NO JAIL BIRDS
 FOR THIS COURT
Sheriff Pease Finds Spring Has Taken Old Custom
 CTS Away.

The coming of spring with it's book beer signs, green foliage and higher rents has been such a lure to some of our best known jail hounds that County Sheriff Simeon Pease finds himself without a prisoner on his hands for the Criminal Common Pleas court session, which begins in this city next Tuesday. This is the first time in the history of the county that the sheriff couldn't muster a few choice specimens to bring down from the North avenue mansion of aching hearts.
 The sheriff stated today that the court will have to content itself with a few cases of men who are out on bonds. There are cases which were appealed after sentence had been passed in the City court. In other days there were few prisoners who could afford the luxury of a bond After they appealed they Ianguished behind the bars until the next session of the Common Pleas court. It looks as if many of the jaiTs best custom CTS have found some other place to while away the hours.

Both women were about five feet four inches in height and weighed about 154 pounds. The hair of each was chestnut brown in color and the Bridgeport woman is known to have had lost several teeth and much den- tai work had been done for her by local dentist.
 The mysterious disappearance of Mrs. COnnOrs has baffled the police department of Bridgeport. She was employed as a munition worker at the U. NJ. C. O., and is supposed to have been Respondent over losing her po- sition. On March Is she left her rooming house at 1O2 Black Rock avenue, leaving her purse on a table in her room. From the condition of her effects it is supposed that she intended to return to her room in short time. The woman came back and has never been seen or heard of since. Mrs. Connors was the widow of Michael Connors, an old Bridge port resident. She was about 40 years of age but appeared to be much younger.

PANORAMA OF
 VICTORY SEEN
 BY NEW YORK One of Most Novel and Spec tacular Parades Ever Held
 on 9th Avenue. LINE OF MARCH
 WAS FIVE MILES Every Branch of Military Service From Fighters
 Down Represented.

New York, May 3-One of the most novel and spectacular parades ever held on Fifth avenue, a Panorama of Victory" staged by the army in the interest of the Victory loan, thrilled thousands today and brought home to many a full realization of America s participation in the great war.
 For more than four hours, over five miles of march, there was unfolded an ever-changing, vivid picture of the marveIs of the mighty army America had raised to help vanquish Germany. Every branch of the military service, from the front line fighters to the or ganizations that looked after health, food, weapons, transportatioA and hundreds of other necessary lines of endeavor were represented.
 Scores of tanks, great and small, crawIed over the asphalt. Squadrons of airplaues in battle formation and giant dirigibles followed the proces- sion overhead, the thunderous drum of their motors drowning the shouts of the crowd and the martial music of eighty bands The fire and smoke of the battlefield, the wall of sirens, and shattering explosions of bombs, hand grenades and guns brought a sense of the grim reality of war. More than 300 cIeverly devised floats showed the activities in a way never be- fore understood by the Iayman.
 Trenches, machine gun emp1ace- ments. dugouts. camouf1aged artillery positions. signal stations and lookout posts, all manned by fully equipped doughboys, were shown. On some of the floats, Germans in their field gray uniforms and sCuttle- shaped trench helmets were depicted for the sake of making the mimic warfare seem more realistic.
 Two of the eighteen floats of the chemical warfare service showed the wiping out of the machine guns us ed by the Germans as a rear guard for their retreat. From another float, men hurled the Stokes trench mortar bombs laying down a smoke barrage around German machine gun nests.
 Another float showed the entire process of filling gas shells from the moment of their receipt at the plant to their shipment to their dump for transportation overseas
 Other floats depicted the different military periods in American his tory.
 Cabinet officials, army and navy officers of high rank, governors of several states, federal, state and city officials and military attaches of for eign powers formed the official re viewing party.

DISAPPROvE OF
 FINANCE PLAN
U. s. Party to No Plan to Restore German
 Business.

Paris, Friday, May 2-Authoritative disa pprovaI of a plan that has been advanced for the rehabilitation of European financial credit, was ex- pressed today by the financial mem- bers of the American delegation. T. was made known definitely that the United States would not be a party to any joint action having for it's pur- pose the restoration of German busi- ness.
 The British had proposed that a German bond issue of $5,000, 900, 900 be arranged, with Great Britain, France and the United States and the other Allied and Associated Powers as guaranters. The American dele gates took the position that such a plan would be not only impracticable but contrary to American precedent
 It was explained that the British proposal included the apportionment of the issue among all the powers, in cIuding even the small, newly created governments. The apportionment was to be based upon the relative wealth of the signatories.
 One objection raised was that the failure of any one of the guaranteed to bear it's share would result in in creasing the burden and responsibil- ity of the others. thus creating a sit uation obviously unjust.

ALIEN ENEMIES WISH TO SECURE
 CITIZEN PAPERS

A list of 129 alien enemies who wish to become American citizens will await inspection by Judge Curtis when the naturalization session of the Superior court conEenes in this city next Tuesday. The majority of the applicants are natives of Germany although there are many Austrians on the list, too.
 There are many petitioners who are taking the examinations for the sec ond time. They were rejected at the last session because they failed to dis play sufficient knowledge or Aneri- can history and institutions. Those who failed were advised to attend night school and if they proved faithful students it is expected they will do better when they are exam ined next week.
 In addition to the alien enemy pe- titions there are 21? applications from natives of other countries and 65 petitions which were partly heard but continued for various causes. It is expected that the entire court week will be spent in naturalization. matters. The enemy aliens will not be considered until the other peti- tions have been disposed of.
 Special Government Examiner AL len R. Church of Boston will come to this city to question the applicants. He has already given them a prelim- mary test in order that the totally unfit may be weeded out.

Delaney DenOunces Port Of
 Bridgeport As A ''Dream''

Senator Al Delaney freely expressea himself this morning relative to the Port of Bridgeport undertaking. He referred to the amended bill in the Legislature which reduces the scope of the proposition and provides for a referendum. The senator did not say that he would not vote for the bill as amended but candid1y stated 'The Port of Bridgeport is a dream It is impossible for ships of any dimension to enter Bridgeport as there is no wa ter of any depth within nine miles of our harbor. A large ship cannot en- ter the Sound at Hell Gate, neither can they approach Bridgeport from the eastern end of the Sound. There is no doubt in my mind that if the proposition is placed before the peo- pie the whole undertaking will be defeated. The referendum will kill the Port of Bridgeport

JOHNSON SAYS
 WILSON REVERSED
Million of Chinese Sent Into Bondage Tn
 Shantung.

Washington, May 3-Senator John son of California, Republican, in a statement today charged that Presi- dent Wilson had reversed his stand upon secret treaties in the Plume dis pute and had surrendered without the semblance of a contest to Japan in the controversy over the disposition Shantung, by which he said millions of Chinese were delivered into bond age.
 "A week ago. Senator Johnson said, ''out of the darkness, the plot and counter plot the cunning intrigue and bargaining of the peace confer ence there came a ray of light when the President denounced secret treat ies.
 His press agents told us how firm ly he would stand against Italy's se- cret treaty and Japan's worse secret treaty. Within a week after an infi- tation barrage upon racial equality the Japanese boldly made their demands, and without the sembIance of contest, apparently, the President forgets his words which were still re-echoing and abjectly surrenders.
 This is simply another concrete illustration of the League of Nations Debtor nations requiring economic aid must yield but the powerful and threatening members of the League will obtain by the strong army ex- actly what it demands.
 Here at stake is a large province of China and forty millions of peo- pie. Japan had pledged her word to the world at large and specifically to the United States at the time of the taking of the province, to return 1t to China. Under her secret agree
 
 break her plighted faith and keee these lands and people, and a peace conference, pledged to self deterrnin- ation, justice to the protection of weak nations against strong, forgets it's pretenses and protestations and delivers into bondage millions of helpless people,"

Mrs. Teague Asks Thorpe to Explain to Criminal
 Authorities.

Harry Thorpe, who claims to be a broker in horses, formerly cashier of the Sheffield restaurant, Main street. appeared before the City court this morning to answer the charge of theft of a $l0O Liberty Bond and obtaining $l00 in cash under false pretenses from Mrs. Sadie Teague of 1I5 Gilbert street. Mrs. Teague testified that Thorpe was a caller at her home and that on one of his visits he became ilL She kindly allowed hi into oc- cupy a room for a week while he was recovering from his illness During this period they became very intimate and the woman showed Thorpe the bond. The next day the bond was missing. About a week later Mrs. Teague lent Thorpe $1OO and took for security a diamond ring. Thorpe then disappeared and inquiry proved that the ring was useless. These transac- tons took place in March, 1918 Thorpe was recently located in Nor wich and brought to this city by the local police.
 Thorpe denies that he represented the ring to be valuable and declares that he has any idea of the real value of it, stating that he took it in ex- change for sick horse and consid- cred he made a good trade.
 Judge Bartlett continued the case until Monday when a diamond ex- pert will testify as to the value of the ring.
