The man, however, did not obey and the officer did not shoot for the reason that he did not know that an offense had been committed and so far as he was able to judge, nothing serious had occurred. Returning to the car, he found three 5-gallon cans of alcohol in the rear, one on the seat and one on the floer. All were wrapped in burlap and judging by the weight, 11 were full, making a total of 25 allens, The officer brought the and the alcohol to the police ation, and today Detective Sergeant Cua and Sergeant O'Mara were investigating, but up to this after- noon no arrests had been made.

GAN DEFINES POLITIGAL STAN (Continued from First Page) | complain of the profound respect and high consideration in which the Catholic religion is held by the civil authorities of the United States who never have hindered nor opposed in any way whatsoever the free ex- pansion nor solemn manifestation of its ceremonies. We all recall the magnificent success of the Euchar- istic congress at Chicago last June, “There will be no meddling what- | soever in the present campaign on the part of the Vatican, ‘Wouldn't Oppose Protestant “The Holy See, while it would be pleased to see a Catholic called to| the presidency of a great nation as another proof of the esteem in which the church is held, would in no wise oppose the election of a Protestant. “If the Holy See should oppose a Protestant in favor of a Catholic, it could not but create hostility toward the Catholic church and result in obvious damage to the church’s higher spiritual interests. “It is the policy of the Holy Sece to abstain from all political strug- gles within the various states. This principle the Holy See has scrupu- lously followed, especlally in non- Catholic countrie: GORDONS SUED FOR $5,000 | Biaglo Petrunt!

It was learned after court that Officer Doty’s name was not on the warrant as a witness and therefore he was not called on to testify. Chiet Hart told the officer and the sergeants in the detective bureau to see to it in the future that their cases are presented to the court in full strength. Sergeant Ellinger testified that he and Sergeants Flynn and McAvoy went into the store about 5:15 Tues- day afternoon and found nine men there. Vidutis came in with a bot- tle of alleged liquor and on seeing the police he turned and ran. Ser- geant Ellinger saw him break the bottle against the side of a build-! ing. After a chase through rear yards and over fences the sergeant caught him in a restaurant on Elm street, near East Main street. The store has a small stock, the sergeant sald. Asked by Attorney Golon relative to the value of the merchandise Sergeant Ellinger re- plied that he had not taken an in- ventory, Cigars; cigarettes and oth- er merchandise were on display in the store. Some of the men in the store had glassed of cider in front of them, the sergeant testiffied. Asked by Attor- ney Golon whether or not he sam- pled the cider the sergeant replied He found it to be a poor grade of cider and it did not taste as though it had an alcoholic content. On being questioned as to the rea- son he ran away, Vidutis said, according to Sergeant Ellinger, that he had gone out with a bundle of old papers and was afrald some men were going to assault him. Ser- geant Ellinger was positive the li- quid in the bottle which Vidutis smashed was liquor and not cider. Sergeant McAvay testified that he picked up the pieces of broken bot- tle in the yard and op putting his finger into the neck it became moist and he tasted liquor. Sergeant Flynn testified that he was at the front door and the other officers went in the rear door. He saw the men inside.

Dismissing a claim for that amount by the Pocahontas hotel in Maine opposite Fort Foster, Ports- mouth, N, H., the court decided that while some shells may have Il the property had increased con- siderably since 1902 and develop- ment of the hotel was unimpaired. Projectiles from the guns of Fort! Foster passed over the hotel inj 1914, 1915 and 1920, the owners alleged, averring that this spoiled their business. Since there was & continued threat that firing might occur at any time, the owners con- tended, development of the prop- erty was prevented. The guns them- selves, the plaintiffs said, had a bad effect on business since they were left, although unloaded, point- ing at the hotel. New Britain Enters A. L.
