DONCVAN OPPOSES ARMORY APPROPRIATIONS Willimantic Delegation Makes Strong Argument for One in Their City. (Special to The Bulletin.) Hartford, March 22.—Senator Jere- miah Donovan threw a bombshell at the appropriations committee, Wednes- day afternoon, when he dropped in while the hearings on bills providing for the erection of state armories at ‘Willimantic, Winsted and Branford | were under way and going as smooth- | 1y as a zephyr on a summer day. Too Much Spent for Armories. H TUnabashed by all that the senator | heard as to the desirability and neces- | sity of such structures in the citi named, he opened up with a broadside | that set everyome in the room to the task of listening to what he had to| say. { There has got to be a limit to this, thundered the senator; too much mon- ey has dy been spent for- state armories; you have got to stop it. There are now more armories in the | state than are needed. - You are.spend- ing the state’s money and you haven't 8ot it to spend. More Necessary Things Than Armories There are more necessary uses for the state’s money than building of ar- mories, continued.. Senator Donovan, with great vehemence, in reply to a Question from “Representative Dunn of: ‘Willimantic, member of the commit- tee, adding that two wrongs do not make one right, which: was said with reference to the suggestion that state money goes for' other purposes less necessary than es. ‘ould Disband Military Companies.

We are overburdened with com- panies, continued Senator Donovan. | The plan seems to be to plant armor- ies all over. the state that the people of ‘the commfunities where they are placed may lay claim to having a state building. He thought 1,000 national guardsmen, out of the 1,000,000 people in the state, was sufficient for Con- necticut. ‘The presentation of the evidence in favor of having an armory at Willi- mantic was as less spectacular as it wag different from the opposition which 80 unexpectedly developed. Big Delegation from Willimantic. ‘Willimantic sent a strong delegation to state the need of the armory, these men being representatives of many im- portant interests in the city. All were | not heard because of lack of time. Capt. Frank P. Fenton, Capt. P. J. F. Sullivan, Attorney E, Frank Bugbee, | all of Willimantic, Adjt. Gen. George | M. Cole, Col. John Hickey and Col. R. J. Goodwin of Hartford all spoke for the armory, presenting evidence to show that the quarters at present o cupied by the Willimantic company is inadequate for its use and that a new building is quite necessary.

Sheehan, the present caucus candidate, has been practically climi- | nated from the situation, despite vig- | orous denials by some of his friends. Ashley - T. Cole. secretary to Mr.! Sheehan, said after a long talk with | him over the long-distance telephone | tonight: Sheehan Won’t Withdraw. “I know that Mr. Sheehan will not | withdraw under any circumstances.” The same conviction was expressed by James W.

TOOK THE PAUPER'S OATH 3 S AL But Evidently Has Enough Money te Live in Paris—Escapes Payment of Fine of $575,000—Decision Unexpected Atlanta, Ga., March 22.—Benjamin D.' Greene, who, with John F. Gay- nor, has just completed a four-year term in the federal prison here “for complicity in the Savannah harbor improvement frauds, several years ago, walked out of the federal burlding here today, a free man for the first time in a dozen years, bringing to a close, as far ag he is concerned, a legal battle that has commanded the attention of this country for the past decade. Allowed to Take Pauper’s Osath. Greene's application for leave to take the pauper’s oath to escape further liability for the $575.000 fine imposed on the two men when they were com- victed, had just been granted by U S. Commissioner Colquitt after a hear- ing which lasted two days. Greene will leave tomorrow for New York. whence he soon will sail for Europe. He said tonight that he would join Airs. Greene in Paris and they probably would make that city their home in the future. The Decision Unexpscted. The decision came somewhat unex- pectedly at the end of a long after- noon session. Attor: Telder, for Greene, had just completed his argu- | ment, when ~ Commissioner - Colquitt stated as his finding that he believed he evidence in this hearing has been such that the applicant should be lowed to take the oath.” Greene Takes the Oath. There was a death-like silence over the court room for an instant after the commissioner had spoken, while all eves were turned to the applicant, whose gray head was bowed reverently in thanks. Then the commissioner spoke again, asking Greene to come forward and take the oath. This for- mality was sobn over and the prison- er left the court room with Daniel W Rountree, one of his lawyers. Claim of Concealed Assets. The government has been resisting the application for the pauper’'s oath on the ground that the prisoner had assets concealed which would enable him to pay off a considerable part of the $575.000 fine. The prisoner admit- ted having been possessed of property worth about $700,000 several years ago. but insisted he lost all he had in fight- ing for his freedom and in specula- tion, and the federal attorneys failed to produce the evidence necessary to overthrow his claim. Gaynor’s Application . Ptnflrfiq. John F. Gayvnor, jointly convicted with Greene, has completed his sen- tence in-the federal prison and has al- so filed application to take the pau- per’s oath. His application is stiil pending. TWO “WHITE SLAVERS” IN MASSACHUSETTS. One Gets Four-Year Term, Other Held in $1,000 for Trial.
