Members of the police auto- justice and substantial prison sen- tences for those couvicted will check the increase in the number of cars taken. While many of the cars ere taken by thieves to be resold elsewhere, a majority of them are taken by joy-riders. The joy-riders fall into two classes, those who simply take a ride and abandon the ‘“borrowed” car, and others who end their joy-ride with a ruthless stripping of everything portable and detachable on the car. Invoking of provisions of the law | authorizing imposition of prison sen- tences upon both automobile thieves and joy-riders, police believe, would g0 a long way toward breaking up the operations.

COAL DEALERS 10 BE SUBPOENAED Senate Committee Will Di- rect That Books Be Opened to Auditor. In accordance with the decision reached by the Senate District com- mittee yesterday afternoon to go on with {ts inquiry into coal prices pre- vailing in Washington last. Winter, subpoenas are expected to be sent out some time today to a number of deal- ers, directing them to open their books to the committee auditor. The exact information to be asked for in the subpoenas is being put into shape today by H. A. A. Smith of the controller general's office, who has been acting as auditor for the com- mittee. The names of those to whom the subpoenas will be sent have not yet been made known. Senator Capper, chraiman of the committee, said the subpoenas would be returnable some time next week and nothing further is to be done by the committee until that time. The decision to issue subpoenas re- sulted from the report of Auditor Smith, who was instructed by the committee several months ago to en- deavor to obtain figures from a num- ber of Healers that would enable the committe to form general conclusions as to the reasonableness of prices. Mr. Smith reported that he wrote to nine dealers, but that he did not receive any answers from six of them Of the three who replied, one stated that he had opened his books to the United States Coal Commission a few years ago and did not feel that he should be subjected to the same pro- cedure again. The other two stated thelr books were available for stated periods of time. LANDLADY BELIEVES MAN DIED OF FALL Declares He Was Under Influence of Liquor and Was Hurt Two Hours After Fight. Belief that Robert M.

Murphy, 47 years old. in front of their rooming house at 406 Sixth strect, early yesterday morning, and not at the time of 4 previous ex- change of blows, was exp sed by Mrs. Laura Hanson. landlady at the house, today a short time before a coroner's jury met at an inquest to probe the cause of the death. Sergt. Dewey Fortner, United States Marine, of Quantico, a visitor at the house at the time, said he wit nessed the exchange of blows in front of the house, and saw McCormack get up and leave, evidently under the influence of liquor. after he had kicked Murphy. who is a park police- man, in the eye, when Murphy was attempting to eject McCormack from } the house. Mrs. Hanson said that she had be- come alarmed at the condition of Mec- Cormack shortly before midnight Mon- day night when he started to enter the house, and that she appealed to Murphy to restrain him from enter. ing. Murphy did, she said, and there was an exchange of blows, but Sergt. Fortner stated that there was no fall at the time from which a fracture of the skull could have resulted. A neighbor promised to take care of McCormack for the night and started a few houses south with him. At about 2 o'clock, the neighbor having been unable to get McCormack to enter the house and having left him outside. McCormack was seen to have attempted to cross along an areawav near a fence, and to have fallen in the areaway about two feet below the sidewalk level. It was thought he was not serious Iy hurt, and he was cared for at the rooming house until 6:30 o'clock yes- terday morning, when his condition prompted Mrs. Hanson to send for the ambulance. He was taken to Emergency Hospital, where he died. according to physicians, from a frac- tured skull. Police arrested and detained Mur- phy for the inquest on the theory that the exchange of blows had pro- duced a fall resulting in the factured skull. ‘The inquest is being held this after- noon, with Coroner Nevitt presiding.
