Warmer Weather and Strike
Settlement cray of HOpe."
Five Cars Coal Released by
Santa Fe to Retailers.
CONTINUE TO CUT WOOD
Enthusiasm, However, Appears
Dangerously Dampened.
Attorney General DiscOurages
. Workers and COmmittee7

Settlement of the coal strike and
rising temperatures brought a ray of
hope. to .shiyering Topeka today.
Five cars OF coal were released by
the Santa ,Fe, according to GuiIford
Dudley, chairman of the citizens coal
committee, and coal can now be OBJ
tanned in small quantities at the yards
OF the McCleery-Dudley Lumber Co.
Jackson Walker Coal Co. Hargreaves
Coal CO. and the Central Mills in North
Topeka. * 49,
The Union Pacific has turned two
cars over to the Forbes mill in North
Topeka. primarily for the purpose of
supplying Union Pacific EMPLOYEES but
it was intimated that some might be
distributed to outside buyers If nee
ess1ty demanded. The Rock Island.
Union Pacific and Missouri Pacific
railroads seem to have very little coal
on hand, and the Santa Fe stands as
the salvation of the city in the present
emergency
Dudley expressed the opinion today
that the fuel situation here would re-
main acute for at least ten days In
the event the miners go back to work
at once. it will be more than a week
before the results of increased produc-
ton will be felt here even in the small
est measure. Dudley strongly urged
that families burn wood as much as
possible in order to make the small
supply last as long as possible.
There Is not enough coal to go
round" he declared, "and we are urg-
ing every one who buys coal to buy
wood also and burn with 1t. Green
wood can be burned with little coal,
whereas it is poor fuel alone. ton
of wood and half ton of coal will last
the average family several days"
Enthusiasm Dampened.
The fiery enthusiasm that marked
the beginning Of Topeka's wood cut
ting campaign suddenly dampened to-
day.
Settlement of the strike, high prices
and the action of the attorney general
united to discourage not only the wood
owners but the committee in charge.
w. o. Anderson, chairman of the COM
mittee, stated that Jess Willard and
other wood owners were in to see him
if large amount of wood is cut uU
they will be compelled to hold it over
until spring owing to lack of demand.
Nevertheless, the cutting went stead
lily forward today. Wedn' 'ay 80 cords
of wood were hauled into the city and-
for the present the production seems
equal to the demand. But just how
long it will be needed IS d question
that is worrying the committee and
owners.
In spite of the general discourage
ment we will keep up the pace for a
while,' Anderson said. 'I am en-
coura aging the men to work just as fast

ONE OF. WARS
 BIG MYSTERIES
 NOT YET SOLVED
Disappearance of Rudolf Diesel Still Remains as Much of a Mystery
 as Ever.

LONDON, Jan. 23-One of the wars greatest mysteries is the dis appearance of Rudolf Diesel, Ger many's greatest inventor, who in augurated the revolution in the worlds motor power likely to be as important as that achieved by Watt. Shortly before the outbreak of the war Diesel left Germany to attend the annual meeting of the Consoli- dated Diesel Engine Manufacturers at London. He took passage at Ant werp on the channel steamer Ores den, but he never arrived in Eng land. Many wild theories have been advanced as to what became of him, ranging from. accidentally falling overheard to being Kidnapped by German agents or being alive and well and in British service. His family at Munich received tele- gram announcing his safe arrival in London, but the telegram was sent from Geneva, Switzerland. It is due to Diesel that the Germans have had and still have the most powerful and economic engines for their cruiser, destr0yers, submarines and airplanes.
