would be too quick to please Bridge port and Stratford people who are aroused to high pitch of excitement and indignation by the crime. The men are formally held on a charge of highway robbery. Other lesser charges could also be placed against them, but on the present charge sen tence of 30 years in States prison can be imposed if their guilt is esta b. lished.
 Every clue Is being run to earth. and it will not be surprising if a surprising local angle is developed be- fore the day is done. On every hand words of commendation for the work of the Bridgeport and Stratford polics are heard. Last night the Stratford men found another revolver on Bur- believed discarded by the men when the posse was close on their trail.
 Running Down Clues.
 Restaurants in the vicinity of the railroad station and the Congress street cars barns of the Connecticut company, are also being carefully in- vestigated in hopes of locating addi- tional information regarding the movements of the men before they came to Bridgeport.
 The police have reason to believe they came to the city previous to Tuesday night, and have located that man for man answered the de- scription of the gunmen.
 The great cooperation of police departTn rents in other cities in the county and state is remarked on all sides. Milford, Orange and New Ba- ven police were on the job in a. re- markedly short space of time. com mandeering high powered automo- piles and rushing to Stratford with riot guns and sawed off Sh otguns. In less than 45 minutes after the attack was made at Congress and Middle streets, none than 200 Bridgeport, Stratford, Milford, Orange and New Haven police were milling around Stratford in automobiles, with motor cycles and all armed to the teeth.

 Sheriff George Werner says he has the gun used by Ward.
 "I can produce Wards gun when it is needed.I said the sheriff, and it will show that more than one shot was fired.
 How about Peters gun?" he was asked.
 T can't say anything about that" he replied.
 Although the sheriff says he does not hold the discharged shells from the eight bullets said to have been fired in the fight near the Kenisco reservoir, he is sure they are in safe custody and will be produced when necessary State police found only one near the scene of the gun fight described by Ward.
 Bullet Pierced Vest.
 The sheriff also displayed the gar ments found on Peters and showed that a bullet had pierced the vest and shirt in front and passed through the coat, vest and shirt in the back This indicated. he said, that Peters must have had his coat open when the shot that killed him was fired. The entrance of investigators for the Peters family has added to the tension and com plicated an already mysterious situation

It is definitely known that States Attorney Homer s. Cummings expects to call court the first day after the Memorial day holiday, and hurry the prosecu- ton of the three New York gangsters.
 That this is true was more than evident this morning in City court, when Judge William R. BOardman Sternly annOunc- ed that one day was all that he would allow the accused to ob- tain local counsel and arrande defense, and that tomorrow cAc cNhoC hAhSb yu OlI dtS IdI' dS this court is concerned" The bonds were set at S2O.OO0 cash for each, and immediately after ward, the three hardest looking prisoners ever seen by many court attaches were taken to the BertilliOn room.
