STOWAWAY IN DANCER
 OF BEING DEP0RTED
Paid Sailor $500 to Allow Him to Hide on
 Ship

Taken into custody for entering this country three years ago as a stowaway, Humbert Miano of 303 Main street was given a hearing yesterday afternoon In the office ot Attorney Harry Ginsburg. Inspector William H. Clark Of the depart ment of immigration conducted the hearing and he will report back to Washington. The decision as to whether Miano may remain in this country or whether he will be de- ported rests with the secretary of labor.
 It was brought out in the course of the hearing that Miano paid a sailor the equivalent of nearly $500 in American money for allowing him to stow away on 8 vesse! which left an Italian port. The identity of the sailor has not been ascertained. Miano landed at the port of New York and soon after came to this city. where he has lived peaceably and where he has worked industriously, according to the testimony of several character witnesses who appeared for him.
 It was testified by these wit nesses that in their belief Miano would make good citizen. All testimony was in his favor, as far as his character was concerned. Attorney Ginsburg was his counsel.
 Miano was taken into custody about six weeks ago and 1t is be. lieved that someone communicated with the federal authorities re- garding the man.
 The case of Frank Milo, also charged with being an illegal resi- dent of this country. was continued until further notice by Inspector Clark, when Albert "A. Greenbers, attorney for Milo. reported that the man is i'll with an attack Of acute appendicitis. He is out in bonds of $500.
 Milo has been a resident of this country for about four years. He shipped from Italy as seaman and it is alleged that he deserted ship at New York, later finding his way to this city where he has been liv- ing since. He was taken into GUS tody about a month ago by federal authorities.

Say He Keeps Roads Best of Any State During
 Winter

State House, Hartford, Feb. g P) The Farmers association today commended State Highway Commis- sioner Macdonald for the "best set of roads of any state in the Union during the winter months"

 Commissioner Macdonald explain ed a classification of state roads on which he has been working for some time.
 Under the classification the road would be designated as A, B. C. or D class highways. The A or termin- al highways which can be built at approximately s65,000 a mile would sustain 2S,o00 pound vehicle. The other classes would cost as follows:
 B roads or intermediate roads ap- proximstely SS5,000 a mile to sus- tain 22,000 pounds; c, or medium. s2S,000 to sustain 16,000 pounds and D. or light traffic, s20,0O0 to sustain 12,000 pounds.
 Asked about some of the bills be- fore the legislature which concern state highways the commissioner said that he was neither opposed nor in favor of any of these bills" |" but would give his honest opinion on all such bills and also all infor- nation and facts which he had in his possession that the association or any committee desired.

WORLD COURT FIGHT IS
 OYER AND U. s. IS OUT
Three Foreign Powers Reply to U. s. Reservation Request As Senate
 Takes Up Matter

Washington, Feb. g R1The long fight over American membership in the world court apparently has come to an end. with the United States standing definitely outside the tri- bunal.
 Three foreign governments who agreed at Geneva to ask for modi- flcation of the senate reservations to the court protocol have advised the state department officially of their decision. President Coolidge has an- nounced that if the reservations were not accepted without change he would not reopen the subject. One of the formal notifications came from Great Britain, but what
 other nations have replied to the American overture remains undis- closed. State department officials
 would not even indicate today what lines were followed in the communi-
 cations. nor confirm that they con- stituted rejections.
 Receipt Of the notes from abroad was made known today at a time when the senate was refusing, on
 the ground that it was unnecessary, to take up resolution proposing
 that the senate's ratification of the court protocol be rescinded.

LEGAL GUNS TURNED
 UPON MILLER TODAY
His Part in Alleged Con.
 spiracy With Daugh- . erty Outlined to Court

Federal Court. New York. Feb. R-The government turned its le. gal guns on Thomas w. Miller, for mer alien property custodian, today at the trial of Miller and Harry M. Daugherty, former attorney general.
 Most of the morning was spent in an attempt to show how some of the Liberty bonds Richard Nler- ton. German metal magnate. gave John T. King, one-time national re- publican committeeman from Con- necticut. had turned up later in the Midland National bank at Washing ton Courthouse, Ohio, of which Daugherty's brother, Nal S. Daugh- erty, Is president.
 Then the broadside on Miller be- gan. After calling witness who identified government transportation vouchers showing Miller travelling to Philadelphia, Feb. 5, 1923, the government called Miss Virginia Mullen, a clerk in the Philadelphia federal reserve bank. She identified an application for exchange of bonds made by Vincent A. Carroll, former alien property stodian bu- reau attorney, on that day.
 The application showed that two $10,000 bonds - serial numbers AOoO432O1 and BOOo4S2O2-were ex- changed for Carroll, he taking twenty bonds of s1,O0O denomina- tion in their stead.
 A witness was then called to show that transportation vouchers from Philadelphia to Wilmington. Del, were issued to Miller for the same day.
 Then Detber Gallagher, cashier for Laird. Dissel and Necns, Will mington brokerage and banking house, was called. He testified that fourteen of the S1,OOO bonds Car roll exchanged at the Philadelphia federal reserve bank were deposited Tor. He did not know who depos- ited them.
 The mysterious disappearance of original records of the exchange of two s10,000 for twenty sl 1000 Lib erty bonds was told of by Charles Herman. employe of the Philadel- phia federal reserve bank. He said a woman representing herself as an investigator for the department of justice asked for copy of the ap- z plication made by Carroll. After her departure, the original could not be found, he said.

Sablotsky to Quiz Leapitt
 on Curtin Salary Increase
Councilman Says Building Board Chairman Misled Committee in Lauding g Electrical Inspector.

When Chairman A. P. Leavitt of the building commission appears be- fore the salary committee of the common council to have the wages of plumbing and electrical inspectors adjusted he will be confronted with a charge by Councilman Samuel Sab lotsky that he misled the salary committee last month.
 Sablotsky hinges his claim on Lea vitt's action during the Curtin case. C. J. Curtin, electrical inspector, was retired from office Monday night when Leavitt broke tie vote, there by busting the inspector.
 Last month Chairman Leavitt ap- peared before the council committee and urged that the salary of Curtin be increased. According to the sixth ward councilman, Leavitt laid great stress upon the abilities and qualifications of Curtin and pro- nounced him an efficient inspector and an excellent man for the job. Sablotsky is certain, he declared, to- day. Leavitt's appeal moved the com- mittee to vote favorable action. The councilman was present at the build ing commission meeting when Cur tins requested resignation was offer ed, and he inquired of Leavitt as to whether his viewpoint on Curtin S efficiency had been changed. Lea vitts answer was: II won't go back on what l said before the commit. tee. MT. Curtin is an efficient in- spector and a fine man for the job.'
 Discussing the case today, Coun- cilman Sablotsky said: "I talked this matter over with Mir. Leavitt, asking him if he didn't think a man was entitled to hearing before be- ing dropped from a city job. He told me he had received complaints con- tinually during the past six months and that Curtin had been called into his office and warned from time to time. I intend to ask Mir Leavitt why he did not bring this condition before the salary commit tee, if it is the truth If such was the condition, Mir. Leavitt deliber- ately misled the committee by pre-. senting a different face and repre- senting Curtin as an ideal man for (Continued on Page 17)

Chief Hart, Detective Sergeant Me Cue, Sergeant O'Mara and Officer Feeney, and as sincerely as the chairman wishes the men to receive the money, he felt it would be bad precedent to establish.
 Chief Hart reported that Mr. Loomis called him to his office and showed him four envelopes contain ing S75 each, which he wished to give as present to the chief and the other officers. The chief told him he would prefer to have Chair man Chamberlain consulted and if there was no objection on the part Of the board members. the money would be gratefully received. The reward received by Mir. Loomis was $500. He gave s100 to two private citizens who assisted in bringing about the arrest of Aaronson, ex- convict. and had $500 left after the S100 donation to the pension fund. would be we'll to bear in mind that If the four officers mentioned were not on duty when MT. Loomis re- quested Aaronsons arrest, others would have responded. He meant this not as reflection on the men in question, but merely to point out that the call was in line with their duty. Chairman Chamberlain said the police are called on freuuently to give service to persons who are not in position to give rewards, and if the offer is accepted, the impress sion might gain circulation that special service is given where re- wards are forthcoming.
 Chief Hart said he explained the situation to the officers mentioned and their feeling was that if Mir. Loomis' gift could be accepted with
