Inquest Held
 in Bridgeport On Death of James Shea Formerly of This
 City

Several witnesses were question cd Saturday at the inquest conduct ed in Bridgeport in connection with the death of James Shea. 51, rail road employe and former resident of Waterbury.
 Coroner John J. Phelan of Bridgeport quizzed Frank Crutch- field, 21, a foreman of a railroad camp and Patrick McAveney, who was brought back from New York city by the police to be a witness at the inquest. Shea suffered head injuries on New Years Eve. When taken to the Bridgeport hospital he recovered consciousness suffi- ciently long enough to point out Crutchfleld and to blame him for his injuries. McAveney also testi- fled that Shea had told him that Crutchfield struck him over the head. The young foreman claims that Shea fell over the body of a man, who was sleeping on the floor of the gangs sleeping quarters.

 While fully 500 people stood along waterbury's Main stem, halting traffic and offering sugges- tions, the six huskies with the aid of rollers, crow bars and the big truck were engaged for an hour and a half in moving the eating emporium from it's parking place onto rollers so that 1t could be dragged to Meadow street.
 The dinning car Is 40 feet long, 12 feet wide and about 12 feet high. It was doing thriving busi- ness up to last Dec 31 when De- putty Sheriff John Jenusaitis plac-

pIete the leasing Of the ABB
erdeen-HOquiam structure.
Late this week there were
stfII two hold-Oufs Of im-
portant leases, without which
the Ohio win not proceed,
says Mr.. Nightingale.
An appeal especially directed
toward leaseowners on the Ho-
GUAM end OF the structure was
sounded this week by F. C. Fos-
ter and z. P. Arthaud, members
of the Grays Harbor county COM
mittee on oil leasing. They de-
cIared that the Ohio was ready
and willing to commence drilling
as soon as the leases we're in
hand, Their statement follows:
1T has come to the attention
Of the committee that many prop
erty owners in Hoquiam are I'M
certain with whom they should
negotiate oil leases.
"This committee has given con-
siderable thought and investiga-
ton to the matter OF oil leases.
There is no real benefit in Civ
ing leases unless by so doing ac-
tual development Is obtained.
The Ohio Oil company has prom
ised immediate drilling on the
HoQuiam-Aberdeen structure II
they obtain the leases they re-
quire. we believe they win do as
they promise. This committee
knows Of no other organization
able or willing to do this.
1--WE further believe that I'M
der present conditions leasing on
this structure to any other than
the Ohio OIL company win re-
tard rather than further devel-
opment."

Gasoline Consumption Of

however, does not make allow

proximateiy 100000 gallons
less than 1898, or a decrease Of
z per cent. This decrease was
due to the curtailed use OF mo-

ticularly Saskatchewan, where
consumption per motor vehicle
dropped 80 per cent, and in Al
berta where the decrease was "a

Eastern Canada showed In

age Of 4z3 gallons. In Quebec the
average was highest, 465 gallons,
with an Increase Of over 12,500,-

ton Of ss.2si,26S gallons. The
largest gain was in New Bruns-
wick where the total Of 1889
4a0 gallons was 40 percent above
the previous years figures.
The average consumption per
car is substantially less in Can
ada than in the United States.
This is largely due to the colder
climate OF Canada, many motor
vehicles not operating during the
winter months.

Whatever the President of the
United States says must be listened
to with interest. We Democrats only
hope that he will deal with the issues
frankly and that he will avoid the
temptation during the balance of the
campaign of evading the hard ques-
tions. We hope, for example, that he
will clear up the fog in regard to
where he actually stands on prohi--
bition. We are eager to hear how he
defends the Smooth awley Tariff Bill
which has created such havoc with
our export and import trade. Moth
ing could be more interesting than to
have from him the excuse for the de-
lay in emergency relief measures that
did not come until thousands of banks
had had to close their doors and ten
or eleven million American citizens
were out of work.
"He should also, and we hope he
will, explain why he permitted the
Treasury deficit to roll up to total
of three billion dollars instead Of cut
ting Government expenses and bal
ancing his budget as he went along;
why he waited until a Congress, one
branch Of which was Democratic,
came in session and compelled it to
do what he should have done two
years before, just as he waited in his
own campaign until the Maine cleo
ton, drove him to the hastings"

Sen. Harrison Outlines
Issues Hoover, Driven
To Stump By Maine
Returns, Should Discuss

Washington, D. C.-Senator Pat
Harrison (Dem., Miss.) makes the fol-
lowing comment on the enlarged
speaking program of President
Hoover:
"The result of the Maine election
has driven President Hoover to the
stump. The morning papers recount
that he is to make five campaign
speeches whereas until he heard from
Maine the program was for him to
confine himself to three non-political
addresses.
cts an excellent thing for the
campaign that Mr.. Hoover is to de-
fend his own policies instead of leav-
ing it to his Cabinet and a few ad-
vocates of minor grades to gloss over
his derelictions, explain his failures
and pretend that his vague policies
are based on something beyond the
obvious desire to appeal to both sides
of every controversy.
"Until last Monday he could ac-
cept such encouraging reports as
were brought him by his political cap
tains who told him what they knew he
wanted to hear. But it was different
after Maine had spoken. When this
banner Republican State delivered its
verdict, when the figures told him in
the starkest fashion that the first
electorate that had the opportunity to
register its opinion of his Admins
tration had pronounced against him,
the campaign bubbles vanished :. :.
Hence the announcement he would
appear before the people and plead
his own case.
