GETS HEAR .
FOR HIS THEFTS
FROM TRUST CO.

 

 

 

— Assertion ThatBridge-

port Man Did Not
Drink, Chew, Smoke,
Goes Unheeded

RIDGEPORT. Sept. ill—Victor J.
Martin. 24 years old. former receiv-
ing teller of the savings department
of the Commercial Bank and Trust
company. of Bridgeport. was senten-
ced to state's prison for a minimum
term of three years. on embezzle‘
charges. by Judge John \V.
Banks in Criminal Superior court
eysterday afternoon.

Accountants who examined Mar-
tin's accounts alleged in reports they
made to the State‘s Attorney's of-
fice that-in three years he embezzl-
ed the sum of $11.8i8..9~i. an aver-
age of 812 a day or 8330 a month.

In one day. the): claimed. he stole
as high as $1,049.50. during onc-
month up to $1,707 an din one year
$5.716. Martin. however. pleaded
guilty to only three counts. admit-
ting cnibczzriments in the sum of
$2.0l0.

Martin came to this country. with
his widowed mother and live broth-
ers and sisters. when he was two
years old. Obliged to leave school
when in the seventh grade. he work.
ed in factories until. by home study.
he had prepared himself for a bank-
ing career. ,

Thefts Began in 1921.
He went to work for the Commer-
cial Bank February 19, 1920 as a
clerk. Transferred to the savings
department. he began his thefts. it
was alleged. in March of.1921. when
he took 350 and continued until
March 5. l924. the claim was made.
to “appropriate funds of the bunk."
Suspicion was first. directed to-
ward the youthful teller. it was
stated, when he pughased a $3.500
motor car and was discovered to
have a home. luxuriously furnished.
in an expensive apartment house.
He had covered embeulements. it
was explained. by resorting to the
use oi! “dummy cards" in 'the ac-
counts of depositors who are accus-
tomed to leave large amounts in
the bank untouched for long periods.
Accountants“ reports. as read in
court. accused Martin of taking the
following sums of money from the
bank: During 1921. 31.609.20: 1022.
£4,123.50: 1923, $5,706.65 and 1924.
$410.59. a. total of S 1.849.94.
“Nearly 1’ col."

Attorney Daniel Brennan pleaded
forcefully that Martin be not. re-
quired to serve confinement in. the
state's prison. declaring the accused
“never chewed. smoke or drank. and
I say with sincerity he was as nearly
perfect as could be gotten."

Judge Banks stated the embezzle-
ments, covering as they did a period
of years. "could not be considered in
the same. light" as cases where per-
sons yield to "sudden temptation."

The court sentenced Martin to
serve from one to two ' years .in
state’s prison on one count: one
year on the second. to be served at.
the expiration of the first sentence,
and a third year after the elapse of
the second sentence.

Martin's young wife wept bitterly
throughout the hearing and had to
be supported from the court room.

Few Residents Turn
Out to See New Idea
At Work— Speakers

”Mayor Thomas Robins ’ expressed

eyes of investigators of the robbery
of Miss-Edithraobe‘fashionabls mod-

keen disappointment over the fact
that so few residents of the city were
present at the public hearing held
last evening in the Council Chun-
bers of the City Hall. on the matter
of installing fiashgight s nais at
some of the grade crossi in this
city.

Mayor Robins informed; those
present that the New York. New 1-in-
ven and Hartford Railroad Company
had gone to considerable troubla to
bring the signals to this city for the
demonstration last. night and that
the .company was desirous of im-
proving conditions at the local grade
crossings and that he thought. that
the residents should at least coi-op—
crate with tho railroad company; the

The mystery surrounding the iden-
tity of the escort was dispelled to-
day' when Miss Bobs. after keeping
his name secret throughout the early
part of the investigation admitted
that her wealthy admirer was Rob-
ert Hague. marine_ su intendentr
of the'standsrd Oil ompany of

New Jersey. She is also said to have

admitted that it was he who.gave
her a $10,000 bracelet which was

at strata of 35 to 40 per minute.
Mr. Morrison stated that. there
were :7 of these signals in opera-
tion in’this state and that there were

York state and one in Hindu Island.
Flagmen. .

In answer to a. question Mayor
Robins said that it was not the in~
tcntion to eliminate the tiasrnan at
Commerce or Cross streets. but that
the signal could be installed at
Broad street and Catherine street,
Ferry avenue find the Winnipnuk
crossings to good advantage. He
pointed out that. these signals would
be installed at a cost of $2.000 each.
They can be seen at a distance of
300 feet. '

lloward Holmes of Franklin street.
declared it. was simply a money sav-
ing proposition by the railroad comv

put up for the benefit of the public.
He said that if these signals were
accepted by the Mayor and Common
Council and that lives were lost on
these crossings that the loss of these
lives would rest on the shoulders of
the Mayor and Common Council.
Against the Plan.

\Villism Cahiii. of ‘Wilton avenue.
stated that he was against the sig-
nals st. Catherine street. beause of
the number of children that went
over this crossing each day on their
way to school. He declared the
children would not pay any atten-
tion to the signals. where they would
to a. flagn‘ian. Mr. (‘ahill also en-
tered a complaint about the blowing
of whistles at night. by trains pass-
ing near Wilton avenue. He stated
that many houses Were unrented,
there because of this fact.

Albert. Winchester spoke in favor
of the signal and told of the failure
of a flagman at. a crossing to hear
the approaching train and said the
man remained in his cabin while the
train passed and an automobile was
nearly struck by the train. Mr.
Winchester said that such a signal
was much more reliable than the
human element. He declared that
something was needed to overcome
the failure of the human element.
He had investigated the signal and
seen it in operation and was much
impressed by it.. -

New Canaan Avenue. .

William McMahon said that noth-
ing had been said about. the New
Canaan avenue crossing which was
one of the worst in this section and}
more so since the road had been
changed by the railroad ‘ company.
He stated that if the railroad com-
pany wanted to do something for the
citizéns that they would give this
signal in addition to the present
decision. so that the crossing would
be protected at night. He suggested '
that the fingmen be retained at the
crossings and that some of the clerks
in the omce of New Haven be dis-
charged as a means of cutting down
expenses.

Mr. Holmes said that: he was not
surprised that Mr. Winchester was
the only man in the room that. was
in favor of installing the signals and
then started to discuss matters per-
taining to the Second District Light—
ing plant. but was cut short. by
Mayor Robins. who informed him
that he was out of order and that
there would be a. dix'rict meeting to~
night to disc as this matter.

Mayor Rob us said that. the mat-
ter' of installing the signals would
not be decided immediately. as the
Council wanted some time to inves-
tigate further. ‘

Mr. Morrison added to his previ-
ous statements that the railroad
had what was known as a. pedestri-
an ball. which they installed at; the
crowns: with the lights on some oc-
casions. He stated that this be“
