Ely District Feels Effects of
Nationwide Coal Famine
Conservation of Fuel Supply Upses Local Train Service and
interrupts Mining and Manufacturing Operations Heavy
Shows and Car Shortage Responsible for Trouble

On account of the recent severe
storms throughout the country. the
Ely district has suffered mewhat
from a shortage of coal and it has
been found necessary to discontinue
suburban trains on the Nevada North
ern railway until further notice. The
coal shortage Is general all over the
country, and from reportsc receiv-
ed from other sections particularly
in the mining region, it is evident
that this district is in far better
shape than any other section.
A representative from the News
seeking authentic information as to
the real cause of the coal shortage
and consequent suspension of the op-
Grafton of the suburban trains. was
reliably informed that the trains
we're cut off because the officials here
had notification from Salt Lake that
the Utah coal mines were showed in
and there was no loading of coal for
any points,
They also had information that the
state of Idaho and many parts of
Utah were short OF coal for domestic
purposes. In view of the advice and
in view of the small supply of coal on
hand at the mines and by the Nevada
Northern 1t was deemed advisable for
both the companies and the employees
to prepare for possible famine and
utilize the coal now being burned for
the mining and delivery of ore. In
this way the company would not only
be better prepared for any emergency
but a larger number of employees
could be kept on the pay roll
The heavy storms cut down the de-
liyeries of ore to such an extent that
for two days they we're only running
on half tonnage On Friday morn.
ing. however, six sections of the
eight at the mill were started up and
yesterday morning the seventh sec
tion was started.
Advice now Is to the effect that
they are now loading all Nevada
Northern cars which we're sent for
coal but were held up during the
storm. If the weather continues as
1t is at present the company will get
back to full tonnage by next Tues
day.
On Friday ore from the mines was
normal. Three fourths of the force
is at McGill and operations are con-
sequently not interfered with. The
men living at Ely and East Ely are
mostly carpenters and upkeep men
Some difficulty is being experienc-
ed here. as we'll as in all other sec
tions, in getting cars for outgoing
shipments of copper. An embargo
has been placed on all shipments
from December 26 to January I.

Hubs Big Big Stock Steel, IS IS
Going Rapidly

Each year end brings some business
changes in its train but these are
not always as important as the with.
drawal of an important store like the
Hub. The big commercial enigma in
Fairmont just now is who is going to
occupy the property at 123 Main street
which the Hub will vacate.
In the meantime the sale of the
stock in the store is progressing very
rapidly and many bargains are being
secured by shoppers. Tomorrow the
mems overcoats and suits will be plac.
ed on sale and some remarkable op.
portunities are included among the
offerings. 1t is predicted that the
garments will go rapidly.
The line Of haberdashery also is
very attractive. The decision to close
out came rather suddenly and was TAX.
en- after the winter stock had been pur.
chased, so that everything that is OF,
fered is of the very latest mode.

WILL. ALLOW

To MAKE BOND
COUNTY ATTORNEY AGREED TO
LET DEFENDANT OUT ON BOND
WHICH WILL NO DOUBT BE
MADE TODAY.

County attorney has agreed to allow
w. b. Slaughter alleged kidnaper, bail
in the sum of $1,000, and as soon as
Mr.. Slaughter arranges to furnish this
bond, he will waive preliminary hear
ing and be released until the regular
term of court.
Mr.. Slaughter who is getting well
past the meridian of life, at one time
was worth over half a million dollars,
but the wreck of the Mercantile Ma
tional Bank at Pueblo, Colorado, cost
him his fortune, and today he con-
fesSes that he is practically broke.
The Oakes family, paternal grand
parents of the child in question have
also suffered financial reyerses, and
". l. Cruce who has been retained as
attorney for Mr.. Slaughter, stated that
he was going to make a supreme effort
to get the two families to compromise
this matter, and not spend what little
they have remaining in court costs and
attorneys fees Mr.. Cruce is very
anxious to see the families reconciled.
He is superintendent Of the Presby-
terian Sunday School here, and very
often takes his religion into his prac-
tice. lie thinks that there is a better
way TO settle most difficulties than re
sorting to the law, and if he succeeds
in reconciling the two families, he will
have accomplished some real practical
Christianity.
1t is thought that Mr.. Slaughter will
have no difficulty in making the neces-
sary bond.

Relief Day in America.
The Jews in the war zone have
suffered frightfully. Thousands cf
their women and children will starve
unless help comes from this country.
The Jews have been contributing to
the help of their people since the
war began, but the funds which have
been received have not been sufficient
to meet the needs of the starving
hordes The local Jews contribute
every month to the relief fund.
There was never a call for help in

the Jews did not contribute generous
