THREE HUNDRED TONS
That Is One Days Sales Of THE
Worlds" Cheap Coal.
Consumers Now Realize How Much
the Movement Means.
Combine Keeps Up Prices by Starv-
ing the Market

"The Worlds" fight against the coal
combine is growing hotter every day.
Yesterday he market which 1t has es-
tablished for cheap coal had another
boom. The sales of $40 coal reached
sll tons for the day, making a grand
total OF 2,s7s tons up. TO the present
time to domestic consumers in this city
and Brooklyn.
This is as 1t should be, now that the
people are becoming fully aroused to
the Importance Of this crusade against
the grasping barons. and are more
clearly comprehendin the scope and
effect Of 1.-THE Worlds movement in
their behalf.
As THE World has repeatedly point
Cd out, ,the coal mining and coal carry
trg railroads, which form the pool which
controls the market, are able to maintain
high prices for their product. by starving
the market. They do this by keeping n
large area of the coal mines out of use,
and restricting the supply. They find 1t
much more profitable to themselves to
get high price for a small production
than to sell a large amount at a lower
yrice.
they are saving the expense of large
force of miners and additional machin-
cry which would be necessary II a wider
deid were being worked. II the coal
lands which are now in control OF the
Pennsylvania companies were properly
developed. they would give employment
to thousands more workmen than are at
present engaged. The Increased demand
Tor labor would result in better wages.
and at the same time the larger produc-
tionJ OF anthracite would cheaper the
GOAL to the consumer
The coal companies. however. have no
interest either in lettering wages or
cheapening coal. Under the laws OF the
higher taxes on their undeveloped coal
lands than upon any other wild and
unimproyed land. and the result Is they
can AFFORD TO let them lie idle There is
very little doubt that II the State of
pennsylvania should compel the barons
TO pay taxes upon the full rental value
of these extensive coal lands they would
be obliged to develop them or dispose
OF them TO persons who would do so.
The anthracite combination began To
AFFECT prices seriously in 1879. Since that
creased H.25 ton In this city, though
the cost OF mining has been steadily
squeeze down and though the cost OF
transportation and OF handling the coal
Tor delivery has been reduced. IL a
frasping. selfish. hoggish and conscience
less ring were not behind II. coal would
decline In price like every other com
modify when the cost of It's production
declines.
In 1878. the year when the combine,
trust, ring gang. or whatever you may
call II began its philanthropic labors In
earnest, the price of a ton OF coal was
SIG. In the following years 1t was thus:
1919. A.6o; 1880. s.; 1881 $50; 1852. S75;
$50: 1888. S. 1889. 1915; 1890. G.5O 1881,
$50; 1892, $5.25; 1893. Sc; 1894 $50 All OF
this increase may be traced to the com
binations.
