K. Field, president of the Pittsburgh Coal Com pany, declared to-day that $5 coal and $8 coke was due almost entirely to the car shortage. While there is a scarcity of minors, he said, there are enough to operate the mines of the Pittsburgh district to 80 per cent, of their rated capacity, but they are in reality op erating less than 50 per cent, because it is impossible to obtain cars. Ore shippers, continued Mr. Field, send iron ore into the Pittsburgh district in hopper cars, and as soon as the ore is unloaded the hopper openings are cov ered with heavy planking and the cars use to ship finished steel products in stead of being sent to the Northwest and West with coal. Coal mines never have any incoming freight and have to depend on the car supply as it is doled out to them. Other operators were qually em phatic, saying they could take care of almost double their present coal and coke tonnase if they had the cars, and consequently prices would not be so high. Even at the prevailing prices •\ ery little free coal and coke is avail able, producers devoting their entire energies to filling contracts taken at about one-half the prices now quoted in the open market.

In a report issued to-day on 'nomenclature of aeronau tics" the name airplane is substituted for any "form of aircraft heavier than air which has wing surfaces for sus tentation, with stabilizing surfaces, rudders, for steering and power plant for propulsion through the air. The landing gear may be suited for either land or water use." ! An introduction to the report says i it is issued to eliminate duplications i and erroneous use of aerona.utical ] terms. Only new terms, peculiar to I aeronautics, are defined in the ap -1 pended list of 142 words and phrases. J Examination of the preferred terms i shown, indicates that an effort has 1 been made to eliminate also all ] foreign words which have come into ! use through the developments of air- I craft. Most of these are French. Very I few such words have been retained, I however, even such terms as vol i plane being discarded in favor of I glide and vol-pique rejected for nose j dive. One French term retained is ! abre, which is defined as meaning the I flying attitude of a machine which | travels "down by the stern" when in i the air.

The state ment was without political purpose and ought to be without political ef fect. It will have served its entire purpose if it serves notice upon the lawless people in Mexico that we havo been warned and are prepared." Secretary Baker declared it was "ab surd" to suppose that his statement had been intended to imply that my political interest in the United State's desired anything other than peace on the border. "St)ch a thing could not be," he said. Asked just what Interests he charg ed were behind the movement. Secre tary Baker dictated this statement: "The Mexicans who oppose the, de facto government in Mexico would, of course, be glad to complicate relations between tho United States and Mexico and our information Is that they think this an appropriate time to do so. The statement made last night by the department ought to discourage any advance on their part in that direc tion. "Everybody knows that many Mexi cans in this country are constantly agitating against the de facto govern ment. Any sympathy there may be on the American side of the border with the movement is wholly from this souroe. "The only possible suggestion of a political purpose (in the war depart ment's statement) is to prevent people in Mexico from creating a disturbance of a political character in furtherance of their own design." Part of tho information which led to his statement, the secretary said, reached him yesterday afternoon with in a few minutes of the time he left to deliver a campaign speech in West Virginia. Mr. Baker, It was learned, took his advices up with Secretary Lansing and the latter Is said to have } advised that there be no delay In mak ing public the substance of the infor mation. i Secretary Lansing views the Infor mation, although somewhat indefinite as to individuals, as showing a dan gerous situation alone the border. Publication of the fact that, the gov ernment has taken steps to checkmate such a movement, he believes, goes l'ar toward preventing an attacjc either upon a border town or upon General Pershing's forces. Secretary Baker indicated that no immediate movement of General Per shing's columns were contemplated. He refused to say, however, whether orders had been given to meet an at tack. He gave the impression that Generals Funston and Pershing might have been directed to take certain steps of a retaliatory nature, should an attack be made upon their forces, or that the department had such or ders under consideration. "I have nothing to say on that sub ject," was his only response to every question in regard to orders sent to the border. The Department of Justice was in vestigating the reports in an effort to prosecute any persons who may bo directing the plot from the American side of the border. Secretary Lansing expressed the opinion that no Ameri cans were involved, although Kliseo Arredondo, Mexican ambassador-de signate, said similar reports reaching hiin two weeks ago indicated Ameri can advocates of intervention in Mex ico were assisting Mexican bandits in planning the raid. Mr. ljinung authorised following statement: "I was quite correctly reported lasl night in the statement that Secretary Baker's announcement was inspired by absolutely no political considera tions as to this country. Nor does it mean to Infer that Americans of any sort are Involved in the plot. There are many Mexican j-efugeecs in this country who are fdmical to the President's Mexican policy who would doubtless consider the present time as ripe for the furtherance of their pro jects. The silver which is known to have gone from this country to Mexi can bandits was not necessarily from Americans. Indeed I cannot conceive that there is any American citizen who is so heartless, so entirely cruel, so wanton as to take a political step that would involve American lives. "The warning was given simply to protect American lives and property and I have every hope it will be effec tive." Willcox Scores Baker For His Recent Actions in Reported Bandit Attack New York, Oct. I(27.—William R. Willcox, chairman of the Republican National Committee, Issued a state ment to-day in reference to the one last night by Secretary of War Baker that definite information had been re ceived by the War Department, that a bandit attack upon American troops or an American border town had been arranged to take place before election day by "enemies of the administra tion's policy toward Mexico." Mr. Willcox alluded also to Secretary of State Lansing's declaration that the War Department's statement waa not Intended as an assault upon the ad ministration's political opponents. "In view of Secretary Lansing's statement In the morning papers," said Chairman Wilicox, "Mr. Baker was guilty either of amazing stupidity or of a disingenuous attempt to Rain votes for Mr. Wilson by misrepresentation. If Mr. Lansing is quoted corrsctly, ho went over the Baker statement before it was issued and the Baker statement therefore appears to be the joint product of Mr. Wilson's two cabinet officers. There can be little doubt in i the minds of anyone what this state- I ment was designed to accomplish. The I careful phrasing of Mr. Baker shows j an attempt to make political capital out of what he appears to have re- I ' garded as an impending disaster on j the Mexican border. This political cap jital was to be gained by charging that. I enemies of Mr. Wilson's policy with | regard to Mexico were behind it and | that the attempt was to take place be -1 tween naw and election. Other parts of Mr. Baker's statement are suscept ible of the same interpretation. "If, as Mr. Lansing says, Mr. Baker 1 made this statement without eompre -1 bending that it was a veiled charge against American citizens, thereby im plying the infamous guilt of treason, ihen Mr. Baker has once more dls -1 pluyed the remarkable bias of mind which prompted him to make his un patriotic statement regarding revolu tionary soldiers in his speech in Jersey City. Jf, on the other hand, Mr. Baker For Service, Price and Quality This Store Has No Equal When we opened our new store at 18 N. Fourth St. —a thought came to us that if we would eliminate the general large profits on jewelry we would sell more, and we are glad to announce that our theory was cor rect. 1 To say we are pleased is putting it mildly—as our business has been far beyond our expectations. Should you at any time be in our vicinity, we will appreciate a call and it will be a pleasure to us to show you our splendid stocks of Watches, Diamonds, Silver ware, etc. ipf Kohner^s—Where Low Prices Prevail deliberately attempted to create po litical capital out of a national disas* ter his position is infamous." Mr. Willcox added that if the War Department had information in regard to the expected attack, "it is the duty of the administration to use every power of the government to find out the guilty ones and punish them."
