BOSTON COAL FIRM
LOSES ITS LICENSE.
Secretary Of State Found That Unrea-
sonable Prices Were Charged for
Coal Since Present Diff
cuIties Started.

Boston, April 7.--Secretary Of State
William M. Olin has suspended the Ii,
canse of the Metropolitan Coal company
of this city, which has been charged
with fixing extortionate prices on coal
since the coal strike movement was in
augurated. Secretary Oiin does not
however, find that the prices are ex-
tortionate, and he does not revoke the
license on that complaint He con-
cludes, however, that there is fair
question as to whether the price Of coal
as recently fixed by the company is not
axorbitant and excessive, and lie sus-
pcnds the license under the statute which
permits him to take such action for "iust
and sufficient reason
Secretary Olin believes that the en-
tire question is one for the Judiciary
and his finding is in the nature of prob
able cause, so that the question may
be considered by justice Of the super
ior court, to which the coal company
now has the right to appeal.
Secretary Olin reports that he found
no evidence OF monopoly or of q gen
earl agreement among the dealers to
raise the price, but be is inclined to
the opinion that II the word "extor.
fionate' In the statutes means aunrea-
sonable and eyorbitant." the license
should be suspended The law does not
say whether the company can sell coal
pending the appeal or as to how soon
an appeal must be taken.
Secretary Olin said that be has al
ways been opposed to the statute on
which his decision was based. on the
ground that it is indefinite, and because
it submits to the secretary of state
questions which would be better passed
upon by the Judiciary.
When the announcement of the coal
strike was made the price CT coal in
Boston was generally advanced ST
ton. The Metropolitan Coal company.
the largest company doing business in
Greater Boston, was among the first
70 increase the rate At hearing bc.
fore the secretary yesterday the CON.
pany contended that it had increased the
prices to protect people, as it had only
about two weeks supply of coal at its
wharves.
