SUES LEHIGH VALLEY ROAD.
Federal Action Brought Under Sher'
man Antitrust Law.

NEW YORK. March 19-The Lehigh
Valley Railway Company was sued here
yesterday by Attorney General Mickey
nolds under the Sherman antitrust law,
as being the dominant factor in a COM
bination alleged to control the output Of
anthracite from Pennsylvania fields it
touches.
In statement issued last night Edgar
ii. Boles general solicitor of the Lehigh
Nallew Railroad Company. denies that
the sales company. by whose existence
and activity the acts alleged by the gov
eminent are said to have been made
possible. is in any way affiliated with or
controlled by the railroad" though it is
conceded as possible that the railroad
and the sales company may have stock
holders in common.
Dealing with the railroad ownership
of the Lehigh Valley Coal Company and
subsidiaries, Mr. Boles says that matter
had been investigated by the government
for more than generation. and that If
there had been violations of law the
government should have identified them
by this time, and made them clear to the
courts.
