Snow Hampers Traffic
The snow this morning effected
operation of the steel plant slightly.
Most of the trouble was reported by
the transportation department. Much
difficulty was experienced in the
operation of engines in the yards.
This tied up the freight movement
there during the entire morning.

ARRIVAL OF COAL
RELIEVES SHORTAGE

inous coal was received yesterday.
While the coal shortage has been
slightly relieved by the shipments
of coal into the city, dealers this
morning were pessimistic regarding
deliveries stating that the days
snow storm will hold back their de-
liveries so per cent. Many OF the
dealers are urging their customers to
cooperate as far as possible by ma
king their own deliveries.
Dealers in the Hill district, who
have not been supplied with anthra-
cite coal for weeks, are being stocked
with bituminous, if they signify
their desire to handle bituminous to
Fuel Administrators Hickok. Four of
the dealers on the Hill district have
received bituminous coal yesterday
or to-day. Some of them report that
the soft variety is finding a ready
sale. while others said this morning
that 1t is not very popular. Coal deal
ers, said Mr.. Hickok, say that the
idea that bituminous coal will not
give satisfaction is erroneous. Many
of the dealers say that the bitumi-
nous coal burns easier and gives
better heat than anthracite.
The fuel administration investi-
eating bureau yesterday received 800
calls for immediate assistance from
people suffering from the coal short
age. SiXty-tWo of these cases were
relieved by the board, when investi-
cation showed them to be urgent. OF
the siXty-two cases relieved, thirty
were cases where there is serious
sickness in the household. The short
age had reached such an acute stage
yesterday, and the suffering in some
cases was so serious, that the in
vestigating board did not have the
cases Investigated by the police be-
fore they delivered the coal. Wher-
ever the board received a call from
a physician certifying the urgent
need of family for immediate re-
lief, coal was Immediately delivered
The relief board yesterday supplied
most of the urgent cases with bitumi-
nous coal. Where anthracite was to
be had, it was so scarce that the
dealers mixed it with bituminous,
and doled the mixture out in half
and quarter tons.
Deliveries were so difficult to-day,
that several patriotic companies
came forward with trucks and men
to handle them, to aid the emergency
relief board in their delivery to the
needy. Trucks and men. to handle
them, have been donated by Evans
