WARRANT ISSUED FOR
 ARREST OF FARRELL
Missing Salesman, Now Insane, Was Accused of Embezzling Funds
 From Moose.

The police have 8 warrant for the arrest of Bernard V. Farrell, the local piano salesman, who had been miss ing from June 2 until recently. but 1t probably will never be served. The warrant charges him with the alleged embezzlement of between $1,4O0 and $1,6o0 of the money in the treasury of the New Britain Lodge, Order of Moose. Chief William J. Rawlings has had the case investigated and Is convinced that Farrell Is hopeless1y insane and will allow him to be taken to the insane asylum in Middletown.
 The theory advanced that relatives attempted to shield him on the grounds of insanity seems to be groundless according to the police investigation. Farrell decamped June and the following evening, the local lodge of Moose met and decided to try to recover the money without le1- ting the affair get outside of the lodge. It was thought for a time that Far rell had fled the country, but there is little to support that belief now al- though his movements from the time he left the city until the police learned last Thursday that he was a patient of Dr. P. Fox's at the Hartford Hos pital are shrouded in mystery.

COAL ADMINISTRATOR NEXT
President Wilson Expected to Make Known Identity of Official Soon- Lovett Director of Priority.

Washington, Aug. 21.-President Wilson's next move towards the es- tablishment of government control of the coal industry, following the ap pointment of Judge Robert s. Lovett, chairman of the Union Pacific rail- road, as director of priority of trans portation is expected to be the se- lection within a. day or so of a coal administrator.
 There was no intimation to be had today concerning the identity of the man the president will name to con- trol coal production and distribution and to exercise the price fixing pow CTS given in the food bill. It is not believed that a member of the fed eral trade commission or Judge Lov- ett will be appointed.
 Judge Lovett's first official act was to direct railway and steamship lines to give bituminous coal shipments to the northwest precedence over all other freight transportation.
 There were outward indications to- day that President Wilson was seri ously considering the appointment of President Harry A. Garfield of W1l liamstown college as coal admins >trator.

Armed Farmers Shoot and Capture Former RefOrnla-
 tory Inmate Who Took Refuge in Loon Meadow

Norfolk, Aug. 21.-Armed citizens and police officers this afternoon had surrounded a path of woodland in Loom Meadow in order to take dead or alive Michael Domi. aged 21, former Cheshire reformatory inmate, who was wanted for an assault upon Miss Gertrude Smith. daughter of Hiram Smith, of Colebrook, earlier in the day.
 Domi was captured this afternoon after being shot in the knee. He was sent to the Litchf1eld county hospital at Winsted.
 Domi had been working on the who is wanted for an assault upon place, having been sent up originally to this section with gang of men to work on the highway. He had been working steadily and was trust ed. This forenoon he surprised Miss Smith, who was sweeping off the porch and steps, by pointing a revol- yer at her and ordering her into the house. She retreated and Domi fol- lowed, and then seized her, bound her with rope and carried her into a bedroom where he chloroformed her, and then apparently secured her to a, bed.
 Later Miss Smith recovered con- sciousness and seizing dinner bell ran to the door. She saw Domi in the sitting room ransacking things and he had taken from desk $14O belonging to the Ladies Aid socety of the Congregational church. Domi ran at Miss Smith and again carried her bodily into the bedroom and again chloroformed her.
 When she next woke up Domi was not to be seen but she ran to the window and shouted to James Ander- son, an attorney of New York city, who was driving by with his sis ters, Miss Elizabeth and Miss Agnes Anderson and Miss Elizabeth ran into the house to see what the mat ter was. Domi was in his bedroom packing up his effects and heard the others come in. He pointed the re- volver a. Miss Anderson who was at the telephone and drove her out and then turned on MT. Anderson and made him run. Domi chased Ander- son up the road. firing five times at him, one bullet hitting the latter in the elbow. As Anderson had the start Domi returned to the house and made Miss Agnes get out of the buggy He then took the lines and drove to Loom Meadow.
 Word was sent about the village and some men started for Loom Meadow. On the way Hiram Smith was met and in the chase which fol- lowed Domi recognized Smith and called out: Come on, come on.' Smith went for shotgun and others sent word to have weapons brought. The Winchester police were asked to aid.
 Domi was in New Haven two weeks ago and is thought to have bought the revolver and left the city then.
