 ing. he stayed perhaps half an hour and went home. When asked where his companion was in the Interim and why they did not come home to- gether, he appeared confused but said he had gone to a cafe about a half mile north of the village center and fearing that his delay might be pro- 1ongcd, went home without him.
 In his attempt for an alibi for both he had already said that when he got home at 8:30, he ascertained Bal finger had reached his domieile ahead of him.. This he recalls from the fact that when he entered the Web Der home, Mrs. Webber asked if George had watered the stock. He went immediately to the barn and found the empty pails which satis- fled him that BalhngeE had return ed and was sleeping in his room in the barn loft. He did not assure ton, however. When the officers arrived at II o'clock both were found in bed.
 Mrs Webber was then reached on the phone and she unhesitatingly stated that Thome told the truth as conversation she had with him about the cattle. She could not say as to the return of Ba1lnger, a ssae went to bed immediately. This establish ed an alibi for Thome if the assault did not occur before g o'clock. The Webber homestead is two miles from the plumbing shop where the deed was done. BaEinger refusing to ah- swer further questions, he was asked if he could get bail in town. To this he gave a negative answer.
 The court instructed the officers to ascertain if their employer would give bonds for their appearance in court when Hall would be able to appear against them, but theNem- ployer declined. It was suggested that both prisoners be remanded un- til today and brought to the hospital so that Hall could identify either of them as his assailant.
 Thome's story and its strong GOT roboration both by MT. and Mrs >Webber apparently impressed the jus tice so favorabIy that he decided to release Thome, but Ballinger was held for further examination. As both prisoners complained of the in- hospitab1eA cell where they were con- fined without fire last night, the court ordered the sheriff to lodge Ba1Hnger in the county jail to await the time when Hall will be able to appear against him. A report from the hos pital Wednesday says this will be at least two weeks later.
 Everybody believes the victim of this atrocious deed knows who his assailant is.. Halls friends say he is not the one who is handicapping justice The people insist on no more bungIng, and demand that Hall be vindicated. On the way to the hos pital. Hall grew weak from loss of said to the physician and attendants eFWe1I, boys, if I go, you can find the men who did me at Wepber's on Mile TIill.''

MILLIONAIRE JAlLER
 CALLS BEN LEGERE ~tUNMITIGATED LIAR
Former Bridgeporter Has Lively Row With Wealthy
 Warden of Sing Sing.

 7 The former Socialist, who is now termed an anarchist, is having live " Controversy with Warden Osborne as a, result of his attack on the prison reforms instituted by Osborne.
 Legere wrote an article for a mag azine several weeks ago in which he scored Osborne.-and his methods lie cited one case of where an i'll prisoner, he said, had been '.bludgeoned by two burIy guards and nothing was done about reprisal. He quoted an alleged interview he had with Osborne on the matter Osborne replied that Legere is s'an unmitigated liar"
 The controversy waxes hot The methods of Warden Osborne are dis tinct handicap to progressive prison reform ; declares MT. Legere- "A man who conducts his life by personalities is not the man for the big task or cleaning from: out society, the blot of barbarous prisons. He is a great re- former only in the lively imagination of his press agents.
 Legere had an opportunity to study Osborne at close range. He melted a riot at Little Falls and was sentenced to 15smonths in Auburn prison. While he was studying us.'' he. says of his life, i've were also studying him He charges that Osborne maintained a Tammany machine in the form of the Mutual Welfare league among prison CTS. Osborne replies by saying that Legere founded the league and. when it's purposes did not turn out the way he wanted it, he went back on it
 A writer had termed Legere an an archist. He resents the term. ''I am a socialist, not an anarchist he de- cares

POLICE INVESTIGATE SUSPICIOUS PHASES OF GIRL BURGL ARIES
Some of the Thefts Could Not Have Been Made by ChiI-
 dren, They Believe.

Grave suspicion exists in the minds of the Bridgeport police as a result of some disclosures that have followed the arrest of Bertha Flynn and EIiz- abeth Kaufman, two children, charg- ed with incorrigibi1ity when they ad- nnitted thefts. It is expected an in vestigation will lead to further arrests and the finding that the girls were merely accessories in many of the thefts.
 F. H. Dillon, Main street mt1liner, identified to-day a hat that had been stolen from his store. It was among, the loot found at the Flynn house and which the girl said she stole. MT. Dillon declared it was impossible for two girls of such age to come into his store and steal hat of that size without being detected He suspects that somebody older and more elev CT did the work, he declared to the police.
 Much of the stolen fnery, which is believed to have been taken from many Main street stores, remains at police headquarters unclaimed. It is believed that merchants on Main street could identify some of it as their property.
 At the Kaufman home only one pair of slippers and 8 veil were found.

MOONEY DECLARES MOTORMAN BL OCKED
 WAY TO HOSPITAL
Complains To Delaney That Tfolleyman Delayed Treat
 ment of Injured Man.

Because the city ordinance contains no provision that forbids 8 person blocking the path of fire apparatus on the way from a fire, a. complaint. of Fire Chief Edward Mooney to Prose fcutor A. L. Delaney against motor man of the Connecticut Co.,, did not result in an arrest.
 According to Chief Mooney, a mo- torman at the controller of a car trav- cling west on Fairfield avenue yester- day afternoon, raced with the chiefs 8 automobile and then blocked the en- trance to the emergency hospital yard when the chief wished to deliver a man who had been injured at a, fire.
 Fire broke out at the plant of the Bridgeport Mattress Co., yesterday af- ternoOn and when the hremen were tossing bales of cocoa fibre from one of the upper stories, a bale struck Henry krupti of 1894 Main street and broke one of his legs. Chief Mooney placed Krupti in his automobile and rushed him to the emergency hospital.
 It was alleged by Chief Mooney that a mo otorman. whose name has not been tascertained, raced the automobile on Fairfield avenue and then stopped his trolley in front of the driveway to the emergency hospital Chief Mooney driveway for that reason and many minutes delay was caused, which re- suited in intense suffering for the in tured man.
 Complaint was made this morning to Prosecutor Delaney but he found that while the ordinances contain a. pro- vision against blocking fire apparatus ticles in the ordinances relates to blocking apparatus on the way from a ire No warrant was issued, as the chief requested
