Washington. March 16.-Persons charged with violating the Volstoad act can be tried In state courts, the supreme court declared today in substance, in dismissing for want of Jurisdiction case brought from Humboldt county, California, by A. Brambini and Isadore Maffia.

MAYOR TO FILE VETO ON
 LINE ON STANLEY STREET
Disapproved of Building Restriction Affecting Four Property Owners
 and Costing City $2,150

The first veto message to be sub mitted to the common council fin several months will go to that body for action at Wednesday evenings meeting, Mayor A. M. Paonessa having disapproved the movement to change 8 building line on the east side of Stanley street from Allen street to property of W. J. Long.
 The present building line Is 20 feet. At the request of owners of adjoining properties, the board of public works recommended a 50 foot building line last year and the common council accepted the recom- mendation, passing it along to the board of compensation and assess ment for appraisal of damages and benefits. That board found dam ages of $2,400 and benegts of $25O, making the net cost to the city S2.150 If the change Is made. Mayor Paonessa feels the benefits accruing from the change do not warrant an expenditure of that amount of money since the strip in- volved is very short, only four property owners being concerned, and tho benefits appear to be but $250.
 Mayor Paonessa will ask the council to reject the report of the board of compensation and assess ment and refer the matter of building line change back to the public works board for reconsidera- ton.

WARREN AGAIN REJECTED IN SENATE: DEBATE IN UPPER HOUSE WAKES HOT
 AS SENATOR'S LINE UP FOR CONTEST
VICTIM OF FIRE NOT
 FULLY IDENTIFIED Man Killed in Momauguin Cottage May Be
 Owners Son

New Haven, March 16.--A body, believed to be that of Leonard Dean, who was trapped in the burning cot tage Of his parents, at Momauguin early yesterday was found today in the cellar, buried under charred ma- terial. Across the body were the fragments of a piano which had fall en from the main floor as the tim bers caved in.
 Dean worked In Westheld, Mass, and was spending the weekend at the cottage, his parents, Mir. and Mrs. C. R. Dean, being in Florida for the winter. A brother of Leon- ard, who was at first thought to be the one missing in the fire, is also in the south with his parents
 The fire In the Dean cottage was discovered by a neighbor who gave the alarm to the East Haven fire apparatus. The cottage was on the shore front and was valued at about $5,000. Dean and others were seen at. the cottage on Saturday and the supposition was that as Dean could not be found after the fire that he had been in the cottage when the fire broke out. It was known that an oil stove was used to heat the cottage Saturday but there are only theories to account for the blaze.
 Medical Examiner Holbrook of East Haven said that he had viewed the charred body found in the ruins of the cottage but he had not def- nitely declared that the victim was Leonard Dean.
 Dr. Holbrook said that if the body had been found somewhere else he would have declared identity was unknown, but the fact that young Dean was missing raised the pre- sumption that it was Deans body. He said that in interviewing neigh bors he had found that young Dean was at a party in house about an eighth mile away and left there at 1G45 D. rl., to go home. It was un- deTstood that he intended to leave for Westf1eld, Mass About 12:45 Sunday morning. Dr. Holbrook said neighbors heard an automobile drive up to the Dean cottage and several men got out and went in. The auto mobile and men left about 30 min- utes later. It was 4:10 a. III. when the firemen got the alarm.
 Dr. Holbrook said that evidence was that Dean had considerable money and a gold watch Saturday night.
 Asked as to what his finding would be Dr. Holbrook said he would sumbit the evidence he had to Coroner Mix. He had no opinion to give at this time.

QUESTION PERMITS
State Prohibition Director Thinks Some Doctors Give Liquor Pre- scriptlons To Thirsty.

Hartford, March 16.-The issuing of liquor prescriptions to patients who were thirsty rather than i'll has caused trouble for several Con- necticut doctors in recent months, Federal Prohibition Director Frank T. Putney said today. MT. Putney's statement revealed that from time to time federal agents make inquiry to find out whether patients secur- ing liquor on prescription really have been Ill.
 Ordinarily the doctors word is accepted. said Mr. Putney. But if the records kept by druggists reveal that a doctor has been rather gen. erous with prescriptions, inquiry is made. Such investigations have resulted in the revocation of liquor prescriptions permits held by several doctors.
