MOTORMAN DID
 ALL HE COULD
 SAYS CORONER
Witnesses Testify Bracket Death Was Wholly
 Unavoidable.

Rain drops on the glass of the yes tibule and the fact that Crescent ave nua near the Congress street bridge is not very well lighted, prevented Motorman Michael McGovern from seeing Edward Bracket before the trolley car struck the latter, Coronor Phelan found today. The coroner decided that the motorman acted with due diligence and he ruled that the death of Bracket was accidental.
 The fatality occurred November 29 in the evening. The car was going at a speed of ten miles an hour at the time and McGovern said he did not know anything had happened until he heard the sound of the car striking the body. He said the electric lights on Crescent avenue are placed in such a way that the scene of the ac- cident is in the shadow.
 Several passengers on the car tes- tified before the coroner that they did not see Bracket trying to cross the street.

CROWDS SAW ACCIDENT BUT WON'T TESTIFY Coroner Seeks Those Who Saw Jitney Hit
 Capral.

Although crowds of workers from East Bridgeport factories were wait ing at East Washington and Noble avenues when John Capral was struck by a jitney last Wednesday night, only one witness came forward to testify before Coroner Phelan to- day. The coroner is very anxious to get more information regarding the fatality and asks witnesses to get into communication with him.
 Capral, who lived at 157 HalIett street, was cro0s;ng Noble avenue when he was knocked down by a jit- ney driven by Prazio Denaro, of 57 Harriet street. It was not thought at first that he was seriously injured but he died shortly afterward.
 The only witness today at the cor oner's hearing was Alex Ffchtel, 48i Bostwick avenue, an employe of the Singer Co. Ffchtel was a passenger in the jitney. He said the driver sounded his horn and steered to one side of the street to avoid two men who came out from behind a stand ing trolley car but when Capra1 sud denly appeared in the path of the jitney the driver could not steer clear of him. The coroner continued the hearing until next Tuesray morning.

5 PaSSeTlgel' Tr' aims Are
 Cut Down
Many Industries Issue Information Concern
 ing Their Closing.
CUT FOR EAST TO
 START WEDNESDAY

Chicago, Dec. 6-Drastic curtail- nent of passenger train service throughout the country, the eastern and southern regional directors taking virtually the same action as that two days ago by the central north and southwestern directors, today had been ordered as a fuel conservation measure. As the strike of coal miners entered it's sixth week, opti1n- ism, which some operators were said to feel, was not reflected in actual favorable developments reported from the coal fields.
 Additional industries today were closed or had given notice that oper- auon would be suspended after to- day, while the coal saving orders that already had put Chicago on a six and one-half hour business day and affected other cities of the cen tra1 west, north and southwest to q lesser degree, were extended to other places. At Chicago a six hour day beginning Monday was decreed and mem bers of the regional coal com mittee predicted that a few days continuance of the miners walkout would force a four hour day.

S1O,OOO DAMAGES ASKED AND ALSO
 AN INJUNCTION
Auto Company Seeks to Re tain Possession of
 Store.
1 dispute about the possession of

A dispute about the possession of a store at 617 State street has result ed in injunction proceedings being started by the Elm Auto Go. and Fred L. Mills, who seek to restrain Ely Lefshiz from ejecting Mills from the premises. Papers in the action were filed today in the superior court. In addition to an injunction damages of $10,0O0 are asked.
 In 1914 the Elm Auto Co. leased the premises from Mrs Eugene B. Peck and it was agreed that the com pany should have the privilege of renewing the lease for five years.
 Later the store was sublet to Mills and the owenrship of the property came by several conveyances into the hands of Lefshiz.
 The Elm Auto Go. and Mills gave Lefshiz notice that they wished to re- new the lease but they say he refused to let Mills stay on the premises and brought a summary process against Mills to have the latter elected. Be- cause of the value of the property for business purposes the litigation is at tracting attention among real estate men.

Cannot Add Cent To
 Coal Price
No Raise of This Kind to Finance Increase in
 Wages to Miners.
NC ATTEMPT TO
 SET WAGE SCALE

Washington, Dec. 6-Not one cent can be added to the price of coal to finance any increases in the wages of miners, Fuel Administrator Garfield declared today, after reading press despatches that Governor Cox of Ohio had proposed that miners and oper- ators in that state compromise on the basis of a 25 per cent. advance in pay for the men. Dr. Garfield indi- cated that the government would in terpose no objection if the increase could be given without advancing coal prices.
 There will be no increase in the present price of coal as fixed under the Lever Act,' Dr. Garfield said. mo ma tier what local arrangements and agreements are put into effect"
 He added that his position was ab- so1utely unchanged from that taken on November 26, with the authoriza- ton of the cabinet. pr. Garfield ex- plained then, in suggesting the l 1 per cent. advance, which the miners promptly rejected, that he was not fix ing wage scales, and had no authority to do so. He indicated that the in crease suggested was merely that which the operators were able t0 grant without advancing the price of coal which the government has fixed
