BRISTOL FACTORY
To Discontinue German Branch and
 Move Machinery to England


 The New Departure Manufacturing company of Bristol, which has oper- ated a branch of it's plant at Berlin, Germany, for the past five years. will discontinue it at once. President AL bert F. Rockwell of the company said Monday that their machinery was be- ing crated up at Berlin to be removed to England. MT. Rockwell leaves in about two weeks for Germany. and will complete the details of the clos ing of the German plant. He said the company had a customer who wishes to purchase the factory, and that the details had been undertaken by cable, but it was necessary for htn to go there personally to satisfactorily arrange the sale. The machinery will all be taken to England. where a branch of the big Bristol factory will be located. The German plant has been employing upwards of 200 per- sons, and has been in charge of John F. Wade, former warden of the bor- ough of Bristol. He has lived in Ger many for five years, and will go with the factory to England.
 MT. Rockwell said Monday the Ger man plant was established five years ago for the purpose of protecting their German patents. As there remained no necessity of doing this fin the fu- ture and the same cause existed in England today as there did in Ger many in 1904, the company would commence the manufacture of their goods in the latter country.
 The New Departure Manufacturing company is one of the biggest firms in Bristol. The company was estab- lished in 1888 with less than dozen persons employed and now has in good times over 600 working in its factory in Bristol and about two hundred abroad.

ARRESTED ON FORGERY CHARGE
John Smith Aged 21 Brought Here from Pennsylvana- Claimed He Signed J. F. Conants Name to Check and Secured $22-Had Another but Didn't Get it Cashed

Smith had suit case which he check ed through to Pennsylvania and by that it was possible to get some trace of him, and the New Haven police were asked to get him. This they attempted the case being located-and the con- ductor remembered the fellow with the ticket, but he left the train in that city, whether by plan or upon the impulse of the minute is uncertain, but he gave them the slip there. The next attempt to get him was made at Nanticoke, Pa, where it proved successful after several days waiting. He was habbed when he called for his suit case.
 Smith came back without any trou- ble and will probably be presented in the city court this morning.
 It was due to the prompt .and per- sistent action taken in an endeavor to locate the stranger that 1t was possi- ble to get him. The restaurant keeper could furnish little clue to work on. but by following up every bit of in1 formation and keeping In close pxesi munication with the suit case tkr,,rh low was placed under arrest. AZ sss directed from a distance, the well carried out.
Norwich bulletin., 1909-07-16

At the request of Chief Murphy, John Chemansky, who says his name in Eng fish is John Smith, was arrested in Nanticoke. Pa, by the police on the charge of forgery on Tuesday. Ser geant Twomey was sent there to bring him home and arrived here with him on the $50 train Thursday evening. The fellow is nearly 22 years of age and talks poor English.
 It is claimed that on July 6 Smith forged the name of J. F. Conant of this city and thereby secured the sum of S22.S0 from Greek restaurant keeper in Bath street The check was presented to the restaurant keeper, ap- peared to be all right, and he cashed 1t without hesitation, and would probably have cashed another which it is claim ed Smith had for larger amount but his funds would not allow him to &C., commodate the stranger.
 Some time after the fellow had se- cured the money on the check and the check had been found to be worthless, as the name was a forgery, complaint was made to the police and an effort was made to head off the fellow before he got out of the state, but it missed.
