competition, and that the carriers of
this coal must accept the inevitable
conclusien that the day of high
freight rates is passed. At this juno
ture, it becomes of interest to antioi-
pate what course will be adopted by
the Chesapeake and Ohio canal COM
psny. The confidence with which
those in charge of that work started
out at the frst of the season with un-
necessarily high charges must soon
give place, if all signs do not fail, to
serious doubts az to whether the
work can survive the present and
coming competition. 1t is clear, at
this time, that important reductions
must be made in the cost Of transport
ing coal via this outlet.
The Cumberland district seems to
be in the least favorable position of
any of the competing interests in the
existing and coming strife for trade.
With the Pennsylvania railroad on
the north and the Chesapeake g. Ohio
railroad on the south, fully awake to
the demands and necessities of the
trade and reaching more favored
points at tide.water than either the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad or the
Chesapeake & Ohio canal, it would
appear that, without some heroic
action on the part Of the carriers
from that district, it's business must
continue to decline. Already the
Delaware River, Now York Hsrbor,
the Hudson River, and three fourths
ofNew England have been appropriat-
ed by other districts, and the pre-.
vsiling competition is closely con.
testing the limited area to which the
trade of this region is now restricted.
BosToN.-Ths event Of the week
in bituminous circles has been the
placing of the Boston & Maine con-
tract for 1000 tons in two equal lots
to the Consolidation coal company
and the Elk Garden coal company,
both Cumberland Goals. As for the
price, it can only be said that some
very low bids did not take the con-
tract. This ends the railroad busi-
ness for the year.-N. Y. Coal.

Aft.r the foregoing remarks were

Coal was received, The following
paragraph, clipped from lis editorial
page, is reproduced as a significant
addenduna
Our market reports show the critical
position OF the Cumberland region. The
policy of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
has all but destroyed the trade of this
district, and had not the foresight and en-
ergy of the managers ofthe Maryland coal
company provided second outlet by the
construction of the Georges Greek and
Cumberland railroad, connecting with both
the canal and the Penns; lvania railroad,
this magnificent field would to-day be al
most out of the market by reason of the
more enlightened policy of the Pennsyl-
yania railroad. 1t is certain that the
Chesapeake and Ohio canal and the Bslti-
more and Ohio railroad must make radi-
cal change in policy and "meet the market"
in reduced freights, or the companies de-
pending on these outlets to market will be
obliged to suspend operations.

City Tie,vs of the Coat Trade.

New YoRK.-Bituminous Goals drag
along very quietly; there is perfect
stsgnation with many of the operators
and dealers. Parties having contracts
to fill are getting them for ward in
good shape, so as to avoid the advance
in freights that is expe,ted later in
the season, when an active trade in
anthracite must naturally take place,
and have its effect upon the freight
market. A contract for fifty thousand
tons was given out las Friday, in
Boston; coal comes IRON Cumberland
region. Constant rrmors have pre-
vailed as TO cutting in the tolls on
the leading roads, but nothing iangi-
BILE can be gathered upon this topic
the fact remains, however, that sales
have been recorded and deliveries
are being made thereon, at figures
that will not give the full toll sheets
as published in March. Transient
trade does not amcunt to any thing at
present. In spite of all dizziness re.
corded the tonnage keeps up fairly
ahead of last season.-Coal Trade
Journal.
In bituminous there is little cur
rent business doing, although the week
has witnessed the award of the ast con-
tract of Importance in New England,
the Boston & Maine purchase of fifty
thousand tons having been divided
between the Consolidation coal CON-
pany and the Elk Garden district
1t is reported that the price made
was an extremely low one, as low as
to Justify the report that has bsen for
some time current that the Baltimore
& Ohio railroad has finally recogniz-
ed the necessity of cut, private or
otherwise, in its rates. 1t is evident
that the future of the bituminous in

Gen. Grant on Lincoln.
from the N. Y. World

EFrom the n. Y. World.l
In the Rev. DR.. Newman's Church,
corner Of Forty-ffth Street and Madison
Avenue last evening, Mr.. Schuyler Col
fax delivered his lecture upon the life
and character of Abraham Lincoln to q
very large and distinguished audience.
Gen. Grant presided, and with him up
on the platform were Rev. DR.. Newman,
Mr.. Frederick l.. Tallcott, Mr.. Henry
Havemeyer, Mr.. James r. Waterlow, Mr..
j. S. Long and Mr. J. E. Mastin. Gen.
Grant was received with great applause:
In introducing the lecturer he said:
Ladies and gentlemen: Ithas been
assigned to me to present the orator of
the evening, who will deliver lecture
upon the life and public services of our
late martyred President, Mr.. Lincoln.
1t was not my good fortune to have
known that eminent man in early days,
although we hailed from the same state,
were citizens of the same state at the
beginning of the great rebellion, yet [
never met him until 1864, when I was
called east to take command of the Army
Of the Potomac. I had heard very much
about Mr.. Lincoln, and all my preiu-
dices were In his favor. [ had heard
much about his fund of anecdote and
had heard many anecdotes attributed to
him which seemed to me rather coarse
to come from such asource. After COM
ing to the east [ saw great deal of him.
He seemed to love to spend his time
with the Army of the Potomac, and was
always at my headquarters when posi-
BILE, and [ never heard him talk serious
ly about anything that he did not illus
trate the strong point he wanted to make
by an anecdote, always appropriate, al
ways clear, always such that might
be repeated here, or In any society. It
Is my firm conviction that many of the
anecdotes that were attributed to Mr..
Lincoln were never uttered by him. All
that [ ever heard were illustrative Of
the point that he wanted to make clear,
and [ am told that this was his course
at the bar as lawyer. When he want
ed to make a strong point he illustrated
1t by an anecdote. l shall not repeat
any Of the anecdotes that were told to
me for my instruction, but as I came in
this evening / was handed note re-
minding me of circumstance that I did
not know before, or if I did, had forgot
ten, and which marks the appropriate
ness of the date fixed for hearing this
lecture. It is very near, only few days
after the anniversary of the death of
the great man of whose life and public
services you are to hear this evening,
and it is also the centennial anniversary
of the announcement by Washington to
his army of the recognition by Great
Britain of the independence of the col
onies. Ladies and gentlemen, [ have
now offered more remarks than I am in
the habit of making on my feet, for I
talk best when sitting; and I will pre-
sent to you the orator of the evening, a
gentleman who for four years was my
colleague as vice president while was
in office as president, the late vice pres
ident of the United States, Schuyler
Colfax." Applause.
