? COAL COMBINATION.

Pool of Operators and Railroad Companies
for the Regulation of Prices, Produc-
ton, Etc.
New YORK, Oct. 2.-OMcers Of all coal COM
panies and railroad companies signed an agree.
ment to-day to regulate the coal trade. The
agreement provides for restriction of produce
ton to the demand. A twe-thirds vote is
necessary to determine the time that mining
shall be suspended and the point to which the
tonnage shall be reduced. The decrease in the
output is to be decided between the companies
according to their business from October to
he time of restriction. Each company is per
mitted to sell its coal in any manner it pleases,
and to make its own prices, except that to ad-
vance prices.
4. It is provided also that the agreement shall
have been signed by all the companies on or
before October 10th. If perfected it is to con-
tinue in force three and q half years. The
principal feature Of the compact is the re-
striction of tonnage. Any company which has
accumulated surplus of coal may call q
meeting of companies, and if those are unwill-
ing or unable to take the surplus the com pany
may then demand restriction of production
until its surplus has been exhaused. If the
companies refuse this demand the COMPANY
has no relief except to sell its coal at any
price it pleases. Penalties for violation of the
agreement are prescribed. The prices are left
to be governed by the demand and public sales
may be made. To be effective It needs now
the consent of the Lehigh Valley and Pennsyl-
vania railroad companies.

It seems that Riddle and Williams had some
some important revelations. Riddle has been

York, disposed of his other effects here, and
completed preparations for beginning bust

ARREARS OF PENSIONS.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-Arrears of pensions
claims, to the amount of $20,734, 5O7, have
been settled up to Oct. LIST. The average
amount of arrears in each case settled is $545:
Whole number of cases settled in September,
13.2S7. It is estimated there are still about
5000 or 1000 pensioners entitled to arrears,
whose cases have not been settled. Settlements
hereafter cannot be made as rapidly as hereto
fore, because of the great number of cases in
which there is no title to arrears, which must
be examined in the search for those in which
there is title. 1t is stated for the information
of all pensioners who believe themselves en-
titled to arrears, and who do not receive no
tice of settlement of their claims
either by allowance or rejection, by
q settlement by writing letter to the Office,
giving again the number of their pension GER
tificate and their present postoffice address. It
is almost certain that the $25, 900 600 app1opri-
ated will be sufficient to cover arrears, which
was due upon pensions allowed previous to
January Is, 1879.
The following is the coinage of United States
minis for September: Gold, 1873, 532 pieces:
value S1S ,2l0; silver, $50 pieces, value
