the taking Of tlf automobile. Wheth
er Tyles is also in Jail is not yet
; known here Farnsworth's alleged Of
Tense here was the taking of some
betting from the Cotton shops. Pre-
vious to the bringing of this charge
he was in court with Tyles on a charge
of petty larceny in connection with
the loss of watch and money by
Frank Shields. Both pleaded guilty,

| Further investigation of the stolen
Ford car to-day brought to light the
fact that except for the difference OF
one digit in the engine number, thought
| to be mistake in reading, the car de-
scription is the same as that OF one
stolen from Frank NJ. Aldrich of Bur
lington recently. This would tally with
| Farnworth's statement Of where he
and Tyles took the ear. As sent out
! from Stamford. the engine number OF
the Ford was 2s9l499, while the num-
Der of Aldrich's engine was 23ai4a9.
Aldrich had Vermont registration plates
with the number 29-95l.
These plates are now beyond doubt
somewhere in New Hampshire, as PHI
letus w. Vail, summer camper at
Lake Sunapee, reported this morning
to the secretary of states Office that
his garage was broken into few days
ago and the New Jersey plates l-508..
found on the Ford, were stolen with
some other things. Later, ne states,
two young men were observed taking
off Vermont or Massachusetts, plates
from small car, probably Ford, and
attaching New Jersey plates. He had
the idea that the car must have been
stolen and communicated his suspic-
ions to Charles Pierce, chief clerk Of
the automobile department A woman
and child were in the car with the
two young men. Mr.. Vail wrote.
Governor James Hartness and Mrs.
Hartness and Henry B. Shaw, secre-
tary of civil and military affairs, and
Mrs. Shaw were in the city to-day.
