-Robbers early today held up a
New York Central freight train
south of Chelsea station twelve
miles from here. ordered the train
crew to detach the engine and
broke the seals OF six cars. The
demands were backed up at the
point Or guns.
While railroad authorities con-
hrmed the theory OF police officers

had passed through Chelsea
carlier.. they were unable to give
any estimate of the amount or
value OF the goods believed TO have
been stolen.
The engine WAS sent several
miles up the road while the rob-

phone wires along the road were
cut.

 AGAINST HERLIHY

 Pike Is Discharged.

Springfield, Mass, Aug 22-Tim othy T. Herlihy, a barrel dealer of this city, was discharged in district court today when Detective Hickey of the Connecticut state police told the court that there was no evidence cn which to prosecute Herlihy in connee- ton with the finding of the body of an unidentified man on the Berlin Hartford turnpike the night of Sum- day, August 6 Herlihy has been held as fugitive and was wanted in Connecticut on a technical charge of destruction of property.
 Herlihy was the driver of one of two automobiles in which Springfield police officers were passengers that passed through Berlin on the night that the body was found near a gypsy camp by members of the gypsy band. The Connecticut police sought to con- meet Herihy with the mans death, but members of the party contended that they were in Hartford at the time the man must have been killed.
 An effort has been made to identify the dead man as Patrick Putnam, 1T years old, Harvard student and son of Dr. Charles R Putnam of New York who has been missing since July 14. but Dr. Putnam was quoted yesterday as saying that the body was not that of his son.

 Coal Situation

Washington, Aug 22--While the
 senate labor committee was taking the
 first formal action toward creation of | the coal fact finding commission
 recommended by President Harding, | the president let if be known today
 he was disposed to insist that the in vestigating body be made up ex- clusively of impartial representatives of the public without special repre- sentation for either mine operators or employees.
 A bill for a commission which the president would be free to&s. choose representatives of the operators. miners or the public as he saw fit was favorably reported by the senate committee At the same time the house interstate commerce committee, working independently. re fused to strike from it's tentative bill a provision which would expressly prohibit membership on the commits sion by any person having any inter est in or connection with the coal in- dustry ....
 The house committees bill also was favora bly reported after a number Of changes were made from the form in which it originally was drafted by Chairman Winslow. As perfected it nrovides for commission of nine members while the measure drawn by the senate committee specifies that the membership shall be five. In each bill the commission IS provided sweeping powers of investigation.
