S2N,000 in Stillman Case

New York, March - UP)-Fred
Heauvais, Indian guide, was offered
$4,000 to testify that he is the
father of "Baby' Guy Stillman,
Reauvais charges in his $500, 600
damage suit against James A. Still
man.
The complaint was made public
today in connection with Stillman's
petition for a change of venue in
the suit. The petition will be argued
IN supreme court on March u.
Stlliman's answer to the complaint
sets forth that Beauvais offered to
aid him in his divorce suit against
Mrs. Anne L. Stillman. that Beau
vais turned over letters to Stillman's
counsel. for which he demanded AMI
received money. Tho letters, which
Stlllnan contendcd passed between
Mrs. Stilluan and the guide, Ne,.
characterized as forgerics hv Mrs,
Sul|man in the suit which Stillmau
lost.
In his complaint Beanvais denies
writing the letters which we're ex-
hibited at he divorce trial and
which we're filled with frequent ref
crcnccs to "Raby' Guy. who is now
ten years old. The guides suit IS
based on the contention that he has
been ridiculcd and that he has had
difficulty in obtaining employment
because of the reluctance of persons
to trust him with women members
Of their parties.
Beauvais said that when he re-
fused the alleged $4,000 offer h..

CUBAN rum CLUE
IN Walsh death
Gambler May Have Been Slain
During Boodeeeers' Quarrel

New York. March 10 Llp--A rum
runners quarrel over Cuban liquor
has been added to the theoretical
motives for the killing of Thomas
Fatty) Walsh. one time bodyguard
for Aronld Rothstein. slain Broad
way gambler.
The other theories were that
Walsh was shot to death in Miami,
Fla. hotel last week to prevent him
telling anything of Rothstein's kill
crs and that he was killed in a sud
den quarrel by an associate he twit-
ted over an impeachment in his
/ speech.
| The theory that Walsh's death
might have been the outcime of a
/ quarrel with associates in a liquor
smuggling scheme was advanced by
| the foreign control division of the
prohibition department.
Investor Double Crossed
Agents said they have learned
Walsh had been connected with a
gang that induced wealthy New
Yorker to invest $4,000 in the
purchase Of cargo Of liquor in
Cuba. with the announced purpose
OF rcsclling it at a profit. Instead,
they said the gang had had the car
30 libellcd after it had been loaded
on the schooner Tres Reys. At the
subsequent court sale the liquor was
rebought by the gang at a lover
price and shipped 10 Guncay. off the
Florida coast. The New Yorker lost
his $175. 900.
From this was built up the theory
that possible disagreement over
profits Of the deal might have led to
the shooting OF Walsh.
Dispatches from Havana said Dr.
Edward klaWans. an attorney. told
Of being questioned by Havana Sc
cret police regarding court charges
he drew W against Walsh in 1927
in behalf Of the "Con,pania Federal
Licorera de Habana' in an action
TO collect s47.5oo due on liquor sold
TO Walsh and Edward J, Martin.
Unable to collect, the plaintiffs OBJ
tanned an embargo against ship
ment Of the liquor which Is still in
force.
Told Of Protection
II knew Fatty Walsh personally"
said Dr. klawans, land on several
occa sions heard him speak generally
Of protection systems in the New
York undcrWorl but ] have had no
direct dealings with him since Oc-
tober. 1927. and have no idea whose
enmity he may have incurred in that
time"
Dcmaris Dorc, night club hostess
and entertainer who told police she
witnessed the shooting of Walsh in
the Miami Biltmore hotel in Coral
Gables, said it had bocu tho result
OF q quarrel between Walsh and on"
of his companions who resented
Walsh's ridiculc Of lisp in his
speech.
Police Commissioner Whalcn said
Miss bore would he released from
police guard today if the authori-
ties at Coral Ga bles did not rcauest
her for a witness in the murder. II.
said the Florida police had been in
formed by telephone and telegraph
of Miss Dore's statements.
He secuted the idea Walsh was
slain in a fight over liquor running
profits. and said the quarrel was
over the division OF takings in tho
game which Walsh and
Eddie Wilson operated in Coral
Gables. Wilson is being sought by
Miami police in connection with the
killing.

HARTFORD TO CONTINUE
 NEW WATERSHED PLANS
Capital City Engineers Will Make Further Surveys of Pennington
 River East Branch

Refusal of the cities and bor- oughs committee to sanction Hart lords plan for a huge reservoir In the district of the Pennington riv CTS east branch, will not halt the movement of plans to that end, Mayor Patterson of Hartford has announced.
 The water department engineers will continue surveys and prepara ton of sketches and the board will buy up land wherever available in the district, tasks which, it is un- derstood, will require one year 10 complete.
 Mayor Patterson still holds hope that the general assembly will al low Hartford to proceed, contingent upon a favorable agreement with New Britain on distribution of the waters in the affected locality. The action of the legislative committee was most displeasing to him having had the effect, he claims. of plac- ing the interests of a private cor poration above those of Cohnecti- cut municipalities. In this respect, he referred 10 the Stanley Works opposition. The Hartford mayor sees no dispute between Hartforl and New Britain as 10 watershed use and believes an equitable set clement of the distribution question could be reached without difficulty.
 Senator Robert J. smith, chair man of the committee which has tabled the Hartford bill for two years, has admitted that the Stan- ley Works interest in it's power rights on the each branch effected the postponement. The protest Of the city of New Britain, as a munj- cipa!ity, played no part in the ac- ton because Of the fact that there appeared to be no ~oint at issue. he explained.
