 LINDBERGH CASE

Trenton, N. J., Oct. 13-(UP)- New Jersey authorities today an- ticipated a complete review of Bruno Hauptmann's def Q against an indictment charging he murdered the Lindbergh baby, when his application for writ of habeas corpus is argued in New York Monday.
 Hauptmann seeks to avoid extra. dition from Bronx county, New York, to Hunderdon county, N. J., where the murder indictment was, returned. To successfully defeat cxtradition he must prove beyond doubt he was not in Hopewell, N. J., the night of March 1, 1882, when Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr., was stolen from his prents' home.
 To attempt this New Jersey au. thorities believed, James M. Faw- cett, his attorney, will have to re- veal major defense plans. It was believed probably Hauptmann's wife and perhaps Hauptmann him. self would testify.

 Snow fell October 2, 1899, and October 10, 1925, but in each case the fall was recorded as only a trace.
 Trees Were Uprooted
 The strong wind which accom- panied the storm uprooted giant shade trees. still brilliant with autumn foliage, and felled 200 telephone poles and 100 electric light and power poles in the Pres que Isle area of far northern Maine.
 A bank holiday was declared at Washburn, Me, when failure of electric power prevented the open- ing of the vault of the only bank in town.
 Only one telephone line remained in operation at Caribou, Me.
 Tn several parts of Maine the snow neared a depth of IS inches.

Judge Wolfe's Finding May Affect Local Liquor
 Permits for Clubs

Liduor dispensers of the city read with considerable interest the ind F. ing and recommendation of State Referee Isaac Wolfe, handed down this week on the appeal of club owner of Southington whose appli- cation for a license renewal was rejected by the state liquor com- mission, Referee Wolfe recom- mended that the petitioner, the Italian-American club of SouthinG- ton, be given a renewal.
 The finding explained that the liquor commission rejected the ap- plication on the grounds of unsuit- ability of place. Referee Wolfe finds that the club Is closed every day until. 4 D. m. because the per- son dispensing the liquor Is work ing elsewhere, and also because there are no requests for purchas- es until that time.
 He pointed out that members of the club are not free to go to the club until after 4 o'clock and that there is no need for the club to remain open until that time.
 His finding will have to be acted upon by the superior court where the petition was placed on appeal from the liquor commissions deci- sion.
 A number of appeals have been filed in the superior court at Wa terbury and it is expected that they will be heard by state refer ees. Usually, the finding of a ref cree is accepted by the superior court judges, -.
