‘Police Get New Angle On Disappearance of
Gabbe-Mole Payroll Friday Afternoon ~
Await Photo of Man Released F r o m
Wethersiield Thursday:
Police are now working on the hint that a convict, released '
from Wethersileld prison Thursday, might have held up and
robbed Hugo Kahn, superintendent of the Gabbe-Mole company,
of the duo's $7,890.50 payroll'l‘riday afternoon.
Warden Calls Local Police
A phone call was received Satur-
day morning from Warden Henry
R. W. Scott of Wethersfield prison
stating that he’ had read of the hold-
up in the Hartford papers and that a
man who would answer the vague
description given the police by Kahn
had been released from prison
Thursday. .-
Wardcn Scott stated this man had
served a sentence for burglary and
that he was of the type that would
do this job. He wore a. light cap and
a. light brown coat at the time of his
release. lie is 25 years of age. War-
den Scott promised to send the lo-
cal police a photo of the released
convict with a complete description.
This is the first "lip" the police
have received in their search for the
person responsible for the theft of
the Gabbechlolc payroll. They in-
tend to work on this clue as soon
as they receive further information
from Warden Scott.
Some Possibilities
It is thought possible that tho
convict. after being released may
have Worked his way down to Nor-
walk and learned of the fact that
Kahn was carrying the payroll to
his home. followed Kuhn and con-
cealed himself in Kahn'a car. The
police do not think that the holdup
man concealed himself in the car at
the bank.
It is believed possible that the
former convict may have been loiter-
' the entrance of the
h Norwnlk Trust
“‘ d there by the opening on the
us day.
ahkfwas questioned by the police
Saturday afternoon regarding the
holdup. but could cast no further
light on the affair. Chief of Police
William R. Pennington stated the
police had not given up hope of cap-
turing the robber.
The loss of the payroll was cov-
ered by insurance but Crabbe-Mole
company has not been reimbursed
thus far. Investigators from New
York city are working on the case
at the present time and there is
some question as to whether the loss
will be paid or not. A thorough in-
vestigation. will be conducted into
the chic before any action is taken
by the company.

2,465 "CHILDREN
HURT BY AUTOS
DURING 1925
In 108 Cases, Irfiuries
Were Fatal —— More
Playgrounds A
Remedy?
Motor Vehicles caused injuries to
2,465 children in Connecticut last
year. it is announced by the state
motor vehicle department. The in-
juries proved fatal to 108 of them.
Special reports furnished to the edu-
cation departments of Hartford and
Stamford show that 281 of the chil.
dren were injured in the former
city and 71 in the letter.
“In view of the appalling "loss of
life in preventable accidents in the
United States. the importance of
safety education is apparent." says a
recommendation of the National
Conference on Street‘and Highway
Safety which is being widely dis-
seminated in Connecticut by the
Playground and Recreation Maori»
tion ”of smer‘iea.‘ "Recreation
leaders are sir gly urged to do
everything in t cir power to co-
operate with the safety movement in
the playground program and in local
institutes for playground directors.
In support of thsi work. Mrs. Charles
A. Goodwin has sent out letters to
many people in Hartford asking for
contributions to the Playground and
Recreation association.
School authorities in several
Vmuniclpalities of Connecticut are.
taking hold of the problem in euro
nest, and the motor vehicle depart-
ment is giving its cowperatlon. At
the request of the school officials of
Hartford and Stamford. the depart-
ment sends to each of those cities 3
monthly statement showing ,all the
accidents to children due to motor
vehicles which occurred in the prev-
.ious month. These statements in-
‘gude the folbwing information: the
ate. the hour. the location of the
accident. the extent of the injury.
and the identity and age of the vic-
tim. The information enables the
authorities to emcentrate their pre-
cautionary measurcs in large degree
on the locations and hours shown to
be the most hazardous-to children.

lie had the milk analyzed and a

cooler. He said he had since obtain-

the cow and gave up all hopes of
catching it alive. .
The party was unable to ride
horses after thagcow. because of the
ewe. py ground. thick forests and
dense thickets, which the cow hides
in. Captain Dolan led the party
into the woods at the rear of the
home of Albert Violet. on Wilton
road. Mr. Violet reported seeing
thecow a few minutes before the
party arrived. A dog soon picked
up the trail‘of the cow..whlch led
to a corral nearly two miles from
the road. The cow had trampled a
small section of bushes down around
a small stream.
The dense thicket hid the cow
from passers-by and she covered
her tracks by walking up and down
a small brook. which passed through
her hiding place. There was plenty
of green grass along the brook as
the sun streamed through the trees.
The cow seemed content. but took
of! through the woods when the dog
began to bark.
After a two-hour chase through
the woods the party had to give up
the pursuit. The party climbed over
