NOTE A RAISE IN FUEL.
Producers of Anthracite Faced a
Shortage of 100000 Tons at
the Close of Summer.

Chicago, Nov 13.-Prices in AL
grades of coal will be advanced with
the first touch of cold weather, ac-
cording to men closely connected with
the coal mining industry who summar.
lied the situation here.
1t was also argued that because OF
the shortage of anthracite coal, due to
local difficulties and the lack of re-
serve supply, the eastern and middle
west producing districts could supply
only their immediate territory
Producers of anthracite coal, II was
said, faced shortage of 10000, 900
tons at the close of the summer be-
cause of labor difficulties and because
the reserve supply of 100000 tons
had been consumed during the eX-
IRENE cold period of last winter.
To overcome this shortage, the pro.
ducers are confronted with the neces.
sity of 100000 tons month more
than the normal production, the sta
tisticians estimated.

a baby is worth 5000, high school
boy $500 and a university student
5000, measured in terms of the SER

the state board OF control, at a Com
mercial club luncheon. Yet, he said,
the state spends thousands of dollars
annually for the proper care and pre-
servation of hogs and cattle, but only
$4,000 for the preservation of the pub
lie health. He showed the unreason-
ableness of such expenditure and
maintained that the state should de-
vote more of its resources to the saw
ing OF human lives than the raising

TCHATALJA FORTS
TAKEN, IS REPORT
Rum0red at Sofia Bulgars Have
Made Capture.
POWERS FOR CANCELLATION
Servia Continues to Hang on for Open
Ing on Adriatic, and Austria says
No-Neither Willing to
Yield.

London, Nov. 13.-Rumors are cur
rent in Sofia that the Bulgarian army
has captured the line of forts at
Tchatalja, in front of Constantinople.
according to a news agency dispatch.
A Bulgarian column is said to have
reached Biyuk Chekmedye, on the Sea
of Marmora, south of Tchatalja 1t ID
said also that the Bulgarian army I'm.
der General Theodoreff has reached
Salopika.
The deadlock in the international
political situation brought about by
the Balkan war continues. Neither
Austria nor Seryia has given way on
future Of Albania and the proposed
occupation by the Servians of port
on the Adriatic sea.
Despite this and the further fact
that the Russian press is intensity
ing daily the warlike tone of it's sup
port of the Servian cause, some of the
European chancellories take more
optimistic view, assuming that confer
ences between Austrian and Seryian
statesmen at Budapest have tended to
relieve the crisis.
Powers Work for Cancellation.
The great powers not directly inter.
ested in the outcome, but more par
ticularly Germany, are making strong
efforts to reconcile the two antagon-
lists, and 1t is believed that Germany
has persuaded Austria Hungary not to
press her objections to Seryia's aims
before the end of the campaign. Ger.
many has pointed out that the whole
question of the Balkans can then be
settled by European conference, in
which the Balkan nations will have a
voice. When Archduke Francis Fer
dinand, heir to the Austrian throne.
meets the German emperor the plans
for this conference will be drawn up
in outline.
It is said that the European powers
are about to sound the Balkan allies,
at the request OF Turkey, with the OBJ
Jet of arranging an armistice. Bull
garia Is not expected to accede to an
armistice until the conclusion of the
battle along the lines of Tchatalja, in
front of Constantinople. The principal
move in this fight awaits the arrival
of more heavy siege artillery for the
Bulgarian army.
The correspondent of the London
Daily News says there seems to be
quarter of a million people dying from
sheer starvation outside the Constan-
tinople city walls, which soon will be
surrounded by a pestilence stricken,
famished horde, Even now the people
are fighting with soldiers for handfuls
OF grain. Every effort is being made
to transport the refugees to Anatolia.

Washington, Nov. 13.-Russia Off
