 Mrs. Orthwein said she saw Hergler in company with other women in a cafe early last night Later, she said he came to her apartment and demanded admittance. She refused to admit him and threatened to shoot him if he continued to pound the door. Hergler, she said, continued to beat upon the door, until she opened it and shot him. She said the bullet was through his body hardly before he knew the door had been opened.

 If that proposal is the best Ger many can do, we'd better adjourn,'' y the premier is said to have remarked.

Loom Strong

Lake shipments off the Monongah
Lewiston last week proved to be
stronger than in any similar period
during the 1921 season. OF course
this was due to lake rate reduction
which became effective on Wednes-
day, May 4. A total o.. $40 cars
were sent to lakes against 81 the
previous week. The higher grades
Of West Virginia coal appear TO be
in demand at the lake front, but It
is believed that the Fairmont steam
and gas coal will be wanted more
generally later. The bulk OF the
domestic coal naturally will go from
the southern West Virginia fields.

Heavy to Curtis Bay

Heavy to Curtis Say
/. Curtis Bay loading jumped up last
week off the MononSah division to
900 cars, the best showing OF 1921.
In fact this is tho best total that
ran UP for any week since that end
ing November 8. 1920. when It was
1904 cars.
This showed a jump OF 492 cars
over the total OF the previous week.
The increase unquestionably is due
to some business that has been Sc
cured through the inability Of Ger.
tain foreign countries to secure
English coal due to the strike. At
least one large firm in the region
is reported to have received an In.
crease In its orders from a French
firm for low sulphur coal, being
utilized by French gas plants. II
