NOT DUE TO LACK OF CARS
COMPANIES ARE NOT
RESPONSIBLE FOR SHORT.
AGE IN FUEL

For some time the newspapers Of
the country have been attributing the
cause Of the coal famine to the in
ability of the railroad companies to
furnish cars to haul the fuel from the
mines. According to railroad men,
this is an erroneous impression In
speaking of the matter today General
Agent Burns Of the o. r. & N. said:
1.-The shortage in the supply Of coal
in this section Of the country is not
due to the lack Of cars, but mas been
brought about through the inability of
the owners of coal mines to get the
product out of the ground. I am in
receipt of letters from coal companies
in Utah and other places, in which
they have informed me that they have
been having strenuous times in Sc
curing sufficient help to get the coal
out Of the ground. In some localities
in Utah I am Informed that the people
have for months been using slack coal
for fuel purposes and were glad to get
It. The railroad have plenty Of cars
and are eager to supply them On short
notice."

The animal, Mr.. Ennis AYERS, was to
be paid for by three promissory notes,
one for $1,334, due September /, 1907;
one for 1888, due September 1, 1905

that the notes were not to be delivered
until they were all signed by all the
parties to the purchase contract.
The notes were signed by all the
parties excepting by Mr.. McInroe, and
upon being signed We're placed in the
hands of Berry Gholson to be delivered
to Muircheon and Payne when their
delivery was authorized by either Mr.
Erris o. B. c. Rolf. 1t is now alleged
that through the absence Of Mr.. En-
mis-, Rolf inadvertently and by mistake
authorized Mr.. Gholson to turn over
the notes to the defendants without
the signature of McInroe. Mr.. NC
Inroe now refuses to sign the notes,
and as they are negotiable and as
Muirchesen and Payne, it is alleged,
threaten to send the notes outside the
Jurisdiction of the Walla Walla court
there Is danger that the notes will be
negotiated and sold to some innocent
purchaser Mr.. Ennis alleges that the
defendants refuse to deliver up the
notes and this morning secured an
order restraining the defendants from
negotiating or transferring the notes
outside the jurisdiction of the Walla
Walla court.
The hearing was set for January IA
and Mr.. Ennis was required to give
bond for the sum of $1,000.

tell the following story at his own ex

number of boys who used to play
ball on the Boston common, which
was then against the law At regular
intervals old Erastus Clapp, the con

boys used to have great fun with this
rather choleric old manifestations
Clapp the boys dubbed him.

grown up into a prosperous and re
spected business man, while passing
along Boston street in company with

wizened old man the likeness of his

CHAPTER XIV.
Isle Ruuen,

At eventide of the third day of their
journeying the party came to great
morass. The horses picked their way
warily through this tangle, the rotten
sticks yielding as readily as wet mud
beneath their hoofs. Pools Of stag
nant black water had to be eyaded,
treacherous yellow sands tested,
bridges constructed of the tirmer logs,
till all suddenly they came out upon
a fairylike little half moon of sand and
tiny shells.
Here was a large fiat bottOmed
boat, drawn up against the shore. In
the stern a strange figure was seated,
a man, tall and angular clad in Jerkin
and trunks of brown tanned leather,
cross gartered hose of grey cloth, and
home made shoon of hide with the
hair outside. He wore black scull
cap. and his head had the strange UNI
canny look of a wild animal. 1t was
not at the first glance nor yet at the
second that Boris and Jorian found

Meanwhile, Werner Won Orseln was
putting into his hand some pledge or
sign which he scrutini2ed carefully,
when Jorian gripped his companions
arm
Look" he whispered, hes got no
ears!"
Nor any tongue, responded Boris,
staring with all his eyes at the prod
ICY,
And, indeed, the strange man was
pointing to his mouth with the index
finger of his right hand and signing
that they were to follow him into the
boat which had been waiting for them.
The Duchess leapt from her horse
and stepped from the little pier OF
stone beside which the boat lay, and
walking firmly from seat to seat she
reached the stern, where she sat down
without seeming to have so much as
glanced at any of the company.
Werner Won Orseln then motioned
Captains Boris and Jorian to take
their places in the bow, and having
barred his head he seated himself be-
side his mistress. The wordless, ear
less man took the oars and pushed
off. The ten men left on the shore
set about building fire and making
shelters of brushwoOd, as If they eX'
pected to stay there some time.
The boat passed almost noiselessly
along, the strange man rowing strong
ly and the boat drawing steadily away
across the widest part of the still In
land sea. AS they thus coasted along
the gloomy shores the sun went
down and darkness came upon them
at bound.
After a space tall trees again shot
up overhead, and with quick turn
the boat passed between walls of trem
bling reeds that rustled against the
oars like silk, emerged on a black
circle of water, and then, gliding
smoothly forward, took ground in the
blank dark.
AS the broad keel grated on the
sand. the Wordless Man left out, and
standing on the shore, put his hands
to his mouth and emitted long shout
like a blast blown on a conch she'll
It had obviously a meaning for some
one and to put the matter beyond 0

whistles from behind the rampant OF
trees.
Joan sat still in the boat where she

had placed herself. She had asked
no question, and even these strange
experiences did not alter her resolu-
ton.
Presently a light cleaned uncer-
tainly through the trees, now lost
behind brushwood and again break
ing out.

step quick and firm. Il was that of
