House yesterday that maximum

| In reply to his SPECIFIC question.
Attorney General Palmer stated the
! fixing OF maximum prices by the
Fuel Administrator would include
| anthracite as, well as bituminous
coal.
The administration was moved to
the decision to restore maximum.
prices OF both Anthracite and BIZ
luminous coal by the representa-
tions of the miners that IL would be
! illogical and unjust for the govern
ment to take the position that the
war was over and wartime legisla-
ton did not apply to prices de-
manded by the operators but did
apply and would be enforced
tagainst any attempt of the miners
to compel an increase of their
wages.
1t has been charged by the miners
that the operators were forcing the
strike in order to make a big clean
up by unloading at advanced prices
the large stock Of coal accumulated d
during the war.
Government action in restoring
the maximum prices established
during the war for bituminous anu
anthracite coal will effectually pre-
vent profiteerinG.
The administration also hopes
thta this action will serve to con-
vince miners that it is the purpose
Of the administration to hold the
scale even as between the operators
and the miners. Whatever action
the administration should be forced
to take will be taken solely in the
interest of the general public.
As anthracite coal sold for $1125
in March under the regulations OF
the Fuel Administration and was
selling for sl1.95>on October / deal

great amount 'by the re-establish-
ment of the wartime maximum
price.

had received no communication from

it was an Lninstified view OF the

stion was decided on at a meeting
IN the Hotel Harrington under the
sauspiceS of the Merchants and Manu-
rfactirers' Association.
William A. Carlin, chief engineer
OF the Hotel Harrington, explained
the scheme. which will require no

siam A. Carlfn.
. Cost Less Than $4,000.
: Carlin claimed that the high pres
ssure water mains in the downtown
section are connected with the
s-gravity mains by valves which
.are kept closed. By opening certain
~of these valves the required pres
esure will be distributed through
the low-pressure mains, he said.
: Carlin asserted that the increased
-pressure would not inJure existing
plumbing connections. He estimated
that the cost OF the project would be
Jess than $4,000 Additional pumping
would be required to keep up the
spressure, It was pointed out.
Manager Downs. of the Washington
Hotel, claimed that the low pressure
jim his establishment had caused in
convenience to patrons using shower
baths.

Sem reaches only to the lower floors,

came the collapse of the German military
scheme; and, true to form, the young
prince deserted the failing cause and
skeedadded into the woods of Holland.
There in the seclusion of Holland he
has remained ever since, thinking, think
ing how he could get his neck out of the
moose, As the signing Of the treaty Of
peace came nearer he realized that to
stay in Holland would mean an ultimate
demand on the part of the allies for Hol
land to surrender him, as well as his
wood chopping parent; and the ex-scion
Of German royalty well knew that pub
lie opinion of the world would insist that
Holland surrender the refugees to trial
in world tribunal. Therefore, thinking
first, foremost and continually of his own
precious head, this young Mr.. Hohen
zollern concluded that his chances would
be better Inside of Germany, where the
anti-ally sentiment might be expected
to stand as shield between himself and
justice albeit the anti-royalty spirit
might be fairly powerful. So he quietly
slipped over the Dutch border into Ger
many, and there, having abandoned his
father, he is going to take his chances at
lodging German displeasure in the hope
Of eluding the grasp of the allies Like
the arrant coward that he is, the man
who expected TO rule Germany by divine
right is skulking about the backwards Of
his native land, and, like a sycophant,
pleading with his new masters not to
turn him over TO the allies. He is a
miserable specimen indeed.

A MISERABLE SPECIMEN INDEED

A MISERABLE SPECIMEN INDEED.
The penchant OF Frederick William
Hohenzollern, former crown prince of
Germany, for self.preseryation, reveals
itself in his fight from Holland, where
he has been in semi-restraint since early
in November of 1918. Ever since this
young man came into the limelight he
has displayed qualities which indicated
that his first, foremost and continual
thought was for himself and his own
ACKNOWLEDGMENT. He was a swashbuck-
Ter of high degree as long as things We're
going well and as long as he was given
the servile support of his minions. He
strutted about in his toggery of military
pomp and pageantry with a feeling Of
his own supreme Importance; and he
even clashed with his bedecked and be-
deviled father when their purposes
crossed. The young upstart wanted to
run the war as long as he had men
enough to sacrifice; he would have had
succession of Yerduns one after an.
other had he been permitted to send vast
armies to the sacrifice while he himself
hung back on the outskirts and watched
the blood flow. He was obsessed with
the idea of his own proves in war, as
well as with his winning ways with the
women. So the young man waded
through blood to the goal which seemed
to him like a shining light; but present
ly the flow Of blood began to slacken
because the source began to fail-the
Germans were not only being decimated
but they objected to being stuck up just
TO make 6 crown prince holiday. Then
