Coroner Investigates. The coroner was questioning vari- ous persons whose identity was not revealed and the police said they had nothing to give out indicating that more information should be available at the Springfleld end of the case. They said they had no trace of the car in which werg the men who did the shooting. No one had turned in the registry numbers of the machine and they say they have a very meagre description of it. Coroner Mix will hold another hear- ing this afternoon. Wounded Man Held. Marvici's body has been sent to Waterbury and John Musolino, his cousin, who kept a poolroom in Wa- terbury, has been placed in the coun- ty jail. The latter was in the car with Marvici and was slightly wound- ed. The police said that the homicide was simply another incident in a bootleggers' feud, involving men in Waterbury, New Haven, Bridgeport and Springfield No Witnesses Known.

(By Associated Press)-—A basis for a settiement of the strike of the railway shopmen was considered today by the general policy commfttee of the shop crafts B. M. Jewell, head of the railway em- ployes department of the American Federation of Labor, announced at the conclusion of the morning session. Agreement Likely. Jewell’s brief statement was the first public acknowledgment that a strike settlement basis had been pre- sented to the policy committee not- | withatanding many rumors and re- ports concerning settlement plans. He however, would give no indication of what the plan‘was and asked that speculation concerning it be dropped in order not to interfere with the " ommittee's discussions.

Wilkerson today deferred hearing on the motion of attorneys for the| rail strike leaders for modification of the temporary restraining order‘ pending completion of the govern-| ment’s efforts to show that the dor- inant purpose of the alleged conspir- acy is the destruction of intersmte commerce. Citing the court decision in the| Coronado Coal case the lumber deal- ers’ case and the Patton corner pros- ecution, Judge Wilkerson said the question raised by the government's | aMegation was a vital one and should | be settled before the request for modification of the present order can be acted on | Objects To Article. | Donald R. Richberg, attorney for | B M. Jewell and John Scott, tnkP leaders, interrupted the hearing to demand of the government attorneys whether a statement which he brand- ed *“criminally libelous'” printed in morning papers as coming from At- torney Gen. Daugherty's office, had been given out by Mr. Daugherty or his asgociates. The statement was a resume of the | list of murders and other crimes growing out of the strike in | court yesterday. | Judge Wilkerson sald he had not seen the statement but would read the copy produced from the Chicago Tribune by Mr. Richberg and pass on it later. The strikers' attorney said | man was a good one considering this was accomplished while both cars presumably were going at fair speed. The wounds were made by a caliber revolver. It is sald that the Springfield | Union of July 4 contained an article | relating to Marvici being in a similar shooting case only that he escaped serious injury. It would appear that he was a marked man from this and somebody evidently was determined to “get him." It is presumed John Musolini can furnish valuable testi- mony when he is ready to talk. |Stratford Woman “Elected” For Lack of Opposition Stratford, Sept. 12.—As none others will contest the town's seats in the lower branch of the next general as- sembly, the nomination of Miss Helen Lewis, wife of Leroy Lewls, and | Charles E.

There were gun- shot wounds in the right temple and top of the head. He came to Norwalk from Texas some three years ago and according to a statement given out by his fam- fly today was “engaged in industrial | and oll enterprises in Texas.” Henry had been {ll for some little time and went out for the first time yesterday. Mrs. Henry add her daughter re- turned to their home last night and were unable to find him. A search party found him dead. Medical Examiner Samuel H. Hunt- ington after examining the body re- fused to state whether the death was accidental orssuicidal. It was known that experts from life insurance com- panies in New York were called to Cannondale today to - determine whether death was accidental or not. The family's statement said that Henry met his death while wood- chuck hunting,” due to an accidental discharge of his shotgun.” It is known that Henry was quite wealthy. Henry was graduated from Yale in 1894. OPERATION UNNECESSARY Favorable Conditon of Mrs. Harding Reported—Crisis Been Passed.

The Thoms family is well known to some of the old time residents. For many years the senior Thoms con- ducted a blacksmithing establishment on Church street, near the entrance to Corbin place, The candidates for nomination as governor has been one of the leading lawyers of the state for a number of years and has been active in demo- cratic politics, though he has spurned numerous opportunities to hold pub- lic office. He has been waited on by delegations in an effort to place him in the race for mayoralty honors at Waterbury and was also sought at cne time for corporation counsel. Since the local delegation to the state convention has not been in- structed in favor of any candidate, it is not improbable political observ- ers say, that the Hardware city's sup- port will be directed to Thoms. The presence of a former local man at the head of a ticket would greatly enhance the chances of Joseph M.
