FINISHES CROSS-OVER TODAY Necessitated to Accommodate 7 Minute Service on East Main St. A gang of 25 or 30 men have been busily employed hy the Connecticut company at William's corner, near the powerhouse, since yesterday morning in an effort to have the cross-over completed by tonight in expectation of the stopping of the jitneys on their routes tomorrow and to handle the seven minute service which has been promised the city by the company. The cross-over has been placed mid- way between the corner and the sharp curve from the power station. This will permit plenty of sight for cars coming from New Britain and Plain- ville to see any cars in the stretch which may be making a crossing at the time. That the job will be fin- ished today appeared certain at noon when the rails were in their new po- sition and the spiking and filling in were ready to be started. PREMIER BRIAND MAY CROSS THE ATLANTIC Said to Favor French Sentiment Official Presence at Conference for Disarmament. Paris, July 14 (By Associated Press)—Political circles in general look with favor upon the suggestion that Pemier Briand go to Washington personally to represent France at the disarmament conference, but since 1. appears that the conference is not likely to be held before November it has been pointed out that the par- liament will be then in session thus raising complications over the ques- tion of the premier’s personal at- tendance. 4 The parliamentary regime, as is well known requires the responsible head of the government to be ready at all times to appear before the par4 liament to set forth the government's views on important questions and to be ready to reply to interpellations. Premier Briand was able to go to London during the parliamentary session because hé could be back ¢n short notice if his presence was neces- sitated by developments in the parlia- mentapy debates. The: trip to Wash- ington, however, it is pointed out, presents a far more serious problem. In parliamentary circles it is noted that the chamber of deputies after the summer recess, will have to take up the grave problem of French finances, including budget questions of such importance that the presence of the responsible head of the government would seem to be required. No opposition to Premier ®oing to Washington, materialized thus far, but it is re- garded in political circles as quite lixely that the strong minority in the chamber opposed to the govern- ment will raise objection if the sug- gestion becomes official. TENNIS PLAYERS NAMED Pacific Coast Will Send Four Men to the East to Briand's however, has Compete in National Champlonship Tournaments. Boston, July 14.—The Pacific -coast will send east for the national lawn tennis chempionship tournaments ih singles ;7nd doubles this summer a team o! four men, according to ad- vices received here today. Howard and Robert Kilsey, the Western sec- tional champions, will team again on eastern courts and will play also in the singles competition. Wm. F. Johnstone, Pacific singles titlist, and Wallace Davis will complete the team. From the fact that Grifiin, Johnsténe’s partner, in the champion- ship doubles play last year was not named, it was assumed that John- stone and Davis would team up. LOSE TO BRIDGEPORT. The New Britain State Trade school was defeated 5-2 by the fast Bridge- port State Trade school team yester- day morning at Seaside park, Bridge- port.

Bresnahan who testified vesterday that Barney visited his house in North Cambridge at midnight on May 31, 1920, the day after Barney and two others escaped from the state prison said that he met Barney a month later in Northampton at the home of Joseph Meisse. The witness said he went there with Edward O'Halloran, a Newton police inspector Three days later while stopping at a hotel in Greenfleld he was aroused about 2 a. m. and found Dist. Attorney Tufts and O’Halloran downstairs. The three drove to the railroad sta- tion in Northampton where Tufts talked with Earl. O.

Bresnahan he was not. “You saw anounceme: that he was?" “I saw an announcement in the paper that he was not.” Bresnahan said h: had convi Tufts that they could lnducemg;?;z: to surrender and O’Halloran sug- gested that they talk with him. Bres- nahan declined to tell where Barney | Va8 staying at any time he said. * told them it was none of their bus- iness and if they wouldn’t let me handle it our way I'd wash my hands of the whole thing.” Up to that time the witness said, no information so far ac he knew had been given to any police office in Northampton or- to the district at- torney of that district as to Barney's whereabouts. Barney would not agree to sur- rander unless he could see his moth- er, Bresnahan said.” After two or three days thé witness took the elder Barney and his wife to Northampton.
