Hamilton, where the temporary Hi
nois quarters of the Keokuk and Ham
i'ton Water Power company are TO be

The material ordered includes only
the tiniest drop in the bucket of what
is to follow but is enough to show that
work on the great dam will commence
at once, the active building to COM
mence early tomorrow morning when

of dirt and the work, which when
completed will harness the Mississi-
ppi and cause generation of 100000
horse power, will have actually be-

Just what Mr.. Cooper and Mr.. Allen
purchased from the local hardware
firm would no doubt prove of much in
terest just now when the fever of ex-
element is at It's height. Among the
bill of goods were many blacksmith

Times Accuses Latter Of De.
liberately Inflamins Minds
Of People....0ne OF the
Peers kidnapped.

London, Jan. S.-Public oblitera-
tion of Premier Asquith as the re-
suit OF antagonisms aroused by the
present election campaign. is being
predicted by almost as many Liberals
of which party Asqu'th is the head,
as Conservatives. The opinion is
growing that Lloyd-George, author
Of the famous budget, is the greatest
power of the Liberal party, and will
succeed Asquith If the Liberals win
the election. The Times acquits AS
quith of the responsibility Of the dem
onstrations of violence. but says
Lloyd-George is guilty Of deliberate
ly inflaming the passions of the peo-
pie and encouraging ruffianism. One
man was killed and a number seri-
ously injured in the crush around
the town hall of st. Georges in the
east end last night.

VIII Not Affect Schools.

The shortage will not affect the
schools. as the Gardner Coal COM
pany, which has the contract, has re-
ceiyed several cars of coal for the
schools, and 1t will be distributed at
the buildings. Neither will the Padu-
cab Traction company, unless the
shortage holds for considerable time.
Mr.. II. B. Sewall today said that the
company had a good supply on hand,
and had received news that a ship
ment was making good progress down
the Ohio river. II the weather mod
crates during the next few days the
gorges will break and heavy ship
ments will be brought down the river
from Pittsburgh.
Many OF the factories are running
with short forces during the cold
weather, and do not require as much
coal as in good weather. However,
the majority of people are optimistic,
and believe that the weather condi-
tions will moderate so that the coal
shortage may be relieved.

EFFECT ON yuE FACTORIES

Paducah Is face to face with a
coal famine. This condition will last
for a week according to the retail
coal dealers, who say they will not
be able to get further shipments be-
fore that time. With the famine the
price is expected to advance also.
All over the country there is coal
shortage, and the mines have been
unable TO supply the demand, while
the railroads have been unable to
move the loaded cars because OF the
blocked trafic. The snow has stop
ped work at many mines. Practical
BY every dealer in city is out Of coal,
and Is unable to get in enough coal
to supply the demands. One dealer
this morning said: 1--WE have sew
eral cars on our tracks now. but the
coal Is all cold, and we are delivering
il as fast as possible. Since yester-
day afternoon we have refused sever
al hundred orders simply because We
could not fill them / believe that 1t
will be at least a week before an
other supply of coal adequate to the
needs will be received by the deal
ers."
Coal is retailing in the city for 10
and II cents a bushel now, and the
dealers unhesitatingiy say that the
price will be boosted in Paducah.
They say the coal is being
sold to dealers in other cities be-
cause higher prices are paid.
