Suit Launched in Trenton Against
Corporation Ostensibly Handling

Trenton, n. j., Feb. 1.-THE feder-
al government has instituted suit in
the courts here against the hard coal
trust" the action being one of the
most sweeping that has ever been at
tempted.
Arrangements and contracts be-
tween defendant corporations, which
have practically common stockholders.
are declared to be simply devices to
avoid the prohibitions of the interstate
commerce act and are said to have re-
suited in giving the Lackawanna
Coal company monopoly Of the 81
100000 to 100000 tons of coal an
the Lackawanna railroad. The Unit
ed States district court is asked to en-
join the railroad from transporting
coal mined or bought by it and from
delivering such coal to the coal COM
pany under existing agreements which
the court is petitioned to adjudge as
constituting combination in restraint
Of trade.
Nine Railroads Involved.
Nine anthracite carrying railroads
and the great coal companies united
or affiliated with them. the govern
ment declares. have long engrossed
the output Of the collierics. Each road
directly or through one or more coal
companies has contrived to gain con-
troll over the output of most Of the
mines served by it and the sale of the
same. This is especially true of coal
moving To New York harbor and as q
consequence +. o. b. prices Of anthra-
cite at the various terminals there are
made and controlled by the defendant
railroad or other railroad companies
and their affiliated coal companies.
These prices or their averages are re-
ported monthly by the sellers to a
bureau of statistics sustained by them
Jointly, and the result is then sent out
to all of them" Practically all the
output of 70,000,000 tons of anthracite
produced in the great fields of Penn
sylvania is carried away. the govern
ment says, by the following nine rail-
roads:

Valley. Lackawanha, Erie, Susquehan.

WILSON'S Bills
PASS THE SENATE
His Seven Antitrust Meas
ures Go Through-Only
Three Seriously Opposed

Trenton. N. j.. Feb. 14.-Governor
Wilson's seven antitrust bills passed
the senate today. all of the bills re-
ceiving at least II votes. those OF the
12 democrats and of two republicans,
Senators Nichols of Cumberland and
White Of Burlington.
Only three of the bills were Seri-
ously opposed, the others going
through practically unanimously. The
three bills opposed were the main bill
which defines trusts, prohibits. acts
calculated to create monopoly and
makes a violation of the provisions of
the bill of misdemeanor, the bill to
prohibit the formation of holding
companies and prohibiting existing
corporations except in certain Stipu-
lated instances, and the bill prohibits
ing merged companies from acquiring
stock of other corporations.
Expected to Pass House.
No serious opposition to the bills in
the house is anticipated and they are
expected to pass that body next week.
The debate in the senate today on
the bills lasted from the opening of
the session until 4 o'clock in the att
ernoon, to which hour the senate sat
continuously without any noon recess
The debate was largely one of con-
tention upon the part OF the demo-
Gratis that the bills were necessary in
order to effectively prevent monopoly
and curb the big trusts that hold
New Jersey charters. while tho repub-
licans claimed the bills were too dras-
tic, that they would not accomplish
their purpose SO far as the big cor
porations were concerned, and those
who would really suffer were the small
traders of the state.

This makes an increase of about ITS

Lakea. This amounts to $3.50 cars in
Il month. Allowing 1000 bushels Of
grain to a cur, this means the receipt
Of 6.26O.000 bushels Of grain over and

ton Comes to Close this Afternoon
Commercial Club Entertains,

Hardware jobbers who have main
tained exhibits in the North Dakota
hardware exposition In this city are
Immensely Well pleased with the re.
suits attained. declaring that they
have never seen the time when the
Flickertail dealers have been 30 FREQ
with their orders. and in comparing
their business at this convention with
conditions prevailing at conventions in
previous years. they declare that the
total amount Of orders Is far in ex.
cess OF the general rule.
A concrete illustration Of the splen-
did business this year as against that
OF last year Is found in the experience
OF one company which In 1919 took
four orders during the convention, and
which had. up to noon today, taken
|ninety-seven orders.
Say Outlook Is Good.
The hardware merchants declare
that the general outlook for a sue
cessful business year has never been
better. Every prospect points to an
extensive trade, and the merchants
state that the farmers are equally
Jubilant at the general conditions now
prevailing. and at the possibilitie that
the coming season seems to offer.
When the convention comes to a
close this afternoon one Of the most
important gatherings that has been
held In the state this year will be end
ed. The attendance Of dealers at this
convention has been greater than at
any previous gathering, and every fea-
ture of the three-day event has been
thoroughly satisfactory to all.
Grand Forks Citizens Join.
Grand Forks citizens Joined in good
" numbers with the hardware dealers
last evening In looking over the dis
plays at the convention. They found
many things to interest them, the mu-
sical program adding to the pleasure
of the evening.
| The hardware exposition has been
tremendously successful and its
growth this year as against last year
is very great. More companies have
made displays, and the North Dakota
event is coming to be regarded as one
of the most important in the United
States. That. at least, is the view held
positions. travelling to all parts Of the
country with exhibits.
Ship Displays to st. Paul.
Practically all of the displays that
have been maintained here this week
will be shipped direct to St. Paul.

Efforts Are for Protection.

Washington. Feb. 14.-For the pres
ent the efforts of the administration
are being concentrated upon the pro-
lection of foreign life and property
in the Mexican capital without actual
forcible intervention. which the presi-
dent is determined to avoid until the
last extremity. Ambassador Wilson
is acting under instructions of that
character and it was in pursuance of
tina plan that he was given a credit
of $4,000 to defray the expense of
removing. sheltering and feeding help
less Americans and presumably other
distressed foreigners. Such action
unofficial sources to the effect that
many Americans who would willingly
quit the city. were prevented from
doing so by lack of funds.
Admiral Fletcher who is in COM
mand of the naval force now bound
who will appear at Tampico within
the next twenty-four hours, on his
flagship Virginia. will act under SIM
liar instructions to those which gov
ern Ambassador Wilson. These, while
general in scope and not framed for
this particular occasion. are regarded
as sufficient by Acting Secretary Win
throp as they are to the effect that
>the American naval officers are to pro-
tect American interess. This is gen.
orally understood by naval officers to
warrant the commander of a ship in
landing his marines OF bluejackets at
a port to succor Americans in distress
there. but not to authorize the dis
pach of such force into the interior
of the country without instructions.
No Criticism Offered.
Diplomatic day brought an unusual
ly large number Of foreign ambassa-
dors and ministers to the state depart
ment to gather from Secretary Knox
news Of the conditions in Mexico city.
In no case was there the slightest
evidence Of disposition to criticise
the administration for failing to adopt
an aggressive attitude toward Mexico.
Secretary Knox's view Is that while
somc American lives may be lost
through the wild and reckless firing
OF the battling forces now in the city
Of Mexico. 1t is certain that a great
many more lives would he lost az an

principally haxseed

principally f1aXseed. More flaxseed
has been sent than any other grain for
the reason that the Western Canadian
railroads and grain handlers at Fort
William and Port Arthur have not
been encouraging the movement of
flaNseed to the elevators at Fort Will
liam and Port Arthur. They do not
wish TO receive tiaXseed. because there
is very little all-rail movement of flax
seed out OF those elevators for the east
and the tlaxseed accumulated at those
points and gets in the way of wheat,
oats and harley. Of which there is a
good .tll-rail movement to the east,
from Fort William and Port Arthur.
For that reason more flaNsced is being
received from Western Canada under
bond at Duluth and superior than any
other grain.

Mexico City. Feb. l4.-FYve
days of fighting in the streets of
the capital, in the opinion of close
observers, has done more to
change the sentiment Of Mcxicans
I'm regard to intervention than
the whole two years revolution.
Months ago a quiet feeling began
TO develop among the better class
OF Mexicans in favor of outside
assistance, and the events of the
last few days Is said to have
strengthened 1t considerably.
Mexican women in q meeting
at Juarez made no secret of their
desire for intervention, saying:
I'VE are praying for the end Of
our country's troubles, even

:. Conditions here are steadily
growing worse. All business, both
