London. April 1o.-(By the A P.)- Today was day of relaxation from the tension created by the coal strike and the possibility of a general industrial tieup, and gave the cabinet ministers and labor leaders an opportunity to get Into the country for a vest.
 Opinion on the present aspect of the crisis continues favorable. but meantime all precautionary measures and recruiting of volunteers are preceding actively and will not be relaxed unt:. the G:Irers are back at work. These preparatio form cd greay attraction for Londoneres to- day who. apparently no longei haunted by the fear of strikes by the railway men and transport workers, crowd1.i the parks and rivers, enjoying the brilliant sJn- shine. It was a striking contrast to Saturday. when fears of untoward de- velopments kept the nervous suburban population in It's homes.
 Two important views were apparent today, the first was the confidel. belief among the labor leaders that now an un- fettered conference Is assured a greater number of .jr jumpers will return to then duties. alythough under the terms of 'he agreement they only are required 10 ab- stain from molesting volunteer workers The sec5nd was that the government while firmly opposing a subsidy. IS will ing for a limited period to afford somt temporary assistance to tide industry ~. CT the difficult stage. It also is believed that the whole basis recently proposed fy the mine owners. which originated tho dispute will be discarded and a new basis | formulated for the miners consideration

RESELL FOR COLLECTOR,
 GATES FOR MARSHAL

Hartford, April 10.-Capitol gossip has It that State Comptroller Harvey P. Bis sell Is slated for federal appointment in the near future as collector of the port with offices at Bridgeport. The present occupant of the post is James McGovern of Bridgeport and the friends of J. A. H Robinson, a prominent Park City re- publican. have been trying to land the place for him. BisselI is a Ridgeheld man and is said to have the backing of state leaders. Owing to the practice of distributing equitably the patronage, il Is extremely unlikely any other big fed eral appointment will go to Fairfele county.
 The same rule will apply to New Ha' ven county where Col. Robert O. Eaton member of the house from North Haven is slated for the collectorship of internal revenue This means that Representa- tive Walter of Cheshire will probably mol be chosen United States marshal or May or Donovan of Meriden as prohibition en- forcement agent.
 The job of marshal according to pres ent dope" may go to Sheriff Charle: Gates of WilIimantic, Windham county Tax Commissioner Blodgett and Motol Vehicle Commissioner Stoeckel are twc state officials certain of reappointment IT June. Blodgett will not became attorney general Highway Commissioner Bennett | has still two years to serve before the ex l piration of his term.
 New Haven men in the legislature sa! that their colleague. Representative Fred erick l.. Ford, can have the mayoralt, nomination of that city and that he sure of election owing to his popularit. 1 with voters of every degree. The live Hest sort of a campaign is assured.

POLICE OF NEW YORK ARE
 ENFORCING VOLSTEAD ACT

New York, April 10.-Poiice continued their wholesale crusade against violators of the recently enacted state prohibition enforcement law today which was de- scrihed by some newsl,aper as the dry est Sunday" since 1896, when the late President Roosevelt, then police commis- siener, clamped down the lip on Sunday liquor selling.
 Frequenters of saloons, where regular customers have. heretofore been able to buy contraband liquor, admitted that New York was virtually "bone-dry" for the first time since the Volstead amend ment was enacted. Many saloons, which 1 have kept open. ostensi3ly for the sale of soft drinks" closed their doors and did not indicate whether they would re- open again.
 Coney Island the city's great play ground which was thronged today with i thousands of visitors. received pre-sea- son visit from special police squad of . twenty detectives, who arrested eleven men and one woman on cha rgss- nt shasiug ! hquorzin- theirspossession. Police Inspec- tor Sackett. who headed the squad, de- ciared the ca anpaign there against illegal .;quor selling and carrying would: be- wig orously continued throughout the season. :. ,'The only wet part of the -island;". he declared, will he the point at which the ocean meets the beach," i l Other squads connbed the city from ! Brooklyn to the Bronx. but few violators were found. Police officials expressed the opinion that saloon keepers and others i had taken warning and were proeeedine l to obey the law Tho statemert+la i night by First -Denuty Police Commits. : sioner Leach that the man who carried ! a flask of liquor was in the same class with the man who carried a gun. is be 1ieved to have disheartened those wlac 1 formerly were openly proud of protrud i ing bottle neck from the hip or overcoai pockets.
 The first case of dismissal after ar l rest upon 9 state liquor violation charge was reported today. when Magistrate 1 Francis K McQuade, discharged Freder ick Rcthe, a waiter, who was accused O. having liquor in his possession. Magis ! trate McQuade not only ordered his dis 1 bottle of supposed liquor be returned of procuring it were doubtful Detective i stood beside a tunthler of alleged liquo on a table.

CONFESSED AS UNTRUE THE
 STORY OF KILLING OF ELWELI

Buffalo. N. r.. April 1o.-Roy Harris. held here by the police on his cnnfes- sion that he was concerned in the nur- der of Joseph B. Elwell in New York last June, today confessed that his story Is not true. The prisoner had been ques- tioned for two hours by District Attorney Moore at the end of which time he made statement admitting that his origiaAl declaration was al false.
 Mir. Moore serI word to Charles s. Whitman and Captain Carey of the New York police, who were on their way 70 Buffalo. The development may cause them to change their plans and return to New York from Albany.
 Harris alleges as his reasons for the hoax that he had been separated from his wife and had met her again only las: week. and desired to know whsther she would be staunch to him were he in Fe- r:ous trouble. He said that if sine had not proved loyal and true blue" he would have gone to the electri chair without regret
 Harris confessed the hoax to Detective Oswald of the New York force On Satur day night. but the police officer did not make public the fact because he wished he said, 10 talk with Mir. Whitman and Captain Carey first. He placed a charge or hrst degree murder against the prison withdrawn.
 Oswald says that 1t was through in, wife that the prisoners tale was dis proved. He took the woman to the ont. lying police station where the man vas locked up and let them talk an hour or | so.
 Harris had Insisted that his wife wns In St Catherines. Ont. during the pisn- ming of the Elwell murder, while she 6e- clared that she was with him in New York that week. She said that she r7ve him a birthday gift of socks at that | time
 | Did you get birthday present re. yearZ' asked Oswald.
 Why. yes. two pairs of socks" said
 Who gave them to your ton.
 But you said your wife was in st Catherines at that time" said o7wald l. Oh well. you've caught me. The whol, thing Is fake" said Harris, with a hopeless gesture.
 At noon today Harris was taken to n. district attorneys office and confronted with his. wife. After he had admitted the hoax he was returned ta h-s cell a7S ordered held without bail in solitary cna. hnement This was done inc local ro. lice say. at the request of Detective os. wa.d. The wife. who is being detalr .s as material witness. was returned |, her cell also.

 In a speech al Rugby. T. II. Thomas. waymen. said the statement was not a victory for anybody. but rather "a tri- umph for a common cause"
 There is a general belief zmonE labor men that something in the shaPe of na- tional settlement will result from inc conference tomorrow. or at least 2 standard minimum wage with some Eys- tenn of bonuses for districts where eK- ceptional conditions prevail.
 The governments anxiety not to eFn- bitter the dispute is shown by the en- phasis laid on the fact that no soldi rs or sailors are employed in actual pump ing. but only in protective duties. It is understood that there will be genera resumption of pumping in South Wales tomorrow. and that this will be only just in time to prevent serious damage to the mines. It is said that altogether twenty-three pits, mostly small ones, are already flooded.
 The position of the triple alliance is i that the strike notices for Tuesday mid night are still operative and will not bs withdrawn until the conference is in ac- tual session.
