Mills Confesses On the former charge of un- lawfully stealing 'the chickens from Hoskin Smith on the mignt of the 21st of August, Mills had previously made a statement to Constable W, E. Smith in the Bowmanville police office and corroborated this statement in the witness box that he had gone to the farm of Hoskin Smith alone the night of the theft and had taken the 25 birds, placed them in four sacks and carried them across the fields to the parked car and taken them tc Varnum's farm, In the moruiug ha had awakened Gordon Varu- um and with the 25 birds covercd over in the rear seat, they had started for Oshawa with the :iu- tention of selling the chickens, when they were overtaken by Constable Millson and arrested, The story of the chicken theft as brought out in the evidence of Mr. and Mrs. Hoskin Smith, aud Constables Arthur Millson aud W. E, Smith, was that Mr. and Mrs. Smith had counted their thirty-three chickens the night before and on arising and golrg to the chicken house at ten min- utes to five the mnext morning, found twenty-five of their flock missing. They immediately telephoned Constable Millson, who in turn phoned around the neighborhood and also to Cou- stable Smith at Bowmanville. On information received amd acting quickly, Constable Millson oOver- took Varnum and Mills on tue Solina road near Enniskillen aud placed them under arrest. ane car ad chickens were driven back to the Smith farm, where upon being released they went around the corner of the barm and into their place of abode, proving thot they were at home. In addition Mr. and Mrs, Smith could posi- tively identify a few of the hens by specia] markings, Barrister A, Cochrane, of Cobourg, counsel for the defendants, insisted that Constable Millson should tell who 'had given him the informativn that led to the arrest of Varnum and Mills, but Crown Attorney F. D. Boggs, and Magistrate Cotton sustained Millson's objection to mention the names of the parties whereupon Mr. Cochridne sald, "What could be more public than a rural telephone lime?" Samuel B. Mills, 19 years of age, came out from Ireland three years ago. He had previously worked for Lawrence Simpsou and previous to his aggest had been staying at the Varnuw farm. In the course of the cross examination, Constable Smith told the court that when he was questioning Mills in the Bow- manville office, Mills had said he was engaged to one or the Varnum girls and did not wish to make a statement, but later he had conceded to the wish of the constable and told the truth, Resuming the case, court hav- ing been adjourned for lunch, the charge wag read to Gordon Varnum and through his counsel he elected to be tried by the County Judge at next County Court sittings. He made uo statement when asked if he had anything to say. The first charge read "chickens valued at $20," but later it had beuvn changed to read "over $20," to which no objection was taken by the defendents'. No mew evi- dence wag brought out, the same witnesses telling the same story as in the charge against Mills. In this case, however, Martha Varnum, sister of the accused, was asked to take the stand, sne said «he saw her brother go away in the car with Mills on the mor- ning of August 22nd but did not see nor know that there were any chickens in the car. Asked if they had any Plymouth Rock chickens at their farm, she an- swered yes, two or three, and they are still there. On Mills taking the witness stand and being asked where he was the night the chickens weie stolen, coumsel for Varnum ob- jected to the question, but was overruled by the court. He told his story, it coinciding with the statement as previously givem t) the court, The evidence being sufficient Varnum will come before the County Magistrate in County Court at Cobourg. Bail is being arranged.

Mollison, imploring him to abandon his proposed return trip flight over the North Atlan- tic Ocean to London. / Mrs. Mollison sent her plea after she had received a message from a Nova Scotia physician urging her to intervene because of the "dangerous condition" of Mollison's nerves. Mrs. Mollison's information came from Dr. Freeman O'Neil of Sydney, who informed her: "Your husband is my guest. As a medical man [I strongly urge that he should not attempt the reurn trip until such time as he recovers complete control of his nerves: "I think you should insist on this." Doctor Enlists Aid of Mollison's Wife in Effort to Stop Hazardous Flight Mms. Mollison immediately telephoned Dr. O'Neil and obtain- ed details of her husband's con- dition, Then she talked to Molli- son, entreating him to delay or abandon the return flight. Ap-- parently her urging was unsuc- cessful as she later sent ga 200- word cable, 'Please give in," the message said. "Everyone strongly advises you to return by boat. I am so worried by reports on the state of your health, T beg you to give up your ideal for my sale.' "The weather is 'definitely against you. At present yqur only alternative is to wait for Septem- ber full moon, This will 'mean a errific strain on your nerves Please, for my sake, if not your own, sacrifice your ambition for the time beinz and make your re- turn a safe and useful one, rath- er than a useless sensational in- ternational catastrophe." OPTIMISTIC FOR AUTO INDUSTRY (Continued from page 1) the number of Ontario vehicles in operation is a ray of hope, nay, a bright beam of encouragement for automobile men, If there are more cars on the roads, and being more extensively used, surely that means that cars are being more rapidly worn out and will need replacing." Signs of Improvement D. R. Grossman, who is also vice- president and general manager of the Studeaker Corporation or Ca- nada, opened his address by volcing his confidence that therc were de- finite signs on the horizon of im- provement that would bring better- ment of the present conditions, "In the past month," he pointed out, "we have seen definite in- creases in stock market 4nd com- lgnodity prides, the successful out- eome of the Imperial Conferenc, to give us the brightest ray of hope we have been able to visualize since we awoke from the Prosperity Dream of 1929." "But for the past three years," he noted, 'the replacements have In other words, there are 210000 car owners who normally would have replaced theid old cars with new ones, who have ecconom- ized by holding on to their old cars. Eventually, the industry can look forward not only to meeting the de- ficit in the replacement market, but to seeing the annual replacement volume rise again to 145,000 a year."

Following this action by the policé all relief was promtly stopped. Case Discussed The charge against this woman and her husband has not yet been heard in court, and fay not be heard for two or three weeks in the meantime friends of the' fam- ily are asking what is to become of them. The matter was the subject of a lengthy discussion at last night's meeting of the relief com- mittee, the final decision being, ac- cording to reports given to this pa- per from an unofficial source, "no relief until the case is heard," May- or Thomas Hawkes dissenting from this decision very emphatically in spite of his well-known and pro- nounced views reg:.ding the use of intoxicating beverages, Against Tradition The stand taken by friends of this family is to the effect that the committee is not following British traditional views In refusing thjs family relief, inasmuch as every person. charged of any offence must be considere¢ as innocent until they are proven to be guilty.
