.RENNER LEAVES PARIS
(By Associated Press1

PARIS, June 3.-Two changes In
the German peace terms, one terri
torial and the other financial, are be-
ing considered by the council of four,
it became known today.
PARIS, June 3.-President Wilson
met the American experts at the Hotel
de Crillon this morning and discussed
with them the question Of the replies
to be made to the German notes on
reparations and the economic phases
of the peace terms. The meeting later
developed into general conference OF
the full American delegation over the
German counterproposals.
Brig-Gen. George H Harries, the
chief American military adviser re-
garding German affairs. arrived in
Paris today from Berlin 1t Is believ-
ed that his visit is for consultation
regarding the military measures to be
taken in the event of German refusal
to sign the peace treaty.
Conference Marks Time.
With the terms of peace. with the
exception Of few sections. submitted
to the Austrian representatives and
with allied experts working on the re-
ply that will be made to the German
contemporaries, the work of the
peace conference in Paris, is for the
time being, marking time. There will
be no meeting Of the council of four
today.
Dr. Karl Renner, Austrian chancel
lor and head of the peace mission of
the former dual empire, is expected to
leave Paris for Switzerland today, and
It is probable he will proceed as far
as the Austria frontier where he is ex-
pected to meet members of his cab
met, who will discuss with him the
answer Austria will make to the al
lies terms. The Austrian reply is due
June II, but before that time 1t is
probable there will be a number of
notes sent to the peace conference by
DR.. Renner relative to different phases
Of the treaty.
There has as yet been no official
| inttmation of the date when the allies
will present their reioinder to the Ger
| man counter proposals. 1t Is indicated
in late advices that there is a disposi-
| tfon on the part of some of the mem
| bers of the council of four to modify
certain Of the terms to which the Ger
mans have made the most emphatic
objection. Premier Clemenceau of
France is reported standing firmly
| against any concessions to the Ger
mans, while Premier Lloyd George is
r favorable to notifications, Premier
| Orlando has taken no decided stand
/ and President Wilson is reported as
inclined to leave the final decision to
/ the French and British.

Stamps Urged By U. S.
tBy Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, June 3.-Laxness in
the cancellation of tax stamps will
not be tolerated by the internal rev.
enue bureau. Receipt by the bureau
OF a Quantity of uncancelled stamps
taken from taxable articles purchased
at drug stores caused the issuance of
a warning today that regulations re-
quiring the affixing of stamps in such
manner as to prevent further use
would be enforced strictly. Failure to
comply is punishable by fine of $-100.
IF possible" the regulations stated,
"the stamp should be affixed so that
upon opening the package the stamp
will be destroyed. The initial or name
of the vendor, together with the date
when the stamp was affixed or cancel
led, must appear on the cancelled

EVERYTHING But
DOCS AND CATS
IN MAIL BOXES
Even Brass Coupling Number
ed Among Various Articles
Bestowed on Postoffice.

Did you ever drop anything you
didn't intend to mail into a postoffice
mail box and then wonder what on
earth became of it? II you have,
you're not in class all your own for,
according to Postmaster @. B. Beck,
such work Is a faFosite indoor sport
FOR any number of people.
During the last year or so every
thing from hairpins to hair switch
itself has been accidently mailed In
the local postoffice boxes.
Not only is it an indoor sport, either,
for every street corner mail box in the
city has from time to time received
its share of mail-extraordinary.
Find Brass Coupling.
For instance, street car tickets and
transfers, checks, bills, Liberty Bonds
War Saving stamps, keys of all kinds
pamphlets, unaddressed and apparent
ly unread newspapers, and even foot
long brass coupling worth probably
$40 and weighing a noticeable amount
have been found strayed from their
natural orbs and residing in postoffice
and street mail receptacles.
Photographs are frequently wished
upon the postoffice employees. These
are generally a family group and not
exceedingly interesting, an added mis-
fortune, the clerks explain. Not Ions
ago twenty photographs were dropped
into a local box at one time and al
unnamed and unaddressed. The i'm
ages appearing were not recognized
and so all twenty were sent to the dis
trict postoffice in Cincinnati to receive
i the gentle care Of that department.
Unopened Pay Envelope.
The most sensational gift" yet II
be bestowed was an unopened pay en-
velope of a well-known young bust
ness man of this city last week
Such gross neglect is unimagin
sighed over this incident.
We've never found dog or I
! chicken loose in our boxes, but w,
did find chameleon not long ago,
said the postmaster. He admitted tha
nothing in the way of unaddressec
mail could or would startle him in tn,
least.
A return coupon of a Grand Rapids
Mich, to Richmond round-trip Penn
| sylvania railroad ticket was found re
posing in a street corner mail box
few days ago.
Stick pins, cuff buttons, handke1
chiefs and numerous other articles O

quently in Uncle Sans boxes in Rich
mond.

DEALERS ANTICIPATE
SHORTAGE OF COAL
PRODUCTION INADEQUATE. Elk.
PECT PRICES TO ADVANCE
BEFORE FALL ARRIVES.

Who cares about winter coal when
the thermometer stands around 100
degrees and electricity at so much
per kilowatt hour is cheap at the
price? Yet the coal dealers are
choosing this untimely moment to
remind people that there may be a
shortage of coal next winter and
that 1915 a ton is bagatelle of
price compared to those that will
prevail when the thermometer drops
to zero.
There is at least something cheer
ing in the optimism that in the midst
of summer one can anticipate winter
winter, chill, ice, snow, perhaps,
and the joys of a warm hearthside
and blazing chimney-with plenty
of coal, bought cheap in summer,
stored away in a bin.
Coal is now selling at 1913 and
there is plenty of it to be had in Daw-
son coal yards. They are, in fact,
stocked full, and the war and war
boards and fuel administration and
administrators being all in the dim
past nobody will come and buy. Last
summer at this time orders for the
winter had been placed and coal was
being rapidly delivered, and stored
away against winter when there
would be no coal to buy.
The anticipated shortage will be
due to present reproduction or
slow production, says a dealer. "The
miners are not working" said the
dealer, cor are working only three
days week instead of six. They are
getting big pay and they are satisfied
to work three days a week and en-
joy it. Not only that, but higher
wages are being demanded, and they
will get it. Labor is asking more and
is going to be paid more. People may
think that a decline in the price of
coal is coming, but it is not coming.
1t is certain to advance on hard coal
before fall, and there will be small
er advance on soft coal"
This dealer anticipates that before
fall the price of soft coal will go up
.$1.OO. This will make the price next
winter S9.75.

HOT WEATHER NO HINDRANCE
TO CHURCH ATTENDANCE

Despite the hot weather interest in
church services is evidenced by the
attendance, which is keeping up we'll.
Sunday al the Methodist church those
fortunate enough to be present were
greatly edited and entertained at
the morning hour by the strong and
timely discourse by the pastor, Rev.
T. H. Thomson, who used as a text
the 41st and a part of the 42nd vers
of the first chapter of st. John, HE
first fndeth his own brother Simon
and saith unto him we have found
the Messiah, which is being interpret
ed the Christ. And he brought him to
Jesus" The importance of personal
evangelism was the theme of the very
impressive discourse.
Rev. Mr.. Thomson's sermons are
always carefully prepared and are
deeply spiritual in tone and it is no
surprise that he holds the closest at
tention of his hearers. The evening
service was also full of interest and
inspiration.
