were settled satisfactorily to all con-
eerned At the meeting Mr.. Jones
stated that the supply of ice for Will

and that he desired to carry out the
terms of the ice contract in every par
| ticular and that in the future, resi-

! In the opinion Of some members Of
the local police department, the two
men who put over the hold-up and
robbery at the saloon of Caron Bros.
j in Greeneville, Norwich. Thursday
night, are none other. than the two,
who took shot at Officer Mclean in
| this city last Friday morning while
the latter was chasing them up North
street. The local authorities were no.
titled by the Norwich police to keep
a. sharp watch for the men, but moth
ing had been seen Of them in this sec
| ton up to Friday night. These same
men won't have to pull similar
stunt more than once more before they
will get nabbed.
