GREAT SUFFERING AMONG
PEOPLE OF COLUMN

COLUMBUS, OHIO. October ~
There was great suffering among the
people of this city to-day due to freez-
ing weather coming at a time when
coal was not to be secured by tho ma
jority, under any conditions.
Street car lines were tied up several
hours because of the coal shortage.
Schools here and In other cities were
closed. Houses whose occupants had
been unable to purchase even tenn
porary supply Of fuel. were unheated.
and the less vigorous. especially wo-
men. children and invalids. suffered Sc
verely from the cold.
Mayors of various cities are asking
authority to confscate coal from rail-
road cars. but they have been warned
that such action would be contrary to
law. Drastic action of some kind will
have to be taken. It was predicted to-
night. unless relief is afforded imme-
diately
Gas companies found themselves I'M
able to meet the extra demand for gas
for heating purposes.
In Cincinnati. the Union Gas and
Electric Company cut off all. save do
nestle consumers, to give as much
pressure as possible to heat dwellings.

stands. there is no provision for the
exemption Of classes.
Officials who want general exemp-
ton policy carried out point to The eN
perience OF Great Britain. where thou
81 nds OF skilled workmen who volun-
teercd early in the war were taken
from the trenches and sent back home
to resume their occupations. They be-
love that II n general exemption policy
is not enforced. II will become neces-
sary to remove men from the nonossen-
tinl Industries to those which must be
maintained during the war
Suggestions Of conscription OF labor
for employment In industries have not
been considered seriously. although 1t
Is likely that men may be asked to
volunteer for selected work, such as
the cutting Of spruce timber in the
West for tho manufacturing OF aircraft.
Recruiting labor generally. however.
officials say. will not prove successful.

Neville lost much of his usual COM
posture to-day and became especially
FESTIVE and disturbed during tho two
hour speech OF Solicitor Norris, In
which he was scathingly denounced,
and his evidence and that of his abb
witnesses picked to pieces.
A feature Of his speech was a pro-
nouncement Of supreme necessity Of
protection by the courts for the women
OF tho working men in their homes
where they are necessarily much alone
and defenseless. The Seleys and their
friends had blded the action of this
court. Norris stated, and they must
not BIO rewarded by anything short OF
prompt conviction on the evidence and
tho extreme penalty for the prisoner.
