NEWTON DEFENDS LOYAL
CUSTOMS INSPECTORS
Collector Says Staff Desires to
Weed Out Dishonesty.

Fornlulat ton OF charges and OF the
evidspce upon which they rest was com
pleted yesterday against one additional
customs inspector. Collector Byron Fl.
Newton announced.
When the Collector was told that the
inspectors and examiners, as a whole.
were inclined to resent what they con-
sidered a wholesale indictment of the
integrity OF the service and that COM
mittee Of their local organization In
tended to wait upon him, he said he
would be very glad TO receive such a del
egation and to reiterate what he already
has assured the newspaper reporters re-
peatedly-that the morale Of the SER
vice. as a whole. Is sound.
Men who have acted in COLLISION
with habitual smugglers." he said. ARE
decidedly exceptional. Furthermore,
am confident nobody Is more anxious to
weed out the unreliable and unfaithful
delinquents than are the rank and file
OF the customs inspection service. Some
OF these men have helped Loyalty 70
purge the force OF the undeslrables.
I'm fairness 10 the force AZ a whole
continued the Collector, II want TO say
that the majority of the men in the GUS
toms service are honest and loyal and
under no suspicion whatever. It is I'M
fair and unjust that these men should
suffer from the corrupt conduct Of a
few. and I hope the public will under
stand that the purpose OF this investi-
cation Is not to discredit the customs
personnel as whole. have no doubt
we shall be able to get rid Of the lin
tied number Of undesirables and to sup
press the practices for which they are
responsible"

With the fate OF the Lockwood COM
naittee han cling upon the result OF con-
ference to be held in Albany tomorrow.
II appeared probable yesterday that an
effort would be made to effect a compro-
mise between the Observation-Disclosures
forces, who have been insisting upon
thorough investigation of the banks ana
insurance companies. and their oppo-
nents, who thus far have battled sue
cessfully to prevent such an investiga-
ton.
This conference will be attended in
all probability by State Senator Clayton

Speaker II. Edmund Machold. Senator
Charles C. Lockwood, chairman of the
Committee on Housing, and Samuel IN

vices to it since II began It's public
hearings. with the record so far OF about
200 indictments. Mr.. Untermyer ana
Senator Lockwood are expected to leave
this city for Albany tomorrow morn
ing.
At the conclusion OF this conference It
probably will be known whether Mr.. IN
termyer will continue to act as volunteer
counsel to the committee in conducting
further investigation TO delve Into the
relation of the loan market to the hous-
ing shortage. and his decision doubtless
will hinge upon the success which the
compromise proposal meets.
More than ever before Mr.. Untermyer
is satisfied that the committees work
cannot be completed without an over

only be done through questioning OF Of

 Rock Bass, Red Eye.
 tAmbloplites Rupestris)
 In shape the rock bass is somewhat similar. to the black bass. It reaches a length of from II to Is inches and a weight of two and a half pounds. It is avery fine table fish. and having a voracious appetite, is a free bitter and game fighter.
 The rock bass will strike live min nows and the artificial fly It is found in the streams as well as in the ponds of the state.

 The warmouth bass, or goggle- e-eye IS frequently mistaken for the rock bass, which it very much resembles, The warmouth is smaller than the rock bass. In color it's back is dark green. clouded with red or bronze; below it is yellowish, with dusky spots. It reaches a length of only 10 inches.
 The wafmouth will take q live p,;,, now, cricket, grasshopper or roach with avidity, and in running water it puts up game fight.
 Sunfishes.
 Native to the waters of Alabama are no less than 15 varieties of sun fish. I shall, however, attempt only to describe what I consider to be the most important members of this family. This fish is a subspecies of the bass family. A large percentage of the population of Alabama fish for sunfish.

 The blu-gill Dream is-not only one of the largest, but also the gamest Of all sunfishes. It is found in all suita- ble fresh waters of Alabama, and It's flesh is regarded by many epicures as being superior to that of any other fish, The blue-gill reaches a length of from 12 to 14 inches and frequent ly attains weight of one and one- half pounds.
 Many expert fishermen consider lur- ing the blue gill by the use of a long light rod and long line with no sink CT, with a cricket or a roach as a bait, as amongst the finest sport to be had in fishing.

found in the fresh waters of Alabama is the striped bass--the rock fish as it is commonly called. This anadrom- ous fish ascends the rivers and streams of Alabama, cmptying into salt water, during the spring of the year for the purpose of spawning. The striped bass Is deeper in width than the black bass and its mouth relatively smaller. It has black stripes extending it's entire length, and it frequently attains a weight of over 100 pounds. It is sometimes mistaken for the black bass.
 I have been informed by number of the older sportsmen that 30 or 40 years ago, fishing for rock fish at the mouths of small clear water creeks. emptying into the Tallapocsa and Ala bama rivers, was indulged in by largs numbers of fishermen and With great success. These fishermen used large skip jacks" or white suckers for bait.
 The striped bass, however, takes wooden minnows or other artificial bait. During last season, R. L. Martin of Selma, landed a magnificent speci- men of striped bass near the mouth of Fish river, Baldwin county. which fish weighed 12 pounds. During the present season, MT Mallory of Pensacola, took one in Perddo river, while casting for black bass. which weighed ten pounds.
 Rock fish fights are said to be among the most interesting contests, which go on between male fishes for the possession of q mate. When the female is ready to spawn, the male fish will surround her in great numbers. She will weigh from ten to 50 pounds, while the males will weigh only from two or three pounds. The males fight until the water is bloody and until they are often terribly gashed and many are killed in the fray.
 Jack Salmon; WalI-Eyed Pike.
 (Stizostebion Viteum)
 The wall-eyed pike, or jack salmon as 1t is commonly called in Alabama, is game fish of the highest order. Its body is slender and its greatest width is just behind the head; it's mouth is large. it's scales are small and it has sharp teeth with which it frequently cuts the line after it has been hooked.

File Appeal In
 Miranti Case

The case of Frank Miranti against Lydia R. Gallo, again came to the front yesterday. afternoon when At torney Samuel Reich filed an appeal to the Supreme court. Twice has this case been stopped upon motion for non-suit, and on Tuesday Judge John E. Keeler heard a. motion for setting aside the decision of non-suit, but the motion was denied.
 Damages of s5,000 were originally asked, this later being amended to s1O,OOO An accident at the corner of Merriam and Lind1ey streets in which Miranti, riding a motorcycle, and Mrs Gallo driving an automobile, causing serious injuries to Miranti, is the cause of the suit.
 Miranti was in the hospital for many months, and planes the de- fendant, saying that she was operat- ing her car on the left hand side of the roadway. She suddenly turned to the right. just as Miranti turned to the left in an effort to dodge her machine.
 The defense has contended that because of the slew speed of the mo- torcycle, the plaintiff could have avoided the accident by stopping or turning to the curb, but instead be- came frightened and excited to a state causing contributory negligence this being the ground for the non suit plea. of Judge Carl Foster, which Judge Kee1er allowed.

The accompanying illustration gives a fair idea Of the mammoth new Sla- ter Shoe Store / recently opened at 1200-1202 Main street. Coming to this city but @ few short years ago Skaters opened the store at 112S Main street where the entire building was devoted to footwear for men, women and children. Under the able man agement of A. l.. Heller the buSine neSS has grown beyond the confines of. that structure so that the company was forced to look elsewhere for more commodious quarters in which to house the ever increasing business and to be able to give the customary Slater service to the patrons.
 The building has been completely rebuilt, entire new interior and at tractive new show windows. Nothing has been spared to make this the finest store of it's kind in this section. The ground floor is devoted to the display of mems and women's foot wear. The second floor being given over to the children's department and the office of the manager. A force of experienced salesmen drained in the Slater system of service are at all times ready to serve the customer.
 The store in Bridgeport is the 1arg- est in the Slater chain of shoe stores. The company has stores in Boston, Worcester, Newark, Hoboken, Lowell, Providence, Springfield and Hartford and are planning to open ether stores this spring.
