Very Little Coal In Storage The following re port appears in a re cent coal trade jour-, nal:— "The coal companies have not been able to stock coal during the past two months, as custom ary during normal sea sons. "On the contrary, some of them have been com pelled to pick up consider able coal from such stor age piles as remained over from the past mild winter. With labor at the mines seriously short, and many other causes contributing toward a smaller produc tion, the operators cannot hold any hope to the gen eral trade that there will be an increase in produc tion during the Fall months."

HAHRISBU7IG TELEGRAPH WILSON HIT HARD BLOWBYMR.TAFT Assails War and Mexican Poli cies; Would Have Rec v ognized Huerta Ex-President Taft, in a copyright article in the Yale Review for October, discusses at length Issues of the presi dential campaign, analyzing the record of the present administration. Ex tracts from his article follow: "If within one month after the Lusl tanla tragedy avowal or disavowal had been exacted from Germany, as it was later, by a threat of severance of diplo matic relations in case of avowal, we should have been in a much better position than we are to-day. The proneness of the administration to write a note well and appropriately phrased and to deem the incident closed has exposed the nation to ridi cule. The administration cannot say that it has thus kept us out of war, for it has itself demonstrated by the result of its ultimate demand that it might earlier have secured the same result without loss of prestige and the actual loss of lives which the delay has entailed." Mexican Policy Criticised "The ntxt feature of Mr. Wilson's foreign policy, the consideration of which forces itself upon the electorate, is that pursued in Mexico." "Attempt is made to avoid responsi bility for the palpable blunders In Mexico by saying that the situation was an 'inheritance' from the last ad ministration. The slightest consid eration of the facts and dates shows the lack of weight In such a defense." I "Had the Republican administration | continued, it would have recognized Huerta." "I am surprised that Secretary Baker seeks to justify President Wilson's re fusal to recognize Huerta by saying that I refused to do so. This Is very far from the fact. With the proba bility of settling the pending claims by a short delay and with less than a fort night before the coming into power of a new President, it would have been not only hasty and premature, but it would have been lacking in proper consideration for me to determine an important policy for him. The great European powers recognized Huerta, but not until a month after President Wilson came Into office. The last ad ministration went out of power having done nothing to embarrass the sit uation with which President Wilson had to deal."
