 Judge Wilkerson interrupted to ask, "do you think there Is some thing providential about this yer dict"
 "Yes," was the reply. ''The jury found the defendant guilty on counts that will not stand up. If this indictment was not drawn properly, and we contend it was not, 1t is just too bad.,
 Defense Attorney Ahern said that for all to the contrary in the evidence, Capone may have. filed an income tax return and may have followed attempt to evade payment of tax with payment.
 In closing his argument, Ahern said the verdict illustrated the fact that the indictment was so vague that the defendant could be tried again on the same charges.
 "If convicted at a second trial, the defendant could not even plead double jeopardy, so vague Is the indictment" he contended.
 :, As Ahern concluded, Grossman began an argument tending to dis prove the defense allegations, He finished his discussion and Judge Wilkerson tucked his notes in his | pocket, announced the adjourn ment and rose from the bench. Attorney Ahern explained after the hearing that the defense did not plan q motion for a new trial.

 Charles J. AllenF Connecticut Light & Power Co.,: "Our retail business leaped notably, and a large part of this business was in cash. In addition, our bookkeeping department reports that many of our patrons took the occasion to pay off outstanding light and gas bills. One of the most interesting results of this event, in my opinion was the fact that we were able to serve scores of patrons from out of the city who do not in the or dinary course of business come into our display rooms. The Cham Der of Commerce, the newspapers and the committee personnel are certainly to be congratulated for their achievement of a bog pro- ject."
 Joseph Sugenheimer, of Sugen- heimer's: Yesterday was the big gest sales day in the history of our business. The percentage of cash business greatly exceeded our credit business.-which is un- usual"
 J. Leroy Mintie, Hampson. Min tie & Abbott: "The biggest day in the history of our business"

Judge Ruled Immigration
 Officials Had Split
 Hairs in Their Efforts to Send Italian Back

Providence, R. T.. Oct 23-(UP) |-Immigration authorities "split
 hairs' in applying to James Ora
 bona, 28, provisions of a law under
 which an alien twice sentenced to
 year or more for felonies may
 be deported, Federal Judge Ira Lloyd Let's ruled to-day. Judge Let's granted a writ of habeas corpus sought by counsel for Ora- bona to prevent his deportation to-
 day to Italy, which he left when eight years old.
 Orabona wounded two men in a barroom brawl in 1922. He was given a four year sentence for shooting one of the men, and a de- ferred sentence of seven years for
 shooting the second. Upon com pleting the four year term he be- came involved in another less se- rious brawl, and the deferred sen- tence was made effective. Though Orabona shot two men, the shoot ings occurred almost simultane- ously and arose from identical cir cumstances, and it was splitting hairs'' to consider them as distinct cases of moral turpitude, Judge Letts stated. In addition, he said, Orabona was a product of Amer ican schools, and to deport him to
 the country he left as boy would constitute virtual exile.
 Counsel for the immigration de- partment prepared to appeal the decision to the circuit court o1 appeals. It will set precedent ii upheld. Meantime Governor Nor-
 man s. Case revoked the parole
 granted Orabona that he might be
 deported.

 Defense Attorneys Albert Fink and Michael Ahern, should their motion to have the verdict set aside be overruled, are prepared to battle to keep Capone out of prison while an appeal is carried to the United States supreme court. That delay would prob- ably be year or more.
 Capone himself has gone ahead with plans to sojourn at his Flori- da winter mansion.
 Meantime, Robert B. Neely, coi- lector of internal revenue, is seek ing to place liens on Capone's Florida home and as much of his other expensive personal property as he can locate.
 Jacob Grossrnan, assistant Unit ed States district attorney, and AL bert Fink and Ahern, attorneys for the gangster, consumed the entire morning session with arguments.
 Grossman contended the verdict. reached by 8 jury last Saturday night after eight and one-half hours of deliberation and finding Capone guilty of three felony counts of income tax evasion and two misdemeanor charges, was "consistent with the indictments. :"
 Fink and Ahern went over the long indictment on which their client was convicted, contending that 1t was ''insufficiently drawn and not specific" in not stating ex- actly how the income tax was evaded.

 Authorities agreed, however, in charging that Mrs Judd shot the girls to death in Phoenix, packed their bodies in the trunks and a suitcase and came with them here without the aid of an accomplice.
 Local authorities still believed that Mrs Judd must be in or near Los Angeles.

 The morning schedule provided for laying a wreath on the tomb of the unknown soldier at Ar lington, and formal calls on Vice. president Curtis, Chief Justice Hughes. and Secretary Stimson.
 MT Hoover speaks no French and Laval speaks no English, Con- sequently their discussion will be slowed down by an interpreter Still they hope to talk frankly to each other in a friendly fireside atmosphere that will bring them closer together than would a hundred diplomatic notes.
 Their program is crowded but Laval and his viyacious 19-year- old daughter said they were enjoy. ing 1t. Josette was taken on a blind date" on her first night in America, being entertained at a dinner-dance at the French em- bassy by Mile Reine Claudel, young daughter of the French ambassador.
 JoSette Laval Busy
 Washington, Oct 23.-(UP)- Josette Laval, a modern, vivacious brunette of 19, experienced one of the most exciting and busiest days of her life yesterday, but she liked it, so to-day was prepared to celebrate her second day in America.
 I'm not sure yet just what there will be to do. but whatever it is, 1t will be wonderful" the daugh- ter of the French premier said.
 Of course, there will be certain specific engagements-lunch at the French embassy, formal calls on officials. dinner at the White House-but Mile Laval will be free a good part of the day to do as she pleases. She and her com panion. Refine Claudel, daughter of the French ambassador, probably will be seen dashing along Wash ington avenues in Reine's bright roadster taking in the sights.
 While her father dined formal ly at the White House last night Josette attended a gay dinner par ty given in her honor by Mile Claudel at the French embassy. Francois De Buisseret, handsome embassy. The two had never seen each other before the party.
 It was a private dinner for about Ae 0Av 1tv.I akt to social set, and was followed by dancing to which 100 others were invited.
 Josette danced every night on the boat on the trip from France.
 Last night she wore a blue gown of silk. very long. with blue embroidery and a navy blue vel vet jacket. Little bows adorned the gown. but she wore no jew elry. That's one thing she doesn't like.
 Josette's visit to the White House late yesterday with her father impressed her by its sim plicity. President and Mrs Hoov- CT were "charming." she told friends.
 Although she had only a few hours in New York. Mile Laval saw enough of the metropolis to carry away vivid impressions of its towering buildings and busy streets.
 "I loved New York;" she said. "But here it Is so beautiful. Broadway is astonishing"

China Holds Up

troops in three weeks. China con. tests the validity of Japan's claim. ed treaty rights in Manchuria. Il was considered certain Dr Alfred Sze would be unable to accept the resolution without consulting his government further, and that Nan. kings consent was impossible.
 China might ask for an opinion on the treaty rights, on which the league would be reluctant to com- init itself. Furthermore. examina- ton of the treaties would require months and even years.
 Consequently, while modification of the draft of the councils reso- lution in conformity with Japan's concessions was expected at this afternoons council meeting, the resolution probably would be ac- cepted only by a majority vote. As article XI of the league covenant under which China appealed. re- quires unanimity. the result will be that the resolution will merely be presented without being adopted but having the moral force of the suppor of 12 powers.
 Japan's agreement, representing a considerable concession on heI part in order to establish a basis for q settlement in Manchuria. was regarded as a victory for Foreign Minister Shidehara. The minister has been in constant opposition te the "die hard" military element which has favored aggression.
 Considerable feeling against Great Britain was evident in gov. ernment circles because of Lord Readings stand at the league coun. cil. The statement was intensified by. reports of a conversation ir Peiping between Minister Shigem- itsu of Japan and Sir Miles Lam U. son, British minister to China. in been decidedly in favor of the Chi nese stand.
 Authorities felt on the contrary that the United States has shown a sympathetic and intelligent un- derstanding of Japan's position This view was contained in To- kio's reply to the Washington note regarding the Kellogg pact, which was published today.
 Russia! Back China
 Harbtn, Manehuria, Oct 25-- (UP)--RepoFts received here to- day said China has received back ing from Soviet Russia, and loyal troops are being equipped with arms to fight revolutionary movements in Manchurta.
 The report said Russian arms have been supplied Chinese soldierl in Heilunskiang wha have remain ed loyal to General Hsuehr Lang dictator of Mancburia. The arms, ii was said. were given with the un- derstanding that the soldiers were to oppose the movement against General Chang begun in Tsitsihar by General Chan f1ai- Peng.
 A number of Chinese generals already have broken with General Chang as the result of his an- nounced policy of non-reeistance to Japanese aggression. Numeroui municipal governments, including the capital at Mukden, have been set up by anti-Chang forces with the support of Japanese.
