Strong Criticism

Paris. Dec. 29.-Count De la yaulx, vice-president of the Aero Club of France, in the course of an interview printed in this mornings Paris news papers, is quoted as severely criticiz- ing the conditions under which the lost airship Dixmude was sent out on her ill-fated cruise.
 -Four leading ports were indispen- sable for the Dlxmudc on the Mediterranean," the interview says, two of them in Northern Africa and two in Southern France. It was asking too much for the air liner to accom- plish more than is demanded of sea- going ships which can always make some port running before storm.
 ''l have long considered the role of the dirigible in land warfare as a thing of the past, but they are indis- pensablc in operations on the high seas. However, So long us they are em- ployed as in the case Of the Dixmudc catastrophes are inevitable in spite Of thesuperb qualities of the ships and the science and courage of their crews"

WIFE IN IGNORANCE .OF HUSBANDS DEATH Has Not Yet Been Told of Finding
 DiXmude Commanders Body MYSTERY STILL UNSOLYED
Belief Now is That Sudden Explosion May Have Wrecked Giant DirigibIe Paper Found Give No Clue to Cause of Disaster.
3y The Associated Press,

By The Associated Press
 Paris, Dec. 29.-Ecforts to clear the mystery of the fate of the dirigible Dixmude had yielded no further re- suits up to this morning, but it was hoped that Captain Joubert, the French naval attache in Rome, who was due in Sciacca today would find in the pockets of Lieut.. Grenadan pa- pers that would explain the disaster.
 At present, everyone is convinced that the entire crew of 50 men perish ed and that the ship herself was de- stroyed.
 One point which is puzzling marine department officials is the fact that none of the pigeons which the Dix nude carried has returned.
 The news of the discovery of the body of Lieut.. Grenadan off Sciacca is being withheld from his wife who IS about to become a mother. The com manders father, a retired field officer wounded in the war, bore the shock stoically

Milk for merly sent here from herds not test cd or which is not pasteurized will be dispatched to other parts of the state hereafter, the health depart rIient advises.

Bonds of $lOO Fixed in Each Case to Insure Their Appearance in Police Court Monday Morning
Square Copper Tank Con- taining Supply Found on Second Floor - Woman Creates Scene at Head quarters.

Ten, frequenters and the proprietor of former saloon at 4s Grove street were arrested this afternoon and an unusually clever arrangement for supplying the booze was unearthed by the police department in one of the most sensational raids the de- pertinent has conducted since the passage of the Nolstead act.
 The proprietor is Stanislaw Ogon- owski of A9 Grove street and the fre- quenters are Belanta kulis, A Grove street; Adam Duszak. 52 Orange street; Adam Powesik, 57 Sexton street; Charles Kordik, 3l Lyman street; Tony kohinowsizy, 107 Gold street; Frank Perkiski, 102 Gold street; Peter Oleswyz, A Orange street; Adam Roby. TO Broad street; Stanislaw Psimentuski. so Horace street and Dominick Telwonick of orange street. Dominick moved re contly and his street number has not yet been ascertained.
 Supply Carefully Guarded
 The place has been raided several times before but the police never were able to locate any liquor to amount to anything. Acting Detec- tive Patrick o'AIara has been wateh- ing the place for some time. The establishment has been maintained as grocery store When the police would enter in former raids they would ind three locked doors through which they would be forced 10 make their way. In the time it took them to enter, the booze, which was kept in glass near the sink, would have been poured out and the water turned on. thus destroying it.
 This morning shortly after court, Detective O'Alara and Detective Thomas l. Fccncy went to the Grove street address and made another search, finally discovering the source of supply Without letting the pro- prictor know they had learned where the liquor was kept, Policeman Fecney went outside and telephoned the police station for more help.

Armored Cruiser Roch- ester To Remain Until All Disturbances There AndIn Southern Mexico Are Ended
Will Be Within Easy Range Of Zone of HOstilities Be- tween ObregOn and De La Huerta Factions.

Washington. Dec. 2s.-The armored cruiser Rochester, flagship of, the United States special service squad- ron in Central and South American waters, has been sent to Port of Anna pala, Honduras, and will remain in that vicinity until the present dis turbances in Honduras and southern Mexico have quieted.
 Precautionary Measure.
 The step is explained as a preeau- tionary measure against any harm to American life or property in either of the two countries now torn by in- ternal warfare. The Rochester is in command of Rear Admiral John Day. ton, who is commandes of the south- ern cruiser squadron. She has aboard a full complement of marines, but it Is understood none of the ships per- sonnel will be landed except in case of emergency threatening American interests.
 Near to Mexico.
 From the Honduran port to which she has been ordered. the cruiser will be within easy reach of the southern Mexican ports wheree;he De La Hu- erta revolution is reported to have gained headway.
 The exact situation in Honduras is not known here, but such dispatches as have come through the censorship indicate serious crisis. Armed dis turbances accompanied the recent presidential campaign in that conn- try and band Of Hondnran troops is said to have crossed. into Nicaragua and committed depredations. TheA American minister al the Honduran capital has heen instructed to esprnS the displeasurc et the American Eov- ernment at these developments.

Facts Coincide

The explosion theory coincides with a story told by observers on the Si- lieutenant's body was found, who re- ported that they saw a bright gleam lin the sky out at sea on the morning Of December 26. They observed this light at 2:3O o'clock. and it was found that Lieutenant Grenahan's watch had stopped at just that hour.
 One theory is that the gondola con- taining the captains cabin and chart room may have become detached from the airship and fallen into the sea while the dirigible herself was blown onward.

Explosion Thcor, Advanced

Paris, Dec. 29.--Indications that q sudden explosion may have destroyed the French airship Dixmude were found today in reports from Sicily, off which island the body of Lieuten- ant Qrenadan, her commander. was picked up yesterday in the Mediter- ranean.
 Examination of the body failed to show any long book or documents, throwing light on the dirigible's fate, but the fact that Lieutenant Grena- dan had not possessed himself of the airship's papers was thought in ofii- cial circles 10 show he had not felt there was any immediate danger and that his plunge into the sea had come virtually without warning.
