4 Production of Anthracite Held Down, It Is Charged Washington, Nov. 27.— ChUrges that corporations which control the anthracite coal fields decline to per mit the output to be increased were made before the senate investigating j committee yesterday by William Wllhelm, a lawyer of Pottsvillc, Pa. 11c also charged that no effort hasj been made by the fuel administra-1 tlon to increase production. Mr. Wilhelm told the committee! that the owners of anthracite prop- j , erty had been responsible for the i failure of New York city officials | to obtain a supply of culm to meet the fuel shortage in New York, | while Dr. Jonathan C. Day, com-i missloner of public markets of New | York, another witness said the fuel! administration had refused to give! its approval for a municipal coal yard in New York, by which Mayor Hylan and other officials hoped to Increase the coal supply and keep prices down. The fuel administra tion's objection, Doctor Day said, was based on the statement that such a plan would interfere with the administration's distribution plan. The committee was to-day told by Mr. Wilhelm that there are mines near Pottsville which could yield targe supply of coal, but he said the Reading Company, the owners, will not permit them to be wocked, because it wants to keep : production down. He said he has; written uiany letters to Washington,! urging that steps be taken to in crease anthracite production, but the only replies received were that his letters had been referred to Fuel] Administrator Garfield. , riSk Gray A preparation for restoring natural color to amy or faded hair, for removing dandruff nnd as a halrdres lug. la not a dye.

A cablegram informing him of the Peruvian apology was received last night by Mr. Ruiz from the Chil ean Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Each ten cent box of Cascarets, candy cathar tic, contains full directions for dose for children aged one year old and upwards. Nothing else "works" the nasty bile, sour fermenta tions and constipation poison from the tender little bowels so gently, yet so thoroughly. Even cross, feverish, bilious children gladly take Cascarets without being coaxed. Cascarets taste just like candy. Cascarets never gripe the little bowels, never sicken, never injure, but above all, they never disappoint the worried mother.
