One of the outcomes of Mrs. Walkers work as
truant officer has been the establishment or

CAUSE OF SOFT COAL SHORTAGE.
DUE TO THE INABILITY OF THE RAILROADS
TO DISTRIBUTE THE OUTPUT.

The shortage in the supply OF bitumnous coal is
viewed with considerable anxiety by the local trade
The shortage to be due. not to a lack OF
coal In the mines to scarcity of labor, but
rather to the inability Of the soft coal railroads
to distribute the commodity to the Atlantic sea-
board.
A coal dealer yesterday said:
understand that the Pennsylvania Railroad Is
rushing every available coal from the anthracite
to the soft coal fields. That might give this mar
ket more soft coal. In my opinion there are penty
of cars in the bituminous regions but there are
enough locomotives to haul them away: me
present scarcity is likely to prevail all winter L
think that the, railroads alleviate the situation

The supply of hard coal is none too large to meet
