Bara plays the parts of two different

as the demure and devoted wife Of an
impoverished artist, the next sees her
as a woman who outwardly resem-

soul is black. She is a notorious woman
of Paris, yearning for conquest, and

between these two women forms the
climax of this absorbing photoplay
which was adapted for the screen from

Miss Bara scored a distinct triumph

COAL DISTRIBUTION
IS NEARING NORMAL
Inquiry Commission Not to Be
Named Before Thursday,
White House States.

Virtually normal conditions in the
distribution of coal have been re-
stored. The railroad administration
today began delivering all coal as
billed except in some few emergency
cases, where diversion will be neceS-
sary. The order reducing by rs per
cent the amount of coal permitted to
be cooked also was rescinded.
Appointment of the commission to
investigate wages and prices in the
coal mining industry will not be made
before Thursday, it was said today at
the White House. Attorney General
Palmer is in Illinois attending high
commission will not be named until
after his return to Washington.
Production Below Expectation.
Railroad administration officials es-
timated today that the coal produc-
ton of the country was about ~ per
cent normal. falling about 10 per cent
below the expected volume of produc-
ton.
Coal is running about as billed, it
was announced. and it is expected
that when production reaches normal
the amount of coal billed to the east
ern region will be increased. Hereto
fore the bulk of coal has been sent
west to prevent a serious shortage.
Further lifting of restrictions on the
use of bituminous coal, and conflicting
reports as to the number Of miners
returning to work in the various
fields, were today's developments in
the coal situation.
orders of the railroad administra-
ton late yesterday permitted supplies
of bunker coal to foreign-owned ves-
sells that have been tied up in United
States ports for several weeks be-
cause of inability to obtain coal.
More trains Cancelled recently on
orders of the railroad administration
were restored by orders countermand-
ing the restrictive orders, and pas
seneer service on all roads is expect
ed to be back on the usual basis by
tomorrow night.

Mr. Brown Attacks Assessments.
After The Stars report clio ed yes
terday Herbert ]. Brown. employed
for number of years as an account
ant and efficiency expert by the gov
eminent. argued that the property in
Washington is not fairly assessed.
He urged that the sale price or mar
ket value of property should be
checked up with the assessed valua-
ton by the committee to determine
whether property owners in Washing
ton are fairly taxed.
Mr.. Brown told the committee that
in his opinion the appropriation of
increased them: that it has not les
sened taxable values. but increased
them. The argument that the with
drawal of SO much land by the gov
eminent from taxation threw a heavy
burden upon the rest of the land in
the District remaining in private
ownership, he said, was fallacious,
since the governments improvements
of land which it has taken have en-
HANGED values all over the city.
Land Values Discussed.
Mr.. Brown said that he considered
that land values in the District are
higher than in any city of comparable
size. and higher than almost any city
in the country. He said he Mad in
quired into land values in Baltimore
and had been told that $40 a square
foot was what the choicest property
has brought in the business section.
Here, he said, it would run over 800
a square foot. Pretty nearly all the
property on + street in the business
section would sell for more than $40
