COAL consumers frequently desire to
use the old supply before putting
more in the cellar.
When coal bins are practically empty you
don't want to wait an indefinite time for
your new supply. You want to know when
the coal will come, so that you may attend
to more important duties than wait for the
driver to arrive.
We own 88 head of horses for use in
Harrisburg. Furthermore, we operate three
large coal yards—one on Allison Hill at
Fifteenth and Chestnut streets, the second
"in the heart of the City" at Forster and
Cowden streets and the third uptown at
Seventh and Woodbine streets.
Plenty of horses and wagons, yards ad
vantageously placed, enables us to
usually deliver an order the same day it
is received.

WORLD PEACE PAUSES
WITH CHIEF STRICKEN
[Continued from First l*age.] (
ou the idea that the reluctance of j
the Kntente powers and the United j
States to defy Socialist opposition to
the use of their armies against
what some of them regard as only
a "workingmen's government" can
bo met by recourse to a volunteer
army. It is held that no difficulty
would be encountered in raising al
most any desired number of sol
diers for a Russian campaign from
the millions of men now being dis
charged from the armies of the En
tente and America.
Waiting Attitutdc Is I.ikoly
• Present indications are, however,
that this plan will not be approved
and that the Supreme Council will
fall back into a waiting attitude,
although it may be found possible
to do something in a peaceful, but |
effective, way to weaken the Soviefis j
through economic restriction.
The reparation commission of the j
peace conference yj speeding up its !
work so as to be ready to submit j
estimates of the damages Germany
must pay when data is required in
connection with the framing of the
peace treaty. It is believed that this
cannot be long after President Wil
son's return to France.
To Weigh Frontiers Claims
The official statement on the ses
sion of the Supreme Council to-day
reads:
"The representatives of the allied
and associated powers met to-day at
the Quai d'Orsay from 3 to t>
o'clock p. m.
M. Vesnitch. Zolger>and Trurn
i bitch explained the territorial
[ claims of the Serbs, Slovenes and
Croats, respectively. It was decided
to submit the question of the fron
tiers claimed, except thosq in which
Italy is directly interested, to the
commission already charged with
the examination of the question of
the Banat.
"The next meeting will take place
on Thursday at 3 p. m."
Truce to Reassure French
If the Germans observe the new
armistice terms now being framed,
involving disarmament of all but a
sufficient number of soldiers to pre
vent internal disorders, most of the
entente representatives here believe
that France need have no further
fear from that quarter and that
there can be no reason for delaying
the conclusion of a peace treaty.
