HONEYMOON PLANS ENDED BY BATTLE Guns, Threats and Disturbance| Result in Three Arrests An intendeds honeymoon was turned into a battle royal Saturday afternoon and a probable murde was frustrated only by arrival of several police who had réeeived word that a mur der was being committed at 57 No- ble street. When the excitement had died | down, the poli had arrested | Adolph Ouswald, of the Paras dise apartments, 364 Elm street Wilfred Hettlinger, 22, of Mamaro- | neck, N. Y., each charged with car- | rying conceftled weapons, and Mrs. | Florence No: 36, also of Mama-| roneck, whom Hettlinger | brought to this city for the purpose of marrying. When Sergeants George C. ger, P. J. O'Mara and P. A. Me-| Avay went to 57 Noble street, they found Ouswald there, and he made a movement as though to draw a gun when he saw the officers. They jumped upon him and searched him and found a fully loaded revolver. | Ellin- | {only in his own arr | street also is treasurer of Lake county, Tax money in excess of eight million dol- lars is handled annually by that of- fice. An audit of his accounts there will be made. On the morning of his disappear- ance Groves was to have attended a meeting of the boarl of directors which had been considering a mer- ger with the East Chicago State bank. RIDES HOME IN CAR BORROWED AT GURB Selection of Free Taxi Costs Holmes Ave. Man $25 When John Balocchi, 37, ot 27 | Holmes avenue, tooM a seat in an automobile owned Petrauskas the by Anthony S. nd parked in front of ational Bank on Main night, he started a series urrences which culminated not t but the arrest . of 5 Hawley iguerria, 32, on the charge without of John Robertson, and Fernando of 11 Broad street, of taking an automobile permission of the owner. Balocchi was intoxicated, accord- ing to the police, and wanted to zo home shortly before 9 o'clock. Rob- ertson saw him enter the car and After taking Ouswald to the po- lice station, Sergeants O'Mara, Mc- | Avay and Feeney returned tv the house and found Hettlinger He had no gup upon his person, but in a pocket of his car was found an | empty revolver. Mrs. Noyes, who was intoxicated. was 'in the house, | and she was locked up for drup enness, After the officers had questioned the three persons under arrest, it was discovered that Hettlinger had brought Mrs. Noyes, who is a mar- | ried’ woman, but not living with her ~husband, to this city fo marry her. | The couple went to the Noble street | house and all engaged in a drink- | ing bout, and subsequently Ous- | wald, a relative of the woman by | marriage, objected to the marriage | plans. He told Hettlinger that he could not marry the woman, and then the battle started. A boy who caused the arrests tes- tified in police court today that he heard Hettlinger threaten to shoot someone, 5o he hurried out and re- ported the matter to Sergeant O'Mara. Mrs. Noges pleaded guilty and was fined $5 and costs, while Quswald, through Attorney Cyril F. Gaffney, pleaded guilty and was | fined $25 and costs. Attorney Gaff- ney sald Ouswald was technically guilty but he was not the type of man who would carry a pistol ex- cept to protect himself. He had taken the revolver as security for 4 loan and never intended to use it Hettlinger pleaded not guilty but was fined $25 and costs. He said he | 1 not known there was a revolver | in the car until the police found it, and the only way he could account for it was recalling that he had| often given a watchman a ride to| work in New York and possib# the watchman left the weapon in the car. | Wild Evening in Grocery Store John Step, 24, of 200 High street, | was fined $15 and costs on charges | of drunkenness, breach of the peace | and assault, to which he pleaded nolo contendere through Attorney Willlam E. Hagearty. He was ar rested by Officers William O'Da and William Roy Saturday night after he had created a disturbance in Martin Rendisz’s store at 296 High street, and the police learned that he had gone into the place in | an intoxicated condition and when ordered out he seized a can of beans and hurled it at Rendisz. Then he fell down and struck his head against a showcase, breaking it and sustaining a bad cut on the nose, necessitating hospital treat- ment. Attorney Hagearty said Step was 50 intoxicated he did not know what ¢}iguerria_and Robertson he owncd | there. | advised him not to drive it on ac- | count of his condition, to which Ba- {locchi replied that he would like to meet someone to handle the | wheel for him. Figuerria and a friend were passing and Balocchi hailed them, telling them of his pre- dicament, so Figuerria, out of the goodness of his heart, agreed to drive, thinking Balocchi owned %he car. Robertson, who' lives a short dis- tance from Balocchi's home, volun- teered to go along to direct Figuer- and incidentally save himself some steps. When they reached Holmes avenue, keys out of the car and gave them to Balocchi, who entered his home ccompanied by Robertson. Baloc- chi's brother-in-law saw the.car and wondered where it had come from. Balocchi was in no condition to tell the car. Officer John W. Riley notified po- lice headquarters of the case 9:20 o'clock and Detective Sergeant P. J. O'Mara was detailed to inves- tigate. He interviewed Balocchi without success, but learned that a man answering the description of Robertson had been in the car, 50 he went, to the latter's home and found Robertson, who readily ad- mitted having had a ride. He did not know Figuerria but Sergeant O'Mara inquired”in the vicinity of the City National bank and soon was on his way to Broad street, finding Figuerria at home. Petra , meanwhile, was at- tending the performance at a the- ater, gnd when he came out about 11 o'clock he could not find his car. 50 he went to the police station, ar- riving in time to learn that the po lice had the car and had just asce tained that it was registered in h. name. In police court today, Petrauskas testified that he had given nobo permission to take his car and he or Balocchi. Each of the trio took the stand and Judge Traceski was satisfied that Robertson and Figuer- jria were innocent of any offense, al- though, he pointed out, Figuerria was foolish to take the word of a man % intoxicated as Balocchi. He felt, too, tHat Balocchi probably would not have called someone ‘o drive for him in-a car not his own had he been soberw He discharged Robertson and Figuerria, fining Ba- locchi $25 and costs. Balocchi told the court he did not | remember much of what happened | but he was positive he had not told the car. They were equally positiv he was doing. He has arranged to pay for the damage to the show-| case. | Fight Over Cigaret | About 2 o'clock yesterday morn- ing, Edward Larachetti, 22, of 103 Sexton street, and his brother, Archie Larachetti 25, of the ame address, were on their way home and John Kolos! 1, of 54 Union street, who was sitting on a ver- anda at 18 Clark street, asked one | of them for a cigaret. He was re- fused and advised to buy his cigarets, with the result that a fight ensued. | The brothers were discharged .and | Kolosky was fined $10 - and costs. | The same fine was imposed on Frank | Brighenti, 21, of 450 Main street, who was with Kolosky and took | part in the fight. Judgment was sus- | pended on Steve Krawitz, 22, of 15 Lawlor street, who convinced the | court that he tried to stop the fight, | although the brothers accused hi of punching Judge Traceski remarked that Kolosky, who has a | police record of some length, ap- parently started the fight and Kra- witz “came nearer to telling exactly what happened than any of the others.” Sergeant Stadler and Offi- cer Stephen Coffey made the rests. Fined for Hitting Neighbor John Gima, 27, of $2 West street, | was fined $5 and costs for assault- ing Mrs. John Sapko, a neighbor during an altercation arising out of a scuffle between Gi ister and Mrs. Sapko's daughter. Officer James Kelly i the case Saturday and left word for Gima to report at police headquarters, which he did, and Sergeant Flynn formal arrested him. The assault was slight Stanley Tryasko, 42, of 60 Bel 'street, was fined $5 and cost placed on probation for drunk ness and breach of the complaint of his wife. ward Muszynski made the arrest at 12:45 o'clock this morning em stigated Examiners Find Bank’s Accounts Show Shortage Chicago, Sept.

Local Girl Scouts Pitch Camp at Exposition Britain Girl Scouts demonstrated*setting up a tempo- rary camp on an auto camping trip as a part of the Girl Scout exhibi- tion at the Eastern States Exposi- st Thursday, Friday and Sat- The girls who participated were scouts who went op the auto camping trips this summer from Camp Sprague. They are Carolyn Lord, Mary Horton, Gladys Leavitt, Constance Grant, Marguerite Hul- bert, Gertrude Stone, Nancy Hooker and Mary Savage. At the exposition the scouts |showed how they packed thq car, | how they stored the food between |the back seat and the tailboard; | packed three tents into one roll and tied it to the sidc of the ca | pitched tents conveniently for- coo ing and sleeping. These trips were a practical mea: of carning the Girl Scout pioneé merit badge. The scouts cooked over an open fire for the three days, pitched the tents, made a sanitary temporary camp, slept comfortably on the ground, made and packed water-proof bedrolls that were light, 2nd edsily transported. Usually eight scouts went on these trips, including the leader, Miss Haigis, and all equipment was carried in the truck belonging ta the New Britain Scouts. They were three day trips, taken every two wey The first day was spent in traveling to the spot, and seiting up mp, the second day was spent ting some interesting locality and on the third day scouts returned to camp. Two trips were made to Grafton, Mass, where the scouts visited the Wayside Inn at Sudbury at one time and on the third trip climbed Mt. Wachusett. On another trip the scouts camped at Punkatee- |sett the summer home of Mr. and | Mrs. Louis P. Slade of this city, at | Tiverton Four Corners, Rhode Is- land, and visited For: Adams and Newport. The average length of the trips was 350 miles, and uone cost the | scouts more than $2 a plece. . This fee covered gasoline, oil, fresh veg- etables, toll charges and ferries, and wear on the car. MOTORIST PURSUED Policeman’s Wile Phones for ¢ Help When Fight Ensues Although two witnesses swore that | William C. Wearne, 32, of 123 Mar- | ket street, was not driving an auto- mobile which was chased by Officer inlHam J.

Ignores Policeman’s Shouts Once, the officer was abreast of the other car but he had no whistle, being off duty and in plhin clothes, and the driver, who he said was Wearne, did not look his way. The officer shouted at him but no atten- tion was paid and the chase did not end until the pursued car pulled up in front of a store on Beaver street. Not expecting it to stop, the officer drove some distance past before pull- ing in to the curb, but he saw Wearne was in the store when the officer approached him on foot Wearne is alleged to have refused to give it to him. Smelling liquor off his breath and observing that he he officer said, he placed him under arrest. A fight ensued, according to the officer's report, although Assist- ant Prosecuting Attorney W. M. Greenstein did not bring it out and no mention of it was made at any time during the trial.

Judge Mangan . argued that Wearne had not been scen, at the wheel and in view of the testimony of the two defense witnesses, ne was certainly entitled to a discharge hecause of reasonable doubt, but Attorney Greenstein pointed out that although Lieutenant Rival pro- nounced Wearne intoxicated, the defense witnesses disagreed, and he would take the lieutenant's word against theirs under all circum- stances. If they were wrong in.that respect, they were probably wrong in the rest of theif testimony, whered s Ofticer McCarthy, who has known Wearne for some time, was positive the latter was driving. Bus Driver Fined, $25 8. Fuchs, driver for the New England Transportation Co. was fin- ed 325 and costs on the charge of reckless driving and gave notice of an appeal to superior court in €100 bonds. He was driving a bus to- wards New Britain on Sept. 18 and forced a car driven by Charles M.

PHONE 1905 Cosmic Rays Used Pasadena, CAL, Sept. 22 (P—The latest mArvel of science—discovery of a practical use for cosmic rays— was revealed to, the National Acad- emy of Sciences today by Dr. Robert A./Millikan, Nobel prize winner in physics and president of the Califor- nia Institute of Technology. They are used in a new kind of barometer and promise, he said, to extend the science of weather fore- casting. The discovery was largely due to a trip far into Canada toward the north magnetic pole from which Dr. Millikan returned a few days ago. Astonished Sclentists When science discovers something new, he remarked, man is sure to find a use for it. But finding 3 use for cosmic rays astonished even members of the National Academy, for this radiation is still one of the mysteries, so new that scientists dis- agree about its origin. The rays seem to come from outer space, and are so powerful that they®penetrate abo®t 700 feet of water and many inches of Yead—X-rays are pigmies by comparison. Yet cosmic rays pass straight through man without being noticed. They are detected with electroscopes. = Dr. Millikan, one of the leaders in proving their existence equally upon mountain tops, in balloons and deep in earth, believes they come from the tremendous energies expended in &reation of matter somewhere in space. Some other scientists hold they can come only from annihilation of matter, probably at millions of de- grees in the hot centers of stars, where substance is packed tightly at densities undreamed-of on earth. Believe Them Ether Rays “From the first,” Dr. Milikan said, “we ourselves have thought the ev. idence satisfactory that these rays are ether waves of frequencies & fllousanq times and more than those |of the hardest X-rays, but others have thought that they might not be ether waves at all, but high speed electrons. “If they were the latter they would of necessity be influenced by the earth’s magnetic field, and should be stronger near thesmag- | netic pole than at low latitudes. I went, therefore, this summer to the | settlement which is much the near- est to the north magnetic pole of any seftlement on earth, namely Churchill, about 700 miles dut south of the pole on the west side of Hudson’s Bay. I took observations continuously day @nd night for a week. The aurora played brilliantly on three nights, so that if these phenomena are in an¥ way connect- ed the opportunity for *bringing to light the connection could not have beén better. “The results show that the cosmic rays have precisely the same inten- sity at Churchill in latitude 59 as at Pasadena in latitude 34. “The indications are, first, that the cosmic rays enter the earth uni- formly from all portions of the sky; segond, that they consist as they enter the earth's atmosphere of ether waves, not of electrons.

Where the barometer registers pres- sure by ‘he weight of air, the elec- troscope gives the atmospheric den- sity “directly by recording the amount of rays transmitted. Dr. Millikan said his present electro- scope 18 14 times as sensitive as one used four years ago. “The cosmic ray electroscope,” he said, “is a simpler and a more fun- damental instrument'than the bar- ometer.»I expect it to'be a big ald in bringing about advances in the as yet little developed gclence of meteorology, and ultimately’to find a place fh meteorological stations. “The air is simply an absorbing blanket interposed between us and a constant course of radiation com- ing into the earth uniformly from all directions. Every eruption or wave ripple in that blanket is ac- curately reflected by the cosmic ray electroscope of the type here used. “The changes it reveals are con- siderably larger than the changes revealed by the barometer, because it cares nothing about the_tempera- ture, but only about the mass of the interposed layer of air, while the barometer a rise in temperature often masks the thinning of the air blanket above. The two instruments between them furnish more infor- mation abogt the condition of the upper air above them than either one alone can do. “Every, new instrument that can furnish us new data about what is happening in the ypper ak must as- sist in the important problem of predicting, if not controlling, me- teorological and geo-physical events. Such an‘instrument the suitably per- fected cosmic ray, electroscope, herewith shown, bids fair to be. It is more semsitive to small changes in the thickness of the air blanket above us than is the barggeter, and its indications are simpler to in- terpret.” GET 25 SILYER DOLLARS 0N WEDDING ANNIVERSARY Newington Residents Surprised By Friends on Occasion of Silver Wedding Day Mr. and Mrs. John E.

Traceski in police court today on three of the‘alleged violators. Steve Bazyliewicz, 33, of 151 Lyons street, first pleaded guilty but after an interpreter explained the charge, he said he wanted to plead not guilty. His store at 249 Wash- irgton street has been the cause of complaints to the police, according to Sergeants Feeney and Flynn and Supbernumerary Officer Raymond Hart, the latter's home being three doors from the place. Harold Hackney, of 223 Beaver street, was in the store and had a bottlg of alleged liquor, in his pecket about 3 o'clock Saturday aft- ernoon. He admitted, according to the testimony, that four drinks had heen sold out of the bottle before the police arrived. He was carrying tha bottle in the absence of a, regular employe, Who was ill and could not work. . There were several men in the store, some of them said to be un- der the influence of liqudr, and in* addition to the bottle which Hack- ney was carrying, there were five empty pint bottles and three glasses taken. Men of drinking habits have been seen in and about the place for the past three weeks, the police alleged. = Changes Plea Bazyliewicz, who had takan the witness ‘stand to deny the allega- tions before the court discovered that he wanted to plead not guilty, chose not to comment after the po= lice testimony had been heard, while Hackney, whose reply to the read- ing of the charge of having liquor with intent to sell was “I haven't been arrested vet,” likewise did not testify in his own behalf. “What do you want done? Do you want to be locked up?” Assistant Prosecut- ing Attodney Greenstein asked him. when he said he had not been ar- rezed. Judge Traceski fined Bazys lidvicz and Hackney $100 and costs each. Julian Burhans, 33, of 442 Stanley street, pleaded guilty to the charge of violating the liquor law in a club at 213 Park street and was fined $150 and costs. The place was raid- ed about 8:30 o'clock Saturday night by Sergeants Ellinger, O'Mara Feeney and Kiely and 12 pints of alleged alcohol taken. Buhrans had nothing to say. John Gancarz, 51, of 273 Myrtle street, was represented by Attorney Albert A. Greenberg, and had his case continued to Thursday. He was arrested yesterday by Sergeants Feeney, Flynn and McAvay who seiz ed two cases of beer and a bottle partly filled with alleged liquor in a restaurant at Booth and Myrtls streets.
