JUDGE ANDERSON PUTS MINE HEADERS W JAIL
 ON CONTEMPT CHARGE
ARMY TRANSPORT CREW
 HELD FOR SEA MUTINY
I. w. w. Agitator Said to Have Caused Part of
 Trouble.

New York, Dec. 22.-Two petty off, cers and nine members of the crew of the |. $. army transport Am erica, charged with mutiny on the high seas, and other crimes. faced an official in vestigation today on board the ship at her pier at Hoboken. Six other mem- bers of the crew are reported to be in the transports hospital suffering from gunshot wounds received during the mutiny or in fights. Unofficial reports said the trouble was fomented by an I. ". w. agitator.
 When the America docked yesterday after having landed the United States peace delegates at quarantine Saturday night, the accused men were taken ashore in irons and the story of the mutiny, reading something like those of the old days when pirates sailed the main, was revealed, in part 1t is charged that the men attempted to leave the ship without permission, let tlre fires die out, imperilled her safety by cutting off the electric lights com mltted petty robberies, frightened women passengers and gan1bIed in de- fiance of the officers.
 One of the ringleaders Is said to be William Calkins, an ordinary seaman, charged with being a member of the I. W. w. He had been arrested at sea, but escaped the armed guard until the transport was researched after docking.
 Special attention was given at the investigation to Calkins' case He is said to have joined the ship ten min utes before she sailed from Hobol1en , on the round trip which ended yester- day and to have announced that he had been sent to join the crew. The investigators are seeking to determine whether a crew recruiting agency or of professional agitators sent" him.
 Positive denial was made that six men had been wounded in the mutiny and now were in the sick bay hospital recovering from gunshot wounds. It was said, however, that six men had died on the voyage-fve from pneu- monia and one from drowning.
 Denial that there had been a mutiny in the transport America, which dock cd here yesterday with IS men in the brig was made today by Major Gen. David c. Shanks, commander of the port of authorization, in a telegram to Brig. Gen. Frank T. Hines of trans portation o fhe war department.
 The trouble the telegram said, re- bcrs of the crew to obey instructions permitting shore liberty and pilfering of ships stores and cargo.

SCHOOL ENUMERATION NEARING COMPLETION
Figures in Hands of State Board Indi- cate This Years Grant Will Be
 High-Keport Incomplete.

Hartford, Dec 22.--Of the 16S towns in the state, 27 have not made a report to the state comptroller of the mum Der of children between the ages Of i and It in their respective toWns.hA The amount of the enumera- ton grant which the state pays an nually to the towns is at the rate of $225 per child of school age. The enumeration of 1918 showed 325,4 5 children of school age in the state The amount of the grant paid was 93,86135.
 It is impossible to state at this time the amount of the grant for the pres ent fiscal year. It is safe to say, how ever. that it will be in excess of the amount Of last years grant and will be appreciably over $700,000. While there has been dor~nos'r he num- Der of school children in some of the small towns there has been a nota ble increase in others.
 Delinquent towns are liable to d for feiture of the grant in part Or in whole. Seven were subjected to a for feiture in 1918. The towns which have failed this year to make a report of their school enumera tion to the comptroller on or before Decem Der 5 are are therefore delinquent, are: An sonia, Berlin. Bridgeport. Bristol, Ca naan, Canterbury, Cheshire, Colches- ter, Cornwall, IIastford, East Granby, East Hartford Fairfield, Granby. Hartland, Lisbon, Naugatuck, New Fairfield, North Branford, Old Lyme, Portland, Saybrook, Sharon, South Windsor, Wallingford, Warren and Windsor Locks.
 Enumeration reported from some of the larger places are New Haven (Westville district only) 1884; Hart ford, 29,599: New London, 5,9S6; Norwich, 6.363; Windham, 3,OS3; Wa terbury, 2S,3S6; Putnam, 1862; I<il- ingly, 1,595; Stamford, 1O,O30; Mid dletown, 5,110; Danbury, 5,119; Nor walk 6,510: Greenwich, 5,255: New Britain, 5,043; Winchester, 2,134.

Bridgeport Probate Court Baffled By Will of Former SaIoon-kccpcr
 There

Bridgeport, Dec 22.-War-time prohibition reached into the probate court here for the first time today when it's effect upon attempted settle ment of an estate puzzled Judge Paul l.. Miller.
 James Mclean who owned a hotel and saloon died prior to July 1 last when wartime prohibition became law. His will provided that half of his interest in the saloon should go to his widow, Mrs. c. L. Mclean, and the other half to his son, Howard K. Mclean. Late in the summer, Mrs. Mclean closed the saloon because it could not be maintained without a loss. The question before the court was that of settlement of the estate. The son sues the estate to recover his rightful share in the saloon and claims that the saloon could have been run at a profit. In the saloon is a stock of liquor. As the ban is against the sale of liquor Judge Mil Ter cannot order it sold, and he can not give it to the heirs as the will contains specific bequests. If the president should lift the wartime ban before January 16 there will be a chance to sell out the stock. If the ban is not lifted the heirs may have to devise their own means of divid- ing the liquors.

RECORD BREAKING
 BUSINESS IS DONE
Local Merchants Report Larger Sales Than Ever Before in History
 of Trade Here.

According to the statements made by several leading m merchants, Satur- days business was the greatest in the history of the city and from the pres ent outlook the remaining three days days before Christmas, will be record breaking ones. One prominent Main street merchant affiliated with the clothing business, asserted that the business done in his establishment Saturday was double that of last year and was the largest ever done in the history of his store.
 Another man, who has been in the clothing business for the past 25 years asserted that he never in the history of his store or in the history of the city as far as he can remember, did as large d business as on Satur- day. He said that ii was not the utIes- ton Of price with the New Britain consumers but the question of getting the material that suited them. This same merchant asserted that as a mat ter of fact the past week has been d record breaki week and more buNi- han there ever was dhring the week previous to Christmas.
 ''Why, my place was so congested and the business so great that I could not even sec my personal friends, one Main street merchant asserted
 Stores for the remaining two days before Christmas will be open until 10 o'clock each evening.
