The Best
Real Estate Agent
This Town!

Is a good daily newspaper like The
Star.
It's the market place where the
buyer meets seller. Shrewd real es-
tate men know that the easiest way
to find q customer for client is to
advertise.
They state their proposition and
await results. If customers don't
come the first time they try again.
They know that sooner or later
newspaper advertising will close the
deal and at trif1ing expense
Every one is interested in real es-
tate, so it pays all to keep posted on
what is going on by reading the real
estate columns.
There is many a lucky man or
woman who has picked up rare
bargain by watching the advertising.
Advertising pays not only the ad-

Without Financial Aid, and With Powers Refusing to Recognize Congress, Huerta Must Step
 Out.

Washington, Nov. 11.-Indications, today, were that the American policy toward Mexico, which it was hoped the nations of the world generally would follow, still was hands off.
 The general interpretation of the situation was that the United States, by giving foreign powers detailed in. formation of it's own determination to refuse to recognizethe acts of the new Mexican congress, had indicated de- sire that the powers, generally, re~ frain from financial dealings with the Huerta government
 Without financial aid and with it's machinery of government pron illegal, officials here expect to see a condition of affairs that may force Huerta to eliminate himself and show the way to a solution of the problem from the American viewpoint
 Premier Asquith's speech in London was regarded by high officials here as disclosing a passive attitude of non !. interference by Great Britain in the attempts of the United States to solve che situation. The cabinet met again, today, with all members present eK- cept Secretary Wilson. The Mexican topic was foremost.

 Judge she1don's ruling left to the business judgment of the railroad com pany the question of whether it will proceed to issue the debentures. Both Charles F. Choate ana E. D.

 FAIRFIELD RESIDENT
Dispute Between Health Board and Board of Education
 Over Clinic NearS End.

Now that it is decided that the Board of Health and not the Board of Education is to handle the dental clinic in the public schools along with appropriations that may be made for it, it is said that Mayor Clifford B. Wilson will name Dr. A. c. Tones to succeed Dr. D. M Trecartin on the Board of Health. Dr. Trecartin is the president of the board and his terrn expires January 1st. Dr. Trecartin he has built in the BrookIawn district Just over the, city line and he is now 8. resident of the Town of Fairfield, hence he will not be eligible for re- appointment
 pr. Zones is the father of the plan for dental clinic in the public schools and. Is very enthusiastic over the project. It is. the plan of the Re- pub1icans to name the doctor to the board in order that he may carry out his ideas When the Board of Appor- tionment granted $5,000 last year for this work there was a clash between members of the Board of Education and the Board of Health as to who should handle the appropriation and conduct the clinic. As it was a mat ter pertaining to schools, the school board members thought the admin istration of this work properly be- Ionged to them.
 MenDefS or the Board Of Health wanted to conduct the clinic and the money was voted to them The clash between the two boards resulted in the appropriation being held up and nothing was done in the matter. pr. Zones is a well known dentist and it is said that his appointment to the Board of Health is being considered in order that he may place his plan in operation.
 pr. Trecartin, was in consultation with Mayor Wilson today. It is said that although Dr. Frecartin has re- moved over the line and is now prac- tical1y resident of another town that member of the board
 Mayor Wilson would not say today whether or not he would appoint Dr. Fones in pr. Trecartin's place.

CONGREGATIONAL
 CHURCHES IN 47TH
 ANNUAL MEETING 
Two Hundred Delegates From All Parts of State Gather
 In Waterbury.

Waterbury, Nov. 1.-The Rev. Cha5. D. Dfnsmore, DID,, pastor of the First Congregational church, of this city, opened the 47th annual meeting of the Congregational Churches of Connecti- cut in the second Congregational church, this morning, at Il o'clock. Over 200 delegates, representing prac- tfcally every Congregational church, institution and society in the state were in attendance. The conference will continue tomorrow and will end Thursday noon.
 After pr. Dinsmore had declared the conference open, he. acting in behalf of the nominating committee, proposed the name sof Judge Frederick M. Peas- ley as moderator and it was made unanimous. The other officers se- lected were the Rev. B. O. Grisbrook, of New Hartford, scribe and the Rev. J. M. Deyo, of Plymouth, assistant scribe The Rev. John Davenport, DID,, pastor emeritus of the Second Church, invoked prayers for the sue cess of the conference Judge Peas ley, as moderator, introduce<a the Rev. Robert A. Brown, pastor of the Sec ond Church, who welcomed the dele gates to the city.
 The following were then appointed tellers to take the registration of the delegates: Rev. B. H. Byrons, James M. Bennett, Frank Hutchinson, the Rev R. A. ShackIeton, the Rev. H. D. Peterson and the Rev. Foster V. Woodward.
 One of the most important moves of the morning session was the rais- church member from four and three quarters cents, the rate charged last year, to five and one-ha.ff cents. This move was necessitated by the action of the national council in raising the tax on the state council from three to four cents per capita on all church members. The tax is laid annually to defray the expense. of holding the conference for the next year. The vote on this question was unanimous.
 The Rev Irving A. Burnap, state treasurer reviewed his account of the finances of the state conference The amount on hand at the beginning of the year was $$598.41 During the year, $2,974 was held by 3o5 churches. By subscription, s515S5, was realized. up to November 1 was $3.056.O6, leav- ing a balance on hand of $59741 on November L
 Judge Alfred Colt of New London. gave a, short report on the work of the committee on missionary work.
 The report of the social service com nittee was read by the Rev. Walter E.. LaInphir, of Hartford. Among the accomplishments of this commit tee in the way of legislation during the past year was the enactment of a law which will discourage nasty mar riages. The committee is in favor of the Liberalization of the laws in re- gard to Sunday amateur sports. The committee is working for the adop- ton of a law which will limit the number of saloons to one for every 1000 population. Another law was enacted through the efforts of the committee restricting the sale of mar cotic drugs. The committee was in- strumental in having a law passed by both houses for drunkards' home but the governor vetoed the bill.

FRAUD CHARGES
 MADE FREELY IN
 REAL ESTATE SUIT

Charges of fraud and conspiracy were freely made by Attorney Homer S. Cummings in the superior court this morning when the $50,0o0 suit Of Edward A. Weed of Greenwich against Thomas N. Cook of Greenwich was heard. before Judge Bennett. It is charged by Attorney Cumnings that his client, Cook, was the intended vic- tim in a big real estate swind1e.
 Weed & brought the suit on the ground that Cook prevented him from selling a piece of property in Green wich to William R. Clark for $84,OOO- Weed alleges that Clark had taken option and intended to purchase until Cook told him the title was defective and he ought not to buy the property. Weed says this statement was false and prevented the sale. He bought the property for $5O,0OO and would have made $84,00O on the sale.
 Cook says Weed and Clark are con- federates and that Clark had no in- tentfon- of buying the property. He was simply used as dummy in order to bring Cook into a lawsuit.
 At press hour the trial was still on.

the common law. He said that the inc. junction was asked in view of fnfor- nation obtained by the petitioners that a syndicate of bankers was already en- gagged in underwriting the stock to be issued and in fairness to all parties concerned it would be best that the matter be left in abeyance.
 MT Choate argued that the fasuanca of injunction would be extremely disastrous to the company. The bonds authorized by the public service com mission were urgently needed to pay $40,OOo 900 floating debt by December z and for improvements and equipment required by the 6r6oad. He coutended that the act creating the public service commission authorized the court only to pass upon the comm mhssfonis rl1Ifnzu so far as to amend, annu1 or modify the decree and it was not intended that the court should exercise the pow CT of injunction
 Judge Sheldon said that he had no. doubt of the power of the court to stay an order of the public service comnis- sion but 1t did not seem to him tbaE the exigencies of the situation required such action on his part and he refused tp issue the restraining order
