William Gould, 17 Years Old, Admits Petty Burglaries at Best View. William Gould of Quaker Hill, 17 vears, confessed to 25 burglaries on Thursday morning after he had been arrested on a charge of burglary. The boy was arrested by State Policeman Theodore F. Downing and Constable Richard Muicahey of Guaker Hill. The arrest followed a complaint by Attorney John J. Lawless, whose house was entered recently. All the burglaries to which Gould confessed were in Quaker Hill and the Best View section and all were of a petty nature, nothing of much value being stolen in any of the places. Residents of Quaker Hill and the surrounding section have been annoyed considerably of late by their houses being entered and burglarized, but lal of the burglaries were of a trifling na- ture. In most cases women's clothing was stolen and either thrown away or left where it <ould be recovered. In only a few cases was any money stolen and these were trifling sums, consist- ing mostly of a few cents. Govld was presented before Justice of the Peace Morris Lubchansky in| Quaker Hill Thursday morning. Prob- able cause was found and the boy was bound over to the superior bonds of $300. court in NAVY YARD RESIDENT BEFCRE JUDGE LATIMER. Newton Perkins Charged With Assault By His Wife.

Postmasters from cities and towns in the Second Congressional district foregathered at the Crocker house, New London, Wednesday for the an- nual outing and luncheon and had with them as guests men of promin- ence, including Hon. Homer S. Cum- mings of Stamford, the probably dem- ocratic nominee for United _ States senatorship; Judge James A. Gray of New York, one of the best known at- torneys In that city; Major John_ K.

The party numbered about 5 An informal reception preceded luncheon, which was serveq at two! o'clofis in the main dining room. The tables, arranged in the form of a hol- . were beatuifully decorat- roses and foliage.

As a result of his skilled management this nation is at pease, while all the other principal countries of the world are at war. It is idle for republicans to criticise de- tails when they are in reality oblized to commend the results, all of which plead eloquently for the reelection of Wilson. “We are living in the most troubled period in the history of the world. It would indeed be the most amazing stupldity if in such a period the peo- ple should substitute for trieq leader- ship that of a candidate who is unable even with the use of hindsight to formulate a constructive policy or make clear what he would have done if the responsibility had been his. “A a member of the democratic national committee I can truthfully state that every man in that orgap- ization is absolutely confident of the reelection of President Wilson by an overwhelming majority. I may add that Connecticut will witness a dem- ocratic campaign such as the old Nut- meg state never saw before and that the most complete political organiza- tion in its history will be effected.” Speechmalking of a highly interest- ing character continued until well along in the afternoon.

CHIEF STANTON PRESENTS REPORT AT CONVENTION Contains Many Facts and Figures of Nationwide Interest. As chairman of the commi ways and means whereby @ sprinkler system may be used to b advanage by fire departmeats as fire defense auriliaries, Howardq I.. Stan- ton, chief of the Norwich fire ment, presented the commit port at the hursday session of the I ternational Association of Tire gineers’ annual convention in Provi- dence, R. I. The report was accepted and at the request of the chalrinan. who spoke in behalf of the moembers of the committee, the commitiee was continued for another yea: on the committee with Chi are Chief Frank G. Reynold Ga.; Chief C. W. Ringer, Chief August Gerstung, N. J.; Chiet John H. Espey, Elmira, N. Supt. Salvage, Corps. J. o way, Cineinnati; T. G. Toomey, Chief Fire Protection, Filene Co. Boston. The report covers ten typewrittcn pages and is complete and compbrhen- ve. A summary of the reports foi- en in New York in Avril 1 thought it would be a good thing to see some sprinkle experts concerniag the works of our committee. I called on Mr. Ira G. Hoagland, an I. A, I. E associate member, who has been asso: clated for many years with autoatis sprinller engineering. Mr. Hoagland susgested that the committee send out printed questiow sheets together with X stamp2d en- velopes for their retur: to tne L A. F. E. members and in that way get working knowledge of fire de ment practices. The commitlee agrecd that it would be a good thing fo s out the question blanks. Six nazr were put into the mail on July 19. The facts, the responses tn the question sheets developed are as fol- low. That for the most part sprinkler systems have fire department steawncr connections. That while a big majority of those responding thus far to the questi sheets profess to use steamer con: - one-half of this number the tions, only representing only 40 per cent. total of sprinkled bulldings in te tories where the connections are*u: follow an unconditional practice of a yatching hose to fire department con: nections of sprinkler systams when responding to alarms of fire in sprinklered buildings. That only two citles heardi from thus far, Chicago and Milwaukee, ac- o tually have a rule concerning tic use of sprinkler systems fire artment connections. That there is a sentiment in favcr of a rule governing the fire depart- ment use of those connections That while in the jurisdiztion of the 37 per cent, who do not use ccn- nections are only 17 per cent of the total number of springiered buil¢ reported (most of them have less 50 systems each) it is imporcant that this minority give consideration to the practices of the maporci-y who use these connections. That while the mapority of respons- es received report it Is required that water shall not be shut from sprinkler heads until it has been definitely found out that the fire is under con- trol, 18 per cent in whose territories are 16 per cent of the sprinklered buildings, report to the contrary and those few might well give ear to what Chief Boughner of Grand Rapids said. We take no chances. It would ce tainly be a ftal mistake to do other- wise. Several cases reported in the July 1916 Quarterly of the National Fire Protection Association, show that it is a fatal mistake to do otherwise. “A fire in a woodworking plant started in the basement and opentd 22 sprinklers on the first story. The public fire department laid in hose streams and used cellar pipes through holes cut in the floor. Thinking they had the fire under control, the chief of the fire department orderea water shut off the sprinklers. A trap door in the floor was then opened, which action was followed by a rush of flame up through this opening and through a belt opening in the floor nearby in the center of the mill. The flames worked up alongside a wooden post, spreading up through the cracks in the floors above to the third story Fortunately two men had been kept at the controlling valve of the sprinkler James Sweeney, Edward M.

Although every sprinkler in the top story opened, the actual burning was confined to a space about 50 feet square on the roof. The fire was s0on under control since the _sprinkler system was well supplied with water. The loss amounted to about $5,000 whereas had the sprinklers not been shut off too soon, it probably would had amounted to only a few hundred dollars. Many of the worst losses in sprin- klered properties have been caused by shutting off the water from the sprinkler system before the fire was completely under control. But the most serious fact of all is the following: That 27 per c ing to the que: the smaller systems to fused of those respond- (most of them in do mnot require in commissicn, heads replaced, and water before all firemen return cit be vear, there have been several considerable fires in sprinkler- ed properties because fires have re- kindled after the firemen had return- ed to quarters without seeing to it that the sprinklers were put back in- to_commission.
