The immense development of the
automobile as vehicle in common use
both for pleasure and for business, is
making such drafts upon the supply
of gasoline as to compel an advance in
the price of that commodity. 1t is
realized that the supply of mineral oil
in the world is not unlimited Gasoline
comes from that and as oil gradually
advances in price gasoline goes up with
it.
On the other hand experiments show
that denaturalized alcohol alcohol
which has something added to it which
makes it impossible to be used for
drinking purposes is available in all
parts of the world at very low cost,
aud it makes as efficient a power as
gasoline, while not less safe to handle.

that is for use solely in the arts, or de-

sprung upon them and hey were only
able to make nine points, six more be-

CENTRAL BANK
 PLAN OUTLINED

Especial from United Press.)
 Washington, Oct. 5.-Although the plan has not yet been worked out in all of it's details. it is now possible to give an outline of the general scheme of the proposed Central Bank of the United States, the establish ment of which will be recommended by the monetary committee to Con- gress.
 According to information reaching the United Press from authentic sour ces it is to be- essentially a bankers bank, or agency, to do businessj with and for the other banks. It is not to receive deposits from the public nor to do any general banking business. It's main function will be to act as the fiscal agent of the government and, through it's large note-issuing capac- ity-limited beyond a certain point by taxation--Io come to the aid of other banks in times of emergency.
 Organizing with capital of say s1O0, ,0OO, ,O00, this sum is to be propor- toned among the several National Banks and perhaps to state banks also on the basis of their capital, with provision prohibiting any individual bank from acquiring voting rights in excess of it's quota.

EDITOR LANYON ON
 TRIAL FOR ALLEGED
 ENTERTAINMENTS

The trial of H. F. Lanyon of Green wich editor of the Greenwich Investl- gator, on a charge of embezZle1nent. was begun in the criminal Superior court this morning, the prisoner plead- ing not guilty to five cpunts charged against him. It is elleged that Lan- yon had been hired by "a number of parties in Greenwich to collect bad debts, and that he was to deduct certain percentage from his collections and turn the rest cver The rest was never turned over to the creditors.
 John J. Bain, of the firm of Hackett & Bain, butchers and grocers, testf- fled that Lanyon came to him, stating that he was, a collector of debts. Blain placed a number of accounts in his hands. Lanyons terms were to be from 10 to 50 per cent. on all eollec- tions Lanyon later on sent an item ized account of his work to Batn. It showed some collections. of which 50 per cent. was kept for himself; it also stated amounts paid monthly on other bills; and suits being started against others who had refused to make an accounting. Bain received some money, but not as much he claims as he should have received.
 There is a criminal libel suit now pending in the Common Pleas court against Lanyon, brought by the Washes of Greenwich, who allege that Lanyon is alleged to have used slan- derous remarks against the Walshes in his paper.
 Judge James J. Walsh is the presid- ing judge in the criminal Common Pleas court, but will call in another judge to sit while this case is being heard as he is enc of the complan-, ants.

STOLEN GEMS MAY TURN UP

'It's a terrible strain; we're inno- cent. People know we're innocent" so said Mrs. Ida Lebenthal as she was being conducted from the court room this morning by the sheriffs af- ter Superior Court Judge Williams had decided to defer sentence until later in the week. The court room was crowded. It is whispered that the au- thorities have hopes of finding the missing gems.
 Prior to the opening of court and while Lebenthal and his wife were in the Isheriff's office both were over come with anxiety and exhaustion, lips since Friday last. The wife con- stantly bemoaned her fate, declaring all the time that she was innocent.
 The husband sat in his chair and did not utter a word, while Mrs. Leb- entha1 was just the opposite While court, Lebentfal fell in dead faint. Restoratives had to be administered. With the moaning of Mrs. Lebenthal her sisters and relatives in the court room set up crying. The wailing of the two Lebehtha1 children, how ever, was most pathetic. They seem ed to realize the fact that was to be the lot of their parents.
 Lebentha1 looks ten years older than he did when the jury returned a verdict of guilty on Friday last.
 It became known to-day that a pe- tition raised by relatives of the Leb- entha1s had been circulated among To- court show leniency in the sentence. The petition was not presented this morning, so that it is assumed the signers were few.

FOR WOMAN INJURED
 BY AUTOMOBILE
Fire Burned Hudak $ Fence, But Cow Didn't Eat His Vegetables = In Judge Scott's Court.

Judge Scott in the Common Pleas Court, civil side has handed down a decision in favor of the plaintiff in the suit brought by Mrs. Julia Ban gong of Fairfield against Morris Beers, also of Fairfield On Nov. 25, 1908, the plaintiff while driving along the high way in Fairfield was knocked from her wagon by being run into by an automobile driven by the plaintiff. She was considerably bruised and sued for $1 900. The court allows the plain tiff to recover the actual damages, but does not allow treble damages, stat ing that it is now necessary in order to recover treble damages to allege that the defendant caused the collis- ion by negligence and failing to obey the statutes.
 In the case of Joseph Hudak of Stratford against Mary Greath, ct als, of Stratford, Judge Scott has allowed damages of $10 and costs of $10 against the defendant. The suit was heard in the Common Pleas Court and three counts were entered. The first that the defendant built a. fire on her prem ises in Stratford, which communicat ed with the plaintiffs fence burning it down. The second count alleged that the defendant threw stones and brambles upon the plaintiffs ground and would not remove them. The third count alleged that the COW of the defendant came through hole in a fence and damaged a number of plants. The court found in favor of the plaintiff on the first count only.

Well-named are Wear Resisting stockings.

No stocking sold at 9 cents is the equal of Wear Resisting from the stand point of service.
 This claim is backed by a record made in several years of wear. Hundreds and hun dreds of Bridgeport women have learned for themselves just how long wearing these stockings are-and we have never allowed them to. run down a bit in weight or qual- ity or finish or fitting abil- .ity. They are just as good now as when first we had them made yes, they are better.
 Wear Resisting stockings are made for the store under specifications which insure their extra goodness. They are of special yarn. More of that yarn is used than in usual stockings and so they are heavier. But they are not bulky, and because theil shape is right they are com. fortable.
