LORD KITCHENER AT ROME
British War Minister Said to Be
Seeking ltaly's Aid in
Balkans.

Rome, Nov. 27-Lord Kitchener ar
rived here from Naples. After con-
ferring with Premier Salandra and the
Italian war minister, he probably will
go to the fighting front to meet King
Victor and General Cadorna.. In view
of the allies anxiety to secure Italian
aid in their Balkan campaign. the
greatest importance was attached to
his presence here.
Recent activity of German subma,
rines in the Aegean sea was due to
an effort to sink the steamer which
was conveying Lord Kitchener, the
British secretary of war, according to
a dispatch to the Giornale DItalia
from its Cairo correspondent. The dis.
patch adds that the fact that the ship
was conveyed by numerous torpedo
boats probably was responsible for
the frustrating of the German efforts.

Expect Long Fight.

Coal shippers may have many hur-
dies to get over before they get their
refund from the Hooking Valley Rail
way Company for overcharges on coal
shipped while the company litigated
the legality of it's rate on coal.
The company sued in July, 1911, to
stop the enforcement of an order from
the then Public Service Commission
of Ohio. The company lost the suit
in September, 1915. The rate was cut
from 81 to IS cents. Shippers want a
refund of the 10 per cent overcharge.
Not all the claims have been filed, but
it was said by coal men the refund
claim would be probably 100000.
AS the case was liquidated, the
courts hearing it required bonds to
be filed by the company to protect
shippers in case the rate was found to
be too high The total of the bonds
filed aggregate $4,000.
The position and claim Of the com
pany was made plain in an answer
fled with the Utilities Commission, in
which it held that all of it's financial
| liability for refund to shippers was
limited to the aggregate sums of the
bonds required by court. It took the
position that if the sum of the claims
exceeded the total of the bonds the
money could be prorated among the
! claimants.
