should read regularly one or two good

Continuance of Coal Famine.


Under headlines like these, Poor

papers tell Of scenes enacted IL and
about the coalyards of that city dur
Ing the cold snap a few days ago
which were unique in the history OF
New York. One big yard on the east
side was besieged by people seeking
small quantities of coal from early
morning until late at night. At 8
o'clock in the afternoon there was
line of women and children two blocks
long awaiting their turn to buy
ticket good for a little pail of coal The
police had to be called to keep the
crowds in order at many yards. "Fhc
situation Is desperate" said a police
man on guard at one of the yards. ''If
we have another cold snap before
more coal comes TO the roarket, l
would not be surprised to see rloting."
| Fortunately the weather moderated,
and the immediate crisis was passed
without serious disorder, though num-
Der of arrests were made.
Speaking of the incident, the presi-
dent OF the New York Association Fo1
