He issued l in formal statement showing the cause for the continuation of these rules. He said that the weekly production had been cut from 12,000,000 tons to 5,000,000. that the railroads were ton-ed to supply districts nomlly Supplied from nearer fields, and that it would be some time before the mines could be supplied with cars to move the coal dug under the renewed Operation. Meanwhile the thousands of empty rs on hundreds of sidings in the 'tuminous coal areas will be filled ' d started on their way to the most ‘ edy sections. The optimistic View i‘ the by the first week the fuel crisis 'ill have begun to subside. The end of the strike came and the . cial order to resume work was is- ’ ed when President Wilson’ 8 propos- if] for the settlement of the tieup was adopted yesterday afternoon by the llnl‘m officials. Though there had fleen violent discussion. only one dis- Qenting vote was cast against accept- ane. o E Saving Rules Remain ' The need for conserving coal ’does IEot end with the calling oil’ of the atrike, and the restrictions will be finforced for an indefinite period.

With the stores open only from noon to six o'clock in the evening. train service cut rm loin the electric and steam lines, shivering in a wave of zero weather, Highland Park is beginning to fool the. efl'ect of the miners' strike and the nationwide fuel shortage. small egg coal, and supplies of Poco- hontas mine run and coke. Paul Borchardt is supplying his customers with coke and mine run coal; but ha; no hard or soft coal. Middleton Clark have some range coal, 3 supply of small egg conl, and some nut and coke. Only heat enough may be used to keep the buildings at an averagevof 68 degrees. After closing time there shall be only enough heat to keep the pipes from freezing. Some Are Exempied Railroad stations, hotels, hospitals, telephone, telegraph, and newspaper offices are exempt in so far as neces- sary lighting is concbrned. Dairies, refrigerator plants, bakeries, waterâ€" works, newspaper prlnt shops: and plants producing power for some pub- lic utility are also exempted from the fuel rulings.

HIGHLAND PARK’S BUSINESS COMPLIFS WITH FUEL RUUHG 'nw Coal Supply Although the thermometer hovers about the zero mnrk, Highland Park is facing the fuel crisis with little prospect of a famine. A canvass of the local denlera reveals the fact that there is a sufficient supply of fuel to keep the city wum until the fresh supply from the mines that Are reâ€" opening begins to arrive. The Highland Park Fuel company is supplying chestnut hard coal to anyone who asks to buy it. Their sup- ply of soft coal has run out; but there is quite a little Pocohontas mine run on hand. The Frank Siljestrom coal company has no soft coal, but plenty of hard coal and mine run. The Mutual Coal company has some Col] 01: the W” Each of the dealers has big orders for coal, and they expect delivery on these orders to start a week or ten days after the miners have returned to work.
