PEOPLE ARE GOING WILD
IN STORING UP COAL
Immense HOarding of Fuel Is Regarded
as Menace to the Peace
Negotiations.

louisville. Pa. March Am in
dependent coal operator said this after
noon: The people are crazy. clean gone
wild. on the question Of putting away
coal"
That this is pretty nearly true is
demonstrated by the great rush of coal
TO market and the endeavor OF the peo-
pie TO store II. The railroads are pushing
general freight TO one side. and coal
trains are virtually given the right OF
way, even TO the extent of Inconvenience
ing and delaying the express trains.
There never was such a rush Of coal
down the Reading main line as has been
witnessed this past week. and Sunday
the road was apparently occupied
with one long, continuous coal train. a
full 40 miles from the mines 10 tide
water.
The immense storing OF coal is fast be-
coming menace TO peace negotiations.
for the mine workers are realizing now
more than before that even il there is no
strike. there won't be any market for
coal for long months TO come and that
as result of the great quantity of fuel
being stored by all classes OF people. the
mines will hardly be able to work over
the summer months more than one OF
two DAYS a week

POLICE DIVISION
BEFORE COMMITTEE
The Needs of Metropolitan
Force Discussed.
P R0VlDES PROMOTIONS
Measure as Argued Will Work Great
Benefit to the City of
Washington.
PROVIDES PROMOTIONS

he olil for the reOrganiza ton Of the
Metropolitan police Of the District OF
columbia was taken up in the House
early today. This measure aims to
divide the-force OF privates into three
classes. at sse0. sI.OS9 and $1,000 sal
AIRY. TO provide promotion from one
class 10 another and 10 provide for
retirement at an age limit. on a pau-
sion
The bill was explained BY Mr.. Camp-
bell OF Kansas He said the bill aimed
at a better organization. without in
creasing its expense. At present ,ba-e
are $40 privates OF class A. xsoo
and 265 OF class at 81 ESQ a year Tbs
three classes are 20 be substituted for
these two.
There was a sharp discussion OF the
pension provision. which designs TO
give a maximum or $50 per month. and
rom this grading down, as the period
OF service and degree OF disability are
lessened
In behalf OF the bill emphasis was
laid on the fact that In Washington
there Is great area to De patroIled
ard that compensation IS lower here on
the whole than in other cities comnsr-
aOie 10 washington There has been
no increase in the pay of the prIvates
since 1851. though the expense OF living
mas greatly increased
Mr. Campbell urged that Washington
requires and has. a peculiarly intelli-
gent police force The residence here
or great number OF citizens and repre-
sentatives OF other countries presents
many delicate problems In international
diplomacy.
This question Of the immunity Of
diplomats caused some inquiries '.Is
there anything sacred about the person
or the son OF diplomat that a police
man must not assume TO arrest him ?"
was asked
Well. his arrest would make an in
ternational question" replied Mr.. Camp
bell The policeman is expected TO use
MS intelligence and avoid such trou-
Mr.. Crumpaeker and others found
oirncGIty In grasping the pension pro-
visions or the bill There was an i'm
preston that IL would involve a large
expense Each member Of the force is
to contribute 81 per month. and cer-
tain fines also go 10 IL. After 3stasn
years service a man may retire on a
pension of $50 or less. There was per-
sistent inquiry TO bring out whether
man serving from TWENTY-FIVE TO
forty years of age could retire at thu
age at $50. Mr.. Campbell explained
that the amount OF his pension would
be discretionary. depending on the
report or the examining surgeons as
to his degree of disability. The $50
rate. it was explained. is only for
total disability.
