The comptroller. the mayor and the states
attorney are all of the opinion that this
order was written by the same person who
penned the order for the s. 2. Miller rebate.

this new case seems to verify the theory that
that system of fraudulently collecting rebate

be made. The T. T. Spencer. whose name
was forged to the order, and who was rep
resented by printed letter head to be a
lumber dealer in Syracuse. turns out to be
Franklin F. Spencer, of the firm of Hib-

coincidence IN this matter is the fact that at

the comptroller's Office. boOkkeeper for

every year about $4,000, 600 tons of anthra-

Again, there are probably loo, 900 workingmen
engaged in the coal traffic. The better the
price of coal the more they get for wages
and it is now too late to deny that good wages
and pros erity go hand in hand. If the gov

the whole matter.
Reporter-What is that?
Mr.. Gowen-The combination this year has
been under the control of the receivers, aud
everybody knows that the result of their COM

balance sheets show it. You can see, their
idea of managing the trade was to restrict
production and reduce prices. They have a
cloud of lawyers advising Them and l suppose
they had legal opinion that combinations to
advance prices were Illegal But they had
heard that combination in the coal trade
was important, and so in order to be on the
safe side, they determined that their COM

attorney general gets after them they can
prove an alibi.
