Capt. Keegan's long record of service in the department would more than qualify him for the post, while Capt. Carson likewise Is known as an able officer and has strong support for the appoint ment to deputy.
 Appointment of either of the two men would mean a promotion to captaincy for another officer and likewise other promotions to lieutenant and sergeant. Should Capt. Keegan be named deputy, his present post as head of the de- tective bureau would go either to Capt. Carson or to Lieut.. Detective Joseph Stevens, 1t is believed.
 Meanwhile other veteran members of the department are mentioned for advancement. Acting Sergt. John Phelan will almost certainly be confirmed by the board as a permanent appointee, while an- other probable appointment Is that of Sergt. John Brickel as lieuten! ant or captain, which would most be proba bly be. followed by his quick retirement from the depart- fnent. Sergt. Brickei is the oldest man in the department in point of service. Several lieutenants in the department have hopes of winning q captaincy, while several ser gcants also have their eyes on an appointment as lieutenant.

Young Democrats To
 Hold Local Meeting
Delegates to State Convention in Hartford to Be
 Chosen at Hotel Elton Farley Monday Evening

The meeting is the first open session of the group since election and all members and their friends are urged to attend.
 Members of the New Haven County Young Democratic organi- zation met last night in Milford John r. Robinson of this city county president, presided. The matter of getting in the Der capita dues to the state organization as soon as possible was discussed. In this way New Haven county will be assured of it's full quota dele gates to the state convention of the Young Democrats in Hartford on the 26th.
 The organization committee of the county reported that there are now 20 clubs in the county. It Is expected that every town in the county will have a unit in existence before the county convention which Is scheduled to take place either late next month or early ir March.
 Several suggestions as to how tc keep up the interest of the smaller towns were made. It was voted tC have the various towns kept con stantly posted on activities. Mri William Braddoc of Stony Greek was named chairman of a com mittee to raise funds for tho county treasury.

an occasional glance into the deep pockets of his sunken blue eyes, and an opportunity to observe the fiex of his muscles, one has a chance to observe at close range the complete infexibility of his muscles.
 There is a. little vein that runs from above his ear down through his thin jaw, to his neck. There is a pulsation of the blood stream through this vein. It is regular, even, pumping at never-increas- ing, rate. At the upper hinge of his jaw there Is a muscle that occasion ally, but only occasionally, tightens as though he were swallowing something.
 Those small movements are the only refiexes in his system, 50 far as a man one foot away can see. And even when there are charges hurled at him from the stand, the pulsation continues at the same regular even rate. He might be visitor at the trial.
 Attitude Changes
 It is said that when Hauptmann goes back to his cell at night his attitude changes-that quick nerv- ousness replaces his stolidity. That is true. But no one can tell. at this writing whether this change of pace Is due to a consciousness of guilt. or to the ever-present dread of death.
 Hauptmann has not been of much assistance to his counsel. He has been short and taciturn with them. He has said, T didn't do It. I didn't do it," with repeated in- sistence. And he has left 1t to them to extricate him, if possible, from the strange tangle of circumstances that linked him to the crime.
 The state undoubtedly has built up a much stronger case against Hauptmann than appeared on pa- per. It has guarded in its archives many secrets that will be revealed only by the succession of witnesses it will call to confound the silent former machine gunner of the German army.
 Defense Has No Secrets
 The defense has no secrets, ac- cording to the breezy, ruddy- checked veteran of the Brooklyn bar who, after record of winning "handsdown" some 2,000 murder cases in New York which appeared fored cstined for conviction, accept ed the opportunity to become a chief character in the last chapter of the Lindbergh drama.
 Rcilly's defense Is that Haupt- mann is a victim of circumstances. The circumstances, he promises win be explained in due time and in startling fashion.

The first general meeting of 1895 of the Young Democratic Club of Waterbury will be held at the El- ton Monday, January 7th, at 8:3O D. m. in the grill room of the hotel. William T. Harrington will preside. The purpose of the meet ing will be to select delegates to the state convention to be held the 26th of January at the Hotel Bond in Hartford. It is expected that Waterbury's group of dele gates will be one of the largest, as the local club has been ex- ceptionally active and has a much larger membership than any city in the state of equal size.
 Plans for educational activities for the winter months will also be discussed and new members will be requested to propose sug- gestions as to what would appeal to them in the line of meetings. Prominent state leaders have of fered to appear at the educational meetings of the local group and outline the different legislative procedure that takes place In the state house and senate. The best method for cooperation of the To- cal group with county and state activities will also come under discussion.
 The Young Democratic club of Waterbury sponsored one of the most largely attend rallies prior to election at the Elton, at which HI the local candidates spoke. and Atty. Thomas Dodd of West Haven whe is on the staff of Atty General Homer s. Cummings, gave an ex- ceptionally instructive talk on the place of tho younger democratic voters in politics. The executive committee of the Waterbury or ganization has plans to bring speakers of similar type to this city under its auspices.

eration is the extension of the de- tective bureau to a 24-hour a day bureau. At present this department has no men on duty after II o'clock at night until the next morning. This would necessarily mean an expansion of the detective bureaus membership, which would mean the transfers of men from street work to the bureau of inyes- tigation.
 Another change, rumored freely this week, but now said to be en- tirely out of consideration, con- cerned the elimination or the changing of the duties of the emergency squad, better known as the vice squad. Bridgeport this week eliminated it's bureau of investigation" whose duties were similar to the emergency squad here. It is felt that the work of the emergency squad here has been too valuable to discontinue 1t as a separate bureau, and hence the Idea of eliminating it was turned down after study. It may be, however, that the duties of the vice squad will be changed some- what in general character, but the group will retain its present mem bership and status.
 Hour Schedule Studied
 Despite official denials, the new schedule of hours for patrolmen and officers in the department is now under study and will un- doubtedly be officially proposed at a meeting of the police board soon. The schedule, as given in yester- days Democrat, would have the three platoons daily going on duty at midnight, q. m, and 4 D. m. as compared with the present shifting hours of a. m., 12 noon and D. m.
 Any plans for reorganization of the department or branches of the department will wait upon, in the normal course of events, the ap- pointment of deputy superin- tendent and the subsequent pro- motions along the line. Two men in the department are now in the lead in the pre-appointment con- sideration. They are Chief Inspec- tor William P. Keegan of the de- tective bureau and Capt. Dan Carson of the emergency squad.

 PUBLISH WARNING
Many Oddities Noted in Search for Typhoid
 Germ Carriers

Although the usual sites for
 typhoid fever germs in the bodies of typhoid "carriers" are the gall
 bladder, the bilary ducts, and the
 urinary tract, these germs are
 Sometimes not at all particular
 about their homes and at times are
 found in most unusual places, ac-
 cording to an article by Dr Harry
 B. Smith, former epidemiologist of the State Department of Health and
 now Superintendent of Health at
 West Hartford, which appears In
 the current issues of the depart
 ments monthly bulletin. :; In the article, Dr Smith cites
 three very unusual cases which the department has encountered m recent months. In one case, the carrier was discovered by an tn~
 vestigation of several cases of ty- phoid in a single family. The man refrain from handling food to De
 eaten by others. Despite this, the family later opened boarding house. One boarder soon came down with typhoid and died. The carrier this time was given writ. ten warning by the department. Irked at this situation, he went to a hospital for examination. His pathology indicated the gall blad- der as the seat of trouble and he was operated upon. At this time his appendix, found diseased. was also removed. Much to the sur
 prise of the doctors, the typhoid
 germs were found not in the gall
 bladder, as expected but in the appendix. After a time, the man
 was checked and discovered to be no longer a carrier.
 This same mans wife had dis charging sore on her chest, which developed after an attack of ty- phoid a year before, but she had not consulted health officials con- cerning it because she feared an operation would be necessary. Cul- ture of the pus discharging from the lesion was positive for typhoid germs. an extremely odd finding several ribs were found to be dis eased and had tobe removed.
 Very similar was the third case, that of another woman who un- derwent an operation for drainage of an abscess in the chest cavity. A specimen of pus taken at the time of operation was found to be posi- tive for the germs of typhoid fever. A later vist revealed that the patient was continuing to d.s- charge typhoid germs through multiple sinuses on the chest. This abscess first took the form of a | tumor-like mass, which failed to heal after an operation. It was two years after the operation when an l epid emiologist of the State De- partment of Health visited the wo- man and discovered that the dis charges from the wound were still | positive for typhoid germs.

HAUPTMANN IS
 IN DUAL ROLE
(Continued from Page 1.)

(Continued from Page 1.) straint even when 300 persons are searching his face hoping to find a clue to the riddle of who killed the baby on Sourland Mountain.
 The answer, the United Press learned today, is that when the eyes of the world are off of him, Hauptmann knows and shows his fear that some afternoon the jury may walk in and say Guilty. your honor"
 Court is over for the day. Jus tice Thomas W. Trenchard has just said.
 ''The prisoner IS remanded to the custody of the sheriff." Moves Quickly Away Hauptmann gets out of his chair and moves quickly toward rear door. Three men are on his heels. Harvey Lowe, deputy sheriff. in civilian clothes, paunchy, wearing thick trimmed glasses; and two state troopers in horizon blue uni- forms striped with orange.
 The bridge of signs is crossed in six quick strides and the prisoner Is at the door of his second floor cell. Then begins a strange rou- tine. The deputy sheriff takes the blue necktie off of Hauptmann and then strips the belt from his trous- CTS. Next the prisoner Is told to lift one of his brown oxford shoes. The laces are taken out of both of them. There is nothing left now on his person with which he could hang himself.
 Lights Everywhere
 The January dusk has fallen like a black blanket, but Hauptmann's cell Is white and hot with light. The flood lights are never turned off there. Before this trial started his guards stood in the corridor outside his cell and never took their eyes off of him. Now two go into the cell with him. Never be- fore has New Jersey guarded a prisoner like 1t guards this one.
 Dinner Is brought in-potatoes, beef, coffee. It comes on paper plates, and he eats 1t with a card board fork. No chance for him to make quick thrust at his jug ular vein with a metal knife or fork. Hauptmann bites at the po- tatoes gingerly and pushes them away. He chews one; perhaps two mouths full of beef and sips at the coffee.
 The let-down has come and his appetite is gone.
 Every time he lifts his arm, two pairs of eyes follow him.
 At 9 p. m. 1t Is time to try to sleep. Hauptmann stretches out on a cot and closes his eyes against the glare of lights that are never turned off. At 10:30 D. m. he is up, pacing the cell and asking for cigarettes. The two guards light the cigarettes for him, because this prisoner is not permitted to hold a match in his hands. He sleeps two. sometimes three hours, betweeen midnight and dawn, and asks for more cigarettes.
 Under that routine Hauptmann Is getting pale and losing weight. But somehow he bucks up every morning at 9:30 and a half hour later comes into court, throwing quick. defiant stare at all the eyes he meets.
