HAUBER THEATRE.

At the Hauber theatre today Nor ma Talmadge is appearing in an ex- ceptionally interesting Russian play 'The New Moon" story vividly de- picting the activities in this country where noblemen of yesterday may become peasants tomorrow, where anarchy reigned supreme and where men and women were but play-things in the hands of the rulers and their subordinates.
 Of course as in practically all pho- toplays romance is added and in The New Moon it is no exception Miss Talmadge assumes the part of Princess Marie Pavlovna and Sonia Sazoncff country storekeeper while her lover Prince Michail Koloyar is an officer.
 Anarchy reigns supreme and dur ing gathering of society at a gov- ernment ball a riot takes place with the result that friends, sweethearts and parents are separated to escape into other parts, of Russia.

Americans Oppose Being Called Upon
 in European Cases

Paris, Aug. 26-The endless bicker- ing in the supreme council is having serious effect. The revival of many questions in which the United States is not directly interested, is making the American delegation extremely impatient. The Americans are con- stantly called upon to act as arbiters in Balkan and other questions, with the result that sections of the Euro pean press, especially the French press, are assailing the American po- sitions on questions in which the Americans acted wholly without act consideration.
 the councils hesitancv in straighten- ing out the Hungarian tangle and protecting the rights of all the en- tente nations in the matter of Hun garian reparation is reflected in the attitude of the entire American dele gation. While some members of the supreme council appear to take the same position, the feeling is growing in American circles that several rep resentatives of the great powers are not inclined at the present time, to bring Rumania to account on the armistic terms.
 The American delegates fell at a great disadvantage In the present ar- rangement; the representatives of the other powers being near home are able to confer directly with their governments, thus making the coun- cil in general clearing house for European disputes not directly relat- ed to peace.
 It is the belief that after the sig nature of the Austrian treaty, the conference will have long vacation, thus forcing the various foreign of- fices to handle matter heretofore loaded upon the conference.

Railway Service of Europe Depends
 On Silesian Coal

Paris, Saturday, Aug. 23.-The railway service of Central Europe depends largely on the results at tained by the inter-allied coal com mission now on it's way to Upper Silesia. Unless the coal production in that district increases, the Central European railways will practically cease operation within 10 days, as the coal supply will not last much longer.
 The mine owners and commercial classes in the great Silesian coal basin are chiefly German, while the miners are largely Polish. The miners resent the presence of large numbers of German soldiers, alleged to be necessary for the suppression of spartacan movements.

QUITS TRADE BODY.

London, July 26-Sir Arthur Steel Maitland, head of the department of overseas trade. has resigned his po- sition, protesting that he has con- stantly been hung up bv the hybrid political nature of the department.
 The department of overseas trade is comparatively new project of the government having been created spe- officially to provide neutral ground on which the foreign office and the board of trade might cooperate to further British trade interests. Re- sponsibility to two masters is partly blamed for the difficulties Sir Arthur encountered.

CLAIMS THERE IS NO COMBINATION TO
 FIX PRICE OF COAL
Costs Lower Than Two Years Ago, Official De-
 clares.

Washington, Aug. 2e.-Denying that a combination among bituminous icoal operators to fix prices exists, |J. D. A. Morrow, vice president of the National Coal association, told a senate coal Investigating committee today that such a combination would be impossible if attempted. Prices at the mines, he said, have declined under the competition winch prevails and are lower than they were a year ago.
 "There are 5000 separate commer- ly 1000 mines from which bituminous coal is regularly shipped,' MT. Mor- row said. "1n addition there are some 2,000 operators with about B. 900 mines who begin producing and selling coal whenever the price goes up a little and offers profit to them. Moreover there are hundreds of thousands of acres of coal lands along railroads on which new mines can be readily and quickly opened by any one so disposed. Such a condi- tion obviously does not lend itself to restrictive ombinations among pro- ducers.
 Of the 5000 separate bituminous coal producers in the United States, 2,294, approximately 45 per cent hold membership in the National Coal as- sociation. They produce about 50 per cent of the total output of bituminous coal in the country
 Charges that the National Coal association is a combination to main tain prices are without foundation in fact.
 ''The National Coal association represents these operators and looks after their interests in matters of general concern, such as transporta- tion and traffic questions, standard- zation of cost accounting, co-opera- tldu with governmental agencies and similar activities"
 MT. Morrow said bituminous coal prices had declined since the armis- tice and in general were lower than the: prices fixed by the fuel admins tration.
 'The cost of producing bituminous coal is higher now than it was a year ago." he said, due to the fact that the mines then were operating six days a week in many cases are now operating only four days per week and in some cases only three days week. The overhead expense of maintaing mines goes on sjust the same whether coal is produced 0. not"
