Brown, a Truckman, May be Brought Before United States Court Prosecutor Woods Gives Case to'District Attorney Smith Foll;)wing Carting Away of Seized Barrel. Constable George A. Stark and Harry Brown, a truckman, are the principals in a report to he made this afternoon’ by Prosecuting Attorney Joseph G. Woods to Edward L. Smith, United States district attorney, for possible use in prosecution by the fed- eral authorities of the agnstable and the truckman on charges of illegally transporting spirituous and intoxicat- ing liquor through the city's streets. The constable is alleged to have seized by attachment in favor of Nich- olas Nesta a barrel, of wine at the home of Nicholas Cononello of 213 Washington . street, last Wednesday afternoon. The wine is gaid to have heen turned over to Brown, who, after being assisted by the constable in loading the stuff into an auto truck, drove off. Sergeants W. P, McCue and Matthias Rival met Brown on the highway’ and seized the wine. = Await- ing orders from the prosecutor, the . police allowed the storage of the stuff in Stark’'s garage. 1t appears ‘that Constable Stark was given the writ to serve by a local attorney. The action resulted from Canonello’'s refusal to pay for 600 pounds of grapes sold to him by Nes- ta, claiming that the consignment was of poor quality. The cgnstable found that the grapes had been converted | into’ wine and, despite protestations | by Canonello and his wife, removed the barrel from the cellar to the street and then assisted in loading it into Brown's truck, it is alleged.

Midway between Hong Kong and Swatow the outlaws 'escaped in sampans. The Sui-An reached Hong Kong at noon today.

An attempt to “double cross” a cus- *omer in a liquor deal, charging whis- ey rates for plain water; a mad chase along the Berlin turnpike with two automobiles traveling more than 60 miles an hour, a revolver pointed at a man’s head and the recovery of the deposit paid for the “whiskey"-—all the material for a modern short story —featured a sensational police case Saturday afternoon. As a result Charles and S8amuel Giardino, former proprietors of the Hotel Grand and who were mixed up irn the Richard- son-Greenberg rum scandal, will be given a hearing tomorrow night in the Newington town court before Justice L. Stanley Welles. Tt is not known what charge will be preferred against the two as the authorities decline to state. Hint Others Are Involved It is understood that Prosecutor Davis, of the Newington town court, conferred with State's Attorney Hugh M. Aleorn at the county buflding this morning. Owing to several new phases in the case, the authorities handling it have declined to say whether there are any new developments. Hints are made that the new scandal involves many other persons other than those mentioned, and that several arrests are impending. The state police have been called in it is said and are conducting an investigation. Mr. Welles declined this afternoon to state what charge has been placed against the Giardinos, and he also de- clined to say whether or’' not warrants will be {ssued for others mentioned in the case by the former proprietors of the Hotel Grand. Arrested By Local Police The arrests of the two brothers who were caught in the net a year ago, but who were subsequently allowed to go, without trial, was made at the home of Samuel Giardino, at 610 Arch street, by Sergeants William P. McCue and Michael J. Fiynn and Policeman Gustave Hellberg. The arrests were made at the instigation of the New- ington authorities, and the prisoners were turned over into the custody of Grand Jurors E. Stanley Welles and George Davis, and Constable Walter Canfleld, of Newington. The alleged affalr in which the principals, happened ing” in a liquor deal. the local police, the Giardinos impli- cated Ernest Hadfleld and Charles| Hadfield, proprietors of a store in the Hotel Grand building: Edward Hor- witz and Alphonse Mira. After the Giardino brothers had been taken into custody, they were questioned at the local police station. It is the claim of the accused broth- ers, that Stanley had attempted to dupe them out of $50, and when they discovered that they had been deceived they followed Stanley and recovered money they had paid as a deposit for the purchase of four bar- rels of liquor. ‘Whiskey Ran From Sleeve, Aceording to the Giardinos' story, they met Stanley on Saturday morn- ing at a garage on the turnpike in Newington, on an appointment en- gineered by Horwitz. The brothers and one of the Hadfields motored to the garage to purchase 25 gallons of whiskey for each of the party. This whiskey, it was understood, was to have been stored in the garage by Stanley. Samples of the booze were supposed to have been drawn from one of the barrels. According to Charlie Giar- dino, he noticed that Stanley was using a rubber tube which was up his sleeve, pouring the liquid into glasses for the prospective purchasers to sample. A deposit of $50 on a deal of §1,800 was then made by the New Britain men. The brothers then boarded their automobile for this city to get the remainder of the purchase money. On their return to the garage, it was found that Stanley was missing. Information was secured that would return in a short time. 1In the meantime the Giardinos examined the barrels and discovered that they con- tained plain water. Soon afterward Stanley was seen as he sped down the (Continued on Twelfth Page).

Somerville, N. J., Nov. 20.—(By As sociated Press)-—The Somerset county grand jury convened at 10 6'clock to day to recejve evidence in the Hall- Mills murder case. A detachment of state troopers ar rived early and patrolled the streets about the courthouse. Others were de- tatled to guard the witnesses. A large crowd of curious persons had gathered in the courthouse square sometime before the time for the grand jury to convene. Schneider Is Called Raymond Schneider who notified the police that he had found the bod- ies of Rev. Fdward W. Hall and Mrs. Tleanor R. Mills, his choir singer slain under an old crabapple tree on the Phillips farm September 14, was the| first witness called.

Moreover a dead line was estab- lished around the structure. A state trooper broke a twig from a tree, placed it on the ground 25 feet from the building and ordered none to cross without permission. About 100 women, however, had gained access to the courthouse. They mounted to a second floor balcony which commands a view of nearly all the interior of the courthouse. lcan- ing over the railing they gazed at witnesses seated outside the jury room, and, apparently ignorant of thel fact that grand jury proceedings are gecret, asked repeatedly if they could not get into the “trial”.
