COAL WILL GO STILL HIGHER
seven Dollars Ton May Be Reached by
the First of October.

the First of October.
Indications point to hard coal going
up to 81 q ton by October l and where
and when the limit will be reached, no
one appears to know. 1t is said that
| it is already selling at 81 a ton in Chi
cago. A retail dealer stated this morn
| ing that consumers have delayed laying
| in their supply for the winter and it
won't be very long now before naviga-
ton closes. When this happens and
there can be no more coal shipments
from the east, prices will go sky high
with rush. On account Of the de-
crease of orders this year the dealers
have not laid in very large supplies
and when the demand comes with cold
weather, there may not be enough coal
to go around, which will certainly mean
high prices. Continuing he said: "The
output of the anthracite coal beds is
being restricted this year by the east
ern men who control it. They are
said to have lost about 81, 100000 last
year by the coal rate war and this year
they are determined to make that
back. They have limited the prOduc-
ton to such an amount that there will
always be slight shortage. This of
course enables them to fix the price at
whatever figure they please" He
thought that it was a shame to charge
the people such high prices and he be-
lieved most of the dealers felt the same
way.

The whole civilized world has been

Not since the time OF the famine in

provinces of that country were dying
for the want of bread has the heart OF
the people been so deeply stirred as at

people of Armenia.
Their terrible prosecutors are unsatis-
fled by the cruelties OF Sassoun, Dalvor-

outrages upon the people OF that OPP

Caspian sea on the east. Its western
boundary is about 600 miles east of
Constantinople. 1t is chiefly a table
land, 1000 feet above the level OF the sea
the highest point is Mt. Ararat.
