The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1871-03-02

The New York papers give the de-
tails Of the coal panic in that city aud
Brooklyn. Coal went up to sl2 aud
SIS per ton on Saturday last, aud there
was great excitement. not only in the
above uamed cities, but also in pater-
son, N, J. Philadelphia aud other
places.
The New York Express says Coal is
ily going up-the poor already are suffering
severely, and, il another week goes by with,
out relief what is now an excitement only
may run into a positive panic. The jour
malls, with entire uuanimity, demand, as a
measure Of partial rclie., that Congress at
once let in Nova Scotia coal by taking of
the duty.
Tho World says;-The present crisis is
from determination on the part Of monop-
olists to destroy the Miners Union in the
coal regions. The mining Of coal has been
actually prevented by the enormous freights
now charged by the railroad companies, and
these rates will continue until the miners
come to terms. How long the contest will
last il is difficult 70 say, but certainly all
eyes are turned to Congress awaiting thu
slgnal Of relief for thousands of suffering
moor.
