Travel conditions on the streets of the city were somewhat bétter on Thursday night than earlier in the morning, the slush that had reached a depth of three or four inches in the morning having been matted down and frozen solid. Walking, however, was about as bad at nightfal as in the morning, although the situation was opposite to what persons out in the early hours had expericnced. The walks were covered with a sheet of ick Thursday night and more than one unlucky indiyidual took a short cut to the gmu:j_ Superintendent of Streets Irving M.

Of special interest, relative io the proposed- increase in rates, is the constantly growing impression that the rates is intended as an opening to '@iscussion of the purchase of the water | company's properties by the borough of Danielson. To any such move at the present time there will be' marked | opposition, for good and sufficient rea-) sons. If the borough must buy. wise! business heads say that such purchase should be deferred for at least five years. There are many good and ! valid reasons, it is claimed, why the borough should not purchase at this time, but chief -among them is the yery general one that this is a good | time to sell anything and a poor time to buy. As indicating the interest of the res- idents of the West Side (East Brook- Iyn). in: the- proposed advance in rates, i the following statement, .prepared for The Bulletin by a property owner and water user of that town, is of very mueh more ‘than passing interest in .the boroug! “The Crystal Wiler Co. has never| been taxed either in the town Brooklyn or-in the Brooklyn Fire d triet. | A _definite {of the Crystal So¥ street Lx' o id. .

Thursday was a day of significance to Bast Killingly,, for it brought back to that isolated communTty trolley ser- vice with Providence and intermediate points’ to the east. The first pas- senger car: got through early in the morning, coming as far as what is known as the freight station, about 1,200 feet easterly of the passenger station. The car was the first seel in East Killingly for just two weel for the big storm has blocked the line since that time and made n')era!iun' of the cars impossible insofar reaching East Killingly has been con- cerned. The opening of the line, by the Rhode Island company, again furnish- es Eust Killingly milk producers with transportation of the daily supply that goes into Providence from that sec- | tion of the town. The line from Danielson to Rast; Killingly remains closed, as do all other.-trolley lines in this part of the state.

Two of the cars were located in this | city, one, a Hudson coupe, cwned by | Jesse Rich, another a Buick, owned hy | cdoin, a driver for the Keith Trucking Garage comvany. State Policemen Bridgeman _and Flynn, working with Caplain Bulzer | and representatives of infurance con- | cerns, been investigating here during this week. and their activities during the period resuited in the an- nouncement on Thursday that two cars had been seized and that another was under investization. As the story of the manner in which stolen cars were unloaded wholésale on unsnsvecting Putram people con- tinues to unfold there is a very greatly increased desire to locate one H. B. Wright, otherwise known as Adams, who seems to be the person that in all probability can furnish much informa- tion that officials here would like to come into possession of, for Wright, or Adams, was the man who brought most of the stolen cars into this terri- tory and sold them to dealers, who had no idea that the machines wers | being otherwise than legitimately sold. | It mow develops that Wright found Putnam and vicinity a bonanza field | for disposing of a number of the cars that came into his possession, and it | was estimated up to Thursday after- | noon's discoveries that he had taken ! away over $5.000 for cars disnosed of here or in the immediate vicinitv. In official circles here Thursday af-| ternoon it was claimed that the Hud- son coupe which Mr. Rich bousht is the pronerty of Merrice Murphy of Sonth Lincoln, Mass., and that it was stolen on May 9 of last year. Owner- | ship of the Jodoin Brick has not been | determined, but officers claim nufbers i on it have been tamnered with. This | car was disposed of here through the | Penin agency. That Wright, unsuspectingly /or otherwise, managed to find a ma"ketv here for a number of cars that have been announced durine the past three : weeks as' stolen machines was duve in! very great measure, it is claimed. to the fact that dealers here had confi- any reason to suspect that the cars they were nurchasing were othemifle than as represented. Up to Thursday every effort to !n— cate Wright had failed. He has been absent frora his usval haunts in thi Seizure of the Rich and Jodoin cars ! as mentioned here consisted merely in warning the men mentioned not to dispose. of the cars or permit them to go_out of their possession. Tn connection with one of the stolen cars owne here a story w lated on Thursday of this machine's first appearance in this 3 her of months ago.

According to all accounts, the membership ‘of the club is grow- ing amazingly. Danielson also will have representation on the special train that a New London Hose com- pany will send out to Canada this summer, bound for Montreal. The promise is that there will be an unusual demand for farms here- abouts this season. - Arrivals this early of prospective buyers, some of them from distant western states, are said to be but the forerunners of many | that will come when the season opens.
