OF THE COAL CONDENSATION.
The impression among coal men yesterday
was that there was little probability OF extending the
Coal Combination beyond January l. and that after that
lime there would be a hercer coal than has
yet been known. The decline in the price
of coal at the recent sale Of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Company has caused
other companies the prices, tae PENNSYLVANIA
Coal Company leading the movement. Tine prices OF all
grades of coal compared with those OF October and OF
the recent sale, are az follows:
