McAuliffe Reported Pre- pairing ToDemand Free dom From Jail On Writ Of Habeas Corpus To Be Presented ToFederal Court-Alcorn Will Oppose It

Hartford, Oct. 4.-Thomas A. Me- Auliffe, who has been U. S. prohibition enforcement officer for Connecticut, was still in Hartford jail at noon to- day in default of 1000 on the war rants which charge him with accept ing brfbes in an alleged conspiracy to protect men who were running" whiskey into New Britain by motor truck. It was expected by McAuliffe that Ee would have bondsInen before the day was over.
 May Seek Freedom.
 It was reported here that McAuliffe intended to apply for writ of habeas corpus to the federal court and that the application would be made by his attorney Harry K. Call nen before the day was over. Judge E. s. Thomas of the district court< was expected to be in this city late in the day and it was thought that the application would be made to him. In that case States Attorney Alcorn will appear for the state in oppo- sition to the application. The fact that McAuliffe had expressed belief that he would be out of jail during the day was looked upon by the state police as an indication his at- torney was contemplating action of some kind.
 Charles and Semuel Giardino of New Britain, arrested yesterday on the charge of having given bribes to Mo- Auliffe, also held in s15,000 each also were expectant of being bailed out within few hours.
 Arthur H. Harris, a trucknan of New Britain, arrested as a material witness in the case against MaAuliffe and the Giardini brothers was re- leased this noon when his father. Ed- ward H. Harris of 143 Adams street, this city, gave a bond of S5,o00.
 Arrests Today Unlikely.
 Supt. RobeH Hurley of the state po- lice said at noon in response to in- quiries made as to the correctness of reports current here and in New Brit ain that other arrests were to be made. said that he did not believe any ad- ditional arrests would be made today. Tn New Britain the report was that state police have been searching for several persons in connection with whiskey running and that arrests gen. orally would not be made until man of some prominence had been located. This man is said to have been absent from home since Saturday.
 BlakeSlec in Charge.
 United States District Attorney E. L.. Smith, upon learning yesterday after noon of the arrest of McAuliffe, sent U. S. Agent Kelleher to take charge of McAuliffe's office at New Haven. and the officer stayed in that ofiice all night. Today he turned the office over to Ralph H. Blakeslee of North Haven who has been temporarily ap- pointed by Prohibition Director H E. Mackenzie to be enforcement officer.
 Bonds Total S261,000.
 The holding of Harris as a material witness in the liquor cases makes four teen men under arrest in the Wrinkle death case and whiskey running eases together, in which the total amount of bonds is s261,000.

Body To Be Selected.

Paris, Oct. 4.-By Associated Press. .)-America's "unknown sol- dier" who will find honored sepulchre in the national cemetery at Arlington Va, will be selected by non-com- missioned officer of the American forces on the Rhine at Chalons-sur- Marne on the morning of October 24 The body will leave Havre late on the evening of October 25 on board the United States cruiser Olympia
 Minister of War Barthou, several French generals, Gen. Allen and other French and American officials will go to Havre to attend the ceremonies.
 M. Barthou informed Gen. Allen yesterday that Marshal Foch would decorate the unknown Noldier with the French military medal and the war cross at Arlington cemetery on Mo- vember II, when the body will be bur- jed. ...
 Takes All Precautions.
 Gen. Allen has taken the most com plete precautions to insure the selec- tion of a body which is impossible of Identification. The bodies of four un- identified soldiers, one from each of the four prominent American ceme- teries in France will be assembled near the railway station at Chalons-sur- Marne. They will be unidentified men who fell in the American fighting areas, so that it will be certain to be an active service man who is selected
 One non-commissioned officer from each unit of the American forces in Germany will act as escort, the num- Der not exceeding "A, and six Ameri- can privates will be pallbearers.
 Gen. Allen said today he wanted the American people to know that every precaution was being taken that the body of the American soldier selected was beyond all possibility of identifi- cation and that the people of the United States were assured that the body was that of an American who died fighting.
 The date of the Olympia's arrival at New York is uncertain, but probably will be November or 5.
