WAXEY GORDON
 WEEPS IN COURT
He Is Captive, While Men Who Caused Depression
 Are Free Men

New York Dec 1-(UP)-Waxey Gordon, the beer baron, who testi- fled he did it all for the "missus and the kiddies,' wept in federal court to-day while his counsel de- picted him as the benefactor. of the farmer from the hop fields of the Pacific coast and the laborer in the cooperage works of the East.
 Citing, but not admitting the government contention that Cor don owned breweries at Paterson and Union City, N. J., white e-haired Charles G. Wahle of the defense counsel said that if the allegation were true ''this defendant provided employment to thousands of men during the worst years of the de- pression."
 And here he is," he pointed out in his summation. "a captive, while those who manipulated the mar ket and caused the depression are walking the streets, free men,"
 At this point Gordon's wife, a plain, middle-aged woman, entered the court room for the first time since the trial began and sat be- side. her husband nervously wiring ing her hands.
 The swarthy defendant who tes- tified in his own behalf that he was just a $175 week "cog" forced into crime by domestic re- responsibilities, lowered his head and wept
 It was learned that Gordon's ap- pearance on the stand yesterday was prompted by the success of Charles E. Mitchell, former presi- dent of the National City bank, in his trial on income tax charges.
 Gordon is charged with evasion of more than $500,000 in income taxes for 1880 and 1881.

DRIVE STARTED
 TO COLLECT ALL
 THE BACK TAXES
Two Prominent Owners of Center Property Have
 Had Demand Made

Waterbury's long anticipated drive for delinquent property taxes was lapnehed today with the filing Of demands for payment on two very prominent property owners, holders of important, centrally owned real estate. Tax Collector William A. Ennis, in announcing that he has resorted to the use of "alias tax warrants" as a last resort to get in back taxes owed the municipality, declared that the campaign will be pushed with out fear or favor to anyone.
 Under the law, if the property owners served with the warrants by registered mail do not pay their taxes, amounting to several thous- ands of dollars in each case on or before next Tuesday the city will take advantage of one of the most drastic state laws and will advertise the proper ties for sale. When the sale is made, the city will reserve for it. self the amount of taxes owed.
 Sections of the state law 1,225, 1.226 and 1,227 provide for action entirely different from the con ventional foreclosure procedure. where dispossession is slow and months and years of litigation are sometimes necessary. The alias tax warrant statutes gives the city au- thority to make demand for the payment of back taxes and to sell the property involved if payment is not made in five days. Disposal, in other words, is sharp, swift and ab- solute and there is ifo legal delay Other Connecticut cities and towns have resorted to the use of the war rants.
 "The reason is clear" it was stat ed this morning. "The city's books are encumbered with back taxes. A quiet investigation by the city shows that in many instances landlords have been pocketing rents and ap- plying them to their own needs in stead of using such revenue to de- fray taxes. Such is deplorable condition which should not be toi- erated Investigation also reveals that in most inatances the taxes are for over a period of years when times were good, property income was up to the standard and when taxes could readily have been paid"

 Slain Woman Is Held
Made Two Attempts To-day to Gain His Freedom Through the Courts But Judges Postponed
 Any Action in Cases

Chicago, Dec 1-CUP)-Earle Wynekoop failed to-day in two at- tempts to win his freedom from jail on charges of murder in the death of his beautiful wife, Rheta.
 Action in two court proceedings naming the young husband of the beautiful slain musician was post poned by Judge Joseph B. David and Jay Schiller to allow police further time to investigate the strange case. Earle was taken back to the county jail where his talented mother, Dr Alice l.. Wyne- koop is studying the Bible in prep #aration for her self-predicted death.
 Earle is held on a warrant charging him as an accessory be- fore the fact of his wife's murder. His mother. prominent physician. is held on murder indictment.
 The action of the, judges in re- manding the husband to jail was taken at the request of Assistant States Attorney Charles Dougher- ty who promised that in 10 days more police would be ready either to free Wynekoop or indict him in the case.
 A habeas corpus action in the case of Dr Wynekoop was dis missed due to her indictment. Dr Francis J. McNamara, physician at the county jail, said Dr Wyne- koop's physical condition was slightly better after fair nights rest,
 The elderly physician who is suf- fering from arterio-sclerosis is con- vinced she is dying slowly. Con- fined to bed in the hospital jail ward, she has spent much of the last two days in perusing the Bible. She spent Thanksgiving day read ing St Matthew.
 All the medical men in the world cannot aid me now" Dr Wynekoop told McNamara. T know my own case. have diag- nosed it myself and know there is no recovery. It is long slow and tedious illness.
 "St Matthew deals with faith. In an illness like this one must have faith. I read the chapter over two times."
