Washington, Dec. Robustness in
terests throughout the country are
calling N the government III Increas-
ing numbers with the first touch OF
real winter, to DO something to bring
about a more stable supply and lower
prices of coal. The effects of the
long strike are becoming manifest
clearly for the first time in higher
prices and uncertainu supply at a
period when coal must be had. Hun
dreds of letters on this subject have
been received here within the past
week.
During the same period the Inter
state Commerce Commission made
public a report Of operation costs
that shows the railroads are paying
up 10 S9.05 a ton more for soft coal
than they paid a year ago, although
the cost Of producing the coal is
very little changed. The railroads
use about 100000 tons monthly.

4 81 per ton increase would mean
an additional $4,000, 900 item of ex-
pense in their budget each month.
Not all the coal used by railroads,
however. is paying the increase. that

Figures Of coal production issued
by the United States geographical
survey. all of which are being care
fully studied by the presidents fact

output of about IL, 100000 tor week
ly. Selling prices authorized by the
government in the various states
coal was sold last year, show an in
crease to the consumer Of from S1.50
to $3.50 a ton. The average increase
in selling prices of soft coal prGba-
bly, is slightly more than s. a ton as
compared with prices prevailing IN
December. 1921, and the demand for
coal-which makes possible the higher
selling price-continues strong with
the car supply insufficient
On the basis of this data, all of
which is before the fact-finding com
is paying $25.000,0W a week more
for its coal this December than it
paid last. AS the miners went back
TO work. at the end OF the strike, for
the same wages they received last
year, the cost of producing coal Is
very near the same at the present
time as it was a year ago.
Dealers Are FIourishing
Because of the SO, 100000 a week
extra profit. the coal industry is re-
ported to be in a highly flourishing
state. Notwithstanding the five
months strike, the coal operators
probably will make more money this
year than they ever made in any
single year before, and many OF them
are reported TO be preparing TO cut
fat melons in the shape of extra diyi-
dcnds Of stock or cash.
The satisfactory condition OF the
industry from the viewpoint of fiscal
profits has resulted in full time en-
ployment at high wages to every one
of fhe 10000 workers involved, ex-
cept four mines are idle for lack of
cars. Thousands Of miners are re
ported as earning from $100 to $50

charge of shot gun. He was re-
turning to Narrows after having
visited friends in an adjoining COM

BREAKING UP HOME
CAUSES MANS DEATH

Watt Ranney was shot and al
most instantly killed by Marvin
Shields near the latter's home about
two miles from Cromwell, last Fri
day. Shields alleges that Ranney
had for some time been having i'm
proper relations with his wife and
that he and others had frequently
warned him to desist, and that de-
spite these warnings Ranney con-
tinued his attentions. Finally, so it
is alleged. Shields learned that RAN
ney would visit his home, Friday,
and prepared to meet him. As he
was about to enter or at least was
nearing the home, Shields shot him
twice with shot gun, once in the
chest and once in the back of the
head. Death occurred in about an
hour. Burial occurred at Wilson
burying ground, Saturday. Both
men are about "a years of age.
Ranney was single.
Soon after the killing. Shields
gave himself up to Sheriff, C. A.
Ralph. and his examining trial was
set for last Monday. but ON that
date he waived examining trial and
will await action of the next grand
jury. He was released under
