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

Senator Al Delaney freely expressed 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"

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

The coming of spring with its book beer signs. green foliage ~and higher Nrents has been such lure to some of our best known jail hounds that County Sheriff Simeon Pease finds l. 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 n 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 languished behind the bars until the next session 1, of the Common Pleas court. It looks 2 as if many of the jairs best custom CTS have found some other place to while away the hours.

DOUBTFUL STONE

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 $100 Liberty Bond and obtaining $1O0 in cash under false pretenses from Mrs. Sadie Teague of 115 Gilbert street. Mrs. Teague testified that Thorpe was a. caller at her home and that on one of his visits he became i'll. She kindly allowed hi into oc- 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 $1O0 and took for security a diamond ring. Thorpe then disappeared and inquiry proved that the ring was useless. These transac- tions 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.

NOW CONSIDERING
 AUSTRIAN PEACE
Delegates From That Coun- try Not Yet Arrived at
 Versailles. GERMANY MUST
 GIVE UP CABLES Taking of Petrograd Con sidered Great Reverse for
 BoIsheviki.
CBy The Associated Press.)

Paris, May 3-With meetings with the German peace deIega- ton already under way at Yer sailles, the question of steps in regard to making peace with Austria has been taken up. One detail that has been made known is that the Austrian peace delegation, upon it's ar rival, will be housed at St. Ger main, a suburb of Paris.
 The Italian situation took a. more favorable turn late today. The indi- cations were that some arrangement would be made for Italy to be repre- Bented when the peace treaty was presented to the Germans next week.
 With the work of framing the peace tveaty seemingly almost completed. except for some secondary matters, the Allied and German delegations at Paris are waiting for the formal presentation of the document early next week. Final decisions on several problems which must be written into the terms of peace were reached by the Council of Three yesterday.
 Germany must give up her cable systems, according to reports, but the Allies will not incorporate in the treaty the plan for the future d1spo- Bition of this property. The cables will merely remain in the hands of the five Great Powers until an agree meth is reached as to what will be done with them. This Is virtually the eaine plan said to have been adopted with tho war ships which Germany has surrendered.
 Objections over some decisions of the Council of Three are heard at Paris, the Chinese delegation issuing n statement to the effect that the &C., tion of the Council merely "substitut- ed Japan for Germany in Shantung, and gave Japan additional control of railroads in southern Aranchuria." ;" Belgium, too, is disposed to object to the conclusions of the Council, 1t be- ing reported that the Belsians will not obtain rights they demanded over tho control of the ScheIdt river or territorial concessions in the Dutch province Of LIrnburg and in German Maestricht.
 The Italian situation is still unset dled, but the American and French ambassadors at Rome are trying 10 reach an understanding with Premier Orlando. Measures have been taken CContinued on Page Two.)
