HONE VOLTS CAPTOR
 NOW TAKES UP TRAIL
Famous Boston Sleuth Sent Out to Track Down Slayer of Mabelle
 Matheson,

Boston, Jan. 26 UP)-The man whose sleuthing led to the capture of the Lone Wolf" who terrorized the Baby Bay two years ago. today took charge of the Maybelle Matheson murder investigation.
 Inspector James J. Claffin, finger print expert of the Boston police, as the request of District Attorney William J. Foley.
 Simultaneously, authorities an- nounced they had abandoned the theory that Miss Matheson. 1S-year- old West Roxbury mill worker, was slain by maniac. The range of sus- pcion. they said had narrowed to one man, who was being sought.
 Murder of Miss Matheson re- mained today one of the most baf- fling crimes in local history. If the one suspect sought proved to have no knowledge of the staying, police admitted they would be virtually without a clue, despite more than four days of intense Investigation
 Funeral services for the murder ed girl were to be held this after noon at Watermans chapel in Rox- bury. Tonight, the body will be sent to Nova Scotia for burial at Why cocomagh, Iverness county, where the victim formerly lived.

countries would acceed to the right of China or that China would force the return of its own rights. China, Prof. Mcdonald stated, is no longer unaware of its own power. and that fact has considerably changed the whole aspect.
 The Bolshevik influence in China, although it is there, is not tending towards the end which Russia hopes for China is usAng Bolshevik ad- vice for her own game, but is not playing into Russia's hands bit, the speaker said.
 Mexico Wins Note War
 The Mexican situation was briefly explained by the speaker who stat ed that after Mexico had beaten this government in a note war. demand ing possession of it's foreign owned resources, things are now at a stand still. The president has switched his point of view several times and Sec retary of State Kellogg has done likewise, he said.
 Prof. Mcdonald stated that he did not believe that the United States is prepared to enter war for the re- tention of privately owned holdings in Mexico and that he believed that the government had the same view point. Arbitration is expected mo- mentarily in that field, he said.
 At the close of his address, ques- tions were asked by the assemblage during which Queen Marie of Ru- mania came in for her ten minutes. Considerable interest in the subject was evinced by the women present and although Prof. Mcdonald could not state just why the Queen had visited America. several individual opinions were heard in various parts of the hall.

WELD ASKS BETTER
 INSURANCE RATES
(Continued from First Page)

''The water department has h. stalled nearly all of the large sized mains recommended by the Ma | tional Board at the last survey , New building codes have been l adopted. and also an electrical code. The electrical code is based on the National electrical code, and the building code is based on the National Boards recommended code.
 There are a number of ordi- nances governing the storage of hazardous liquids. etc, now in pro- cess of being adopted.
 Tt is my belief that the im- provements above made or which are to be made in the near future will take off enough points so that the city would perhaps get into Class Three. I would therefore ask you to request the National Board of Fire Underwriters to make the new survey of the city this spring. "I would also like to ask that the promulgation of the analytic or Dean schedule be postponed until after this survey is made.
 Yours very truly.
 GARDNER C. WELD,
 Mayor" The reply received today follows: Hon. Gardner C. Weld, Mayor, New Britain, Conn.
 Dear Sir: ..
 Your favor of the 24th re- questing a re-examination of New Britain as you feel that the city is entitled to a better grading than it now enjoys. was duly received.
 I've note the changes which the city has made since the 1923 re- port of the National Board was is sued. You, of course. are aware that New Britain has grown consid- erably within the past four years and some of the additions to your fire fighting facilities without doubt are required to take care of this growth. Also there are other items which must be considered in the HSlll Ol llldlHltItllCt OI itpldCt- ment.
 "Ne would further call your at tention to the fact that a full effect of the adoption of a building code or electrical ordinance will not be felt immediately and for this req son only partial credit for their en- actment can be given until the laws have been in force for a year at least.
 ''We are immediately communi- eating with the National Board and hope that a corps of engineers can arrange to make an examination of the city at an early date. We will push this examination in every way at our command.
 "R espectfully yours.
