[tlon board, stated today thataa eur
Vey Of, the hard coal on the Duluth
superior docks just made shoTs a
fetal Of $1,000 tons which will nave
to s supply the entire northwestern
states. At, the opening Of navigation
in 1915 there were 100000 tons on
hand, and 1916 was az short year.
The soft coal situation also is report
ed alarming. The territory to re-
ceive coal from this port steadily is
being enlarged and now includes dou-
BILE the ordinary territory because of

coal was. dispatched to Madison, Wis

unless the transportation and fuel
situations improved very much ii
would be necessary to go through

Mir. Draper's loss was about

sunk. Mir. Draper's loss was about $250.
 The electric light plant of the Ar kansas Light & Power Company was unroofed. A freak of the storm oc- cured here when the wind unsrewed the whistle at the plant without dam aging any other piece of machinery near it. The whistle was screwed down tight and had not been moved in fifteen years. The company's loss was about $50.
 Four white way posts were blown down on Front street.
 The houseboat of Al Murphy was unroofed and capsized.
 The Rustler, gasoline boat owned by Geo. Holderby was unroofed but was not sunk. One of Mir. Holderby's boys experienced marrow escape from injury.
 The boat of Harry Lance was struck by the waves, which were sev- en feet high, and filled with water, though it did not sink.
 A boat occupied by MT. and Mrs. Hunter Sweat was torn loose from it's moorings on the north side of the river and blown across to this side. Neither of them was hurt.
 The tailor shop of o. R. Crosby on Front street sustained slight damage.
 Burt's barber shop was unroofed and the plate glass window broken. Damage about $100.
 A. Bowie sustained damage to the extent of $25 when the front window of his grocery store was wrecked, and his delivery wagon partly demolished. Another freak of the storm occurred here when the horse hitched to the wagon was not injured.
 The plate glass window and doors of the Morgan Five and Ten Cent store were damaged.
 Reports from other sections of the country do net tell of unusually high winds, and it is believed the tornado gathered and spent itself in this city. A heavy rain followed the tornado, and the work of clearing away the wreckage was started under difficult circumstances.
