COMMISSIONERS
 TO GET RULING
 ANENT REFUNDS
Cannot Decide Which Ii. quor Dealers Are Entitled
 to Money Back.

The question of which liquor deal CTS are entitled to 8 refund has prov ed a puzzle to the county commis' sioners and they will probably ask State Attorney General Healy to make a ruling on the question within a short time. Within the past few days many dealers have visited the offices of the commissioners in the county courthouse and all have de. manded a refund regardless of whether they have been using the H. cense since July 1. 1919.
 The law simply provides that the money shall be refunded to the deal CT for the unused portion of his H. cense when he surrenders the license It does not state definitely when the surrender shall be made Comnfs sioner Frank B. Ballard stated thi; morning that 1t will be difficult tc prove whether a dealer has beer selling under his license since las July.
 No money has yet been refunded because it Is a lengthy process, re- quiring a requisition on the treasure! of the place where the dealer Is To- cated and the return of the money tt the commissioners who. in turn, give it back to the dealer. No money was received for 1920 licenses, st there will be no complications abou that The commissioners took onl. applications for 1920.

Geneva, Jan. 17-Austrian war ves- sels which, under the terms of the peace treaty must be handed over to the allies, have undergone a sec ond "Scapa Flow" but on a smaller scale, according to telegram re- ceived here from Turin by way of Lugano.
 The despatch states that the a1- lied naval commission which arrived recently at Cattaro confirms first re- ports that the Austrian fleet had been seriously disabled.
 The 1Austrians were said to have de- stroyed or removed the principal parts of the machinery of the ships, render ing them incapable of navigation, only the hulls remaining in good condition Repairs, it is said, will require several months before the vessels can be made ready for the sea.
 The fleet includes one batt1eship, 3t large cruisers, four torpedo cruisers 12 torpedo boats and some smaller craft.
 The Austrians are declared to have acknowledged the damage but have blamed the Czecho-Slovaks and the Jugo Slavs. The ships eventually will be lowed to Tou1on and Marseilles fol repairs

DESCHANEL IS CHOSEN HEAD OF
 FRENCH NATION
Voting Secret and Great Interest Taken In
 Election.

Versailles, Jan. 17.---Paul Deschanel was elected president of France by the national assembly here today. M. Deschanel received 734 votes out of a total of 8s9 cast.
 The only printed ballot distributed bore M. Deschanei's name.
 There were comparatively few ab- stentions from the voting, which pro- ceeded so slowly that two hours was the estimated time for the completion of the roll call.
 As the balloting progressed there was no indication whatever as to the result, or even as to how many can didates were being voted for.
 The calling of the roll was com pleted at s:o9 o'clock.
 While the voting was going on within the chateau the scenes outside were tranquil. A regiment of in- fantry was drawn up beyond the principal gate to the palace enclo- sure, and outside the line of soldiery was an orderly crowd of some thou sands of persons who had gathered to see the distinguished arrivals an6 to learn the first news of the election All the approaches to the park were held by detachments of soldier: I to keep out intruders.

Audits of Board of Edu- cations Books Pro- gressing and Will Clear Up All Difficult ties-WilI Be Able to Fix Responsibility.

Brdgeport's school teach CTS will in all probability re- ceive a flat increase of $500 in place of the 25 per cent. recommended by the mayor and asked by the Board of Education, according to Will liam B. Seeley, president of the Board of Apportionment.
 It was stated by the Board of An- portdonment this morning through MT. Seeley that the recommendation of Dr. IA c. Tones to the Chamber of Commerce would probably be adopted and the subcommittee of the board is investigating now.
 MT. Seeley also said that the audit would clear up the difficulty and com plaints now being received about teach CTS in the same grade rating receiv- ing more or less than one another It is pointed that the higher 8 teachers salary the more her increase would amount to under the % per cent. i'm crease while a fiat rate of $500 would be better all must pay more for goods and not in proportion to what they are receiving.
 MT. Seeley claims that 6 number Of complaints have been received and he hopes that the audit will clear 1t up He said that the men were also 4n- vestigating the way money was spent and why. In this way the board hopes to center the responsibility and they make no bones about saying that

HOLDS LACROIx bLAMELESS FOR WOMAN'S DEATH
Coroner Finds Horger Fatal ity Caused By Glare of
 Trolley Light.

Ray LaCroix of this city was held blameless for the death of Mrs. Julia Horger, aged 62, by a finding made today by Coroner Phelan. The coro- ner declared LaCroix was driving carefully at the time Of the fatality but because of the glare of a trolley car headlight and rain on the wind shield, his view of the street was somewhat obstructed.
 The accident happened on Golden Hill street Jan. last. LaCroix was approaching the corner of Middle street when Mrs. Horger started to cross the street to meet her son-in- law, who was waiting to take her to her home in Trumbull. LaCroix said he did not see the woman and did not know she had been struck until he heard shouts from bystanders.
 Mrs. Horger worked in the Crown Corset Go. plant and was on her way home when she was killed. Wit nesses said she started to run across the street and evidently did not see the automobile.

U. $. Aerial Mail Held to Carry Medicine to
 Fordham Hospital. HOPED TO REACH
 NEW YORK AT 5

Chicago, Jan. 1.-The United States aerial mail plane to New York was de- layed this morning to wait for a package of anti-toxin, rushed by automobile from the University of Illinois at Urbana and which is urgent ly needed at the Fordham hospital in New York for treatment of three cases of food poisoning.a
 The call for the anti-toxin was re- ceived at Urbana at 1 o'clock this morning in 8, message from Dr. John Riegelman, medical examiner of the Bronx which said the package must be in New York in less than 24 hours or it would be too late. Because trains do not make the trip quickly enough it was suggested the anti toxin be forwarded by airplane.
 L. S. A1les, manager of the United States mail service here was appealed to, and promised to hold the first mai plane, scheduled to depart at day break, until the precious package was received.
 Two girls in New York, whose pa rents and two brothers died after, eat ing tainted olives, and a youth, wht also was stricken, can escape deatf only by use of the anti-toxin, attend ing physicians believed.
 The anti-toxin was perfected bl Professor Robert Graham, head of thu chemical department of the Univer l sity of Illinois, and first was used T Detroit in the cases of a number O i persons who had fallen ill after eatin, olives.
 ] In the Detroit case five persons wh' attended a dinner October g, diet within four days of g, srange foo' poison, newly discovered and calle' botulism Two others were danger l ously i'll for weeks. All had eaten rip olives.

 There is no way to detect the pre-

 The anti-toxin arrived shortly aft 8 o'clock from Urbana, but carburett
 trouble delayed the start of the plar still further. At 9:45 a. n- m
