Coal Shortage is Predicted

That a great shortage in coal
and an increased price for the
fuel is keenly anticipated for
the near future is evinced by
the fact that the Pennsylvania
Railroad company is using
every bit of availableilspace in
this district for the storing of
fuel.
Thousands of tons are being
stored at South Altoona and q.
the lower end of the yards.
This work is furnishing en-
ptoyment to several. hundred
local men and the Pennsy will
likely continue to store the
coal until all the space is taken
up. The coal is being, stored
in great heaps and precautions
are being taken to pack the
coal in such a manner that the
danger of spontaneous combus-
tion will be reduced to a mini
mum.
The Pennsy is being follow
ed by a number of other large
railroads, showing that some
big movement in the coal mar.
ket is anticipated within the
near future. Altoona is being
made the principal storage
place for this district Of the
Pennsy system.

State Wide Vigilance Commits
tee

Des Moines, Oct. 14.-The
Associated Vigilance Commit
tee of Iowa has been incorpor-
ated for the purpose of secur-
ing the enforcement of the
Iowa law against FRAUDULENT and
misleading advertising.
/ The board of directors con-
sists Of eleven Des Moines bus
mess men, who will resign as
rapidly ss the organization can
be extended over the state and
a director elected to represent
each of the Iowa congressional
districts.
7. E. Shufelt is secretary of
the Committee, and is opening
a central office in Des MONIES,
from which the work of the
committee will be conducted.
Special attention will be CIV
en- to fake and fraudulent fire
sales, closing out sales, etc,
which are a misdemeanor under
the Iowa law, adopted by the
last general assembly in re-
spouse to the requests of the
Associated Advertising Clubs
of Iowa and the various retail
organizations.
!. The advertising clubs all
over America are insisting upon
truthful copy, in justice alike
to the reader and to the honest
advertiser. "False and mis-
leading statements in one adj
vertisement reduce confidence
in all Advertising" said Mr..
Shufelt. "Tbe fake advertiser
trades upon the good will estab-
lished by houses of known in
tegrity. His methods are a
form of unfair competition. as
we'll as a positive detriment to
the community and a scource
of loss to the public. 1t is the
purpose of the Associated Vigil
lance Committee to exert it's
influence to correct this abuse. T"
Notable work has been done
along this line through Vigil
lance committees of the adver-
Using clubs in Boston, New
York, Indianapolis, Los Angeles
Minneapolis and other cities.
Results have been secured
largely through education-it
has been found unnecessary to
institute prosecutions in the
great majority of cases.
The Associated Vigilance
Committee of Iowa will extend
its efforts over the entire state
as rapidly as possible, increas-
ing the security of the public
and forwarding the cause Of
honest advertisers.

Torrey of this city vs. John s. Crampton, New Haven. superintend- ent of the state fish and game commits sion. This is the becoming-famous deer case.
 Attorney Yeomans of Hartford rep resented MT. Crampton. The defend- ant demurs, first. because 1t is not all legged that the defendant had any au- thority or supervision over Arthur l.. Day, county game warden for Wind ham county, whose alleged assault on MT. Torrey resulted in the bringing of Champion; second. because it is not all legged and does not appear that said Arthur l.. Day was the servant or agent of the defendant or owed any duty to him; third, because it is not alleged and does not appear that the defendant was present at the time of the alleged assault.
 MT. Yeomans said, after reading the demurrer, that he would cite no au- thorities.
