SUBSTITUTE FOR COAL.
Plenty Of Neglected Fuel Material That
MAY he Made Into Rriouettes

WAsHtSGroS, Dec. 23.-The coal famine
in the nited States has drawn the atten-
ton of many persons to the subject of uti-
liZing the hitherto wasted or neglected
fuel materials. These materials areabundant
in this country. Consul General Mason,
writing TO the State Department from
Berlin, says that correspondence has been
received there during the last month from
nearly every State and Territory In the
Union making further inquiries regarding
the machinery and process employed in
Germany for making fuel briquettes from
Ignite, peat and coal dust. Mr.. Mason adds:
There are in New England. western
New York, Michigan. Illinois, Wisconsin,
Oregon and Washington vast beds Of peat
which have been thus far hardly explored
There are in the Dakotas and the Gulf
States large deposits OF lignit e and material
midway in character between Ignite and
peat, and there are In all the coal-mining
States enormous quantities of bituminous
dust and anthracite culm, all of which may,
by the employment OF modern machinery
and processes, be added to the fuel supply
of our country.
AS has been stated In these reports,
this is an industry In which the first tenta-
tive efforts made in the United States have
generally failed, but which has been de-
veloped in Germany. France and Belgium
by long. careful, scientific experiment
into an important and successful system
OF production. There Ia no reason why
any American operator or mine owner
should risk dollar liz vague or hazardous
experiments: he has only to ascertain by
expert inquiry what his crude material
contains. whether or not it il adapted to
profitable conversion into briquettes. and.
II so, by what process and machinery II can
be most effectively treated"
latest inquiries on this subject and eimpli-
flying TO some extent the practical PROPOSE
ton. Consul General Mason gives q full
description Of the best methods Of briquette
manufacture in Germany. His report,
with Photographic illustrations. ha, been
published by the State Department.

DIR. GRASSLAND RECALLED.
scandal In Our Legation In Liberia ina,
nesultetl In Q shooting Anrax.

WARRINGTON. Dec. 23.-The shooting
ARRAY which occurred in the United States
legation at Monrovia, Liberia, on Oct. Z
between DIR. John II. A. Grassland of Mis-.
souri,. the American Minister there, and
Thomas j. X. Faulkner OF Brooklyn, N. V,
ms resulted in official action which amounts
practically to the recall OF DIR. Grassland
Leave OF absence has been granted him
by the State Department, with the under
standing that upon his arrival in the United
states he will tender his resignation. The
leave was extended by the Department
In order that DR.. Grassland should not be
compelled to pay the expenses Of his home
ward voyage.
Both Grassland and Faulkner are negroes,
When Grassland reached Monrovia early
this year, he rented part of a house which
Faulkner had leased and in which he re-
sided with his bride. The owner Of the
property preferred Grassland IA the lessee
and turned the lease over to him. Under
the new arrangement the Faulkners con-
tinued to reside In the building, which
became the American legation. As sub
tenants OF Grassland.
The reports made TO the State Department
about The trouble between them indicat ed
that II arose through the transfer Of the
lease from Faulkner to Grassland. In one
report. however, II was said that the differ
ences hetween the two men arose over the
attentions OF the Minister to Mrs. Faulkner
All the parties to the affair were APP
parently the best Of friends on the Sunday
preceding the shooting, as the Faukners
and DR.. Grassland went to church together
Or. Crossland in response to a request from
the State Department for an eXplana, ion
OF the shooting. said that he shot Faulkner
in self-defencc after Faulkner had attac keti
him with a razor Other charges were
preferred against the Minister by people in
Monrovia. james Robert Spurgeon Of
kentucky, the secretary Of the American
legation, alleged that Grassland was his
enemy. and kept a revolver on his desk
while Spurgeon was in his Office, and the
messenger Of the legation charged that
the Minister had spanked him.
In Wow Of all the circumstances in the
case tho State Department. without passing
upon its merits, came to the conclusion
that DR.. CroSslands usefulness to this
country in Liberia had ended and that
his recall was necessary. George ". Ellis
of Kentucky was recently appointed to
succeed Spurgeon AZ secretary of the
legation. He wrote to the State Depart
ment that Grassland had brought him to
Liberia under the promise that he would
be appointed in Surgeons place. and com
planned that the Minister had not kepthis
