CAROLS. MORGANATIC
 WIFE LOSES LAWSUIT
French Court Declines to Pass on Rumanians'
 Dispute

Paris, Dec. 1 R-Zizi Lambrino has lost her court fight against for mer Crown Prince Carol of Rumania seeking to establish the status of the six-year-o son Mircea, born of their morganatic marriage. The French court which heard the case two weeks ago ruled today that it was incompetent to pass on the dis pute between these two Rumanians and assessed the costs against Madame Lambrino.
 zizi Lambrino sued to establish the right of Mircea to the name of Hohenzollern. At the same time she demanded that Carol pay the bursar of the Lycee Michelet for the boys education, and that she be awarded ten million francs damages.
 In support of the claim, her at- 'torney asserted that Mircea was born before the decree annulling their marriage became effective. Carols attorney alleged that Mircea. from a strict legal standpoint. could not be considered born within 800 days from the issuance of the ullity decree and was therefore born out of wedlock.
 He declared also that Zizi was re- ceiving 10000 French francs an- nually. which would go to Mircea in event of her death. and that the Hohenzollerns of Rumania had winked at her infraction of signed convention with the Bank of Ru- mania in which she engaged not to bother the royal family under pen alty of losing her whole fortune of 2,200,000 francs.
 After annulment of his marriage to Zizi, Carol married Princess Helen of Greece, daughter of the late King Constantine. Their son, Michael. was named Rumanian heir apparent last January when Carols abdication as Crown Prince was le- galized by the Rumanian parliament following his flight with Mime. Magdo Lupesco. daughter of a mer- chant of Jassy.

SIMPSONS DEMAND FOR M|STR|AL REFUSED BY COURT AND LAWYERS
 BEGIN FINAL ARGUMENTS IN CASE
Suggestion Made to
 Have Marines Take
 Up Enforcement Job

Washington, Dec. 1 R-The marines are doing such a good job at guarding the mails that they are now suggested as the men to dry up the country.
 President Coolidge has been requested in resolution adopted here by the International Re- form Federation to Suggest" such a course to Secretary Mel lon. Employment of the navy to stop the rum flow from the high seas was urged.
 The action was taken after Representative Blanton. demo- crat, had remarked briefly on the efficiency of the marines.
 lover in the post office" he said, there is man walking up and down who means buei- ness. He is a marine and is guarding the mails. If the marines, the army and the navy were put to cleaning up boot leggers and enforcing prohibition we would have the entire coun- try dry in short order"

RObS BUS DRIVER
 AT POINT 0F GUN HighEayman Gets @ From
 North Burritt St. Line WORKS AT END OF ROUTE

Charles Goudreault, Operator of
 Machine, says Stranger Pressed
 Revolver Against His Body-Po-
 lice Scour Neighborhood in Vain.
 The second holdup at the point of a revolver in this city in two days was reported to the police at 10:20 last night, Charles Goudreault of 116 Smith street. driver of q Wagner bus on the North Burritt street line. be- ing relieved of approximately $30 as he was turning his bus around at the end of the line on North Burritt street, corner of Osgood avenue. De- tective Sergeant George c. Ellinger, Sergeant P. J. O'Mara, Officer G. w. Hellberg and Supernumerary Officer Michael Brophy secured the north western section of the city for half an hour after Lieutenant Samuel Bamforth received word of the hold up, but no trace of the bandit was found. Today. an investigation was being made but no arrests resulted.
 Signals to Halt Bus.
 According to Goudreault, he saw tall man, apparently about 35 or 40 years of age, signal to board the bus, and he opened the front door, to admit him. There were no pas sengers aboard at the time. Without making any effort to hide his fea- lures, the man put a revolver against Goudrealut's stomach and or dered: Come across with the dough-" The change carriers near the drivers seat were filled and the bandit emptied them, but was not satisfied with the amount. Come on, you've got some more on you," he said, and Goudrealut gave him the money he had in his pockets, where upon the gunman backed out. and disappeared in the darkness.
 Believe Auto Was Nearby
 Goudreault noted that the man was wearing a light colored hat and had no overcoat. The police be- lieve he had an automobile nearby and probably left his overcoat in it, so that he would not be hampered in the gunplay and also that he might confuse the police in their search, as he would be reported as being without an overcoat. He probably drove to Pennington or circled about the northwestern sec ton and made his way back into the center of the city with other traffic, the police believe. That he was walking is doubted. although there is the possibility that he lives in the vicinity of the end of the bus line, and was safely in bed be- fore the police started seeking his trail.
 May Be Theater Robber
 That the gunman was one of the pair who held up Manager Carlyle G. Barrett of the Capitol theater Monday morning and took $257 is possible, the police said. today, al though they are inclined to doubt that the risk of arrest would be taken so soon after the theater hold ups especially in view of the cer- tainty that comparatively small amount of money would be found in a bus. It is possible. the police say, that someone in need of money was prompted to hold up the bus driver by the apparent success with which the theater robbery was staged.

 Informed
A marine guard has been assign

A marine guard has been assign cd to protect U. s. mails in New Britain, according to a notice re- ccived today by Postmaster H. E. Erwin. Who the guard is or when he will come to New Britain has not been stated. MT. Erwin said he had no further information beyond the brief notice that the local post office had been assigned a marine guard.
 The marine probably will be as- signed to ride on mail trucks back and forth between the railroad sta tion and the post office. although the local post office has not yet been advised as to his specific duties here.
 Postmaster Erwin reports that he has received a limited supply of White Plains two cent stamps which are available now.

Mobile, Ala, Dec. P-The local Tropical Radio company station an nounced at 11:30 a. m.. today. that the French rum runner Arsene J.. which ran off with two prohibition officers, had not been retaken as re- ported from New Orleans.

 Mobile. Ala, Dec. l F-Assistant Prohibition Administrator J. B. Matthews of New Orleans and 8 chief motor machinist mate from 8 patrolboat of the Biloxi, Miss. base have been Kidnapped by French auxiliary rum runner, according to . radio message received here to- day. The coast guard cutter Talla- poosa has gone in pursuit of the rum runner and the two men. The prohibition officer and guard were left on board the rum runner to watch the vessel while patrolboat went after more fuel.
 The radio despatch gave the fol- lowing details of the capture of the prohibition officer and guard:
 Details of Capture
 Two patrolboats from Base IS at Biloxi, Miss, on Monday last took in tow the French rum schooner Aresene J., loaded with liquor, 65 miles off Southwest Pass. Mississippi river. They started to tow the schooner to the Mississippi river quarantine station. but on account of strong winds the fuel was ex- hausted. Base Commander Edmonds from Biloxi took the, two patrolboats and went to Southwest Pass for fuel. Assistant Prohibition Administrator J. B. Matthews of New Orleans and a chief motor machinist mate, we'll armed, were left on board the rum schooner as guard to hold her un- til the return of the patrolboats.
 No Trace Is Found
 On the return of Base Command CT Edmonds to the place where he had left the guarded schooner. he found that the rum runner had de- parted with his guard and prohibi- tion officer. The facts were com- municated to the coast guard cut ter Tallapoosa Tuesday morning and the cutter proceeded to sea at full speed and has secured the gulf for the kidnapped men, but has not found any trace of the schooner.
 It is possible, official, said. that the schooner will take the officer and guard to Nassau or some other foreign port. As all this happened outside of the three-mile limit, the master of the schooner may have considered it within his rights. and this may cause serious complica- tions, 1t was pointed out.
 The Tallapoosa today was con- tinuing her search for the kidnap- ing rum schooner.
