COAL SHORTAGE OF 5,000,000 TONS IN FIELDS OF INDIANA TERE HAUTE. Ind, July 14. The extent to which production of coal by Indiana mines has rallen off this year is revealed by the publication today by the Indiana Bituminous Coal Operator's Association of the production figures for the month of June. These figures disclose that, during the first six months of this year1 the amount of coal mined in this state has been less by more than 5,000.000 tons than the tonnage of the first six minths of 1918. The production the first half of this year was slightly more then 9,000.000 tons. The June production figures were 1,355.551 tons as against 1,307.325 tons In May. The increased tonnage is bo slight as to have very little appreciable effect up on next winter's requirements, the association declares. Available records for the first eight days of July show a slightly better rate of production, but this Is not nearly as large as it should be, considering the situation in which the territory served by Indiana mines is shortly to find itself. A car shortage is beginning to make itself felt. 'Their report shows for the week ending July 5 the car shortage on the Big Four railroad was 45 per cent due largely to the demand for the diversion of cars to other lines. The Chicago. Terre aHute & Southeastern, and some other lines, however, reported only slight shortages. Assuming the weekly capacity of the Indiana field to be 610,000 tons, the
i
mines worked a little less than half ! L; A dmn C J. time the week ended July 5. in which iliempi DUlCiae
they produced 303,563 tons. The field
has. therefore a handicap of something over 5,000,000 tons, which, the operators say. will be impossible to make up. Operators feel that a severe winter will, in all. probability, bring about a situation of acute distress.
