to be his wife. In the meantime she
developed tuberculosis, which still
necessitates her remaining in Salt
Lake City, Utah. The one bright ray
of light in Richeson's career appeared
to be that he repaid the money loaned
him as fast as possible. The final
amounts were sent from Hyannis
shortly before he came to Cambridge.
Richeson was expelled from Will
liam Jewell College for cheating in ex-
aminations shortly after he had been
ordained at the First Baptists church
in st. Louis. For time he worked as
conductor on the street cars of the

Richeson entered Newton Theolog

graduated in 1909. During his course
he earned money by working in restu
raunts and shoe stores. He was called
to the Hyannis church in 1909 and re

day he was to have been married to
Miss Edmands. The trial of the case
was set for January 10.
Richeson had early written to his
church asking that judgment be sus-
pended until after the grand jury sit
ting. On November I he forwarded
his resignation, but the church on NO

fused to accept 1t. Later second let

the pocket of Miss Linnell's bathrobe,
which had been buried with her. The
body was dsinterred in Hyannis on

prominent physicians. The cause OF
death was confirmed but no additional

OF the dealers are more hopeful than
others about the outlook but the gem

an advanced price.
The dealers are not maintaining a
uniform price. Some sell all grades at
ss.75 a ton while the prices of others
range from ss25 to 1915.
With the exception of one dealer. all
have only car or two on hand. while
the single exception claims to have
forty or fifty cars Of hard coal, which
includes all the grades excepting chest

Hammond with the consumer who re-
lies on stove heat. and there is by far
the biggest demand for it. The only

Jobbers Raise Price.
Some of the dealers say that they
could get a bigger supply of the an
thracite by buying from the jobbers,
and paying an advanced price. but
rather than do this and to charge the
increased cost TO the consumer they are
satisfied to take the small lots they
can get directly from the mines.
Adding to the stringency OF the SIT
uation is the panicky desire of the
householders to accumulate stock Of
coal now for the winter. The railrods
just now are overtaxing their rolling
stock to haul the fuel to the western
points. which are most likely to be shut
off from the supply on account OF deep
SHOWS and washouts. Then. too, the
points on the navigation routes are
taken care of first before the ice keeps
the boats in dock. So with the western
markets supplied, and the navigation
routes closed. the mine operators can
give their attention to the territory
accessible by rail at all time.
other factors in the situation as it
exists today were the exceptionally cold
winter last year, which quite exhausted
the mined supplies, and the seventy
