Price of Coal soaring in Europe

New York, Sept. 8.-The price of coal
is soaring in Europe. and not enough
ships can be had on this side OF the
ocean to carry cheap coal to supply the
demand. This is adding considerably
to the operating expenses of the big
steamship companies, as the swift lin
ers burn from 400 to $50 tons Of coal
daily. Coal is worth from $3.50 to So a
ton more in Europe than here. AS a
result the liners are carrying on the
outward voyage enough coal to take
them over and part of the way back.

are still supporting him, need not be dis
cussed. Mr.. Nichols is in any event the
receiver of the stolen goods and the
question is not so much whether M.
Nichols shall be punished as whether
such gross and shameless frauds shall
be endorsed at the election or reb6ked.
1t Is true that the registration in the
First ward is about 100 larger than 1t
ever was before, and in the Second ward
about $50 larger, but the Second ward
has very often been a Democratic ward
and the Republican majority in the
First ward is not very large, so that not
more than a half or little more than a
half of the additional registration can be
considered to be Republican registra-
tion.
Some effort Is made to gauge the Re
publican vote Of TIE First ward by the
election vote received by Charles Curtis.
This is obviously absurd because every
body knows the extreme popularity of
Charles Curtis and everybody knows
that he has at election received a con-
siderable Democratic and Populist vote
from his neighbOrS. Democrats and Pop
ulists may lawfully vote for a popular
neighbor at an election but they may
not lawfully vote as they did at a Re
publican primary.

big banner was stretched in front
Of the stand across to 208 Fifth avenue
bearing President McKinley's words to
the late ex-Nayor Strong: I'VE know

Colonel Roosevelt reached the stand
exactly at II o'clock. Cheers went up
along the line when he appeared He
stood in his carriage and waved his
hat right and left to the shouting
throngs on the curbs. The governor with
his escort hurried to the place on the
stand. A big bunch of roses was handed
to the governor.
The governors daughter arrived at
this time and took a. seat near her
father, who discarded the chairs provid-
ed for him and the other reviewing Off
GERS and stood.
BY this time the first band, playing an
inspiring air, reached the stand Be
hind it was the wholesale dry goods
men. The vacant seats in the stands
had rapidly filed up and the long re-

menced.
The men who filed past the stand in
a quick step, barred their heads, despite
the dripping rain. and the governor in
compliment did the same

Roosevelt.
The continuous cheering. mingled with
the music of the bands, made din at
the reviewing stand that drowned all
other sounds A few of the paraders
carried umbrellas and these were gem
orally lowered when the governors box
was being passed.
The comparatively narrow opening in
the companies and some of the lines
were thrown out of alignment. Each
parader wore in his buttonhole a. carna-
ton, out of compliment to President
Mckinley whose favorite flower it is.
Some of the salutations that greeted the
governor amused him immensely and he
invariably rewarded the men in line with
a hearty response.
It was exactly u o'clock when the last
of the wholesale dry goods men-the
largest body of marcheTs in the parade
passed the reviewing stand. The rain
had evidently kept many men from par
ticipating in the big demonstration.
The central dry goods division, mar
shalled by Gen. Joseph W. Congdon,
reached the stand at 1915 O'Clock, after
the cIothiers' legion and the merchant
tailors' sound money league had passed.
The marshaIS aides carried handsome
blue streanerS and won much applause
Like the other divisions, this oI'ganiza-

cheers. "Hurrah for Roosevelt. First

hearts of his countrymen,' was the Slo-

Wounded Man Refuses to Have
Man Who Shot Him Arrested.

Joe Buchanan, a colored man living at
1913 Monroe street, was shot last night
by Albert Jordan, also colored. The
bullet entered the hip and made a pain
ful but not dangerous wound.
The men had been to the show and
were returning home when they got into
a fight. Buchanan attacked Jordan
who drew his revolver and fired twice.
One shot missed and the other took
effect in the hip. Buchanan did not re-
port the affair to the police until this
morning and when the officers went to
the house they found him sitting in
chair with a lot of bloody rags on the
wound.
He would not tell how the fight oc-
CURED and said that he would not
prosecute Jordan. Jordan bears good
reputation, but Buchanan is a bad man.
He was in a fight several weeks ago
with Jerry Merriweather and was cut
on the shoulder, but refused to make a
complaint. His home is in Missouri and
he promised the police that he would
go there at once.
