near future. The plans have been ap- proved and the architect is to make another visit to Westerly in the near future and examine the granite town hall ang marble postoffice buildings to help the directors to decide upon the material to be used in the construction of the new building. ‘The new building will be erected on the company’'s property in High street and will cover the entire property, which means a building more than twice as large as the present brick structure. The present bullding was erected by and for the Niantic bank, a state institution, in 1855, which be- came a national bank in 1862, and a savings bank in 1870. The bank's business and property in High street, Including the bank building, was pur- chased in 1903 by the Industrial Trust company, and James M. Pendleton, ‘who was treasurer of the Mtantic Sav- ings bank, was selected as manager of the Westerly branch. A problem that has heretofore de- layed the construction of the new bullding, a suitable place, centrally lo- cated where the business could be carried on, “while the mnew banking house was being erected. has been sat- isfactorily solved. The Industrial Trust company has taken lease of the store in the Dixon house block recently va- cated by Oscar C. Stott, which will be utilized as the temporary quarters of the bank. New floor has been laid, the interior painted and will soon be in readiness for occupancy. Charles Whitman was arrested on Monday by Deputy Sheriff George H.

Fake Bicycls Race and Contestants Failed to Return. Amsterdam, Holland, August 10— How 112 Belgians escaped into Holland through a cleverly .faked bicycle race, is told in dispatobes from the frontier. A number of Liege sportsmen called on the German commandant of that district a fortnight ago, and asked per- mission to organize a bicycle race for the benefit of local war victims. The race was to be from Liege fo Mouland, on the Dutch frontier. N The commandant fell jn with the plan, only stipulating that each con- testant must wear an arm badge with the German colors and affix a small German flag to his bicycle. After some demur, the promoters of the race con- sented to the condition. The com- mandant supplied the badges and flags himself, and agreed to send a military band to the starting place. The race took place some days later. with 112 contestants. The entire countryside turned out to watch the event, and the German sentries all along the road saluted the racers as they pedalled by. But the cyclists did not etop when they reached Mouland; they continued straight on across the Duteh border, and failed to return, Winsted—Violation of automobile ordinances made business for the courts in this vicinity.
