IF Hoarding is Discovered

WASHINGTON. Oct. 19.-No official
report OF a coal shortage in New York
City has yet been communicated 10 the
Fuel Administration. according 10 a
statement made by DR.. Harry A. Gar
field to-day. If such q shortage exists
and officials of the Fuel Administra-
ton express doubt regarding its exist
ence-no action will be taken by
Washington authorities until II is Off
cially reported by Alfred II. Wiggin,
the New York State Fuel Admins
traitor.
The Fuel Administration called at
tention again to-day 10 the greatly IN
creased shipments Of anthracite coal to
New York during the first eight months
of this year over the corresponding
period last year In 1916 New York
City. il was stated, received during
eight months 1860. 666 tons, while this
wear during the same period the city
received 13,912,3s4. =,
II a shortage exists it is probably
due TO boarding rather than the alb.
scnce of a supply, in the opinion o.;
Mr.. Garfield, and IL boarding ia proved
the government will commander and
distribute the supply.
If A shortage in New York supply IS
reported by Mr.. Wiggin, IT was stated,
the Fuel Administration will immedi-
ately order that priority be gwen TO
shipments of New York coal from the
mines.

Special Correspondence

CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-Caught with
great surplus OF cold storage eggs on
which they are losing $500 a car at
present prices, Chicago egg spectators
have appealed to the government to
save them, by making cold storage eggs
a part Of the army ration. If their
plea lie granted, the egg may endanger
the supremacy Of the army bean in the
soldiers diet.
Incidentally, spectators who, last
spring, when eggs were at record
breaking prices, gsmbled on a short
age, are asking that their losses be
wiped out and an actual priht be guar
anteed 70 them by the government.
They are asking not only that the
army ration be changed to accomplish
this, but that the government fix the
price of eggs by increasing the present
market rates so as TO give the specula-
tors 10 per cent over cost.
Government reports show that there
are SSS,l75 cases. or 26615,250 dozen,
more eggs in storage this month than
a year ago. They were bought in April
at an average Of 37l2 cents a dozen. In
1916, the April storage eggs were put
away at an average cost Of rs 10 q
cents. Storage eggs are now selling
wholesale at 1914 cents a dozen, or an
average loss of 2% cents a dozen,
which figures up s400 car.
The reasons for the big surplus are
