$500 CARS OF COAL
CAN FIND NO BUYER
Anthracite Lies in HarbOr Ter
minals, Tying Up Railway
Carriers.

With the coal shortage in New York
still acute there were $500 open top
freight cars filled with approximately
100000 tons Of anthracite coal in the
New York harbor terminals yesterday
for which Il buyer could not be found.
The coal was of three grades-buck-
wheat, rice and barley. all small sizes.
Railroad officials expressed alarm that
the tying up of these cars might serve
to make more acute the metropolitan
districts fuel position.
The grades of anthracite for which
demand has slumped are steam sizes"
The imports of British steam coal are
believed to have been in sufficient guam
titles to satisfy all demands for the
present. There is rush of apartment
house owners and industrial leaders for
bltuminous coal with which to stock
their bins. while at the same time there
is an adequate supply of steam grades
Of anthracite at terminals in New York
harbor
The railroads bearing the brunt of the
situation include the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western. Lehigh Valley
Jersey and Erie. Operating officials said
that because of the lack of demand for
steam coal, the larger mining companies
had shut their washeries.
Railroad men argue that If the pub
lie can be brought to understand that
all this coal is available the accumula-
tion can be eliminated quickly with
resultant increased movement of all
kinds of anthracite, as we'll as greater
general production. Figures made pub
lie yesterday by the car service division
of the American Railway Association
indicate that steady gains are being
made in the movement of anthracite
coal by the important carr .ers. On
Tuesday of this week anthracite load
ings totaled 6,056 cars, an increase of
224 over the preceding day and 203 cars
above the daily average for October.
1921 Bitu:ainors loadingS declined
10.041 on Tuesday. standing at 2S,047
cars. Loading for that day We're also
299S cars below the daily average for
October, last year. The slump in an
thracite is explained on the ground that
Mondays haul was exceptionally large.
due to the accumulation of open tops
over the week end.

ing of the testimony and examination
OF exhibits in the divorce suit brought
by James A. Stillman against his wife,
Mrs. Anne Urquhart Stillman. which re-
suited in Referea Daniel J. Gleason de-
Gliding in Mrs. Stillman's favor. Jus
tice Morschauser announced that he will
hand down his decision this morning on
the motion of counsel for Mrs Stlllman
to confirm the report.
Ever since William Rand, as attorney
for Mr.. Stillman. fled objections TO the
report OF the referee. which not alone
throws out Mr.. Stilman's divorce suit
but decides against his charge that Fred
Beauvais, Canadian guide. was the father
of Baby Guy Stillman. Justice Nor
schauser has been working far into the
night and most of the daytime reading
the testimony. which covers 2,S00 type
written pages.
Justice Morschauser locked himself in
his chambers to-day and would see no
callers. Frequently he had a court Of
ficer bring him an armful Of law books.

passed upon by Justice Norschauser
when he files his memorandum. These
fees would have to be paid by Mr. Still
