'KS HUSBAND'S SLAYERS Widow of Palmyra Police Chief Be. lives He Was Polsoned Rochester, N. Y., Oct. 6,—~Mrs. Hen- rg C. Hilbern of Palmyra, near here, widow of Police Chief Hilbern of that village, today appealed to the com- munity to run down the slayer of her husband. Chief Hilbern died late last Saturday night of what is believ- ed to have been a poison dose ad- ministered in a drink. Chemists of the department of health are analyz ing the contents of the dead man's stomach to ascertain whether poison was the direct cause of death. Mrs. Hilbern today requested the investigation because she said her husband had many enemies due to his racing handicapper. The legal papers concerned a suit for damages flled aguinst Col. James by Miss Adams. prohibition prosecution, and Distriet Attorney Coles, who are cooperating in the campaign. Evidence was said to have been ob- tained by state police, ‘the federal government intervening after the state attorney gencral had submitted afri- davits of the eévidence obtained to the department of justice with a request for cooperation. “Attorney General Daugherty in- tends to go the limit to close Phila- delphia saloons and those in other parts of the state and I will ask in- junctions as soon as I have tangible evidence”, Mr. Coles said. “I talked to HWoth Mr. Daugherty and Mrs, Willebrandt previous to sending out the notices to close. T told them that I would go the limit and I will seek injunctions in every instance where it is found that a suloonkeeper is defying the order. All T need is tangible evidence.” Meanwhile attorneys for the saloon men were gathering their forces for battle. I'rancis J, Maneely, counsel for the Philadelphla Retall Liquor Dealers assoclation, said today that the saloonkeepers would keep their establishments open regardless of the closing order and await further action of federal and state authorities. “So far as I can see,” sald Mr. Maneely, “there is no basis for an ac- tion in ordering saloons to close their doors and tear out the fixtures, I think that when the time comes he will find this thing has been nothing more than a grandstand play.” GIRL SCOUTS AT MIDDLETOWN New Britain Corps Lead Parade and “Merry Go Round” was fllmed at| Let someone try to get it away from the tremendous cost of a million dol- | “Charlie” e ————————— PARLOR SCOUTING GEORGE WINSAIR GOES INTO DISCARD] ~ RACE AT 8T.
