LOCAL FIRM IS.
 ExONERATED BY THE GOVERNMENT
Didn't Ship Cartridges for Germany By Way of
 Holland

The charge of the public informa- ton bureau that Carl Heynen. German agent in this county. who was one of the powers behind the formation of the Bridgeport Projectile O., had con- spired with the Dutch mission in this country to ship munitions into Ger many by way of Holland has been repudiated by the state department. A formal apology may be made today.
 Heynen, one of von Bernstorff's pro teges, was one of the founders and of- fcials of the Bridgeport Projectile Co.,, when the plant was opened as a munitions manufactory shortly after the war. It was charged at that time that Heynens chief duties were to obtain allied contracts for munitions and then fail to fill them, thus harn- pering the prosecution of the war against Germany.
 The government obtained possession of telegram signed "Hatzfeldt, which advised Heynen, who then bore the official title of treasurer of the pro- jectile company, to sell 100000 chests of cartridges and 200 tons of powder to Holland. The public Information committee then drew the inference that Holland had entered into a league with German agents to supply the Teu- tons with war munitions.
 The official disclosure proceeded to state after quoting the telegram that '.it has long been an open secret that Holland is merely a way-station for shipments of contraband into Ger many The Dutch minister, Chevalier Won Rappard. them called at the state department and protested that this tel egram did not justify the accusation made against his government.
 Walter H. Knight president of the Bridgeport Projectile Co, stated today to a Farmer representative that he could positively say the shipment di- rected by the telegram was never made. He was unable to say whether or. not shipments of munitions had been made to Sweden or Denmark by 'Heynen.

 been necessary to pay more for coal, materials and power to say nothing of difficulty in keeping employees. He declared the situation was particular ly bad in this city. where motormen and conductors worked for a few weeks and then left to take jobs in the munition factories
 The general trend throughout the country. said Attorney, Berry, Is that the five cent fare is no longer req sonable standard. Even in New Eng land increases have been granted to various lines Among those which had raised fares he mentioned the Danbury 6 Bethel, and the Shore Line to New London. He said the Hart ford & Springfield line had been charging the six cent fare for years.
 City Attorney Comley stated that if the increase Is unjust the court should enjoin the company from putting 1t into effect until the Public Utilities Commission has been able to hold a hearing on the petition. Attorney Berry declared that if an injunction is granted it would mean a loss of $3.o00 q day to the company in this city alone. To secure the company against this loss, the city would have to file a bond with the court.
 City Attorney Comley said he did not think the city would have the power to file any such bond. There- upon the company's counsel made the proposal about the $1 books and the possible refund. For that reason Judge Curtis was not called upon to pass upon the injunction question.
 If the plan of selling the books un- der this agreement is adopted it will or course apply only to this city. v The Connecticut Go. posted signs in It's barns last night warning conduc- tors and notormen that after Oct. 1. any person who does not pay the six cent fare must be treated as an "evader" and dealt with as "evader of the five cent fare have been. This means that anybody who doesn't come across with the six cents must be or- dered off the car by the crew, and if he refuses, a policeman must be call- ed. sxss zst1k
