LINDSEY
 WON'T PAY FINE
Denver Judge Says He Would Rather Go To
 Jail.

Denver, Colo, June 17.-Ben B. Lindsey. Judge of Denver's juvenile court, will go to jail before nc will criminal court he has announced. The Colorado Supreme Court, on June 2. denied Judge Lindseys peti-
 ton for a rehearing. The Judge had fifteen days to pay or go to jail, if
 the court insisted.
 The fine was assessed when Judge Lindsey, in May, 1915, declined to tell I what Neal Wright, 14-year-old ward of the Juvenile court, had told the judge about the shooting of Nears father. Nears mother was on trial charged with murder. Neal was the only eye witness. Mrs Wright was acquitted.
 Judge Lindsey refused to testify at the trial, insisting that whatever information he possessed regarding the killing had been given him by the boy in confidence and he could not and would not violate the boys con- hdence. Soon after the trial John A. Perry, then judge of the criminal court, found his fellow-judge guilty of contempt and assessed the $500
 fine. Judge Lindsey appealed to the supreme court. The fine was upheld by a majority of the justices-three of them, however, dissenting On June
 2, last, the Colorado Supreme Court denied Judge Lindsey rehear-
 Ing.
 Judge Lindsey announced that ir
 refusing to pay the fine he is not act Ing upon a personal point of view
 but considers that as the Denver Ju-
 venile Court is one of the oldest in
 the United States, all other courts
 look to it to uphold It's rights. And one of these Is that a relation of cir cumstances given in confidence to a Juvenile court judge is not to be used in any other proceedings.
 The judge has received letters from many of the judges throughout the
 United States urging him to maintain
 his stand. Various children's agencies have offered to pay the fine for hirH. < No matter what the Supreme
 Court decided, I still believe and will always believe tfrat what Neal Wright told me was told me in strictest cons fdence and that I would have been unworthy to hold the position I now
 hold if I had testified" said Judge Lindsey. The fact that four justices of the Supreme Court says I was wrong does not make 1t so. I am not going to pay that fine, because if II did I would admit I was wrong" Neal Wright, the boy involved, en- listed in the army at the beginning of the war and is now serving in France.

TANKS DID NOT
 NEED INVITATION

Rome, June 17.-(Corresponden of The Associated Press )-CardinaI Merry Del Val laughed over what he termed "a genuine American trick" when a group of American soldiers and sailors visiting the Vatican under the direction of Rev. Father Edward Wallace of Brooklyn, N. r., who served with the E1ghtteth Division brushed aside formalities, cajoled the liveried watchman at the Cardinals palace and gained an audience with the prince of the church without either invitation or announcement
 The men were sightseeing in the Vatican when Father Wallace point ed out Cardinal Merry De Vars resi- dence
 Let's call on the cardinal" sug sested a Philadelphia lad serving with the Keystone division.
 They all agreed and bolstered up their claim to call by the fact that the cardinal had visited America, and this would only be in the nature of return call from hosts of his.
 Headed by Father Wallace, they met the watchman Tn his vari-colored uniform and halberd and made known their mission.
 But you cannot call upon the cardinal except by invitation" said the guard.
 We do not use invitations to call upon one another in America res turned Father Wallace in Italian "All of us are Americans and Card-l inal Merry Del Val will understand.z He knows our customs for he has lived in America
 The guard accepted the situation and made known the identity of tho callers to the Cardinal who ordered the men shown up to the reception rooms, where he went to meet them-
 ''I am glad to see you, gentlemen" he said to them. Tt Is not often peo-' pie get to see me but you have done it by a genuine American trick. which I enjoy immensely. I am al- ways glad to see Americans"

WILL CONTINUE
 TO MAKE AND
 SELL 2.75 BEER

Louis Kutscher, head of the Home Brewing Company, when informed of the decision against 2.75 per cent. beer stated that his company would continue to make and sell 2.75 per cent. beer until unofficial notice from some one in authority had been re- ceived to stop the manufacture. And then" said MT. Kutscher this after noon," we will decide what will be done after that. I had not known of this decision until I was told of it by the reporter and there is not time enough to make plans as to future policy"
 The attitude of MT. Kutscher which is the attitude of brewers in other parts of the state, will probably be followed by all of those engaged in the business here in Bridgeport So long as there Is a demand for 2.75 per cent. beer it will be made and the production will probably continue while the fight is being waged in the United States Supreme Court, un- less that court should issue order restraining the manufacturers.

NATIONAL OFFICERS OF MATTERS UNION AGAIN ACCUSED OF INSTICATING BOY
 COTT-HEARING TOMORROW

Following the precedent established in the famous Loewe boycott suit. in which the Danbury hat manufacturer secured a. verdict after years of Htiga- tion that finally ended in the United States Supreme Court, against mem- bers of the United Hatters of North America, the Rosenwald- Wimpf heimer Company of Norwalk, has started proceedings against the na- tonal officers of the Hatters' Union and the locals of Norwalk and Dan bury.
 The company of which Charles Wimpfheimer is principal owner claims that it was happily operating as a union ship and desired to do so; that the number of union shops mak ing fur bodies for it's use was not enough to meet ts demands and that the bodies had to be secured from open" shops which resulted in 9 strike of the Wimpfh elmer employees: that to continue operations it was necessary to resume work as an open shop and since such a move was made, officers of the national organ ization and their agents together with agents of the locals of Norwalk and Danburyr have been carrying on 8
 
 goods of the company and endeavor- ing to restrain manufacturers from furnishing bodies.
 A temporary injunction restraining g the union men under penalty of $1 ,O0O from continuing the campaign has been issued and a hearing will be given the union officials in the superior court here tomorrow morn ing at 1O:15 before Judge William M. Maltbie. The injunction suit is to be followed by ali action for large damages in which the members of the union will as in the Loewe case be cited as the defendants.
 Jeremiah Scully, John O'Hara. Michael Greene, all of Danbury; Roy aid Raymond of Norwalk. Charles Cullen and Martin Lawlor of New York are the officias of the Hatters' union who are enjolined. They are affiliated with Locals No. 10 and il of the United Hatterh of North Am erica.
 The R. x W. Hat Shop claims to have orders to the amount of s400, GOO and says the profits on these have decreased 25 per cent. because of the present trouble. The shop where the hat bodies were made is conducted by George McLa achlan in Danbury.

PACKERS WERE

 SUPPLY ALLIES
Industry Mobilized for War Basis Before Lusitania
 Was Sunk,

Kansas City, Mo, July 24.-Soma of the great accomplishments of American business during the war are just beginning to creep to the sur face now that the ban of censorship has been removed
 The preparation and handling of meat food products was one of the was fortunate for the country that the packing industry was already mobilized for service long before the Lusitania was sunk
 The manner Tn which the packers met the emergencies which acrose during the war is well illustrated in the case of Swift & Co.,, who, in one week. filled a government order for S2,00O.00O pounds of meat and fat. This necessitated the dressing of 13.- 600 cattle and 100000 hogs. and re- quired 1000 freight cars to trans port
 Another instance is found in an order which was received one Sat urday afternoon at o'clock for D.. 100000 pounds of a special cut of dry salt meats The War Department wanted this shipment of fortythree cars boxed and on the way by tho following Tuesday noop-less than seventy hours distant. Swift & Go. had the last car loaded and rolling an hour before noon on Tuesday.
 In still another case the govern ment could get no one to put up fresh butter in tins for overseas shipment. Swift & Co.,, accepted an order for 50o,ooO pounds on May 4, 1918. It necessary n an11in fbTea cries with machinery and supplies and to organize the help to do work entirely new to them, but the first car was rolling eastward in thirty three days, and a month later the entire order was completed.
 A total of s550, 0,000,00o worth of supplies was furnished by Swift & Go. alone to the American and Allied governments during the war. The peak was reached in December 1913, when the goods furnished totalled $35, 5,0O0,000 in this one month.

WIFE DID NOT
 HAVE TO TELL
 OF PAST ACTS

The mere fact that a wife conceals her infidelity from her husband does not absolve him from the duty of sup porting her. Judge Curtis of the Su- perior court decided today when he made ruling in the case of Sally Noble Bean of New York against Sdd- ney A. Bean, & wealthy Greenwich resident. The court ruled that inas- much as Mrs. Bean is still the wife of the Greenwich resident she is enti- tied to such remedies to secure her support as the law allows.
 Bean claimed that his wife had been unfaithful to him 12 years ago but did not tell him. For that reason he said he was not reuired to pay her S1OO month, as he had previously agreed to. Counsel for Mrs. Bean maintained that there was no duty on the wife who has been unfaithful to tell her husband of the fact and the mere concealment of this from the husband was not a fraud on the part of his wife.
 Mrs. Bean sued her husband last year for divorce, alleging infideIity and named Sybil Elwood as cores pondent. Her husband filed a cross complaint in which he accused Mrs. Bean of infidelity. The court dis; missed both complaints

 ssss mo account of the charge of selling liquor could be directed in case the jury round that the person receiving the liquor would not be in toxicated thereby. The only defense would be that no person could receive any intoxicating effect therefrom or in other words that it was not beer of the sort. which congress had in mind in using the word beer in the meaning of that word as used at the time of the passage of the act in other words any kind of malt beer which was in the legal sense an 1n- toxicating liquor as congress and public usageu understood the term. It could never be intended to leave to each jury the right to decide what 1t considered intoxicating liquor and on the contrary 1t was not intended to leave to a jury the right to say what congress meant.
