ACCUSED OF THEFT
 { OF ABOUT $4O,OOO
Eric Verrill Had Been Hitting
 High Spots at Hartford

New Haven, Aug. 7-Held on charge of apprOpriating $4O,OO0 be- longing to the United States govern ment, Erie VerriIl, formerly of this city, was arrested by federal agents in New York Tuesday. He is locked up in the Fairfield county jail in Bridge port and will be given a hearing be- fore United States Commissioner Hugh J. DaVerty in September.
 Nerrill has been hitting the high spots" around Hartford for some weeks past and flashing a bankron of large proportions, claiming that he had "cleaned up' in Philadelphia by gambling, it is said. He had two au- tomobiles, Simplex roadster and a Mercer touring car, on which he was Wiling to wager amounts up to $1,OOO that he could lower the speed records rom Hartford to neighboring cities. He has also been prominent in the night life of the capital city recently
 Other Escapades.
 VerrilIS eScapadeS in the past few years have made him notorious, es- pecially in sporting circles. At one time he was self-appointed scout for Connie Mack of the Philadelphia Atn- 1etics. He also served as secretary of the Connecticut State league during
 
 Last year he advised friends in Hartford that he had been married and was en route from Albany to Sar- atoga Springs on his wedding trip, only to reappear later and admit the hoax.
 In June of this year he again came into the limelight by being sued for $4,00O by Helen Began and Anna Pinard of Meriden who alleged that they ran into his unlighted automo- bile on the road from Wallingford.
 Committed to Asylum.
 Tn 1915 Verrill was arrested in Hartford on a charge of opening the telephone booth in the Hartford post office. A search of his person re- /, vealed three letters which it was said he had taken from the special deliv- cry compartment at that office. Fol lowing his arrest at that time he was bound over to the federal grand jury held before Commissioner Richard F. Carroll. He was adjudged insane by Judge Thomas in the federal court here and committed to an asylum.
 On two other occasions VerriIl also was arrested once on charge of passing worthless checks and once for obtaining goods under alleged false pretenses.
 When arrested this time Verrill had on lieutenants uniform of the United States army and it is thought that he might have received a com mission during the war. He had money deposited in both the Mer chants bank of this city and the Hartford-Aetna National bank, the of ficials of which have been notified to. appear when the case comes to trial next month.
