TAKE COAL CENSUS
IN NEW YORK CITY
officials May Regulate Future Supply
No Interstate Conspiracy to
Raise Prices.

NEW YORK. Nov. "A census Of
the coal supply in this city to de
termine whether Spectators are taking
advantage of the public in certain see
tiors was begun by the police ycster-
day. Its purpose, it was said, was to
learn whether n coal shortage exists
in some sections and surplus in
others. and how the supply may be
regulated to relieve suffering in cold
weather.
United States Attorney Marshall,
District Attorney Swami and agents Of
the department of Justice are investi
eating the situation to learn if the
present famine prices are caused by
natural conditions or by an illegal
agreement of dealers.
The police also expect from their
census TO be able to testify as experts
should Investigations TO be started this
week reveal conspiracy to raise the
price of coal, federal officials asserted
last night that the facts thus far
gathered by the government do not in
dieatc any interstate conspiracy. Dis
trict AttorneF Swami said, however.
that what his department learned
tends TO show that the conspiracy to
raise the price of coal-if there is such
a conspiracy-is national in its extent
