Coats Divergent Opinions Given on Present Fuel Situation. AMENDED ORDER SOUGHT Men's Palm Beach Suits I Preferential Treatment Asked by Public Utilities in Various Sections of Country. "WASHINGTON. July 10. Widely di vergent opinions as to the nation's coal supply were heard by the inter state commerce commission today at its hearing: on the advisability of modifying- its order requiring pref erence be given coal mines east of the Mississippi In the assignment of open-top cars. Some witnesses said the country was experiencing the worst coal shortage in its history, while others declared with equal finality that there was no shortage. The commission was asked both to modify its order, originally issued for a 30-day period ending July 21, so as not to give so much of a, monopoly on cars to the coal mines, and also to make the order more drastic and continue it for longer than 30 days. There was no indica tion by the commission of its probable action. Wisconsin Asks Consideration. Carl Jackson, member of the Wis consin railway commission, urged that the commission amend its order so as to give preference to coal mines having contracts to supply Wiscon sin. Minnesota. North and South Da kota and northern Michigan. The movement of 4000 cars daily to this territory must be had until Novem ber, he asserted, in order "to save the territory from freezing." Agents of public utilities, scattered throughout the eastern part of the country, also asked that preferential treatment be given their companies so that a winter reserve stock might bo accumulated in the next few months. Their contention that a coal short age exists was the opposite of the testimony given by George H. Gush ing, of the American Wholesale Coal association, who said present produc tion was equalling consumption. Mr. Cushing expressed the opinion that a fair price for coal at the mine should be 5.50 a ton, and John Moore, rep resenting the Ohio miners, added that with an adequate car supply the cost would fall to 4. Coal Offered at $13 a Ton. Chairman Clark read into the rec ord a letter written on the station ery of the Reeves Coal & Dock com pany .of Minneapolis, offering to sell coalT already'on the cars and in tran sit, for $13 a ton. Mr. Cushing asked his opinion regarding such prices, re plied: "That is a matter for the de partment of justice." Alarm over the situation because of its effect on Canada was expressed in a letter sent the commission by M. M. Mahoney. secretary of the Canadian war mission. Declaring that central Canada normally was depend ent upon the United States for 17,000, 000 tons of coal annually, he said: "Our government officials are be ginning to fear that we may not get sufficient coal to tide over the winter." "Reduced shipments to Canada thi year," the letter adds, "seem to in dicate that American producers have neglected the long-established Cana dian market to take advantage of the European demand."

TACOMA. Wash., July 10. (Spe cial.) The nomination of James M. Cox as the democratic candidate .for president has aroused special inter est in Tacoma. since his wife, who is the daughter of Thomas P. Blair of Chicago, is a cousin of Mrs. Charles A. Foster of Tacoma. Mrs. Cox is the second wife of the nominee, to whom she was married about three years ago. She was Miss Margaretta Blair, and at the time of her social debut was considered one of the most beautiful girls in Ch4 cago. Several noted artists painted some remarkable portraits of her be fore her marriage to Mr. Cox. Mrs. Cox was educated at Miss Por ter's echool at Farmlngton, Conn., which Mrs. Foster also attended. Sho was one of the very popular and at tractive girls of the school, with a taste for outdoor sports and riding. She was a schoolmate at Farming-ton of Mrs. Richard T. Sullivan of Ta coma. Mrs. Foeter says that her cousin is essentially a home woman, devoted to her husband and children. She has one child, born during the last year, and the three children of Mr. Cox by his former marriage. MUSICIANS TO BANQUET illlllllllllllllilHIlllHllllH Louis Victor Saar, Composer, to .
