Chicago Pays the Best. Anthracite can be sold at a profit of 32 a ton in excess of the Eastern price in Chicago, St. Louls and other Western 8. Another factor that is Impelling the operators to divert their product to the West {s thelr fear that if the West- ern supply were cut off for an entire season the : .rket would be lost. Mean. while the famine here has brought about conditions of actual suffering, Coal is being sold at 2 cents a pail on the east side to-day. Those who can not afford that price are compelled to put up with the discomfort of soft coal, and the de- mand for that commoc..y has already increased {ts price. Bituminous was sell- ing at $6 a ton to-day but dealers say that the price will advance to $10 within a week.

Simmons, of the Department of Supplies of the School Board, said to- day that Just now all the schools had suiclent coal to heat them for thirty | class days, He does not anticipate any suspendion of classes due to a shortage of coal. | No Charity Coal. | None of the charitable societies in this clty have yet made provision for the dis- tribution of fuel among the poor, though it Is evident that there will be more| people suffering from its lack this year | than éver before.
