 Some witnesses said the country was e.sper,enc'Ir the worst coal snoi tage in it's lnstcry, while others declared with equal fna,ity there was no shortage.
 T.-e commission was asked both to modify it's order, originally iss'iel for a thirty-day period ending July 2l, so as to give so much of monopoly on cars to the coal mine, and also to make the order more drastic and continue it for longer than thirty days, The hearing win be continued tomorrow.
 Carl Jackson, a member Of the Wis consir railway commission, urged the commission to amend it's order so as to g.ve preference to coal mines having con- tracts for coal to supply Wisconsin, Min nesota. North and South Dakota and northern Michigan.
 Agents of public utilities, scattered the eastern half of the coun- try also asked preferential treatment be given their companies so winter reserve stock might be accumulated in the next few months.
 George H. Cushing of the American Wholesale Ceal Association said present production was equalling consumption.
 Mr. Cushing expressed the opinion that fair price for coal at the mine should be $50 ton, and John Moore. represent ing the Ohio miners, added that with an adequate car supply the cost would fall to s4 Mr. Moore did not agree with Mir. Rushing as to the available supply. Con- tending that a shortage existed, he urged extension after July 21 of the preference order for cars to the mines.
 In the course of the hearing, Chairman Clark read into the record letter writ ten on the stationary of the Reeves Coal and Dock Company of Minneapolis. of- fering to sell coal already on the cars and is, transit for s13 a ton.

 She Was Republican
By Associated Pres,

St. Louis, July S.--Questioning of a dozen witnesses by the Senate committee Investigating campaign expenditures to- day resulted in charges that high cost of living bureaus established by the depart ment ofs justice were political enter prises'' used primarily 'to bring about the nomination of Attorney General A. Nit chell Palmer for President by the demo- cratic national convention"
 Witnesses also declared that Edward Goltra, democratic national committee man from Missouri, ,stributed $50 checks to St. Louis delegates to the state which was instrumental in the busting of Senator James Reed of Missouri; from his national convention seat. Goltra was declared by witnesses to be a supporter of Palmer, but few also admitted receiving expense from A. c. Stuevers, a local capitalist. said to have been supporter of Governor Cox
 The charges against the Attorney Gen eral and the department of justice were made by Miss Olivia Brueggeman. for merly executive secretary of the Missouri high cost of living bureau. who declared she was dismissed because I was a republican"
 TESTIMONY CONTRADICTED
 Mrs. John R. Leighty, chairman of the bureau, and Miss Mary Scott, it's pub- licity director, partly contradicted Miss Brueggemans testimony. declaring that while its representatives had attended state democratic and republican conven- tions partly at government expense, they did so to organize counties in the anti high cost of living campaign.
 Questioned by Senator Kenyon, they admitted that "no counties were or ganized at these conventions and that they also talked politics with the women there.
 Miss Brueggeman, answering questions without hesitation, told the committee that workers employed by the depart ment of justice to educate the people in lowering living costs, confined their speeches to. boosting Palmer and general- ly the only, time living costs were men tioned was when the speakers woudl ex- plain that election of Palmer to the presidency woudl mean lower prices

WEST LIKELY ID BE THE BATTLE-GROUND
 IN FALL CAMPAIGN
Cox Intimates He Is Inter- ested In Early Invasion of West - Arrangements
 Up to Committee
By Associated Press

Dayton, O., July 9.-That the west may be developed into one of the chief battlegrounds early in the national political campaign, was the inference drawn from today's develop ments here.
 Gov. James M. Cox, the democratic candidate for President, stated that many requests that he open the campaign in the west have been received, and in his talk with newspaper men the governor left the impression that he, at least, was interested in the proposition of an early invasion of the west, if not in fact favor able to it. He stated, however, that cam- paign arrangements are in the hands of the national committee, and that he could say nothing definite until he had con- ferred with the committee.
 w. W. Blain. president of the Corn Palace, Mitchell, S. D., headed a delega- tion that called on the governor today, urging him to accept an invitation 10 speak at the festival, the date of which is September 27 to October z. The Min nesota state fair management also has
  gagement there. Charles E. Morris, the governors private secretary, telephoned from San Francisco that he was being besieged by California delegations urg- ing that the campaign be opened in that state. Mir. Morris told the governor that California democrats are certain they can carry the state for him.
 INTEREST IN CONFERENCE
 Considerable interest is now centering in the conference of the national con- mittee with the governor July 20. It has not been definitely established whether the meeting will be held at the governors home at Trails End or in Columbus, but the governor said he would wire Chair man Cummings that the plans made for the committee meeting here seemed sat isfactory to him. The date and place of hold the official notification ceremonies are expected to be determined at the conference. Governor Cox intimated that some time between August 15 and 20 would be satisfactory date for the mo- tification.
 The fact that Franklin D. Roosevelt has stopped over for a 24-hour rest at Glenwood Springs, Colo, makes it prob-l able that he will not reach Ohio for a conference with his running mate before Monday. In such case, the governor said. the conference probably will take place in Columbus, as he expects to go there Monday morning to look after matters at the executive offices He has wired MT. Roosevelt asking for something definite on the time of his arrival.
 STREAM OF MESSAGES
 Messages continued to come in today in a constant stream. The governor stat ed that number were from men whom he had pardoned from the penitentiary and who were making good in the world"
 The governor has not found time yet to answer many of the Jcongratulatory tele- grams and letters. He said he expected tonight to wire Senator Reed of Mis- souri his expression of thanks for the courteous message received from the Mis- souri senator.
