Goudreau Placed Under Ar- rest by State Poli An automobile stolen in Lawrence, Mass., a week ago was recovered in Lyme Thursday by State Policeman Alfred L. Rudd, and Roland G. Gou- dreau of Lawrerce is being held for its theft. State Policeman Rudd was no- tified of “the theft of the machine last week and has been working on the case. 3 George Griswold. justice of the peace. notified State Policeman Rudd about 10.30 Wednesday night that there were five young men asleep in an automobile Feside the rcad. The macnine had no lights. Mr. Griswold sa!d that the yvoung men looked suspicious but the had nothing upon which to hold them. ‘State Policeman Rudd told Mr. Gris- wold to hold them until he could get] there to investigate. Thursday morn- ing the state policeman went to Lyme and questioned one of the voung fel- lows. who gave his name as Goudreau. Goudreau declared. that J. S. Rouleau, the owner of the car. had let him take it Sunday and that while he was out it broke down. He worked a day and a half to get -monev with which to pay for the repairs, but at the end of that time he had been away so long that he_was afraid to go back with the car. State Policeman Rudd called Rou- leau. who lives in . Nashua. N. H dreau said. The owner of the car stated that Goudreau had stolen the | machine. The Lawrence police were | notified and Goudreau was taken to the New London nolice station to await | the ‘arrival of oficers. The other four younz men were let 0. as they were vounz men who were on their war from Boston to New York whom Goudreau had picked up and given a lift i THE SHORE LINE INCREASE. Hartford Times Says Rate is Greater Than on Steam Road. A new rate of fare schedule wdat into effect on the Shore i.ine electric | railway Thursday mornine, says the| Hartford Times. Conductors on the; line asserted that the first information thev had in regard to the change was Wednesday evening. when the com- pany announced a 50 per cent. increase | in_fares over the present ones. The new charge system will be by zones and will be approximately three cents per zon2, a mile representing a zome. The gre from north terminus of the line to_KEssex heretofore has been 15 cents. The new schedule brings it up to 24 cents. Throngh fare from Chester to New Haven heretofore has been 86 cents: now it is $1.29. ¢ The charge for a single zone, how- ever, will be five cents, but if the pas- senger overlaps the second zome. or rides through it, the fare will be eight cents. The cities of Norwich and New London, however, are excepted and a | single fare within the city limits will be five cents. . This approximate rate of three cents answer to a charge of sale of intoxicat- inz liquors to men in the uniforms of the United States government, and his case was continued until Saturday. He was allowed his freedom upon furnish- ing $1,000 surety. “Terrell was arrest- ed by Special Agent Hickey of the Central Vermont rallway Wednesday night. Presented Wrist Watch. Walter J.

Tickets for steam cars can be secured for 2 1-2 cents a mile. while by mileag= it costs but 2 1-4 cents a mile. The Shore Line elec- tric railway, therefore, has completely disrupted the former precedent of the fare on steam cars being greater than that on electric cars. 3 BISHOP ACHESON MAY GO TO FRANCE.
