city has not yet been completed.
Until noon today no additional re-
ports had reached headquarters
from First, Third, Fourth, Fifth,
Sixth and Eighth wards although
1t Is known that there are yet sew
eral zones 10 be worked.
Mrs. w. j. LaFollette, chairman
in the second ward, sent in her first
Roll Call report with the statement
that less than half the district had
been covered. AT that her com
miltee has 127 memberships al
ready in hand, a most excellent
showing In view of weather con
tlitionS and as compared to the
final total of 206 memberships
from the Second ward last year.
Seventh ward, in charge OF Miss
Cecilia Sarsfield and Arthur
Brobst, brought in 80 memberships
this forenoon and Mr.. Brobst re.
ported at headquarters that there
were several supporters of the Red
Cross cause out IN the West End
district waiting for Canvassers to
call. One lady phoned headquar'
ters from the West End this morn
ing saying she was going away in a
day or SO and wanted TO be sure
that one Of the Red Cross workers
would stop and get dues for four
memberships for her family. A
number of good folks have phoned
headquarters that they did not
want to be overlooked during the
Red Cross Roll Call and while
workers will try to visit every home
they may unintentionally miss a
few. In that case one can pay Red
Cross dues at headquarters in the
court house or at one of the booths
which will open tomorrow.
AS in previous years the Red
Cross booths will be conducted at
several convenient locations
throughout the business district.
Beginning Thursday booths will ap-
pear as follows: Peoples bank, Mrs.

COAL CARS VERY
SCARCE ON AL
R0ADSINR REGION
Operators Association Is.
sues Statement About
Confiscation

Empties are scarce in the Fair
mont region today. In fact none
of the three railroads is overbur-
dened with them. The general de-
mand for empties in the hard coal
regions, the setting in of winter
and the congestion generally on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
are factors in keeping them out Of
the region, although the movement
of coal cars to the anthracite re-
gion is probably the chief explain
alton for the shortage.
There are 772 emptIes on the
Monongah division Of the Baltl-
more and Ohio railroad and conse-
quently 107 mines are idle today.
The supply and early placement,
today, however, is just little bit
better than Tuesday on the diyis-
ion. The mines ordered 1859
empties, Of which eighteen are for
coke loading. Today's early morn
ing placement is $50 against 625
yesterday. The shortage is gen
largest concerns severely. Cars are
classified as follows: Open, GA;
coke, IS; BMIN, 55; MVT, 20.
Cars left over from the previous
day were 1856.
The flow of empties on the Mo-
nongahela railway also eased up
some and probably empties going
to the anthracite regions has also
affected this road. Today there
are 200 placed in the West Vir-
ginia district, of which 3S are as
signed cars. Operations in sthe
Pennsylvania district have 233
cars. The car supply for Thursday
Is somewhat uncertain.
The large locotive on the Nor
gantown and Wheeling railway
jumped the track yesterday morn
ing and had not been replaced up
until this morning. AS a result
the mines along this line did not
produce any coal yesterday or to-
day.
Operations along the Helen's
Run Wyatt Bingamon branches
of the Western Maryland railway
today are somewhat limited, there
being but rs empties.
Car supply on the Charleston
division of the B. & o. R. r. today
is restricted to 120 empties against
1875 on Tuesday. All of the 120
empties we're placed on the divis-
ion at Z o'clock this morning. The
operations ordered 320 cars.

the dead ones had all been buried.
He half promised the KiwanlanS
