AGITATION GROWS 7/ FOR COAL PRICES football S Public Anxious for Word From Fed- eral Administration on Fixed Cost for This City. Ten days have passed since hear- ings on the price of coal were held in this city, and hundreds of house- holders are anxiously awaiting the promised reduction before they lay in their winter supply. The figures de- cided on by the local committee, con- sisting of E. W. Christ, A. N. Abbe and W. J. Farley, have been in the hands of the federal coal adminis- tration for more than a week, but have not been endorsed. It is said that New Britain was the first eity in the state to make its re- port through its local committee of investigation, and it is belleved that the delay in announcing prices is due to the tardiness of other places. The committee expects to receive ruthor- ity to publish the prices within a few hours, at the latest. Although there has been no great reduction in prices since the commit- tee held the hearings, coal today is selling for $10.50 per ton for nut and egg, in comparison with $11 and $11.25, the cost before the hearings opened. With colder weather ap- proaching, those who have nont se- cured their winter supply are agi- tated at the delay by the federal ad- ministration in announcing the price which will be fixed by the govern- ment. It is understood that it will be considerably lower than the present cost. e MARRIED 61 YEARS AGO. Former Town Treasurer and Mrs. Samuel Clark Plan Observance.

Washington, Nov. 8.—Possible reg- ulation of retall coal prices was in- | dicated by the fuel administration to- day in instructions to state fuel ad- empowering them to change methods of fixipg retail mar- gins.

Still another, recommended telegraphing to Wil- llam Jennings Bryan, as an authority on holes as he seemed to be such an adept at getting into them. After a walt of half an hour, Sam- low solved the problem. He asked for a truce, which was willingly given by the diggers. Then he invited them into an adjacent thirst quenchery. Three silent cheers were given. In the T. Q. the spirits rose—and it is true that some went down. Then back to the hole. Samlow saw to it that he arrived first. With neatness and disbatch he jumped into the excavation- and de- clared the truce off. Another walit. Finally, after he had been in the hole for two hours, Samlow asked for an- other cessation of hostilities. Three more cheers. A short walk. Yes, they’d have some more. Samlow wasn't such a bad fellow after all. Yes, another round. After they came to think it over Samlow was a pretty good fellow. One more - Tround, please. After all was said and done, Samlow was the best fellow on the street. A fourth round. Whoever says anything against Samlow has got to fight. To make a long story short, the pole was not placed in the new hole and the workmen left wishing Samlow a merry Christmas and a happy New Year, not to mention several other holidays on the calendar.

It appeared for a time after the failure of the KDrYllofl rebellion that he might succeed “in tiding Russia over the dangerous shoals-upon which she had drifted as the result of her dlvided councils. That -he was be- coming discouraged over the situa- tion, however, was indicated by a re- ‘cent interview with him in which, al- though he declared Russia was still emphatically in the war, he asserted she had been worn out by the strug- gle and felt she had a right to claim that her allies henceforth assume the heavier part of the burden.

Some say that Count von Hertling’s chancellorship is in danger of immediate shipwreck. The refusal of Herr Freilburg, lead- er of the liberal party, to accept the vice presidency of the Prussian min- istry and the alleged certainty that Dr. Helffrich is to be retained as vice chancellor are regarded as matters im- possible of settlement. Count Von Hertling is reported to have suc- cumbed to military and junker in- fluence. The Berliner Tageblatt refers to the reacttonary fofces opposing the nomi- nation of progressive leaders. The Koelnische Zeitung blames the pro- gressives and the socialists for the re- awakening of the crisis, and says that the prospect for a political truce has quite disappeared.
