is PLENTY OF COAL
Generous Supply is Already on
Hand in Rock ISL.
and.
FAMINE IS NOT LIKELY
Prices Will Not Cut Much Figure
With Users as Most of Them
are Stocked.

There seems little likelihood of a
coal famine this winter, at least as
far as Rock Island is concerned. The
stock of coal is large and for the most
part the bins have been filled long
since. The recent lowering of temper
allure has had the effect of hurrying
up the laggards and there seems little
likelihood that anyone will be short
of fuel
In fact the coal question falls far
short of being question at all, and
everyone who has the money also has
the coal in his cellar y local dealer
said yesterday:
Il do not anticipate very great
rise in the price of coal. although
there is some intimation of it in the
trade journals. As a matter of fact
it is due in a large measure to a
scare carried over from last year and
there are large numbers of people
who viii place in store large quanti-
ties of coal for which they will stand
in no need for whatever. Not that the
price will lower after the first pur-
chase of the winter. but it would not
be good policy to purchase more than
is needed for ordinary consumption as
there will not be a change either for
the good or bad in the price.
VIII be Some Change.
''Of course. it is not probable that
there will be no fluctuations in prices.
There never has been season yet
where the price of fuel remained
stationary for any considerable
length of time, and there is no reason
to suppose that it will during the
coming winter. What | mean to say
is that the changes in price will not
be of such wide range rs will cause
what is commonly termed famine,
and therefore there viii be no need
of Il panic and rush on the coal Of
fees for u winters supply
The situation is about as expressed
above. There is not the slightest dam
ger of a famine in the fuel market.
and those who expect to anything of
the sort who are buying in large
quantities of coal as a result while
they will not be losers by reason of a
drop in the price are being unneces-
sarily alarmed. Hard coal will of
course be subject to a little rise as is
always is the case in the middle of the
winter, but this scarcity is due to
other reasons.

MILAN UNWILLING
Southern Suburb Will Oppose Fill.
ing Under Span of Slough
Bridge
WHEN STRUCTURE IS REBUILT
Claims Shortening Would Endanger
Village in Time OF
Floods.

The people of Milan seem determin-
ed to- resist the proposed filing of
the north end of Kickapoo slough,
the southernmost one of the streams
at that place and the one which the
Rock Island city council : preparing
to place new bridge across. 1t was
pointed out that fill had as we'll be
made under the north span, leaving
but one span to be rebuilt and mater
ially reducing the cost, from the fact
that the stream that now passes I'M
der the bridge is but Il fraction of
what it was when the bridge was ORR
ginally built.
The people of Milan take the ground
that while the water that ordinarily
passes down the channel is very small
and could easily pass under one span,
the freshets of Mill creek need all the
room they can get in order to prevent
them from washing away the town.
In other words, they assume that a
considerable portion of the Mill creek
floods are carried away under the
north span of the bridge.
Now Full of Drift.
Now, as matter of fact. the north
half Of the channel has become filed
in through action of the water and
the growth of willows ana weeds till
the bank there is nearly the same
level as the portion of Milan lying
Immediately south of it. Not only
that. but the slough is filing from
year to year. and the time will come
in a very few years when no water.
even in the case of freshet. will get
over the north bank of the ordinary
channel When there was flood in
the creek couple Of months ago and
the fire bell was rung at Milan at dead
of night to warn the people of the
danger. there was but few inches of
water passing under the north span
of the present bridge. while there was
Il foot or two tearing down through
the town and passing away via the
Little Jimmie" creek.
One Span is Sufficient.
The fact is that the south span of
the bridge will accommodate all the
water that is able to pass down
through the narrower channel above.
and if the upper channel is overtaNed
Milan is in for food even though
the Kicllapoo bridge were Il mile long.
1t hardly seems the part of wisdom
for the city of Rock Island to go to
several thousands of dollars extra eN-
pense in placing a span across the
north half Of the channel when very
little benefit to anyone can possibly
accrue at the present time and none
whatever after nature has done its
work few seasons longer.

The editor of The Independent has
