Winter Coal.

The Colorado Retail Dealers
Association advise consumers
of coal to lay in their winter
supply of coal. They say. for a
number of reasons. there will
be a shortage of coal 10 the com
ing winter and that of course
always means higher prices for
coal. They claim an increased
demand. decreased prodsetion
shortage of labor. lack Of trans
portation. higher cost of doing
business and a failure on the
part of the public to realize the
enecessity of laying in q supply
for the winter.

flooded with bulletins from
these bureaus aud not one out
of fifty of these bulletins were
of any benefit whatever to the
publisl1er and - q matter OF
course were thrown into the
waste paper basket. These bul
letins were worse than Q waste
of paper and the country press
time and again called attention
to this fact withoat results.

! WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-President
Samuel Gompers, of the American
Federation of Labor is seriously i'll
at his home here today and will be
unable to attend sessions of the ma
tional industrial conference today.
Gompers' illness was announced by
members Of the labor group which
Gompers has led since the start OF
the confernece.
The statement announcing Comp.
ers illness said:
"Mr. Gompers' returned home from
the Industrial conference last even
ing very greatly exhausted and inn
mediately went to bed. His physi
clan, DR.. Henry Parker, was called
to see him. He found Mr.. Gompers
in a state Of nervous exhaustion with
"a temperature of 101 degrees. The
doctor said 1t would be absolutely
necessary for Mr.. Gompers to remain
In bed"
Gompers' illness followed speech
urging adoption of the resolution to
mediate the steel strike at the con.
ference yesterday.
Gompers was suffering unusual de-
preston yesterday because of the
fact that it was the anniversary of his
daughters death. His wife suffered a
paralytic stroke last June and has
been helpless since. Gompers never
fully recovered his strength since his
accident several months ago in New
York. The cumulative effect of his
cares and his own physical suffering
have made his lieutenants in the labor
movement uneasy concerning him for
some time.

Arbitration Of Disputes
WASHINGTON, Oct. Is. The
three major groups of the national
industrial conference went into
executive session this morning TO
work on plans for arbitration for all
ulSpuJSS. ut OptLilhS VI
the morning session, scheduled for
1880 a. m, was delayed to permit
the groups to meet. At IL a. m, all
groups were in their committee
rooms.
This move" said Chairman Lane,
will give us time for working out
La plan that it is hoped will meet the
objections of all members and will
dispose of the arbitration question
now before the conference"
Defeat of the labor groups pro-
posal for mediation of the steel
strike today seemed certain.
Members OF. the public group, led
by B. M. Baruch fearing an adverse
vote on the steel strike resolution
might cause break in the confer
ence, set to work on new arbitration
plans and so delayed the vote on the
steel resolution which was scheduled
for this morning.
The new compromise plan may not
be reported today. 1t is considered
likely that the conference will not
convene until after noon, when it is
expected the public group will sue
