The value of this liquor was placed at §15,000, Richardson Led Gang. It has frequently been said that prior to his leaving for New York, there had been an arrangement be- tween Harris and Richardson that the latter would be notified by telephone as to the movement of the truck. Having received information from Stamford, Richardson and a party are said to have left Jate in the evening for Wallingford, Rarry's Entrance, There it is alleged that Policeman Barry of the Wallingford police de- partment joined the group. When the Harris truck came in sight, it was held up by the gang at the point of revolvers, it is said. Harris had a companion who was acting as a help- er, He had $300 which was taken from him, as the story goes. Follow- ing a conference between members of the gang and ‘“the chief,” nqw said to be Richardson, the stranger was given §1, and told to start back for New York. At this time, another automobile came on the scene and the liquor on the Harris truck was trans- ferred. Richardson Settled Up. Variola, by an arrangement, was supposed to meet the consignment at Southington, After wearying of his wait, he got into consultation with Maietta, and as a result a visit was made on Harris. The latter then told of the theft, Harris is reported to have received $1,000 ffom the orig- inal owners of the liquor. It has also been said that on getting the facts, Variola and his friends demanded a settlement from Richardson and his o | CASTORIA For Infants and Children InUse For Over 30 Years the @igoature of 1 Announces Method of Directing Sound Waves in Straight Line New York, June 21.—Senator Gug- lielmo Marconi, wonder man of wire- less, last night announced the inven- tion of what might be called a radio searchlight by meéans of which radio vés, which can be reflected like light waves, may be sent in a given direction in a heam, instead of being scattered to all points of the com- pass. Will Rid Sea of Terrors The famous Italian said he believed this invention could be utilized in such a manner as to rid the sea of some of its terrors, for with a revolv- ing reflector, the transmitter would constitute a radio lighthouse, capable of flashing guiding beams nearly a hundred miles. Addressing a joint meeting of the Institute of Radio engineers and the American Institute of Electrical en- eineers on his latest discoveries, the inventor said of the proposed radio light: 21, 1922, FIXBONUS STATUS AFTER LONG DEBATE Becomes Next Business Alter Tarill Is Decided a honns Washington, June 21.—Foilowing seven-hour wrangle over the bill, the senate at 6 o'clock last night voted to make that measure the un-| finished bhusiness of the senate im- | Fordney-McCumber Tariff Dbill | The vote was 68 to 2, and this vote, according to all the signs, indicates| the size of the majority by which the bonus bill will be passed.

Could Locate Other Ships “It seems to me that it should be possible to design apparatus by means Of which a ship could radiate or pro- ject a divergent beam of the short wave rays in any desired direction, which rays if coming across a metal- lic object, such as another steamer, would be reflected bhack to a receiver on the sending ship, and thereby im- mediately reveal the presence and hearing of the other ship in fog or thick weather. One further greater advantage of such an arrangement would be that it would be able to give warning of the presence and hearing of ships, even should these s! be unprovided with any kind of 1.dio."” Marconi's radio searchlight bears little resemblance to the battleship searchlight. It is rather a special ar- rangement of wires on towers or masts. Secret System Needed Marconi stated that the reflectors make it possible for the receiver to reproduce a radio telephone song or speech about two hundred times loud- er than is ordinarily possible. What is more, speech is transmitted prac- tically without distortion, and the transmitting aerial.can be used both sending afid receiving at the same time. “In these. days of broadcasting, it may still prove to be very useful to kave a practically new system which will be a very large degree secret when compared to the usual kind of radio,"” he added. Marconi expressed belief that in the develppment of radio communi- cation, the longer waves have so much absorbed the attention of inventors and engineers, that the time has come to conduct research i short wave lengths. radio. No Static Interference Marconi discovered 'that when short waves are used, disturbances caused by static can be said to be al- most non-existing, and the only intér- ference comes from the ignition ap- paratus of automobile and ~motor boats. | “Incidentally,” he added, “I might mention that one of these short wave receivers will act as an accurate de- vice for testing whether or not one's i:nigon system is working all right Some motorists would have a shock if they realized how often their spark plugs are working in a deplorably ir- regular manner.” To overcome static, Marconi first determines the strength of the signal sent by a measuring apparatus and then makes the signal strength equal to that of the distant transmitting stations. Adjustable Voltage “If the signals are unreadable due to static,” Marconi explained, ‘“the measuring apparatus is used to send to an operator at a standard rate of twenty words per minute, five letter code, and the voltage applied to aerial from the local sender is increased un- til complete readibility is obtained.” Thus, Marconi said, he obtained, “at once a very correct estimate of how much power was needed to drive the signal through.” Marconi has discovered that a cer- tain kind of static called ‘grinder,” originates over Africa and another violent ‘click” type over South Am- erica.

The eight were Dial, Glass, King, Myers, Pomerene, Swanson, Underwood and Williams. McCumber's Speech. Senator McCumber, author of the bill, again made a speech in which he declared that, in his opinion, Presi- dent Harding would sign the billy None of the President's spokesmen challenged the statement and the opinion is becoming general about the Capitol that the President will sign the bill. One report, which comes from a well-informed source, is that Senator McCumber and other bonus Senators on the majority side would not agree to postpone consid- eration of the bonus bill until they | had received assurance that the Presi- dent would sign the bill when ili reached him in late August or early September. The motion to make the bonus bill the unfinished business as soon as the tariff is out of the way was an unex- pected move by the majority leaders. Senator Watson explined that owing to charges that the majority was try- ing to dodge the bonus question i had been deemed necessary to put the majority on record that nothing would be permitted to interfere with the enactment of bonus legislation at this session. i The Watson motion was supported by all the Senators who are in favor of any kind of a bonus.
