shipments continue large and all the promi.
nent manufacturers seem TO have orders
which warrant the running OF their works 10
their full capacity. Everything points TO
substantial prosperity for the coke trade.
On account OF the heavy shipments to certain
points the railroads were recently compete ed

ceptible extent. OF the nine thousand ovens
in the region, but 746 are idle, ard most Of
these will, from present indications, be fred
up within the next weeks. Five weeks
ago there were 1916 idle ovens; GIG running
,hree.fourths full; 200 running half full; and
COG running one-fourth full. This would be
equivalent to 2l54 idle ovens. The com.
parison certainly warrants the prediction
above made"
