Des Moines. Oct. 2.-There is small
chance of the Iowa householder get
ting a reduction on the price of coal.
Despite the activities of the govern
ment and the various prices fixed by
Fuel Administrator Garfield Iowa coal
is not only holding up in price to the
high mark set In July but dealers and
operators say 1T will so higher.
AS applied TO parts of the Iowa field
at least DR.. Garfield's prices are no
lower and in some instances not so
low as prices already prevailing His
prices for lump coal in Appanoose
county were announced at 1912. The
Centerville papers are quoting Appa-
moose county coal to consumers at 80
per ton delivered.
The federal prices for coal in Polk
county. as near as can be figured out,
are $4.97 per ton for lump coal deliv-
cred. Dealers and operators are now
asking s. per ton and have been SELL
ing 1t for that since July. They fur
Their say that coal will go up as soon
as cold weather comes, In spite Of any
prices fixed by the government.
People Awaiting Lower Priees.
According to all reports people gen.
orally have postponed buying their win
ter's supply of coal in the hope of gov
eminent action which would cut the
cost This will result In a big rush
for coal when the first nippy weather
comes, and as the severe winter wealth
err approaches the coal will become
scarce, according to all reports.
An abnormal demand for coal from
factories, working night and day TO I'LL
war orders, shortage of freight cars for
shipping and similar causes, dealers
and operators say. have caused real
shortage in coal which is hard to over
come. AS long as manufacturers and
big users of coal. like the railroads and
big corporations. viii bid against each
other for their fuel supply, there is
apparently not much chance for the
average householder.
On his return from coal conference
in Washington Saturday Governor
Harding said he would advise every
householder who could to buy his coal
now. 2EslsfFE

vote by means of the absent ballot.
Those from towns of less than 5000

Bolts Jnbeata 5les, probably the
best football eleven which has repre-

cade, this afternoon are clashing with
the state training school squad from
Mandan in the third regularly sched-
uled game of the 1917 season. In the
opening game of the year, which was
with Devine's Kids, the latter bit the
dust before Bismarck's inVincible on
slaught, and the Capital City squad
hopes to repeat the dose this after
noon.
The Bismarck bunch will be Grip
pied to some extent by the absence
OF its captain star, Couch, who was 50
severely injured in the Mandan game

ing kept ont of the battle today, in
order that he may have every chance
to recover full form for the, big bat

comes back for revenge, and will get

Following the game the two football

NO COMMENT TO GIVE.

Washington, Oct. 27.-Announce
ment that American troops were in
the front line trenches in France
marked the beginning of the culminat
ing phase of the training of the Am
erican war army. Neither Secretary
Baker nor any war department Of
ficial would comment on the news
from abroad. 1t was plainly indicated
however, that the movement was re
gardcd simply as the final course in
instruction and not real participation
by the American troops in the war
The fact that quiet sector OF the
French line had been selected for
this final training work is evidence
that the American front will be To-
Gated elsewhere.
