Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait yesterday
in New York on her return from Ten

In response to questions she said:
"Old lobbies from all the fights that

Cox Holds Up Dinner
to Visit War Veterans
Soothes Tubercular Patti
ents While Democrats
Fret and Wonder at De-
lay.
Especial to The Times. :,

New Haven, Aug. 2S-There are 392
veterans of the war at the United
States Public Health Hospital at ALL
Most of them are suffering from tu-
.berculosis which came to them while
they were fighting overseas or doing
duty in this country at camps.
The life at this hospital is not the
sort of life that cheers, though the
authorities do all that can be done
for the men, many of whom had their
lungs scorched by gas in battle But
all of them are engaged in a grim
and continuous fight against an all
ment which is more or less hone
less.
But today they have something to
talk about, something else than dis
cussion of what the doctors say about
their condition. For while a thous-
and diners at Savin Rock yesterday
afternoon waited for an hour for the
coming of Gov. James Cox of Ohio
wondered and protested and fretted
over the delay in his appearance, the
governor was bending over the beds
of the patients in the United States
hospital asking the men how it hap
pened, what regiments they served in
and told them all that they mustn't
give up there any more than they
gave up when somebody over across
the water said Lets co.
And the fact that busy man,
very busy man, man who was
sought by everybody all over the
country found time to come and talk
to them in their cots and in their re-
ci1ning chairs brought more sunshine
and medicine to the hospital than
treatment could give in a month And
the patients talked shyly with the
governor until he made them smile
and all night and today there was a
buzz of conversation and 1ighthearted-
ness throughout the hospital replac-
ing the hopeless, dreary round of ex-
istence which marks the veterans life
here.
And Gov. Cox didn't explain to the
waiting diners at Savin Rock what
kept him.

$4,000
SWINDLE
CHARGE
William P. Garrett Ar
rested in New York
and Brought Back
Here for Violation of
the Conditional Bill Of
Sale Law-Said To Be
Wanted in New Haven
Also.

Alleged to have swim died numerous
people in this vicinity out of approx
mately $4,000 by viola tions of the
conditional bill of sale law, William
P. Garrett, of New Haven and Brook
lyn, was arrested yesterday in New
York City by Detective Sergeant Ed
ward Wheeler, of the local police de-
partment. CARROTS arrest was
brought about through a complaint
entered by the Morris Plan bank, of
Bridgeport, from which firm he is
said to have secured $1,032.
According to the story told in the
City court this morning, it appears
that Garrett was formerly connected
with the Progressive Motor Sales Co,
with headquarters in New Haven and
a branch office in Elm street, this
city. He is alleged to have started
operations by purchasing a truck from
an automobile manufacturing con-
cern on conditional bill of sale, and
then securing $1,000 from the Motor
Vehicle Finance company. of New
Haven, on the truck.
In his agreement with the finance
company, Garrett was allowed to
keep the truck in his sa1esroom on
the condition that it should not be
sold. He is alleged to have violated
this contract by selling the machine
to man in Meriden, for $1,000, this
deal also being worked through a con-
ditional bill of sale. Garrett then
came to Bridgeport and according to
allegations sold the conditional bill of
sale to the Morris Plan company for
s1,032. By operating in this manner
the auto salesman is said to have dou.
bled his profits on all transactions.
Garrett at one time employed 15
statesmen. and is now in financial
difficulties with some of these, ac-
cording to information secured this
morning. Through other alleged un-
lawful activities of the same nature
as the one enacted here, Garrett is
said to have swindled business men
out of a sum amounting to $4,000.
The Progressive Motor Sales company
is now in state of bankruptcy, and
Garrett will probably be called upon
to answer more charges than the one
preferred against him by the local
bank. Bridgeport police received
word this morning that the man is
wanted in New Haven.
When arraigned in the City court
today, on charges of obtaining money
under false pretenses, Garrett,
through his attorney, Abraham Beck,
of New y ork City, waived examina-
ton an& was bound over to the Sep
tember term of the Superior court.
Bonds were fixed >at $1,000, and Gar
rett svas attempting to secure this
amount at noon today. Russell Cate,
of the Metropolitan Carriage COM
pany. of this city, presented evidence
to the court this morning. Cate is
also connected with the Motor Vehi-
Gle Finance company, of New Haven.

the Hartford delega ton is certainly
