likes. which were said to be stored in
t Re Second district but without avail.
They have also endeavored to find a:
mu- which is said to have been in the
possession of a prominent Second dis—
trict man but which also disappeared
from this city at the same time as the
Auburn car did.
Rumors have been prevalent in .\or-
nralk that members of the local police
r‘nrce have either been arrested or sus-
palded from active duty.
(me grain of truth to anv of these ru—
”tors and all of the members of. the
the pertinent are on active duty.
It is said that the state police trail
as led into Bridgeport. where an ef-
fort is being made to find 3. Norwalk
man who was believed to be in hiding’
in. that city last night. It is also said
that in a Bridgeport garage there was
found a stolen car that was being con-
verted into a. car of another type, on
instructions fro mthe thieves.
€3etting back to the local situation,
it has been ascertained by The Senti—
tad from the same source: of inform

first arrested by the State police, Se—

cafied either directly. or indirectly, in

BABGE CAPTAIN
IS RESCUED
BY POLICEMAN
(Continued from First Page) _
by his submersion into the cold water.
Captain Cullen managed to get held
of a. pile and hold on. .
Half an hour later, Captain Cul—
ing weaker and weaker were heard 103'
mg weaker and weaker wre heard by
Jean Clark. 'who lives above the Hub-
bell. Staples hardware store on Com-
merce street. He ran out‘ and in-
formed Patrolman Clune. and the
pair. accompanied by a couple of oth-
:er men. went, to Cullen’s rescue.
Patrolman Clune soon located Cap-
'tain'* Cullen and threw him a rope-
which he grasped. The rescuers en-.
others were concerned, he declared
that the charges would be pushed first'
under the Connecticut law. and that
the action of the Federal officers
would follow any taken in the State
Courts. He declared that while all
undenarrest were not involved in the
iactual stealing of cars. the State
would claim that they had knowledge
lot the operations and would be charg-
ed as principals.
Sergeant Virelli admitted that some
of the machines had been rec0\ered
from uell- known Norwalk people who
purchased them. He did not hesitate
to say that in one case. the purchaser
was entirely innocent and knew noth-
ing of the history of the car. but as to
four others. he refused to make a
statement. saying that investigation
now. under way would not permit a
publication of details.
The Fa} case referred to. is that of
of New Yoxk city, ar-
rested last Sunday. in Stamford. with
a stolen Dodge in his possession,
which he admitted taking from New
lYork city. He was taken to New York
by the authorities of that city .
Implicated in the case as well is
Salvatore Rocco. of 20 Burbank
street, who also owned one of the cars
stolen, and which, it was said. that
O'Donnell and Zieran have confessed
to stealing from New York city.
Rocco’s car. which the State police
scired. and which is being examined
by them, was taken from his garage.
and is an Oldsmobile. It is said that
the nameo t'the owner will be learn-
ed shortly, it is believed.
Rocco was summoned to Larchmont.
deavored to pull him out. but when,
nearly on dry land, his strength gave
out and he again dropped into the
water. This happened once more be~
fore Captain Cullen was finally landed
on the dock. Dr. Morrison was then
called and Captain Cullen was put to
bed.
This is not the first time that Pa~
‘trolman Clune has acted the part of
rescuer under similar circumstances.
A few years ago. he pulled a negro
out of the water at the same dock
‘He has also rescued one or two oth~_
ers in the same manner. ,
The barge "Nifty" is owned by the
O'Boyle company. of New York city.
