Earl May and Truman Brown of New London, two railroad men, were placed on trial in the criminal supe- rior court Tuesday morning charged with breaking and entering a freight car of the New Haven road last De- cember. This is the second time they have been on trial, their case having been partially heard in January and discontinued because of the illness of a juror. May and Brown were formerly em- ployed by the New-Haven road in New London, the former as vard clerk in the Fort Neck yard office and the latter as a brakeman on a yard switcher. On Dec. 6, 1915, it is alleged that they broke into and entered a freight car in the Fort Neck yard and broke into several cases of freight. The following jury was selected to try the case: Almarin T. Hale. New London; Delmore P. Carter and .Charles’ P. Fitch, Groton: Heramn J. Holdredge, Stonington; Frederick W. Chapel and William L. Webster, Mont- ville; Latham E. Smith, Ledyard: ‘Wil- liam H. Moore and Willis E. Miner, Waterford; James L. Lord, Lyme; William_A. Roberts, East Lyme, and George F. Clark, Old Lyme. After the jury was empaneled State Attorney Hull told the court that the May and Brown trial was to be the last of the term and the jurors who were not empaneled on the present case were excused by Judge Reed for the term. The trial was then started, Attor- wey Thomas E, Troland assisting State Attorney Hull, and Attorney George C-‘Morsan defending the accused, Mar. tin Kane of Proyidence, special agent for the New HAven, was called as the first witness and_told about the loca- tion of the Fort Neck yard, its tracks, told of the duties of a yard clerk and described the process of sealing a car affer it is loaded and is about to be sent to destination. Saw, Freight Car Entered. He then proceeded to “tell to the court the story of the discovery of the two accused In the freightggar —He said_that there has been erable trouble in looting of freight cars and ne was assigned on duty in this vicin- ity. The witness stated that he was in the Fort Neck yard between tracks 6 and 8 at a point south of the Hamilton ‘the car and leoked in. mmrnmamubnmm“w-. RAILROAD EN PLAGED ON TRIAL | Earl and Truman Brown Facing Criminal Court on Charge of Breaking and Entering Freight Cnr—Montyflle Man street trestle about 2.15 on the after- noon of Dec. §, when he saw May and Brown, both of whom he knew, coming down the track toward him. Both were . fecling the seals of freight cars over as they went along. Then he saw them stop in front of a freight car and one of them broke the seal May shoved the door open and Brown jump- ed into the car. Kane then saw May looking up and down the track and after a while he got into the car. The witness walked back toward the car and stopped be- tween two cars next to the one in which were May and Brown. ' He stayed there and listened and he heard the men in the car breaking some- thing open. After listening about five minutes he walked up to the door of He could see May stooping over and breaking a box open. Brown was toward the end of the. car, where the witness could not see him. The witness had been standing there for a few seconds when May—turned around toward the open door of the car. His arms were full of articles, but when he saw Kane he dropped them. The witness asked him “what he was doing and May answered “Nothing.” Then Kane called Brown out and asked him the same question and he replied that he was doing noth- ing. Then Browm said “You got me right this time. I've been railroading long enough to know better. If you hadn’t come along just then, it would probably have been worse. Then both May and Brown pleaded with him not to arrest them. Kane ordered them both to get out of the car, which they did, and he got in. While they stood on the ground, he examined the interior of the car and found several cases broken open. One of the cases contained Larkin com- pany’s supplies, consisting of soap, ete. In the places where both May and Brown were at- work he found two axes, but the witness only took one out, which was produced in court as evidence. When he came out both the accused pleaded with him again not to do any- thing to them and he told them “Noth- ing doing.” There had been so much Dbreaking into freight cars around there and he couldnt' do it. Then he or- dered them back to work and their arrest followed.

New Haven Expert Will it City This Week to ‘Look Over Local Sit- uation. City Health, Officer Dr. Edward. J. Brophy has secured P. L. Buttrich of New Haven, an expert on the extermi- nation of mosaiiitoes, to look over tiié local situation of draining pends:and like places which form breeding places for mosquitoes. ‘Mr. Buttrich has made -a special study of drainage and in filling ponds. He has. done extensive.worlk through- out the state, -especially at the-mouth of the Connecticut river at Saybrook, where the lowlands and meadows were drained, and in that way.eliminating the mosquito. It is a well known fact that a certain variety of mosquitoes | cyc transmit malaria. It carries the germ and by a bite injects ‘the germ into one’s system. There has, been & num- ber of complaints in this' city of mos- quitoes carrying -malaria and ‘it is known that there is a pond 6n -Rock- well street which is ‘in a bad condi- tion and is considered a breeding place. There is undoubtedly -many other: like places in the city, and the pnly way to tackle the question is to eliminate the mosquito. In view of the coming cleump week, Dr. Brophy has sent gu—t the following notices: Help wanted—to make our homes safe and sanitary. To make our town heal- thy and prosperous.

NEW LONDON STRIKERS’ CASES ARE CONTINUED’ Bonds Placed at $200 Each by Judge Coit On Tuesday Three striking shovelers, arrested Monday and Tuesday for intimidating men at work, were araigned in the police court Tuesday at New London. Their cases were continued until Sat- urday,~May 27, to observe their con- duet in the meantime. The three men were Anlomo Do- nato, Mauro Zito and Raffaele Pet- trini. In continuing the cases Judge Coit fixed bond in each case at $200. Pasquale Pace went surety, for Zito and R. Geraci for Donato. Louis J. Dondero, who went surety for Pet- trini when the latter was arrested Monday, was willing to continue the cash bond, but as real estate bond is demanded he was unable to go surety for Pettrini. A bondsman was secured in a short time and all three men were released. Judge Coit, in continuing the case, said the final disposition will depend largely upon the way in which the men deport themselves. The judge declared the request of Prosecuting Attorney Daniel M. Cronin for con- tinuance wise and reasonable and acquiesced in it redily. Donato and Pettrini were arrested Monday after an Italian speaking state policeman had overheard them in Italian threaten laborers if they didn’t drop work. The other man was arrested Tuesday morning by Special Officer Frank W. Decker after making 2 like threat. This morning. the courtroom was filled when the cases were taken up. A big crowd of Italians, principally hotise. Officers Nagle and Hammond strikers, gathered outside the station were on duty at the entrance and made sure that those going up into the courtroom didn’t carry and dan- gerous weapons. ;. B JOHN C.
