DOGS FOR USE IN WAR.
German Military Authorities Think
Idea a Good One.


Instructions have been issued to
the jaeger or rifle troops Of the German
army in relation to the use of wal
dogs. The principal work in which
they are to be employed is scouting
and patrolling the transmission OF
intelligence from outposts and the
maintaining of communication be-
tween sentries and the posts to which
they are attached The breed most
suitable for the service is the Airc
dale terrier, but at the same time.
and until further orders are received,
the huhnerhund, roughhaired Ger
man dog, Is to be tried. 1t is recon-
mendeh that only pure-bred animals
Of known origin and good qualities DO
employed. Diligence is to be eSer
cised in training them to carry mes
sages from outposts and return and
to be vigilant in attracting the attpn
ton Of the sentries when strangers
approach. Each company IS to have
at least two weiltrained dogs and the
number of animals attached to a bat
talon will not exceed twelve.

other delay: The liberating army IS dis
posed to call the attention of Europe,

that we do not care to create interior

A run ON THE COAL
Six Hundred People in Line in Front
Of One Milwaukee
Office. s
One Woman Faints-Her Pitiful
Story-Mayor Roses
Promises.
Special to The Journal.

Milwaukee, Jan. 16.-The publication of
the; discovery Of II, 900 tons Of hard coal in
one yard and 800 in another, in Milwaukee,
was followed by a scene at the uptown Of
fees OF the Philadelphia and Reading COM
pany that has not been equaled since the
coal famine began. Hundreds Of people
struggled to get share Of the stock the
company decided to retail.
There were 900 people in line at the
Second street office at Z o'clock insthe
morning. some of them having formed IN
line two hours before daylight. The 500
tons Of coal was sold in an hour. One
woman tainted in the crush and was taken
into the lobby of theater near by, where
she told pitiful story Of suffering. She
was asked why she did not burn soft coal,
and replied that her stove was a self
feeder, and that she could not get soft
coal anyway, having made several efforts
besides standing in line al the gas office
for several hours after midnight trying to
get ticket that would get her a few
bushels Of coke, and failing, being one Of
the last in line, and drawing up to the
window just as 1t closed after tickets had
been issued for all the coke on hand. This
is but sample incident. Every one told
practically the same story and all Of the
people were not poor either, many we'll
to do men and women being in line. :
There having been threats to loot one
of the coal yards, a number Of officers
were stationed there. They surrounded
a mountain Of coal on the dock and will
allow none to approach it. The company
that owns this precious cargo is in the
wholesale business and has out Of town
customers that it has contracted to supply.
Mayor Rose says he has a train load
OF coal en- route to Milwaukee, and that
he knows where he can buy 10000 tons;
also, that he believes the famine will, be
relieved before the first part of February
II the railroads do their duty. He still
refuses to say where he found the coal.
