Coiored Mans Presence of Mind Saves
Lives of Animals After Milk Wauon
Crash Near Mcdonald Garage.

What might have proven a very
serious and costly accident was avert.
ed Friday afternoon about 430. Aug
ust 18th, when James Coleman, a. col
ored man, working ON the excavation
Of McDonald's garage, caught the
runaway team of George Radman,
the milk distributor of Ray, and ex-
tricated it from it's perilous position.
The animals took fright near Loo
Chong's corner and dashed madly UP
the road toward the steel bridge that
crosses Mineral Creek Just as the
team, pulling the covered wagon,
loaded with milk, passed McDonald's
plate glass windows they ran into an
other wagon, which was empty. They
did not attempt to swerve 10 the
right or left. If they had done so, it
was a case of either going over the
embankment or running into the gar.
age. building, so one of the animals
succeeded in jumping up into the
empty wagon and the other very nice
ly forced himself under it. The mare
that leaped into the wagon was Sc
verely cut and bruised
The thoughtfulness and skill of
James Coleman alone prevented the
loss of the animals life. She, in her
mad scramble, severed an artery, and
James rushed to the rescue, and af-.
ter extricating her from the tangled
mass of horse flesh, harness and wag-
ons, he applied a tourniquet and
stopped the bleeding. Very solicit.
ously he watched over the animal un-
til the arrival of the owner.

COPPER SLOW BUT GERMANY MAY BUY SOON;
BUSINESS GOOD, SAYS WASHINGTON RESUME

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 22.-
There is little change in the copper
market, but it is expected that large
consumers will enter the market
again at the end of this month. Cur
rent sales are small. Brass and wire
makers are busy working up material
bought on the crest of the recent buy
ing wave Although large interests
ask 23R cents a pound for August
and % to "a for September, some
spectators are selling spot metal at
22R. Some producers quote October
at "a. According to one of the best
posted sellers, May, June and July
constituted the crest of the buying
wave, with sales tOtaling more than
600,000,000 pounds May and June bus
mess amounted to a little more than
2O0,000,000 pounds month; while
July transactions were somewhat
heavier.
Practically no domestic inquiry is
appearing for copper. This is not un-
usual at this time of year and is to
be expected after the comparatively
heavy buying during July. Some in
quiry is coming from Germany. Ac-
cording to one seller credit stands in
the way of substantial sales. In his
opinion, when Germany begins to buy,
it will be for individual account on
German private credit and that Ger
many will not attempt to float large
loan here
Germany has bought 1000 tons of
electrolytic copper from the Copper
Export association. The price was
based on current New York quota
tions, the buyers arranging for trans
portation and insurance. The metal,
the first sold to Germany since the
signing of peace, will be delivered
in parts of the country which have
been under military control of the
Allies. Another inquiry for about 10,
600 900 pounds has been received here,
although not through the medium OF
the export combine.
According to an authority we'll quail
fled to speak on the subject, Germany
will soon buy copper here on a large
scale 1t is emphasized that German
must furnish New York credit to
finance her metal purchases, since
German credit is not acceptable to
producers here and domestic demand
is increasing so rapidly that Ameri'
can sellers do not have to accept Ger.
man credit. The trade feels that this
situation will soon be clarified. For
six months past the German copper
trade has been busy. Whatever cop
per the Government had on hand when
the armistice was signed was turned
over to the copper trade. The supply
now in Germany is believed to be
almost exhausted.

HOTELS ON PLAZA RUN
Federal Employees Union Official
Says Col. Sanctuary Not to
Blame for Discomfort.

Federal Employees Union No 2. num-
bering 10000 members. last night
took a position against the manage
ment of the government hotels on the
Union station plaza.
Speaking for the union. A. E. Cole,
organizer, declared that Col. E. N.
Sanctuary, to whom James H. Weaver,
manager Of the hotels. recently wrote
a letter requesting that he desist
from attending meetings of war
workers in the plaza colony. was in
no way responsible for the discomfort
that is being manifested at the hotels.
"A proposed congressional fnvesti-
cation will undoubtedly prove this
statement true" declared Mr.. Cole.
THE organization that has been
started with the object of removing
the management numbers LOO out OF
a possible 1,400 workers at the dormi-
tories. Col. Sanctuary has at all times
rooms to actual war workers, only
trying to carry out this work as the
law provided.
ut is quite natural that these wom-
en- should turn to him as their friend
when conditions at the dormitories
became unsatisfactory to them. Many
promises on the part of the manage
ment have been made since this or
ganization was started. The opening
Of the second dining room Is one of
the few promises which have been
carried out.
LAS a result the Federal Employees
Union, Local No. 2. shall do every
thing in its power to encourage any
organization that can bring about
just and bearable living conditions
