COAL PRICES CUT

FIFTY CENTS A TON
Local Dealers Make Announce
ment in Anticipation of Orr
der from Operators.
DANGER OF STRIKE OVER,
INDEPENDENTS TAKE LEAD
All Sizes of Anthracite Included
in the Reduction Above
the Small Pea.

All sizes of coal above pea win bt
sold for 1918 per ton on and after
April l." said Frederick W. Garfield
secretary of the New Jersey Goa
Dealers Association, today. while
the Merchants Association has not de.
eided so far to reduce the price Of
coal, yet the independent operators
have. announced that they intend to dc
SO, and the retail dealers are fixing
their prices for April, May and june
as in the past, SO the housekeeper may
leave their orders with their dealers
IN Thursday.
"All steam coal. such as pea, buck
wheat and rice sizes, will remain al
the prices now asked"
The operators early in the season
thought that there was a strong posi-
hility of a strike blythe miners. but, as
the latter have practically decided no
TO strike, there was no reason why the
high prices should be maintained. and
the independent operators decided last
week to reduce their prices.
While no notices have been issued tc
the retail dealers. yet they understand
that the reduction is to take effect Oh
Thursday. n are now accepting
orders to be delivered on and after
April l.
The past winter is said to have beer
a very hard one for the coal operators
owing to the mild weather that pre-.
vailed, n the result is that they have
a large supply on hand.
The companies making the reductions
are the Pennsylvania Coal Company
The Jehjch and W~ilkesbarre Coal Com
pany, the Lehigh Coal and Navigation
Company, the New York, Ontario and
Western Company. the Philadelphia
and Reading Company, the Jersey Cen
trail Company, the Delaware and Hud-

IF IT DISAPPEARS, IT'S ECZEMA
How to Tell Whether n skin Affection
L. nm Inherited Blood Disease or Not.

Sometimes it is hard to determine
whether a skin affection is a sign Of
a blood disorder or simply a form of
eczema. Even physicians are often
puzzled In their diagnosis. The best
way for any n afflicted is to go to
Petty's Pharmacy, C. B. Smiths. or
any good druggist who handles pure
drugs and obtain SO cents worth of
poslam. Apply this, and If the itching
stops at once and the trouble is cured
IN a few days it may be set down as
having been eczema, as this is the way
poslam acts in the worst cases of &c
zema, and in curing acne, herpes,
blotches. letter, piles, salt rheum, rash.
BARRIERS and other forms of itch, scaly
scalp, and ali surface skin affections.
Those who will write to the Elmer
gency Laboratories, Nc. 80 West TWEEN
ty-ffth Street. New York, can secure,
by mail, free of charge, a supply suffi-
cient to cure a small eczema surface or
clear a complexion overnight and re-
move pimples In twenty-four hours.

BODEKER ASKS AN
INCREASE FOR MEN
CHIEF SAYS INCREASE IN COST
OF LIVING MAKES 1T ALMOST
IMPOSSIBLE FOR THEM TO LIVE
ON SALARIES.

A 10 per cent increase in the salary of
every member of the police department
except himself is the recommendation
which Chief Bodeker will make to the
police commission at its regular meeting
this morning at 10 o'clock. That the
present salary of $75 per month for reg
ular patrolmen and $50 for supernumaries
IS SO small that the officers are kept IN
permanent debt, is the way the chief de-
scribes conditions
The rapid increase in the cost Of living
has made this increase an absolute neces-
sity" said the chief last night For in
stance flour costs So per barrel more than
1t did a year or two ago. Then take into
consideration the many expenses an Of
ficer is put to. His laundry bill forms
quite an item. A clean shirt, collar and
cuffs alone give a laundry bill of 171a
cents per day, while fresh shoe shine
daily, with the constant pressing of uni
forms and many other incidentals makes
the policemans dress bill amount to a
great deal more than the average man
employed in store or office. 1t re-
quires a new pair of shoes every month,
the patrolman not being allowed to wear
shoes that have lost their shape, and the
eight hours walking of beat makes shoes
lose their shape quickly. The eight-hour
beat is also not all of the time the men
put in, the time spent in court and report
ing preparatory to going on duty making
them average over II hours a day
The letter from the chief to the commits
sioners reads as follows:
July 20, 1909.
Honorable Board of Police Commission
ers, City:
Gentlemen: In view of the fact that
the expense of living has increased to a
great extent during the past several years,
as you well know, and thereg are but very
few members of this department who are
not in debt, and the majority are borrow
ing their salaries in advance to try and
make ends meet, l would recommend to
your honorable body to grant an increase
in salaries of 10 per cent to each and
every member of this department except
myself.
Each, member of this department is re-
quired to buy two uniforms a year and
raincoats; keep good pistol, handouts,
etc, which about takes one months sal
ary
II trust that you can see your way
clear to allow this small advance as each
member of this department deserves it
and needs it. By paying the men we'll it
gives them encouragement to do their
duty and make good officers. Yours very
respectfully,

SEVERAL INJURED
In LABOR RIOT

Newcastle, Pa, July 20.-An attempt to
conduct 125 alleged strike-breakers
through the city on their way to the tin
mines caused a riot late this afternoon,
during which one man was seriously in
jured and scores of others beaten and
bruised.
Harry Ringer and James Warren are in
jail, charged with attempting to incite to
riot.
The men, both of whom said to live
an Cleveland, were leaders In the strike
breakers. They arrived in Newcastle this
morning and marched down the street
shouting defiance at the strikers. The en-
tire party accompanied by several police
men, were attacked by crowds on the
sidewalks. Eight of the alleged strike
breakers and all of the special policemen
were arrested by the city police. No strik-
ers were arrested.
Those arrested we're said to be armed
with guns and knives.

Harriman's Life Insured.

New York, July 2O.-An insurance
policy for 100000 on the life of E. H.
Hartman has been written by Lloyds.
London, for a New York broker, who
has large holdings of Hartman stocks.
His object is to protect his holdings
from any depreciation which he regards
as likely in the event of Mr.. Harri-
mans death. Although this is the first
policy of this character on Mr.. Har-
riman's life written in this country by

similar policies have been taken out
recently by English investors. The rate
was IL guineas per cent. equivalent to
