A report that The combination of the coal COM
panies was being ignored and prices cut was the
cause OF the decline in the shares of the coal
roads. To-day President Sloan, OF the Delaware,
Lackawanna & Western, pronoUnces the report
false, SAYS the companies are working har-
monlously and that he knows of no cutting OF
rates. The fact that the anthracite coal prOdUc-
ton has been about 100000 tons, or 10 per
cent. more since the beginning of the year than
during the same time last year, and that stocks
are large and the demand light has caused the
app-ehensiuns Of rate cutting, which so far as
now have not been realized, yet the Philadelphia
/ Reading, Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
and Pennsylvania companies say they are dis
posing OF their full production and are in favor
of continuing production at full time, but it is
understood that the other companies are in favor
of curtsLirg the production. The pool IN
