London Now Hears Of Nut

Among Soldiers in the

LONDON. Oct, ii.-Havlng faced
what was established today as a wide
spread revolt in the navy and with
mutterlngs OF discomfort In the army.
the German military machine was ex-
pected by observers here TO seek eradi-
cation Of all opposing elements by new
iron hand methods.
News Of Reichstag sessions OF the
next few days will be eagerly awaited
here Belief was expressed In some
quarters that German 'militarlsts have
obtained the opportunity afforded by
their preliminary suppression Of re-
volt TO sweep away all radicals. The
independent Socialists OF the type OF
Liebknecht, Ledebour and Haase have
always been thorns In the side OF the
/ pan-Germans. Llebknccht was re-
moved by imposition Of a long term OF
Imprisonment because he circulated pc
titlons for stoppage OF the war. That
was several months ago. His work OF
| internatiOnallsm was taken up by
Ledebour, Haase and a small minor
| ity group Of Socialists. They have con-
stantly harrassed the government. Now
! the government rctallates by seeking
20 connect them with the naval revolt.
The first outbreak Of the uprising in
the navy occurred about September 4
according 90 Holland dispatches today
u was at Wllhelmshaven. The move
ment was widespread and organized
and was suppressed only with th'
greatest difficulty. AZ least four bat

tive TO Or. Garfeld's order issued sew

who is thoroughly familiar with the
governments ideas along the line Of
price fixing, not only explains away
any difficulty as to understanding this
order, but he also makes clear how
retail dealers shall ascertain the aver
age cost Of coal or coke which they
are TO charge the consumer. Mir. Ten
Weegcs states that any information le
may be able to give on the subject
will be furnished by him at all times.
and ne holds himself i'm readiness 20 be
Of assistance in this matter in any way
he can.
Mr.. Ten Weeges' statement follows:
1.-The dealers and the public being
somewhat in doubt regarding the order
OF DR.. Garfield, issued under date Of
october 4, 1917, the following abstracts
OF such order are here given for their
benefit and guidance:
"On and after the first of October
1917, in making prices and sales TO
consumers the retail gross margin
(as hereinafter dehned) added by any
retail dealer to the average cost
determined as hereinafter provided
OF any size or grade of coal or coke
