NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-Weather hard
 ened mariners along the water front
 shivered tonight as they gossiped about the perilous voyage on an ice
 floe early today by William W. Young,
 boatswain on an American coastwise steamer. Although he was rescued un- conscious after floating down the bay
 with the thermometer below zero, the
 hero of the sailors yarn expects to go
 back to work after he gets thoroughly
 thawed out at the hospital to which
 he was taken.
 Young was adjusting the falls on a small boat when he fell overboard He
 remembers struggling through the water until he sighted a huge cake of ice onto which he clambered. That's about all the first hand information he is able to give, for he became uncon- scious from exposure and did not re- | cover until he was picked up by the | lighthouse tender Lockspur. When Young tumbled overheard the steamer was stopped and a small boat | launched but the tide was swift and his mates were able to find no trace 1 Of him. When the ship came to it's dock he had been given up for lost, for l no one thought he had even a fighting chance for life, but it was said at the hospital that he was not even frost 1 bitten.

 Fire tugs from the navy yard early in the day took up positions on the water front three blocks away and pumped tons of water into the burning buildings, but the block on Granby street from City Hall avenue to Taze- well street virtually was destroyed, only two buildings, the Dixon and Commer- cial structures, both new. escaping de- struction. They were badly damaged.
 Just at dusk the fire in the Monti- cello broke out afresh and despite the heroic work of the firemen and sailors, the Lenx, Carpenter and Tazcwell buildings, six story structures across the street, were wrecked. For time the naval Y. M. C. A. was threatened, but the wide lane separating it from the burning buildings enabled the firemen to save it and other large buildings nearby.

COAL SHOULD NON
 BE MOVED FREELY
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. IA state ment issued tonight by the Anthracite Operators Committee says that coal should move more freely to all points of consumption under the orders is sued by the director general of rail- roads.
 After explaining that the hard coal shipments for the first eleven months of 1917 were Is per cent greater than in the same period of 1916, the state ment says:
 "One prime reason for the current shortage of anthracite is the new large and abnormal, but, under the circum- stances, imperative demand from the government for the army cantonments and other needs.
 War conditions have caused a great Influx of population from the rest of the country into the anthracite con- suming territory, adding greatly to the demand for hard coal It is estimated that the population of Philadelphia has increased in the last year by a hun dred thousand, or three times the nor mai increase and as a result there is now pressing housing problem.
 Under ordinary circumstances quite three-quarterS or the marketable out put of anthracite is consumed in Pennsylvania. New Jersey. New York, Delaware and New England It is in this territory that the war industries are primarily located so it will be seen that the shifting of population from south and west is greatly responsible Or the present unusual demand for lard coal.
 Under these circumstances non- essential uses for anthracite should be eliminated as far as possible to insure .uel supply to householders.'
