CAUSES OF HIGH PRICE
 OF BITMINoUS COAL
Shortage of Cars and Rush of Peo-
 pie to Store Coal.

Washington, April 26.-Representa- tives of public utilities appearing here today before the federal trade com mission, charged present high prices of bituminous coal to the shortage of cars and diverting of coal-carrying g cars to other freight.
 Representatives of six railroads. the Central of New Jersey. Norfolk and Western, Western Maryland, South ern, Reading and Wheeling and Lake Erie. repeated in a large measure the reasons advanced by representatives of other railroads for the present. high prices. The rush by the public to store coal was described by one as 'hys- teria-" Shortage of labor at the mines was another reason advanced for the increase in prices which the railroads agreed is about double the old con- tracts.
 Increased freight rates was the remedy suggested by the railroads for the present conditions confronting them through double coal bills. Rep resentatives of the industrial plants and general consumers will appear be- fore the commission tomorrow.
