Enthusiasts Who Will Go to
Long Island Tonight on the
Steamer Josephine Will ‘Hold
a Meeting and Perfect Details
Norwalk Is to have an automobile
club. The proposition has been in
the works for some time and will be
brought to a tangible state of affairs
this evening.
Anomali‘lus as the stutemnt may
seem, the new club will come into be~
lug on the broad expanse of [king Is-
land Sound. This state of affairs
arises from the fact that the organi-
zers comprise a party of motor car
enthusiasts who will start this even-
ing for the great Vanderbilt cup race.
which will be driven tomorrow morn-
Ing on Long Island. _
The Norwalkers will make the trip
on ‘the sturdy oyster steamer Jose-
phine, upon the invitation of Captain
William F. Hoyt, and will leave South
Norwalk at 7 o'clock tonight. En
route across to Oyster Bay, the local
automobllists will assemble in the cab-
in and form the club.
Foremost among those who are
backing the new club are Major Eben
Hill, Jr., who has a forty horse power
car, and Fredrick E. Lockwood, of F.
E. Lockwood and Company, the Nor-
walk automobile dealers. The object
of the organization is to see that auto-
mobllists get, a “square deal" in The
Norwalks, and that the local enthusi-
asts may have a place to meet and
talk over matters of mutual Interest
ill the motor 'world, It is planned to
secure club rooms and those will bc
filled up in an appropriate manner.
The number of automobilists In The
Norwalks is increasing steadily, and
It Is believed that no trouble will be
found in securing a. good membership.
Major Hill, who has been spoken of as
president of tile club. is very enthu-
siastic over the project, and has no
doubt that the idea of a club will meet
with much favor.
A name for tlle'club' will probably
be chosen this evening and officers
elected. It is considered likely that
the organization will be known as
"The Automobile Club of Norwalk,“
or "The Norwalks.’.’
, The plans of the party. who will
make the trip to Long island on the
Josephine, are to cross the Sound this
evening and "bunk" for the night at
the boat house at Oyster Bay. Bright
and early tomorrow morning. before
sunrise, they will get out on the
course.
There are nineteen American and
foreign curs entered. The first lllil-
chine will be started off at 6 o’clock
and the remainder will follow at onc
minute intervals.

The prisoner told the police that "all

gang robbed her of 85. A few blocks
from where the woman was found the

which they had smashed. The rob-
bers lied. however, and the police get

on a charge of burglary and highway
robbery. He resisted arrest and told
the police he would be at liberty to-

SUHFHISEII
Much to Sell Liquor There as
In Norwalk
The four saloon keepers wllo do bus
loose in the town of Darieu met with
the surprise of their life yesterday
when they made application for a re-
newal of their licenses and were In-
forlned the license fee Ill Darlen had
been raised from 8250 to $460. exactly
the amount paid by saloon keepers ill
Norwulk. The county commission-
ers told them the Inc case was due to
the growth of the popu allon of Dorian,
They had figures to show that the pop-
ulation of the town is over 3,000 and
gave the figures as the reason for ad-
:ling $200 to the license feet. The sa-
loon keepers tried to convince the
commissioners there was a mistake
somewhere: that, unless they counted
in the Inmates of the Fitch‘s Soldiers'
Home, they could not by any stretch
of figures find more than 2.026 people
in the town. The expostulatlons did
not have any effect. lind it was made
plain to the saloon men that they had
either to pay $450 or go without a li-
cease.
This was not the only surprise In
store for the Dul‘lcn saloon keepers, it
has long been the custom over there
to pay 50 cents and have their appll‘.
cations for a license posted on the
town sign post. Yesterday they found
lllcinselvcs face to face with a new
law which provides that the popula-
iioil must be advertised in u newspa-
per. If the town whcre applicant Is
to do business has no ncwrepupor then
he must advertise in u paper in the
town adjoining. It costs prclty ncarly
icn times more to advertise in news--
papers then It docs on the sign post.
“I don‘t mind the advertising." suill
Jacob Miller. proprietor of a saloon
over pour the Burton and Stamford
town lines. ”That‘s tllc law. plain
enough, alld I am always ready to
obey the law. Illut when It comes to
boosting the license fee in this inali-
her. I cannot but protest. Our last
census was taken four or live years
ago, and Nathan Dani-by took it. Mr.
Duuchy told me himself that the pop-
ulation of the town then was 2.026. if.
has not incrcascd to any appreciable
extent since. The commissioners new
oil us the population In over 3,000
and for that reason they‘ve got to
raise the license fee. I can‘t sec

Asked what he was going to do
about It. Mr. Miller said:
"What can I do'."',
Some Darlen pcoplc advance pretty
strong arguments for counting Ill the
Soldiers' Home—Jim license purposes.
"We don't fix the license foo," said
Commissioner Whitman S. Mead, "The
law fixes It, and the law is that in
towns with a. population of over 3.000
it shall be."
“Doesn't make any illfforcnci- to us
one way or the other." said Commis-
sioner Charles H. I’clx. Jr. “We llnsc
ollr knowledge of the population of the
town on tile Connecticut lieglslcr and
Manual for 1005. That gives lllc pop-
ulullon'of Ilurlen at 3.llli."
"We don‘t know whether or not the
figures include the lllmlilcs of tho Sol
lllcrs' Home." said Commissioner Sim-
oon Pause. “We did not take. the cou-
sils. We don't know that It would
make much difference anyway. Gurus
the saloon keepers haven't much klck
coming on the score of the Solillors‘
Home, anyway.
"The matter was called to tho nt-
tontion of the commissioners by lbc
town officials of Dorian. They claim-
ed the town wasn't gelling cnoulth Il-
ccnso money from the county. ’l‘lu-y
called our attention to the fact that
the population of the town In ovar
3.000. and we nctcd accordingly."
Under the law. the town gets 90 pol“
cent. of the license fees. Thus the
town of Carlos will be £900 in, because
of the increase. There is not much
likelihood that any of the saloon keep-
em will go out of business because of
the boost of the license fee.

i
a Promissory Note for SI ,500‘
Did Not Come to Trial
An aged lawsuit was settled In the
civil superior court in Bridgeport, yes-

It was the case of Andrew Selleck.
of Stratford, against J. Arthur Pinneo,
of New York, and Dr. James 0. Greg-
ory, of Norwalk, over a promissory
note for $1,500. given by the defend-
ants lo the plaintiff ill November, 1888.
1050 suits was brought in January.
18 7.
The defendant. Pinneo. bought Mr.
Soileck‘s business in Norwalk, paying
$4,500 for It, $3,000 in cash. the bal-
once by a note of $1,500, «which was
endorsed by Mr. Gregory. It is this
note that Is involved In the suit. The
defendant Gregory disputed payment
strongly, claiming the statute of limi-
tations and failure to properly notlfI’.
The case was set down for a trial
before Judge George W. Wheeler, yes.
terday, bill the principals and the at-
torneys got together before court and
decided that after almost ten yours of
litigation they would compromise. and
this was done.
There was some question as to
whether the endorser of the note-Mr.
Gregorymhad been given proper notice
or not. and so both sides agreed to
