The Government has been asked to use the machinery of Its courts to- prevent the Colorado Coal Trust from making fur ther advances In the price of coal, and United States District Attorney Cranson feas been requested by Pueblo Typographi cal Union No. ITS to take action against the illegal coal company. Mr. Cranston would not discuss what action he will take In the matter as he has not received the official communication from Pueblo. There Is no doubt that he will be forced to take up the case and prosecute the coal barons under the Sherman anti-trust act. Coal has been advancing steadily for a year, with no advance in the wages of miners or railway freight tariffs. GASENE3 does not shrink or injure fabric fiber, color, skin.
