WHO GETS THE MONEY f Hammond, Ind., Feb. 25, 1910. Editor Times: In these times of expensive living the wonder of the average householder is: "Who gets the money?" Many branches of trade have responded trying to absolve themselves from blame, but as yet I have seen no defense from the "coal man." I am not conversant with the prices paid by censumers of coal elsewhere, but can truly defend the Hammond coal dealer from any charge of extortion. A ton of hard coal laid down, at shed in yard costs us $0.50. Then the party unloading same gets 10 cents per ton for his
