 Sent Back to New York.
 Two children, who sought entrance into New London county, were sent back to New York, Tuesday, in con nection with the infantile paralysis situation. The children, accompanied by their mothers. were passengers on the New London line steamer Tues day morning. They were detained by Inspector Frank Savage and were compelled to return to New York on the 8.55 a. ID. train The women and children were bound for Baltic.
 Otherwise there is no change in the local situation. No cases of the disease were reported Tuesday from neither this cgty nor surrounding places and the children at the con- tagion ward of Bacl1us hospital are doing nicely.
 Thirteen new cases of infantile par alysis were reported Monday in towns throughout the state to Dr. John Tor ringtOn Black, secretary of the state board of health This is the largest number repOTteds in a day since the outbreak of the disease in COnnecti- cut. Two cases were reported from Stratford and one each from Fairfield, Sufield, Derby, Hamden, Waterbury, East EIafIIOlGy SOuLn w W1nQSOT, Windsor Locks, Naugatuck, Chatham and Windham.
 There are at present 1855 cases in the state of which the board has rec ord and of these 139 were reported in July and 46 thus far in August The distribution by countries is as fol- lows: New Haven, B; Fairfield, 6: New London, 16; Hartford, Il; ToI- land. 6 LitchfeId, ); Windham and OIiddleseX, one each.
 The expert now at work gathering data in the southwestern part of the state have traced the Neriden case to BridgepOrt, having ascertained that the afflicted child had been visiting family in Bridgeport in which there was a case of the infection. The mu- nicipalities in which the disease cen ters at present are New Haven, Bridgeport and Stamford. No new reports had been received at the of fee of the state board from these places late yesterday afternoon. Of the deaths there is no reliable record yet.
 Exclusion of all children from cities and towns in cases where Parents do not report their children for eXami- nation and observation to the health officers, is recommended by the state authorities. It is estimated that dur ing July more than 800 children a day were smuggled into Connecticut, through river and Sound ports jit- neys and trOlleys. The reports receiv- ed yesterday came from scattered ter ritory rather than from Centers of the malady.

NORWICH MAN TAKES
 FLIGHT IN AIRSHIP.
P. D. Mabrey Was Passenger With
 Allan Loughead, Daring Aviator.

Er D. NIabrey, son of MT. and Mrs. Louis habrey, of this city, who is principal of the Bennington High school and who is traVeling through California tutoring, had the SenSatiOn- al experience of riding in hydrOplane with Allan LOughead, a daring aviator.
 A recent issue of the Santa Barbara, Cal, Morning Press comments as fol lows on the flight:
 Allan Loughead had an opportunity late vest erday to prove 10 his own satisfaction and to the satifaCtiOn also of a passenger and of many spectators that his hydrOpIane is perfectly safe eVek: though the engine goes dead" AftGE more than 2,500 flights in this machine without a single stoppage be- cause of engine trouble, or for other reasons, MT. Loughead had his first serious test. When re was at an alti- tude of about 200 feet tive screws in the magnetO brOke-as he found after ward-and he noticed that the engine was slowing up, He started to descend and made a perfect landing in the water Had he been given two sec onds' more tirne he would have brought the machine on it's runway, but he was lowed to shore by Captain GOurley. Before this incident MT. LOughcaG made several flights, his passengers in CIuding F D. Mabrey and H. B. Brad ford of Bennington, Vt, guests at the Potter and Mir. WOrden of San YsidrO. MT. Mabrey and MT Bradford were so delighted that they are to make fur ther trips, and AIr. Worden also be- came an enthusiast.
 When the European war broke out MT. ATabrey was in Berlin, Germany, at the time and had a thrilling eX- perience in getting out of Berlin by riding in a freight car.

BREMEN MAY PUT
 INTO NEW LONDON
Runors to That Effect Are Being Cir
 cuIated About the City.

SAiGtEG fSDCuE LTlG SlEys
 Rumors that the undersea, freighter Bremen, which is reported on it's way to this country from Germany would put into New London, were being in dustriOuSly circulated Tuesday, says the New London Day. The presence of two, who are said to be connected with the enterprise, lent color to the reports.
 Other circumstances have tended to- ward a corrObOratiOn of the rumor. It was reported that @ power boat has been cruising and patrOling the waters between Fort Pond Bay. Long Island, to within 1000 feet of Fishers Island and the lack of any definite motive for the boats actions has been interpreted that she was there to give to the Deutschland's sister boat. Sea captains claim, however. that there would be no necessity for such cruising as the undersea craft could make New London harbor with out any fear of the allies vessels as there are none in this section.
 Information was received from Bal timOre that quantities of nickel and rubber, which are the commodities which are sought in Germany, and which formed the cargo of the Deutschland on it's return trip. were being shipped to this city. This al- so lent color to the rumOr, but inquiries failed to reveal that either of these commodities were being re- ceived there.
 It has been learned, however that agents of some shipping company have been here trying to find wharf accommodations upon which a ware house could be erected for the storage of goods. Great secrecy is observed by every one concerned in the en- terprise. One rumOr has it that the state pier is to be utilized for this purpose but none of the officials con- nected with the pier will admit that they know anything about it.
 Should it be true that the German submarine Bremen is planning to come to New London and unload its cargo, this city and it's easily acces- sible harbor will receive a great ad- Vertisement all over the world. What ever may develop from all the rumors now current both here and in the other cities of the Atlantic coast. it is likely that a few days will see the final development.

"The return of the Connecticut troops in September would be like the Duke of York;" said General Cole. "The Duke of York marched his soldiers up the hill and then he marched them down again. It seems probable that the troops will stay on the border longer than a month.
