They also took possession of the distillery and a horse and wagon. The accused. who are charged with violation of the United States revenue laws are to be given a hearing before the United States Commissioner at New Haven. It was supposed the con- cern was making a sort of fruit brandy, but there is evidence. accord ing to the officials, that it has been distilling other liouor.
 The arrest is due primarily to a man owning a house snearby. Franklin street is a residential neighborhood and the establishment of the distillery, a few months ago. caused a storm Of protest about which the city officials seemed able to do nothing. Objection was made not only to the fact that the dfstillery was hemmed in by dwellings but by clouds of soft coal smoke, day and night. which were a nuisance Women falling to obtain relief from the local authorities. appealed to the government officials and an investiga- ton resulted fin the arrests There IS

Detective Chief Dunn Of New York said today:
 Pictures of three men arrested in Bridgeport were sent us, and we de- cided Mcclure was the same man wanted here for n brutal murder and intended to send a detective to Bridge port to complete the Identification. I cannot understand what induced the Bridgeport police to let the fellow out on bail when they knew we were after him. It is cinch he will skip out now"
 All information about the part Mc- Guire played in New York Is care full guarded by the local police. If 1t be true that this Mcclure is the man wanted in New York many of hiss actions since he has been under arrest are now explained. Of the three he was the most anxious. Every time his case was continued he seem ed to fret. He has a terrible temper and two or three times turned upon his pals almost like a wild beast A quar- rel in open court was nearly precipi- tated yesterday morning. It is also significant that of the three he was the first to get out on bail.

EXPERT ON FLOWER
 PRICES ENTANGLED
Wealthy Everards Appear to Defend In Suit for
 Florists Bill
Profit of 100 Per Gent,

That little florist bill of s12.4s which Robert MacMillan of Greenwich pres ented to Mrs. Everard, wife of James Everard, the wealthy New York brew CT. who has a home in Greenwich, and which the lady of the house disputed. was again before Judge Lucien F. Burpee In the Civil Superior Court to- day. This time the Everards appeared touring car, decked in the heaviest of furs. Two New York florist clerks, Christin Michel and George B. Mo Cabe, the former from Thorleys and the latter From Hessiers. the two most prominent florists in the big city, were witnesses for the defense. They thought that the retail prices as de- manded of Mrs. Everard by MacMillan were excessive. Both thought that a 50 per cent profit was reasonable as against the 100 per cent demanded by MacMnlan. A little humor was in- jected into the proceedings by the cross examination of Michel.
 The junior counsel for MacMillan. with a stenographer. had appeared at Thorleys in New York, Saturday. They had approached Michel and had him quote a number of prevailing prices. These prices were shown in court, and were much more excessive than those Michel had declared excessive. When Attorney Judson. counsel for MacMil- Ian, asked Michel to explain. He said the prices were quoted as he thought the two did not look like ready money. At another time witness McCabe was asked the prevailing prices in New York about Dec. l, 1908. He in turn wanted to know when the order was given for the flowers Then ensued a little battle between counsel for both sides as to the date of the order. DO you want to know. when this order was given" asked the court. McCabe repifed in the affirmative. The court then said Three weeks before Dec. Ist." causing a ripple of laughter to 20 over the courtroom at the expense O fboth attorneys.
 Robert F. Hawkins. who conducts a flower house in the Stratfield building was also called as a witness. In his opinion the prices as given by MacMil- Ian were reasonable and the same as quoted by the New York florists. There was no difference between the prevail ing prices in the New York and Bridge port markets Both had to get their stock from the same wholesalers.
