Government Gave Order to Stop Americans

Washington;% July 1 - The Mexican: government has com mitted an overt act of confisca- ton in preventing American oil we'll dril1ers to work on lands owned by American indi- viduals or companies by send ing soldiers into the fields and driving away ,l,the workmen, state department officials said today. >-;
 Complaint was made to the Mexican government ont &April 2 of this year it was learned,s again the refusal of the government to. grant permits to the oil companies to drill. No answer was received until after the Juarez in cident, it was said, and then Presi- dent Carranza announced no permits would be granted until the companies had compiled with the law. Com pliance with the law, State Depart ment officials said, would constitute recognition By the companies that the Mexican government owned the oil lands.
 The orders to the military forces that drilling be prevented by force of arms was issued by President Car ranza last May .16, according to ad- vices from Mexico City today. The petroleum department instructed the Mexican war department, by direct

CROSBY SPREADS NET
 FOR LIQUOR VIOLATORS
REQUESTS CHIEFS OF POLICE TO USE, THEIR REGULAR FORCES FOR INVESTIGATIONS
 REPORT TO U. $. COMMISSIONER

Hartford, July IA ret was spread by U. S. District Attorney John F. Crosby today to catch vio1ators of the war time prohibition act. He te1e- phoned chiefs of police in various cities of Connecticut requesting them to use their regular forces for inves- tigation of alleged violations and re- port to the nearest United States commissioner. The latter is author ized to issue warrants for arrest of offenders. The distict attorney also directed that agents of the Depart m ent of Justice under his jurisdiction, also internal revenue agents. should investigate and report similarly. He issued instructions that arrests should not be made for the sale of 2.75 beer.
 Reports from various cities up to midday indicated bone dry condi- ton. It was said that in some eating houses connected with saloons in New Haven and Stamford weak beers and wines were being sold Waterbury and New London were reported as closed tight
 Edward Miller, chief deputy to the collector of internal revenue, said to- day that there would be no selling of left over liquor stocks. If a deal CT wants to put his stock in the eel lar of his saloon or of his house, well and good. So long as he locks it up and does not display 1t to the public he does not lay himself open to criti- cis1n. It is probable that when the prohibition amendment goes into eff feet, Jan. 16, provision for selling will be made.
 Some Hartford saloons were selling 2.75 beer today. Local breweries announced, following news from the attorney general in the morning pa pers, that they would brew 2.75 beer to capacity.
 One well known hotel was selling only 'soft stuff today.

 GETS DIvORCE:

Because for 12 years he played the role of boarder instead of husband in his own home, Alexander B. Strong, q foreman at the American Chain Co. plant. was granted a divorce this morning from This B. Strong by Judge Curtis in the Superior court The court found that the wife was guilty of "constructive desertion.''

RETAIL PRICE OF MILK GOES
 uP:.oNE CENT
Dealers Notify Customers War Time Prohibition
 Not to Blame.

Retail price.sof milk is up a cent a quart retail today. The manager of the, Mitchell Dairy Company says: that the in creased consumption of milk caused by the !War-Time Pro- hibition Act has nothing to do with the advance at this time. If the wbdskey drinkers go back to the drink of their childhood there is no telling to what heights 1t may force the price on nliIkin the future.
 According to. the. milk man the wholesale priceNo of milk is each month determineasi by the. wholesale price of butter and cheese for the last ten days of the, preeeeding month.
 The Governor ,0f;New York has ap- pointed a milk feoplmission and the milk producing farmers of New York and New England < who control the supply of milk to the markets have a committee who meet with the Cover nors commission on the last day of the month and, with the average price of butter and cheese for the last ten days of the month as a basis they fix the price of milk for the next month. . ::-
 According to the manager of Mitch els Dairy company the wholesale price of milk was advanced three- quarters of cent a quart in May, one-half cent in June and one-quar- ter of cent in July, making a total wholesale increase during the last three months of one and one-half cents. This increase in the wholesale price compelled the retail milk deal- CTS to advance the price from 15 to 16 cents . quart

80 GUESTS IN COUNTY JAIL-;
 USUALLY 200

Playing solitaire in the cool cells of the county jail has no attractions for rne may judge by the fact that there are only sS prisoners in the North avenue resort today. County Sheriff Pease said he could not tell whether the triumph of prohibition was re- sponsible for the number of vacant apartments.
 Until a. few months ago the average daily number of inmates of the jail ranged from 200 to 230. In particu- larly coBj weather, when the floating population yearned for a warm place, the number has sometimes increased to 800. The lowest number ever re- corded was on June 4 when there were only "A prisoners to answer roll call.

NO WAY TO TRANSPORT
 INJURED TO HOSPITALS
QUAKE DAMAGED OVER 1000 HOUSES IN ADDITION TO THOSE DEMOLISHED
 IMPROMPTU NURSES SERVE

Florence, Monday, June 90 (By 4. P-)-In many places throughout the district visited by the earthquake on Sunday the number of injured has made it impossible to transport the suffering to hospitars because of the lack of proper means at the disposal of the authorities. Impromp.u nurses have taken care of the injured ones in the fields and along the dusty roads,
 Possessors of automobiles have rendered great assistance. rushing from spot to spot and bringing help, medicines and bandages for use by the doctors and nurses. In spite of heart rending cries from ruins, res- cue work at many places could not proceed until necessary tools had been brought from Florence. Many persons are believed to have died un- der the shattered debris of their homes.
 In the earthquake zone more than 1000 houses were seriously damaged in addition to those which were ut terly destroyed. The entire popula- ton of the Reeello Valley, 20 miles southeast Of Florence, is obliged to camp in the open air, it being cons1d- cred unsafe for the people to return to their homes. The auth critics have not succeeded in supplying all the people with tents and huts and thus the exposure to the unusually cold weather, in addition to the general misery in that district, may have serious consequences.
 The railway crossing the Regello Valley has been broken, several bridges being damaged and a number of wagon roads have been blocked by rocks which slid down the mountain sides. Among the houses damaged at Regeuo was the one where Gfotto. who has been called the Father of Painting was born.

SELLECK USED CITY FUNDS FOR
 OWN PURPOSES

The financial operations of Ches- ter Se11eck. now serving a term in the States prison for shortage in his &C., counts at the Fairfield County Ma ton bank of Norwalk, were discussed in the Superior court today when there was a hearing before Judge Curtis in the suit started by the city of Norwalk against the bank.
 Seneck was treasurer of the first taxing district of Norwalk in addition to being cashier of the bank. The city's funds were in the bank and it is claimed that Selleck drew out S31,- 05S.27 from the city's deposits and used it for his own purposes. The city declares the bank recovered some of this money and appropriated it to reduce the shortage in Selleck's ac- counts as cashier. This is denied by counsel for the bank who filed mo- ton asking the city to make a, more specific statement regarding the dates and the amounts of the checks. Sel- leck drew. Judge Curtis reserved de- cision on the motion.

Curiosity nearly proved fatal to Tom and Nick Fora, one and two years old respectively, of 1S46 Main street when they found a can of lye in the street near their home.
 The infant children decided the substance had been placed there to eat, and after swallowing Q small quantity of 1t, dumped the can. the lye spattering over both of them. They were severely burned and their cries brought neighbors who sent for the emergency ambulance. Dr. E. J. Burns responded and hurried both to the emergency hospital where it was discovered they had been severely burned about the head. body and arms.
 After first aid was rendered they were taken to St. Vincent's hospital. It is expected both infants will re- cover,
