How The G
Policemen Rid; ave
New York. July 28.4quads of de-
tectives were sent out yesterday and
all policemen were specially instruct-
ed to hunt down the man who mur-
dered Policemen Charles Reynolds
and Frank Rommanelll at Sixty-
fourth street and Second avenue late
Thursday night.
Acting Commissioner John A. Leach
said yesterday afternoon that there
was reason to look for the speedy
capture of the murderer. Policemen
were ordered to investigate the re-
cent movements of all yellow and
black taxicabs in the hope of finding
the chauffeur who helped the mur-
derer escape. It was reported that
the police had obtained the number
of the taxicab from an automobile
party which pursued it. but Inspector
John Cougbiin. in charge of the
search. refused to say whether this
was correct.
The official description of the oc—
cupants of the taxi from which the
policemen were shot follows:
The Gunman—About twenty-eight.
5 feet 7 inches. weighing about 135
pounds and dark complexion. W'ore
dark suit and straw hat.
The ‘Woman—Bionde. under thirty,
heavy set and about medium height.
The Chauffeur—Light hair and
florid completion. about 6 feet 9
inches. weighing about 195 pounds.
W'Ore a chauffeur's cap and dark suit.
No adequate motive could be sug-
gested for the double killing. Two
theories were advanced why the mur-
derer slaughtered two patrolmen late
Thursday night. rather than face a
minor charge of assault and speeding.
Theories of Killing.
The first was that the assassin was
a desperate criminal. sought by the
police for murder of some offense pun-
ishable by a long term in state's pris-
on.
The other was that he feared a
scandal if taken to the police station
with the woman.
Inspector Coughlin expressed anx-
ioty rm to locate tbs woman
the em. , Benita-at. they
Egon connection with the shooting?
and would be dealt with lenieutl! if
they came forward and . told their
story. '
The police sent out an alarm for the
taxicab. They described it as a “yel-
low and black demi-laudaulet Shaw
taxicab, marked Yale on both lid“
and rear. with disc wheels."
)[gny Shaw iaxicabs have been sold
in the city. The name Yale is the
trade mark of an association of taxi-
cab drivers. There are several hun-
dred of them. of which a latte num-
ber are Shaws.

Witnesses.
Information as to the taxicab and its
occupants was.volunteered to the po-
lice by three witnesses. whose names
are withheld. They were the owner
of a Studebaker touring car which .
pursued the taxicab in response to the
screams of its woman occupant at the.
request of the two dead patrolmen.

ATLANTIC CITY. July 28.—A
strike of hard coal miners throughout
the country loomedtoday as a result
of the breaking up of the wage con-
ference without an agreement.
The miners submitted a. resolution
to adjourn sine die. but the operators
modified it so that the meeting could
the conferene at the request of tithe-r
side.
Operators Started.
The conference went on the rocks
over the refusal of the operators to
grant the main demands of the mi.rs
-—-complete recognition of the union
and the institution of a. "check-off“
system whereby the operators would
collect all dues. assessments and ren-
slties levied by the union on its mem-
here.
The operators were said to have
been startled by the proposal of the
minors to raise certain other of their
demands if the operators would con-
cede them only those two points. The
operators had expected. it was said.
be called again by the secretary of-
that the miners would make their
.hcaviest attacks upon the wage in-
crease question.
Owner's Counter Proposal.
8. D. \Varriner. chairman of the
operators' committee. in a statement
following the breaking up of the con-
ference. confirmed reports that union
recognition and the “check~off" were
the stumbling blocks. The statement
said:
. “\Ve countered by offering to renew
the present wage scale and make it
effective until April 1. 1925, and to
eliminate the twelve-hour day. \Ve are
ready to submit all matters of differ-
enco to arbitration."
The operators also offered to speed
up the work of the board of concilia-
tion. the statement said.
Included in the demands of the
miners which they were said to have
been willing to withdraw had the
union recognition and “check-oi!"
points been conceded them was that
a 20 . cent wage increase for con-
tract on and 8: a day for mine
laborers.

GALLAHER WINS
Pllollll APPEAL
Supreme Court Finds Facts
Do Not Justify $5.00
Decision.
Two decisions affecting Norwaik
were handed down yesterday by the
Supreme court. Edward B. Gallagh-
er. secretu'y and treasurer of the
Clover Manufacturing company. was
victorious in his appeal of the dc.
clsion in favor=of the Southern New
England Telephone Company. and
Louis H. Lehmaier won his action
against the directors of the Norwalk
Hospital Association.
In the first-case, Gnilaher claimed
that an extra &charge of $5 per quar-
ter mile. asked by the telephone com-
pany for a private line telephone. was
unreasonable. The trial court held
that it was not unreasonable. but
the Supreme court found error in this
conclusion and said in part:
“The facts found suggest the im-
pression that the charge to the plain-
tiff was unreasonable—but they do
not authorize the determination of
that conclusion ‘ ° ' The Court
made the same error the Commission
did in finding that the evidence did
not justify his conclusions. and there-
after reaching these conclusions. and
rendering his judgment in accordance
with them and confirming the de-
cision of the Commission. and dis-
missing the appeal. The facts found
did not support his conclusion that
the rate charged the plantiff was not
unreasonable; at most they justified
a conclusion that the evidence before
the Court and the facts found. were
insufficient from which to legally
draw the conclusion that the rate
charged the plaintiff was reasonable."
The form of Judgment ordered cor-
rected by the Superior Court.
It is very likely that another hear-
ing will be held in the matter of
telephone rates in outlayfng districts
in the near future by the , Public
Utility Commission.
The Supreme Court's decision in
the case of Louis B. Lebrnales‘ vs.
The Directors of the Hospital Asso.
ciation gives the plaintiff the com-
plete power to vote in all meetings
notwithstanding that he is‘ but a life
director. This decision effects many

tlons of use or more to the hospi_ tal

Narrowly Misses Sinking
Zeilin, One of Escort, in
Fog Near Seattle.
SEATTLE. Wash. July 27. (By
Associated Press.)——President Hard-
ing and his official party returned to
the continental United States from
their visit to Alaska and Vancouver
and their alslp narrowly escaped sink.-
ing the demroyer Zeilln. one of the
escort ships which. blinded by fog
and battling with'strong currents in
the channeh off Port Townsend was
thrown off its course and into the
path of the navy transport {fender-
son bearing the chief executive. The
destroyer was seriously damaged and
when the Henderson antinued its
way the destroyer was left listing
heavily to port. a. hole torn into its
side. and three of it s er ships
holding fast with tow lines.
.Offlcers on the‘ bridge when firs
ip collided give.full credit-so the
commanding the We.
which they declared averted even
more serious damage. According to
witnesses. the destroyer was first
sighted crossing the transport's bow
in a position to be rammed amidship
and too close to avoid a collision.
Captain Buchanan‘s ship also was
laboring against tide. smothered by
the fog. and running slowly ‘bead
with fog horns open. One of ‘tbe
Henderson's pilots. familiar with the
waters. said Captain Buchanan's or-
ders were given in advance of his
and caused the ship's engines to be
reversed to full speed astern. throw-
ing the bow off its wurse and. in the
grip of the tide, swinging it to a
degree sufficient to prevent it from
crashing squarely into the side of the
destroyer."
The rado telephones of the Ben-
derson were immediately put into use,
summoning the other destroyers. The
Corry was the first to respond and
reported that the crippled vessle -had
listed badly to port. but no casualties
had resulted. Later word said the
Zeilin had been beached near Port
Townsend.
The president had not left his cabin
when the collision occured and few
of the Henderson's passengers knew
of the accident until some time later.
There was no alarm sounded and no
confusion. Some had not heard the
collision when the Henderson. several
hours later. steamed into Seattle har-
bor and revealed in the distance the
anchor. their .crews manning the rails
and full dress pennants waving in
colorful effect across the blue waters.
President and Mrs. Harding had
taken their places on the flying
bridge for the review and both de-
clared their enthusiasm for the scene
before them. To their left end and
well in advance were the battleships.

members of the arm of Miller and
Tracey. property owners in Main
street. both came out emphatically in
favor of the Main street widening
when interviewed by an Evening Sen-
tinel reporter today. Both men are
heartily in favor of the meeting of
property holders to find a solution for
the widening of the thoroughfare.
"Of course ,we are in favor of
widening Main street. said Mr. Miller.
"We always have been. It will mean
a bigger Norwaik and a better Nor-
walk. It will help the city's business.
The reason the project was vetoed
was because of dissathfaction with the
assessed benefits and damages. A gen.
eral meeting of the Main street prop-
erty owners may overcome this dis.
satisfaction. Some solution may be
found at such a meeting that will
meet with genetal public approval.
It must be done. The longer we wait
the more it will cost.
Mr. Miller spoke along the same
lines.
“We have always wanted Kain
street‘wldened." said Mr. Miller. "We
are willing to do our share. We aren't
worrying about losing a. few feet of
land in the front of our store. We
feel. however. that we should be re-
con paused for re tbsfront
at 0st, mum which’ a. nee-sue
iseniyuir. Wewlllbegaldtotaks
port in a meeting of property much
in on. effort to solve the problem." .
Many suggestions to push the pro]-
ec ttlirougn were made to the Senti-
nel reporter today. That the demand
for the widening is wide-spread was
shown by the inquiries at the Senti-
ael's uptown office this morning.
Hero is an improvement everybody
seems to feel should be made with
so much enthusiasm for a public
work a solution will no doubt be
found over the week-end so that the
property owners along Main street
can go to the Common Council with
Just. as definite and as good a propo.
sition as was offered for the widen-
ing of \l‘ashington street. .
One suggestion Worthy of consid-
eration was made by a prominent
reaitor. The sugestion pertains to
the slashing off of a. foot and half of
sidewalk on either side of Main
street. It was pointed out that the
cost of this method of widening
would be small. not more than five
or six thousand dollars. While it
wouldn't provide permanent relief. it
would certainly relieve traffic con~
gestion to a large extent. The side-
walk, it was further pointed out. was
wide enough on both sides of the
street to stand narrowing, without
inconveniencing pedestrains.‘
