TO CONSIDER LOWERING
 PRICES OF BITUMINoUS CoAL

Cleveland. Oct. 25-Hundreds of bi- luminous coal operators from various pro- ducing fields throughout the country reached Cleveland tonight for a general meeting here tomorrow at which com munication from Attorney-General Pal mer, urging action toward lowering ot excessive prices for soft coal will be taken up.
 The meeting, which has been called by Colonel D. B. Wentz, of Philadelphia, president of the National Coal Associ- ation, is expected to be one of the most important in the history of the indus try.
 It is anticipated that upwards of a thousand of the 1000 soft producers of the country, who have been invited to attend, will participate in tomorrow's meeting, and it is assured that the at torney-generaTs communication will be the basis for a free and open discussion of the whole soft coal situation as it affects prices.
 Colonel Wentz called the general meet ing at the request of Attorney General Palmer so that the attorney generals proposal might be put before all of the representative soft coal operators.
 It was explained tonight that the Ma tionaI Coal Association, whose member ship embraces 2.500 operators with more than three-fourths of the aggregate sofl coa output. which will this year reacf nearly $50, 100000 tons, cannot. because of the nature of it's charter, take any ac ton relating to price fixing. Because ol this. Colonel Wentz decided to put thu matter before the general body of coa | operators but as individuals, represent l ing the various fields.
 l While it is not thought that the op i orators at tomorrow's meeting will at ] tempt to fix any maximum price fo | soft coal, it is understood that the ma | jority of those operators in Cleveland tonight might support a resolution ia voring flair and reasonable prices an' only a reasonable profit to the opera i tors.
 i 1t was also said that out of the meeting may come a recommendation | for what is known as fair practice committees" of operators in the differ ent soft coal mining fields where ex cessive prices have existed. Such com mittees have been organized, in co-opera tion with the attorney generals office, districts in West Virginia, Alabama, Ken lucky and other places recently. Thes committees are now working to elimir ate all abuses in the handling of cos
 after it leaves the mines, as well as see that mine prices, wherever eXorbitan hare brought down.
 [ Operators here tonight said that wit
 the recent production of soft coal, no
 sggregating nearly 12,oOO,C0O tons

 prevailed are rapidly coming down. I'll
