CUPERIOR FURNITURE. CARPETS,
- ETC., AT AUCTION.
Frostburg mining journal. [volume] (Frostburg, Md.) 1871-1913, 1884-11-29

has been noted this year. The re-
duction ordered in the Cumberland
district is likely to be agreed to with
out any hesitancy, and the tone Of
the remarks in the last b. & o. report
shows disposition to put the oper-
ators in this district in the most ad-
yantageous position to keep what
they deem their share of the trade.
With the new coalsin market, seek
ing for share in the business, every
one must suffer unless spirit Of CO.
operation be engendered, but it may
take IS heavy a seige as the anthra-
cite operators went through five
years ago, to bring forth such a
spirit.-Coal Trade Journal.
The event of the week has been the
posting of notices by the Cumberland
operators that after the 1st of Decem-
Der wages are to be reduced in that
region from so to 40 cents a ton.
The movement, which 1t is not be-
lieved will be resisted, is simply ono
growing out of the necessity of equal
izing the wages in the Cumberland
district with those for long time
ruling IN other competing fields.
The announcement has had no effect
whatever on the coal market, which
remains dull and lifeless.
Philadelphia.-The same reports
are made this week rs to bituminous.
The Cumberland region has been re-
duced 20 per cent. making 40 cents
ton. This brings the two regions
apparently on . par, but in reality it
gives Cumberland operators a little
more margin. Our operators are
not disposed to make any further re-
auctions.
Boston.-There is nothing to cause
q movement in bituminous coal.
Manufacturing business is too dull
to cause any earlier stir in that d.
rection than usual. Outside of tran
sient weekly sales, we learn Of no
buaness.-Englneering and Mining
Journal.
Frostburg mining journal. [volume] (Frostburg, Md.) 1871-1913, 1884-11-29
Eustern TieaDs of the Coai Trade.

Neg York.--The bituminous coal
market. a. usual, is overstocked. and
prices no better for producers than
previously, but the sales have been
reported as fair in amount. The
wages OF tho miners in the Cumber-
land district have been reduced to 40
cents ton. We also learn from the
sams source that the annual report Of
the B. & 0. r. R. for the year ending
with September, shows an increased
coal business of some 716,938 tons,
hauled at = greatly reduced rate-as
compared with the preceding year.
During 1879, the two districts of
Cumberland and Clearfeld did a
total tonnage of but 100000 tons.
This year they will do something like
100000 tons.-Mining Record.
In soft coal one hears of very little
change, either in demand or IN the
matter of price. Beyond doubt there
is . great deal of coal being placed,
a. the mining reports show, and it is
making Roadway in the territory
formerly thought to be exclusively
anthracite for steam uses. We may
expect even more of this next season
if the low price asked for bltuminous
is to continue. Judging from the
evidence already in hand, we are
to have at least one more year of low
prices and we shall also have more
earnest competition for trade than
