NEW YORK;. Dec. 14.-Homes and industries in New York were confront ed tonight with the most serious coal shortage in the citys history because of inability to get supplies across the river on barges from New Jersey tide water points where thousands of tons are ice bound. The situation, which was already bad. was greatly aggraVat- ed by last nights storm.
 An investigation by the fuel admin istration today disclosed that nearly onehalf of the cits-s coa. yards are empty, while others have only few tons on hand Thousands of families have no coal to heat their homes and scores of the citys manufacturing plants are said to be on the verge of shutting down.

War In Brief
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

Notwithstanding untoward occur rences the allied forces in their warfare against the central powers are making steady progress toward victory and peace proposals to Germany's militar- istic party. which at present is drunk with boastfulness. would be a betrayal of the trust
 Thus in forceful form the British premier. David Lloyd George. has sum marized the situation in the world war from the viewpoint of himself as head of the British government and of his colleagues
 The premier said il was folly to ex- aggerate the situation created by the events in Russia and the possibility Of the release of hundreds of thousands of the enemy to attack Great Britain. France and Italy. but that if Russia had decided to abandon the struggle the American democracy was taking it up. Germany, he added. was gam bling on the failure of the United States to transport her army to Europe and the future of the world depended on the efforts of Great Britain and the United States to increase their output of ships next year.
 On the fighting fronts there has been everywhere a great decrease iu the activity of the infantry. but artillery duels of huge proportions continue be- tween the British and the French and the Germans in France and the Italians and the Austro- Hungarians on the Italian front. To the east of YpreS the Germans in a local attack have cap tured British front line trenches on a front of three hundred yards while the Germans s according to the Berlin Of ficial communication. have repulsed a British attack in the Cambrai sector east of Bullecourt, launched in aD en- deaVor to recapture lost positions The Germans are carrying out a heavy bombardment in the latter region The big guns are doing most of the work on the Italian front, where the Italians still are barring the way of the Teutonic allies toward the plains. In Thursdays fighting the enemy in attacks between the Brenta and Piave rivers again made an insignificant gain, but as on previous occasions only under huge sacrifices of men.
 The situation in Russia where the BolsheViki and er-revolutionary forces are arrayed against each other, is still obscure, unofficial dispatches reporting successes for each side. Negotiations for an armistice con- i tinue between the Teutonic allies and the Bolsheviki Unofficial advices at tributed to the Bolsheviki foreign min : ! ister make the announcement that If an armistice is signed the Russian delegates have been empowered to en- ter into peace negotiations.
 LONDON, Dec 1.-The Germans succeeded in entering British first line trench on a front of about 300 yards at one point in the Ypres sector
 in Flanders, tonights official state ment says. The enemys infantry at tacks were repulsed elsewhere on that
 sector. On the Cambrai front the hos l tile artillery developed great activity | oort D,1llaaa,trt
