In the case of the New York Cen

when asked about the affair. He de-
clined to comment on the mystery sur
rounding the double shooting and said
that he was going out of town and
would not answer questions.
A day of investigation, authorities
said, had failed to lift in any material
way the veil of mystery which shrouds
the deaths of one Of the widest known
members of the Protestant Episcopal
clergy of New Jersey and the wife of
the sexton, who was known only be-

INDUSTRIES RECOVER
RAPIDLY W|THMNES
AND RAILROADS BUSY
Steel Mills Have Plenty of
Fuel and Operate at go
Per Cent.

New York, Sept 17.-(By The As
sociated Press Reports received In
financial and business quarters during
the past week indicate that the heavy
industries are making a rather better
recovery from the effects of the strikes
than had been anticipated. Soft coal
output is running close to 1O,O00,O00
tons a week and supplies of this com
modify are such that the steel industry
is now receiving sufficient fuel to run
at 60 per cent of capacity instead of
the 80 per cent of two weeks ago.
The limiting factor in steel works
operations is now but a scarcity of the
kind of freight cars needed TO carry
the industries products.
With soft coal mining and with
anthracite mining in the process of re-
sumption, the railroads are carrying
the largest amount of freight in near
~ two years. Car Ioadings for the
week ended September 2, totaled 932,
900, an increase of 41,000 cars over
the previous week.
The supply of idle cars is now reach
ing the vanishing point. With the
partial settlement of the shopmen' s
strike, il is felt that while a car short
age is inevitable, the railroads will

instead of blasting the last five feet
into the Argonaut. this amount of rock
will be dug through with picks to pre-
