AMERICAN TRENCHES
 RAIDED
Two U. s. Soldiers Kill ed, One Missing and Four Wounded in
 Enemy Attack.

With the American Army in France, Wednesday, Jan. 31- (By the Associated Press) )- An American position on a cer- tain section of the French front was raided during a heavy fog shortly after daylight this morning. The attack was pre- ceded by a violent artillery barrage. Two Americans were killed and four wounded. One soldier isSbelieved to have been captured.
 Casualties have been occurring all most daily for several days on this sector. It now is permitted to dis close that all the recent casualties given out from Washington occurred in this sector. The deaths were caus- ed by shell fire, mostly shrapnel.
 Last night was fairly quiet throughout the American sector. The usual number of shells came over, do- ing no damage, and there were the customary sporadic outbursts of ma- chine gun fire from both sides at points where the opposing lines are nearest.
 At daybreak this morning the heavy fog that had been enVeloping the whole position and the country for miles around for several days, became still thicker, plotting out all except the nearest enemy positions. At 2

TAGS FOR COAL
 INSTEAD OF FOR
 SHOvELS ASKED

The distribution of coal shovel tags in Bridgeport is regarded as a joke" by householders who have been given the tags to tie on their coal shovels. In the coal line this morning one woman said, Were all trying to be patriotic and everybody knows enough to conserve coal, because we all know how hard it is to get. How are we going to conserve what we haven't got?"
 Here is letter, to which a coal tag was attached, received at the fuel committees office today:
 Perfectly ridiculous to allow such thing to be circulated amongst peo- pie unable to get shovel full of coal to save. We are lucky to have our rooms at 50 degrees let alone 68 de- grees." It was signed, "A wife and mother of three children"

The Board of Relief is prepar- ed to meet a throng of disgrnn- tld property owners at its first meeting tomorrow.

LANTERN LIGHTS ON HEAD, SEEKS
 $15,OOO AWARD

Claiming that she has been made deaf and otherwise injured through negligence of the defendant, Lillian N. Sherwood, of Fairfield, has brought suit in the Superior Court against the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co.,, asking SIS, 900 damages. Trial of the case was be- gun today.
 The complaint alleges that, on June 29, 1916, Miss Sherwood about noon, walking on a highway in the town of Fairfield and was about to pass un- der the railroad bridge at the Rubber Works crossing. She stepped aside before going under the tracks to al- low an automobile to pass. A lan- tern fell from a train passing over head and struck her on the head.

In answer to the many inquiries as to who bequeathed her the vast es- tate, she invariably answered that she was under a bond of S50,00O not to diyulge the name of her benefactor. She also said that the private papers of inestin1able value were locked up in the safety deposit boxes or the Bridgeport Trust Company.
 Notice was first attracted to the ac- tions of the woman by the return here of William Rich, one of her chauf- feurs. She had borrowed $4,0OO from him and had given him power of at torney to manage a factory she claimed to have in Chicago. Hlcn travelled to Chicago and spent many fruitless hours trying to locate the factory. At last he decided that the plant was myth and returned to bridgeport only to find that Mrs Chapman had left for parts unknown.
 Inuuiries started by Rich aroused the deep suspicious of all those with whom the woman has had dealings Now a. flood of creditors are daily beseiging the deserted mansion at Lordship Manor.
 The Lordship Manor home of Mrs Chapman was built by John Sullivan .1The Policy King of Waterbury, at a cost of $100,O00 and rented for $lO,- 900 per year. It appears that it was

LAST OF CITY'S DRAFTEES START
 FOR Fl. WRIGHT

Twenty-six Bridgeport youths, rep resenting the city's last contribution of it's quota of 2,125 men for the first National Army of 687,O00 men, left shortly before noon for New London. from where they will go to Fort Wright to replace Bridgeport draftees rejected for physical defects. When the roll was called every man was present. They assembled at the sta- ton shortly after g o'clock, but the train did not leave until nearly noon.
 The youths were proud in spirit and nearly all had friends or relatives to see them off. Scenes similar to those exhibited at previous times were enacted and when the train whisked over the roller lift bridge, tear-filled eyes followed it until it was lost to view.
 The local boards have practically completed their work on the first draft and are ready to begin exam nations on Sunday for men of the next quota.

GAS co. COAL SUPPLY
 IS ALMOST EXHAUSTED

The Bridgeport Gas Light Go. is the first public utilities corporation in Bridgeport to feel the serious effects of the shortage of bituminous coal. The company has only a three days supply ahead. A shipment of 10 car loads is relied upon to prevent the city's gas supply from being shut off. At press hour this shipment had not been reported in transit.
 Shipments by rail and water under the governments orders are expected to reach this city within a day and consequently the shutting up of more than a score of Bridgeport's facto- ries, as predicted by Administrator Carl F. Siemon a few days ago, will be averted.
