GRUDD DISM|SSES F' OTHERDEFENDANTS'
 IN THE COAL SUITS

New York, July 9.--Indictments agains three more coal companies, defendants i the governments suit alleging con spiracy in restraint of trade agains more than 100 companies were dismissed today by Federal Judge Grubb. The com. panies, the Ashland Coal and Coke com, pany, the Pemberton Coal and Coke com pany and the Dry Fork Colliery com pany are concerns with which W. T Williams, dismissed last week, is af- filiated.
 At the same time Judge Grubb an- nounced that the indictments agains six other companies, provisonaily dismissed, Friday, had been reinstated. The com panies are the Crystal Coal and Coke company, the Iroquois Coal Mining com pany, Flat Top Coal Mining company, Mcdowell Coal and Coke company. Thomas Coal company and Mill Creek Coal and Coke company. Todays action leaves approximately half the accused concerns under indictment,
 Arguments were started today and are expected to be finished tomorrow. It Is probable the case will go to the jury late Wednesday.
 The defendant companies, contrary to the governments charge of price fixing and restraint of trade, actually received less than circular prices for most of their project during the period covered by the indictments, declared Henry A. Wise in his argument for the defense.
 These men sold coal for s and less, ,' he said, when only few days ago one of the governments highest officials de- clared price of $3.10 to be fair and rea- sonable."
 In their most productive year, 1916, MT. Wise said the defendants produced less than 2o.OoO.OOO tons of coal, while the dis trict produced 25o,00oo00 tons and th2 country 510,00o,0oo tons. It was ridiculou he argued, to assume that they could, tiel up the trade with the comparatively small amount of coal under their con troll M

At the Lyric .

The Lyric bill presented last night was featured by the bigness of the en- tire programme. The big acts, presented by an unusually large number of actors, retained the interest of the large Mon- day night audience who attended the popular theatre. The programme was diversified and we'll balanced.
 The "Suffragette Revue" proved to be the biggest act of the big perform ance, and is given up to be the largest miniature musical comedy presented on local stage recently. The act is d musical satire, displaying it's virtue in giving new and more pleasing aspect to the suffragette stage act The satire IS well expressed and is both pleasing and humorous. The star of the act was Miss Elane Arndt, playing the lead in the role of Josephine. The audience ap- plauded loudly the lively singing and acting of the chorus, composed of good looking and sprighty girls.
 Bobby Bernard and Henry Weiner were the comedians of the evening and their act added life to the performance The entertaining duo, who were Mark and Maybelle, comprised an entire show themselves with their songs, dances and jokes. Mark displayed unusual limber- ness in his dancing and his voice har- monized well with that of Maybelle.
 The Merambo music was pleasingly rendered by Countess Verona. who we'll deserved the hearty applause the audi ence gave her act. Hearst-Pathe pie lures showed interesting happenings from various parts of the globe and were as good as usual.
