Capt. Robert T. Hurley of the state police was agaln in the city yester- day, having a conference with local police officials. Although he and de- tectives are reticent as to the nature of his business, presumably because of State's Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn’s “gag rule” relative to the subject, it is belleved hot pursuit of the slayer in the Taft murder case is thg cause and an arrest is, police officlals admit, ex- pected soon. It is also admitted that pursuit of the “fire bug,” responsible for terrorizing this city and Hartford during the winter, has not been given up. - HAIROUTS TO COST MORE.
