least discuss the governor-general's ideas for bringing in a peacekeeping force, whether it's (British) commonwealth or a Caribbean force," Speakes said.
He said the United States regarded Scoon, who was appointed by Queen Elizabeth II, as "the only legitimate" governing authority in the British colony. The administration rejected the prime for recognition by Eric Gairy, the island's first prime minister, who now lives in Washington.
The administration backed away from its earlier statement that the invasion force had found almost twice as many Cubans on the island as had been expected. Speakes brought the estimate back down from 1,100 to between 700 and 800.
But the State Department said U.S. troops had uncovered secret treaties under which Grenada armed forces would be trained in the Soviet army and NATO integrated into the island's military forces.
WITH ABOUT 650 Cubans already in custody, U.S. troops appeared to face only scattered resistance from snipers and stragglers who had fled into the nearby hills.
U. S. officials will not predict how long elements of the American invasion force, which has grown to 5,900 troops, will remain on the ground until the end of the safety of Scoon and the new government.
Hatfield, however, complained. "I don't think that should be our mission."
"I think our mission was to secure the safety of Americans. Period," he said.
Sen. Lowell Weicker Jr., R-Conn, blamed the administration for the bloody incarnation in Grenada and the invasion that followed because it rebuffed Grenadian Prime Minister Maurice Bishop earlier this year when he came toington seeking closer ties to the United States.
Bishop, a Marxist, was killed in the coup by radical military leaders.

There was still no word on whether U.S. forces had captured Gen. Hudson Austin, head of the military council established after Bishop's killing.
A PENTAGON SPOKESMAN said Sunday that U.S. forces captured a man fitting Austin's description, claiming to be Austin and carrying papers identifying him as the general.
There also was no word on the whereabouts of Deputy Prime Minister Bernard Coard, believed to be involved in the attack.
Coard was captured by the Marines Saturday along with Revolutionary Military Council member Lt. Col. Liam James. Mobilization and detention of Coundy's family, Coady's wife Phyllis and two unidentified men.
Barbarian government sources said that they thought Coard was being questioned on one of the five U.S. Navy ships anchored off St. George's harbor.
Amid the continuing confusion over the situation in Grenada, a top official at the Cable and Wireless said that the British-owned company cannot understand why communications to it from Grenada, cut at the time of its坠落 formation of the Caribbean island, remain severed.
CABLE AND WIRELESS handles telexes in Grenada and provides satellite relays for the Grenadian telephone company. The official, who is responsible for knowing when communications would be restored.
Mortician Alfred Bailey of the Atway Funeral Home in St. George's said that his firm had removed 16 bodies from the rubble, and another funeral home had removed a body from the wrecked wing of the Richmond Mental hospital, which had 182 patients.
Clement Gabriel, administrator of the hospital, said that he thought at least eight more bodies would be found in the rubble and that 30 patients were wounded.
"Many of our patients escaped during the fire." Gabriel said.
claim was invalid because "this court has concluded as a matter of fact" that the station manager said "no such thing."
Craft continued from p. 1
METROMEDIA ATTORNEYS HAD said that the demotion was based on performance, not on class-based sex-stereotyping. Craft's charge that Metromedia used unequal pay practices was rejected by the jury, and Stevens upheld its opinion.
On Aug. 8, a jury awarded $375,000 in actual damages and $125,000 in punitive damages to Craft for fraud and issued an advisory verdict claiming sexual discrimination.
Regarding the sex-discrimination issue, Stevens said that Metromedia's actions toward Craft "during her employment at KMBC were not based on her sex."
The only exception to that, Stevens said, was that Craft would not have been hired, regardless of his performance.
Stevens said that Metromedia's treatment of Craft had been the result of factors other than sex. Her salary was less than that of co-anchor Scott Feldman — not because she was a woman.
THE JUDGE SAID that Metromedia had reassigned Craft from co-anchor to reporter "because properly conducted audience research demonstrated unprecedented negative viewer response toward her. She was not constructively discharged; rather, she voluntarily left KMBC rather than abide by the terms of her contract which she signed but never carefully reviewed."
but because her education and experience were not commensurate with his, he said.
The judge also admitted that he might have made mistakes in his instructions to the jury that were not in line with the law.
TO SHIELD THE 12 new jurers from publicity, Stevens said, they will be sequestered throughout the proceedings. In Craft's earlier trial, he admitted he was sequestered even after testimony and during deliberation.
Lindsay McFerrin, a Kansas City, Mo., attorney and chairman of the Kansas City Bar-Media Committee, 'said yesterday that Craft's case had drawn a lot of attention from her committee, and that she had served as an unpaid, impartial legal observer for KMBC.
"More attention was focused by the media on the media rather than on the law," McFerrin said of the trial coverage. "There is a delicate balance to be struck." He can only hope that a jury won't be influenced."
McFerrin said that the steps taken by Stevens to shield the jury from publicity in the new trial had been "a wise move." She would not comment on the outcome of the case, she said, because her committee, a panel of the Kansas Bar Association, wanted to remain impartial.
Denny also said he was not suprised that Stevens ordered a new trial because the damage to his motor vehicle had been paid.
LARRY DENNY, general counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union in Kansas City, Mo., said that if the jurors had read newspapers or watched television reports about the case, they had violated direct orders usually given by judges.
Following the original verdict, Craft briefly returned to her job as co-anchor at KEYT-TV in Santa Barbara, Calif., but left it for a series of speaking tours.
Halloween
Reports from some cities indicate that some of the rwdy ones got out earlier than usual.
POLICE IN DES MOINES, Iowa, reported two unconfirmed cases of needles in candy over the weekend, and Cudahy. Wis., police said a man found a needle in a trick-or-treat candy bar.
In Bossier City, La., police were awaiting the results of lab tests to identify a substance that soaked several packets of SweeTarts candy given to six trick-or-treaters.
Some people played trick-or-treat on other trick-or-treaters.
In another incident in Louisiana, a 12-year-old boy was stuck in the roof of the mouth with a straight pin when he hit it into a piece of Halloween candy Saturday night. A Ruston, La., woman was attacked by a piece of candy Saturday. The pin became lodged in her throat, but she also was not seriously injured.
Maryland police searched for a duo — costumed as a cowboy and scarecrow — who tried to rob Jack Simpson, 32, of Summer Hill Trailer Park. In Indianapolis, three gunwielding teen-age boys stole Halloween candy from four children.
MORE THAN 150,000 costumed marchers and spectators were expected last night at the 10th annual Halloween parade in New York's citywide stage, the nation's largest Halloween observance.
Afterward, an unofficial annual parade on Christopher Street was expected to continue into the evening.
streets of Georgetown, where a traditional three nights of costumed bar-hopping and parading in the city were held.
The Youth International Party planned an unorthodox holiday — the 13th annual "smoke-in" in Washington Square Park, with free marijuana.
Some people used Halloween for puposes other than to trick-or-treat.
Washington, D.C., police planned to block off
VISITORS TO JERRY Falwell's Halloween house in Lynchburg, Va., for example, were shown plenty of gore and death — in hopes of "scaring people into heaven."
For $3.50, visitors passed through a mock newspaper newsroom filled with dead reporters, a home into which an airplane had crashed, a police officer shot and killed a murderer and the scene of a bloody car crash.
