UR9DAY AFTERNOON, DECEMEER 28, 1(22. DAILY TIMEMNTERFMEft THOMAEVILLE, QEORQIA 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.

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. Whsleskln Valuable.
