Denial that a military censorchtp had been established at Gary, Ind, where federal troops are on duty, be- cause of the steel strike, was made in a telegram received at the War De- partment today from Major General Wood, commanding the central de- partment with headquarters at Chi cago.
 No press censorship has been es- tablished at Gary" said the message. Your advice probably due to misun- derstard;ng of a request made to rep resentatives of the press not to pub fish certain information which would tend to compIicate the military situa- tion at Gary

THREE THIEVES WIL.L BE TRIED
 IN THIS CITY
Claim They Have Beer Stealing Cars for Five
 Years.

Peter Walters, Edward Maher and Barney Monoski, the three automobile thieves who were arrested last Friday in Newark, N. J., probably will be brought to this city for trial. When arrested they were in an automobile which they stole from Frederick A. Chaffee of Hewett street. It is eX- pected that this evidence will be enough to warrant their extradition. They are held under 5000 bonds in Newark.
 Detective HoIbrook started today to recover two stolen cars which the thieves sold to residents of Bridge port. One machine, a Willys-Knight touring car, was sold to Abraham Zemslzy, of e Sedgwick avenue, and another car, Ford, was sold to Nor ris Lass, a milkman of Stepney. Both of these machines will probably be returned to their owners.
 Since their arrest in Newark the men have talked freely. Walters, who

 B FEET HIGH

Mexico City, Oct. 16-The fossiliz- ed remains of a giant measuring more than 32 feet 10 inches in height were, according to report, recently discovered by workers near the little village of Nanacamilpa, state of Vera Cruz.
 The natives, who still cling to many of the traditions of their Indian an- cestors, declared the giant was re- lated to the gods of their forefath- CTS. They erected a catafalque in the plaza upon which the giant rested in state for many days, covered with flowers and at night carefully guard ed.
 The discovery attracted the atten- ton of scientists here. Manuel Ga- mic, director of anthropology at the national museum, expects to leave soon for Nanacamilpa to investigate He is inclined to believe that the fos- sil is that of a prehistoric vertebrae, not huDaaa-

Prisoner Pults "'Cap''
 Ill A Cell Kindhearted Policeman Brought Williams @
 Coat. FIND NO TRACE
 OF FUGITIVE YET

Frank Williams and Andrew J. Seery, of Bridgeport, accused of blow ing Q safe at the Howard and Barber company's store in Derby, last Au- gust, were scheduled to appear for trial in the City court in that place today. Seery, who had been released under S1,500 bonds, was located by the police yesterday. Williams was taken from the New Haven county jail and lodged at the Derby police headquar- ters.
 About o'clock this morning Officer Riordan dropped in at headquarters, and went to the cell room to see the prisoner. Williams was there, but he was cold.
 The kind-hearted Rtordan, not wishing to let a man freeze to death right In police headquar rters, hastened to get a coat. He returned to the cell with the garment, unlocked the door and handed it to Williams. As he did so Williams bounded out of his "apartment,' grabbed his bene- factor and threw him into an empty cell. Slamming the door he walked out, taking the coat with him
 The success of this piece of strat- esy put the officer in a tight place. There he was locked in a cell and no oIie III tie puIId4nB. mere was only one thing to do. Pulling out his re- volver he fired a salvo of shots. This alarm brought half a dozen men run ming from hotel directliy across the street, and they released the enraged officer.
 Although there was only one pris- oner on hand this morning, the court went right ahead with the trial. Seery was examined for the part he played in the crime and the case was continued under $5,OOO bonds At noon today the police had discovered no trace of the missing Williams.

 During Sunday there were frequent collisions between the strikers and the force of police and troops. Columns of strikers marched about singing revolutionary songs and engaging in stone throwing at the police and the cavalry.

well as about the quality Of. the stuffs
and the fashions In which they were

Demand for Rabbit Skins

IL recent years several kinds
of fur, formerly of SO little value
as TO offer no induce ment to the
trapper, have been raised in
price, and consequently collect
ing them has been made profit
able. Rabbit pelts, which are
extensively used by hat makers,
are among these products. One
eastern concern has announced
that It will need 10000, 600 rab-
bit skins during 1919 and 1920,
and it desires as far as possible
to secure them from American
sources. This is an indication Of
a market which should interest
many farm boy. This fall and
winter dned, cased rabbit skins
will probably bring reasonably
good return. They are sold by
he pound which will contain
seven or eight skins. Many farm
boys can readily acquire, in the
course of the winter, large num-
bers of skins which will net them
a tidy sum and, in addition, they
Will have the pleasure of trap
ping experience. The United
States Department of Agriculture
will supply any inquirer with
the names and addresses of pos
sible purchasers of the rabbit
skins and other pelts.
