All previous records on the New Haven railroad were broken during May and June in the number of cars of all-rail coal handled by the com- pany. In May the New Haven handled 17.168 cars of hard and soft coal all- 12fl. This is the largest number of all- rail coal cars handled in any one month in the New Haven’s history. The chances of any ihdividual who registered in Connecticut under the selective draft of being called into service on the first draft are a little under one in 14. This is based on the figures of the provost marshal gen- eral's office, which, placing the esti- mate of the population of the state at 1,719.625. calls upon Connecticut to supply 18,817 men for the army. Search is being made by officidls of the United 'States submarine base on the Thames and the police for a mys- terious automobile containing a man and a woman which appeared near the base Saturday morging.

As soon as the lists are received they wiil be posted where they may be seen , by anyone who wishes to ascertain the place his number occupies in the long column. Dr. L. F. LaPierre, the local - ining physician, said Sunday t that it was possible that examinations will start the latter part of this week or the first of next week.

This re-examining board will examine all those persons who Dr. LiPalerre finds | gyllnfly a ifled, In cases where . LaPierre examines a drafted man and finds him physically sound no re- examination will be required. In cases where both examining physicians find the man before them physically dii qualified and the board concurs in such finding, he shall be discharged from the draft and a certificate set- ting forth the conditions of his dis- charge be issued to him.
