Those Who Delay Ordering

The United States Geological Survey
announces from Washington the prob
ability OF another general coal short

nouncement is based. the Survey
states. upon nationwide study OF
conditions In the btuminous Aeld.
Unless steps are taken at once. the
Survey says, TO place the mines upon

is every prospect Of repetition 10
some degree of the situation that pre-
vailed In the United States during the
winter OF l917-lS.
The only way production can be stlm.

by placing orders with the mines for

25es below production during the first
five months of 1918. Mines are produc-
ing coal now at the rate Of from 5000

age output Of 100000 tons a week

January next II the country's esti-
mated needs Of 5OOOOO.0O0 tons this
year are to be met"
Evil Of Delayed Orders.
At no time during this year has the
rate OF production approached the re-
CURED tonnage. The tendency on the
part Of buyers to hold off placing their
orders is limiting production, as the
mines cannot store coal at the point OF
production, and when the rush OF
orders for the winters needs comes
next fall there Is grave danger that
the mines. with depleted labor forces
and the probability Of less adequate
transportation, will be unable to meet
the demands. The result Of such sit.

Caucus and Election Notes.

Mike" Keefe, veteran of several po-
litical battles in the fifth ward, went into
the fifth ward aldermanic fight last night
as an eleventh-hour candidate, on learn
ing that Alderman Rizzi was making no
great effort to secure the nomination.
Mr.. Keefe, who was formerly a member
of the board of aldermen, is preparing to
file papers to contest the election of Mr..
Frontini
Another contest in prospect for the
municipal election is over assessor for
three years, as it is planned by the
friends of Silvio Giudici, one Of the two
defeated candidates in the city caucus
Thursday night, to file against Nelson B.
Ballard, the caucus nominee.
One of the surprises of the caucuses
was the nomination Of John w. Gordon,
former mayor of the city, as candidate
for alderman in ward one. However, the
surprise was not based on the belief that
Mr.. Gordon would not make a capable
official. .....
Women were notable for their absence
from the ward caucuses. This is perhaps
explained by the fact that ward two had
no caucus
The time for filing nominations for the
election expires Monday night, Feb. II,
Voting booths in the third ward have
never been removed from one Of the
rooms in the Summer street school build
ing since the election last fall because
the room is not used for school purposes.
