r PORI BYRON MYSTERy CASE With official investigation apparent ly nt an end, at least for tlie present, the Village of Port Byron and die sur rounding cojintry began today, to re sume n norm al atmosphere which has, ’ been considerably shattered by the various theories that have arisen as : to the .cause of the wounds received by Frank Henry, a popular Port Byron man early Tuesday morning. Reports from Port Byron Indicate that Mr. Ileury, who is a World War veteran and an athlete of considerable ability, is recovering from his injuries. Physicians who have examined Mr. Ilenry continued to disagree as to the gravity of his injuries. However, all of the medical men who have seen him concede that complete recovery is only a question of time, unless some compli cation arises. County and village ofllcials made it clear that they do not intend to ignore new developments in the case, although they have concluded their investigation of the mystery for the present.

COUNTY WINS LARGE AWARO IN ROAD CASE Victory for Cayuga County ’is indi cated, lawyers say, by, the filing of an aw a rd of $30,000 in favor of the county in the highway case which has been in the courts for ihe past several years.

Coburn of this city. .The county’s contention that a considerable am o u n t of road work for which\ the county and certain towns were held responsible should have been paid, for by th e state was upheld by the courts.

LORD MAYOR TOO WEAK TO TALK London, Sept. 3 —Terence Mac- Swiuey, lord m a y o r of Cork, who has been on a hunger strik e since August 12, w a s sinking rapidly today and was m u ch weaker, according to his brother, Sean MacSwiney.

WANT PAVED HIGHWAYS ALL AROUND LAKES Brazil Finances in Bad Condition Rio Janeiro, Sept. .—Financial con ditions in Brazil have become so seri ous nnd exchange rates so erratic that North American banks and mer chants are refusimg further credits to Brazilian concerns until the situation shall have improved, according to speakers at a meeting today of the scnii-ollicial commericial association The association has requested the government to make inquiries in tho United States on tho subject. Lack of paved roads around some of the Finger Lakes has aroused expres sions of disappointm ent from many tourists in these regions. Need of such roads around the smaller pf the Finger Lakes is especially needed, it is pointed out. However, it would be unreasonable, tourists declare, to de mand paved highways all around some of the larger lakes such as Cayuga and Seneca Lakes, the latte r lake being flamked b y high cliffs which would make auto roads close to lake almost impossible. The lakes which ought to be encircled with paved roads, in the estimation of tourists are Otisco and Owasco. Skaneateles Lake ought to boast at least s good road all the way up on one side, say tourists Glen Ha ven, tho most beautiful spot on the latter lake, is almost inaccesible to mo torists, being at the end of a dirt road winding through a wild country. . The Finger Lakes, acording to the automobile map, have the following proportion of paved roads on the shores compared to length of the lakes: Otisco, 1-2 paved on each side; Skaneateles 1-3 paved on each side; Owasco, 1-2 paved on east side, 1-3 on west side; Cayuga, 1-6 paved on east side, no pavement on west side; Sen eca, an insignificant fraction on each side.
