AUTOMOBILE DRIVERS MUST
keep TAIL LIGHIs BURNING

City Marshal John Davenport says
il may become necessary for him t.
file complaints against automobile
drivers who fail to keep their tail
lights burning. He declared that he
would regret to take such action but
that people seem to pay little atten-
lion to the warnings he has given re-
garding same. The law provides
that Goth head and tail lights must
be kept burning on machines operat-
ed after night. Some drivers are
negligent and let their tail lights go
out and fail to ,re-light them, beiiey-
ing an excuse of didn't know it was
out" will satisfy the officers, but the
city marshal says this excuse viii not
go with him any longer and that II
drivers are caught without tail lights
burning complaint will be filed.

Germany Says "Sub" Bremen
 Has Arriued In New London

home from her voyage overseas: You can't do it again"
 All the newspapers today print a sketch of Captain Schwartzkoff, cap tain of the Bremen, who was for a long time in the service of the North German Lloyd Steamship Company. He served for years on the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse and dis tinguished himself in rescuing work in the Hoboken Pier fire in 1900. Cap tain Schwartzkoff was the first officer of the Prinz Frederick Wilhelm when the war broke out. The steamer was then at Spitzbergen on Polar excur- sion, but succeeded in making home port without encountering the British fleet.
 New London, Baltimore and Norfolk have been reported as the destination of the Bremen. Recently there has been much activity in New London by officials of the Eastern Forwarding Company, American agents for the German merchant submarines. A re- port from Westerly. R. l., September 25, said a tug had left there to meet a German submarine which was on her way to New London.

The Connecticut town jumped to a point of prime interest and news papers have found it necessary to de- scribe the situation by the aid of maps. They are also dilating on the history of the town.
 The news of the Bremen relieves the protracted tension which had grown intense as expected arrival of the submarine was delayed from week to week Apparently authentic rum- ors had been circulated that the Bre- men sailed early in August Hence fears were entertained in some quar- ters that something had gone wrong with her and the report of her arrival had been greeted by the newspapers as paving the way for the establish ment of a regular submarine service between Germany and the United States and as answering the alleged taunt of Germany's enemies when the submarine Deutschland returned
