A MT Smith, who resembles a MT Brown, repeated MT Browns sue cess in Waterbury Saturday, which means that local merchants were victimized so 1t was iearned to- day by worthless checks. There's one interesting clue which the police have in this case. It seems that MT Smith or rather his wife has a liking for chickens. In MT Browns case his preferences were radios and dresses, something for the house and for the wife. The results were the same, the mer- chants lost out.
 Working in the Washington Hill section of the city MT Smith, Charles R. Smith to be exact, drop ped into Coughlin's market and ex- hibiting the usual bashfulness of a husband about being too precise in ordering the family's dinner, se- lected two chickens, instructed, that they be dressed and sent to 51 Laval street.

WATER WILLIE

A Waterville industrial plant which has been in serious difti- culties as the result of the present industrial depression may be saved 70 the community If plans now in the works can be carried to sue cessful conclusion. stock holders and debenture holders of the Beardsley and Wolcott Manufac- turing company were notified of a special meeting called for August 7th at which a consolidation with the Connecticut Electric Manufac- turing company, of Bridgeport, will be considered.
 If the deal is approved 1t will probably mean the transfer of the physical properties of the Bridge port plant to Waterville. The plan depends, however, upon the approval of more than ninety-per cent of the stockholders, on the appraisal of the property. and on the attitude of the bank note- holders.
 Industrial Managers, Inc. of New York City is now in the pro- cess of incorporating in Connec- ticut in order to be enabled to acquire the assets of both concerns involved, enlarging their stock in the new concern.
 The local concern normally employs about two hundred, al though considerably more were on the payroll two years ago follow ing the merge of the Beardsley and Wolcott Manufacturing company and the Berbecker and Rowland Manufacturing company, with the renewal of the Waterbury and Hartford assets of the former to the Berbecker plant in Waterville.
 The Bridgeport plant, with a normal payroll of about one hundred and fifty, manufactures electrical transmission equipment and the local plant specializes in household appliances.
 The progress of the deal will be watched by scores of Waterville residents who find employment at the local plant and who may be thrown out of a job if the merger fails.

BUCK PRIVATE
 AND SECRETARY
 OF WAR DISPUTE
Nelson ROunseveIl Now Runs Newspaper in Colon Sovereignty Over the Place Is Ques= toned
BY HARRY w. FRANTZ United Press Stan Correspondent

Washington, July 2S--UP)-A one-time buck private from New York clashed with the secretary of war and to-day became the center of an international dispute revolv- ing around lands in the city of Colon, Panama, said to be occupied by saloons, breweries and brothels. The charges were made by Nelson Rounsevell, who left Cuba. N. r., years ago to find adventure as a gambler. locomotive engineer and real estate operator and now is publisher of the Panama Ameri- can. It Is the only American owned and American operated daily south of the Rio Grande.
 Yesterday, Rounsevell and Se- cretary of War Hurley in an open press conference argued over American responsibility for condi- tions in Colon.
 ROunsevell was a volunteer in the medical corps during the World war. At the age of Al, he served more than year as private oil the Foul front.
 Rounsevells adventures are known up and down the Pacific coast from Pudget Sound to the Straits of Magellan.
 In an interview to-day, he reiter- ated his charge that the Panama Railroad company, owned by the United States government. has lands in the city of Colon. outside the canal zone, tenanted by saloon keepers, brewers, gamblers and brothel inmates.
 For more than three years 1t has been my contention" he said Frequently reiterated editorially in the Panama American, and nev- CT challenged by the railroad com pany, canal administration of war department, that the United States governments stands in a false, in consistent, and vicious light in acting as landlord and owner of lands on which stand an entire city in foreign country, collecting ground rents monthly from every privately-owned business In the city. These businesses include sa- looms, two breweries, brothels, gambling places, dance- halls, dives and dens of all classes common to a wide open seaport city.
 Secretary Hurley's contention and attempt to inject the question of Sovereignty" into the problem and thereby shift responsibility to the state department does not in terest me-"
 Hurley in his debate with Roun- sevell had said that all the rail ways leases contained clauses for bidding use of the property for i'm moral purposes and had contend ed that this government could do no more because it has no sover- eighty in Panama.

CHILE IS FILLED UP WITH NOISE
 AND TROUBLES
Congress Will Probably Be Dissolved - People Have Not Yet Decided on Real President
By RAPHAEL FUSONI United Press Staff COrrcspOndcnt)

Santiago, Chile, July 2S-(UPj Dissolution of the Chilean con. gress was planned by the new gov ernment to-day as a first step ir consolidating its position.
 General Carlos Ibanez, who fled before the storm of popular pro- tests against his dictatorial regime reached Argentina, where he planned to go into exile.
 Juan Esteban Montero, premier headed the newly formed admins tration which assumed office yes terday. He succeeded to the post of chief executive. acting as presi- dent.
 Pedro OpaZo T.etelier, designated bv IbaneZ as his successor, was forced to relinquish his claims to power. He continued, however, as president of the senajte. where his authority is nominal. The populace considered his retirement from presidential claims an outstanding triumph for public opinion.
 Montero accepted the Vice-pres- idency-with powers of president in a stirring oration from Mon- eda Palace balcony, before tre- mendous throng of 30,000 shouting demonstrators. Shouts against Ibanez and his followers and de- mands for a purely civil govern ment were raised repeatedly.
 The new government, in re sponse to public demand, was re- ported planning to dissolve con grcss either by declaring the pres ent body unconstitutional because the members were not elected le- gally, or by compelling congress itself to pass law limiting it's eX' istence to a few more days.
 The present congress was formed in large part without elections 1T accordance with the Chilean cleo toral law, where, if the differ ent political parties agree before hand to nominate candidates equa to the number of vacancies. they are automatically declared elected without balloting.
 The establishment of Montero former minister of interior, as head of the provisional govern ment as vice president met the de- mands of students and other lead CTS of the uprising. The disorders of the past week-in which 35 per sons were killed and $50 others in tured-aroused the public to op- pose any compromise with the dlc- tator's regime. Any persons con- nected with it were rejected for high office.
 Ibanez departed as an ordinary exiIed citizen, shorn of all power and rank, There were tears in his flashing black eyes aas he sald farewell to few friends at the Moneda Palace. quietly entered an automobile and boarded heaVlly guarded train He reached Mem doza in Argentina last night ac- companied by his family.
 The new regime turned to US task of rest bring normal life In the capital, where excitement pre-, vailed. The immediate problem or maintaining order did not appear in view of the support or the army and navy. The provinces were quiet.
