Monday morning Chief Brown and Policeman Curtin went to Norwioh and returned with Lul& Gancerella and Jimmy Cofon: 8 two men who really 16d in the assault upon Officer Qurtin Bunday, as told in Monday' Bulletin, Policeman Curtin in speaking of the affair said that he had = suspiolon that there was a kitchen bar room in Pond street, and that he was watch- ing uzup!wt n:.um u :huunu wh;;l h‘; naw Gan o young touj Yoo Seed .

They were intoxicat- od and went down the street and into Canal street singing and shouting, and Ithw stopped in front of Turano's sa- oon. Policeman Curtin told the gang that they must stop making noise. He noticed Luigui Gancella putting his hand in his hip pocket, and knowing the character of the fellow, the officer took hold of him, and told him he was under arrest. Fred Grebella grabbed te ofMcer's nand; and the officer push- ‘ed him awvay and knocked him down with his club. . Luigul passed one of the most dangerous blackjacks known to the police department to George Grebella, and Policeman Curtin wrest- ed it from him. It is a roller of a wringing machine, composed of. an iron rod covered with rutber. With the exception of a tuft of rubber at the end surrounding 4n iron bolt, the rub- ber sad been paved down and shaped iuto o handle. A blow from that weapon meant death. From the time the officer placed Luigl under arrest he und the others fought him like de- mons. They succeeding in releasing Tnjei, >olicernan Curtin undaunted made a tempt to arrest Luigl Can- 1 nd again he was viclously at- ed by the four men. He got the sters around Luigul’s left wrist, and endeavoring to fight the others off with his club, when Luigt got the of- ficer's fore-finger of the right hand in his mouth and commenced to chew it 2 la bull dog: All this time the officer was being struck and kicked by the four men. One of them, Cofone, managed to get the officer’s club and struck him in the head with it. The officer throttled young Gancerelia and forced himi to release the bleeding finger, and then the officer tackled Co- fone, ‘secured his club, and again started for the leader, Luigi Ganercella, but the four managed to escape. Po- liceman Curtin received several body bruises and his legs bear marks of the vicious kicks of his adversaries. Luigl Gancerella is ‘just about old enough to vots, and said with pride: “I never killed anybody yet, so_they ain't got anything on me. I did not have the bianck jack and they can't prove it on me” His cousin George Is from New York, here on a visit. Ga- brella and Cofone have resided ins Westerly several years. At a special session of the Third district court Monday evening before Judge Alby H. Williams, the _four young fellows were arraigned. Fred- erick Clebello was the first called.

Clark, on the charge of embezzlement. Mr, Clark has been a_rural free delivery carrier from the Westerly post office sixteen years, and, so far as the pub- lic knew, was a faithful carrier of the mail. His arrest was upon war- rant sworn out by post office_inspec- tors, who allege that Clark had re- ceived money from patrons for money orders, giving his receipt for same. He evidently delayed the purchase of the orders, using the money, and mak- ing good later when money came to him legitimately. It 4s not belleved that he has taken a very large amount of money and converted it to his own use, that he has not replaced. His accounts are correct with the local post office. Mr. Clark was taken to Providence and will be arraigned be- fore the United States commissioner. i At the annual meeting of the West- erly Catholic club. President James M.

He was one of the best judges of horse flesh in eastern Connecticut and was well known by horsemen in this and neigh- boring_states. In 1877 he married Helena Wenberg, who survives him.

Look back a li Dbit. .A.tsny-n-xoths storm raged around the Cadillac. e < A dogzen or more cars sold at approximately the same price > All claimed equality with the Cadillac. g The Caedillac fleld was the coveted fleld—because it was a quality field. These dozen or more cars struggled to find a place in it, because they . were eager to share in Cadiliac success, g i . And now how do things stand? s A Timited market above the Cadillac in price—and a large market below. And in the center, as solid as a rock, the great Cadillac clientele— greater and stronger and more solid than ever. When you search for & car to compare with the Cadillac, do you look iy It 18 not likely, ‘And yet many a man in past years hds thought that he was buying & i car as good as the Cadillac, because he was paying an approximate lce. Tio Bamgpt think that now, because thess cars have Felnioved them- selves from the Cadillac field. The storm that once raged around the Cadillac still rages—but it is in another zone. The Cadillac is out of it, and above it. ~ In its own &reat quallty class the Cadillac stands alone—all lone. The Cadillac owner does not believe that its equal exists. And if you are looking for its equal—where will you look? You must first find a car of equally fine constructhon. if you search for equality with the Cadillac, where else will you find such workmanship? Again—in your search for a car equal to the Cadiliac, you must find a_car of equal experience in V-type engine construction. The Cadillac has brought the V-type principle to o state of compata- tive perfection in the building of many thousands of V-type éight- cylinder cars. Where will you look for a like experienco—for equal certainty—for such positive insurance? ‘What is the utmost you desire in a car? Your friend who owns a Cadillac already has it. Where else could you get them? He cannot think Of any respect in which its efficlency could be ime proved. In freedom from gear shifting, in ease of control, in swift acceleration, in hill climbing ability, in comfort and luxury, in all the things which contribute to ideal motoring, the Cadiliac owner will tell you that he has them in superlative degree. In his mind—in your mind—in the mind of the nation—is not the standing of the Cadillac absolutely fixed? In all the things which constitute quality—the highest known quality— is it not universally accepted as a standard? Your choice, therefore, is rendered simpler than ever before. You are freed from the distraction of many clalms of equality which may once have confused you. [You know what the Cadillac offers: —engineering pre-eminence. —and social pre-eminence, —unequaled V-type experience. —the enthusjistic endorsement of many thousands of owners —mechanical construction representing the highest type ot fine manufacturing extant. —and an _established record of luxury, long life and endurance. We repeat—you KNOW that you get these qualitios in the Cadillac. ‘Where else could you get them? New London THE A. C. SWAN CO.
