CAFFERTY AUTOPSY
 FINDING AWAITED
Upon Report of Dr. Cos tello Depends Whether or
 Not HOlbrOOk Is Freed

Dr. Henry N. Costello deputy cor oner for Hartford county, has com plcted an autopsy on the body of Richard Calferty of Plainville, who died several days ago under suspi- cious conditions, and will submit his report to the coroner this afternoon.
 Upon the statements contained in this report, depends whether or not William Holbrook of this city, now held in bonds of $500, will face a mansIaughter charge or will obtain his freedom. Holbrook Is held on technical breach of the peace and as- sauit charge, pending the report of Dr. Costello, whose autopsy followed an investigation by the state police.
 Should the report find that Caffer- ty met his death as a result of a fraC- ture of the skull, it is probable that Holbrook will be held on the serious charge It is alleged that, after an altercation concerning a young wo- man, HolbrOok pushed Cafferty, caus- ing him to fall against an ice box. If the other theory, that of embolism, is accepted as the cause of death, Hol- brook will' be freed.
 Dr. Costello declined to make any statement for publication relative to his findings. He explained that he wished to submit the document to the coroner before making public an nouncement of any nature.
 The remains were taken to Plain Villp this morning from the O'Rrien undertaking parlors in Bristol, and were inferred in the Catholic ceme- tcry.
 Holbrook himself denies any i'm plication in Cafferty's death. lie de- nies he had any physical quarrel with the man and insists that Cafferty fell himself, following an alteration over an alleged indecent remark directed at a young woman friend of his. Hol- brook was recently discharged from the army after serving an enlistment at Fort Ethan Allen

Proposal Closely Guard- ed But Has To Do With Limitation Of Naval Forces Of World
Suggestions to Be Made Are Considered Possibly Too Bold for Realization at This Time.

Washington, Nov. 10.-CBy the As- sociated Press) to be made by the American delegation to the conference on limitation of arma- ment, apparently constitute the only suggestion prepared as to ways and means of curtailing naval eXpendi- lures without sacrifice by any power of national security. Great Britain is not known to have worked out any formula; Japan is awaiting the Amer ican suggestion; France and Italy are more concerned with land forces than naVieS.
 Proposals Held Secret
 Two days before the conference opens the American proposals remain a closely guarded secret. It is doubt ful if any but President Harding, the four American delegates and possl- bly, the highest officers and officials of the Navy department know exactly what the proposals are.
 Definite Formula Reached
 This much is known: A definite formula for agreement on limitation of naval forces has been reached by Secretary Hughes and his colleagues of the American delegation. The formula is an entirely practical one. It does not attempt to state any gen. eral rule for establishing equitable -eativity of naval forces between the powers. It does not attempt to fix a common denominator by which all
 i,,iIn nd T1, power assigned by agreement the number of units it could maintain with world approval
 Is a Bold Stroke
 The American suggestion will deal with things as they are. It will be a plain proposition of ships, built building or authorized; of naval basis of the vital element of naval re- placements, of the potential naval significance of merchant marines and of other concrete, existing or planned weapons and auXiliaries of naval war fares.
 Also it is regarded by those who framed the suggestions as a bold stroke for naval reduction; possibly too bold for immediate realization
 Beyond this limited outline of what is going on behind the scenes, noth- ing has yet been available.
 Much Speculation
 Washington is filled, however, with coniecture as to what the American delegation will propose. The eXplana- ton given by Admiral Baron kato, head of the Japanese delegation, of Japan's attitude ill entering the con- ference and her willingness to cut down her naval program under agree ment has added to the speculation.
 There is a feeling in some well in formed circles that Baron kato touched the heart of the matter in stating Japan's willingness to reduce her now famous eight battleship and eight battle cruiser fleet program. To that sequence is to be added a third
