GARDINER ID LEAVE COUNTY JAIL TODAY Hart'S Critic Will Be Freed Be-
 cause Of Sickness
 SENTENCED LAST MARCH
Man Convicted of Labelling Chief of Police Had Until December Ii to Serve, But Heart Trouble Lib crateu Him.

Henry E. Gardiner, who was con-
 victed of criminal libel and scn-
 fenced to jail for six months by Judge Isaac Wolfe in superior court
 at the March term, will be released
 from jail this afternoon on account Of heart trouble. with which he has been ill for some time, it was an nounced at the jail today.
 Gardiner has been feeling ill for
 the past few weeks. it was said, and physicians who examined him ad- vised that he be released for the good Of his health. Dr. F. Arthur Emmett. heart specialist, is under stood to have examined him this morning. after which arrangement s
 were made for his release At 2:&O
 o'clock this afternoon Gardiner had
 not left but it was said he would be at his home in this city before night. According to the jail records. Gar diner had completed the six months term and was working out the cost
 of the court. He would be released. with the costs satisfied on DeCem-
 Der II. so that his heart condition saves him practically three weeks of jail time.
 Gardiner has been in the public eye for the past several years, hav- ing been a candidate for mayor on the Farmer Labor ticket, and also
 a critic of the police department, especially Chief w. C. Hart. He wrote numerous communications to
 federal officials complaining of al legged violations of the immigration laws and tho prohibition law, and finally he released to a newspaper
 published in Bridgeport, allegations upon which Chief Hart based a civil action against Gardiner and Peter ] Fajewski, recovering dana Ses against both in superior court.
 Gardiner was arrested in this city
 on the criminal libel charge and in police court he q rlscd for q trial by jury, so Judge NJ. D. SaNc bound
 him over to superior court. there
 being no provision for jury trial in police court. Trial of the criminal charge was delayed hy States At- torncy Hugh NJ. Alcorn because the civil action was pending, and finally the trial was had, attracting statewide attention because of the sensational nature of the testi-
 mony In the civil and criminal ac-
 tions, Chief Hart was vindicated.
 and Judge Wolfe, before he passed
 sentence, scored Gardiner for his abuse of Chief Hart.

From This City Have Long, Cold Ride in Bus to Grave of Rev. Patrick Power at Mal- den, Mass, and Watch Thousands Arrive.
Pathetic Scenes as De- formed kneeI at Burial Plot and Pray for Relief From Ailments 31 Make Journey From This City Sunday.

With no immediate miraculous cures reported among the 3l pill grims who left this city early yes tcrday morning for the Maiden, Mass, grave Of Rev Patrick J. Power, the party returned late yes tcrday afternoon with spirits high and faith still strong that cures, or at least improvements, would come to at least some of the score in the group who arc either ill or crippled.
 Travelling from shortly after mid night until after daybreak Sunday morning in an automobile bus, tie New Britain group went directly to the grave and joined the throng at tracted from all parts of the east by reports Of miraculous cures. They were allowed but a few mo- mcnts at the grave, this rule having been noccssitated by the thousands who came to Maiden for the same purpose. A return trip Of six hours brought them back to the city about o'clock yesterday afternoon.
 Long, Cold Journey
 It was bitterly cold when the bus containing the hopeful pilgrims left the city at 1:30 a. m. Despite he heat in the vehicle, the sharp cold air penetrated the vehicle and chilled the passengers, who were mostly of Polish and Italian nation ality. Their spirits remained high however, as the bus traveled swiftly through the darkness of the night and all expressed eagerness to reach Maiden. The older members of tn, party repeated the rosary when others spent the hours ill quiet pray CT. On all sides fcryent hopcs were expressed that the visit would bring aid 10 their suffering.
 Too Wrought Up to Eat
 At 7:l5 o'clock, the bus drove up to the Maiden cemetery but Was unable to make a stop for some dis tanCe past it because of the hun dreds of cars that were parked m the vicinity. When the bus finally stopped, the pilgrims almost piled over each other in their eagerncss to get to the grave of Father Power and disregardcd suggestions that they eat before visiting the shrine Despite the carly hour of the morn, ing, moro than 2,000 people were in the cemetery when the local delega- tion arrived.
 Cars were parked on every avail able lot within a half mile Of the cemetery and the streets were filled with persons bound for the shrine Excitement rcigned as hopeful pill grims entered the cemetery to visit the shrine at the grave of l'atheI Power, who died GO years ago al the age Of 25, only year after hC was ordained 10 the priesthood.

 No Religious service
 His faithful servants, Albert and Francois, loved almost as his own children, lowered the oaken box into the grave shortly before noon. In every respect, save one. the dying wishes of the Tiger were observed. There was no religious ceremony at the grave. The Tiger had not wish cd f..

LOS ANGELES, November P.-
Complete revision of downtown Los
Angeles transportation system, includ-
ing possible subways to supplement sur
face street cars and installation of O
newer type of automobile-pedest

ners prohibited-were described as
obsolete" and their replacement with
