OPERATORS TO CURB
SOFT COAL G0UGERS
Hope to End Speculation by
Safeguarding Sales at
the Mines.

Special Despatch TO THE New YoRK HERALD
CLEVELAND, Oct &C. - One thousand
bitumnous coal mine operators. repre-
production of the United States, met
here to-day and after an all day discus
sion of high coal prices voted to CO.
operate with the Government in driving
prices back to a normal basis.
In resolution they declared that
real shortage, caused mainly by made
quate car supply. had been funda-
mental cause of high prices, as 1t had
led to much speculation in coal.
They said the time had come for the
coal operators to step in and assist the
Department of Justice in enforcing dis
cipline in the coal market by establish
ing in each soft coal district commit
tee of operators to demand fair prices
This action, coal operators declared
tonight. is aimed primarily at specuia-
tors, whose manipulations with coal
after it has left the mines, frequently
while it has been on the road. have had
much to do with the unusually high
prices on coal delivered in the home
cellar.
II is aimed also, they said, at the
operator who is tempted to take advan-
tage Of market conditions by selling to
the highest bidder among the spectators
instead OF at fair contract prices II
follows lines of action already taken IN
West Virginia and Illinois.
T. II. Maher OF the Maher Galleries
Company. who spoke for members of the
Pittsburg Vein Operators Association.
said tonight:
ut should mean retail coal at not
more than $3.50 or 50 ton in the very
near future. The prices which have been
prevailing have been beyond all reason
and must come down Immediately
Il don't believe there's been much

this district, because we've been selling

"The effect OF the action taken to-
day viii be almost immediate The
minute speculation is stopped the prices
In retail markets will fall and the more
readily will coal move from producer TO
ultimate consumer without unnecessary
changing of hands"

gestion that the time had come for the

or by operators
