DR.. Lee De Forest, Of the De Forest

telephone was placed in the horn Of
the gramophone. Connected with the
microphone was an incandescent lamp,
six inches in diameter. which sent the

within the radius Of his transmitter
learn that he is sending out news every
evening he will have at least 10000

COAL CONSPIRACY
SEARCH ON HERE
U. S. Investigators Ex-
anime Dealers Books
Call Price Raise Local

Special Investigators of the Depart
ment of Justice visited the offices Oh
several Of the big coal companies IN
this city yesterday and demanded 10
see the books. They announced that
they had been sent out to inquire into
the coal situation and were prepared
to examine the company's accounts
until they had ascertained the facts
needed BY the Federal prosecutor re-
garding the shortage Of the coal supply
and the abnormslly high prices charged
for the coal on hand in this city.
In one instance, it is said, their visit
was regarded as an intrusion, but gen.
orally they received courteous treat
ment.
This is the first actual move of the
Federal inquiry into the coal situation
The work will require several weeks
but from day to day they will furnish
reports of their findings to II. Snowden
Msrshall, United States Attorney foi
the Southern District of New Hrk.
Cross Views in Inquiries
Federal and county prosecutors ex'
press opposite views of the situation
and according to men Interested IN the
condition nothing conclusive VIII be
established for at least three or iouf
DAYS to show whether a conspiracy
existed to increase the price.
Mr.. Marshall said yesterday that the
investigation made thus far Indicated
that there was no interstate conspiracy
involved.
District Attorney Swami said: "'If
there is a conspiracy TO raise the price
of coal. our information at this time
tends TO indicate that il is national.
am informed that Chicago is suffering
from high prices, the same as Ne"
York, and that prices have been IN
creased in other cities. Despite these
facts, the railroads maintain that they
are making heavy shipments westward
| shall do all in my power to ascertain
whether the price of coal has been
boosted because of local conspiracy.
Reports of the investigators of the
Department of Justice to Mr.. Marshall
indicated that the high prices main
tanned in the greater city were due 70
local causes.
Normal Prices In Jersey
an Trenton and Newark and other
places in New Jersey the price of coal
is normal" said representative OF the
United States Attorneys office. 1T is
no doubt due to railroad congestion
and car shortage. The normal supply
of coal has failed to reach this city,
and perhaps local dealers have taken
advantage of this shortage and the ex.
cessive demand to boost the price OF
the stock on hand. 1t may be difficult
to prove that there is or was any con-
spiracy.'
Commissioner Woods instructed po-
lice captains throughout the city to
make inquiries in their respective pre-
cincts and ascertain from every whole
sale and retail dealer the amount of
coal on hand, the amount contracted
for in the summer, the purchase price
and the prices they are and have been
charging consumers. Also, the police
have been instructed to get compare
tive figures of the supply and prices
maintained throughout 1915.
These facts will be tabulated and
given to District Attorney Swami.

UNION DESERTS3
In SUBWAY PLOT
Silent Ones Have Counsel:
Others Own Lawyers
All Plead Not Guilty

Deserted by the union they had tried
TO aid, James J. Merna, Michael J. Her
lihy and Thomas J. Mcclure, without
counsel, began their legal fight yester-
day that may terminate in twenty-five
years imprisonment. Merna, named as
the drains" in the wholesale plot TO
destroy subway stations, expects to act
as attorney for himself, Herlihy and
Mcguire.
George Pollock, Lawrence Kulle and
Benjamin S. Hamilton. who made no
confessions, had as their counsel Louis
Fridiger, attorney TO the Garments
union, when they appeared with their
three fellow prisoners in Washington
Heights court for a hearing before
Magistrate Breen.
The plight in which Merna, Herlihy
and Mcclure found themselves was not
without its touch Of sadness. After the
six men, charged with dynamiting the
10th Street station, had ranged them
selves in a sem-circle before Magis-
trate Breen, Assistant District Attor-
ney Abraham Meyer CURLY asked what
attorney was to appear for the defend
ants.
Lucky Ones Have Counsel
az represent only Pollock, Kulle and
Hamilton" announced Fridiger, the
Amaleamated Associations attorney.
And the other three?" Magistrate
Breen inquired. Merna timidly stepped
forward. >,
1--WE have no counsel. your honor
he said. I'VE will not employ one; l
will represent the three of us. we
plead not guilty.
A few moments later, when the CUES
, ton of an adjournment Of the hear
ing was being discussed. Merna cut IN:
1--WE want no adjournment. We are
ready for the case TO proceed at once"
Despite the fight waged by Fridiger,
Magistrate Breen finally acceded TO AS
sistant District Attorney Meyers re-
quest that the examination be ad,
iourned until tomorrow afternoon at z
o'clock. By that time. it is predicted
by the District Attorneys Office, all six
will have been indicted by the grand
jury.
Fridiger opposed the delay on the
ground that his clients had already
been in Jail for three days, that their
bond was prohibitive and that they
were entitled TO know how much OF
case existed against them.
Fridiger Alleges Violation
az charge that the law has been
violated in the treatment these men
have received" Fridiger shouted to the
court. "They were arrested on Friday,
are still being held on short affidavit
and have not yet been arraigned. For
fourteen hours they were badgered and
bullvragged at Police Headquarters.
rot allowed a moments rest At the
end of three days there is still no com
nlaint against them. The joker in the
whole thing is that the District Attor-
ney wants to rob these men Of FAR
examination, so his facts can be laid
before the grand jury in secret be-
fore the prisoners have had their day
in court"
There was a persistent rumor about
the courtroom yesterday afternoon
that the Amalgamated would to-day
