COAL MINING.

SEMI SUSPENSION OF PRODUCTION IN THE
PENNSYLVANIA ANTHRACITE FIELD
PLANS OF THE COMBINED CORPORATIONS
To KEEP UP PRICES.
A Wllkesbsrre special says: The sum-
mer programme of the great coal combina-
ton went into operation to-day; there is
general suspension of prod uction through
out the entire anthracite cOalfield. 1t has
been determined to run the mines only on
half time until August, work being carried
on each alternative week for the next eight
weeks. This plan will have the tendency
to strengthen the market for coal, and also
checkmste the little game which dealers
have tried to play upon the combination,
that is an effort to bring about reduction
in the price of coal from first hands by
neglectiDg to make their purchases early il
the season. The plan has failed to work
satisfactorily to the parties most inter-
esi ed, and the combination fully
meets the absence of demand
by promptly abstaining from production
for a period OF four weeks. There is lit
tie something more in this summer pro-
grsmme, which is intended especially for
the instruction of the coal dealers who
have dared mildly to protest against
portion OF the policy OF the combination.
1t bas all along been understood that the
rates for coal are 10 be advanced each
prices shall be uniform with those which
prevailed during last year. The increase
was fixed a. five cents per ton, common
cling in March; but in view of the present
condition OF affairs it is rumored that the
rates will be raised about ten cents more q
ton, or say fifteen cents q ton in all, for
June aud July, with the probability of q
higher figure az the opening of August.
This advance will be something like pun
ishment for those dealers who have thus
far been backward in making purchases
under an idea that they could buy cheaper
after little waiting, and thoss others who
have csnce,ed their spring contracts from
similarly erroneous impression. The
most mistaken men In any community are
those who believe that the object Of the
great coal combination is to give the
people cheap fuel. The real aim OF the or
ganization is to regulate the trade, keep up
prices and increase the profits of those who
compose the combination. In the mean
time the poor miners are waiting for work,
aud gradually coming down to everything
very nearly like starvation.

WRECK OF THE ORIENTAL.

HER PILOT RUNS HER HARD ON HARDING's
LEDGE IN BOSTON HARBOR IN FOG
DAMAGE TO VESSEL AND CARGO.
The Boston correspondent of the Now
York Herald says: The steamer Oriental,
Captain Dosne, OF the Savannah and Bos-
ton line, was wrecked in this harbor about
hslf-psst seven O'Clock last evening. The
vessel left Savannah oil Tuesday last, and
experienced heavy head winds as far
AS Cape Hstteras. On Saturday night last,
when near Gay Head, off Matthias Vine
yard, thick fog came on, and the steamer
remained at anchor there over night. Yes
terday morning the fog lifted, and the
steamer started for Boston, having clear
weather. On passing Cape Cod toward
evening the fog again settled over them,
and sui sequently became so dense that
navigation was almost impossible. The
steamer had its own pilot, aud he decided
to run up to the city, although 1t was inn
possible to see anything ahead. About
half-past seven P. NJ. the steamer struck on
Haroing's Lsdge, about three miles out
from Boston Light, and Immediately
bilged. The fishing schooner Omega,
Captain Morton,
BOUND FROM CoHAssET TO BOSTON,
happened to be in the immediate vicinity,
and, noticing the disaster, at once pro-
ceeded to rescue the passengers. The latter
were twenty in number, and with their
baggage were transferred in safety to the
schooner, the crew of which rendered all
the assistance in their power, and then the
schooner sailed for Boston. arriving at the
wharf at about one O'Clock this morning
Word was Immediately sent TO the under
writers boat, Charles Pearson, but DO one
on board could be reused, and finally two
other tugbosts were found and despatched
to the scene of the wreck to save as much
as possible of the cargo and bring off the
crew who had been left behind. The
Oriental is q large vessel, and had full
cargo of general merchandise consigned TO
F. Nickerson 81 Co. The steamer Is lying
easy on rocks, full OF water, with her stern
submerged, but her bow and the forward
part of the vessel out of water. Nothing
can be done until her bottom is examined
by diver and part OF her cargo dis
charged. There is no appearance OF strain
on her deck, but her starbosrd side is bent
very slightly. With favorable weather
she will probably be saved. The cargo
was mostly covered by insurance, but to
what extent is not at present known. The
vessel is only partially insured. The
Boyleston China, Washington, Neptune
and other offices in Boston have risks on
the properly. The cotton on board is
valued az about $4,000. the cargo will
be more or less damaged.

DETECTIVE REPORTER.
The reporter first made a visit to No. IA
Park place to get glimpse OF the Office of
A. E. A Hen & Co. 1t covers the first story
of the building and is divided into depart
ments labelled manager" "Csshier,"
Secretary" ETC., and to the rustic eye
might give aD impressive appearance of
business. After leaving he was satisfied
of its status and called on Capt. Saunders,
of the Twenty-seventh precinct and handed
him the circular. The captain plsc the
matter in the hands OF Detective Mulvey,
who proceeded to work it up. A mild look
ing friend of the detective visited the office,
taking with him the circular and $40 TO
draw the 500 prize. The detective waited
outside, and in a few moments his friend
returaed with the deed of lot In Rowen
county, Kentucky, for which he paid the
$40. The deed was given "for and in con-
sideration of the sum of 5000" and was
signed f. W. Wood, president aud trustee
OF the Queen City Land and Building Com
psDy, which, according to circular, is
duly Incorporated somewhere in the state
of Kentucky. The detective then went in
and arrested the man who took the money
and brought him to the station, where he
was locked up on a charge otviolating the
lottery law. He gave his name as VIM. II
Eveletb, and stated he was only acting for
Allen & Co., and knew very little
of their business. He knew enough,
however, to take the $40 and hand over
the 5000 prize y in the shape Of an Hlum-
mated deed for certain real estate therein
described. The document is dated De-
cember 2, 1875, and has been waiting for
the lucky winner ever since. There is no
doubt the whole concern Is a humbug.

to Sl37 900, are

ate.
Work on the Narrow Gauge is pro.

end, near Wellston, the work is also GO

other feature, in part of the township at
least, was the closing up of some of the
roads by the snow drifting In places
the people had to go through the fields,
az the roads were impossible on account
OF the large quantities of snow. The
