FUEL FAMINE THREATENS
AS RESULT HIGH WATERS

Chattanooga is once more confronted
with n serious fuel famine. Several
OF the local coal yards are cut off from
shipments of coal by high waters. I'm
less the flood recedes and thee Belt
line is able to make deliveries OF coal
within the next few days suffering Will
undoubtedly result, was the opinion
of one local coal dealer Monday morn
ing. The sudden cold spell caused
many a housewife to look at her coal
bin to find to her dismay that It was
nearly empty. As a consequence local
retail fuel dealers are literally swamped
with orders.
l. h. Merriam Coal company is re-
ported to be entirely out of coal the
yard being bare James Hibbler, Of
Hibbler- Barnes company, stated Mon
day night that his suburban yards were
entirely cut off from their supply of
coal by the flood waters While there Is
a small supply OF coal IN the Ienth
street yard, both high waters and lack
OF equipment prevent deliveries to the
suburbs from the downtown yard.
Carroll Coal company reported only
about seventy-fiVe tons of coal in the
yard only days supply Of coal. Bryan
Coal company stated that there is
good supply Of coal in the yards and
little danger of running out before ship
ments are received, Tho company is
showed under" with orders. J. T.
rope OF L, L. wilson company tN~
pressed the opinion that there is little
danger OF a serious shortage. Coal viii
be delivered to local dealers by the rail-
roads before all yards are bare, was the
opinion of MIR. Pope.
An official declared Monday morning
that the Belt railway is entirely out OF
commission Only one spur is above
water 1t is impossible to make de-
liveries to any of the yards fed by the
Belt. he said, on account Of the water,
which reaches n height of 4 feet and
more in places along the line. The
only way for the coal dealers to get
fuel is to drive their trucks to the
steam tracks in the yards This seems
almost out of the question since none
of the dealers seem to have enough
equipment for the extra haul
