25 cents after having gone in with 50 cents. He told the police he bought drinks but was refused a bottle. On another occasion Ro- manczyk met Hywinak in front of 24 Clark street and asked him for a drink.
 Hywinak told him he could not sell him any drink as the ''cops" were watching on top of the hill. according to Officer Stadler. AL though he has had several warrants for the tenement, he had never been able to get near enough to it to make raid until February ?. Prosecuting Attorney Woods called Interpreter John Partyka to testify whether or not Officer Feeney's in- depreciation of Mrs. Hywinak's warning about spilling the liquor was correct. MT. Partyka said it was correct.
 Officers Cosgrove and Lyon testi- fled to their part in the raid. At torney McDonough asked the former i! Romanczyk had been rebuked in police court in connection with a case in which he testified as a po- lice agent" Prosecuting Attorney Woods objected, saying it is an un- fair question. Judge Hungerford sustained the objection.
 Hywinak testified that he is en-
 ployed in a bakery from ' or p. m. to 4 in the morning for s19 week.
 He does not sell liquor. About two months ago Officer Feeney appreciated the warning and dis continued selling. Romanczyk tried to buy liquod in the tenement but Hywinak would not accommodate ] him because he knew he was "a stool pigeon" Until he was aroused from sleep by the struggle between Offi- cer Feeney and Mrs. Hywinak and her mother the day of the raid. he had not known there was any liquor in his tenement
 Mrs. Hywinak testified that her ! father was having his evening meal and had a drink of whiskey on the table when the police came. She called, to her mother to onnn the rear door to admit Officers, Stadler and Cosgrove. That was what Officer , Feeney heard instead of cry of alarm as he testified, she said. The rear door does not close tightly un- i less it is bolted. Her mother caught sight of Officer Lyons brass but tons and became alarmed because of a previous conviction of MT. and Mrs. Hywinak.
 | There was no struggle, her mother merely picking of the glas of liquor her husband was about to drink and spilling it. Relative to the testimony that men of drinking habits frequent her tenement, Mrs. Hywinak said a few of those men have called for liquor but they have not been served since she and her husband were con- vcted some time ago.
 Prosecuting Attorney Woods said the defense counsel has been quite successful in convicting his clients. Attorney McDonough replied that An officer rushed in and upset the entire tenement as he does in every raid" and but for the fact that Mr. and Mrs. Hywinak have been con- victed before, the state could not hope to convict them on the meagre evidence produced.
 Judge Hungerford remarked that finding of guilty will make the third conviction for both, which he hesitates to impose on woman.
 "I prefer to have the superior court do so," he said and he bound husband and wife over to the March term Of superior court in bonds of S1 1,000 each.

DRIVE AGAINST "STICKERS"
 ON WINDOWS IS PLANNED
Councilman Sablotsky Win Present Resolution to Prevent Further
 Window Space Poaching.

At the suggestion of merchants do- ing business in the central districts of the city who claim to have been annoyed by advertisers placing gum med stickers on their windows and doors, Councilman Samuel Sablotsky will present a resolution at tonight's special meeting of the common council to end the practice. The councilman will ask the ordinance committee to determine whether there are existing ordinances under which prosecution might be had, and if not to prepare a new law for ac- ton by the common council. Coun- cilman Sablotsky feels, he says. it Is an injustice to businessmen to have the effectiveness of window displays marred by this practice.

failed to grasp the situation. the foreign minister added, pointing out that instead of frankly and courageously dealing with the only government able to make binding peace with her, she re-takes the old card road towards Picking in order to associate anti-nationalist authorities there in negotiations and in the settlement of questions which the Chinese nationalism has compelled the British and others to envisage as vital and urgent"
 Chen asserted that Sir Austen Chamberlain, British foreign secre- ,ary, in a recent speech at Bir- mingham, England. implied that negotiations with the nationalist government alone would involve recognition of a division existing in the government of China Chen urged that the opposite condition would prevail, for the British method of proposed dual negotia- ton must cleave China into a na- tionalist China with government at Wuhan and a feudalist China with a goverr-aent at Peking."
 Says PeKtns Is Dying
 Today Picking is dying" Chen declared. "The British government chief sustainers of the Peking re- gime, Is facing the greatest crisis of her career In far Asia. Between Chinese nationalism and Chinese feudalism there can be no compro- mise. The moment has come wher the British must decide whether their trade will flourish in an in- dependent nationalist China ol continue to decline in an unfrec feudal China"

 No Reply to Kellogg Proposal

Secretary Kellogg still was with out word from the Chinese military leaders today in response to his Shanghai neutral zone proposal.
 The proposal has been laid be- fore Chang Tso-Lin, the head of the northern military alliance, by Min ister MacMurray but acceptance or refusal seems to depend on Sun Chuan Fang. the Shanghai military commander.
 In the south the decision lies with Chiang Kai Shek, commanding the Cantonese troops in the Chekiang province battle area
 In any negotiations as to the fu- ture status of the Shanghai interna- tional settlement. the question or Chinese representation on the coun- cil, which governs the settlement, probably will figure prominently.

GRADE CROSSING
TOLL IS HEAVY
Accidents This Year to Cost
1000 Lives in 1927.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-More
than 1000 persons will lose their
lives in grade crossing accidents in
1927, if the present death rate con-
tinues.
Reports filed by the railroads with
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion for the first six months of 1927,
show d total of 1852 fatalities, de-
crease by three from the number of
deaths so caused during the first
six months of 1926.
Other accidents in which the VIC
tins were injured. but not killed,
totaled 2,901 ~&uring the first six
months of 1927. This is a reduction
by 209 from the number injured
during the corresponding period last
year.
There were SO fewer grade cross
ing accidents during the first six
months of 1927 than during the
first six months of 1926. Last year
the number of accidents during this
period was 2,644.
Complete elimination of highway
grade crossings IS both physically
and financial impossible, the Ameri-
can Railway Association declares.
