COAL FIRM INDICTED
FOR EXCESS CHARGES
Orr Company and Its Presi-
dent Accused of Profteer-
ing in City

Two indictments for alleged proiitecr-
ing in coal. the first in this district since
IN" Presidents regulations fixing coal
prices went into effect, We're returned
TINS afternoon against the Orr coal Min
ing company. of tlarkshurg. W. Va.
and James NJ. orr, rresidcn; of the COM
panT, OF the same place.
II is alleged that though the company
billed hituminous coal to consumers at
the prices fixed by the President. IL re-
ccived under a prior secret arrangement
with certain customers prices ranging
from scNenty-thrce cents to 81 Il ton in
excess Of the allowable amount,
The excess was collected. It Was de-
clarcd by u Government official. 10y.
Charles T. Schcctman. the Philadelphia
representative of the Drr Company.
ScheCtman. who had an Office in the
Land Title Building. was one Of the
witnesses for the Government befory
tn" Grand Jury.
Tho technical charge against tho coal
mining company Is asking higher
prices for bituminouS coal than that
fixed by the President" while the charge
against orr th" company's president. IS
conspiracy to ask higher prices, etc"
The method of obtaining the excess
prices. according to Assistant District
Attorney Sterrett, was for SchcCtman to
have an understanding with manufa ctur-
ing plants for the sale Of hitumiuouS
coal at prices higher than those fixed
by the President, but to cover up the
real transaction by having the rccelpted
bills show that only the fixed price was
paid, while the excess was paid in cash,
which was later transmitted TO Orr.
Four companies in Philadelphia and
vicinity paid heavy oNcesses according
to the indictment The Belber Trunk
and Bag Company paid $75, Girard
Smelling and Refining Company. $257.
and the |. y. Thomas Company, S73.
The fourth company, the Edison Port
land Cement Company, of Easton, Pa,
paid excess charges amounting to
SlT5l, 1t is alleged. This sum, II was
declared, was brought to this sty in
cash by William \. Horne, secretary o.
the company. and turned over to
Schectman.
These companies Government Of
flcal said. consented to pay the excess
because OF the necessity of having fuel
to keep their plants la operation.
The trial of orr and the mining
company has been tentatively fixed for
February 25.

VICIOUS DOG KILLED
AFTER MUCH TROUBLE
NARROW ESCAPE IN
DRIVING ACCIDENT

The police officers today rounded
up several dogs and turned them
over to the tender mercies of Janitor
Rhodes, who, with plentiful sup
ply of chlorolorm. sent them, as
we'll as several cats, to the heaven
created for them-thus Kidding the
community of that many pests.
One of the dogs, bad actor that
has held forth on Boyd avenue for
many months, was ordered killed
several weeks ago by the city Off.
Gals, but the police were unable
to get hold of him, the dog seeming
ly knowing a policeman's uniform
nd hidp ~ssn'ver an officer came
in sight. This afternoon Chief Da-
vison and officers Snyder and Har-
dy caught the animal, and he was
later sent to the great beyant. This
dog had attacked many children
and ponies during the past year or
two, and there was much complaint
about him. This morning he sprang
at pony ridden by the little daugh,
ter of Mr. and Mrs. H. l.. Alexan-
der, who was riding out Boyd ave-
rue, and the child was thrown to
the ground and cut about the head.
