AT THE PALACE THEATRE

Friday and Saturday-"A Woman's
Sacrifce'-A log cabin in the Adiron-
dack mountains was purchased by
Vitagraph which will be shown in "a
Woman's Sacrifice" This cabin was
used for several scenes and then burn
ed to the ground. 1t was a picture
sque sight in the early morning hours
of a north winter day to see the spec
tacular blaze as logs a foot through
were consumed by fire. 1t was like a
big open fire place as the sparks as
cended heatenward and the logs snap
ped and cracked as they were driven
by tongues of vivid flame. Corinne
Griffith and her company stayed upon
the mountain top and looked down into
the valley in which this cabin was To-
Gated. The flames scared up, it SEEM
ed, as high as the mountain, and the
fair star said that in all her picture
career she had never witnessed as
thrilling and spectacular scene as this
huge bonfire which forms one of the
big scenes of the production.

not be sent fully loaded. Therefore,
in the interest of obtaining from these
cars the full service of which they are
capable, shippers are being urged to
observe the following precautions:
First: To confne the loading of
the O,0OO-pound cars to specified
points on the Pennsylvania system, at
which extensive unloading facilities
exist, in order that they may be
promptly emptied and returned to the
mines with the least delay.
Second: Not to use the 100000

a different type are available.

ADOPT CLEARING HOUSE FOR
DELIVERY OF STATE COAL
IN THIS MANNER COMMISSION
HOPES TO BENEFIT STATE
Only 80 Days Supply on Order, But
Coal Is Expected to Come in Live
ly Before Winter Sets In

ly BEFORE winter sets In
Establishment of a central clearing
house to govern distribution of coal
supplies throughout the State to pro-
tect consumers as far as possible, was
agreed upon at a conference Thursday
night between the Delaware Coal Com
mission and coal dealers. The con-
ference was called by Leon Walker,
chairman of the commission and was
held in the rooms of the Old Colony
Club, Hotel DUPONT, Wilmington.
Practically every local coal dealer at
tended and there were representatives
present from other sections of the
State.
Chairman Walker reviewed the sit
uation as it exists today. The as
sembled dealers were unanimous in
their determination to give the coal
commission the most complete CO.
operation. They were equally un-
animous in the opinion it was absolute
ly essential that central clearing
house should be established through
which all individual orders should pass
for approval to avoid chaos and dupli-
cation of orders.
This action was referred to a COM
mittee of three, with instructions and
power to formulate definite plan of
distribution of anthracite coal which,
subject to the approval of the Coal
Commission, Immediately should be
put in operation.
Benjamin K.Smedley, vice-president
for New Castle county of the Della
ware Coal Club, was authorized to ap-
point the committee. He selected
Henry Snyder, Wilmer Stradley and l.
Elmer Perry.
1t was recommended by the dealers
that the commission permit no deliv-
cries of coal on individual orders in
excess of one load, or 5000 pounds, al
any one time, or thirty days supply
if such supply did not exceed that
| amount.
The commission will take all the
suggestions received under immediate
consideration, and will be governed tt
a great extent, by future development!
in the general coal situation, as ap
piled to the amount of supply, nov
that the mines have re-opened.
AS further step in protecting tn,
coal car supply and securing th'
maximum service, the Pennsylvani;
Railroad is making special efforts t.
insure that the most effective possible
use shall be made of its specially de
signed heavy capacity coal cars. Ii
addition to cars of the usual type, tn
Pennsylvania owns 30,264 open-to
steel cars of 100000 pounds capacit.
each. These cars. were built expressl
to meet the conditions and require
ments of the heavy coal traffic, but a
present 81 per cent. of them are o.
the lines of our railroads. The com
pany is endeavoring to secure thei
return as rapidly as practicable.
The coal traffic department of tn
road Thursday inaugurated a cam
paign to enlist the cooperation of a
shippers and consignees of coal, in tn
! effort to conserve these cars and us
them to the best advantage. 1t

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The Anti

posa that Congress, with view to

Wayne b. Wheeler, general counsel
of the organization, announcing to-
day that representatives OF the league

eight States and the District OF Co
lumbia, had voted unanimously at a
meeting to fight such resolution, de-
clared the findings of such com

is necessary to enforce the Elgh-
