The advan tages of publicity in helping to con trol the spinal meningitis outbreak here became a parent today. Under big headlines local papers have for days published all facts obtainable about meningitis. The result is a public sentiment, physicians say, which helps better to enforce quarantine and makes concealment of the disease next to impossible. At headquarters for control of the outbreak it was said the diagnosing phvsicians are receiving almost instant notice of anything which remotely re sembles meningitis, with the result that each case is caught in its earliest stages and placed where it cannot spread the infection. m'in On account of the, rarity of menin gitis there is some question whether a quarantine is strictly legal under he state code, dut. puouu emnUed the authority which possioiy idoes not" exist in the U law.

On the left is the Kaiser, who has recognized the importance of the election by taking part in the campaign himself the first time in the history of modern Germany that the Emperor has not preserved a neutral attitude. He caused the distribution of instructions to village prefects to ascertain the public opinion and meet it "with practical replies." On the right are Chan cellor Von Bethmann-Hoilweg (above) and Secretary of Foreign Affairs Von Kiderlen-Waecrjter, who have put into execution the policy of the Kaiser for high tariffs and taxes, that has called forth a nation-wide, protest of the masses of Germany's population. Their handling f the Moroccan, Turkish and Congo situations during the last year also has caused abuse to be heap ed upon their heads. An overwhelming victory. for the Socialistic parties today as seems certain to be the case may mean that the Kaiser will move for the dismissal of his two chief counsellors and executives.

Coal dealers here are reaping a rich harvest as a conse quence of the ballot of the coal miners, which unofficial, reports state to be largely in favor of a nationwide strike for a fixed minimum wage. The dis pute affects about 900,000 men. There is - no doubt that the requisite two thirds majority in favor of a strike has been secured but that fact does not necessarily1 mean that.the strike 'will occur, for the employers and workers have until the end of February to reach a settlement and the prospects of an agreement being arrived at are favorable.- , The public, however, appears not to be aware of this circumstance and or ders are pouring into the coal dealers. The result is that the price of coal at j the mine head has been raised 50 cents a ton tor the best nousenom coai wnne retail dealers have increased the price to consumers from 75. to '84 cents a ton. The admiralty is storing big reserves of coal and orders have been issued to commanders of war vessels to econo mize and to utilize oil fuel as much as possible. SUNDAY DELIV ERY OF COAL In view of the fact that so many people are in "need of fuel, Mayor Bland has issued a permit allowing the fuel dealers to make deliveries tomor row. This will prove a great con venience to the public, for in many in stances families have allowed .their supply to run short and a great num ber of people get paid off Saturdays too late to get fuel today, therefore, tomorrow's deliveries will, in many cases, relieve needs. , , By Associated Press-. ,?
