Jackson Are’ Held by the New London Po. lice, o One of thd st daring rotberies ever comimitted by river pirates is charged by the potice o Jabee W. Cole of New London and John 8. Jack- m, who resides in 1 houseboat in aw's Cove, who, with the assistance of the two" barge captains are alleged to have stolen approximately ten ton of bituminous coal. Wednesday night from & barge which was at anchor in New London harbor. The men might have gotten away with the stuff it their plans had not been frustrated by Patrolman Nelson Smith. Cole claims that he bought the coal from a’man whose mame he refused to give and says he paid about $1.50 a tom for It. He went out to the barge shortly after 8 o'clock in a power boat, and with the assistance of the other man helped to place it in bags to facilitate transférring it to the wharf in Howard street. The task of sferring the coal from the barges to the wharf was completed about 3 o'clock Thursday morning. About 8 o'alock Cole engaged the services of Isadore Ahelofsky, @ ped- ; dler, who lives in Bank street, to cart the ‘bags of coal from the wharf to the coal hins of the New Method laundry in Trumbull street. The ped- dler was to receive 31 a ton for his troubles. Persons who became susplelous of the actions of Cole and Jackson. noti- fled the palice early Thursday morn- ing that a large quantity of coal in bags was plled up on the wharf and that there was evidently somethizg wrong. Captain Haven dotailed Pa trolinan Nelson Smith to investignte. When the policeman arrived at the wharf he found the coal as has been stated. but theré was no one or the wharf at the time guarding the stuff, s0 the policeman placea himself in a position where he could not be easily seen by anyone tomjng on the wharf. Dut at the same time bad perfect view of the entire space. He did not have to walt jone. however. for Cole soon appeared. When the policeman kad identified him by his actions as one of the men involved in the coal deal, he took him into custodv. Shartly following Cole’s arrest, Jackson was apprehended by the same policeman. Continuing his investigation Patrol- man Smith discovered Abelofsky en- route to the New Method laundry with a load, and following him to Trum- bull street the policeman interviewed the manager of the laundry régarding Lis receiving coal which is alleged to liave been stolen from a barge in the harbor. The manager denled all knowl- edge of whit was going on. saying that he had not ordéred any coal, and the first he knew that coal was being placed in his bins was when the po- liceman told him. Leavine the laundry office Patrol- man Smith picked up Abelofsky as he was about to leave the wharf with an- other lord and@ had him drive to the police station. When questioned the neddler stated that Cole had hought 30 burlap bars from him Wednesday, and at the seme time had made the bar- wain for delivering the coal to the New Method laundry. Prosecnting Attorney Cronin was called into the case, but his investi- mation. in so far as he was able to ro. Aid not disclose anv more inform- ation into the facts of the case than had been procured by the policeman. Both Cole and Jackson are locked 1»p at police headquarters in New Tondon nending a further investiza- tion by Prosecuting Attorney Cronin.
