GALY COLORED
SUGAR PLACED
in CITY STORES
Rainbow Effect Produced in
Raw Washed Cuban
Product a.
MANY RUMORS SETTLED
Wholesalers Explain That the
New Sweet Is Not Arti-
ficially Colored

Washed raw sugar. resplendent in
all colors of the spectrum, has made
its appearance in Harrisburg and to-
day many Harrisburgers are get
ting their first taste of what has
been dubbed rainbow sugar.
This sugar is Cuban product,
according to one city wholesaler.
Shipped from the island to this
country, and thence direct to the
big eastern refineries, it has made its
appearance in this section. Small
quantities of it were to-day pur-
chasable from city retailers at IL
cents per pound.
All reports notwithst anding, this
sugar is under the control of the
government equalization board.
Some stories had been circulated in
the city to the effect that the sugar
had been purposely colored in or
der that it might not come under
the government control, but this
story is branded as untrue.
The shipment of this rainbow
sugar to Harrisburg has not been
especially large, but it is aiding con-
siderable in supplying the deficiency
in the city supply. The shipments
of Louisiana sugar, received here
several weeks ago and sold at high
prices by reason of the fact that
they were without the control of
the government board, has been en-
tirely exhausted. Some quantities of
the granulated variety, however, are
still on hand in a number of estab-
lishm ents.

ASKS GARFIELD
TO BE PRESENT
AT CONFERENCE
Fuel Administrator Invited TO
Attend Meeting of Min
ers and Operators
DELEGATES ARRIVING
200 Owners and 100 Workmen
on Way to Washington;
New Pact Expected
BY associated Press.

Washington. Nov. 12.-Fuel .Ad.
ministrator Garfield has been in
vited by Secretary Wilson to at
tend the conference here tomorrow
between coal miners and operators
to negotiate a new scale wage agree
ment. No reply has been received
from Dr. Garfield but his acceptance
is expected, it was said to-day at the
office of the fuel administration
here.
More than 200 operators and about
100 representatives of the miners
are expected to arrive tonight and
! tomorrow morning for the confer
ence. which will be called to order
| by Secretary Wilson. at II o'clock
/ at the Interior Department.
| Both sides have notified the labor
secretary that they will attend the
conference. Spokesman for the
mine workers said that if the mine
owners come in a spirit of concilia-
ton a new agreement can be FARM
ed and ratified by Saturday night.
Until an agreement is formally ac-
| cepted by the miners scale COM
mittee, labor leaders said, there is
little hope of full resumption of coal
production.
1t is because of this possibility
and the steady drain meanwhile on
the nations visible coal supply that
, Secretary Wilson undertook to-day
to induce come of the miners and
operators to see the other fellows
side.
The indicated continued suspen-
sion of mining activity in union
fields was not surprise to govern
ment officials nor accented as an
actual test of the attitude of the
miners. Complete distribution of the
order canceling the strike will take
some time, it is said. 1t is felt, how
ever, that a large number of men
still will remain out until assured
that some of the demands agreed
upon in convention will be grant
ed.
Labor leaders who frankly ad-
mitted that public sentiment was
strongly against the strike, took
comfort to-day in what they describe
as seeming change of sentiment as
reflected in newspaper editorials.
