Eastern TieaUs of the Coal Trade

New York.-Of bituminous Goals
it is evident that consumers are re-
sorting to them more heavily for
steam fuel than ever before, and yet
prices continue to fall, and at lower
prices than ever before known.-Min-
ing Record.
Bituminous coal is in that con-
dition so often noted, where the re-
cording Of large tonnage accounts is
offset by the report Of extremely low
prices. There probably has never
been season when soft coal was so
abundant and so cheap. 1t is
enough to turn one green with envy
to tell them that only few short
years ago, $3.50 on board at the At
lantic coast points was considered n
low price. Competition for trade has
changed all this, and now the rivalry
which exists between the operators in
one district, and each district with
the other, is so great that So at New
York, and $3.50 per ton at Boston, is
an everyday occurrence. This state
of affairs does not seem to be confined
to the collieries supplying the sea-
board trade, but one finds steam coal
selling at $3.50 at Chicago, as an
average; 1926 at Buffalo So at New
Orleans; something less than $1.75
at Pittsburgh, and 80 1t goes all
through the list. 1t is splendid
thing for manufacturers to be able. to
buy their fuel so cheap, but at the
same time the miners and carriers of
coal sold at such figures do not find
heavy balances left over with which
to purchase new machinery or goods
of any kind or descriptisn.-Coal
Trade Journal.
There are no features in this trade,
the tonnage continuing heavy while
prices are still low.
PMladelphia.-It is impossible to
get any thing from the bituminous
operators. They claim that next
year they will double their surplus
figures. but will not be able to shade
prices any, and will have to rely for
an increasing market upon the pref
erence of buyers. They expected
also to have more favorable freight
rates, by which they will be enabled
to reach Eastern markets i'll a rela-
lively better shape. A great deal of
bituminous territory will be in a
condition for development. But
the probability of moderate demand
stands in the way Of the opening of
mines or the building of side tracks.
The Cumberland people represent
ed here talk big of what they will do
next year in the way of crowdin g
their coal on to Eastern markets;
but the obstacles due to railroad
controlling influences will cripple
them in that direction.
Boston.-In the bituminous branch
of the market, this port has nothing
new to offer. Dealers have been able
to devote all the time to politics
that they wished. Contract deliver
les constitute the only movement.
Delivered prices have been advanced
little by the advance in freights,
and from $500 to 1915 is now quot
