The sup ply of Pocahontas is exceedingly low. According to Manager F. J. Jackley, of the Eaton Lighting Company, there is stored at the power plant only enough coal to last fifteen days. The company buys on contract, but has been compelled to go into the open market and buy two car loads at a big premium. Mr. Jackley has been ad vised that one of these has been ship ped, but the time of its arrival can not be calculated. Shortage of cars and mine condi tions are said to be responsible for the extremely low supply. INVENT "WAR INK" BERLIN, Nov. 6. "War ink" is the latest invention to supply an existing need.
