ter condition than ever before.

‘ CHARLES H. SPARROW DEAD
swoon a Go, Said to have Suicidod.
Charles H. Sparrow. formerly of
South Norwalk. is dead In the city of
Ibany N. Y. and it is supposed that
(I committed suicide. Mr. Sparrow
was formerly employed in the bonus-
bury & Mathewson shoe shop.
This sad news was first received
by John Palmer, one. of the. foreman
in the factory, In a telegram yesterday
afternoon. The message. which was
sent through an undertaker III Albany.
by the man's daughter. contained only
the meager news that the. body of Mr.
SpaIIow had been found, and that it
wsa thought that he. had committed
suicide.
Mr Sparrow, up to about ten days
ago worked in the. Louusbury & Math
ewson factory. III-I resided with his
daughter. who is about twelve years
old. first in East Norwalk and later
In Washington street. Mr. Sparrow
met with an accident when a boy
which ah‘octcd his hearing and he also
had difficulty in his speech so that
it was hard for him to get along in
the factory. if is thought that this aff-
liction preycd upon his brain and that
if he. committed suicide, it was III a
fit of insanity.
He had been a member of P. C. Louns-
bury Lodge New England Or-IleI of
Protection for about four months and
was insured in this organization. Char-
les H. Ferris, financial secretary. has
written to his daughter for further ar—
ticulars of his death.

When It Is stated that there are
probably only a little over five hundred
tons of anthracite or hard coal in the
town of Norwalk a better idea of the
seriousness of the coal situation can
be gained by the residents of the town.
In case of II cold snap. which Is liable
to come at almost any time. this sup-
ply would be quickly exhausted. and
there would not be an ounce of hard
coal left in town.
Today the leading New York dailies
are full of the coal strike. and an edi-
torial in one of them calling attention
to the seriousness of the situation has
been widely read and couuucntcd on by
IIIIveral of the most prominent citizens
of the Twin Cities. The telephones in
the offices of the coal dealers in town
are kept busy all day with Inquiries
and complaints about the high price.
Many of these persons are berating the
local dealers because they charge such
“big prices." In New York today hard
coal Is retailing at $15 a top. In Nor-
walk it Is being sold, one ton at a time,
for SIO. None of the dealers are an-
xious to sell. however. and several of
them are entirely out of a supply.
In con‘versatmn with some of the
loading dealers this morning. a Scntl~
nel representative learned that the sup.
ply in town was very short. One deal-
er estimated that there might be be-
tween l.l'100 and 2.000 tons in town.
while another was more conservative.
and doubted If there were more, than
live or six hundred tons left. As to the
prise, It was stated that it might be
raised to 812. or even 315 any day.
Many of the firm's customers. It was
stated. were using soft coal and the de.
mood for wood had increased consid-
erably within the past few weeks. The
statement that factories would soon
have to close down because of the
strike was not given much credence by
thII dealer. He stated that plenty of
soft coal could be obtained. and he
thought there was no danger of the
factories closing on this account.
There are only three dealers in town
who have any hard coal on hand at
present. One firm probably has sever-
al hundred tons. another loss than a
hundred. and the third not more than
fifty. The dealer who has the largest
supply was offered and refused a check
for $1,000 for one hundred tone. the
buyer to cart the coal at his conven-
Ieace. This III evidence that the dash
era who hare a supply are not willing
to part with It. and put it. out in very
small quantities.
As to how long the present supply in
town would last the dealer could not
say. but stated that at this time of the
year, for several years past. when cus»
tomers woreacttinc in their winter
supply. as many as a hundred tons a
day were sold. 1 case of a cold snap
the present can iy would go very
quickly. To everyone the question is
of vital Importance of the present time,
and many are wondering how the poor
is: the town will get through the win-

The. Norwalk and South Norwalk
Boards of‘ 'Water Commissioners held
a joint meeting, last evening, In the
office of the. South Norwalk commis-
sioners in Washington street. The
meeting was called for the purpose of
talking over the. water situation In a
general and social way. No special
action was taken. but the members of
the two boards were satisfied with the
present state of affairs. and are confl~
dent that the present rains will so re-
plenish the. water supply of Norwalk
that in a few days the City of Norwalk
will be able to take care of itself.

This morning a member of the South

in II general way. but no definite deci—
sion arrived at. "South Norwalk." be

night. The. reason for thisuls that both
Norwalk and Smith Norwalk are us-
ing more than the usual quantity of
wafer at the present. time. The manu-
fnrtories In both cities are very busy
now.
"There has been an unusual con-
sumption of water this summer. which
coupled with the unusually dry
season. has left the. ponds in a very
low state. but we are. confident that
with the present rains. the ponds will
be so well filled that in a few days.
probably by next Monday. Norwalk
will be able to get all the water she
needs without our help."
As to the quality of the South Nor~
walk water. the commissioner stated
that it was every day improving. and
probably would be In Its normal con-
dition in a short time. The water. he
stated. had never been found to con-
tulu any injurious or unhealthful
germs. when subjected to a chemical
analysis."
