SERGEANT T. H. HANToN
 HELD FOR GRAND JURY.
Alleged Frauds in Quartermasters
 Department at Fort Adams

Providence, R. l.. Oct. 27.-Ser- geant Thomas R Hanton, one of the men under arrest in connection with the government investigation of alleg- ed contract frauds in the quartermast- CTS department at Fort Adams, New port. was adjudged probably guilty of a violation of section 40 of the penal core after a hearing in the federal court today. He was held for the grand jury in $3,000 bail.
 United States Commissioner Frank HeaIy criticised the stand taken by William B. Scott, head of Newport business concern and one of the wit nesses- connected by the government, who, claimed his. constitutional. priv ilege as a reason for Eiling~to com ply with a federal subpoena order ing him to produce the books of his firm in court
 The commissioner ruled, however, that the witness was within his rights.
 Captain Ralps M. Mitchell. in charge of the quartermaster's depart ment at the fort. admitted under cross ss-examination by Max Lovin, one of the counsel for the defendant, that he had told Hanton that he thought the latter was being made "goat" and that Tit was pretty tough if such was the case"

LEGISLATION TO AID
 AMERICAN MERCHANTS
Considered by President Wilson and
 Secretary RedfieId

Washington, Oct 27.-Legislation to aid American merchants in their effort to take advantage of trade opportuni- ties growing out of the European war and to protect home industry against ruinous foreign competition upon the restoration of peace was considered today by President Wilson in confer ence with Secretary Redfeld of the de- partment of commerce and Chairman Davies of the federal trade connmis- sion. The president favorabIy received suggestions as to anything that would put limits upon foreign competition and enable exporters to cooperate in the esta blishment of foreign sales agencies.
 As a result of the conference, the secretary of commerce will recommend to congress the enactment of a law making selling by foreign firms at less than the cost of production here "un- fair competition punishable under the anti trust laws. A similar recommend ation will be made by the federal trade commission in its annual report to congress. which also is expected to propose an amendment to the Clayton anti-tfhst law to legalize combinations for the operation of cooperative sell ing agencies abroad.

HaIlisey's score of 6,seo on wednes- day night in the West Side Pinochle club tournament gives him first place in the club standing by a margin of 5 points over Lewis, who has held the top rung for the past three weeks. This is the second time that Hallisey has made first place, he having dis placed Baker in the third night only to be displaced in turn the next week by Lewis, whose name had since been at the top. Hallisey's total to date is 42,010 and Lewis total, 42.005. The first five men are close. their totals ranging from 41,240 to 42,010 and the interest steadily increases with each night of play.
 High score of the evening, 7,365. is credited to Peckham and A. Hahn comes in for second place, his score being 1850. The latter, who is a new conner in the club this season, is making an unusually good showing. having climbed from twelfth to fourth place in the six nights of play. | Wednesday nights scores follow: Peckham [, 1885, A., Hahn 1880, Baker 7.255, Hailisey 6.66o Lewis e,635.

PERMANENT LIGHT STATION
 ON 8ARTLETT's REEF.
Lighthouse District Inspector Tells of
 Proposed Improvements.

Changes and improvements to the lighthouse service in Long Island sound in the vicinity of New London harbor were presented by J. T. Yates, inspect headquarters at Thompkinsville, New York harbor, at a meeting of the di- rectors of the New London Chamber of Commerce Tuesday night.
 The great advantage to shipping of Bartlettis reef lightship at present Is recognized, but 1t is inadequate and the expense of maintaining it in pro= portion to it's efficiency is large. It was pointed out that it was out of the question to secure new and modern lightship and fog signal at this time, and other less expensive Improvements and changes would have to Re made.
 In view of the inability to secure a new lightship, 1t was the sense of the meeting that permanent station should be established at the southern end of Bartlett's reef. about quar- ter of mile from the present light ship. This station should contain powerful lights and whistles. In ad- dition it is proposed to place a bell buoy with fog signal in place of the Bartletts reef lightship and several floating buoys in this section. The in- stallation of a more efficient fog signal on Race Rock is also contemplated.
 Before the cost of the proposed sta tion at the southern end of Bartletts reef can be estimated. 1t will be neces- sary to ascertain the kind of founda- tion that will be needed for the station Inspector Yates also stated that the fog signal at Bartlett's reef would se SC situated that the sound y,Suld be | thrown seaward and would not disturb the residents of the city and vicinity. l The proposed changes are to be pre- scented to the local branch of the Amer ican Association of Masters.

NAueATuck VALLEY DAM.
Manufacturers Approve Recommend
 alton of Engineer c. H. Preston,
 L.

The Waterbury Republican of Wed / ueSday. said: g7s fr0 -ft
 It is now. quite probable that the project of building big dam in the upper part of the Naugatuclx valley for the purpose of conserving the wa ter will be continued by the manufac1 :urers
 A meeting was held yesterday morn ing in the directors chambers of the American Brass Co, at which there were representatives of all the fac- tories in the Naugatuck valley. The report of the commission appointed a year ago was read and. accepted. The Platt, chairman, Charles H. Preston, Jr., both of Waterbury and w. H. H. Wooster of Seymour.
 The following statement was given out:
 "It was voted that in order to deter mine the stream flow for a sufficient length of time to warrant the con- struction of such huge structure as the dam proposed would be. and also what the natuTN7 of the ledge under the dam is. that a further investigation should bemade for an additional year and half and to start the core bor- ings on the work. to determine this important factor.
 When this worI has been completed and the report received it is then that the manufacturers will petition the 1917 legislature for the construction of this big dam.
 ''If the legislature will grant per mission for this dam it will probably stand out as the largest of its kind in New England. The length over al is 1900 feet and the maximum height is 142 feet. to be constructed of cyclo- pean masonry and thickness at the base of 11s feet. The gate is a mon ster, being seven by nine feet.
 The work will cost $1.0oo, 900 and is called No. 2. one of a series recom- mended by Engineer Preston to con- serve water in the upper Naugatuclx drainage basin. The plan has been ac- cepted and approved by the state board of civil engineers"

INVESTIGATING ACCIDENT.
Coroner Brown Looking Into Causes o+
 Elevator Fatality.

Coroner Franklin H. Brown is in- vestigating the circumstances under which Jesse D, Eccleston met his death in the elevator shaft at the Car penter building on Commerce street Tuesday afternoon. From what he has learned he Is of the opinion that two bales of wool had been placed on the elevator and that the elevator was in some manner started upward. At the second floor 1t was stopped by the bales, which hung over the side. The bales were then pushed from the car in some way and landed on the sec- ond floor. The elevator might have become disarranged and Ecclestou may have been trying to free the car and
 may have fallen through the side and down to the bottom of the pit From the nature of the boys injuries it ap- pears as if he had been caught in the elevator and damned against some thing. There was no need of using the elevator, as the wool which the boy was after was on the ground floor.

At the hearings Tues day he suspended a number of licenses Few cases arising out of fatal acci- dents, but in most of them the evidence showed that the conduct of the driver of the machine did not warrant the suspension of his license.
 The secretary of state decided Tues day that the taking of a state police mans motorcycle without the owners permission was a sufficient reason for suspending indefinitely the license of Maurice Fitzgerald of New London State Policeman William F. Jackson said that while Mir. Fitzgerald did not -drink. he was at times inclined to be reckless and that he had no right to use the motorcycle, although he had been asked to repair the speedometer on the machine.
 Policeman Frank T. Howard testi- lied that he had seen Fitzgerald using Jackson's machine on two separate occasions in New London. although he had not had the permission of the of- ficer. Mir. Fitzgerald told Secretary Burnes that although he had not been hoiu that ne nulsht Iake the motorcycle out. the reason for his doing 1t was be- cause he wanted to try 1t after he had fixed it to see that it ran all right. He said he knew many of the state police men who lived in this section and that he was desirous of helping any of them whenever the opportunity arose
 Edward Stephens of Stafford Springs was concerned in a fatal automobile accident Oct. Is. Stephens told the secretary that he sounded his horn twice before he struck the girl he killed. Secretary Buhnes returned his license to him. after having heard fur ther testimony.
