In a short time this truckman would re- turn with a wagonload, for which he Sexton street last night and five of where he secured 1t.
 This business man went on 10 say that coal is now retailing at SIP 8 ton in that vicinity and that the private. citizens are pther peppery about the whole matter, since they feel that they are being robbed.
 This feeling of wrath on the part of the citizenry was borne out by Mir Mildrum, who said that people with whom he talked were inclined to become explosive after few min utes of conversation about the coal sit2ation. And then, on the other hand, there were many people who weal6 gay. nothing about the strike
