The United States fuel admin istrator, acting under the au thority of an executive oruer of the x J resident of the United .states dated 2i August, 1917, appointing saitr administrator, in furtherance of the purposes of said ortler and of the pur poses of the act of Congress therein referred to, approved 10 August, 1917, and nuuing it essential effectively to carry out the provisions ot this act, to make provision for a more ade quate supply of fuel for rail roads, domestic consumers, pub lic utilities an,d for other uses necessary to the national se curity in certain parts of the United States, hereby makes and prescribes the following regula tion: Section I.

Sec. VI. No fuel shall be burned on any of the Mondays FACTORIES AND MILLS ARE CLOSED [Continued from Mrst Page.] doing repair or other permissible work. A large part of Harrisburg's pop ulation, both male and female, awoke this morning with nothing to do, as the city's industrial plants entered upon the enforced holiday ordered by the federal fuel administration. Plants, large and small, everything in which any work is done "was closed. Effects of the closing order could be seen early in the morning when the streets which are ordi narily filled with men and women on their way to work in mills and fac tories were deserted except for the small number that could be placed at tasks that require neither light nor power. It was estimated in business cir cles that approximately 20,000 per sons are out of work. This number, it was said, will be increased nearly threefold Monday when the first of the absolute holidays is begun. Businessmen Protest The storm of protest occasioned yesterday when the order was pro mulgated was nothing compared with the declarations to-day of business men who are seriously inconven ienced and workmen whose pay en velopes are to be slashed. There was, however, no disposition to avoid the order. It was again pointed out that a fine of $3,000 and a prison term awaits the man who refuses to com ply with the order. It was generally understood here to-day that the government does not intend to notify businessmen except through the newspapers of the order. The published order to-day made it plain, too, that the administration's order does not forbid a man to work on outside tasks. There is no reason, it was shown, why men engaged in hauling, building or repair work should not continue if neither fuel nor power is used in the enterprise. Ross A. Hickok, Dauphin county fuel administrator, received a lengthy telegram from State Admin istrator Potter last night, outlining the ruling of the national proclama tion, and authorizing him to ad here to it in every respect. Mr. Hickok was able to announce at noon that manufacturers of Har risburg and vicinity are complying with the regulations in every way. Blast furnaces in the large plants are running. Mr. Hickok said. Manu facturing plants that have been run ning seven days a week, are not in cluded in the order from Potter. Public service plans are operating to-day. To Divert Fuel All of Harrisburg's business, In dustrial and amusement men arc preparing to shut their places of business the next ten days. Mr. Hickok has been assailed with hun dreds of telephone calls this morn ing, from those affected by the order, who desire information on the Mon day closing. To all, Mr. Hickok's order has been to follow to the let ter, the ruling of Dr. Garfield's proc lamation. The Harrisburg Public Library and the P*d Cross head quarters have been ordered to close the ten Mondays. Mr. Hickok said that the local benefit derived from the closing would bo that the dealers, and pub lic utilities corporations will be stocked up with a plentiful supply of bituminous coal. The coal dis patched to the industries ordered closed for the next five days be fore midnight last night, will be de livered to its destination. All other cars usually used by the closed down industries will be diverted either at the mines or on the road, from their original destinations at the mills, to dealers for family consumption, to public utilities, or for transport service. Mr. Hickok said that he has been told that twenty-flve trans pcrts are tied up in New York har bor for lack of fuel to run their engines. May Get Bituminous Bituminous coal may be used in private homes extensively, when an thracite is scarce, Mr. Hickok said. The Harrisburg Light and Power Company, which has been suffering with a lack of bituminous and river coal, and the Harrisburg Railways Company, which secured coal only alter strenuous efforts last week, will be stocked up during the five days shutdown of industries, it is understood. Mr. Hickok made a few exceptions to the shutting down order in the city to-day. He has allowed a pretzel factory, which does not consume coal, to run during the five days. Blacksmith shops have been permit ted to run .classed as a necessary in dustry. A garage which communi cated with Mr. Hickok this morning, was permited to carry on some slight repairs. With these minor exceptions, the order of the national administrator is being carried out, Mr. Kickok said this morning. 0 Dry Federation to Meet Here For State Session Colonel Theodore Roosevelt and "Billy" Sunday have'been invited to speak at a convention of the Pennsyl vania Dry Federation, to be held in the Chestnut Street Auditorium, Feb ruary 14.

GARFIELD, United States Fuel Administra tor. CITY COAL SHORTAGE REACHES ACUTE STAGE [Continued from First Page.] ministrator, and to the Reading operators, to get shipments for the Hill district, but so far without suc cess. Mr. Hickok declared this morning that he does not have the power to commandeer coal without specia orders from Mr. Potter. It has been said that there is much coal on railway sidings near Harris burg, that is standin gidle. Much Suffering That there is suffering in some parts of the city to-day is certain. The coal dispensing bureau, at the Chamber of Commerce office, an nounced this morning that even they can not get coal delivered by the dealers to-day. The only orders they make out that are fiilled are the ones that are. for the sick. Until to-day, the emergency coal orders have been filled, but only one-third of them are being attended to by dealers to-day. J. E. Dare, coal dealers, received one of the two small cars of coal that came into the city this morning. I The twenty-seven tons in the car were sold by noon. The coal was sold to almost frantic coal sufferers that swarmed over the car as it stood on the railroad sidings, a few moments after its arrival, and filled wash boilers, burlap bags, wash tubs, sleds, baby buggies and bushel bas kets, with small quantities of the coal, and threw the money for it to the employes of the company. Mr. Dare announced that he did not dare make a single delivery of the coal, owing to the fact that there were too many coal consumers there to buy the coal in bushel lots and carry it themselves. Mr. Dare is supplied by the Reading Coal and Iron Company. The J. H. Gates Company received the other car of coal which is known to have come into the city. No Coal In Sight As far as can be learned, the last I coal received In the city over the j Pennsylvania lines was last Wednes i day, when the last of about twenty two cars arrived In the city, divided between three dealers. Two dealers received four cars each. One dea'.er reports his cars entirely sold, one has 25 tons Ift in his yard, and the dealer who received 14 cars during the week preceding Wednesday, says It has been sold. One of these dealers has received three cars of coal to-day. Every dealer in the city was asked about the coal situation this morn ing, and almost unanimously they agreed that they have no coal. One of the few dealers in the city who has a"" supply of coal, is taking fif teen of the Chamber of Commerce emergency orders every day. The rest of the dealers reported that they have received no advance notice sof coal shipments. All of the dealers reported that people arc | so anxious to get coal that they arc willing to come and deliver it them selves in any quantities. Following is a list of the dealers who reported themselves entirely without coal, and without notices of shipments: The Howard Fry Coal Company, B. F. Hoffman, who re ceived one car Monday, and one on Tuesday; J. H. Landis, who has not had coal for ten days, J ,M. T jehr, J. E .Roads, and Silberman Brothers. The rest of the dealers have a few tons in their yards, which they declare are oversold.
