Aconple of bicycle thieves operated
'ln Norwalk yesterday, and today the
number of wheels in town is diminished
by two. The losers are the F. S. Ambler
Cycle company and F. W. Rogers. .
Fromwhatoan be learned the men
.1 first visited the stores or their victims,
apparently to get “the lay of the land."
-, Tuesday, while Mr. Ambler, of the
Ambler Cycle company, was out, a
'- stranger entered the store and wanted
to look at a lady’ s bicycle. He said he
wanted an extra light machine. Everitl
Byiiigtoa, who is employed in the store,
told him that was the only wheel he
had in at the time, and the man left.
Later in the afternoon the same man
.. went inte‘II'. W. Rogers’ store to look
. atladies' wheels. Besaidhehad been
, to Ambler’ s, but could not get what he
ted. As he was astranger Mr. Rog-
d not want to rent him a machine,
so told him they were all engaged. He
then tried to rent a tandem.
Yesterday afternoon, about 1 o'clock,
while Mr. Ambler was at dinner, the
man again visited the store. Mr. By-
iagton, who had waited on him the day
before, thought he must be all right,
and rented him a Model 40, ’96 Colum-
, bio, for half a day, the stranger paying
seventy-five cents for its use. The
number of the‘wheel was 26,611. ' Notln
lug wrong was suspected until last
night, when the man did not :retura.
Mr. Ambler then began to 1111111 111111111.
its and decided that the man wars prac-
’ 'tioal bicycle thief. "
About the same time this man was so-
during a wheel at Mr. ‘Ainbler’s, another

been seen.
Induiry at Mrs. Mary Weyerhauscr s,
at 21 River street, disclosed the fact
that no such person had been there.
The man giving that name was about
twenty-seven years of age, dark com-
plexibn, had a dark moustache and
were dark clothes. The stran-
ger who visited Mr. Ambler's store
was apparantly about the same age,
with dark moustache, wore light trous-
ers and dark coat and vest.
No clue has been secured to the
thieves.

York Friday night and sail for England
Saturday afternoon. The rest of the
time here will be devoted mostly to
examinations. There will he a great
send-of! Friday night. in which the
citizens willparticipate. The crew will
sail on the slow-going Berlin and will
be eight or ten days on the, water.
While on board the men will have a
special training table and will take
Iight'exercise daily. It was formerly
the plan to take alonga special‘cook
who has always accompanied Yale
crews to New London. When this
was found impracticable, the daily
mean and peculiarities in diet of
the crew were sent to the steward
of the Berlin and satisfactory arrange—
ments were made. “On arriving at
Southampton the crewlwill go by rail to
Henley. Herc acottage has been pro-
vided for their accommodation, situated
Jnhigh ground a short distance from
the river. They willtrain daily on the
river until the week of the race.
Two shells will be taken along, the
new one and the boat in which the Yale
crew won against Harvard last year.
Numerous games and amusements will
be provided to relieve the tcdium of the
voyage. ' '
While college men believe that the
crew will make a good showing, they
have come to think that English crews
arewell nigh invincible and so'hardly
expect the crew to win. It Will there-
fore be a surprise to learn the opinion of
the veteran coach, Bob Cook. Incon-
versatioa Saturday he declared that this
year’s eight is the best Yule has ever
had. He said that it was almost per-
fectly bsl mood and rowing 1n unpre-
cedented form. His conclusion was
that barring accidents Yale win
the regatta in spite of the prestige of
English crows.

It Will Take Place llolll Sunday'Evsnlllg. When
a Native Armenian Will Deliver the Pris-
cipal Address, and lasts Will be
Furnished by the Unlicd Choirs; .
To the Citizens of South Norwalk:
The Connecticut Armenia Relief com-
mittee has appealed to Norwalk in cor -
nection with the other towns of our
state, to come to the relief of our suffer-
ing fellow-men in Christian'Armonia.
This committee is auxiliary to the N11-
tionul Armenian Relief conunittee,aud is
composed of Governor Collin, President
Dwight. President VHartrauft, l’reeident
51111111, Bishop Tierney. Dean Wayland,
and Bishop Williams. They point out
the fact that the aw i'ul sufferings of the
Armenian people still continue; that
while spontaneous help flowed forth
from many while the press reports of
murder, torture, conflagration and pil-
lage were daily awakening our indigna-
tion and pity, the time has come for u
more systematic and general move-
ment for adequate relief.
The indescribable cruclties of massacre,
outrage and robbery, inflicted on then-
sands of peaceablo Armenian merchants
and farmers by Turks and Koords for
the sake of religious fanaticism, plund-
er and lust, have been followed by fam-
iao, and pestilence, as usual, has follow-
ed in the track of famine. The halo of
desolation and suffering is enough to
move the hardest heart to pity. Then-
_s:l.nds of families, whose fathers have
been slaughtered, mothers dishonored
audgoods wrenched away, have been
saved from perishiag from cold and
starvation solely by British and Ameri-
can philanthrophy. '
The work of relief is now splendidly
orgunmd. Itis conducted on a sound
business basis, with the“’le'ast possible
expense of administration. In addition
to the comic and missionaries, who
are rendering every service in their
power, our heroic coulltrywoman, Missl
Clara Barton, and her helpers of tthed
Cross society, are on the ground, and
distributing supplies to worthy sufferers
in euchaway that one dollar keeps a
person alive three months. Hundreds
of thousands, however, are now in need
of farm seed as well as food, and must
be cared for for several months more, at
least. Without systematic effort now
and an illuneglinto increase in gifts,
the relief work 11111111. be suspended, Miss
Barton withdrawn, and lllllltitudca
more of our, fellow Christians perish
miserably.
We believe South Norwalk wishes to
do her part in this great work of charity.
Public meetings have lately been held in
Hartford, New London and other cities
with noble results. In harmony with
the unanimous desire of our churches. as
expressed through their otlicial boards,
we have therefore arranged for a public
meeting to be held‘in Music Hall next
Sunday evening at 7:30 o'clock. Hon.
John H. Ferris will preside. 'A native
Armenian, li.}1l. Ashjiall, 11 ill deliver
the principal address. Music will be
furnished by the united choirs of our
churches, under the direction of Frank
Coulstock. Ell-mayor W. ll. Reed has
kindly consented to not astrcasnrcr of
the relief fund.
We invllocvcry man and woman to
be present at this locating and support

At a special meeting of the City
Council of Norwalk, held last night,
the application of the Norwulk Street
Raihvay company to double truck Main
street was denied. 1
The Council recently sent the Stmet
Railway company a menloruada of re-
quests they wished to have the company
comply with. These requests would
make the street a uniform width of
toirty-llve feet before the double track
ing was commenced. In reply President
Bill, of the Street Railway, said the
company could not comply with the
Council's}equests, but wouldso do as
far as possible.
Councilman William H. Smith offer-
ed, last night, the following resolution,
which was unanimously adopted:
Whereas, The Norwalk Street Rail-
way company did, on the 4th day of
April, 1806, present to the mayor and
Council its petition and plan for double
tracking its Winnipank line from the
southerly end of its long turnout near
Harriet street ton point between Hoyt
and Wall streets, and,
Whereas, Hearings were duly had
thereon according to law; and,
Whereas, It appears (I) that public
convenience and necessity do not re-
quire such double tracking; (2) that ill
many places through Raid street the
same is too narrow to allow convenient
space for the traveling public between
the outer rail and the curb if doubli-
tracks are laid; (‘3) that at a point nearly
in front of what is known asNo. 1:313
Main street, the street is less than the
width required by law to permit of the
laying of double tracks, (4) that the
demands of the traveling public require
that with a double track the said street
between curbs should be at least thirty-
five feet wulc at all points, (5) that if
any changes are made 1n said street by
reason of double tracking, said company
shall pay the entire expense of such
changes, including the taking of tho
necessary land, which 1t has refused to
do; now. therefore;
Resolved. That such petition, for the
reasons above given. be denied.
President Ilill's statement. concerning
the existing state of affairs is that the
Street Railway company received from
City Clerk Lockwood amcluorauda of
changes requested in Main street, ac-
companied by a map. At 11 point mark-
ed A, ill front of Charles St. John's rc-
sidcllco the company was requested to
set back the fence and curb, leaving
thirty-five feet of road and an right foot
sidewalk. This required the fence to be
set back twenty-two inches 011 tho bend.
Mr. Hill thought the city should provide
for land damage, and that the only way
the land could be procured was through
condolllnatiou prrx-mdings, owing to the
involved title to the property. Then»
was room enough without that if land
was taken which was lying useless on
the other side of the street. Section B
' was to set back Frank Beers' fence five
fact. Mr.’_ llill's reply was that the city
111th provide land damage. The street
was already thirty-five feet wide them,
and to widen was to also destroy a valu-
able shade tree. Section C was to set
buck the fence on Streetl‘lstatc, raise the
catch-basin llllll build a new one at the
corner of School street; leave the ell-cot
thirty-five feet, with eight foot sidewalk
on the east side of thl1 street. Mr. Hill's
reply was that the wall was not to be,
disturbed and no new curb to be used.
Section D was to set back the fence
line at Lamb’s lot fivo feet. Mr. Hill
said it had been illqloslliblo to see all the
hl1irs,but those seen were willing." con-
lurnt was olltllilll1ll,tllo Street Railway
company would raise the sidewalk and
fill in "mint, moving the liillfii". back.
l-ll-ctIon 11} was tosct the walk back ill
front ' of E. Cnsowulli's resilience,
leaving the street thirty-five foot,
with eight-foot sidewalk. The Street
Railway company was willing to not the
walk back a short distance, so as not to
destroy the shade, for which Mr. Cull-
owllkl claimed damages. Section 11‘ was
to reset all frames, construct all retain-
ing and other walls, do all filling, misc
and rebuild catch-basins, raise 111111111-
wlllkll, water boxes, manholes, and fur-
nish crushed stone where the street was
torn up, also to givo bonds to the city.
Mr. Hill stated that the St. Johns .
claimed $11,000 damages and that Mr.
(,lusowskl’s damages would 1111 email-
crablo. lie said the Street. Railway
company was willing to run to the bond
of Union menus with double tracks,
going down Lamb‘s Hill, past Mr. Cull.
owski's. witha single track as far as
the present switch at Henry street. and
thou wlth double tracks to Hoyt street
Councilman Chicory objected to any
fregsoftbo switch coming In front of
the fire houses.
Mr. lllll wanted to k if tho com»
parly’s offer of a sagas-111 down
matters. .
He was informed that a new petition
would have to be filed and anctherhear-
lag held.
Councilman Boyer said that if the
company wanted to expedite matters
it could pay the land damages as requir-
ed by the Council. He said that
this was not a public necessity, but was
simply what the Street Railway coul~
pany‘ requires. In other propositions
the company agrees to do certain things
but does. not olTer to pay any land
damage. For one he did not think the
city should pay one cent.
Mr. Hill thought that in a measure
this was a public necessity.
Councilman Kent said Mr. Boyer had
expressed very fully. the feeling of
the Council. Mr. Kent than wanted ,
to know what land damages the com-
pany’s new proposition would offer to
pay
Mr. Hill said there would be none,as
the street 111 front of the Beers and St.
John places was already the required
width.
Attorney Hurlbutt said the city had
no right to deny his clients the right to
double track the street. The Street
Railway company had no legal right to .
force land damages, and the city had
no right to impose upon the company
because it had refused to do what it had
no right to do.
The meeting adjourned until 8:30
o'clock Monday night.
