PRICE OF COAL LANDS
Secretary Ballinser's Action Raises
Cost From 500 To More Than
$500 Per Acre.

WASHINGTON. May 25.-A new
plan for the disposal of the coal lands
on the public domain Of the United
States that will net more than twice
the former returns 10 the government
WAS announced by Secretary Ballinger,
OF the department OF the interior, to-
day. The prices OF coal lands in the
United States. except Alaska, which
is governed by e different law. have
been increased all along the line.
Secretary Ballinger has had the coal
lands on the public domain classified
with reference to both the quality
and quantity OF coal underlying the
soil. They win be sold on this basis,
with the prevailing royalties per ton
that are usually paid private owners
as fundamental price.
The present ruling will increase the
price OF the most valuable coal lands
from 800 per acre. under the Gar
field plan, TO more than $500 per acre.
under the Ballinger plan.
Before Garfield took office. all coal
lands were sold at the minimum pro-
,ided by law. not lower than $40, and
not higher than $40 per acre. Coal
lands worth millions OF dollars were
disposed OF under this plan.
