Sued For Sl6,O0O
 Glad To Get
 $50 Settlement

Bringing suit for damages of s16,- 900, Thomas Aiken, this city was glad to make a settlement for $50 and withdraw his suit. This was the surprising outcome of jury trial case that was started before Judge Christopher L. Avery in Superior court, this morning.
 Aiken claimed to have had a years agreement with his employer, Sam uel Finkelstein, a clothing merchant of 463 East Main street. He further claimed that he was to receive salary and half of the profits. He claimed in addition that the profits, which he did not receive according to the allegations, amounted to S16, 900. Finkelstein was on hand to defend the suit. Both sides had large gallery of witnesses.
 Ffnkelstein denied all allegations There was general surprise expressed in court at the sudden collapse of the case. Prominent counsel had been retained flor each of the par ties involved, and the proportion of the settlement, $50 for SIG. 900. caus- ed much unusual conjecture and con1- anent.
 At 2 o'clock this afternoon first tes- fimony will be taken in the two cases of Anthony Chapu1is against the Ideal Coal company for damages of S10. 900 for the killing of each of his daugh- fers, Mary and Annie, who were the victims of the collapse of the coal wall on September g.

CITY ENGINEER
 TO DECIDE ON
 SEWER LOCATION

City Engineer James A. McEroy hereafter will wield the sceptre Of power when it comes to deciding upon the location and construction Of new sewers. Steps were taken by the alerrnanic sewers committee last night to effect the closest cooperation with MT. McElroy to benefit by ms experience and advise on the techni- cal and scientific end of the commit tees work.
 The changes put into effect by the committee diverts radically from the practises of past administrations. and will systematic on a plane of eff1- ciency important work that in the past had been handled in a more or less careless manner.
 In the past petitions from property owners for new sewers reached the committee from the Board of Alder men, and were considered solely In the light of & business proposition with no consid eration S1yhatsoever for the scientific importance of the sewer of its location. Usually the most per- sistent petitioners were the most sue cessful, and permits were issued for the sewers irregardless of the value property owners who would be bene- f1ted.
 Hereafter, when the petition reaches the committee it will be re- is intimately acquainte with the en- tire sewer situation He knows the trunk lines and the subsidiaries, and where new sewers are most needed and where they will do most good. When he has decided upon the inn portance of the petition, his recom- mendation to the committee will be adopted.
 Mir McElroy was instructed by the committee to prepare a general sur vey of the city sewer system indt- eating where and in what numbers new sewers will be necessary this

 The present outbreak of the dis ease, Dr. Coon said, was undoubted- 1y due to a number of very mild and unrecognized cases of small pox which have been about Bridgeport for some time
 All cases are being removed to either the old isolation hospital or to 1lnglcwood hospital Under the Con- necticut law, the health officers has the power not only of doing as he thinks best with any cases of con- tagieuse disease but also of taking Whatever precautionary measure he deems necessary with anyone whom

R0BBER DEMANDS WEEKLY DUES
 FOR CAMMARA

Nick Agostina, 37. of 1972 Main street, who is alleged to be Bridge ports first installment plan highway man, was arrested this morning on the complaint of Nicholas Cammara, of Sylvan avenue, and is now being held City court tomorrow. Cammara was relieved of $14 while walking In North Washington avenue last night, and his description of the robber ta1-
 According to the police, Gammara rode a bicycle from his home in Syl- van avenue to a North Washington avenue grocery store last night. When he left the store after making sev- era1 purchases, he found that the front tire of his machine had been slashed with a knife.
 Cammara started to walk home pushing the bicycle along with him Upon reaching dark place in the road, he suddenly found himself con- fronted by highwayman who point. ed a knife or revolver at him and ordered him to throw up his hands. The victim lost no time in complying with the order and the robber se- cured $14 in cash from CammaraS pockets. After searching his man, the footpad Is said to have remark
 ''I know you. and I'll see you often- Your dues will be s5 week"
 words of the highwayman. Cammara went to his home, and failed to re- port the affair to the police until this morning. At headquarters. he said that he thought he knew the man who had robbed him. Detectives took up the case, and arrested Agostina on a charge of highway robbery. At the time of his arrest, the alleged high wayman had in his possession a num- Der of bills of the same denomination as those Cammara claims to have lost, and also a large jack-knife. He will be arraigned for trial in the City court tomorrow morning.

7onaorro1O,s Hearing May Disclose Legality Of
 Big Liquor Seizure

$10 a gallon and that if there were gallons in a barrel the cost would come to S4O0. Seventy-one barrels are now stored in the local post office cost of the alcohol seized is worth $28,
 If the alcohol was sold, $50 gal lon could be obtained for it. This would make a barrel worth $1,200, and the actual cost of the liquor now stored at the Federal building is worth ss5,o00. The alcohol was stored in the building at the request of Special Agent Schweitzer
 Considering the entire shipment one value at $25,O0O. This was arrived at by figuring the cost at $5 a gallon; 5 gallons to the barrel. What the cost to the ultimate consumer or the ''vtc- tirn'' might be is another matter. Some estimate it as high as $15o,0o0.
 May Be Resident of Bethel.
 Kirk, to whom the shipment was addressed, in care of the local stor. age company is believed to be of Bethel.
 He resigned five or six weeks ago from the State police. He was at- tached to the motor corps and was examiner of applicants for motor Ve- hfcular operator licenses in the Dan- bury district. His appointment to state police was attributed to closo friendship with Harry Mackenzie. State Prohibition director. Kirk resigned and located in Bridgeport, apparenttg taking over the agency for tho Freshman company of Peekskill, that had been formely held by Cohen.
 Whether or not the present ship meth was within the legal rights Of the permits will be shown. RonaIdo SAIazzoni, and Rudolph Bartholomew, held by the Port Chester police, will be brought here on warrants. Others held in connection with the case, and who will appear before the commits sioner are Edward Deregibus, 67 Hewitt street. a wholesale grocer; E3drnundo Celia, 3S Elias street. a Chauffeur; John Krautter, 1o1 Broad street, a clerk for the railroad, and William J. Bishop, 2918 Fairfield av- enue, a railroad detective.

 Further rumors have 1t that 8 thorough Investigation will be made of shipments covering a period of several months. to both Cohen and Kirk to trace other shfpnen the number of which is claimed to have been large.

COUNTERFEIT
 EPIDEMIC
 SWEEPS J. 5,

Wasl ington, Jan. 10-An epidemic of counterfeiting, involving amateur photographers, is sweeping the United States, it was learned today.
 This activity of "camera fends" is taxing to the utmost the full resources of the United States secret service, ac- cording to w. H. Moran, chief of the service. It is the most widespread in the history of the country.
 The camera, according to Chief Moran. not only revolutionized the "art' of counterfeiting but completely wiped out of existence the old fash toned hand engraving counterfeiter. The secret service now battles with the science of photography, practiced chiefly by amateurs
 A new menace also has been de- tected in an influx of "phoney'' bills from abroad. The production of spurious American money, according to Moran, is generally prevalent in European countries.
 Records of the secret service show that 1925 arrests were made last year. Pennsylvania, the worst state led with 110 arrests, with New York its closest rival. Among the states classed as ''troublesome'' was Massa- chuSetts.

 Vaccinating at Prospect School
 Health doctors have finished vac cinatinr at Jefferson school and are now working at Prospect school. It is likely that Barnum school may bc next as one of the suspects has been a pupil there.
 Dr. R D Fear, director of the Di- vision of Cnnta sS;ous Diseases is ir, charge of the small pox work here. He is being assisted by Drs Clifton Taylor and A NJ. Carr of the Health department
 To date the outbreak of smallpox has not cost the city one penny as it 1t being entirely taken care of by the Department of Health. In other cit les it has been customary to call in special physicians at a cost of about S190 a day and special nurses at S2 5 a day to rare for the patients.
 Fairfield, because of its proximity to Bridgeport, and because certain sections of the town are closely allied to Bridgeport, has been quietly but carefully watching the developm ent of the smallpox scare in Bridgeport. AS result the Fairfield Board of Ed ucation, of which Sheriff Simeon Pease is the head, held a meeting last night
 Compulsory action was not taken, but 1t was formally recommended that all pupils and teachers that have not re- gently been vaccinate ted, submit to the treatment irnm ediately-
 Contrary to general opinion. as far as we have discovered in our town, more persons of foreign descent be- come vaccinated regularly than of other classes
 We have no fear of the epidemic at the County jail and have not con- sidered vaccination necessary as yet tined a few afflicted prisoners so that there could not be an ep1demic-

The present shroud of mystery re- garding the 100 barrels of grain al cohoa seized yesterday by a detail of Prohibition enforcement agents from Washington, headed by Special Agent Schweitzer, aided by the entire force from the local office, will in all like Iihood not be removed until the hear ing scheduled for Wednesday after noon This hearing will be at 2.:30 before United States Commissioner Hugh J. Lavery.
 Consigned to Fred L. Kirk, 1337 Seaview avenue, the location of the storage house operated by the Peo- ple's Ice & Coal company, the alcohol was un1oaded at the local freight yards, and transported to the Federal building. Harry Cohen, 2040 Park avenue, formerly agent for the F'leish- man Industrial Alcohol company, of Peekskill N. Y, declared he had sev- three months ago. Officials of the storage house declared no knowledge of the shipment
 "Our place is a public storage house, where people can store furni- ture molasses, ice cream cones or trip hammers. I seldom visit the place, for we of course have people to at tend to the york; This was the statement of Frank B. Ballard, presi- dent of the company.
 May Be Legal Shipment
 Investigation will show whether the permit said to be Connecticut per
 
 forgery. It is intimated that the shipment may have been legal as far as the F1eishman company was con- cerned. What apparently cast sus- picion on the transaction was the fact that 29 barrels of the fluid was inn mediate1y started. apparently for New York. directly after the arrival of the car. There seemed no reason for such a roundabout way of transport ing legal alcohol from Peekskill, N. Y.. in order to have 1t reach the metropolis.
 Chased Two Trucks
 Prohibition agents gave chase to the two trucks. One eluded them and a second truck was overcome and captured in Port Chester, N. Y. The truck was registered In the name of Sabini brothers 607 Jackson avenue, Bronx, New York. The 2s barrels were brought back to this city, and tdded to the collection in the Fed ..ral building. There are two esti- mates of the value of the shipment.
 An estimate of the cost of the Il barrels of alcohol seized here yes terday was made this morning by a man who requested that his name be withheld.
