But in reality we have the

the number of ships or the
number of guns that counts
SO much as the thickness of the

CoNFIscATING COAL.

The Southern railroads are eyerting
every effort to rush their coal ship
ments and in some sections a coal fam
inc almost exists. Superintendent Dod-
son, of the Southern's Transportation
Department, Is quoted as saying in a
letter to n coal merchant n short time
age that there was not more than one
days coal supply on any division Of
the system. and that the. mines had
not been filling the orders of the rail-
roads for fuel in a satisfactory man
ner. He also stated that it would be
necessary for the railroads to confis-
cate the entire output Of the mines un-
til they had ten days supply on
hand.
If this were not done, then the rail-
roads would be compelled to suspend
operations and thus stall all shipments
OF coal to any point.
Besides, the roads were suffering
from famine in the supply of coal
cars, and that while the rates were adj
vanced, the demand has in no manner
decreased. but on the contrary, has
shown an increase.
