STEPS BEING TAKEN TO GIVE EVERY HOME AT LEAST SOME COAL Gunnison Can Call Directly Upon Shippers to Supply Deliveries in Large Lots Stopped. Two of the most important moves thus far made for seeing that all Brooklynites still without coal are assured of an initial supply in a very short time were announced today by Fuel Administrator Frederic E. Gunnison. Under the first, already put into execution, local dealers are now making deliveries of coal to householders in one and two-ton lots and to apartment houses in five and ten-ton lots.

The order granting domestic consumers a one-third delivery of their requirements has been indefinitely suspended. There will be no further deliveries of large amounts of coal until the Fuel Administrator has satisfied himself that every home in the borough has at least a small supply against the coming of winter. The second move of the local Fuel Administration, also directed to this end, has been to win from the Antracite Distribution Committee a concession of far-reaching benefit. The concession provides that Mr. Gunnison may call directly upon shippers in New York for shipments of coal to dealers here who are behind in their supply.

Heretofore, the local Fuel Administration had no power to direct where shipments were to go. The Anthracite Committee had a basic rule under which dealers were required to get their coal from the shippers. with whom they had formerly business and could get no more than the amount which they purchased in 1916. They might have orders far in excess of the orders in 1916 and they might be called upon by the Local Fuel Administration to supply a far greater territory, but nevertheless they could not go outside their regular circle of shippers and they could not have more than their allotment. The new ruling of the Anthracite Committee, for which Mr.

Gunnison has been fighting for months, changes all this. The Fuel Administrator finds. for example, that a dealer in a certain district hasn't a fair percentage of the coal being shipped and because some dealers in his district have gone out of business, is called upon to supply two or three times as many customers as formerly. Instead of a lot of red tape proceeding. Mr.

Gunnison now sends directly to a shipper the word that he is to supply this particular dealer with such and such all amount of coal. "It means great deal toward getting coal to Brooklyn just where it is most needed." said Mr. Gunnison. "And I am very glad to say that we have received assurances of some extra coal to he delivered within a few days. This is to go to the dealers who have not received much proportionately as some others.

It is going to fill up the gaps. Brooklyn's coal situation has improved tremendously within the last week or so by reason of these things, and we can now face the winter with a deal more of assurlance. We have gotten them awak. ened to Brooklyn's needs. Indeed, we have gotten them stirred up.

"This doesn't mean that we are out of the woods by any means. It simply means that conditions are better, and I want to emphasize urgency of strictest economy on the part of all users of coal. i "Regarding the reduction in deliveries I wish to point out that it is A necessity for all householders to have at least some coal. I am confident that every order now, on the books of Brooklyn dealers is going to receive attention in a very short time. The dealers will go right through the list in these small-lot deliveries." MISS STEPHENSON TAKES UP NEW JOB Expects to Take Few Days to Get Bearings as Borough Secretary.

Miss Sarah Stephenson, well known in Brooklyn through her eleven years practice of law and her public activities, walked into Borough Hall at noon today to assume her newly acquired duties as secretary of the Borough of Brooklyn. Miss Stephenson returned yesterday from Washington, where she has been engaged in the capacity of confidential assistant to the War Trade Board since last July. At that time she gave up her practice to enter the of her country. When Borough President Riegelmann notiservice, tied her last Saturday a week ago of her appointment to the present position, it became a question, she stated this morning to an Eagle representative, of where her services, would be more effective. She matter 1p with the Washington authorities, and after due consideration it was decided to release her for the secretaryship.

Miss Stephenson is the first woman to hold such a position in New York Citv. "I expect to spend a few days getting my bearings," said Miss Stephenson, "and then I shall be ready to swing full tide into the work. As I understand it, I shall have to attend a great many meetings and take secretarial charge of local boards, improvement boards and so In response to a question whether she thought a woman had any particular fitness, as such, for the position, Miss Stephenson said: have many times expressed my opinion that there should be no distinctions made in public appointments and elections on the grounds of sex. In this field, however, it is possible that a good many complaints directed against abuses of living conditions will be made to a woman by women who would hesitate to carry them 10 man. Miss Stephenson came to Brooklyn from Toronto, in 1900.

She studied at the Brooklyn Law School. supporting herself meanwhile by working as bookkeeper for a large manufacturing concern. She WAX the first woman lawyer to open all independent. law office in Brooklyn. She became naturalized in December, 1905.

JUROR ILL; KENYON CASE IS POSTPONED Court Warns Talesmen Against Outside Opinions Hogan, Washington Lawyer, Preparing Surprise? The Spanish influenza caused the postponement today' until Wednesday of the trial of C. Kenyon Company and its six employees, indicted for conspiring to defraud the Government by foisting defective raincoats on the Quartermaster's Department. Federal Judge Thomas Ives Chatfield announced from. the bench that Juror No.

10, Charles W. Anderson of 1058 Union is ill of the "flu." The Court said that he was taken ill Saturday noon and that his physician had communicated the intelligence to the court this morning' that he may be fit for jury work again tomorrow. In order to avoid inconvenience to the witnesses, the court decided, after a conference with Special Prosecutor Isaac Oeland and Chief Counsel Frank J. Hogan of the defense, to put the case over until Wednesday. Assistant United States Attorney Charles J.

Buchner, who is helping Prosecutor Oeland, said today that the Government will conclude its case Wednesday. Inspector Gustave Brodek, William Schneider and Ike Schneider, it is expected, will be called to of approval made for them and Intell more about the counterfeit stamp spector Frank Tabosky by the Kenyon Company. Before the court today announced the postponement, warned the jury against being influenced by anything except the record. Judge Chatfield said that his attention had been called to newspaper reports of the trial. The Court declared that the jury should not read the "opinions" of "others" in the case and declared that the repots were not "stenographic" reports of what witnesses said.

This was the second time Judge Chatfield saw fit to speak to the jury, and his action caused more comment. Last Friday afternoon the court declared that he had been informed that certain jurymen were talkative. Judge Chatfield then warned of the possibility of a mistrial. He instructed the jury to keep apart from spectators, witnesses and counsel at the trial. The presence in the case of Frank J.

Hogan recalls the meteoric career 0 fthis lawyer from Washington. But a few years back Mr. Hogan was a stenographer in the office of the quartermaster at the Capitol. Then he began the study of law. Admitted to the bar he rose, it seemed, in a day from a beginner to one of the best lawyers in the District of Columbia.

One prominent lawyer from whom Mr. Hogan won much practice committed suicide. The confident bearing of Mr. Hogan, despite the damaging evidence that has been introduced. revealing the sharp Kenyon company and its employees, has given rise to the report that he has a surprise defense which he will produce in his effort to acquit his clients.

Just what his cards are could not be learned but it was reported that he will base part of his defense on the contention that unior labor "framed up" the concern and the employees because C. Kenyon Company has an "open shop." MRS. G. H. McKELWAY DIES (Special to The Eagle.) Westfield, N.

Telephone to Main TODAY IS THE FIRST REGISTRATION DAY; WOMEN TAKE PART Political Leaders Expect That Voting List of Borough Will Be Doubled. Today is the first day of registration. Polling places open from 5 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Women as well as men are to register.

If you do not register you cannot vote. Today is the first day of registration for the general election on November 5, when a Governor, State officers and Representatives in Congress will be chosen. There will be six days of registration this year. Today, tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday the polls will be open from 5 o'clock in the afternoon until 10:30 o'clock in the evening. On Saturday the polls will be open from, 7 o'clock in the morning until 10:30 o'clock in the evening.

Election officials today urged the men and women to go to the polling places in their election distriots early in the week, stating that although the number of polling places had been largely increased, the influx of new women voters was expected to be so heavy that if any large proportion of the voters waited until the last call it would jam the polls to such an extent as to cause serious confusion. The political leaders look for the biggest increase in the voting strength of Brooklyn and the entire city that has ever been experienced in the history of the Nation as a result of the enfranchisement of the women. This is the first registration for a general election since the women have been given the vote, and the general prediction among politicians that it will almost double the voting population, In the six days of registration last fall total of 253,689 men registered in Brooklyn and 695,999 throughout the entire city. Last spring at the special one day registration neid for wom- en in order to make them eligible vote at the primaries 114,026 women went to the polls. Public Service Commissioner Kracke, chairman of the Republican Advisory Committee, which is in command of the Whitman campaign in Brooklyn, said today: "It is my present belief that the six days of registration will show a total of from 400,000 to 450,000 voters in Brooklyn.

Of course we must take into consideration a loss of nearly 90,000 representing the soldiers who are in the army. In addition, reports have reached us to the effect that there is. a material proportion of women eligible to register and vote who are averse to exercising their new rights, and further, we must consider the fact that the newspapers have not given the usual publicity to political questions because of the pressure of war news and the space necessary for the news of the Liberty Loan drive. But if women assume to the full the responsibility that has been placed upon them by the vote, the registration should approach the figures I have given." Democratic County Leader McCooey's comment was this: "Ordinarily in the gubernatorial year we should exceed the figure of the men's registration of last year, but owing to absence of thousands of voters in the Army this is problematical this year. I do expect, however.

that the number of women who will register this fall during the six days, will at least double the 114,026 figure of their registration on the single day last May. And on this basis I look for a total registration in excess of 400,000 in Brooklyn." The organization machinery of both parties, while they have practically abandoned campaigning for candidates during the period of the Liberty Loan drive, have sent out much literature instructing men and women how and when and where to register. Such work has been particularly active I among the women. Particular attention has been given to explaining in the qualifications necessary. The Election Law provides that a native born.

man or woman, must be 21 years of age, a resident of the State for a year, of the county four months and of the election district 30 days. In addition. to these qualifications naturalized citizens must have obtained their last papers 90 days previous to the election date and women who become citizens by marrying men who are citizens must have lived in this country for five years previous to the election date in order to be eligible. PROBE BREWERS' METHODS Ge Washington, October 7-Attorney General Gregory today notified Senator Overman of North Carolina, chairman the State Committee investigating brewers' activities in politics and loans to Arthur Brisbane for purchase of the Washington Times, that he would submit to the committee a large number of documents obtained by the Federal District Attorney at Pittsburg in connection with prosecutions there in 1915.

Eno: Mahan vs, Goldberger. John B. White: Clark vs. Bordecker, Frederick White Shepard. The Woman Voter Miss Amy Wren, a lawyer since 1908, is vice-chairman of the First Assembly District Republican Committee.

She was for seven years clerk in the United States District Attorney's office and has been a lecturer on law problems concerning women. MISS AMY WREN For some years she was president of the Brooklyn Law School Alumnae Association and was elected president of the recently organized Brooklyn Women's Bar Inc. Miss Wrens' latest honor is her election as police reserve captain. Miss Amy Wren gives to Mrs. Rosalie Loew Whitney the credit' for organizing one of the largest and most efficient political clubs for women in Brooklyn.

The club, called the Women's Division of the First Assembly District Republican Club, numbers 150 paid members. Miss Wren says: "The men's club carries many more names, but comparatively few of these pay dues. The men admit that the women's meetings are much more interesting and inspiring than the men's, and that the women take a more vital interest in politics. For all this I consider Mrs. Whitney to be responsible." Have you registered today? Miss Mary Garrett Hay, chairman of the New York City Woman Suffrage party, urges women to register and enroll.

"Make the registration booths shrines of patriotism and help win the war," is her plea. "Let us in New York City, because of our numbers and enthusiasm, win the AllAmerican Women Voters' Championship." A veteran political campaign manager gives this tip to the women voters: "Hammer the name of your candidate into the minds of the voters until it is indelibly impressed. Never mention the other fellow. Why advertise an opposing candidate? Every knock given an opponent is a boomerang that becomes a boost for him." Miss Sarah Stephenson, the new Borough Secretary, is on the job today. Throughout the borough the women are expressing approval of the Borough President's choice.

It is the second appointment of a woman to an important civic position, Miss Helen McCormick, Assistant District Attorney, being the first. Now that both political parties are represented by women in the City Government, the trial of ability is on, and the women feel sure that the results will warrant an extension of such appointments as suitable positions become available. men are taken for war service.ore The "Hallelujah meeting" of the Tenth A. D. Republicans on Saturday night at the club house, 175 Oxford was one of the biggest successes of the Liberty Loan campaign.

Mr. Morris of the Loan Speakers' Bureau, based his talk on the poem "Do Your All, Not Do Your Bit." No subscriptions were solicited, but during the meeting Senator Murphy outside and came back with $3,000 in pledges. A report of $6,400 was received as a "good beginning" from the committee. Miss Helen McCormick, chairman of the Women's Committee, of the Tenth A. D.

Republican Organization, called a meeting yesterday afternoon of those women who will act as watchers at the polls. Instructions were given and badges distributed. Miss McCormick and a committee will tour the district every night to supervise the work of the women at the polls. Mrs. Bernard B.

Christ, vice president of the Unity Republican Club, has been appointed leader of the Twentieth A. D. by the Kings County Women's Whitman Committee. Mrs. Christ has called at a which meeting many of the of the women Republican for tocandidates will speak for the Liberty Loan.

Look the Opportunities Over. G.O.P. IN QUANDARY OVER SCHOENECK'S INTENTION TO RESIGN Effort to Be Made to Induce Him to Reconsider Democrats Making Capital of Situation. Governor Whitman and the other big G. O.

P. State chieftains are seeking to dissuade Lieutenant Governor Schoeneck from his announced intenof resigning, even if re-elected, in order to enter Camp Taylor, Kentucky, to train for a commission in the army. The announcement of Schoeneck, who is a for re-election on the Whitman Republican ticket, has seriously shaken the Governor's campaign plans. 50 acute is the situation that the Governor has come to New York to take up with the party managers the Schoenecl: question and a series of important conferences have been held in which Public Service Commissioner Kracke, State Chairman Glynn, Justice Ingraham and other close advisers of the Governor have participated, but so far the only possible solution that has been suggested is the proposal to dissuade Schoeneck from his intentions. latter determined upon his withdrawal from the State Government, it is declared, without consultng the Governor, or any of his other running mates on the State ticket, or the more important State leaders.

If he had, it is declared, an effort would have been made then to stop him, or at least to persuade him to postpone his announcement until after the campaign. Coming as it did right at the beginning of the canvass it laid the manager sopen to serious embarasment, which the Democrats are already capitalizing. The chief of these is the fact that it puts the party in the position of running a blank for Lieutenant Governor. The voter knows that when he puts a cross opposite Schoeneck's name he is not voting for the man that is to hold the job, even if he gets the most votes. The place will be held by a temporary incumbent, the president pro tem.

of the Senate, who is elected by the members of that body. What makes the point still sharper is the fact that among constitutional lawyers there is a disagreement as to whether the man chosen temporarily would be eligible at all to act as the successor to the Governor in case of his death, resignation or incapacity, or even temporary absence from the State. The effect of this, the Republicans admit, will be to drive many votes to Harry W. Walker, the Democratic candidate for Lieutenant Governor, and if the race happens to be close this might easily elect even though all the other Democratic State candidates met defeat. Proposed Resignation Complicates Matters Inside of Party.

If the effect of the Schoeneck announcement extended only to the campaign, the G. O. P. Chieftains think the problem would not be so serious. They would capitalize the tact of Schoeneck's sacrifice of public honor and office to serve the nation, where loss of his own life might be the only reward.

But it has brought to a focus the contest for President Pro Tem of the Senate between Senators George F. Thompson of Niagara, and Henry Walters of Syracuse. Coming now whatever bitterness in engendered by it will have its reflex on the unity of the party in the campaign. And since the contention between them is strong the results threatened The Governor is being urged to worry the leaders. step in and decide a move that would weaken his support from the friends of whoever he decided against.

It has been suggested that the duties of the office of president pro tem be divided. Heretofore, this officer has been acting Lieutenant Governor in the absence of that and floor leader of the party as well. The plan proposed is to give one man the job of presiding over the Senate, and the other the floor leadership, and the scheme as it now stands. would make Thompson the presiding officer--the temporary Lieutenant Governor--and give Walters the floor leadership. This arrangement is said to appeal strongly to Governor Whitman, but it has raised a big fuss in Syracuse and among friends of Walters all over the State.

Walters comes from Syracuse, and the point is made that since the post to be filled is being given up by a Syracuse man, Walters, another man from the same city should get it. MRS.
