Tho Anthrno,,s Coal Trade.


Philadelphia Ledger 7th insti The an
thrscte coal trade continues in a very
healthy condition, Tbe collieries are work
ing full time, and the output s gradually
forging ahead oF the largo figures last year
belug now neatly a half million tons great
or, Yet with this heavy output the orders
for cnal in this market nre In advance ofthe
ability Of the operators to supply, aud tho
outlook lavufs a steady and remunerative
trade for all parties concerned for the re-
mainder Of the seHsUu, Stocks are light at
this port and vessels scarce, 80 tiiat freghts
70 Eastern ports have advanced witlilna few
days. At New York there is q reported cut.
ting Of rates 10 some extent below the figures
Of the August price lists. The Engineering
and Mining Journal, writing Of the New
York market, says; ave baye IL from a
good source that coal hiss been selling as
low ar June figures recently, aud that re-
Ia ilers are providing their consumers at
present nominal wholesale prices, free on
board. We do not claim that this Is done
10 any great extent, still the fact that such
things occurs shows In what a condition
the trade really is. Buyers can now get all
the coal they want at July prces,and prob.
ably can do better than that, and, as things
now look, need have NO fear Of the next two
or three weeks. Coal is sccumulating both
here New York hsrbor) and in the West,
where, we are told, stocks are heavy. 1t is
likely, therefore, that there will be more
pressure to sell than to buy"
In the bitum mlnous coal trade appearances
point to an early resumption OF work in the
Cumberland region, while the partial strike
in the Clesrheld region is practically broken.
The supply OF bituminous coal, at present
ample, being thus probably to be increased
and the dewand for 1t not being very strong

irregular, especially at New York. Tie
bituminous output for the Atlantic sea-
board is at present some 400 900 tons be.
hind that Of last year, but il is stated that q
good deal Of this has been made up in the
market by a consumption OF anthracite IN
uses TO which the softer Goals were formerly
de voted.
The total tonnage Of anthracite coal from,
all the regions for the week ending July 90
as reported by the several carrying compan'
les, amounted to 672.lg2 tens, against $685.
9O7 tons in the corresponding week lss'
year, an increase of 5,2S5 tons. The total
amount oi anthracite mined for the year is
l5,327 1895 tons, against 1881 ,s43 tons for
the same period last year, increase Of AIS,
1852 tons.
During the four days ending Aug2, there
were 64,545 tons Of coal shipped over the
