Coal Witness Admits
Agreement on Price
U. S. Attorneys Show Cen
uineness of Letter from Oper-
ator Fixing" Rates

What the United States Attorneys
regard as the strongest point the gov.
eminent has scored in the trial OF
coal operators and companies in the
Federal Building was made yesterday,
when David W. Allen, Of the William
c. Atwater Company, of West Virginia,
acknowledged on the witness stand as
genuine a letter in which coal prices
were quoted as having ben agreed upon
by ~he operators" The letter was
sent by the president of the Atwater
company 70 the Ennis Coal Company,
one of the defendants.
Equal stress was laid by counsel for
the defence upon letter showing that
the Berwind- White Coal Company,
which has no connections with the de-
PENDANTS. quoted price OF $3.50 per
ton three weeks before the latter, &C
cording to the government, fixed the
price at only SO.
George W. Woodruff, secretary Of the
Pocahontas Fuel Company. told Of q

u. S. Brings Suit to Dissolve
Boston S Fish Combination .

cable tickets emitting them 20 trade
on terms fixed by the defendants"
The fishing grounds off the coast OF
New England supply practically all the
ground fish brought into the United
States, including cod. hake, pollock and
paddock, and at certain seasons thew
furnish also the entire available sup
ply Of migratory fish, of which mack
cral is an example.
100,00O,000 Pounds Year
Fish taken from these fishing grounds
is almost always landed at ports OF
New England. Approximately 100000
600 pounds Of fresh fish is received at
Boston annually by water, and about
5O.0O0O00 pounds is brought here by
rail Immediately on being landed at
other New England ports. More than
three-quarters Of the total amount IS
reshipped TO other states for sale.
The Bay State Fishing Company is
declared to be the largest single pro-
Queer in the fresh FISH industry, oper-
ating. with a single exception, all the
beam trawlers now engaged in the bust
ness in these waters and producing ap-
proximatelv half the total quantity OF
FISH marketed on the exchange. It is
alleged that this company has attempt
ed to buy out all the wholesalers, and
has. in fact, bought out nine of them,
and now causes them, while still osten-
sibly independent to be operated for
its benefit.
Competition among the wholesalers
10 control the industry" says the bill,
"has been reduced TO a point where II
ceases to be of any practical value TO
consumers and others outside Of the
defendants combination.
"Sales on the exchange purport 10 be
in the form Of auctions, but in fact
arc not so conducted. The wholesalers,
for the purpose Of limiting competition
among buyers, kabitually combine with
one another at these sales so that the
purchasers of given lot OF fish later
divide the lot at its purchasing price
with other wholesalers, a practice
known as splitting trips"
1t is alleged that the exchange con-
tinues to impose an assessment OF so
much a pound upon fish sold, and in
this way over 100000 has been col
lec;ed by the wholesalers and CORE
spending amount added 20 the price
Of fish.
The government asks that the Bos-
ton Fish Pier Company, the Bay State
Fishing Company and the New Eng
land Fish Exchange be adjudged IN
lawful combinations and that they be
dissolved. and that receivers be ap-
ro:nted: also that the defendants who
are shareholders Of the New England
Fish Exchange be enjoined from COM
biaing for the illegal purposes com
planned Of.

si5le. in order 70 expedite conference
consideration, is the plan OF Repre-
sentative Lever, in charge Of the meas
ure. He told the House to-day that
minor changes could be made at lei
sure. while il now is Of the utmost I'M
portance that the big control machin-
ery be started. House Republicans
are rallying generally to support OF
the bill.
During the debate in the Senate SEN
stor Sherman rep, Illinois,. charged
thar the bill is aimed especially at
farmers. City jewellers and labor
unions, he declared, are its principal
advocates.
This Senate and House will pass
ANYTHING that any labor union indorses
and endeavors to thrust upon them,
right or wrong" he shouted. "Or-
gained labor controls legislation in
this Administration and the last. II
dictates TO Senators, while the farmers
are unorganized."
Senator Sherman said he would vote
for legislation TO prohibit the manu-
facture of foodstuffs into intoxicating
beverages. but would vote against the
bill unless its blanket" powers are
eliminated.
Sherman Assails Wilson
With homely metaphor and caustic
tongue, the Senator assailed the Ad-
ninistration. Referring 70 the bilIs
provision TO Coordinate activities Of
production, Senator Sherman said;
That's what is the matter with the
man with St. Vitus dance; he cant.
That's what is the matter with TINS
Administration. 1t has slumbered for
four or five years. II was asleep when
nv neighbors were slaughtered IN
Mexico, when Belgium's women were
driven into exile or worse, when
treaties were held TO be scraps OF
paper. when our men and women by
hundreds were sent TO the bottom OF
the seas, when our neutrality was
shamelessly violated by our present
Allies-still the slumber proceeded.
with international outrages unrebuked
and unchecked.

finite. When it wakes up it is worse
scared and doesn't have equine sense.
We've now passed from apathy TO hys-
terra, from individual liberty TO food
dictatorship"
Labor Released, He Says
In concluding his speech, Senator
Sherman said:
81 want 70 see how many men are
conscripted into the service that carry
a union card. There will be no union
labor sent to Europe that does not want
TO CO.
He said that. according to reports,
London approves Of the bill and also
sanctions the appointment Of Mr..
Hoover as food Dictator"
81 anticipate the bill will be more
popular in London than IL will be IN
the United States at the November
election in 1918, unless some Of these
provisions are changed" he declared.
Because many Senators still desired
TO speak, but were not ready, the Sen
ate adjourned until tomorrow, after
Senator Sherman concluded.
A picture Of England reduced to sub
mission by starvation, Germany taking
over the British fleet as her nrst peace
demand. the United States feet swept
from the seas in week by the COM
bined navy and this country defending
invaders from Canada and the sea was
drawn by Representative Fess. Of Ohio,
in supporting the bill. He insisted that
feeding England was the greatest prob
lem confronting this country and that
it could only be accomplished by de-
feating the submarine and keeping a
ship lane open between the United
States and England.
1--WE are in a long war" he said.
Don't make the mistake Of thinking
this war is going TO be summer ex-
cursion. Germany Is not in a state OF
revolution, nor is she on the verge Of
starvation. She has taken over rich
fields with 50,O00,000 more population
and has 100000 prisoners working in
the factories, mines and fields TO aid in
production"
