♦ l e f t behind a trail of bad checks and an abandoned stolen car. The car, which had been traded to a Fleischmanns man, but “dumped” in Arkville, aroused the suspicions of Trooper Joseph Moore and led to the arrest.

They were remanded to the Dela­ware county jail to await extra-, dition to Maine, where charges of prison break are to be added to those for which they were already jailed.

When Trooper Moore requested a license check of the car in Ark­ville, he learned that it had been stolen. Meanwhile, Rivers and Beane had "traded” it to the Fleischmanns resident for a motor scooter, on which they traveled to Ellenville.

While in this area the pair cashed fraudulent checks for small amounts, the largest of which was for $12. Rivers had been employed in this area sev­eral years ago.

After their arrest, the pair was questioned at the Margaretville substation regarding the stolen car, which had been taken in Wil­ton, N. H.

Rivers was being held there for violatioii of probation for a burglary con­viction andiBeáne for a charge of forgery. The pair waived extradition:
