Crimp in Coal Business.

The warm weather OF the past few
weeks has put O. big crimp in the coal
business. The threatened coal famine
will not nnaterialize this year.
There is not a coal dealer in Ham
mond, or in any of the other cities of
the region. who Is not able to supply
his customers with all the coal they
need at the present time.
This is encouraging to the public at
large. If not to the coal dealers them
selves, Shipments of coal from the
east are now expected to keep pace
with the demand for the rest of the
winter.

INCORPORATE
COMPANY

E. S. Emerine, cashier of the Ameri-
can Savings & Trust Company, went
to indianapolis today to incorporate
the company which is to take over the
Lash building.
While the people connected with
the deal refuse to talk at this time it
is understood that the building Will
be leased out for the time being and
that no change in the character of the
improvements will be made for some
time.
The members of the syndicate which
purchased the building are said to all
be associated with the American Trust
& Savings bank of Hammond and this
suggests the idea that the building may
eventually be used for banking pur-
poses.
The deed was passed yesterday, as
