DEALERS HAVE
TROUBLE WITH
COAL REPORT
But They Are Doing Their
Best to Procure Required
Information

Coal dealers in this city are hav-
ing troubles of their own in attempt
ing to answer the questions pro-
pounded by the Federal Trade Com
mission, and one of the dealers is of
the opinion that he will need two or
three expert accountants before he
can safety make affidavit to the re-
pert. -
Administrator Garfield wants the
facts, and we will do our best to get
the required information for the COM
mission" said one dealer, but the
task is a difficult one. 1 have been
working upon our report for two or
three days, and I am still far from
the last question"
When an increase in the price of
coal to Harrisburg people was an
nounced, Commissioner Garfield tele-
graphed the Harrisburg Telegraph for
complete information. Copies of the
Telegraph containing articles relative
to the local situation were sent to
Mr.. Garfield. Following this. the coal
men were required to prepare data
covering every phase of activity in
buying and selling. during a period of
several months.
Prices VIII He Fair
You can ina gine the difficulty eX-
perienced in giving the average cost
per net ton of all coal in our yard
August l." commented another dealer
Some coal ordered in April was re-
ceived here in July. Some was bought
from railroad-owned mines; some was
secured from independent operators.
It is some task to work out the re-
quired information. but we are doing
our best to comply with the Govern
ment's requirements"
Many persons are considering the
use of bituminous coal since anthra-
cite has taken a jump. it is an
nounced. commissioner Garfield will
use the authority of his office to see
that coal is supplied at a fair price,
the commission reiterated to-day.

IN CITY LIGHTER
THANLAST YEAR
Even With Riverside Added
Total Is SS2 Below
1916

In Harrisburg 1924 voters regis
tered for the primary and November
elections, according to totals compiled
to-day at the county commissioners
office from the returns of the regis
trars in the fifty-three city districts.
including the Fourteenth ward.
This is a decrease of SS2 as COM
pared with last years record total of
1885 for the presidential election.
Part of this decrease. according to Of
hcials, is due to the number of men
from Harrisburg who have enlisted in
various branches of the United States
Army and National Guard. A number
of voters who were out of the city
on the registration days came to the
county commissioners office to be
registered to-day.
Heaviest In Second
The heaviest registration was in
the Second precinct of the Tenth ward
where 459 voters were enrolled. Last
year there were 492 listed in this
district. only ten of the fifty-three
districts showed increases, these
ranging from two to nineteen. In
the Fourteenth ward on Saturday 12S
voters were registered.
Ballots for the various election dis
tricts in the city and county are being
distributed. Because express COM
panies would not guarantee prompt
shipment to a number of county dis
tricts. the county commissioners were
forced to obtain automobiles to have
the ballots, return sheets and other
supplies delivered.
The city registration for 1917 anc
1916 follows:
