COAL BARONS TO
FIX LOWER PRICES
PROMISE SECRETARY
WILSON TO TREAT GOVERN
MENT AND PUBLIC BETTER.
Immediate Cot Ranging From One to
Five Dollars on 6ituninous Prod
uct Agreed Upon at Confer
ence Held at Capital.

Washington. Reductions in the
price of bitumlnous coal ut all mines
east Of the Mississippi river, ranging
from 81 10 50 ton to the public, with
n further cut OF so cents for the gov
eminent, were agreed upon Thursday
at conferences between the operators
and government officials. The new
prices become effective at once.
Four hundred operators who gath
cred here al call from Secretary Lane
and pledged themselves TO furnish their
product at reasonable price were rep
resented In the final conference by
committees from ench field. Earlier in
the day thes had agreed to place the
price fixing In the hands OF the GOV
ernment, through the defense coun-
ellis coal production committee, Secre-
tary Lane and Commissioner Fort OF
the federal trade commission, thus
avoiding the possibility OF violating the
antitrust laws.
Director Smith of the geological sur
vey estimated that the reduced prices
would mean that the operators would
get S1s0OO0.000 less annually for their
output and that the saving TO the gov
eminent and the coal-consumlng public
would be even greater.
Only the districts west of Illinois
Iowa, Wyoming, Colorado. oklahoma,
and the southwest--whlch We're not
represented. remain yet TO be account
ed for. and there Is no doubt In the
minds OF officials that these districts
