The motor vehicle department is
now accepting mail applications for
renewals of 1913 motor vehicle reg

er Mccarthy who urged motorists to
be sure and sign applications and to
use the mails before February 18th
as the usual heavy rush after that
date will preclude the department
guaranteeing prompt service to mail

Most of the states, according to
the commissioner. will use but one
numberplate for 1914, placed on the

cases. Many states will supplement
this plate with a seal or sticker for
the windshield. Only three other
states, besides Connecticut, will use
two plates on each vehicle.

having been in the station after it
closed but denied having taken any
thing.
The boys told the detectives that
they knew Mr.. Constantine we'll
and used to hang out in his station.
They said they found his front door
open at about 9 o'clock last night,
and went in thinking to call Mr.
Constantine, but were frightened by
an approaching policeman. They
then jumped out of the rear win
dow and fled.
The other break last night was
reported by Louis Fried. proprietor
of Fried's Service Station, 1913 North
Elm street. Mr. Fried reported the
loss of four new Goodyear Synthe-
tic tires and two recaps valued at
500, and gasoline coupons worth

He said the sale could not be made
without such a mortgage as the
prospective purchaser had offered
only 500 900 in cash and a large tax
balance to the city prevents execu-
ton Of mortgage from another
source.
Mr.. Finklestein said the 100000
offer would be acceptable since the
immediate sale of the premises Is
desirable. He said, "If we don't sell
the property now we will never sell
it." Speaking of benefits to the city
he said purchaser can be secured
who will pay taxes, employ addi-
tional workers, and render general
improvements to the city.
It was pointed out that Mayor
John S. Monagan is out Of the city
and the corporation counsel was not
available today to discuss the new
offer or disposition of the old one.
Each of the buyers has made de-
post of $1,000 pending court sane
ton Of the sale. 1t was indicated
that further negotiations will be
conducted with the first prospec-
tive buyer before another motion
is presented in court next Friday.
Judge McEvoy referred to efforts
made by the late Mayor Scully to
obtain all that was possible for the
city on the Mill street property. He
pointed out that the mayor worked
without compensation in trying to
salvage all he could for the NUM-
cipaity. The exact amount of the
tax debt was not disclosed but 1t
was said to be about $4,000.
Questioned about the necessity of
a mortgage from the city, Mr.. Fink
lestein said the property could not
be released without release on the
tax liens.
Some of the Mill street buildings
are more than 100 years old and in
need of many repairs, it was point
ed when the lawyer spoke of the de-
sire to sell as soon as possible. The
3l3 Mill street property is occupied
by about 10 or IA tenants at the
present time.
