Object to Removal of
 AllingtOWn HOspital

National Vice Commander Towne of Maine led the New England American Legion conference in voic- ing it's opposition to the discontin- uance of Allingtown hospital at the meeting at the Hotel Bond in Hart ford yesterday afternoon. A resolu- tion offered by Secretary Harry C.. Jackson of New Britain urged the disqualification committee now in session in the national congress to recommend an appropriation for the purchase of this hospital for the reason that the -servicemen them- selves confined there with tuberculo- sis wished to remain where they were. The resolution was ordered forwarded to Washington immedi- ately after the meeting.
 It was also voted to have a mem Der of the New England council speak to the next conference of the organization this spring. The rest of the afternoon was taken up in the frank discussion of the ex-service- mems problems.

Man Found Dead May Not
 Have Been Train Victim

Bridgeport, Jan. fl Dominic Depaulo, 10, of Norwalk, may not have been run down by train on the New York, New, Haven X Hart ford tracks in NoWalk on January II, when he was found fatally in- jured and died shortly afterwards of a fractured skull
 Coroner John J. Phelan found. through testimony, that the only blood spot found near the point of the accident was seven feet remov- ed from the tracks. There was no blood spot on the engine of the train, 1t was shown. This. the cor oner finds today In his finding of accidental death gives rise to the belief that the boy slipped and fell upon the ice when he observed the nearness of the train or that the suction of the train may have drawn him against it and then flung him to the spot where he was found.

ADMINISTRATION
 IS CRITICIZED
(Continued from First Pase)

lTOtll lISt dS6) Nicaraguan message can but serve to stimulate the propaganda which has the definite purpose of bringing about intervention.
 ''The government of Mexico seems to be arraigned for recognizing Sa- casa as president of Nicaragua in- stead of Diaz, and for allowing arms and munitions to be furnished the former. but Mexico has the same right to recognize and countenance the assistance of Sacasa as the United States to recognize and countenance the assistance of Diaz.
 Tt does not seem to me that any great weight should be attached to Secretary Kellogg's memorandum rela tive to bolshevik influences ra- diating from Mexico. Nothing is easier nowadays than to attach the bolshevill label to any activity which may displease us, or create appre- hension."
 LaFollettc's Attack.
 Senator LaFollette, republican, Wisconsin, in his first speech of the session, said he regarded the action of our government in Nicaragua as unjustified and unconscionable."
 MT. LaFollette attacked the ac- tion of Secretary Kellogg in present. ing to the senate foreign relations committee a document purporting to show that Mexico is the base of Bolshevist propaganda in the western hemisphere aimed at the Imperial istic United States"
 Pointing out that the Kellogs statement was the only part of the proceedings of the foreign relations committee last Wednesday, given to the public, the senator said the only inference was that he wanted 1t to go to the country as justification for the administration policy in Central America.

SAYS WIFE WON'T MEND
 HOLES IN HIS POCKETS
Husband, Arrested for Disturbance Swings Mean Tongue at Police
 Court Session.

Alex Caris, aged 32, of 245 Broad street, told Judge Alling in police court this morning that Mrs. Caris neglects him to the extent of failure to mend holes in his pockets, and as a result he cannot carry money where he believes every man should reasonably expect to have it. He ex- hibited the holes in his pockets.
 Last evening, Mrs. Carls con- plained to the police that her hus- band chased her from their home and locked the doors so that she could not re-enter. Detective Ser geant Ellinger and Officer Malona found conditions as Mrs. Caris de- scribed and on her complaint they made the arrest charging Caris with breach of the peace.
 After Mrs. Caris had testified that she does not receive enough money to maintain the household and her husband drinks heavily, Caris took the stand and entered a general denial. He had been drinking "a little yesterday, but his wife walked out of the house of her own accord, and the reason he locked the doors was that he wanted to rest without being disturbed.
 He exhibited bank book and checks 10 prove that he supports his family, but Judge filling remarked that he has been borrowing money quite regularly. Caris replied that he had obligations to meet on his real estate and in his pool parlor. Judge filling continued the case until March 31, on probation.

New York, Jan. 14 P>-The stock market experienced sinking spell this afternoon when call money was marked up from 4 to 4i2 per cent. The higher rate followed the call ing of about s15,o0o,000 in loans, but was generally regarded as tenn porary. Early declines ran from I peared to be largely of professional origin and presumably inspired, in part by the failure of operators for the rise to attract a public follow ing.
 The chief business developments of the day were the announcement of plans for gigantic northwest railroad merger, advances in Penn- sylvania crude and copper wire prices and increasing inquiries for steel products, all of which were bullish in character.
 Erratic fluctuations continued in Commercial Solvents B, which sold down to 244a aft-r having estab- lished a record high at 255 yester- day. U. s. Cast Iron pipe sold down 4 points, South Porto Rican sugar 3 and Woolworth. Kinney Company, Case Threshing, Atlansic Coast Line and several others points or more.

In the stock market, how ever, investors were content to al- low prices to dip rather than to reach up and bid for stocks. The market steadied during the fourth hour, when recovering m several is- sues ran from 1 to po,nts. Tobac- co products was in brisk demand during the afternoon.
 Stock prices moved within mar row and irregular limits at the opening of today's market. DuPont opened a point lower and fraction al recessions took place in Bald win. Studebaker, L. S. Steel com mon and several other popular in- dustrials. Oils again changed hands III ldi Se NoIuIile, "llH lHe 1lall tendency in that group upward. Commercial Solvents E broke 8 points on the first sale. Colorado & Southern opened 1 1-2 points high CT on buying presumably influenced by the announcement of plans for the new Northwestern railroad merger.
 A spirited advance in Lehigh Valley common which crossed no to a new high record featured the early trading, recent accumulation of this stock being credited to New York Central and Delaware & Hudson interests. An advance in Pennsylvania Crude prices stimu- lated activity in the oil group. One block of 10,5 shares of Ameri- can Druggist Syndicate changed hands at II 1-4, unchanged from the previous quotation.
