WRITE TO MAYOR WILSON
Local Coal Dealers Asked
Them to Favor Embargo

Mayor Wilson has received from
United States Senator Joseph s.
Frelinghuysen and Congressman L.
Frank Appleby assurance that they
will do all in their power to assist

placing an embargo on the exporta-
ton of coal from this country.
The mayor communicated with the
senator and congressman asking
their cooperation in this matter fol-
lowing a meeting of the coal dealers
of the city last week.
Il was brought out at the meeting
that coal was being shipped from the
United States to Canada when the
supply in this country is far from
beng sufficient to meet the demands.
The Brennan. measure would prohi-
bit the moving of coal beyond the
borders of the United gztates.
Mayor Wilson also sent COM
munication to Senator Walter Edge

honeymoon SO cannot assist at the
present time.

DRY CHRISTMAS, BUT
8 DIE OF BAD rum

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-Although
dry enforcement agents declared that
Christmas in New York was the
driest in its history, eight deaths
were attributed today to drinking
poisonous liquor. A score or more
of victims were confined to hospitals.
OF the eight persons who died, two
were women. A Brooklyn woman
was arrested as the seller of whiskey
which caused the death of one of
the women.
Prohibition Director e. C. Yellow
ley, whose aides succeeded in keep
ing the white lights DINNER than
usual, declared that while the dry
navy was busy in holding rum run
ners outside the three-mile limit,
land rum runners succeeded in an
old ruse, smuggling liquor into the
city under thousands of Christmas
trees shipped in from the Adiron-
dacks and other regions.
This liquor, however, apparently
was reserved for home consumption
as little of it was to be found in
the white light cabarets.
William Sanders, deputy surveyor
of the port, said that no case of at
tempted rum running by water was
reported over the holiday.

county, on a charge of manslaught-
er following the fatal shooting Of a
child of a neighbor of Zanosta py
the name of Moliska and was in the
kitchen while the man was cleaning
.45 calibre automatic revolver.
According to Zanosta he had I'm
ished cleaning the revolver and laid
| 1t on the table while he started to
clean the bullet magazine when his
five year old daughter Anna pulled
the trigger and the bullet entered
the head Of the Moliska child, go
ing in near her nose and penefra-
ting her skull. Death was instan-
taneous.

Course Are Days Late

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-Violent
tempests of the sort known only to
seasoned mariners of the fierce
North Atlantic, against the bowling
power of which huge ocean liners
are but fiimsy cockelshells, have
ragged through the past week, threat
ening smaller vessels with destruc-
tion, wrecking steamers deck equip
ment, driving fast liners out Of their
usual lanes and delaying them sew
eral days and striking terror to the
hearts of hundreds of passengers
locked below decks, according to
wireless reports received today.
Relentless gales, playing havoc
with the schedules of the large
steamship companies, described yes
terday by officers of the Cedric, the
iceland and the United States which
arrived several days late after
weathering the worst storms in their
histories, still are whipping the
waters of the Atlantic to fury, ac-
cording to the wireless reports.
The Manchuria and La Savoie re-
ported today they would arrive on
Thursday, two days late. The Nj
agara, due today, reported she will
try to fight her way to port tomor-
eow.
The Caronia reports from Halifax
that she had been forced to tie up
in there. The Mount Carol is due
here and the President Monroe in
London tomorrow, both far behind
schedule.
Veterans of scores of equinoctal
and mid-Winter storms who guided
liners into port yesterday said they
had never before seen the treach-
erous North Atlantic in such a pro-
racted hurricane mood as during
the last fortnight.
Captain Metcalfe, of the Cedric,
said he was forced to slow his ship
!. to five knots by a. blow only rivalled
by one he had been in off Tutticorin
in the Indian Ocean moro than
twenty years ago. The crew was in
oilskins through the trip, and pas
sengers ewre confined below decks,
