Lawyers OF Waterbury are

to the Republican-America

So far as the controllers

he claimed Waterbury and
out-of-town lawyers owed the city
$7,737.i7 IN fees due to the city
court, a potential $500 TO $1,000 may
be collected.

They determined that the lawyers
had been charged 81 and 81 In
most instances where the entry and

There was nothing in the special
act to change the charter stipula-
ton regarding city court charges.
Lawyers Prepare Claims
Thus, attorneys In all sections OF
the state, particularly in Water

which the city, by vote Of the board
OF finance, must pay. Some Of the
lawyers have claims aggregating
$500 to $500 against the city, the

Bill Kern of Carnegie Tech today
described as "the biggest bonehead
I ever saw pulled by any ofiicial"
the mistake Of Referee John Get

were on third down instead Of fourth
down in the final period of the

when really 1t was fourth" Kern
said. HE was on our boys all after
noon, as a matter Of fact, and then
he had to cap his general tactics
with booting a decision a high
school boy wouldn't have been
guilty Of.
II don't know whether he will
quit ofiiciating or not, but I know
what I'd DO II were in his place.
II he doesn't quit they're going to
have a nice jam some day when he
doesn't know the difference between
third and fourth down."
The outcome was that the Tar

downs. The Ramblers then went on

placed on the ship pending instruc-

ton.
The silver estimated to be worth
S4,500,O00 consisted largely OF jew
elry and tableware which Chinese
patriots had contributed to the gov
eminent for war purposes, and
which was being shipped to the
United States.
Shanghai customs officials yester-
day issued clearance papers to the
President Coolidge O 2i,936 ton Dol

was on Its way to the Chase Ma

Last night at the instigation OF

The result was that the ship was
unable to sail on schedule this morr-
ing and Japanese customs Officials
refused TO release 1t.
Negotiations continued throughout
today and late this afternoon the
liner began unloading the silver hop
ing to avoid further costly de-

BELIEVED NEAR
Judge Earnest G. Simpson
May Deliver Ruling
Here on Tuesday

Judge Earnest G. Simpson of the
superior court Is expected to make
a decision tomorrow on the applica-
ton Of Special Prosecutor Hugh M
Alcorn for change Of venue Of tile
Waterbury grand Jury cases, In
which 20 persons are accused OF
conspiracy to defraud the city.
Indications today were that Judge
Simpson would rule that the trials
be held at New Haven, this con-
clusion deriving from the comment
Of the superior court justice at hear
ing Of arguments by defense counsel
against the change Of venue.
Crowded Conditions
At that time Judge Simpson re-
marked the possibility of crowded
conditions at the Waterbury super
or court should there be jury cases
current In the three court rooms,
regular superior court, common
pleas and the third-floor courtroom
where, If the trials were to be held
at Waterbury, 1t is presumed the
cases would be heard.
Mr.. Alcorn contested this conclu-
sion, however, remarking to the
court that If 1t were a case of
changing the site of the trials to
New Haven he would be inclined to
withdraw his motion for change of
venue. The special prosecutor and
