Richard Leases Famous Madison
 Square Garden

New York, July 12.-The leasing of Madison Square Garden, New York's fa- nous exhibition amphitheatre, for a pe- rlod of ten years was announced here to- night by Tex Rickard.
 The new lessee, noted for his promo tions or championship boxing contests. stated he would enter into control of the Garden on August l, and was planning to devote his entire time to the new amusement enterprise.
 Rlekard stated he would stage bouts between prominent pugilists under the New York boxing law, which becomes ef- fective as soon as Governor smith ap- points boxing commission and license board.
 These contests, however, are to form only portion of the amusement pro- gramme which Rickard is planning for the Garden.
 Standard shows, which have been held annually at the Garden for some years, such as the horse show, circus, six-day bicycle race, business and commercial ex- hibitions, will be part of the seasons s regular attractions in addition to new forms of athletic and sport contests.

FAIL ID AGREE ON
 PLANS FOR MOVING
 COAL IMMEDIATELY
Two Proposals for Solving Coal Problem Are Reject ed By Anthracite
 Conference
By Assoelated Press

Washington. July 12.-Bituminous coal operators meeting here today failed to work out any plan to bring winters coal to the northwest, al- though agreeing that the problem of obtaining the dumping of 1000 car loads daily until November at Great Lake ports for movement to that ter ritory hinged entirely on car supply.
 There was no indication that any concrete plan would be worked out for the joint conference of the opera tors and railroad executives at New York, 1t was anounced. The operators conference. however. will continue to- morrow, but it's session is expected to be devoted largely to discussion of questions that the operators committee will present to the railroad men.
 Two proposals for solving the coal problem were rejected by the opera tors after having been suggested by a committee named by the general con- ference. Establishment of a zone sys- tenn, restricting the sales territory of the operators with a view of shorten ing car mileage was rejected after operators had complained that such a plan would cause them to break con- tracts. The other proposal for D di- vision of the coal supply for the north west among mines in Ohio, western Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Illinois ana Indiana also was rejected after the meeting had been informed that con- tracts have already been made for all of the northwest's supply.
 Poss!bi tty of the TO. establishment of federal fuel administration tIso was understood to have been men, toned during the conference but none or tho opreators appeared to have any information as to the governments att titude on such a proposal. Informally the operators opposed such & plan, as- sertlng that a fuel administration could not be set up and begin to func- ton effectively in less than ninety days
