MADRID, August 18.-Sidney Frank

matador, yesterday afternoon returned
TO the ring after an absence Of two
months, only to receive razZing from
the fans because of the color Of his
costume
Franklin killed two bulls, but the
kingsiders found his work with the cape
hasty and conservative and his sword
play below standard, though he used
only one thrust for each animal
What bothered even Franklin's fol-
lowers was a salmon pink suit, embroid-
cred with white lacings, in which the
American chose to make his reappear-
ence.
This suit, defying fashion DEGREES and
traditions of the Spanish arena, was
considered the principal cause Of jeering
Of Franklin's cape and sword work.
Traditions of the bull ring decree that
the wen dressed matador appear in the
colors of the Spanish flag-a scarlet
cape and gold braids.

 The patrol hoat which figured in the engagement is the Cook, a 110- foot converted submarine chaser from the local base. The rum boat believed by coast guard headquar- ters to have been of British regis try. She was described as being of the low, raktsh, oil screw type, such as are not operated from American ports but which are generally used in transporting liquor down the coast from the French islands of St. Pierre Miquelon.
 Decks Piled With Booze
 The Cook, on a lone patrol mis- sion. swinging the beam of her searchlight across the black waters of Block Island sound spot ted the "rummy' at 9 o'clock about three miles south Of the Race. Sacks of bottled liquor were piled high on the deck of the rum vessel. The boats engines were idling and she was evidently awaiting the ar rival of fast contact craft.
 The supply boat jumped into ac- ton as the beam from the search light found her and continued to gather speed as the coast guard en- sign was indicated and warning blanks were fired. A shell was sent screaming over her, but the vessel continued.
 Then began stirring chase, with the pursued craft steadily drawing away from the patrol boat. Out for Montauk Point she raced with the patrol boat still following and the gun aboard the service craft barking
