ALL COAL MUST HE ORDERED THROUGH COMMITTEE Tho coal committee appointed by the city council Tuesday evening, consist ing of J. V. Romigh, J. C Wilson nnd Fred J. Dlenor, opened an office In the Romigh garago early Wednesday fore noon. An Investigation -of tho avail able supply of coal was at onco mado and tho result was somewhat alarm ing. Tho supply consisted of twonty flve tons of slack available at tho wat er plant, about fifteen tons of coke and two tohs of anthracite, certainly a meagro supply for tho committee to begin business on. Tho opening of tho office soon became known and bo fore ten o'clock applicants began to appear, and throughout tho day, tho committee was kept busy, a total of ninety-llvo orders being used during the day. Tho quality of tho stock on hand was not altogether satisfactory to the applicants, but realizing that It was slack, coke, anthraclto or none, tho applicants accepted such as they could get and woro on the whole thank ful. Only BOO pounds woro allotted to each applicant. During Wednesday J. V. Romigh, of tho committee, got In touch with Genl. Manager Jeffers, of tho Union Pacific, and with tho state federal fuel administrator. To these Mr. Romigh stated the actual condi tion of the conl situation In North Platte, with tho result that throo cars of coal wero ordered placed at tho disposal of the North Platto commit tee.
