Budlong, eoclety matron, recently unstigcessfulfin obtaining a legal sep- aration from her wealthy husband, today was reported to be still “im- prisoned” in her former home, an apartment at 125 East 72nd street, Mrs, Budlong, who yesterday re- turned from Newport, R. 1., where she lost her eult for separate main- tenance, went to the Budlong apart- ment, it was said, presumably as a move to forestall possibility of being sued for divorck on grounde of de- sertion, A mald wha accompanied her, sent on an errand by Mrs, Bud- long, was reported to have been re- tused readmittance to tho apartment by a house employe, who declined to divulge on whose authority they act- ed. In a telephone conversation with & newspaperman last night, Mrs, Budlong sald that ghe was “virtually a prisoner" and that orders had been issued to permit no one to enter the apartment and to bar . her . return should she leave the place. The police eald they could - do nothing. They admitted today they had tylce been called up an to inter- fere but had ruled that the affair was for the clvil courts and without police province. The first request was made by Mrs, Budlong's mald. The second plea for interference was said to have been made by Budlong, who is president and director of the York Motors Cerp. The police eald they had refused his request to evict Mrs, Budlong. A telephone call to the Budlong apartment today was answered by a man who sald he was Budlong's' at- torney.

The shake-up, that was reported pending in police and fire depart- ment eircles, may not materlalize as it is reported that the investigator had failed to find any foundation to the stories he communicated to the mayor at their first meetingy CHAPMAN IN MOOD FOR MURDER HERE (Continued from First Page) Detective Hickey sald that when he Was being brought into the county bullding, he made a study of every oxit in she place, his eyes seeming to take in all almost at alglance. Falls to Recognize Shean Chapman sat in the dock three seats away from Shean, but during the entire proceedings, he did not as much as glance at Shean, On two ocoasions he walked directly in front of Shean, brushing against him once, but he refused to look at the man who told the police that his partner was Chapman, Shean however, look- ed at Chapman, and after he had passed him, Shean covered his face With his hinds, and remained that way for several minutes, When called before the court, to plead to the murder charge, Chap- man stood ereot, but as the clerk was about half through the lengthy document, the super-bandit evident- ly became bored and slouched into a more restful position. When asked it he had an attorney, he answered in a volce that was well modulated and showed no sign of tremor or nervousness. After the proceedings were over, officlals said that if the man was actually'as cool and self-possessed as he appeared, he was certainly the most remarkable character that eevr ‘appeared before the Hartford coun- ty superior court. $10,000 DAMAGE SUIT IS SETTLED OUT OF COURT Mario Oliva Brought Action Against Connecticut Co, After West Main Street Accident The suit of Mario Oliva against the Connecticut Co. has been set- tled out of court by agreement be- tween Attorney 8.

Residence, 17 Summer 8t~—1625- - jthought in banking circles that the WORRIES FRANCE National Bank Has Not Yet In- tervened in Crisis By The Amsoclated Prees. Paris, Feb, 14—~The continued exodus of capital ascribed to de- creasing confidence in France in the government's financlal . policy, s glven In French banking circles for the sharp flurry in exchange which | sent the dollar to 19 francs 35 cen- times at noon today. This expor- tation of capital s sald to be going on largely through banks estab- lished for that purpose in Monaco, and also through the purchase of foreign securities on the Bourse, It is estimated in banking and official circles that 14 billlon francs have been exported since the bol- shevik scare around Christmas, The Bank of France has not yet intervened with the proceeds of its erican credits to defend the frane because the movement origin- ated in France and is declared to be entirely devold of , speculative | features, If the bank of France sold dollars and pounds sterling it is pointed out it would only enable those sending capital out of the country to get their dollars and pounds cheaper, Therefors, gen- eral opinion is that nothing can stop the movement except the restoration of confidence, “The present situation results from accumulated circumstances of the past few months, all of which are calculated to frighten capital,” said & leading. banker today. “There was the communist scare; then the provision which required the holders of coupons of French bonds to make out a list when the coupons were pald and handed over to the authorities for purposes of taxation; then the vote for a budget of 34 billion francs—which is really more then 35,000,000,000 if the loan to pay increased pensions were taken into account; and meanwhile the country is held in uncertainty as to how the government intends to raise the money.” In government circles it is recog- nized that the situation caused by export of capital is something that is occupying the most careful atten- tion of Premier Herriot and Finance Minlster Clementel, who are de- clared to be confident that when the government’s financial policy is fully understood it will be found that the alarm such exodus of 'capital in- dlcates is unfounded, Another factor considered in po- litical circles as having largely con- tributed to bringing about present situation is the political unrest due to the growing conflict-between par- tisans of the government and the Catholics, The riot at Marscilles in which two persons were killed and some two hundred Injured, fol- lowed by threats that the thifg would be repeated when former President Millerand goes to Mar- seilles in March for a mass meeting of followers of his new republican national league, has raised fears in some circles that if the government ptie various towns at different hours,, takes no strong measures the internal strife more troubles will develop. M. Robineau, governor of the| bank of France, has been in con- | stant communication with Premier Herriot and has strongly advised abandonment of the measure re- | guiring lists of coupons when pay- ments are made. Thisssuggestion finds opposition among the pre- mier's socialist advisors but is to stop serious it government will adopt the bankers' advice at the risk of oftending his | Wall Street Briefs Newcomb Carltod, president of the ‘Western Unlon Telegraph Co., sailing on a Huropean trip today, 'sald America faced a year of greal pros- perity, basing his prediction on an increase of 20 per cent in the com- pany's cable business and 8 per cent in telegraph business. This, he sald, was the best barometer of condi- tion he knew of, “I don't ‘think there is any possibility of any slash- ing of cable rates,”” he said, “They are Jow enough now, Radio is not affecting our business adversely.” Mr. Carlton sald the company was earn- ing enough to justify an increase in the dividend rate, but he “hadn't heard anything about it.” Gross income of the Pan American Petroleum & Transport Co. in Janu- ary reached $8,838,000, the' largest for any month in its history. The monthly average nf gross earnings during 1924 was $5,848,000. The. situation in the silk industry is much better than a year ago, 3, Bayer, president of Jullan Jayser & Co,, said today on his departure for Europe. He expected his company to show $5 a share. on its stock. Since October, raw silk prices have been more stable than in the last ten years, he asserted, and he thought they would remain firm as the Jap- anese had realized the fallacy of slashing prices. Olds Motor Works, a division on General Motors, produced in 1924 the largest number of cars in any of the 28 years the company has been manufacturing. The year's output was 10,000 more cars than in 1923, a gain of nearly 30 per cent. 340 BOY SCOUTS IN 170 MILE RON Bnniversary Relay Race I Part of Day’s Program Hartford, ¥eb. 14.—In observance of the 15th anniversary of the Boy Scout movement in this country, 340 Boy Scouts from all parts of Connec- ticut are running a total distance of 170 miles today, bringing messages from the mayors and sclectmen of Governor Trumbull The governor is to receive them at | 4 o'clock at the south side of the building, After receiving the mes- sages he will take the Boy Scout oath as a “tenderfoot” to be admin- istered by Oliver Woodworth, presi-| dent of the New Britain council of | Boy Scouts, The governor will given a “tenderfoot” badge. The messages concern the scout movement and the services rendered to the country, state and community by the Boy Scouts. | Each scout is running half a mile, | 70 automobiles carrying those who| are not running. They started from | be | this morning in time to arrive here | for a parade to the capitol at 4] o'clock. The parade will be led by | the bearers of the flags of the eev-| eral scout councils and the Hartford | Bay Scout drum and bugie corps. A | feature of the run is the signalling by | Morse code of the reports of the pro- | gress of the runners from New Lon-| don and Norwich. Teams from Troop 1, East Hartford, stationed at high points along the road, are rela g the news concerning the runners to a team in the Travelers’ tower., This tame in turn is eending the repo to the gapitol grounds. All runners socialist supporters rather than chance aceentuation of the move- ment which is depressing the franc. [Motor Vehicle Dept.
