COAL RUSH T0 DOCKS CLAIMED One Railroad Places an Em- bargo Upon Shipments St, Paul, Minn., Sept. 14.—Th: influx of bituminous coal to Late Frie points is so great that tlic Baltimore and Ohio railroad, o1 of the principal carriers of coal i: the soft coal regions, placed a tem porary embargo on all shipments to continue until all docks at east- ern points are able to load the fuel, C. P. White, federal distributor for the Northwest, was advised today. The coal is coming in such large quantities that dock facilities can- not cope with the situation and the embargo was made necessary to clear the congestion, Mr. White said. Mr. White again emphasized the need of consumers of coal in the Northwest, including the public utilities companies, to begin the purchase of their supplies of bi- tuminous if the coal is to begin to move into this district.
