 wasn't very happy the admssion in fact It was wrUng from the questioning to which he sub mited.
 Sorrs want the Bridgeport lines separated from the Connecticut Company He doesn't want the lines separately operated here
 proof position is simple The Connecticut lines United States Circuit court The Lashar requires the city attorney to before the Circuit court modify it's decree respecting the Connecticut Company Bridgeport lines for period be paraed operaion accounting and their fares from the other parts of the system.
 Mr. Sorrs absolutely declined to join his company with the city request for modification of the decree
 Nevertheless Mr. Storrs a reasoning oblg- carry did the admission, though reluctantly
 The question people of Bridgeport to ask is this question:
 Why city proceeded under the Lashar plan to get three five and five cent fares.
 MT. Sorrs the head of the Connecticut Company and whG doesn't want the Lashar experiment tried, who doesn't want the Connecticut system cut up into may know why the city administration prevents five ent and brings in six eight ten and twelve cent fares This is unfortunate It would be interest why the administration, since March 3, 1919, has geonhoed recommendations and the five cent 
 forgotten in this connection that of the the administration expressed by it's chief lead money will be made by any that do not put in jail

ITALIAN CIRCLES GREATLY STIRRED
 OVER DECISION

Paris, Oct. 3o-Rumors received here that the American government had refused to accept the latest pro- ject put forward by Foreign Minister Tfttoni for the settlement of the Plume question caused a display of deep emotion in Italian conference circles in Paris.
 Although no official confirmation Of the rumor has been received, the Italian delegates generally feel that the information is correct and the delegates are showing great disap- pointment. While the heads of the Italian mission maintain their courte- ous, diplomatic manner, lesser mem bers of the delegation are outspoken, saying the decision would prolong in definitely the perplexities and anxie- ties now facing the Italian govern ment.
 It appears to be the general feeling in Italian circles that Italy has reach ed the extreme limit of possible con- sessions and will stand on her present position. It is said Italy's position on her foreign policy will be consolidat- ed by the coming elections and that Parliament has resolved to sustain the government along the lines of Foreign Minister Tittonis proposed settlement.
 The French newspapers generally concur in the Italian point Of view. expressing surprise at the American attitude.

 Miners To
 Walk Cut
Executive Board States No Development Could
 Stop Strike
OPERATORS CAN
 SHORTEN TIEUP

Indianapolis, Oct 30 Backed by sentiment displayed in yesterdays conference of officials of the union, the executive board of the United Mine Workers of America met here today to finish preparatory work in cidental to the coming strike of bi- luminous coal miners. No develop ment could avert a strike, it was stated, but some change in the atti- tude of the operators might result in the shortening of the tieup, according to union men.
 A few of the district presidents and members of the scale committee re- mained over for today's meeting, but most of them were enrouIe to their home districts to direct the locals in putting the strike into effect.
 More than 350,0O0 bituminous miners will be affected by the strike order and an immediate and complete tieup of the soft coal industry is pre- dicted by the union leaders, They expressed confidence that several thousand non-union miners would follow the organized men in their WaikOut.
 Pittsburgh, Oct. 30-The dawn of Saturday will find more than 100000 coal miners of Western and Central Pennsylvania and West Virginia on strike, according to officers of the United Mine Workers of America, in the two districts, who have declared that the men will obey orders of their leaders to walk out
 In the Pittsburgh district alone there were 1000 miners ready to quit work at the hour set for the strike according to union representatives while in the central and western Pennsylvania fields many of the 150,- 900 men were not expected to enter the mines during the first few days of the wall1out
 Union leaders in the West Virginia , fields have announced that they ex- pect 54,000 miners to answer strike and operators said that part of the 5000 union men in the non-union ] fields of that state might walk out

FEDERAL GOVT MOVES SWIFTLY
 ON GOAL STRIKE
CContinued from Page One

''In order to interfere as little as possible with the normal course of coal traffic, the railroad ad1ninistra- ton up to the present time, has per mittGd coal to go to the des. .gnated consignees. For the last two weeks open top equipment has been devoted to coal leading to the exclusion of other classes of traffic and the move ment Of such equipment has been ex- peditsd so as to facilitate the maxi mum production of coal. The result ua% been an exceptionally heavy coal production.
 ''LL having become necessary, how ever, to be prepared to insure against all temporary contingencies, that the transportation service be protected, regional directors have now been in structed to see that each railroad shall accumulate a necessary reserve of coal when it is not already on hand, purchasing such coal if possible and otherwise holding coal in transit. The practice thus resOrted to is practice which railroads have always employed in emergencies whether un der private or public control and nas been recognized as indispensable to the maintainance of an essential pub lie service.
 Tn holding such coal, exemptions will be made as far as possible of coal destined to certain classes of consignees in the following order of priority, which is the basis of priority adopted during the war by the fuel administration:
 '.l-steam railroads; inland and coastwise vessels.
 ''2-Domest.2. including hotels, hos pita.s and asyIums.
 ''%3-NavE and army.
 "A - Public utilities, including plants and such portions of plants as supply light, heat and water for pub lie use.
 '5-Producers and manufacturers of food. including refrigeration.
 "6-NationaI, state, county and municipal government emergency re- quirements.
 "7-Bunkers and other marine emergency requirements not specified above.
 "8-Producers of newsprint papers and publication of daily newspapers.
 Coal held in transit is not to be unloaded in storage nor use until ac- tually needed, so that if it's use is later found necessary it can be for warded to destination whenever prac- ticabIe. Instructions issued provide that there will be as little disturbance as possible in the distribution of coal but at the same time protecting the necessities of the railroads which have a public duty to perform
