He said local regulation was. necessary. The- ordi- the ynance was drawn by Town Solicitor Agard and was absclutely legal in de- tails. There are objections to exist- ing conditions and Mr. Smith said he would. like to have the ordinance adopted in the form as presented. On motion of Councilman Frank E. Fowler, action was deferred until the next meeting, *in, order to give . the councilmen opportunity’ to peruse the lengthy and seemingly drastic docu- ment. The motion prevailed, and in connection therewith, President Mau- rice W. Flynn, appointed as a com- mittee to investigate and report at the meeting on_this matter, Council- men Frederick E, Fowler. Charles G. Craig and Thomas E. Robinson. Attorney Clarence E. Roche bre- sented an application from Louis iBing for a victualling Jicense for a Chinese- American restaurant to be established in Main street under a lease of eight vears. He saig there were Bing res- taurants in New London ond Spring- field and that they were satisfactorily conducted. Mr, Roche was reminded that the license vear ended March 1. Mr. Poche replied that while his client would not be ready for business be- fore March 1, he woula like to have license issued, and that renewal would be asked for at the beginning of the license year. The application was granted. Edward L. Gavitt, tree warden, re- quested that when recommendations are made for appropriations in the financial town ‘meeting, that the ap- propriations of $200 for spraying trees and $200 for the care of shade trees be reversed and it was so crdered. He stated that under the new sidewalk law trees in Granite street would be removed so that a sidewalk could be constructed. and he wanted the coun- cilmen to bear in mind that a tree could not be pulled out as easily as could a tooth. Clerk Whipple announced that the term of Albert N. Crandall, as water commissioner, had expired and that #0 far as known Mr. Crandall would accept reappointment and there was no other candidate. The matter of se- lecting a water commissioner was de- ferred for one month under the new rules.

It is expected that in the reconstruction a large portion of the walls which were left standing will be used.

It appears that Westerly has been ridden of a case ‘of leprosy and with- out much trouble and very little ex- penise. Raiph B, Rysso, 2 man with- out property and withaut relatives or intimate friends, was taken ill and Dr; Johnson sent him to the Provi- dence City hospital. It developed that the man had leprosy and thereby be- came a public charge. Prior ‘to.being taken In charge by state authorities the expense at the hospital was $24.39, ang -the hospital” expected pay from the town of Westerly. The bill was ordered paid. Thomas E. Brown, chief of police, reported eleven arrests in January, four for intoxication, three assauit, and one each for theft, breaking and entering, non support, and assault with dangerous weapon, nineteen milk - cgnses were granted. Wilbert A. Clark, petitioned for ap- pointment on the police force, which hore signatures of merchants in the business centre im- endorsement. It was announcedthat there were other applicants but_that their applications were not handed in in deferemce to the fact that that the policeman who had died and created a vacancy had not been buried. Action on the ap- rlication was withhéld. Before any application is considered applicants must comply with police regulations, which _réquire 'phys‘cal examination and places jthe age®limit forty-five years . Councilman Thomas E. Robinson stated that the council appointed a compmittee of three to go to Providence and attend a conference at the Rhode Island hospital, for the consideration of the hospital rule to require -all towns sending charity patients to pay for their treatment and care. He sai the council ought not to expect thi committee to bear the ioss of time and expense, and made motion that they each be recompensed to the amount of $7.20. It was so voted. The commit- tee ‘was composed of Francis G. Has- well, Maurice W. Flynn and_Charles G. Craig. Mr. Hazwell said that as a {epresentative of the general assem- bly the state proffided for his trans- portation, and therefore he would not accept recompense from the town / Chairman Haswell reported that in the future all 'charity patients sent to the Rhode Island hospital _from Westerly would be charged to West- erly, and. the town must pay for the hospital service, The financial town meeting ought to provide a funa for this purpose, President Ethan Wilcox cf the Wes- terly Historical society, hus received a second. letter from Henry G. Gen- | sies, for many years connected with the official reporters’ office of the Unit- ed States senate, in regard to the col- lection of portraits of Unitea States senators, destined for preservation at the national capitol. 'In reply to a letter from Mr. Wilcox concerning missing pictures of Rhode Island sen- ators, Mr. Gensler writes: Thank you ver¥ much for your fa- vor concerning my quest. for the por- traits of certain Rhode Island: sena- tors. I doubt very much if I can ever succeed in finding any of these miss- ing pictures, but I want to be posi- tively assured that they are not in ex- istence before giving up my seafch, and therefore I am exceedingly grate- tul to you for bringing my request be- mte your society. “As I am filing everything that has been done to find these miksing por- traits, in order to show that I have tried a little a failed much, I wish you would send me copies of the Norwich Bulletin which/ containeq references to e Rhode Island senators, and also e Westerly Sun, so that those who will take charge of my collection af- ter it has been finished by me wiil see the efforts I have made to find those missing pictures. I hope I shall get some good results from those two pa- pers. Mr. Gensler sent a list of the fifty 0dd missing pictures, in the hope that some of them may be located.

Charged With Having Conducted Ger- man Propaganda in France. Paris, Feb. 4—The trial by court- martial of Bolo Pasha on a charge of treason in having conducted Geérman gropsganda in France was begun to- ay. After a deliberation of a few min- utes the ‘court unanimously rejected objections raised by the defense be- cause it was impossible to compel wit- nesses living in a foreign country to come to France to testify. The act of accusation dealing with Bolo Pa- sha’s life was then read. ‘The ‘courtroom was crowded when Bolo appeared, but the assembly was made up principally of witnesses ot interested parties, 2 the general pub- lic was excluded so far as was possi- ble. Bolo was accompanied by his fellow defendant, Darius’ Pochere, and |$2,000,000 for Sup_e:v!ting Erection and listened stolidly and unmoved to the reading of the long indictment which charged him with having maintained communication with the enemy and treason. A conspicuous figure in the courtroom was Madame Bolo. who was surrounded by a number of ~ friends who will testify during the proceed- ings. A& soon as the indictment had been read Bolo's counsel moved for an ad- journment, ‘taking the ground _that certain witnesses would be unable to appear for him. The state announced was too ill to come into court, but thaf whenever he was wanted. he is under arrest in Italy. The indictment charges Bolo Pasha with having maintained communica- in 1915 and in Paris the same year, when he received German money from Cavallinie to further the pacifist move- ment; in the United States in 1916, for having received through Adolph | Pavenstedt, once head of a Neéw York banking house, and the Deutsche bank German money to influence the French newspapers, and for advancing money to_the director of the Paris Journal., Broad smiles passed over the faces of those in the courtroom when Pav- Youssuf Saddik Pasha, were called as witnesses and their absence from the three doses are taken. trils and air passages in the head, stops nasty discharge or nose running relieves sick headacite, dullnes: ishness, sore throat, sneeging, and stil ing and snuffling.
