PAGE EIGHT BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUN! CANADA FIRST “ON COAL SENT 10 NORTHWEST Northern Dealers Are Paying Reckless Prices at the Ports “FREEZE OUT” AMERICA Canada Is Still Far Behind in Coal Supplies, Despite Strenuous Buying Minneapolis, Minn., Aug. Cani- da is playing a game of “freeze out” with America as a result of which the Northwest may find itself freezing next winter from a severe coal short- age. This was disclosed upon receipt of information in Minneapolis that Can- adian dealers are bending effort to get their coal supply in ahead of American, dealers and are bidding for coal at Lake Erie ports at a reckless price. e Canadian government has guaranteed Canadian opérators a pro- fit no matter at what pfice they buy coal,” said W. Ll. Groverman, secre- tary of the Northwest Coal Dock Op- erators. “They ‘are buying coal at any price and making it increasingly difficult for the Northwest to get a coal supply at a fair figure. Canada Also Far Behind. “Canada, up to August 1, had re- ceived 1,708,000 tons. Last year dur- ing the entire season they got 4,533,000 tons and in 1918 6,420,000 tons. Can- ada also is far behind its receipts of coal up to the present time as com- pared, with this date last year.” | In the meantime, the Northwest still is far behind its allotted supply and the. situation is growing more critical every day, according to Alexis Caswell, secretary of the Manufactur- ers’ club. “The situation is critical not only for the Twin Cities and those who re- ly upon coal by lake,” said Mr. Cas- well, “but also to cities in the state who receive their coal by rail from Indiana and Illinois fields. If the lake cities fail to get enough coal, the interior cities will face strong com- petition for the coal by rail. For that reason, it behooves the entire North- - wert to take a hand in this situation and to realize how serious it is.” figures given out by Mr. Caswe!l show that of the entire coal supply of 7,986,775 tons at Lake Erie ports from April 1 to August 15, Canada re- ceived 2,293,633 .tons and American operators 5,693,152 tons. During the time \that order No 10 of the Interstate Commerce commis- sion has been in force, only 45,214 cars of coal were dumped at Lake Erie ports, as compared with 63,153 cars during the same period last year when there was no preferential order for the Northwest. The railroads are still far from full compliance with the -4.600 cars a day order, the figures show. Cn Aug. 19, dumpings were 2,526 cars with 2,482 cars received at all Lake Erie ports; on August 18, dumpings were 3,292 cars, with 3,450 cars received. Last year, up to August 14, 47.039 cars were dumped, as compared with only 31,974 cars this year. Order Obeyed 60 Per Cent, “The railroads have averaged only about 60 per cent compliance with Or- der No. 10 in furnishing cars at the mines,” said Mr. Caswell. “Every day brings us nearer the close of navigation, about December 10, after which there is no more hop? At the corner of a New York street a tall man stood with a map in his hand, at which lie gazed with a puzzled air. .A kind- ly passer-by tapped his shoulder and offered to di- rect him, upon which the man with the map smiled, showing several gold teeth as a result. “I reckoned I'd figure it out vurry well,” he said, “with this little old map, but I seem kinder beat.” “Yes,” said the other soothingly, “I dare say you’d have managed very well. But you're looking at a map of Chicago.” But you won't need a map when you're looking for; good hardware—all roads lead to this store, and whether your needs be large or small, you can save money on your pur- chases, receive courteous treat- ment and the quality of the goods can be depended upon— we guarantee that.

He has evidence to support his charges that $15,000,000 was, the republicah “low mark, with the sky apparently the limit.” ° The governor today received a tele- tion to be given the committee. Sen- ator Reed said the committee would be given “careful and thorough” in- vestigation. That “a great deal of money is to be expended outside of the republi- can national committee” fund was stated by Gov. Cox in commenting on New York newpspaper jreports of subscriptions to an alleged history by William Barnes, Jr., New York Re- publican leader. The nominee also made public a telegram to W. P. G. Harding, governor of the federal re- serve board at Washington, request- ing that steps be taken to aid in mov- ing the fall crops. U. S.

Well Organized The reception at the’Elks’ hall was not held because of the fact that the party was late returning from the ball game and therefore fell behind their schedule.
