has administered a ebuke for the
singing of indicate songs in places

railroad today made answer to the suit
filed by the federal government to
break up the coal monopoly. The an
swer of the company, of which George
F.. Baer is president. Is a general de-

The answer says the advance in coal
in 1900 was brought on by the intimi-

of the government to send troops to
enforce the law and protect the coal
companies, az we'll as by the Emporium
tiles of the late Marcus A. Hanna, who
1t is alleged was anxious to break the
