FIND LARGE STORE OF COAL

MILWAUKEE,, Jan. 1.-THE charge
that there is enough anthracite coal in
local yards to relieve the famine, tenn
porarly at least, has been substantIated
by an investigating committee Of the
Common Council. While thousands of
persons in the city have been begging
coal at any price and have been turned
away daily from the coal offices, and
while untold suffering and illness have
been caused in the last few weeks, all
for lack of fuel, 10000 tons more than
was needed to end all this misery has
been lying idle in storage at the yards
of the Lehgh Valley Coal Company.
This, in brief, was the discovery made
by the Aldermen to-day Whether the
coal was held for higher prices is not
known, as the agents decline to make a
statement.

ASSEMBLYMAN AMERIGE
MAKES AN EXPLANATION
Says He Is Crying State Division in
Order to Brighten Northern
LEGISLATORS

SANTA ANA, Jan. H.-In letters to
friends in Orange County Assemblyman
E. A. Amerige explains his so-called
leadership of party for State division
in the Assembly by saying that he Is
using the cry Of State division merely
a club in swinging Northern legislators
into line to defeat the bill for the
State ownership of irrigation waters and
their control by commission. He says
that he has urged that if State owner
ship should be forced on the south lit
might be used as slogan cry for State
division, as the provisions of the irri-
cation bill are so distasteful to this end
of the State.

Stole to Keep His Wife and Children
From Freezing.

LANCASTER, Pa, Jan. H.-Alfred Him
melsberger. who arrested last night
for stealing coal from cars passing over
the Pennsylvania Railroad cutoff north
Of This city was discharged from custody
to-day. Himmelsberger said he had
money but could not purchase coal, so he
stole it TO keep his wife and children
from freezing. The railroad officers who
had preferred charges against him re-
quested his discharge on the ground that
they did not want 10 prosecute men in
his plight. Every train of coal passing
around the city is boarded and robbed to
some extent. The coal famine in this city
is now being felt more keenly than ever.

Vised to overcome this obstacle and in

The method deemed most feasible at
present is to fix minimum compensation
in the way of salary, sufficient to pay the
reporters living expenses, and which, to-
gether with the fees for transcript and

tee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries to
investigate the coal situation. The reso-
luton authorized ub-committees of the
committee to- take testimony. 1t was
adopted.
Dalzell of Pennsylvania from the Com
mittee on Rules then presented the spe-
cial rule for the consideration of the coal
rebate bill. 1t provided for the immediate
consideration of the bill, with provision
for one hours debate, at the end of which
time the previous question should be con-
sidered as ordered without intervening
motion. Twenty minutes on a side were
allowed upon the rule.
Dalzell after reviewing the history OF
the present duty coal said the pending
bill needed no defense. 1t was designed
to relieve the existing distress. Neverthe-
less, he said he did not believe it would
accomplish its purpose. He did not be-
lieye it would increase the importation of
a single pound of coal.
Il don't believe" he said, that any
thing can stop the greed and avarice of
the cormorants who are Vaking advantage

injuriously affect the coal industry of his
State and of the Northwest generally by
permitting competition, and asked if the
committee would not consider the ques-
ton of reducing the period of its opera
ton to six months.
Dalzell said the proposition had been
considered but because of the impossible
ity of forecasting the future of the coal
trade it had not been adopted.
Richardson of Tennessee called atten-
ton to the fact that the rule prevented
all possibility of amendment and he pro-
tested against such a course in such a
crisis. Proceeding, Richardson said when
the stress of emergency came there was,
perforce a recourse to Democratic doc
trine.
Williams of Mississippi, who followed
Richardson. contended that the removal
Of the duties must result in reducing the
price of coal.
In concluding the debate on the rule,
Dalzell declared that the hypocrisy of the
other side was apparent from the remarks
of Richardson. The opposition, he said,
was simply playing politics. The Demo-
cratic "perfidy and dishonor' bill had con-
tanned a duty on coal.
A rising vote upon the adoption of the
rule resulted: Ayes, 1876; noes, I10-a
party vote. with the exception of Perkins
(R.) of New York and Gaines (R) of
West Virginia, who voted with the Dem
ocrats.
A roll call was demanded and the rule
was adopted. 144 to 1l3, Perkins and
Gaines voting with the Democrats.
PAYNE Is SKEPTICAL.
Richardson said that neither he nor any
of his colleagues was opposed to the bill.
Payne of New York, in support of the
measure, sketched briefly the emergency
which made its passage advisable. He
die not believe its enactment would re-
suit in the Importation of much coal or
in much reduction in its price.
Maddox of Georgia denounced the whole
proceeding as a humbug.
Cochran of Missouri declared that there
was "late-day repentance on the other
side. If the President and the Depart
ment Of Justice, he said, had done their
duty months ago when they were gal
livanting around denouncing trusts the
situation would be different now. Gold
fogle of New York spoke along the same
| line.
In reply to question by Mccall of Mas
sachusetts, Payne said that in his opinion
| the rebate on coal would apply to coal in
| bond.
