nothing like it has ever been offered

such moral lesson as we all need In

FIRE IN JACOBS WAREHOUSE
Fire Breaks Out at A. M. and Does
Damage to the Extent of $500


The fire department was called out
at four o. CLOCK this morning on account
Of bad blaze in the warehouse con-
nected with the store of Peter Jacobs
at the corner Of Caledonia aud Ounce
streets. Before the fire had been ex-
tinguished damage to the amount of
$500 was done. The warehouse was
pretty well filed up with staple groc-
cries and this made the loss heavier.
The cause of the fire is complete
mystery. Mr.. Jacobs had locked up
the warehouse at eight CLOCK Friday
night, and at that time there was no
sign of a fire in the building It is
thought possible that some one broke
into the building to sleep and set the
fire. The building was in flames when
the department arrived, but hard work
made it possible to save the surround
ing buildings. The fire was discovered
by Merchant Police Officer M. Nader
and Police Officer Mischler. The loss
is entirely covered by insurance.

FEAR COAL FAMINE
Reports From the East Declare
That Trouble is Found in
Moving cargoes West
PLENTY OF COAL IN KENOSHA

With the marine season nearing a
close and the inability of coal dealers
at Lake Michigan and Superior ports
to obtain charters to carry coal from
Lake Erie ports coal famine in the
Northwest is predicted by railroad Of
fcials. There are scores of coal car
riers lying at ports and which have not
been in commission this season and al
though there will be demand for coal
carriers, these boats will not be put in
commission because charters from Lake
Michigan and Lake Superior ports can.
not be obtained and the freights paid
for coal cargoes would not pay the ex-
pense in fitting out the boats for one
or two trips.
In this city the dealers have their
usual supply of coal. Orders have
been placed for more, but boats cannot
be chartered. One dealer today in
formed a News reporter that he ex-
pected to receive several cargoes Of
coal before the marine season closed,
but there is much difficulty in charter
ing boats.
Managers of railroads of the North
west declare that there will be another
coal famine in the Northwest this win
ter and that they see no way to pre-
vent it. This prediction is due to the
fact that generally in the Northwest
there is an unpreparedness for winter,
as even less fuel has been provided
than usual.
That this is the fault of the railroads
is strenuously denied, and it is pur-
posed to give full publicity to the fact
that the railroads will not be blamed
for the famine when it comes Tt is
stated that the managers Of all rail
roads extending into the Northwest
began early in the summer to warn the
coal dealers Of that region to prepare
for winter. Circulars were issued and
sent broadcast urging the dealers to
buy their winters supply during the
summer and fall and not to wait until
the winter months.
In addition to the circulars the rail
roads travelling freight agents all
through the Northwest tried to arouse
sentiment with respect to an early sup
ply of coal. The dealers were told that
coal could be transported during the
slack months and stored for winter IS
use. Many Of the dealers insisted that
they had no storage facilities and did
not care to stand loss by storing
their coal on the ground If the rail
roads desired to haul the coal into the
Northwest and stand loss by storing
it, we'll and good. Otherwise the deal
erS chose to take their chances on late
deliveries. The famine talk did not
alarm the dealers generally, for famine
brings famine prices, and famine prices
bring larger profits.
The railroad managers were therefore
compelled to abandon their attempt to
induce an early ordering Of coal sup
plies. The best they could do was to
see that their own supplies were stored
ahead of consumption, 30 that if famine
threatened they would be in better
position to hurry coal into the North
west. In connection with the coal sup
ply problem it is stated that less than
100000 tons of coal will be shipped
from the Pittsburg district to the
great lakes this year, as against
100000 to 100000 last year.

Of Irregularities in connection with the

he is entitled to the benefit Of a doubt
until the men who accuse him come out

he did no more than has been done

country.
