the dealers that few If any intended

purpose Of discussing coal prices.
One dealer remarked this afternoon
that it was no use to try to lock the
stable now, because the horse has
been gone a long time. He meant
by this that there was no need OF
trying TO regulate prices of anthra-

cite coal in the city. He said last
July was the time the chamber
should have gotten on tho job and
taken cognizance Of the coal situa-
