SPIRIT OF HADAD BREAKS UNDER MANY
 WEIGHTY CHARGES

Completely. broken in spirit, and fear depicted upon his blanched face, James Hadad, the Syrian weaver, held for attempted arson, attempt to mur- der and burglary, presented an en- tirely different picture when he was arranged in the city court today, from that of last Thursday morning, when, sullen and rebellious, he defied the police.
 At the request of Prosecutor Red den, Judge Wilder today continued the eases of Hadad and his alleged accomplice, Ameen Sliby, New Ha- ven merchant and missionary, for one week. Meanwhile the search for Mich olas Smith, the store keeper who dis appeared two days before the sensa- tional arrest of Hadad, is being kept up.
 Smith left last Tuesday, putting Mrs. Edna Abdu in charge of the place. She kept the place open un- til yesterday, when she relinquished her duties, and the goods were placed in a storehouse under the care of the authorities. The police say they are more convinced than ever that Sliby is one of the men who planned the burning of Smiths store. No trace of Smith has yet been uncovered.

deny that they may be and often are ser
