"COAL TRUST is ATTACKED

Philadelphia Attorney General Nc

gun here Wednesday with the filing of
a civil suit for the dissolution of the
Reading company's control of coal
mining and coal carrying railroads
the most potential combination in the
anthracite fields. The Reading COM
pany, with its subsidiary and allied
corporations, including the Central
railroad of New Jersey and certain Of
their officers and directors, are
charged by the Federal government
with violating both the Sherman anti
trust law and the commodities clause
of the interstate commerce act, in an
attempt to monopolize the production
and transportation of anthracite.
This combination, controlling at the
present time So per cent of the entire
unmined deposits of anthracite and
marketing about 80 per cent of the
annual supply, will own or control in
time, if not dissolved, the attorney
general warns, 'every ton of CONNER

Amanda johnson, of this city, not
only has enjoyed freedom for go years,
but Saturday, on her 8Oth birthday,
became a duly qualified voter with all
of the rights of citizenship. The
adoption of women's suffrage in Ore

place she was born, was married when
Mrs. johnson was seven years old, and

BIG OIL FIRE RACES FIERCELY
Boiling Water in Tank Throws
Blaze Hundreds Of Feet.

Los Angeles-The Associated Oil
Companies 81, 1000 barrel tank, fired
by lightning at Coalinga, was burned
Sunday. The water in the bottom of
the tank boiled, throwing the blazing
oil hundreds of feet. Half Of the
width Of the tank collapsed, and oil
thrown against the derricks Of two ad-
joining wells burned them to the
ground. The blazing oil surrounded
another St, OOO-barrel tank, but steam
turned into the top Of the tank saved
it from destruction. Fire among the
surrounding tanks was put out with
hand extinguishers and earth.
E. T. Morris, general manager Of
the Pipe Line company, estimates the
damage as follows: Oil, $25, 900;
tank, SIS, 900; derricks, $1,000.
