of the Peace stuphen without bail for grand jury action.
 Authorities who announced with a show of confidence upon Hayes arrest yesterday that the Hall Mills mystery had been solved evinced less satis- faction with their case today.
 May Change Whole Outlook
 One of the investigators said anoth- CT lead was being worked on which if verified would change the entire complexion of the case" This lead, he added, pointed away from young Hayes and appeared to provide mo- tive that would explain the mad slash ing of Mrs. Mills throat after she had been slain.
 Raymond Schneider, upon whose accusa ton Hayes was arrested, still was held today as material witness, and was being questioned from time to time in an effort to clear up dis crepancies in his story as compared with facts from other sources,
 Stories Are Conflicting
 Schneider said Hayes had shot the and the choir singer under the gnarled apple tree on the old Phillips farm, thinking the pair to be Pearl Banner, i , and her stepfather, Nicholas Bahmer Schneider admit ted that he, himself was in love with the girl and declared that Hayes had acted as avenger Of g wrong Schneider believed had heen done himself by the girls stepfather
 Hayes denied the story vehemently | hurling a counter accusation that Schneider had robbed the dead min 1, ster's body of a gold watch and was | seeking to divert suspicion from him self. Schneider charged that Hayes | stole the watch.

Administrators
 Also to Have Power
 to Impose Necessary Restrictions Fe ee.p ', Distribution asstt,. {
Russell Says That Present Price of Anthracite, Set a Week Ago, Will Remain for Time Being at Least.

Hartford, Oct. 10.-Except for the cities of New Haven, Rockville and Danbury and few small towns the state fuel administration has con- pleted its appointments of local ad- ministrators to assume charge of an- thracite distribution and control.
 Local Men to Act.
 The state administration will imme- diately put its policy of decentraliza- tion of control into effect, deegating authority to the local fuel heads to fix prices for their respective com munities with the approval of the state administrator, and to impose whatever restrictions seem advisable for fair and adequate distribution of anthracite. The local administrators may also use their judgment whether the present restrictions imposed by the state authorities upon distribution seem necessary and may ask State Administrator Russell that they be abrogated in that particular com munity.
 Price Fairly Stable.
 Mir. Russell, however, believes that for the present prices will remain at the price he set week ago, s1s per ton, over the price asked a year ago and also that the restrictions upon the deliveries of anthracite to con- sumers are still necessary in order that the supply of coal distributing into the state may be spread as thin- ly as possible. The appointments made today are as follows:
 New Appointments.

 INLURCH, SHE SAYS Mrs. Dc Bouchel Claims Candler
 Changed Mind at Last Minute ISLANDER CHARGE IS MADE
Woman Retains Lawyer When Capi-
 talist Declines to Marry Her Or Tell
 Her Who Has Assailed Her Charac- ter to Him.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 10.--Mrs. Onez. ina De Bouchel, of New Orleans whose engagement to marry Asa G Candler. Sr., Atlanta capitalist was announced some weeks ago, made public here today statement as- serting that pr. Candler broke the engagement because of a report brought to him refecting upon her character.
 Mrs. De Bouchel said Mir Candler had refused and still was refusing to furnish the names of the persons he said accused her She issued her statement after final conference be- tween her and MT Candler today.
 Mrs. De Bouchel came to Atlanta last night after calling MT. Candler over the long distance telephone. On reaching Atlanta she said she notified Mir. Candler and he and his son, Asa c. Candler, Jr., came to her hotel and the three were in conferenc nearly two hours.
 Protested His Love.
 "Mr. Candler was very much broken up," Mrs. De Bouchel said. T felt sorry for him. He told me he still loved me and wanted to marry me and that he did not believe this hideous islander which has been taken to him and yet he refused to give me the name of the man or men who accused me.
 T cannot understand his attitude. He told me he was weeping and un- happy and did not care whether he lived or died. He said he would pre- fer for me to go home and wait while and announce the breaking of the engagement and give as my req son anything detrimental to his char acter that might see fit.
 Hts Character o. K.
 'Of course I would not do such thing. for I know nothing against his character although I insist he owes it to me to give me the names of those who accuse me"
 Mrs. De Bouche said she had sum- moned a lawyer from New Orleans.
 The charges against her, Mrs. De Bouche said, had to do with alleged - conversations she had with two men during Confederate reunion in At lanta three or four years ago.
 All Ready to Wed.
 "Mr. Candler and I were to have been married on September 20," her statement said. All arrangements were made-clergyman engaged and | cards of announcement printed.
 "On September 15 he wrote me that 1t would not be fair to marry me and | bring me here where would be l slighted on account of reports circu- lated here against me.
 These reports. according to him, were that during a Confederate re- union in Atlanta three or four years ago when I had the supreme honor of being chaperon general and when I was attended every moment. l had solicited two men to visit me at the hotel at night.
 These reports had been brought to him. he said, from sources he was bound to believe just before he was to take the train for our wedding. They would. he said. follow me wher- ever I might go. l would never be able to hold my head up again.
 This hideou5 slander and MT. Candler's reception of it and his say ing my future is ruined have broken k my heart put my will is not broken
