TO ATTACK COAL
TRUST SOON
Attorney General Preparing Pa
pers For Suit
ACTION AGAINST READING
The Sherman Antitrust Law to Be
Invoked to Break President Saer'a
Control of New Jersey Central.

IOnITOt VI NS" SSiSSy SSAh' 0'
The Wilson administration is about
to move to break up the Readings con-
troll of the Central Railroad of New
Jersey.
1t was acknowledged at the depart
ment of justice that papers are in
course OF preparation for suit under
the Sherman antitrust law designed
to accomplish that end.
This action by the federal govern
ment will revive one of the disturbing
features of the governments suit
against the so-called anthracite trust
which was disposed of when the Unit
ed States supreme court handed down
its recent important decision in that
case. 1t will be the elimination of
the step in series of efforts on the
part of the federal government to
smash the so-called hard coal trust.
When taken in connection with the
departments announcement in regard
to the New York, New Haven & Hard
ford railroad, this development has an
added significance. Attorney General
McReynolds has announced that
special counsel is TO be appointed by
him for the purpose of examining the
entire New Haven situation, with a
view of moving in the courts If he
finds that conditions warrant such
proceedings.
These two developments indicate for
the first time that the new administra-
tons attitude toward the railroads is
to be aggressive.
In the so-called anthracite trust de-
cision handed down last December the
supreme court held that the govern
ment had failed to establish the gen.
eral combination charged against the
coal-carrying roads for apportioning
the total tonnage to seaboard by agree
ment between them.
The court did find that the principal
defendants had combined for the pur-
pose of shutting out from the anthra-
cite field a projected Independent line,
and it also held that the so-called con-
tracts by which independent producers
agreed to deliver the output of their
mines to the railroads for 65 per cent
of the price at tidewater were in Vio-
lation of the Sherman law.
On the questions which had been OF
the greatest concern to the business
world the supreme court failed to pass.
These were charges involving alleged
violations of the commodities clause
through owenrship by the railroads OF
their coal companies and violations OF
the Sherman law through the control
by the Reading of the Central of Nsw
Jersey and by the Erie of the New
York. Susquehanna G Western.
The particular point of attack in
the Reading case will be the acquisi-
tion in 1901 by the Reading company,
owning the Philadelphia & Reading
railway, and a coal company by a
similar name, of the Central Railroad
of New Jersey, with its coal CON-
panies. Other suits against direct and
indirect alliances of coal carrying
railroads and coal mining companies
will follow.

Rarometers In Mines.

Look out for mine explosions when
the barometer begins to drop! This Is
the new word that has gone out among
coal mine managers all over the world.
The weather bureaus have heard it,

barometer tells the sea captain Of the
approach of storm well in advance
Of trouble, but the warning is not CIV
