ing in Villefranche harbor till next Thursday. as was planned.
 Kline, police said. was shot when he attacked a young French wom- an, walking with her husband on Q lonely road. The chief of detec- lives of Nice approached by chance and intervened.
 Kline, 1t was said, struck the de- tective and knocked him down. The detective then shot him from the ground.
 Fights broke out in bars and cafes, when the seaman began wreeking furniture and smashing glassware. claiming they were be- ing cheated.
 Reports of the rioting reached the ships, and patrols of seamen led by officers were sent ashore to round up the celebrants. The French thought they were rein forcements and began attacking them. Several officers received black eyes.
 The patrols halted the fights in the cafes and arrested 40 rioting seamen.
 Nice residents, accustomed to visits from sailors of all navies, said the riotlng was the worst ever experienced.
 The incidents occurred while the Riviera generally was looking for ward with pleasure to the ships visit. Night clubs at Juan les Pins last night even suspended their gigOlos for the duration of the visit so that the crews would have no competition. The gigolos de. manded full pay for the period of suspension. threatening to call a strike of all Riviera gigolos.

New Haven Favored
 As Convention Site
Local Delegates to Vote as Unit for Elm Cty-Other
 Contests Likely to Develop

Local members of the democrat ic state central committee will vote soIidly in favor of New Haven as the site of the fall convention at which the ticket of candidates to be voted on in November will be made up. Town Chairman John H. Crary, member of the commit tee from the 18th senatorial dis trict, declared this morning when interviewed that when the vote is taken at the meeting, to be held in New Haven on next Wednesday, he will support the move to have the Elm City designated as the 1884 convention place.
 Town Clerk Dora A. Egan, who also represents the 18th senatorial district on the state central com rnittee, stated that she, too, will favor New Haven. A similar state ment was obtained from Mrs Ger trude Guilfoile Corden, member of the committee from the 18th sem atorial district. The fourth men1- Der of the committee from this city is Senator Joseph H. Lawlor. While he could not be reached for a statement it was generally felt that he would line up with the other local committee members in Haven picked.
 Wednesdays meeting of the state central committee ' an New Haven promises to be featured with bitter fights between the "old guard" and new guard" factions. The "new guard" is expected to favor New London as the conven- tion city. The last two state con- ventions were held in that city.
 q think that New London has had its share of the honors." said Town Chairman Crary this morn- ing. "It is time to shift to another city, in my opinion, and I will cer- tainly favor the selection of New Haven"
 Other fights are also expected. One will involve the question or who the keynote speaker of the convention will be. Certain lead- CTS of the party contend that in view of his position, United States Senator Augustine Lonergan Of Hartford should be chosen to de- liver the address. Others, connect ed with the thew guard" are ex- pected to make an effort to have somebody else chosen. As rule the state chairman is empowered to do the picking but as Chairman David A. Wilson is close to Senator Lonergan and, therefore, might pick him as the "keynater," the thew guard" faction will make an effort to have the committee as whole to do the selecting this year.
 At the present time it is figured that the "old guard" faction is in the majority on the state centra! committee. The test on this ques- ion will come at Wednesday meeting.

FUGITIVE SLAYER
 STILL AT LARGE
Vermont Posse PrOwls Foothills for Farmer
 Harley Sherburne

South Wheelock, Vt, July 7- (UP)-Posses carrying rifles, shot guns and side. arms prowled through the foothills of the Green Mountains to-day, prepared to shoot to kill if they happened upon Harley Sherburne, farmer and fugitive slayer.
 They moved cautiously for they assumed that Sherburne still car ried the 30-30 automatic rifle with which he slew his wife Etta, 55, in a jealous frenzy at their home here yesterday.
 Sherburne accused his wife of having entertained a man during his absence at work. When she denied it, he grabbed a stick of cordwood and struck her on the head four times. In agony from the blows, the woman staggered from the house and started across the fields. She had not gone 80 feet when her husband, standing on the porch, felled her with a single shot from his highpowered rifle

VETERANS FAVOR TAVERN CHANGES
Withhold Endorsements of Candidates Pending
 Investigation

Endorsements of veterans seek ing public office, with the excep- tioA of Major James w. Carroll, candidate for the senatorial nom- ination in the 18th district. will be avoided this year by the Veterans Voters league, it was decided last night at a meeting of the 11th and 18th districts of the organization at the club rooms on Wilson street. The body also passed vote pro- testing against the display of beers, wines and liquor to school children and also against the ease with which the youngsters may now peer into taverns due to the state liquor controls ruling barring ob- structions in the windows of these places of business.
 Favor Tavern Changes
 Referring to the taverns, the members of the league in the 11th and 18th districts declared that: There should be a curtain on the windows high enough so that a child could not look in; there should be no booths; there should be no back rooms; no one under IS years of age should be allowed to buy; liquor should not be dis played or beer signs set up, on the inside or outside of any store win dow, whether it be a tavern, res- taurant, drug store or grocery store.
 "The condition as it stands in these places should be corrected right away" it was stated, "be- cause it Is doing more to degrade the children than any laws that have come out of Hartford in some time."
 Protest was also voiced against the way in which veterans are be- ing treated by relief committees and the unfair" way in which they are being investigated.
 Carroll Endorsed
 As for the endorsement of vet erans seeking public office this fall, it was decided not to endorse anyone only Major Carroll. The names of Senator Joseph Hack ett, Representative Daniel J. Ma nancy and Congressman B. w. Goss, all veterans, were also men, toned.
 A committee was appointed to look up the records of the mer in question and report back at a later date. Commander Muccino of the Brooklyn district presided at the session and State Comman- der Earle V. Murphy of New Lon- don spoke briefly.

The winner re- ceived a suspended sentence, while Mario was fined $10 and costs and given a suspended jail sentence.
 The victory was not all Curzi's, however, as he has still to recover from cuts and wounds received when he was draped through 8 plate glass window. The judge this morning planes both men for starting the fight but blamed Mar To for resuming it after the pair of battlers had been separated.
 A continuance of three months was given to Tony Eambuco, 19, of Merline avenue, on 8 breach of the peace count. The lad was given a stern dressing down by the judge for. making trouble at home.
 Patrick Shanahan, 37, of Oak vile, was given discharge for alleged driving while under the infiuense of liquor, the judge find- ing that there was no evidence in- dicating the accused's guilt.

 that Congressman Maloney will not seek the nomination for United States senator. While he Is con- sidered an independent in Con- necticut, it is known that he has certain sympathies with the "old guard"
 The other two men reported as being in the field are aleo "new guard" men, Professor Aver, who was defeated by U. s. Senator Au- gustine Lonergan for the nomina tion at the last state convention. and Attorney Hewes of Farming ton who was an assistant U. $. treasurer for a short time under the regime of the late Secretary of the Treasury Woodin. When the present treasurer of the United States, Morgenthau, took over the reins, Attorney Hewes was quickly released. He is now holding an- other government position but Is expected to exercise considerab ble influence when the coming state convention occurs.
 Tone Prominently Known
 Labor Commissioner Tone, be- cause of his widespread activities to eliminate sweat shops" and general child and female labor abuses. is considered a strong can- didate for the nomination of United States senator.
 Just who of the four being men, tioned for the place on the ticket will be nominated Is still a matter of speculation.

 At Tuesdays nearing Laura ac- cused Irene of stealing the bed furnishings, also three dresses. Irene took them, she said. wh ,n she found that she (Laura) Was going to leave the hospitality of her home and take new qual le~s.
 Irene not only denied any lSnowl- edge of the dresses but told the judge she was keeping the other articles only until Laura paid hsr that two-dollar bill. The judge be- neved Irene's story and so the arr ticles are now in the custody of Sergeant John Brickel until Laura brings in the two dollars. which will then be relayed to Irene.

 Lutze, in an interview which, ap- bearing in the Nazi party's official organ, Der Angriff, reorganization of the storm troops was essential.
 Lutze said that during the re-or- ganization a considerable reduction might occur. He was determined the troops should become political ly reliable as an instrument of the Nazi movement, he said.
 Kurt Daluege, new leader of the Berlin -Brandenburg storm troop division, began recognizing the five super groups under his com- mand.
 Tried to Shoot Hitler
 Storm troop reorganization brought to the surface again when Hitler made his raid on Roehm and other suspect leaders at the Wiesse Spa outside of Munich Ed mund Heines, a once trusted lead CT, tried to fire at him and was stopped only by bullet from the pistol of one of Hitler's aides.
 The story was secuted among we'll informed people. No one was in position to know except mem- bers of Hitler's raiding party, all pledged to secrecy. Those raided are dead.
 There were other rumors of sim- liar nature, which responsible sour- ces have denied as soon as asked about them. One was that Goering met with an accident" yesterday. Another was that Hitler's motor car was fired on. A third was that there was a fist fight at the Wiesse raid.

Loaned Employe Wins E Compensation Award
Company Which Employed Him Must Pay, Although Injury Was Sustained in Service of Another Firm

A company which loans an em-
 ploye to another company and
 while working for the latter party
 ts injured, he will be paid com ; pensatfon during his incapacity by the company which did the loan-
 ing according to decision handed % down by Compensation Commis-
 stoner James M. Lynch here today. at is believed to be the first deci-
 sion under the loaned" employe
 act passed by the legislation in a9Sl.
 Commissioner Lynch holds that tue Bertolini Bros. of New Haven,
 ln whose employ, Jules Vaux of \ New Milford was engaged, must
 pay Vaux compensation at the rate of $13.45 weekly since Oct. 29,
 1892 and until his disability has x diminished.
 WI Vaux was loaned by Bertolini z Bros. to the E. Suzio Construction Go. of Meriden and while working for the latter company was injured
 Internally. The case is similar to @sthe we'll known Parsons vs M. J. Daly and R. F. Worden Go. In that ! case, the late Commissioner F. M. 2 Williams held the Daly company \ liable for the death of Parsons who was working at the time in
 installing refrigerating apparatus at the Worden plant for the Wor- g den company. Parsons was an em- , ploye of the Daly company at the time. The Daly company appealed to the supreme court and while the decision was pending, the state \ legislature passed the act govern ing loaned employees"
 ! Both the Bertolini Brothers and the Suzio companies were engaged in constructing highway at Kent and Washington. On October 6, 1882, the Suzio company asked for the loan of Vaux to operate trac- tor because the Suzio company had no operator Bertolini Brothers agreed.
 Vaux worked three days, sitting on a steel seat and being shaken considerably because of the rough ' job of loosening and hauling large rocks. He injured himself inter- nally and is now incapacitated. Commissioner Lynch holds that the man is in need of an operation and directs Dr Edward H. Kirschbaum of this city to perform it. } The sum Vaux will be paid IS $1,1S3.60 up to date.

kSOnLlnueQ LTOW EaB6 4.J Magnolia branch of Hodgson-Ken- nard & Company, long-established Boston jewelry house, submitted to being bound and gagged while the robbers cleaned out the exclusive shop.
 After itimizing the loot. company officials estimated its wholesale value at $327,377 and its retail value at $50O,OO0 to 550,000. It was injured for half million dol lars.
 While they checked their losses, police and priavte detectives sought a regular summer resident of this aristocratic North Shore resort as the "finger-man." The suspect is believed to have underworld con- nections, perhaps with New robbers. This man, police were convinced, was not one of the five unmasked youths who actually carried out the raid.
 A score of state troopers, head ed by State Detective William North Shore today, seeking the IldH SuSpcCtSu VI HdNAhS piohhSN hte coup.
 Disposal of the loot was seen as a major problem. Several of the pieces stolen were of high value and could be easily identified. Com- pany officials believed the bandits might contact them during the next few days, offering to return the loot for price, perhaps $6o,- 900.
 Early reports were that the rob- bers escaped in two gray automo- piles. Subsequent information led police to believe, however. that there was only one escape car, q dark blue sedan bearing Rhode Island registration plates.
 Coast guards had searched fruitlessly for two mysterious yachts which slipped out of the harbor soon after the robbery, giv. ing rise to a belief that Hand pi- rates might have engineered the hold-up.
 Articles stolen and their approx innate value were as follows: rings, bar pins and brooches, $36,1S6; bracelets. $56,S94: pendants, $26.- 932: links and studs, $7I06: mem orandum goods, $52,S37: five plai. mum diamond brooches, $3,625; and miscellaneous jev'eiry $70.40s.
