 Dr. Garfield said that reports of a coal famine in Chicago were not borne out by official information and that the coal on hand there, both anthracite and bitumiil- ous, is greater than d year ago. He said that figures supplied the administration by the federal trade commission disclose that 70 coal dealers in Chicago received 252, 791 tons more of bituminous and an- thracite coal between April l, 1917, and October than during the same period of 1916. The increase in anthracite alone was 79.706 tons.
 Chicago's coal stock on hand October | according to 6S dealers reporting to the trade commission, was 160414 tons, wni:o their total amount of thrilled orders was only for 50.062. The 6S dealers had on hand 929l6 tons on October last year
 At the offices of the administration to- day it was stated that investigation had disclosed a dozen cases of hoarding By industrial concerns in the middle west.

1 Riga sector, including the capture of Oesel. Dago and other minor islands Of l the Finnish gulf
 While no attempt should be made to 1 beHttle the importance of the positions l gained by the enemy, we cannot fail to record that 1t is apparent that the Ger mans understook this expedition with a view to bolstering up the morale of 1 the country, more particularly in order
 to be able to meet the impending internal
 difficulties which threaten to culminate 1 i'll renewed cabinet crisis in the near l future.
 The German higher command has in variably picked out a weakened objec- ] tive in order to be able to record sue i cess which should be of political rather
 than military value. The islands of the Finnish coast in the hands of the enemy 1 in no way offset the recent allied vic- l tories in Flanders. Sound strategy de-
 mands that no such diversion of forces I be undertaken at so crucial a moment. 1 If the enemy had any confidence in l being able to stem successfully the tide | of allied advance in the west he would | throw every ounce of his strength into 1 the balance i'll Flanders and, if possible, 1 by crushing the allied armies, bring l about peace with victory which the German has often stated as his objective. Germany. by extending her lines into the east, has merely added to the length of her line of communications. Thus, the events in Russia today should cause us
 to have increasing confidence in final al lied victory.
 Along the western front trench raids as well as the usual artillery duels arc reported. Isolated counter attacks were conducted by the enemy in such man. ner as to indicate that no real success was expected. but merely serve to keep tip the aggressive spirit of the troops It is evident that the terrible punishment , by allied artillery fire is beginning to have a very decided effect along the western front.
 Never before in any series of en- agreements have so many German di- visions, after brief encounters, been withdrawn and replaced by fresh troops Deserters from German ranks taken into the allied lines have become increasing Fly numerous.
 "Rumors of an impending Austrian of- fensivc directed against Italy have been current during the past week. Reports of concentrations of Austrian and Ger man divisions to take part in this at tack are noted Any one familiar with the situation can at once determine that these rumors are exaggerated. Even should the season permit it, the concen- tration of the number of fresh enemy di- visions estimated as high as 40 could not, as a physical possibility, take place in the narrow Trentino valley, fed by single railway system

COAL MINE SITUATION
 NV THE MIDDLE WEST

Washington, October 22--The following telegram summarizing the. middle west strike situation was received by Dr. Gar field from John F. White, president of the United Mine Workers of America, who is dealing with the situation from his headquarters at Indianapolis:
 "All miners resumed work in Indiana this morning and practically all in Ohio. Latest reports from Illinois are that al, mines are resumins i'll line with our in- structions.''
 MT. White left here last week to under take personally the task of inducing the several thousand idle miners to resume work. He prophesied then that the men would go back to work this week. The strike situation in the southwest is un- changed. so far as the government Is ad- vised. the men there holding out on ad- vice of their leaders on account of the operators penalty against strikers.

Tuscaloosa, October 22--( Especial Signed statements have been issued by John Tippen, city editor of the Tus caloosa News, Luther B. Gordon, fore man of the composing room, who were eyewitnesses to the last part of the assault on Editor Edward Doty Sat- urday Although the statement of MT, T1ppen was issued before he had seen a copy of MT. Doty's statement, the two coincide exactly While Tippei says he did not hear Moody threaten the life or Doty, it is explained that during the confusion and excitement, he did not see nor hear all that occurred, nor does he know what happened while he was gone for the police. Tippen's statement follows:

FEARFUL STORIES
 TOLD OF RIOTS IN EAST SI. LOUIS

East St. Louis, Ill. October 22.-Testi- mony that during the race riots here July mob threw a negro child into a buring house after it had escaped from the flames, was given at the congress sional inquiry into the riots today by Edwin Popkess, reporter for St. Louis, Mo, newspaper.
 He said he also saw four or five na- tional guardsmen shoot and kill two ne- srofs who ran from a burning house.
 Inquiry into political conditions in East St. Louis was continued.
 Paul Y. Anderson, a newspaper re- porter. who testified Saturday, resumed his story today. He said that before Federal Judge Landis ordered a refor- mation last November, many saloons in the city were conducted in disorderly manner and were the chief breeding places of crime.
 The Iawless element that frequented these saloons, he thought, was the same element that took part in the race riots. Why didn't the business men of East st. Louis wipe out the lawless para sites?" asked Congressman Raker
 Anderson replied that the lawless ele- ment had been so powerful for years that political parties played for its sup port. He described the housing conditions of many negroes in East St. Louis as un- sanitary.
 "Yes, interJected Congressman Coop CT, 1T suppose the houses were not fit for dogs to live in. It seems cruel that people willing to live under such condi- tions will work for a lower wage than those who demand better homes.''
 John w. Patton, general manager of the Morris & Go. packing, plant, said his plants had a wage scale. .'Yes,r said Congressman Cooper. you have scale, and Swifts has a scale and

Inc, in a statement today called upon the chap ters and members of that organiza tion to cooperate in organizing the naval auxiliaries and urged upon tho women of the country the necessity of working for the comfort of the men.

WEEkL Y REVIEW OF
 WAR DEPARTMENT

Washington, October 22--Afilitary ex- perts here do not expect winter to halt the great allied drive against the Ger mans in Flanders. Secretary Bakers < weekly review of war operations, issued tonight, discloses the belief of the wal department that potency of material and men will enable the British and French commanders to triumph over natural oh- stacles and continue forcing the enemy backward without waiting for spring.
 The review touches for the first time upon the American expeditionary forces in France, declaring the men, after three ficient fighting trim and splendid physi- cal condition.
 In dwelling upon the importance of the battle of Flanders and it's effect upon the morale of the Germans, the war secre- tary declares it is apparent that the Ger man high command planned the recent expedition against the Russians in the Riga sector in order to bolster up morale and meet impending internal difficulties. By extending her lines in the east, he adds, Germany has merely added to the length of her line of communications and increases confidence in the final allied victory.
 The review. covering the week ending October 20 follows:
 Our men in France, after three months intensive training, are in splen- did physical condition and efficient fight ing trim. They have really become ac- climated and now feel at home in the war zone.
 Our troops have met with the most warm hearted and enthusiastic reception on the part of the armies and people oe France. The health of our men overseas is reported as excellent.
 'The week just closed has been one of relative quiet on all fronts.
 Bad weather already prevails along the western front, wintry conditions will soon set in and the terrain will become difficult for attacking troops Nevertheless, the potency of al of the technical means of combat and the which have been going on for many months will make it possible for the British and French commanders to triumph over natural obstacles and with few short intervals we may expect the offensive to press forward.
 "It is not anticipated that the allies will go into winter quarters this year.
 'The full importance of the battle in Flanders is beginning to be revealed. In order to appreciate the real significance of this engagement and the effect 1t has had on the morale of the German army and the German people, we must con slider briefly the German attacks in tho

HaLian Biplane, With
 Eight Passengers, Breaks
 AM Records in the Air

Mineola, N. T., October 22.--Carrying eight passengers. Lieutenant Resnati z isarrived at the government aviation field here in his Caprani biplane at 4:21 o'clock this afternoon, complet- ing a flight of about 325 miles from Hampton, Va. in four hours and II minutes.
 According to officers of the, Aero Club of America. the flight breaks all records in the United States for ma chimes carrying two or more passen- gers. In 1916 flight was made by a pilot and two passengers from New port News to Sheepshead Bay, N. Y, distance about 20 miles shorter than Lieutenant Resnati's achievement, with while the only flight with as many as eight passengers made in this coun- try before, the clubs records show, was between Newport News and Ball. timore. M
 Resnati did not use triplane in making the trip as intended. This
