ILLINOIS PROHIBITION
ENFORCER INDICTED

The sequel to ChieagO's ST.
100000 sacramental wine scan
dial, is indictment by the federal >
grand jury of Percy Owen, FORM
er state dry director. on charge
of conspiracy. Eighty persons
swear they paid Owen and his
nine cO-defendants for immunity.
Owens and the others deny it.
This is another of a long list of
federal and state prohibition en-
fOrcement officers. who have been
indicted and convicted of black
mail and graft in the enforce
ment of the prohibition laws. Ev-
en- the national head of the An
ii Saloon Leaue was convicted
and imprisoned for accepting
money to drop prosecutions and
to protect favOrite bOOtleggers,
couple of years ago, and served
time in Sing Sing.
1t is a common thing for these
men to take money for prOsecu-
tiOns and many of them retire
with a fortune made from black
mail.

MAYOR AWAITS ACTION
 ON NORTH END SEWER
Public Works Dept. Must Dig Up Money From Unknown Source
 For Improvement

Mayor Weld is today awaiting a report from City Engineer J. D. Williams on the probable cost. of Improvements in the storm water sewer system on Broad street. The mayor is hopeful the city will see its way clear to make whatever ex- penditure is required, he said today.
 This work was not contem plated when the budget of the board of public works was prepared in Feb ruary and if it is to be done this year the department is faced with the necessity of curtailing elsewhere or exceeding it's appropriation.
 Heavy rains in recent weeks have flooded streets and cellars in the area now served by the present Broad street main sewer line, which the public works department finds is greatly overtaxed during storms.
 Engineer Williams will meet Mayor Weld prior to tomorrow nights meeting of the board of pub lie works to explain his plan and hear the mayors wishes in the mat fer

BOY HERO'S NAME
 ON VAR MEMORIAL
Manning Enlisted as Navy Ap-
 prentice at Age Of 12

In their compilation of Spanish American War honor roll for in- scription on the monument soon to be placed in Willow Brook park, Cl. Walter ". Bullen and Theodore Johnson have learned of a former New Britain man who enlisted in the navy as an apprentice boy, at the age of 12 years, and who was discharged at the end of the World War with the ranks of commander.
 He is James w, Manning, the son of ConstableJames w. Manning, and his name will be inscribed along with nearly 400 other New Britain men who went forth in 1898. The rolls are made up entirely of vol unteers since there was no con- scription act invoked in the war with Spain. Manning was one of the youngest members of Dewey's fleet. His rise in the navy was marked by rapid promotion and during the World War he was ele- vated to the rank of commander. He is now retired to private life, and is living in San Francisco, Cal.
 Alderman William H. Judd, chairman of the memorial commit tee, is hopeful of having plans and specifications so that bid may be ad- vertise6 for by September 1. The actual construction is expected to take about two months. The alder man is anxious to have the memo rial dedicated this year to keep promise made 10 the war veterans at the time his committee was suc- cessful in having an appropriation made for the work.
