COAL FOR THE POOR.
They Are to Be Supplied Before the
Dealers

New York, Oct. IA plan is said
to have been put into operation at the
meeting of coal road presidents Just held
in this city for the supplying of coal,
first to the jewellers in the tenement dis.
trictS, second to the hospitals and third
to the transportation companies.
According to the Herald the scheme
came up during the weekly discussion
of the miners strike, and the presence
of Robert w. Deforest, who is tenement
house commissioner, president of tine
charity organization society and general
counsel of the Central Railroad of New
Jersey, was that the other officials
might have placed before them the ten
ement dwellers' crying need of fuel in
cold weather.
Mr.. Deforest was listened to atten-
lively. and there was not one of the
dozen present who did not agree that
something must be done.
Before the matter was turned over to
the sales agents of the companies who,
in cooperation with Mr.. Deforest, will
decide on the best possible method of
proceeding with the work, a tentative
plan had been outlined by the meeting.
1t was in effect that the companies
should unite in forwarding to the city
enough coal to serve the desired pur-
pose. Then the sales agents were to
have their men, horses and carts ready
and for each cart route through the
lowliest sections Of the city would be
mapped out In this way the business

Philadelphia Too Fast Throughout
for the Chicago Boxer.

Chicago, Oct Jack" O'Brien, of
Philadelphia won on points from Joe
Choynski in a six round contest here
last night. O'Brien throughout the fight
was too fast for the Chicago man. AS
soon as the fight began O'Brien resOrted
to jabbing with his left, following this
with right on the jaw. O'Brien kept
this up for five rounds and during all
this time Choynski was unable to land
a single telling blow. When they came
up for the last round Choynski began
roughing it. During one of the ex-
changes he succeeded in reaching
OBrien with stiff right. The blow
cut a deep cash in O'Brien's forehead
and made the latter furious. Choynsh
tried hard to follow up his advantage,
but he soon showed WEAKNESS from the
fast pace and toward the end of the
round he got half a dozen blows on the
jaw that rendered him almost helpless.
O'Brien then made every effort to finish
Choynsld but the time was too short
though the final bell found Choynsk
barely able to stand
