TEACHER IS
BOUND OVER
ONBURGLARY
MatuskowitZ Files a De.
murrer Which is Over
ruled By the Court.

The case of John Matuskowitz, the
teacher of prevocational training al
the Bridgeport High school and who
was arrested some time ago on charge
of burglary, came up in the City court
this morning and Matuskowitz was
bound over to the September term
Of the Superior Criminal court when
Attorney Coughlin, his lawyer, enter
ed<a demurrer to the complaint which
was overruled. The bonds in the
case were fixed at $500.
When arrested in the yards Of the
Union Sales Company in the West
End, Matuskowitz was found in a
dazed condition and could not explain
how he had got IN the place; $40 in
cash that he had on his person was
reported missing. 1t is thought that
the man was either drunk or had been
held up and assaulted as his head was
bleeding when he was taken into Gus
tody by the officer. Matuskowitz lives
on Meadow Brook Road in Fairfield

'SWindlerS
/. Are Seeking
Local Money
Old Spanish Letter Plan
Being Worked Again, Post
Office Officials Say.

An increasing number of Spanish
swindler letters are being received at
the local post office. The letters are
not new to the officials as they have
been coming through the mails for
quite a number of years. The post
Office warns the people against the
letters and advises them to pay no
attention to the missives.
This particular brand of swind1ers
operate principally in towns in Spain.
They write to persons whom they be-
lieve have a quantity of money
generally American citizens. Under
the Spanish laws~a felony must be
consumated before the police can act
so the officers can do nothing to the
men. During the war the swind-
ling, for the most part, was aban-
doned.
The letters are generally stamped
with the mark of the post Office al
Madrid. Mail coming from that
place is suspiciously watched by local
mail clerks.
The situation in each letter var
les. Sometimes the sender is a pris-
oner at a military fort in Spain. He
bhas a fortune in United States stocks
but the certificates are concealed in a
valise which was seized by the Span
ish court. The writer explains thai

.ctDay Crowds
Easily Handled
By The Jit!neyS
Jitneyrnen, in Answer to
Critics, Say That They
Promised the City
They Would Take
Care of Traffic IF the
Company Deserted the
City and That They
Have Done What They
Promised.

The ease with which the jitneys
handled the crowds during the rush
hour this morning when it was raining
heavily thoroughly disproved the con-
tention of those who have been claim.
ing for the past two weeks that the
jitneys have been favored by fine
weather and that the service would
fall down on the first wet day.
Everywhere throughout. the city
the reports were that the service fur
nished during the rain, when many
who are accustomed to walk during
fine weather boarded the jitneys for
transportation was better than given
during the past two years even when
both trolley cars and jitneys were op-
Grating together.
The officials of the bus associations
say that while from so to rs more
buses could be used to advantage on
the routes that they are able and have
been moving traffic quicker than it
has been moved for some time.
The officials call attention of the
critics to the fact that they claimed
that they would be able to handle the
traffic even though the trolley com
| pany carried out their threat to dis
continue service and that they have
done so.
To do so in the beginning they were
obliged to get assistance from the jit-
ney men of New Haven, Hartford and
| Waterbury and these buses have been
| gradually allowed to return to their
i homes as new buses arrived here
! from Boston. New York and New
| Jersey.
| New buses are coming in every day
and in a short time the required num-
| Der will be here and the routes can
be runeon schedules.
The officials also claim that they
| have shown that individual bus own
ers can be controlled by the officials
| of the bus associations with the little
| assistance they get from local author
| tiles.

PRAISES
LASHAR
Says Bridgeport Man
Would Make a Splen-
did Candidate for Gov

gan and Fitzgerald AL
so - Believes Cum
mings Will Be Nomi-
nee for Senator.

In an Interview with the Hartford
Times yesterday Thomas ]. spellacy.
who was the Democratic candidate
for governor, launched the boom of
Walter B. Lashar of this city, for
governor. He also said that Congress
man Augustine Lonergan of Hartford
and Mayor David E. Fitzgerald of
New Haven, would make splendid
candidates. This is what he said:
IF I were consulted about my own
personal preference said Mr.. Spell
lacy, 81 would rejoice in the oppor-
tunity to return to the private prac-
tice of law and to render active as
sistance in the publication of the
Hartford Post" He added how
ever, that he had never refused to
answer the call of his country or his
party and did not anticipate a time
when he would not be willing to fore
go his own inclinations for the op-
portunity of public service.
AT present. said Mr.. Spellacy, 81
can see no reason for the injection
of my name in the political arena
Many have asked me if I am again
TO De the Democratic nominee for
governor. Naturally, the answer tc
that question depends upon the wishes
of the Democratic party and the ac-
ton. 1t would be presumptions fo1
me to answer in the affirmative and
1t certainly would be ungracious fol
me to reply in the negative. I an
conscious of the many honors that
have received from my party and g
sense of gratitude, if nothing else
would compel me to maze almost any
sacrifice if my Democratic associate.

Pointing to the great assets in the
local political field. Mr.. Spellacy sait
that Connecticut democracy ha6

the governorship. Here in Hartford
he said, I'VE have Congressman Au
gustine Lonergan. He has servd si1
years in Congress and this summer i:
taking the first vacation he has had il
all that time. His rugged honesty, de
votion to the work in which he is en-
gagged, his natural ability coupled
with his long years of experience, hi:
broad vision and high ideals pre-
eminently qualify him for the COVER
norship. The citizens of Hartford
county have repeatedly shown theil
faith in Mr.. Lonergan. In a yeal
when his party went down to defea
in the national elections he received
his largest majority, carrying his owl
