Coal Operators Deny
Plan to Couge Public
Tell Union Miners to Speed Up
Production and Do
LESS Talkino''

Denial Of the charges made by lead
crs of the United Mine Workers of
America that operators Of the btu
mnous fields are planning to take adj
vantage Of the recent 27 per cent wage
increase granted the miners to raise
the prices OF coal IN a dsproportionatc
degree was made yesterday by Thomas
I. Brewster, chairman Of the scale COM
mittee of the bituminous coal operators.
Mr.. Brewster attributed the increased
prices OF coal to the effects of the re-
cent strike, which. he said caused a
serious dimlnution in the coal supply.
Mr.. Brewster denied emphatically
charges Of profiteering against the op-
orators. As a remedy for the present
situation ne demanded from the miners
advanced coal production and less
talk"
Mr.. Brewster's statement follows:
"lnsinuations that the coal operators
are going TO gouge the public because
Of the recent q per cent advance in
wages, as put out by the United Mine
Workers spokcsmen in the guse OF
protest in the public interest, are sheer
nonsense.
During the coal miners entirely un-
warranted and unlawful cessation from
work all stocks Of coal were depleted
and shortage now exists throughou,
the connfry. The replcnishing Of stock,
has been retarded BY serious ca,
shortage. Consequently, large consum-
ers OF soft coal are competing for the
available supply, which has resulted in
the offer Of higher prices than the op
orators are willing TO accept.

Anarchy Charges Planned
Attorneys for the Expelled
Men Will Meet To-day
to Discuss an Appeal
From a Staff Correspondent


ALBANY, April 2.--Further action
against the five Socialist Assent blymen
who were ousted from the lower House
Thursday. will be considered at con-
ference expected to take place here
next week
1t is proposed if evidence produced
IN the course Of the trial before the
rants it, to turn over this data to the
district attorneys Of New York, Kings
and Bronx counties, where the five
expelled Socialists reside, with the OBJ
Ject OF insttuting legal proceedings
against the five men on charges of
criminal anarchy.
The conference will be attended by
Attorney General Charles D. Newton,
members of the staff of counsel who
prosecuted the case in the Assembly
and representatives of the three dis
trict attorneys. The conference also
will attempt to determine if the Social
lst party has been involved to an ex-
tent where it can be shown that it has
engaged in conspiracy against the state
and national governments Should
this prove to be the case it is con-
templated to start court action against
the members of the party.
United States Inquiry Hinted
In one of the briefs submitted by
counsel for the state to the Judiciary
Committee it was charged that the
Socialist party has violated the espion-
age act. 1t is claimed that the Attor-
ney General has evidence in his pos
session which would tend to prove this
and that it may be placed at the dis
posal of the Federal government.
The Socialist party viii open its
court fight to annul the Assembly's ac-
ton in unseating the five Socialists by
asking the state Supreme Court to or
der the State Treasurer to pay the sal
aries Of the expelled Assemblvmen on
the ground that their expulsion was un-
constitutional and that they are still
therefore members of the Assembly.
his was announced yesterday bv S.
John Block, one of the attorneys for
added that in addition to askinr the
court to direct the State Treasurer to
pay the sa alaries, efforts will be made to
Obtain direct ruling on the constitu-
tlonality of the proceedings
we will make an effort said Mr..
Block, Ito get the court to say that the
oustlng Of the Socialist members of the
Assembly was unconstitutional. We do
not believe the court would have anv
power to order the reseating of the five
Assembymen. since there is no one
particular person to whom such an or
der could be addressed"

held at the Town hall in St. Johns

farmers being present. During the
meeting w. p. Russell of Kirby was
chosen a voting delegate to the meet
ing of the New England association
in Boston, Feb. 26 and = and E. II.

elected a special representative to the
same gathering. These officers were
elected: Pres, w. P. RUSSELL vice

E. B. Morrow of Boston, an organ
zer fsr the N. E. M. p. A, spoke
at the meeting and briefly discussed
the work of the organization, its
growth and its local problems He
said the purpose of the organization
was to secure fair price to the New
England farmer for his product, and
also to endeavor to work out more
satisfactory marketing system, so
that the consumer will also get his
milk at fair price. He said the
New England farmer has received
less than SO cents Of the consumers
dollar, which is hardly fair proper
ton considering that the farmer has
a great amount of money invested,
and takes all the chances. The rail-
roads, the middleman and the specu-
lator gets the rest. He said the New
England association which he repre-
sented had increased over 66 per cent
in membership the past year and now
10000 farmers are members.
