 Attorney Slade argued on a simi- lar issue and pointed that a person can't be convicted for one offense by trying to show that he commit ted another offense, except in cases where the question of specific in- tent was involved. MT. Alcorn then referred to the tax list of May l, 1881 which listed all taxable property of Frank Santa lucia and signed by Frank Hayes. Atty. Murray: If your honor please MT. Alcorn has made statement to the effect that Frank Santalucia's $ personal property list was referred to MT. Hayes address on East Main street. Is that true? Alcorn: l don't know--
 Murray: That is what you said You know that is the real estate on which Mrs. Hayes holds the mortgage.
 Alcorn: If your honor--
 Murray: I want to state to the court now whether he stated that MT. Santalucia's personal tax list was signed to MT. Hayes address Alcorn: I don't know anything about it.
 Murray: You made a statement for record and obviously for the press.
 To Frank Hayes
 Alcorn: My memorandum shows that the 1930 list is Frank Santa ducia GO Frank Hayes, 76 East Main street.
 Murray: And you lead the court to believe that, that was personal property? If the states attorney didn't want to have your honor in- fer that this was personal property, that it was attributed to MT. Hayes, it seems to me strange thing that the states attorney argued thereon that this was the way to tie up Santalucia with MT. Hayes. Alcorn: You know he was tied up with Hayes. So what is the use of talking about it?
 Murray: knew no such thing. I repudiate it and I say it isn't so.
 Alcorn: I'm simply attempting to show that the return made by San- talucia with respect to his property

 "Yes, and the same mayor, burst out Alcorn.
 But different controller and a different Jimmie Purcell with his pin point machine" replied Cassidy
 Cassidy contended that the refer ences by Alcorn to the career of Burns as a boxer had been to belit- tie the defendant. Judge Inglis de- clined to allow Cassidy to ask the witness if Burns was not an out standing and highly respected Ital- ian citizen.
 Pumps Were Used
 The witness did recall, however that during the last Hartford flood pumps owned by Burns had been taken to Hartford and Springfield and used continuously for three days and three nights. Burns also excavated a cellar for building to be erected by William J. Pape, local publisher, the witness said.
 Harley w. Tripp, a member of the DOaTU OI IIIlaIlCe, was III tlAc CouA V room late yesterday afternoon under subpoena by the state. It is understood that all members of the finance board have been notified and may be asked to testify early next week.
 John Savers of the motor vehicle bureau was also present. He may be called upon to tell how many motor vehicles were registered in the names of defendants accused of ob- taining exorbitant fees from the city for alleged services.
 Tuesdays session, which will be featured by two important rulings of Judge Inglis, will be the 51st ses- sion of the trial.

didn't warrant the fact from the time the first payment was made to 1887. It is presumed that he told the truth when he filed the tax list. Then I propose to offer the testi- mony with respect to the Connect icut Supply Co.,, and not only the Conn. Supply Go. but the Coppeto Go. and last but not least is Donate Petraoria, and you won't find any dump trucks of any kind listed in his tax list with the city of Water bury or whichever place he resides in. And the state will show that Dan Peters got between $75,000 and $80,0O0 from the city of Waterbury for trucking and that some of the checks already in exhibit were pay able to some place.
 Judge: I think that apparently the same question is going to be in- volved in offer of evidence, and I rather feel that I would like to take time to consider it in order to be safe about it before I make a ruling
 The jury was called in. Court was excused until Tuesday morning.

lucia GO Frank Hayes, 76 East Mar street.
 Murray: And you lead the court te believe that, that was personal pro- perty. If the states attorney did moi want to have your honor infer that this was personal property-that it was attributed to MT. Hayes. Il seems to me 8 strange thing that the states attorney argued thereon that this was the way to tie ur Santalucia with MT. Hayes.
 Alcorn: You know that he was tieo up with Hayes. So what is the use of talking?
 Knows No Such Thing Murray: I know no such thing. ] repudiate it and say it isn't so.
 Three times yesterday the jury was excused for arguments over the admissibility of evidence tenderet by MT. Alcorn.
 The afternoon session was fea- tured by the oss-examination o1 Joseph P. Moore, office manager o1 the Connecticut Supply Company who testified that the Connecticut Supply company did not receive any money from the city of Waterbury other than that in payment fol rental of equipment or services rendered.
 The tax lists which Alcorn seeks to enter as evidence, will show the amount of equipment placed or the lists by Santalucia during the years. Alcorn desires to compare the tax list contents with the bills fol rental by the company to the city.
 Alcorn stated that he desires tc use the tax lists for reference to the properties of the Abrigador Digger Conner Trucking Company ano Donate Pietraoria, of Bristol. 4 Witnesses Heard
 Four witnesses were on the stand yesterday, including MT. Moore Mrs. Francis Fruin, John Luskay and Bartholomew Scannel, the lat, ter being on the stand when court adjourned for the weekend, unti newt Tuesday. Scannel was the 13tf witness called since the start of the trial.
 Attorney Cassidy complained that the fact a contractor did not list his property on the tax lists does not prove he didn't furnish the services alleged to the city of Waterbury Attorney Sidney s. Cassell advanced a well-orated argument against the admission of the tax lists, citing numerous legal cases in support ot hiJ contentious.
 Alcorn, seeking the entry of the tax lists, said, "It is presumed that he told the truth when he signed the tax sheets under oath" The sheets show comparatively little equipment listed by Santalucia.
 To Consider Both
 Judge Inglis considered the question of entrance of tax sheets as similar to the question of the Fruin inventory, and said that he desired the weekend to consider both.
 In his cross-examination oi Moore, Cassidy said that he would call him Frankie Burns, in honol of the day. Alcorn reminded him that the name Burns" is Scotch The attorney insisted that it was Irish, but unused that it all depend ed on how it was spelled.
 Moore did not recall that Frankie Burns had been a boxer. He did remember, however, that Sergeant Charles Nolan and "Jingles" Dona- hue, of the police traffic depart ment, had been boxers.
 Objection Sustained
 Judge Inglis sustained Alcorn's objections when the cross-examine, attempted to bring from the witness statements concerning the volume of business of the Connecticut Supply Company with the city in 1888.
 Cassidy said that the date of the information ran to May, 1889, that

City AndCOuntyi TO
Start Project For
Hydropant Float
CIVIL AERONAUTICS AUTHORITY OFFICIAL HERE
YESTERDAY; DUVAL STREET POINT PICKED
AS BEST LOCATION

t Captain Robert S. Fogg, sea-
plane specialist with the Civil
Aeronautics Authority, was an
arrival in the city by plane from
Miami yesterday, for the purpose
of discussing plans and loca-
ton for float to be used for
hydroplanes.
He was met by Mayor Willard
Albury, Carl Bervaldi, chairman
of county commissioners, L. C.
Brinton, of city council, Victor
Lowe, supervisor of National
Youth Administration activities,
and Clarence Thompson, city
mechanic.
The group visited many avail
able points in the city, but in the
end the point which was decided
to be the best suited for the pur-
pose, was the site of the old
Aeromarine station at the foot of
Duval street, on the property
owned by the Porter Dock Co.
Captain Fogg was of the
opinion that float could be
built at this point which would
be admirably adapted for the use
for which it is intended, and sug-
gested that the matter be taken
