NEW YORK, March 6.-Jose-
phine Terranova committed MUIR
der that she might cleanse her
soul of dishonor.
She killed her uncle for the stain
he put upon her. Then she stabbed
her godmother aunt because now
she knew that the aunt should have
saved her from sin and degrade
ton.
Until she married the man she
loved three weeks ago, Josephine
Terranova had no realization Of
the hideous injury done her. Gui-
seppe Terranova turned from his
child bride, and she, believing that
by blood alone came atonement for
her sinful ignorance, rushed to her
former home and took the life Of
the man who had ruined her.
After wandering about the city
for three days, Josephine Terrano-
va was arrested and taken to the
Tombs. She makes no pretense Of
regret for her awful deed.

hapless Josephine Terranova told

probably has been over estimated,
although the operators apparently
have more coal on hand now than
they ever had on the eve of a
strike. They can augment it very
much before April /, when the
strike Is due to begin.
The reason that the big cities
have not very large stock of coal
on hand in spite of the unusually
mild winter, is that there has been
a general shortage in railroad cars
for carrying coal.
The coal consuming capacity OF
the so largest cities in the United
States is something appalling. They
consume one-third of all the coal
mined in the United States, al.

COAlING AT SEA
MADE POSSIBLE
(Scripps News Association


WASHINGTON, D. c., March 6.
One of the mots important steps
taken in the navy department in
the way of adding to the mobility
of the fleet in time of action Is the
equipment of one of the naval col
Tiers with an English apparatus
which will permit coaling at sea.
This has been subject discussed
with much interest by the naval
general board. 1t Is considered of
equal Importance with the means of
repairing ships on the firing line by
the employment Of floating dock.
If vessels can be coaled at sea, of
course, there will be great saving
in time, which, in the event of war,
means the preservation of the in
tegrity and, therefore, the mainten,
ance of the efficiency of ffthe fleet.

THE CITIES ARE ILL PREPARED
TO MEET A GREAT COAL STRIKE

country. This is due to the manu-
featuring concerns being concen-
trated in the centers of population.
The hardest blow in the event of
an effective strike would be felt by
the working people. Lack of coal
would shut down the large indus
tries. Out of work, the employees
would not have an equal chance
with the better faring ones to buy
food-much less coal at the higher
price that will prevail. Were $780,
600 miners to quit work long
enough, each one of them could put
out of employment three men in
some other path of labor dependent
upon steam.
Some Non-Union Fields.
In a canvass of all the larger
cities it was learned that very many
coal consuming centers look to the
mines of West Virginia to furnish
coal in the event of a strike, be-
cause the West Virginia field is not
organized. There is also very
rich field of coal in western Ken
lucky, mined night and day with
non-union labor and the most i'm,
proved machinery that is depend
ed upon. There are other non.
union districts all over the country,
notably the Irwin field east of
Pitts burg, where President Dolan,
of the Pittsburg district, says there
are $4,000 non-union miners. Pitts.
burg does not now use coal from
this field, but expects to do so If
the union miners at its doors
strike.
Price Raised.
Through their situation, the eli
mate or local conditions certain
cities enjoy some immunity from
