Cowan, proprietor of the mery-go-rousdl at Ocean beach, concern- ing which there has been so much con- troversy, was ordered Sunday to stop operating the machine after he had been running it about an hour. Prosecutor Daniel M. Cronin ordered him to stop and notified him to.appear in the police court at New London Monday morning to answer to a violation of the Sunday Maw), relating to commercializing the Sabbath. Prosecuting Attorney Cronin conferred with Major H. A. Hull, counsel for Co- ‘wan, and agreed to have a hearing later in the week. Cowan was released on that that Cowan operated the merry- go-round at his advice and the matter will be tested out in the courts. There appears to be a question - of whether. the city of New London or the connecticut state police department has jurisdiction at Ocean beach. Officials of the city claim that the place is not a public amusement park in the strict meaning of the law. This claim will be put forth by Attorney Cronin, who will also claim that the machine cannot be operated on Sundays. Superintendent Egan of the state police and the court will decide whether or not he can operate it Sundays. The shooting gallery and several other places of aruse- ment at the beach have not been allowed to operate on Sundays for some time, e NORWICH MAN HELD FOR FEDERAL COURT w London, probable cause was 1 found for holding Jossph Duchette, of Norwich, formerly proprietor of the Nut- meg hotel on Bank street, New London, and he was bound over to the mext term of the United States Federal court, which convenes in®New Havén.
