"With so large a deficit in the market OF anthra-
cite we thnK the price can be kept at about s275

hand TO meet sales. It will take about 100000 tons
Of anthracite per week for the balance OF the season
TO make up the quantity OF anthracite sent to market
last year, and If any further interruption should
it will fall short; therefore purchasers need
not hesitate in purchasing COAL because the differ
in price Will be but slight during the season

balanced by increased coastwise freighJs."
