COAL SAVING
PLAN ON FOOT

HEATLESS, LiGHTLESS RULES
NEXT WINTER.

Kansas City, Mo-. Feb. PA coal
conservation program for the central
west that it is hoped will eliminate
the heatless and lightless days ard
nights next winter was to be worked
out today at meeting Of state and
local fuel, administrators, transporta-
ton men and mine operators here with
H. N. Taylor, fuel distributor for the
seventeenth zone. State fuel admin
istrators expected to attend include:
Emerson Carey, Kansas; Wallace
Crossley, Missouri; John L. Kennedy,
Nebraska; Charles Webster, Iowa;
H. C. Couch, Arkansas. and J. w.
Hinton, Oklahoma. Large railways
and coal companies Of the zone also
are expected to be represented.
1t is hoped that plans will be made
to induce consumers to lay In coal sup
plies during the summer, thus releas-
ing cars for war transportation needs
next winter and obviating the posi-
bility of a sudden rush for coal when
severe weather comes with its accom-
panying heavy demands on railways.
Matters relating to distribution and
obtaining better grades Of coal also are
to be considered.

TO ELIMINATE
TRAIN WASTE
COMPETITION FOR PASSENGER
BUSINESS WILL BE- THING
OF PAST

Washington, D. c., Feb. 21.-Fast
passenger train competition between
New York and Chicago, Chicago and
St Louis, Washington and southern
points and other important passenger
terminals will be eliminated soon, the
railroad administration announced
today. Certain roads will be selected
for fast passenger trains and other
lines devoted more extensively to
freight traffic.
Investigation has been made by A.
P. Smith. regional director for the
east, to determine whether the New
York Central, Pennsylvania or Balti.
more and Ohio should be used for fast
passenger trains between New York
and Chicago. It is understood the
New York Central is being considered
most favorably because of heavy
freight of the other two lines. The
elimination between Chicago and st.
Louis is under consideration by R. H.
Ashton. regional director at Chicago.
C. H. Markham, regional director Tor
the south, is working on changes to
be made there.
By this means the railroad admins
traitor hopes to save many millions OF
dollars without mountaineering pas
senger traffic.
In many cases officials point out the
fast trains running in competition are
only partially filled.

Hardin, Manchuria, Feb. 16.-(De-
layed)-German goods already have
reappeared far east of lrkutsk, ac-
cording to information received here.
German merchants are active IN
Hardin and the bolsheviki are arming
released German prisoners to guard
the Siberian railway and facilitate the
movement of traffic.
A British mining engineer named
Piper who has arrived here from
Krasgosy, says that the bolsheviki
have seized the gold mines there and
that Austro-Germans are working
them. The Austro-Germans have
plenty Of money and are purchasing
permits allowing them to circulate
freely in Siberia The Germans are
taking charge of electric power sta
lions, railways and depots. Quantities
OF raw materials are being shipped to
Germany from the district. Most of
the Germans are said to speak Rus
sian.
Piper declares that unless the allies
take immediate steps to s"ad supplies
and raw materials into Siberia the in
tellectual and peasant classes will
throw themselves into the hands Of
the Germans. Goods are being sold
Mt pre.war prices by the Germans who
are also securing contracts and cen.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 21.-Six

3 The representatives Of the three

ing taken to primary markets in the
west each day. Although in Decem-

SWER CALL, MANY WAVING
UNION RULES

Washington, D. c., Feb. 21.-Prelim-
iuary estimates of the results of the
campaign to enroll 250,000 ship work
ers show that the number sought will
be much exceeded and that thousands
OF union men have joined without re-
strictions against working with I'M
organized workers.
The fact that no restrictions have
teen imposed by the men on their
willingness to work makes officials Of
the department of labor confident
that the employers will meet all fair
demands. Thousands of union men
have signified their readiness to re-
port at the ship yards when needed
TO work side by side with all others
who may be qualified, whether union
members or not.
The only thing asked, and that has
already sbeen granted, by the shipping
board, is that union organizers be
given full liberty to enroll new men
in the union if they desire to join. It
is expected that adequate housing
facilities will be provided under the
governments program.
Wages have not proved stumbling
block to the enrolment Of ship build
crs. The building trades council Of
New York, in pledging its 100000
members to ship yard service II need.
ed, said the metropolitan scale should
he given instead of the ship yard
scale, but the change was not made a
condition Of work. ~
The iron trades reported readiness
tn work at any wage necessary to
bring victory in the war.

HUNS TAKE MANY CITIES

ASSOCIATED Press Summary.N
From the gulf of Finland to the
southern border of Volhynia the Ger
man advance into Russia is progress
ing. The main objects are said to be
Reval, on the coast of Estonia; Pskofl,
between Dvinsk and Petrograd. and
the important centers of Minsk and
Vitebask.
Hapsalan and Werder, in Esthonla,
southeast of Reval, have been occu-
pied. The invaders also are near
Pskoff, Mohilev and Minsk. The I'M
portant railway junction of Molodech-
no, fifty miles northwest OF Minsk,
is reported to have been captured by
the TeutQns.
The occupation of Dvinsk on Mon
day was complete surprise to the
civilian and military population. The
Germans met with hardly any resist
ance and took artillery and much am
munition.
The German advance probably will
continue until an authenticated mes.
sage announcing surrender is received
from the bolshevik government in
Petrograd.
