Proaee ution UP 70 Wilson.


The report Of the commission puts
sauarely up to the Wilson administra-
tion the question of initiating the GRIM
nal prosecutor Of the Offenders for vio
lation Of the Sherman anti trust law.
1t also puts squarely up to the states
Of New York. Massachusetts. and Con-
necticut the question whether they pos
sess the laws under which the persons
responsible for the scandal can be pun
ished and the loot recovered. and if so,
whether they intend to enforce the
statutes.
President Wilson and Attorney Cen
eral MacReynolds are looked to for an
answer to the question concerning the
intention Of the federal government. At
the White House no word was forth
coming and the attorney general said
he had no comment to make public. 1t
is reported that the question will be
considered at the cabinet meeting to-
day.

Administration supporters declared
that many Of the recommendations of
the commission agreed perfectly with
portions Of President Wilson's trust
regulation program.
The next step IN New Haven affairs,
however, was expected from the de-
partment of justice. Apart from al
legged violations Of laws over which At
torney General McReynolds and the
federal statutes have no control, the
department was concerned chiefly In
the commissions findings that the acts
characterized as Corrupt ana uninw-
full" were for the purpose OF setting up
a monopoly in violation Of the federal
statutes. The department has taken
that view In Its dissolution suit
against the New Haven system, which
will probably be filed within the next
few days unless the road officials re-
verse their attitude and accept terms
of peaceful dissolution.
The possibility of any criminal acts
being In violation OF federal laws was

B0CHER GETS 80 DAYS
FOR THEFT OF MONEY
Man Who Confessed TO Robbery While
i'm Jail is Given Stiff Sentence
Upon Guilty Plea.

After having pleaded guilty TO a
charge of petit larceny fled by Mrs
Elizabeth Desovits of the Division
road, Louis Bocher was sentenced to
30 days in the county Jail in city court
Saturday morning. He was released
Friday evening from serving a sent
ence of IL days for carrying concealed
weapons.
He is alleged by Sergt Barnhart Of
the police department to have con-
fessed TO the theft of $40 from the
Desovits home while he was laying out
his sentence. However, in the affi-
davit read in court he was charged
only with the theft of SO in cash. At
the time the money was TAKEN some
valuable jewelry was missed. Bocher
denied that he had taken the jewelry.
Joseph GetzO, arrested for intoxica-
ton, and serving time with Bocher
also confessed to his implication in the
robbery. For some reason unknown
to the police department. no further
charge was lodged against him.

MAY RAISE RESTRICTIONS
ON FILM MACHINES

AT the urgent request of local mo-
ton picture exhibitors and at the sug-
gestiOn Of City Electrician Dickey,
the city council will consider the re-
vOSing of the present city ordinance
which sets forth that all motion pic
ture machines must be hand driven
and fOrbids the use OF a mechanically
driven machine.
The point was first raised by Harry
Lerner of the Surprise Theater CO.,
who has just installed a new model
machine in the LaSalle theater. The
machine is equipped with the latest
safety devices and should the operator
leave it and the film break there
would be slight danger of fire.
The city council, according to
Dickey, will favor the revocation if
all machines that are to be motor
driven shall be equipped with what
is known as the dead mans stop,
which is dependent upon the pressure
of the operators hand for the power
used to drive the film through the
machine. The only objection the
board of safety and the electrical de-
partment had, according to Dickey,
was the fact that with motor drive,
the operator would find plenty of
time TO leave the machine and the
booth
