 POLICE TO ACT
Continued from Page One

Continued from Page One deep knowledge of automobiles and their parts had no trouble in launch ing it with ease. Forming the Con necticut Accessories Company, he ad- vertised extensively that he would secure any automobile goods at the price local dealers paid. This he did by securing them through job bers who recognized him upon. the authority of 8 printed card. Ship ments were made direct and often at much saving ito the customer from whom he first showed that the goods could be purchased and then charg- ed 8 per annum for his services If the scheme had been carried on with capital it would have worked well as it has elsewhere in the ceun-5 try.-zs
 In the instance of Mrs Gardner. and others, however. Griffith accept ed the cash which he is alleged to have hypothecated and then had the goods shipped c. O. D., to the cus- toner. Until his books have been examined it will not be known the extent to which he operated.
 Detectives from this city believed that they had located Griffith in New York city on Thursday of this week but only arrived at the hotel in time to learn s<that their bird had flown from the hotel in which it was be
  on rumors tha the had gone to Chi cago, they returned to this city. To- day, however, the trail is said to lead elsewhere.
 Harry A. Griffith came to this city about two years ago, in the interests of the Standard Oil company. As the salesman, for Vacuum oil he did a fourishing business at the start, living first at the Stratheld and later at the Atlas hotel. Tn the latter place he is said to have met Miss 1 Boyle; a handsome woman whose fas- einations involved Griffith.
 Griffith lavished money upon her entertainment, and though Miss Boyle left the city before his activities came to the ears of the police his where abouts may be traced through cores pondence between the couple After a change in the sales force of the Standard Oil company. Griffith undertook the agency of other auto mobile oils which were not success fuI.
 Being a good dancer, and having taught the terpsichorean art before 1 coming to the Park City, he became a we'll known figure on the floors of Brooklawn, Quilty's and the Casino l floors, and established a school of his 1 own which at first f1ourished with | many pupils of good families in Bridgeport.
 He then went into the accessories supply company formed through his l ingenuity.
 Besides the charge of embezzIe- ment to be preferred against him by Mrs. Gardner and others, there are i other charges of passing fraudulent 1 checks to be offered against him if 1 he should be returned here for trial.
