COAL SHORTAGE
 IS STILL ACUTE
Bridgeport and New London Have
 the Best Supply

Hartford, Sept. 16.-Thirty of the 40 cities and towns to whom Secrc- tary George E. Chandler of the Con necticut Chamber of Commerce sent inquiries about the hard coal situa- ton have replied and the shortages continue to average from 50 to so per cent. Secretary Chandler will lay before the directors of the state chamber when they mee: here Fri day afternoon the information re- ceived from the U. S. Geological Sur vey which shows that 100000 tons more hard coal was mined in the Pennsylvania anthracite region from April 1 to September 1. 1920, than in the corresponding period last year. Secretary Chandler said he would not commit himself to an in- depreciation Of these figures in their bearing on the shortage in Connec- ticut which on the face of it seems entirely unwarranted, Of the larger cities Bridgeport is best situated as far as hard coal is concerned, having about 90 per cent of the normal sup ply. New London reports d short age of so per cent with two coal companies forced out of business be- cause they were unable to get any coal for distribution.

-NSW Il 1OFh faSnlOn Authority.
 New York, Sept. 1j.-When we think back to the long stereotyped garments that used to do duty as separate wraps, today's models seem things of amazing joy and beauty and grace, as indeed they are.
 The model illustrated is of soft blue bolivia, embroidered down the front with blue worsted. then given an additional fine touch in the bands of beaver that outline the neck and the long, close, tight-wristed sleeves.
 Note the irregularities of this coat the fur about the neck. edging the collar on one side, hugging the neck on the other. and the skirt of the coat that falls we'll below the dress skirt in back. as if its maker had carelessly neglected to make it even.
 These careless effects are not mis- takes. On the contrary. they are inn portant features of the new fall modes.

automobile license whose reported number corresponded to that issued to Dunham Beedon. a Newark phar- macist, who was reported this morn ing to have come to Wall Street on business
 Federal investigators, soon to be headed by William ]. Flynn. chief of the Department of Justice, Bureau of Investigation. summoned from Wash lngton, centered their attention upon thcse wrecks.
 Some advanced the theory that the automobile had collided with a DOW der wagon, and tho Du Pont company was asked immediately 10 find out whether any Of it's vehicles had been In tho vicinity at tho time. This was done after construction men had .ex- pressed bctief that the truck was of the type used in delivering explosives
 Other investigatars sought to run down reports that bomb had been exploded in front of the Morgan building.
 Suspects Bomb Plot.
 Assistant District Attorney Tally. after visiting the scerNs. announced his belief that the explosion could not have been due to an accident.
 He announced also that his stan would question all witnesses of the explosion. He said that one thing that led hinf to the conspiracy theory was the time of the explosion. This was fixed by clock in tho sub treasury building which stopped at 12:01.
 "The factors that lead me to this belief" said Mir. Tally. "are that the time of the explosion was at 12:O1 D. m, when probably the greatest damage could have been done, and the location of the explosion was midway between tho Morgan offices and the new U. $. Treasury building"
 Police Trace Clues.
 Working on the conspiracy theory. the police picked up all remains of the wrecked automobile and wagon. even going SO far as to remove the shoes from dead horse in order to establish the identity of the vehicles and their owners.
 Detectives also picked up near the scene pieces Of east iron window weights. smelling of powder. There were dozens of these and the theory was advanced that they might have formed part of an internal machine.
 All pieces of clothing. including shreds of cloth and battered hats were collected by tho police.
 Bcctlou Found safe
 Beedon later was found safe in an accountants office .nt 52 Wall street He said he had pa arked his car. which contained no explosives in front of the building and behind another ma- chine.
