Altoona, Pa.-The s-Tribune
of this city quotes "high official of
the Pennsylvania railroad" as author
ity for the statement that ''there are
lying between the outlets of the Pitts
burgh coal fields and Harrisburg 5000
loads of coal, unsold."
The only explanation, says the
Times Tribune, is that big consumers
are stocked up with all they can ham
die at existing prices, and in lieu of a
substantial reduction will close many
plants rather than go into the mar
ket for per cent money to keep
things going.

yards there are slowed thousands of
empty cars, which, under present ar
rangements, will continue thus be-
cause coal companies will not mine
coal for which there is no demand
This will mean fewer hours work
for miners and less freight for the
railroads. If factories and manufact-
uring plants must close down be-
cause the cost Of operation, due tC
the high price of coal, is too great
many more will be thrown out OF
work.

WESTERLY

Judge Arthur P. Sumner in order to facilitate court business in Westerly. decided not to return to his home in Providence, on the adjournment of the first day of the session, but to remain here over night in order to open court half an hour earlier than usual, or as soon as the jurors could arrive by train. Therefore, court was opened at 10 o. clock Thursday morning. only to ad- journ sine die half an hour later as there were no cases ready for trial. The dilatory action of Westerly lawyers will not tend to encourage the movement to have regular sessions of the court, al ternately. in Kingston and Westerly.
 The two cases of Baptiste Bottinelli against the Westerly Light and Power Company, to be tried together, were the cases assigned for trial first \ Attorney Ferguson, for the plaintin stated to the court that when these cases were assigned on Wednesday. for trial, he did not think the court would be ready so soon. He said it was i'm possible to finish the cases in two days He did not want a mistrial and asked that the eases be continued to next week.
 Judge Sumner stated that there would be no judge in Westerly next week.
 MT. Ferguson--I supposed that court would be in session here next week.
 Judge-Judge Barrows will not be here to close the Westerly docket.
 MT. Ferguson-Then I have been mis. informed.
 Judge-By whom?

 Mir. Davis-Thst was my understand. ing.

Judge-I made no announcement to that effect Wednesday.

 MT L4dwidge-I supposed court would be here by reason of holding the Arcadia Print works cases on the dock ct.
 Judge-It is fact that Judge Bar rows will not be here, as he has so notified me.
 MT Ferguson-Uhder the circum- stances I presume the cases will have to go over to the November term
 MT. Davis-As counsel for defendant I would like to get the eases out Of the way, but l will not object to contin- uance to the November term.
 Judgs-The eases will go oyer to the November term.
 Mr. Ferguson-In the event of court coming in at Westerly next week these cases may be heard?
 Judge-I repeat, Judge Barrows will not be here next week and there will be no court session.
 These cases were then called, and were continued as they were not ready for trial: Bertha H. Smith vs. State | Board of Public Roads; Morris Me Cloy vs. Joseph Girard5 Enoch D. .Je- rue vs. Arcadia Print works and West erly Light and Power company vs. Ar cadia Print works. The jury was or dered discharged.
 Judge Sumner heard the uncontested divorce case of Rosa Falconi against Angelo Falconi. Attorney Roche, coun sel for petitioner, read three deposi tions, showing that Mir and Mrs. Fal- conf had been married three years. an6 that she had been brutally treated by b1r nd E-o- the grounds of extreme cruelty. Court then adjourned.
