IT affords us pleasure to lay before
our readers a statement of Mr.. J.
George Repplier, president of the
Hampshire and Baltimore coal COM
pany, accompanying his annual re-
port to the stockholders. This pleas
urs is enhanced by the fact that an
admission is made OF peculiar interest
to this community. We refer to the
acknowledgment of "loss of long Gus
tomary overweight from miners" Ii;
is refreshing to know that an admis-
sion 80 frank has at last been made
by high authority in coal matters. AS
far ~ we know it has never before
been officially conceded that compan-
les had ever obtained more weight
than they were entitled to, and the
single matter of regret about it now
is that the Legislative enactme 1T,
by which the system was abolished,
seems to be deprecated.
The custom referred to was either
right or wrong In order to deter
mine which, all that is necessary is to
apply it as a system to any other
business and follow it out. No doubt
the merchant and farmer would each
like to enjoy the protection from in
cidental losses which it affords, but
the resources for recovery of such
consequential damages have never
been, and never can be, open to them
without unsettling overy known rule
of commercial interchange.
Its operation upon the miner had
the effect to compel him while at
work IN the mine to deliver a ton of
coal at tide uater =; in other words, to
contribute in laJor sufficient to indem-
nifty the company for pre-suppcsed
losses On coal in transit. The theory
is wholly untenable and could hardly
have obtained countenance in any
other business.
In the matter of delivery the miners
part of the contract ends at tn mine
scales. If ne has cent out an accept
able car of coal he is entitled to pay
for precisely the weight Of coal in the
car. Indeed, we cannot imagine
condition Of things which would carry
his responsibility farther Yet he
has been held to furnish supplement-
airy weight to supply whatever was
lost in transit. AS we'll might the
company require him to give still
more weight to cover such contingent
cies as losses by "freshets;" still more
for mortgage deficits" and more for
bad debts through sales of coal"
1t is pleasing, however, to remem-
Der that in majority of instances the
resident managers of coal interests
rejoice as much at the stoppage Of
overweight "by legislative enactment"
as the miners themselves. They af-
firm that in market they stand upon
more equal footing. Formerly t e
company which secured most extra
weight could underbid their less for
tunate competitors, and gain other il
legitimate advantages which tended
to smbarass, demoralize and degrade
the trade. The whole region-oper-
ators. miners and business men-suf-
fered in loss of morale and healthy
business integrity, and the real value of
a standard coal was appreciated by
the unstable, capricious basis upon
which it seemed to rest.
Now that the pernicious practice
has been laid away, it is to be hoped,
