It was recalled that Attell figured prominently In the world series scandal, Denies Paying Fallon $20,000 “Isn't It a fact,” asked the attor- ney, “that you paid Willlam J. 1"al- lon $26,000 to represent you, Abe Attell and J.

So we're even at that,” was Roth- stein's reply. The referee Rothstein. Scandal Sore Spot. “This Chicago baseball thing iz a sore spot with me,” explained bth- stein, _apologetically. “The grand jury there gave me a clean bill." Whean more questions were asked about the White Sox, scandal ® and convergations with “Sport” (I. J.) Sullivan, Rothstein became wrathy and refused to answer “such silly J questions.” “Did’ you have Abe Attell just hefore the Cincinnati world series?" Chadbourne asked. Rothstein dodged further questions, calling ' them ‘“an outrage” and “silly.” “Do you know 'a ball ‘player named Burns?” he was asked by Attorney Carl Auvstrian. “He knows whether T do,” said Tothstein, pointing to Attorney Chad- bourne: Finally, Rothstein said, “Burns came up and ‘introduced himself to me in the Hotel Astor and I insulted him,” “Do ‘you know William J. Kelly of Boston?” asked Mr, Chadhourne. Rothstein was visibly angered. He at first refused to answer the ques- ! ¢ tion, but Mr, Coffin told him he must answer, and finally Rothstein said he did know Ielly. “Ts she an attorney?” he was then asked. “Yes,"” replied the witness in a strong voice, “and I would call 1nm & blackmailer, too.” “Did you engage William J. Kelly to represent you in the White Sox world series scandal?" Again Rothsteln hesitated. he replied: “Jump Into The Hudson." “That's silly. If I were a fr)n] like you I'd jumpginto the Hudson river. At that point Mr. Coffin told 1he witness he would have to answer the questiof respectfully. He explained ' that Chadbourne hsd informed him of a definite pase- pdse in asking the questions \\Ili(‘fl" Lad a direct hearing on the Fuller assets, ’ The witness then refused to an- swer question as to whether the White Sox series had been “fixed,” saying “T wouldn't discuss such a thin, At this point Chadbourne explained that he “understood Roth- stein won $22,500 from IPuller on fhat series, and wanted to find out how mueh he knew about the brib- ory.” Rothstein conferred with any time in y Rothstein re- " asked sald it Mr, pay my hets,"” again called down conversations with White Sox- Attorney Then he had ever Attel or Sullivan at 1919 regarding the world's series. He refused to say whether he ever met Attel in New York in 1919, on the ground that it had nothing to do with the case, “Did ya ever have any contro- versy or discussion as to how the division of money won on' that snr-| ies was to ho made?” he was ask “It's nene of your business and I'm not going to answer.” Denies Sullivan Blamed Him “Didn’t Sullivan charge hat you placed the blame on him, and didn't ¥ou know the White Sox players were hribed an offer of, $100,000 to throw the series?” denied Sox first heen know the White they threw the they had “Don't players after mamey charged double-crossed 2" “T don’t want to discuss that.” When questioned regarding the $28.000 he is alleged to have given Fallon to defend him, Hothstein said you: with | be had & ot of other business (o at- ad e Alter relfusing 10 answer more questions he said “You'll be asking me If 1 staried the Japanese earthquake in & minute” BRIDGEPORT LEADS IN OWNED MOTORS In This City There Are {4 People lor Each Car Hartford, Oel. 8.~=Judging by n.f ownership of autemebiles, Bridgeport is the richest of the seven larger cities in Connectiout, with Hartford second and New London third, In working out the average number per autome- bile in the state, figures from the 1923 records of the molor vehicle depart. ment were taken and population ac- cording to the 1920 census, figures are therefore not exactly ae- curate, but are as nearly as possible 50, Bridgeport has 25,881 passenger au- tomobiles divided among 143,066 peol ple, or an average of approximately five people for cach dar, This means that Bridgeport can practically take the road with every resident provided for, Hartford, with second place sereral wealth is figured in motorcars, owns|and Miss Ruth Porter Loomis of 17 13,020 passenger cars and has 135,080 people, an average of approximately 10 people per cur, If Hartford is ever invaded it appears that some of the poople will have to patronize the | Connecticut Co, or the “New Haven" | in order to cscape, New London is In third place and averages exactly 10 and one-half peo- ple for each wutomoblle, There are 26,688 people and 2,431 cars, New Haven and Meriden are neck and neck in this display of wealth, with Meriden very slightly ahead.

In the communications to the forelgn office made by Mr., Harvey, there- fore, It Is understood that the Ameri- can proposition was explained at greater length, The chier British objection, so far as known, has been based on the fear that the plan might invade in geme degree the rule of international law that recognized the three mile limit of territorial jurisdic- tion. The Washington government takes an exactly contrary view of the probable effect of a specific agree- ment to extend that limit up to 12 miles for the statéed purpose of preventing smuggling of contraband articles to elther country, In the American view such a special agreement would only serve to make the general three mile rule stronger since it would be noted in the speclal treaty that it was an exception from a recognized principle - of interna- tional law. 335 ARRESTS MADE ber.
