Billiard News and Gossip

The annual meeting of the Inter
state Three-Cushion Billiard League,
postponed one week by Secretary Ed
Helm. of Cleveland, will open tomor-
row at the New Morrison Hotel, Chi
cago In all probability the sessions
will last two days, as there 10 much
work to be done toward preparation
for next seasons play. 1t is said on
good authority that class rather than
size will predominant next year so
far as the playing list goes, which
means that holders of franchises Will
be considerably reduced in number.
1t is limited that no roomkeeper Will
be allotted more than one franchise
contrary to. the condition last year
when Pittsburg, Chicago. Milwaukee.
Cleveland and indianapolis all boast
ed two or more players representing
a single room. Whether Or not men,
hers of the old school of stars such
as Alfredo de Orc, John Morgan. John
DAILY and George Moore will be In
league harness when they square away
for the opening of the third cham
pionship race in the fall. is matter
that can only be decided at the COM
ing meeting. If they want to get In
doubtless they will be received with
outstretched arms IL they are ready
and willing to abide by the rules and
regulations of the organization.

With all the cracks IN one league
the champion each year would be de-
termined without the necessity of spe-
cial matches which this season worked
"a detriment to both Ellis and Maui
pome. Ellis case in particular was
much like that OF the historic canine
with the two bones. He lost the
league title by switching over to pre-
pare for his match with De Orc and
later grew stale through the waning
days of league play and was not In
his best form when McCourt relieved
him of the worlds crown. Now the
great young left-hander can spend the
summer months weary in the thought
that he possesses no more title of
any kind than the proverbial rabbit.
Ellis owns jaw which denotes de-
termination. That jowl will bear
watching when the fur begins to fly
In league competition in the fall.
Charley McCourt, the new double
champion. evidently intends making
hay while the sun shines and as the
exclusive holder Of both the world $
and Interstate title, has begun a tour
of the country in company with Cow
boy Charlie Weston, former pocket
champion. Weston. who also halls
from Pittsburg, and whose right name
Is RectanLs, lesides being an enter
tainer of varied ability, can play
three-cushion caroms with the best OF
them and Is Ible at all times to give
McCcurt a stifY argument The pair
made a hit with Chicago fans during
their threeday sojourn in the Windy
City last week.

Better prospects for supply or Goa,

the tenseness OF the situation in tho
q coal markets and even 1T the mines
within the past few days. During III.
past week prices on spot bituminou.
coal have dropped from 80 10 - pei
cent. to the following circumstances
About three weeks ago when somt
sof the coal carrying railroads began
10 feel apprehensiyc of their car sup
ply getting down to point where they
could not supply enough cars TO take
care OF the business on their own lines
they placed enbargoes prohibiting the
shipment OF their coal cars to points
4 of their line; this action caused con
sumeres on non.coal carrying railroads
to rush into the open market and bid
up the price of spot coal. These con
y ssuiners have secured good supply
Z OF coal and are now out OF The mar
ket In addition, the railroad situa
ton with regard to empty coal cars
has eased UP considerably. and the in
dfcations are that the coal carriers
will gradually augment their supply
isot open top cars and thus prevent d
repetition Of high prices for spot coal
s that prevailed two and three weeks
ago.
The officials in charge Of the dis
various coal carrying railroads have
1 gone after the connecting lines whc
have abused their equipment and the
manner In which they have handled
J the situation has inspired the coal
shippers on the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad with the belief that they will
from now on, receive sufficient equip
mont to take caro- OF their contract
business without further trouble. Dur
ling the extreme car shortage which
prevailed two and three weeks age
practically every coal shipper in this
region fell behind IN the shipment OF
his contract coal and now that cars
are more plentiful he will be compel
ed to make up this shortage to his
contract consumers.
The general public seems TO have
gained the impression that these high
prices were obtained for all the coal
4 shipped from this region but care
full analysis shows that only about two
per cent. of the coal shipped during
the past month has been applied OH
spot sales. The balance, as stated in
the foregoing. has gone forward on
contracts entered into last spring
when the price was what is consider
abnormal and current spot prices have
no effect whatever on these contracts.
All OF the large coal shippers in this
region annually contract from 10 10
20 per cent. OF their normal output
When the supply Of coal ears falls be
low this percentage figure it can read
lily be seen they arc falling behind
IN supplying their contract consumer
and this deficiency is generally made
up when cars are more plentiful.
