Girl, 17, Arrested Sergeant Stadler and Officers John O'Keefe and Edward Muszyn- <ki also arrested Ruth Baneroft, 17, who was in the tenement, and | charged her with improper conduct. She frankly admitted that for the | past few months she has been in | the company of men, some of whose names she knew, and for two weeks |she has been living with Mrs. | Guzzi, having been brought to the tenement she safd by Mrs. Guzzi's brother, Joseph Curcio, 18, of 29 | Locust street. Curclo was at'home when the rolice raided the house, but after talking with Miss Bancroft they ar- rested him on the charge of im- | proper conduct. In the Guzzi tene- » taking the | jient when the police entered was | | Ernest Maxwell, 32, of 15 Meadow | street, and the charge of frequent- |ing a disorderly house was placed | against him. Neighbors Complain | sergeant Stadler testified in po- lice: court today that policemen have | observed the Guzzi tenement for the past few months, seeing numer- ous automobiles in the driveway at night, and neighbors have com- | plained to the officers on the beat and at headquarters that conditions in the house were bad. About 12:15 o'clock this morning, the sergeant testified, he went to 148 Brook street and with | O'Keefe and Muszynski, looked into the Guzzi tenement until Miss Ban- croft, scantily clad, went from the |living room into a hedroom. De- manding admittance, they questioned Maxwell, Miss Bancroft and Mrs. | Guzzi and then arrested them. Mgs. | Metty was called to take care of the children and Curelo was brought from his home to the police station. Curcio, according to the sergeant, brought Miss Bancroft to Mrs. Guzzi's tenement two weeks ago and since then has called on her three |or more times. Miss Bancroft, ac- cording to the sergeant, told him that Maxwel] spent the night with Mrs. Guzzi the night Curcio brought | her to the house. Conditions in the | tenement were described by the ser- | | geant, who said the only food there was some sugar which Maxwell had | brought a short time before the raid. Questioned by Prosecuting Attorney | Woods, Sergeant Stadler said the | police expected to find liquor but there was none. Deserted By Husband Cross-examined by Attorney Harry M. Ginsburg. who represented Cur- cio, Mrs. Guzzi and Miss Bancroft Sergeant Stadler sald he learned that Mrs. Guzal's husband deserted her three months ago, leaving her with no means of supporting herself and the children. The city has been giv- ing her $4 a weelk, and she has not been employed. As to Miss Bancroft, Sergeant Officers | Stadler said che told him her father lives in Wethersfield and her mother IiVes' in Long Island, the. parents having separated some time ago. For a time she lived with her grand- mother in East Hartford but of late she. has had no home although she could go to her mother if she had carfare. The state was about to rest its case at this point but Mrs. Guzzi sum- moned Attorney Ginsburg and asked to be allowed to testify. She denied emphatically that Maxwell was her sweetheart, and about Miss Ban- croft's admissions of improper rela- tions with Curcio, Mrs. Guzzi sald she knew nothing whatever. She felt sorry for Miss Baocroft and took her in when she had no place to go. Maxwell called last night to see Curcio, as they intended to seek employment today, and as there was no sugir in the house she asked him to go up street and get some, which he did. They were in the liv- ing room, fully clothed, whén the police came. On another oclasion, she said, Maxwell had accompanied her on a search fi another tene- ment, as she had been ordered to vacate. She does not know the whereabouts of her husband, she said, and she knew of no way to live under better conditions than the po- lice found, unless she had money. 8he admitted that numerous auto- mobiles have been seen about the premises but they were driven.by men calling for Miss Bancroft. Max- well drives a car, she admitted, and has been calling at the house fre- quently, but, “only as a friend.” rl Has Been Homeless Miss Bancroft, an attractive young woman, festified that she will be 18 years of agé on Oct. 8 and for some time she had been home- less. Curcio, with whom she was acquainted, met her on the stre#t about two weeks ago and brought her to Mrs. Guzzi's tenement. SI admitted improper relations with him but denjed that she had told Sergeant Stadler of having seen Maxwell and Mrs. Guzzi together for an entire night. “Someone tried to grind that out of me, but 1 did not say it,” she said in a soft voice and with a mannerly de- meanor which surprised court of- ficials. “Maxwell and Catherine were in the living room that night when I went to bed, but where they went or what. they did, I do not know." 2 Maxwell, who had no counsel, testified that he frequently called at the Guzzi tenement but always when Curcio was there. He denied im- proper relations with Mrs. Guzzi but admitted that he “suspected’™ Miss Bancroft and Cufeio although the | latter had never told him anything | of their relations. He was never in the tenement after 1 o'clock in the morning, he said. Officer O'Keefe testified that Maxwell told him Mrs. Guzzi would thave been “all set” had she not Ital\en in Miss Bancroft, but Max- well, under cross-examination by Attorney Ginsburg, explained that he meant by that remark that she would not have become involved in difficulty with the law but for Miss Bancroft's activities. Children to Be Cared For Judge Saxe imposed a fine of $15 land costs on Curcio and .commited Miss Bancroft to the state farm for women, remarking that she was certainly in need of supervision and correction. Maxwell was discharged for lack of evidence and a con- i tinuance: until Friday was taken in | Mrs. Guzzi's case and in the mean- i time the probation department will investigate the situation so as to be | |in position tomake recommenda- | tions to the court with regard to the children Mrs. Guzzl asked for permission to speak again and Judge Saxe granted it. She told him she was confident of her ability to give her children a proper bringing up if she ‘had the means or the oppor- | tunity to work, to which Judge Saxe replied that he did not doubt it, but the fact remained that she was without means and it was the duty of the authorities to safeguard the | welfare of the children.

There were reports that Irigoyen had been removed from the military barracks at La Plata and placed aboard the warship Belgrano in the harbor to be taken to an unn#- nounced destination, but it became known this nforning that he still is a prisoner in the barracks, with his physician, Dr. Meabe, and was not taken aboard the Belgrano because of his delicate health. . Many persons connected with the deposed administration have been arrested. Among the latest of them are ‘the former interventor of Men- doza province, Borzani, and the per- sonnel of his administration. Other high figures of the deposed Irigoyen regime have escaped successfully into Uruguay and else- where. Justo Made General General Augustin P. Justo, who was minister, of war under President Alvear, and who Monday night was named chief of military forces in the federal capital, has been made commander-in-chief of all military forces of the republic. At his request a federal interventor has been named for Buenos Aires province, the post going to Dr. Carlos Meyer Pellegrini. Monday night's events still remain | unsatistactorily explained. The gov- ernment’s theory is that the initial firing arose out of confusion af troops from the government house, and from the post office, each of which thought the other moving against the government. The situation appears to have been of considerable seriousness. There are seven known dead and 56 wounded as a consequence of the fighting, and there are at least 50 small pits in the neighborhood of the post office which indicate that that building was at one time the object of a pretty intense cannonad- ing. General Justo last night flatly de- nied reports, widely accepted here, lthat two civillans, found guilty of {looting during the fighting, had been executed publicly in the Plaza De Mayo. Representatives of 14 national and foreign banks operating in the na- tion yesterday offered the new gov- ernment a loan of 50,000,000 Argen- tine pesos (about $40,000,000) for a term of 180 days at five per cent in- terest. No guarantees of any kind were asked. Urlburu Explains Plans (Copyright, 1930, all rights reserved by the Associated Press.) Buenos Aires, Sept. 10 (#)—Presi- dent General Jose Evaristo Uriburu told the Associated Press today that close cooperation with the United States and actlve participation in activities _ of the Pan-American Union were to be keynotes of his ad- ministration in the Argentine. Stressing especially his desire for friendly intercoursé with the United States, General Uriburu decfared: desire my government to establish friendly and mutually advantageous relations with the United States and shall name an ambassador to Wash- ington the instant that the United | States recggnizes the new Argentine government.” . Touching updn 'the long vacancy in the ‘Argentine embassy at Wash- ington, General Uriburu said: “Both nations have everything to gain through diplomatic, economic, and commercial cooperation and much to lose through political aloofness in matters in which the best interests of both are involved.” He declared that other American republics could depend on Argen- tina's wholehearted participation m the program of the Pan-American Union, but that his government could not say immediately whether it would be found desirable to re- sume participation in the League of Nations. To Study League Plan The new government, he said, has | set itself to the task of exhaustive study of the entire question of leagu membership, but in the past the Ar | gentine’s inability to see eye to eye with terms of the treaty of Versailles has been the basis of non-participa- tion in the affairs of the league. The president denied emphatical- ly that the deposed president, Hipo- lito Irigoyen, had been put in jail or had been taken aboard a war- ship. “After I arrived at govern- ment house’ Saturday,” he said, “I | discovered that the president had {fled from the capital. Later he was | paiced in the barracks of the seventh |infantry at La Plata where he was 1eld until his resignation was forth- coming. “At that time his imprisonment ceased. On advice of his physicians | he remained at the barracks, since it was reported his health would be | endangered if he was removed. My | personal hope is that Senor.

His re- moval te a private sanitarium seems the best move just now, and I ex- pect his advisers soon to order abandonment of his quarters in the barracks. He presently occupies the rooms of the officer command- ing the garrison.” General Uriburu disclaimed any aspiration to a political career. “I am a military man and a pa- triot,” he said. ‘I have never been a politieian and T do not intend to start now. After three days in this oftice T am wondering what there is to public office that makes politi- clans strive to gain it.” He declared that his govermment has a single aim, to reform the country's political structure taking power from the hands of the ele- ments which have dominated the nation. The ablest leaders from the best Yelements of the nation will be sought for the provisional govern- . ment. “We are birds of passage,” he said of his regime, adding that he hoped it would represent an able coordination of the military and the best civil elements in the country to destroy a political system which has enahled political despots to perpetuate themselves and their parties in power. No Dominating Party He declared that under the sys- tem which the government intended to bring into existence no party will be,so firmly entrenched in office as to be able to dominate all other groups. “When we have brought into being such a state,” he said, “the military will retire.” | He expressed sorrow that the revolution had been attended with sanguinary fighting. “I had hoped,” he said, “that we could occupy gov- ernment house Saturday without firing a shot. All our efforts were toward peaceful conquest with the army and civilians joirilng in an overwhelming show of strength.” CITY DENOCRATIC DELEGATION WET (Continued From First Page) genera] state cooperation, and “Whereas, All former state liquor laws having been replaced by the en- forcement act, its repeal would leave the federal courts with their few officials as the only means of prose- cuting bootleggers and speakeasies and would leave Connecticut, with its state and city police, its constables and justices of the peace powerless to deal with the liquor traffic within its own borders, “Therefore Be it Resolved: That the Connecticut Committee of Orga- nizations Supporting the 18th Amendment, comprising of the Sons of Temperance, Temple of Honor, Independent Order Good Templars, Connecticut Temperance Union, Con- necticut Temperance and Anti- Saloon league, Connecticut Prohibi- tion committee, Connecticut Federa- tion of Churches, State Grange, Woman's Committee for Law En- forcement, Woman's Christian Tem- perance Union and Connecticut Christian Endeavor Union, respect- fully urge that the democratic state convention take no action toward the repeal or weakening of the Connecti- cut enforcement act, but that it go on record for the enforcement of the 18th amendment as long as it re- mains a part of the constitution of the United States.” Convention Delegates Delegates to the convention are: State: Mrs. Nellie McCrann and | Mrs. Anna D.
