VOICE OF ST. JOHN CRYING.
Rants Over the Exposure of the
Steam ~Oompany's Misdemeanor.
Ran Out OF Hard Coal and Couldn't
Get More, He Says.

Secretary st. John, OF the New York
Steam Company, which yesterday openly
defed the law and, in violation of the
order of the Board of Health. used soft
coal in their plant at l73 Washington
street, thereby besmirching The clear
blue X with dirty black smoke and
SCOT, as told exclusively in The Even
ing world,' was not In a very good hui
NOR when a reporter called at his office
to-day.
Secretary st. John took no pains to
hide the fact that he was not at all
pleased by the exposure Of the Steam
Company's open violation Of the law.
"Oh, you are. are you p said Mr.. st.
John, when tod by the reporter that he
was from The Evening World"
"well, you fellows who are doing SO
much writing about us can sell us hard
coal of the size we can use u you can
get 1t.
lyon can.go back and tell your editor
that we Will buy as much buckWheat
hard coal as he will furnish us. Lets see
why the papers should pursue us so vim
"iim tell you what I think of the -
.-.papers.,I believe they would ruin the
Reputation of an innocent orphan girl II
they could make n dollar out of doing so.
That's what l think of the papers, and
furthermore Ibelieve that they are paid
by the hard-coal combine. That's what
I think
: yesterday, because we could not get
bard coal that we could use and were
forced to use some soft coal, the smoke
of which probably offended some -
dude In one of the tail buildings, we have
the reporters on us like n pack OF wolves.
.."What would you have us do? Shut
down our big plant and inconvenience
our large number of p~atrcnS?" "
AFTER this verbal frJthinS at the mouth
Secretary st. John fell off from his high
horse and implored the reporter not To
quote his remarks, but to use a state
ment TO this effect:
- 'Ther are "A certain number of hard
. coal dealers here who can get together
aud not only fix absolutely the price OF
hard coal, but also the supply.
YESTERDAY we Couldn't get hard Goa
that we could use, 80 our supply OF Goa
IN the bunkers ran so low that we were
compelled TO use some Of the supply OF
coal we had on hand when the Board OF
Health ordered us 10 stop using soft Goa!
"I don't think voi vii find our plan
smoking this morning"
. Mr.. St. Johns last statement proved t,
be true. There was very much les.
smoke to-day than yesterday.
4 As soon as The Evening Worlds stor,
Of the violation. OF the law by the Steam
Company came to the notice of the Of
. fciais OF the Board OF Health to-day al
inspector of the Department was sen
to the %Comapny's plant to investigate
