Wraps Of distinctive originality as to
cut, and novel and CAV as to fabrics,
are new mile posts on the fashion high
way in Paris. It is hard to decipher
where and how some Of these start in
point of construction. though they
plainly end with scarf which en-
velops the shoulders In the back, and
hangs gracefully over one arm. A model
created by Jenny out Of tomato red vel :
ours de laine with foulard satin lining,
which also faces the full deep cuffs, is
one of these striking innovations. II

are used for one arm.

capes of Scotch plaid coating materials,

combination, perhaps for. the lining Of
the collar which stands high about the
throat. A chic little chapeau, also made
of the plain solid color, Is considered
the proper accompaniment of this wrap.

Arrest of Diaz Brings

MEXICO CITY, Oct S-Thc arrest
In Vera Cruz of Felix Diaz, after he
and General Guadalupe Sanchez had
discussed the mastering out of Diaz's
troops, has brought a storm of disap-
proval in military and political circles
in this city. The affair was discussed
most of the day yesterday in the Cham
Der Of Deputies where, almost without
exception, the members expressed re-
gret at Sanchcz's action, because they
felt that the arrest was a breach of
faith likely to arouse much antagonism
Deputy Luis Leon, of the Indepen-
dents, advocated the trial of Diaz on a
charge of completely in the death of
President Madero. Action on this mo-
tion was deferred.
Officials Of the government. in de-
Tending General Sanchez's course, said
Diaz had been declared outlaw, and
that. therefore, he was without any
rights in Mexico. Deportation from tho
country, they explained, really consti-
tuted an act of mercy on the part of
the De la Huerta government.
Army officers are divided in their at
titude toward Sanchez's action. Many
regard II as blot on the army's
escutcheon. although they personally
have no sympathy for Diaz. Officers Of
the old army all denounce the arrest

Seven Held for Tnefts
From Freight Shipments

Hoenig, Buchusky and Kenny were
held in $4,000 bail each. Captain
Geiger's bail was fixed at $2,5OO The
bail Of the others was set at $1,000

that he would establish coal relief
bureau Of the Health Department. and
that all landlords who had difficulty
in procuring coal might arrange
through this bureau for the necessary
supply.
Dr. Copeland said the entire coal
situation was discussed and the most
hopeful phase of the problem was the
announcement that 10000 workmen Of
the Pennsylvania Coal Company re-
sumed work yesterday. This company,
he said, was the principal source Of
supply for this city. The men had
been on strike for the last three
months.
The coal shortage in this city, Dr.
Copeland. said, WAS caused by the Inter-
state Commerce Commission diverting
nearly the entire output of anthracite
coal to the West He declared he was

the Great Lakes were frozen over it

Woman Was Moved Out
OF Her Mind, Say Kin
Entered Flat and Packed Furni-
ture Through Delusion Caused
by Eviciions, Court Is Told

Although the charge against Mrs.
Rachael Toback, fifty years DID, of 1o4
Pitt Street, was unlawful entry, her
relatives told Magistrate William A.
Sweetser, before whom she was ar
raigned yesterday in Essex Market
Court, that compulsory moving from
house to house had affected her mind.
The specific charge against Mrs. To-
back was that she had entered the
apartment of Harry Abrams, at 36G
East Houston Street, packed the furni-
ture and hired moving vans to haul
the things away. The Abrams family
had been out and arrived in time to
halt the van workers.
Mrs. Toback's relatives told Magis-
trate Sweetser that she had been
forced to move at least six times with
in the last year, and declared that her
unpleasant experiences had preyed on
the womans mind. They added she
had entered several apartments in the
same way before. Magistrate Sweet
ser committed her to Bellevue Hos
pital for observation.

Coal Relief to
Middle West
Priority Instructions for the
Use of Cars Extended to
Entire Section East of the
Rocky Mountain States
Domestic Fuel Is Scarce
Many Complaints Received
at White House; All Are
Referred TO Commission

WASHINGTON, Oct s.-Action to
satisfy demands for domestic coal in
various states was taken tonight by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
in an order requiring railroads east of
Wyoming, Montana, Colorado and New
Mexico to furnish coal cars to mines
in preference to any other use.
Former orders of this character ap-
piled only east of the Mississippi River
The present order the commission said,
would run until further notice, but
would be relaxed as the situation war
ranted.
The commission also ordered all out
standing permits for use Of coal cars
for other freight cancelled, but an
nounced that arrangements to continue
the movement of certain essentials,
such as sugar beets to factories, would
be made
Telegraphic appeals to the White
House from many sections of the coun-
try for relief from the threatened coal
shortage and for an agreement on
methods of preventing serious condi-
tons this winter were referred to the
Interstate Commerce Commission
Announcement that the commission
would deal with the situation was made
by Secretary Tumulty after he had
conferred with Daniel Willard, presi-
dent of the Baltimore & Ohio, and
Howard Elliott, chairman of the board
of the Northern Pacific Railroad.
The suggestion that it might be
necessary to name a coal controller
had not been considered, Mr.. Tumulty
said.
Working in conjunction with coal
operators and railroads, program has
been formulated, the commission said,
which is expected substantially to
meet domestic coal needs. 1t is
2,l00 cars daily for this purpose in
Indiana. Ohio, Mich gan, Eastern Ken
lucky, eastern Tennessee, western
Pennsylvania and West Virginia. At
tention is also being givcn to needs Of
domestic consumers in other states,
the commission added.
AS public utilities and institutions
have accumulated some stocks of coal
under the commissions former prior
ity order, that order has been super
seeded by new regulation, which, the
commission said, Will care for special
cases of real emergency. After Octo
Der IA preferential car supply for pub
lie institutions viii be afforded only
upon approval Of the commission.
Despite an increase in coal proGHc-
ton, which up to September 2S OK
ceeded that of last year by 81 100000
tons, the commission said, "therc has
not been a sufficient production Of the
sizes Of coal for domestic purposes TO
