orators in tho United States. repre-
senting every bltuminous producing
district, met here today at the call OF
Col. ID. b. Wentz, president OF the Ma

telegram sent to the association last
week by Atty. -Gen. A. Mitchell
Palmer. The telegram urged that steps
be taken to eliminate texorbitant
prices for bituminous coal at the
mines.
That a resolution fayoring fair and
reasonable" prices, with only reasons
able profit for the operators, would be
supported was predicted by operators
previous to going into the conference
hall.
Prices already have dropped In
many places. Il was declared. J. l..

Wheat Prices
Ascend Suddenly

Chicago. Oct. 26.-wheat prices made
a sudden ascent today and trade au-
thoritles ascribed as one of the reasons
a falling off In offerings from the
southwest apparently due to the farm
ers' strike" An extreme advance OF
10 3-4c a bushel took place, December
delivery touching $40 Ia, as against
{l9e 1-2 to sl.s9 "a at yesterdays
finish.
The Strike" or stoppage OF selling
by farmers, was announced some time
ago by officials OF the United States
Wheat Growers association, as against
continued cutting down OF prices until
II was contended the financial returns
TO growers were below the cost of pro-
duction. Yesterday was the day set
for the strike to begin, but no marked
effects were noticeable until today.
The exceptional strength which de-
veloped in the market today was en-
coufaged to considerable extent also
by the fact that export buying on q
large scale was noted. II was esti-
mated that exporters had purchased
today 1,250,000 bushels OF American
wheat, and that Great Britain and
France were buying In India, where OF
late famine has been reported.
