Day in and day out, over city streets

In spite Of the stiff grind-more than

mileage Of more than 1900 miles, while
seven, eight and ten thousand miles

'The benefit derived by road test

'lies in the fact that it soon shows up

 There were very few miners at work
 Festerday, according to MT. Couch.
 "The situation is alarming.' said
 Mir. Couch last night. and although
 Re have had less coal than we nave
 bow. still we had coal moving every
 lay and were receiving some each day. Now, however, the weather conditions
 have prevented the moving of any coal bnd the present supply is very limited bll over the state.
