NATIONAL FUEL SITUATION.
CONTINUED from Page y

To clear up the congestion of ship
ping at principal Atlatic ports result
ing from the famine of bunker coal
Fuel Administrator Garfield has selected
a special assistant to take charge Of
bunkering at the ports. The coal is
assured by the fuel administrator s or
der. Mines producing coal under con-
tract to industries which will be closed
down will be directed to turn their out
put over to state fuel administrators
under the bill of lading attached.
The treasury department will set
aside $25,000,000 for the purchase Of
this coal. Coal in transit to industries
which will be closed will not be pur-
chased by the government, but divert
ed by state fuel administrators and
turned over to consumers who come
within the preferential list The coal
will be paid for by the ultimate con
signee, who will remit directly to the
mines in which the coal originated
It develops that the order actually
had not been drawn when Mr. Garfield
made his announcement last night and
when the fuel administration issued an
abstract of what it was expected to be-
1t was said that the full text of the or
der could not be prepared in time to
be given out much before this afternoon
and there was some doubt as to wheth-
er its text would be ready for publica-
tlon in evening papers today.
