Curious Criminal Statistics.

Some interesting lacts may be deduced
from the statistics OF crime published by
the Baltimore Gazette. for the year 1872
The most obvious is the stable ratio main
tanned between the criminals sDd the po
pulation. Thus. az To the suspicious

After that it declines again. Wiiebeat

New York Post says that similar observa

it really seems that the weather furnishes

generally been supposed Mr.. Clarence

Sierra Nevada" has declared his belief
that the peculiarities OF the western tenn
permanent are largely owing TO the spark
ling aud exuberant atmosphere OF the
region, and such statistics as those given
above seem to warrant the correctness of
his observations The same law holds

COAL MATTERS.
A Great Combination in Schuylkill.

y
The Philadelphia correspondent of the
New York Tribune, under date of the Sth
Instant, makes the following statements
L have just learned particulars of the
inception of one of the most extensive
combinations of the period The Phils
delphia u Reading Railroad Company
procured, last session. an act authorizing
The Reading Coal Il lrou Company (Which
is only another name for themseIves) to
own and work coal mines aud lands.
During the past year the latter com
pany expended under this charter 500.

sequently own or have dominant in
terst over mines producing 200, 900
TONS per annum Desiring To control all
the coal trade of the region. the company
have proposed TO the owners of the re
manning colleries which produce 3.2i2.
600 tons to join with them, and receive
certain SUN per ton for their coal The
acceptance of this arrangement would, it
is obvious, give the Reading Coal & Iron
Company full control over the sale OF B..
942 900 tons of coal. the entire product
of the SchuylkiIl region.
The independent owners Of colieries
(proiucing the 3,242 900 tons) have de
clared that they will not assent to the
market their coal themselves. They are
raising fluids, aud are determined to give
a stubborn resistance to the propnsed
combination But the Reading Coal d
from Company and its double railroad
threaten to coerce them both hy raising
the cost of transportation aud Offering the
numerous vexatious obstacles which "a
corporation of the extent aud rami6ca
tions of the Reading Company can com-
mand. The sympathy OF Philadelphia,
as we'll as OF the trade generally, is un
mistakabIy with the opposing colliery
nwners A meeting of the leaders 10 the
Reading Company was held on Saturday.
and another will be held next Friday
The proposed measure of the Reading
still more extraordinary combination
1t is contemplated, if it succeeds, that the
Pennsylvania Coal Company, the Della
ware Il Hudson Canal Company, the
Delaware. Lackawanna & Western Con-
pany shall all unite with the Ph -ladel phia
& Reading Company, and decide upon a
uniform price Tor all the coal they own
or eoufr,l; that it is virtually the entire
product Of the anthracite regions Of Penn
-,lvania, for this combination expect to
be able to coerce every coliiery owner in
the state to come to their terms.
If the new Syndicate succeeds it is
proposed to make the price of coal 81 15
in April ascending to s5 so in October
sums considerably more than the average
oi last year, aud nearly 81 per ton higher
than the price in April, 1872 This
movement, affecting about $4,000 900
tons Of coal, has caused the greatest
alarm among the manufacturers, who
understand its import. and will soon be
the theme of general discussion.
