on the deal bobbed UP in Martins
burg again a day or two ago. with
James L. Sibole, of Virginia avenue,
as the intended victim.
Mr.. Sibole didn't recognize the
thing as a swindle, but the affair was
o. such an unusual character that he
consulted an attorney, who promptly
pronounced the matter fraud.
The letter to Mr.. Sibole was along
the usual lines, but the scene was
shifted from Spain to Mexico, where
the writer of the letter stated he was
being held in prison on trumped-up
charge, and that all he needed was a
few hundreds in cash to effect his es
cape and regain possession of $3.50
coo, which he had hidden before his
arrest. He offered to diyvy with Mr.
Sibole if the latter would advance the
few hundreds required for the prison
er to regain his liberty.
The swindle has been worked in
this country for many years, and
many persons have been caught by il,
Notwithstanding the fact that it has
been exposed countless times.

articles ruined represented the ac-

While the family were at dinner, his

crept upstairs, rummaged tnrouf,t

HIGH PRICE OF COAL

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-Without
waiting for the decision of the su-
premc court in the Hearst suit agains.
the coal trust, the interstate commerce
commission has begun a rigid investi..
CATION into the responsibility of the
coal carrying railroads rOr the present
high price Of anthracite and the threat
ened coal famine in the east.
The commission is given rate making
power under the Hepburn law. If, as
a result of the investigation, if finds
that the rates imposed by the railroads
are directly or indirectly responsible :
for the scarcity Of coal and the exces-
sive prices, this power will be rigor-
ously applied
Anthracite coal is now selling in
New York for $3.50 a ton. a price
which works severe hardship on all but
The well-to-do. Indications are that
prices will go still higher.
The Investigation will, Of course, be
entirely Independent of the suit against
the coal trust, which was brought by
the government on evidence submitted
to former President Roosevelt by Viii
liam Randolph Hearst, a suit which is
now before the supreme court, and on
which an opinion, expected for more
than year, may be given next Mon
day.
