Obedience to Administrator Garfield's Order—Joseph Bradford Writes From France—Mrs. Dahood’s Molum a observance of the request of the administration the stores of West- ‘were closed for business Monday. exceptions were the food store: they closed at noon. In the after- the only stores open were the stores, excepted under the law, the news offices, which were open part of the time. The restaurants were of necessity open all day. Un- less_there is change in the rules, this condition will prevail for the next nine Mendays. The saloons were also closed, as were also the licensed liguor clubs, and there was harmony in all that pertained to the patriotic spirit of the times. Westerly not only ad- hered strictly to the orders of the fuel administration board but went farther and observed the accompanying re- quests, and then some, through pure patriotism. In comsequence the town ‘bore a Sunday-like appearance, except the religious or church observance. What was true of Westerly was also true in the twin village of Pawcatuck, in Connecticut. LR g & There was a report in Westerly Mon- day morning that the fellow who set fire to the grain plant of C. W. Camp- bell & company in Pawcatuck was under arrest, but not in Westerly or Stonington. ~In_connection with this report was the statement that this {same individual was responsible for the fire that destroyed the Tucker grain plant at Narragansett Pier, and farther that the same chap was for- merly employed at Alton. A member of the Campbell firm did not deny that there was eubstantial basis for the re- port, but the time was not quite ripe for the giving out of the details. While there may be no direct con- nection between Hans Seel and these fires, so far as known, he is the only Alton man under arrest to whom there would be a natural line of suspicion, with the facts withheld. Seel was taken into custody by arepresentative of the department of justice as a dan- gerous alien enemy. Before his arrest he had been under surveillance for some time. It was stated that he had made visits to the vicinity of the sub- marine base and his suspicious actions led to his arrest. Since then nothing has been heard of him in the public print and ‘it was supposed, here and hereabouts, that he had been interned. A brother of Seel was arrested some time ago in the south for some dis- jloyal action. to the federal government fand papers were found that he had some method of communication with Germany. Hans Seel was employed as drafts- man at the Alton lace mill. and was a egular visitor to the gymnasium in the Memorial and Library’ building, and always carried a suit case which he closely guarded. This intimation that Seel may probably be the person responsible for the Campbell - and Tucker fires is purely of a problemat- ical nature and may be without sub- stantial foundation. The Camphell fire occurred on the {night of March 31 last'and the grain i warehouse and elevator, with its en- j tire contents, were destroyed. “I¢5 only a case of deferred sentence, for Pll aet him, just so sure as there's fox afoot,” is the way Police Chiet Thomas E. Brown put it when Nutziata Gancerelle made his escape after knif- ing Frederick Gabrielle in a Canal street saloon on Thanksgiving eve. True to his word, the chief got him. He was traced from Westerly to Nor- wich, then to Portchester, to New York and finally in Worcester. Chief Brown finally located Gancerelle, employed under a ictitious name, in a Worces+ ter tannery. He was taken into cus- tody by the Worcester police and Chief Brown went to that city and brought Gancereile back to the police station. Gancerelle was _arraigned before Clerk Clarence E. Roche in the Third district court Monday morning and to the complaint of an assault with a dangeroys weapon pleaded not guilty. He was held for trial and bond was fixed at $2,000.° Four of his country- men went surety on the bond for the appearance of Gancerelle in the dis- trict court next Friday morning, Twenty-two friends of the accused were in court in readiness to be eure- ty, in part, on the bond, and of that number four were found to be quali- fied as sureties, as owners of unincum- bered real estate to the amount of the bond. Joseph Broadfoot of Westerly, now in the ambulance corps with the French army, in active service, and two of his three brothers are in’the military service of the United States. Joseph sent a letter to Thomas E. rown, chief of police, which was re- ‘eived Monday and reads as follows: Somewhere in France. December 9, 1917. Dear Tom: No doubt, Tom, you are having things pretty easy now, on ac- count of a good many of the rude hounds being in the service. No speed laws here, old boy. We have a chance to drive as fast as we please. You know me; I never did care about driv- ing fast, anyway; ask any of the, boys. ‘With the French army in the Voges mountains, sounds like big league stuff, doesn’t it? A little snow fell a couple of nights ago. Wish I had “Old George” here today to go rabbit hunt- ing'with me. It would be 2 little dan- gerous though, at that, for a rabbit track might lead right into Germany. I Was headed that way the other day in one of the cars. We got on the wrong road and, in a little while, if we had not been stopped, we would have been mixing up with a bunch of sausages. Oh, I still do a few foolish stunts, Tom. Just as fat as ever.. We are living great, getting plenty of plank steaks; yes, about the size of a crack- er. Wine and champagne are very cheap. We can buy pretty good cham- pagne for $20 a bottle.
