WEALTHY NEW YORKERS
CANNOT HOARD COAL
Memben of the wealthy colony In
Ulster county, N. Y., hare no more
rifht to hoard fuel than the ordinary
citizen, according to William R. Pep-
kins, fuel administrator for Orange
county, who declares he baa perfected
plan whereby he will get a line on
every pound of coal in Newburgh, N.
Perkins scheme, part qf which Is
secret, involves a Check of all coal
that has been delivered, as well as aQ
that is in the cellars of every wealthy
resident of the section, where so
many of the New York city money
kinys have their residences.
Salted Coal to Aid Poor
The condition was precipitated in
Newburgh through the discovery that
despite the fact that many residents
of the city and surrounding places
o coal at all, the residences of
J. P. Morgan and Robert W. Goclet
had been getting fuel by the carload.
Three carloads were seized come
days ago at the Goelet place and 353
tons on the Morgan estate. This was
confiscated under a state law which
gives the fuel administrator complete
power over all fuel in the state. Then
followed additional discoveries and
nearly 500 tons were taken from
other estates where the owners, by
virtue of their connection with coal
railroad management, were able to
assure delivery in carload lots.

UNDENFEID SENT
BACK TO POLAND
New York, DsfcJw.—Wolfe Linden-
feld, alleged revolutionary agent who
was believed to hold tho koy to solu
tion of tho Wall street explosion mys
tery, yesterday left the United States
as a deportee on the steamship Estonia
nnder circumstances as mysterious as
thoto which surrounded his arrival
month ago from Poland In cus
tody of agents of the Department of
Justice. Why he came here, why he
was aent back, what be told detectives
and investigators who questioned him,
and what light be shed upon the cir
cumstances which led to the explosion
which rocked lower New York one
hour nearly twenty-seven months
ago, were questions which officials ot
the Department of Justice and Immi
gration were unwilling to answer.
Deputy Commissioner of Immigra
tion Landis at Ellis Island said Lind-
enfeld was denied entrance on the
ground that he was likely to become a
public charge.
An officer of the Estonia said Lind-
enfeld was booked ms a passenger for
Warsaw, Poland, by way of Danslg.
Ltndenfeld himself refused to com
ment on his deportation, clinging to
the protective cloak of mystery which
had surrounded him since his arrest
in Warsaw a year ago, when he made
statement in connection with the
Wall street tragedy.
While under arrest in the Polish cap
ital, Lindenfeld told various colorful
stories of widespread communist plota
and described what he alleged <
the story of the Wall street blast. But
his revelations failed to lead to tangi
ble evidence and' radicals hailed him
i a “fakir” and “capitalist” spy.
In February, when Polish police
charged him with fraud, cables from
Warsaw said he retracted his state
ment. He disappeared from the lime
light only to reappear at Ellis Island.
When he was held up at the Immi
gration station he began a hunger
strike which he kept up until deporta
tion proceedings were begun.
