Makes Dealers Happy

Detectives OF the Philadelphia and
Reading Railway are keeping close
watch on the cellars of consumers in
the Reading territory 10 see that no
favored householder is permitted to ac-
cumulate a large stock This action
lis in line with the general policy Of the
company. which is to see that its coal
is distributed in small quantities and
that i'm view OF the heavy demand, each
individual consumer receive only
enough fuel for immediate use. Deal
ers are given to understand, when Il is
found that any cne consumer is ac-
cumulating coal far in excess of his
present needs, that further orders from
that consumer are not to be filled.
Dealers We're Irlcked
This supervision of the output from
the yards was made more estringentwhen
It was found that many of the con-
sumers in the Reading territory, fear
ing that late in the winter the coal
supply may be suddenly restricted, had
filed their bins with coal enough to
last far into the spring. Various tricks
have been resorted to in order to ac-
complish this result. Hundreds of
householders have given onders TO
two or three yards simultaneously and,
in many cases, wagons from one dealer
have arrived with loads at city houses
while those Of other dealers were un-
loading at the same houses.
All Sorts of Pleas
There is not a dealer in the city upon
whom some trick has not been at
tempted by persons who want immedi-
ate deliveries of COAL Sickness has
been pleaded. and in some Of these
cases the men making the delivery
have been Obliged to trim back the coal
in already well-filled bins in order to
make room for the load they brought.
