tTTTVl MORXIXG OTtECOXIAX, WEDNESDAY, JUL,Y 14, 1920 K COAL GAR PRIDRm EXTENDED 30 DAYSis Commission Makes Effort to ' Solve Transportation. 3-FOLD CHANGE IS MADE o Special Attention Is Given to Speeding Up Deliveries to Northwest District. WASHINGTON". July 13. Extension for 30 days of the order giving pref erential distribution of open top cars to coal mines cast of the Mississippi was drdtred today by the interstate commerce commission, in an effort to salve the coal transportation prob lem. The original order would have expired July 21. Three-fold amendment of the order also was made by the commission, which in a leUer to Daniel Willard, chairman of the advisory committee of the association of railway execu tives. su?sested that the carriers prohibit more than one reconsign lnent of cars, loaded with coal. The amendments of the original order provide: IOuihiirRoe Are Provided. Thr.t railroads must place an em baryo against consignees failing to unload open top cars within 24 hours after delivery. That railroads may assign cars without rep-.rd to existing ratings at the mines so as to provide fuel for current use to public- utilities and public institutions. No special attention was given by the commifcsinn to speeding up the coal movement to the northwest, its letter to Mr. .Villard explaining that we have not thought it proper to at tempt to' deal with this situation by order "until after an attempt has been made by the coal operators and railroad presidents to tolve the ques tion." Operator End Conference.. Announcement of the commission's changes came almost simultaneously with the adjournment of tho coal op erators' conference, which had been attempting for two days to work out a plan for supplying th3 northwest. The plan finally agreed upoji by the operators will be submitted to rail way executives at New York tomor row. Jt proposes that priority be eiven coal and coke shipments over all commodities except food, livestock and perishables, with which the fuel ehall move on a parity. The plan alao demands enforcement of existing prioiity orders "in such manner as may be necessary to sup ply sufficient cars to run fufl time." Operator Adopt Resolutions. The plan of the operators was described by the resolution adopted as assuring "ample coal for all parts of the country," including the fulfill ment of contracts in the northwestern states. As finally adopted, the operators' plan did not provide lor a priority in car supply to mines having con tracts for coal to the northwest." The operators also adopted a reso lution recommending that the inter state commerce commission limit the reconsignment of coal "to the greatest extent possible in order to eliminate existing abuses." er alleged members of the party charged with conuspiracy to over throw the government.

WILD BUFFALO INCREASE HERD OF 15 SEEN IX YELLOW STONE NATIONAL, PARK. 18 Calves Added to Tame Animals in Park, Making Total of Five Hundred. YELLOWSTONE PARK, Wyo. Convincing evidence that the wild buffalo of Yellowstone National park, the last surviving remnant of the great herds which once roamed the western plains, are on the increase, instead of dying out, as was feared. has been obtained in the discovery of a new group in the southeast portion of the park. About 15 animals were observed, evidently a part of the old herd, which it is thought grew so large that some of its members were forced to break away and seek new pasturage. Definite information has been ob tained by park authoritise that there are now more than 100 of the wild buffalo in the park. Formerly there were only about half that number. When discovered, the new herd was within five miles of one of the larg est hotels in the park and a snapshot was obtained of one of the animals. fine bull, probably the first photo graph ever taken of a wild buffalo. Ordinarily wild buffalo are never seen by tourists, and only rarely, by park authorities, even by the rangers who patrol the most remote sections. The appearance of the new herd close to the main lines of travel was be fore the season opened and the an- imals'apparently had been lured down from the mountain fastnesses by the abundance of spring grass on the lower levels. They disappeared into untraveled country as soon as auto mobiles became frequent along the highways. Forty-eight calves have been added this year to the tame buffalo herd of the park, which now has a population of BOO. Part of the tame herd has been placed in corral at Mammoth Hot springs for the benefit of visitors. Labor Demand low. MARSH FIELD, Or., July 13. (Spe cial.)

For 19 years at 27 Avenue de l'Opera, Butterick has maintained a shop in the heart of fashionable Paris, with sales of patterns greater in volume than in any other store in the world.
