Coal Region.
NEW YORK, Ang. 29.-The great coal sale
took place this noon. The square was COM
pfeteiy blocked with coal spectators. BUYERS
from all parts of the country were present. In
tense excitement reigDed in the neighborhooJ
and wagon trucks and windows were filled
with spectators, while the actual buyers were
congregated in dense masses around the auc-
toneers stand. The latter read the conditions
of the sale and announced that it was perfectly
bona fide and that no reservation was to be put
on goods offered for sale. Ee said there were
four companies represented in the sale, but
they we're not combined in any way and no eff
fort would be made by them TO keep the mar
ket up. The buyers could bid and rest assured
that their own judgment was all they had to
contend with.
The sale was begun with 10000 tons of
Lackawanna coal put up by the Delaware &
Hudson Canal Go. 5000 tons of steamboat coal
was first disposed of, from So IS to So; 40, 900
tons of CRATE. from $500 to So so; %, 900 tons
egg, from So 124 to So 25, and 40, 900 tons of
stove, So 80 and $3.50 The 10000 tons offered
by the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Co.
was next put up. The steamboat coal sold at
$40 TO $3.50; $4,000 tons CRATE. from So GIL to
80 50; $4,000 tous egg coal at 1915 and 80 80;
40, 900 tons stove at SO 55 to So 65, and 10, 900
tons chestnut coal at ~ 70 and $2.75.
PoTTsvILLE, Pa, Aug. 29-The prices real
lied by the auction sale of coal IN New York
were aDxlously looked for by all engaged in
the coal trade Much surprise acd alarm was
shown as the prices We're buletined, the gener-
al expectation being that the sale would be ad.
journed if 49, per ton as the lowest figure
could not be obtained Coal operators say that
the prices brought will compel them all to sus-
pend operations, unless tolls and labor can be
